The top story this past week has been the imminent release of the list containing prominent names that had flown on billionaire sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein’s “Lolita Express.” Because our state controlled media has zero interest in this story, it is unclear just how many of them visited Epstein’s “Lolita Island.”

I’m still not sure if we’ve seen the official “list.” The ones I’ve seen have included many of the biggest names in the entertainment world, including a shocking number of female celebrities. You’d think that Oprah would have enough money to forego toiling as a groomer for all those salivating men. She doesn’t seem to have a high opinion of the less fair sex. And Angelina Jolie should be busy with her duties as the most inexplicable member of the Council on Foreign Relations. While researching Survival of the Richest, I wrote the CFR, asking them what the qualifications were to be a member. I certainly had Jolie, whose connection to “foreign relations” is unknown, in mind here. They responded by sending me a membership application.

An entertaining aside to all this was NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers mentioning the list on an ESPN podcast, and singling out lame talk show host Jimmy Kimmel. Kimmel angrily threatened to sue Rodgers, who is becoming the closest thing the sports world has ever seen to a real “conspiracy theorist.” He claimed that Rodgers was placing his family in danger. Well, if Kimmel really was on an island with a bunch of underage girls being forced to satisfy adult men, then his reputation should be in danger. I don’t think he’s married, but if so that would certainly raise the specter of divorce. Kimmel’s name was on the Epstein list I saw. Incidentally, Kimmel’s former girlfriend, vulgar comedian Sarah Silverman, was also on the list. Some couples go to the movies or dinner. Some go to Lolita Island.

We have heard rumors that there is a John Doe 307 or something. Was it Bill Clinton? Do sex tapes including Clinton, Donald Trump, and One Percenter Richard Branson exist? Not with each other, of course. With assorted girls that are legally too young to consent. I imagine that those behind bars who were convicted of statutory rape for having sex with their sixteen year old girlfriend, when they were eighteen, are probably smoldering over the injustice of it. They never got to go to Lolita Island. They just became smitten with a younger high school classmate. It seems wrong to have some who had sex with underage girls imprisoned, while others had their cake and ate it, too. It’s an age of consent thing, you wouldn’t understand.

One of those on the list is actor Kevin Spacey. Not sure if he’s “out” or not, but Spacey is widely acknowledged to be gay. This may explain why he has been accused of sexual assault by more than thirty different males. He’s kind of the Hollywood version of NFL quarterback Deshaun Watson. While Watson was accused of sexually assaulting or harassing multiple females at massage parlors, at least some of Spacey’s accusers were underage boys. Demonstrating that their courts are as bad as ours, a jury in London acquitted Spacey of nine counts of sexual charges against four men. Showcasing what fame and entitlement mean in this world, a New York jury topped that by awarding Spacey $40 million in a civil lawsuit against one of his accusers.

Spacey is in a unique category. Evidently, at least three of Spacey’s accusers have left this mortal coil. He has his own fledgling Body Count. Ari Behn, a Norwegian author married to a princess, supposedly killed himself on Christmas Day 2019, two years after belatedly claiming Spacey had groped him against his will. This came the day after Spacey’s extremely creepy Christmas Eve video, where he suggested, in dealing with those you don’t like, “kill them with kindness.” Earlier in 2019, another accuser was hit by a car and killed. Yet another died of unknown causes two months before Behn. Spacey broke down in tears in court upon being acquitted. He is an actor after all. But what was there to attract the attention of Spacey on Lolita Island? Lolitas, after all, are underage girls, not boys. Maybe Epstein stocked some little Lolitos.

Just looking at Spacey’s history on this issue, what chance is there for anyone accusing the likes of Clinton, or Trump, or Prince Andrew, of sexual crimes? They’d be fortunate to escape the fate of those Kevin Spacey accusers. The Clintons still have the most impressive Body Count. They’re like the Beatles of Body Counts. They sure aren’t going to convict a member of British royalty for anything. Maybe all the attention will be funneled to Trumpenstein, who may garner yet another fake conviction. I don’t think Trump, or anyone else, is going to be sent to prison over any Lolita crimes. If there are any token convictions, they will probably be discreetly flown to Epstein’s island, where he may well still be trafficking underage girls.

For those that don’t know, the term Lolita comes from Vladimir Nabokov’s 1955 novel Lolita. It describes the obsession an older man feels for a nubile young girl. The term for this kind of sexual attraction is not pedophilia, which is a sexual attraction to prepubescent children, but hebephilia, an attraction to teenagers. It was made into a 1962 film starring James Mason and Shelley Winters, directed by the legendary Stanley Kubrick. Sue Lyon played Lolita, and was fourteen at the time. Such a movie could not be made today. Unless, of course, Lolita was a male “transgender” pretending to be a female. Then he/she/it could be twelve, or ten, or two. They’ve all but waived the age of consent for transgenders. Transgender sex at any age is cool!

The civil libertarian in me urges caution here. It is perfectly possible that some, if not many, of those on the Epstein list might have just gone for a ride on his plane. Thought it was cool to hobnob with a billionaire. If I was a young actor, and some billionaire surrounded by beautiful young girls invited me on his private jet, I can’t be confident I could refuse. Regardless of how many celebrities actually went to Lolita Island and had sex with underage girls, which in the non-celebrity world is ipso facto statutory rape- no one will be prosecuted, let alone convicted, unless the elite want to sacrifice them. Rock stars, athletes, and actors have been having unpunished sex with minors for a very, very long time. The exiled Roman Polanski allegedly raped a thirteen year old girl in 1978. He was given a standing ovation at the 2003 Oscars.

What exactly was happening on Epstein’s island? Was adrenochrome served to the guests? Were there truly prepubescent little girls and boys there, provided to the famous pedophiles? Were any of the girls there because they wanted to be? Were any of them killed, to satisfy the sickest of urges these parasites possess? Snuff films are all too real, and obviously the turnover rate for those “starring” in them is very high. Was “spirit cooking” going on in the kitchen? Were there cameras catching the famous visitors in flagrante with their illegal conquests? Was this kind of a year-round version of the all-male festivities at Bohemian Grove?

Virginia Giuffre is a bold woman. She’s the blonde teenager in the famous photo, standing next to Prince Andrew and Epstein’s now imprisoned bottom bitch Ghislaine Maxwell. Prince Andrew reached a settlement with Giuffre in February, 2022. Giuffre was labeled as “a money hungry sex kitten.” Giuffre had settled a previous lawsuit against Ghislaine Maxwell in 2017. Giuffre’s father, interestingly enough, once worked as a maintenance manager at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago property. Giuffre also accused high profile lawyer Alan Dershowitz of rape, to which he reacted by alleging perhaps Giuffre should be charged with rape, as she supposedly brought an underage friend to Epstein Island when she herself was a legal adult.

Epstein’s August 10, 2019 death in prison, as he was awaiting trial, was basically scoffed at by the whole world. Even The New York Times appeared skeptical of his “suicide.” And The New York Times is not known to be skeptical about many things. Unless you’re a “conspiracy theorist.” They are very skeptical of “conspiracy theorists.” Epstein had been found with neck injuries on July 23. Although he claimed to have been attacked, the authorities suspected a suicide attempt, and put him on suicide watch. Epstein’s original cellmate was a policeman suspected of murder. He would allege, after Epstein’s death, that he had been threatened by federal guards. Epstein’s last cellmate would die of “COVID” in November, 2020.

In February 2022, Jean-Luc Brunel, suspected of procuring underage girls for Epstein, was found hanged in a French prison. Brunel, an influential talent scout, was accused of sexual assault and rape by several top French models. Virginia Giuffre claimed Epstein had bragged that he’d slept with over a thousand of “Brunel’s girls.” Ghislaine Maxwell’s brother Ian Maxwell reacted by saying, “It’s really shocking. Another death by hanging in a high-security prison. My reaction is one of total shock and bewilderment.” Regarding his sister, he noted that his family “fears for her safety.” A twenty year old model, dubbed the “Russian Rapunzel,” plunged to her death from her Wall Street apartment in 2008, two years after being transported to Lolita Island. She was mentioned in the recently released, apparently voluminous Epstein documents.

Prison guards Tova Noel and Michael Thomas, admitted that they “willfully and knowingly” falsely filled out documents claiming that they had been checking Epstein’s cell as scheduled on the day he died. In actuality, they surfed the internet, and slept for at least two hours during their shift. Federal prosecutors sentenced them to one hundred hours of community service. Prosecutors laughably maintained that “the interests of justice” were being best served by a deferred prosecution. Epstein had also been incomprehensibly taken off suicide watch, when the authorities alleged that he’d just attempted suicide little more than two weeks earlier. The chief medical examiner and the U.S. Bureau of Prisons engaged in a comprehensive coverup of the case.

It’s fun to watch those who irrationally think the Democrats are the good guys, focus all their attention on Donald Trump. They would never believe any of their beloved celebrities could consort carnally with females (or males) not old enough to legally consent, but there is nothing they’d put past Trumpenstein. He is their Immanuel Goldstein, after all. They can picture him raping an entire kindergarten class. With his orange micro-penis, of course. Can’t leave that out. Republicans, meanwhile, are hoping that tape exists of Bill Clinton raping someone underage. He had at least three women over the agent of consent accuse him of rape, but no prosecutions resulted. They’re naively confident he’ll be less fortunate with statutory rape allegations.

Speaking of Clinton, the Epstein docs reportedly reveal that the always lovely Hillary Clinton sent a henchman to intimidate one of the witnesses. Well, that’s the sort of thing you do when you’re the co-chair of a powerful crime family. Witness Sarah Ransome claimed that her friend has videotape that clearly shows the faces of Clinton, Prince Andrew, and Richard Branson as they have sex with her. Ransome stated, “A couple months later, she was then approached, by Special Agents Forces….sent directly by Hillary Clinton herself…to protect her presidential campaign in 2008. They heavily intimidated her, ruffled her up (luckily she took photos as evidence) and was then forced to sign a confidentiality agreement which ensures that she can never come forward publicly implicating her husband.”

Ransome went on to note that “She was then given a substantial payout, directly from the Clinton Foundation to keep her quiet. She is 1000% certain that the FBI did a cover up and she has the individual names of Hillary’s Special Agent Officers involved in intimidating her. She was then forced against her will to sign a legally binding confidentially (sic) agreement on Hillary’s behalf for her eternal silence. If she breaks this agreement, she is dead.” The witness supposedly has the sex tapes backed up on “several USB sticks,” and has a kill switch in case something happens to her. Because, you know, in all these cases where no foul play is found by the authorities, “something happens” to a lot of witnesses. The witness also claimed she had consensual sex with Donald Trump at Epstein’s New York mansion “on regular occasions.”

If such sex tapes exist, I believe that they have as much chance of seeing the light of day as the tapes Seymour Hersh has been talking about for years, which supposedly show U.S. troops raping young Iraqi boys in front of their screaming mothers. Such footage alone would bring this bogus house of cards down. If anything can wake up the Sheeple, that would. I think. Not completely sure at this point that anything could open the eyes of those that have enabled such unprecedented corruption. Odds are such tapes would be hidden in some secluded spot, to be perhaps shown every New Year’s Eve, along with the lost Babushka Lady film of the JFK assassination, to new initiates into the Illuminati, or whatever they call it. I guess it beats being paddled.

Google maps, according to the conspiracy world, shows mass graves on Epstein’s island. The new unsealed documents supposedly disclose that Virginia Giuffre cleared Trump of any wrongdoing. She said she never saw him with minors, or at Epstein’s New York mansion. Jeffrey Epstein led a charmed life indeed. Hired as a math teacher by William Barr’s father at the private, progressive Dalton School. Without having a college degree. It is normally impossible to teach in any school without a college degree. But then it would seemingly be just as impossible to acquire a billion dollar fortune from teaching math. How and where did Epstein get his money? You can’t enter the lucrative world of sex trafficking without sufficient funds.

Already the usual suspects are crying that some, or all, of the names on the Epstein list have been photoshopped in there. By pesky “conspiracy theorists,” of course. In the age of CGI, it is very hard to prove that something is not fake. Unless it’s a picture of alleged Israeli victims of Hamas, or something. That couldn’t be photoshopped. If any celebrities bother to respond at all, they’ll simply claim “Hey, I just took a ride on Jeff’s plane. He seemed like a nice guy.” None will admit to ever being on Lolita Island. What do lonely Lolitas do? It’s odd for someone to set up a Lolita Island like that, and have no one ever come. Well, no one you ever heard of. They may track down a plumber from Pittsburgh or something and throw the book at him.

Jimmy Kimmel, for instance, is doubling down on his ridiculous attacks on Aaron Rodgers. Kimmel’s entire “act” consists of Democratic Party talking points. Without Donald Trump to childishly ridicule, this “comedian” would never have a monologue. Despite his name appearing on the published Epstein list, Kimmel insists it’s not. And demands that Aaron Rodgers apologize. For being right, I guess. This will be the norm here; simply dismiss all references to a list as “conspiracy theories.” What is the point of having a list, if everyone on it just says it’s “fake news?” Or doesn’t even acknowledge its existence? Ah, what the Trumpenstein project created.

Because all of the names on the list, assuming they are legitimate, represent the “Woke” Hollywood and Washington, D.C. establishments, it is impossible to imagine any part of our state controlled media asking the right questions. The only name they’ll be interested in is Donald Trump. Which, of course, leads us into yet another act of the Trumpenstein Project. Trump will claim any list with him on it is “fake,” and everyone else will claim the list is “fake” too, except for Trump’s name. He was a serial rapist. A bigly rapist. A Lolita destroyer. Even with that micro-penis. Bill Clinton, on the other hand, has nothing to worry about. Ask Juanita Broderick.

If you’re offered a ride on some dashing billionaire’s jet, think twice about it. Sure the gorgeous females he sends to escort you up the steps look enticing. No one would expect you to check their IDs. That kind of stuff is for the rubes. Let them worry about statutory rape. Not you. Some billionaires are extraordinarily generous. It’s not like you’re going to be asked for anything in return. It’s not like you might be recorded in compromising positions. But if you’re ever inclined to say Oswald didn’t do it, or that 9/11 was an inside job, or if you aspire to leading at least a semi-moral life someday, then remember the words from the old Twilight Zone episode. Don’t get on the ship.

The Founding Fathers made the Constitution palatable by including a Bill of Rights. Without the First 10 Amendments, the Constitution is just what its early critics, including Patrick Henry and Thomas Jefferson, said it was; a dangerous consolidation of power far less representative of liberty than the Articles of Confederation.

The First Amendment was always a huge concern with statists of every era. Those who thirst for power, and will compromise themselves in order to attain it, have never looked favorably upon those critical of them. John Adams, the second president of the United States, passed the Alien and Sedition Acts for just this reason. He bristled at criticism. Fortunately, Thomas Jefferson succeeded him in office and scrapped this tyrannical concept. But the notion reared itself again in 1860, with the election of Abraham Lincoln. Adams was a civil libertarian compared to Lincoln. “Honest” Abe didn’t pass any new Alien and Sedition Acts; he just shut down over two hundred newspapers that opposed any of his unconstitutional actions.

Woodrow Wilson revived these odious acts during World War I. Eugene Debs and others were imprisoned for opposing the pointless shedding of blood, and America’s participation in it. The Supreme Court, in perhaps its worst ruling ever, upheld Wilson’s right to jail antiwar protesters. Great “liberal” justice Oliver Wendell Holmes coined the phrase “yelling fire in a crowded theater” to justify such heinous oppression, placing an ugly asterisk on free speech. Apparently no concerned American asked at the time, just how protesting a war could be construed as yelling fire in a crowded theater. This expression gained great renown across the land, and is forever on the lips of those who seek to censor dissent.

Franklin Roosevelt built upon the actions of Wilson, who was inspired by the maniacal despot Lincoln. One of the countless unconstitutional agencies created under the New Deal, the Federal Communications Commission was in effect a national Alien and Sedition Act for the radio stations, and would go on to control content in Hollywood and on every television network. It banned selling advertising that discussed “controversial issues.” Vulgarity and “extremist” opinions were strictly forbidden. FDR pushed several inquisitions in Congress, most notably the one chaired by then Senator Hugo Black. You know, the former KKK member who went on to become a “liberal” Supreme Court justice and arbitrarily awarded the 1948 Senate election to “Landslide” Lyndon Johnson, who was the first to court the dead vote.

The Black Committee and other inquiries attempted to severely curtail the ability of journalists to criticize the New Deal. FDR himself is documented to have personally tried to ruin the careers of his political opponents. And all of this was years before the Pearl Harbor false flag. Once America entered the war, FDR went after draft evaders, and memorably incarcerated American citizens in concentration camps. Not just Japanese Americans, but German and Italian Americans, too. The Roosevelt administration also stole billions in personal property from these poor souls. Much as Lincoln had locked up any northern antiwar voices without any due process, FDR imprisoned those opposed to his war. In 1945, his successor Harry Truman had antiwar poet Ezra Pound arrested, and he spent a decade in a mental institution.

We must consider today’s “Woke” authoritarianism in its historical context. The precedents are all there. Cancel culture was born when Lincoln “canceled” his critics in the press, and threw thousands of uncharged citizens into makeshift prisons. Wilson followed this precedent, but FDR expanded it into a totalitarian art form. His administration “canceled” its critics in a variety of ways. FDR used J. Edgar Hoover to target some of them. His administration confiscated millions of telegrams to and from Roosevelt opponents. Long before Richard Nixon’s laughable efforts to use the IRS to monitor his critics, FDR had the fledgling agency audit almost everyone who opposed him. Indeed, FDR led a veritable crusade against free speech.

The Social Justice Warriors might look different. Tattooed. Pink or purple hair. Transitioned into countless new “genders.” Utterly addicted to name-calling. But they are the logical descendants of those who supported the Alien and Sedition Acts. Who threw citizens into jail that objected to our involvement in faraway wars. Who wanted to use the IRS, and the FBI, to “cancel” critics of the political elite. Not enough tried to stop this onerous censorship in 1860. Or 1918. Or 1939. And too few are trying to stop it now. The January 6 political prisoners are a testament to that, subjected to the cruel and unjust punishment explicitly prohibited by the Constitution, which was inflicted on northern “Copperheads” during the Civil War, and anarchists and “Reds” during World War I, and “Nazi sympathizers” during World War II.

The crazed adherents of Identity Politics are hardly the first to want to silence their critics. Get them fired from their job, and rendered unemployable. And increasingly, prosecuted for their Thought Crimes. Those opposing Lincoln’s mad war and suppression of civil liberties were the Thought Criminals of their time, long before Orwell gave a name to them. Everyone reading this little missive is a modern day Thought Criminal. There are millions of us. Is there room in their overcrowded prisons for all of us? As Lord Acton, the great lover of liberty who was friends with Robert E. Lee, not Ulysses S. Grant, reminded us; power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. Those in power in America 2.0 are absolutely corrupt.

How many of us truly believe in free speech? Almost everyone has a big “but,” to quote the late Pee Wee Herman. Sure, I’m for free speech but…not for “Holocaust denial.” Disbelievers in the Apollo moon landings. Or their even more extreme bedfellows, the flat earthers. Those who think mass shootings were a hoax, or “fake news.” White people outraged by the Great Replacement. Just referring to the Great Replacement can get you canceled, unless you’re supporting such a thing. Which all of our horrific leaders do. Try mentioning how the average American woman today weighs what the average American man did sixty years ago, and see what happens. There are a lot of caveats to the mainstream ideal of “free speech.”

The symbolic prosecutions, these figurative “fire in a crowded theater” abridgements of free speech, are in full swing. Alex Jones supposedly owes nearly a billion dollars to selective Sandy Hook parents. And now any mention of Sandy Hook is even more anathema to public discourse than the Great Replacement is. Jones also apologized for “Pizzagate.” Which was ridiculous; look at those disturbing pictures on Instagram, and the Podesta emails published by Wikileaks. If Donald Trump had paintings of children with freshly spanked bottoms on the walls of Mar-a-Lago, do you think it might be reacted to differently than it was in the case of Podesta’s brother? Now Rudy Giuliani owes almost $150 million to two particular “offended” election poll workers?

The only acknowledged exceptions to free speech at one point were overtly slanderous or libelous comments. This is understandable; people do have a right to protect their reputation. But it’s a slippery slope, and obviously applied in a wildly unfair manner. There’s a fine line between libel and justified criticism. Donald Trump, think whatever you want to think of him, has been the object of slander from numerous national figures. This includes physical and even death threats. But if Trump ever brought a slander suit against the Fake Media he rages against, it would be laughed out of every courtroom. Because it’s Trump, not because it isn’t slander. Obama, Clinton, Biden- they’d all be treated much more respectfully by this hopelessly corrupt, Tik Tok “justice” system of ours. Some slander is more equal than others.

But slander and libel have been supplanted now by the Orwellian term “hate speech.” Which has been accepted by almost everyone, even though the very term immediately destroys any concept of free speech. And now “disinformation” and “misinformation,” entirely subjective terms (like “hate speech”), are being bandied about as potential “crimes.” This is essentially what Jones and Trump are being prosecuted for; the notion that they are misleading others with speech that the State finds “offensive,” or “racist,” or “disinformation/misinformation.” Trump is being tried in court for contesting the results of an election. And for exaggerating the value of his assets. That doesn’t seem to worry most Americans. They need to remember that whole, “First they came for the Communists” thing. Don’t think they won’t come after you.

If we were really protected by the First Amendment, then there would be no possibility of being prosecuted for our views on an election. Or a virus. Or a vaccine. Or any historical event. Every opinion is protected under the First Amendment. Well, theoretically. If you say something “offensive” to any of the groups and individuals that are allowed to be perpetually “offended,” then you are now subject to a politicized prosecution. No one should want to go anywhere near one of our Orwellian courtrooms. They’re nearly as dangerous as hospitals. Thought Criminals, by definition, are not being pursued for their actions. They aren’t robbers. Or rapists. Or murderers. It’s a difficult task to prosecute the thoughts of others. But our authoritarian leaders are up to that task. And millions are complicit by their silence.

Today, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube ban, suspend and “cancel” those users who have unwelcome views. First Amendment be damned. As the “conservative” defenders of the cancel culture remind us, “They’re private companies! They have a right to ban people!” As I would respond, you mean like restaurants, for instance? So did business owners in the segregated south have a right to deny service to certain people? They don’t need a reason, right? After all, they’re private companies! What exactly is the difference between denying admission to a restaurant, or a store, or a neighborhood, on the basis of skin color, or on the basis of political philosophy? Or even simply wearing a MAGA hat? It’s a selective discrimination thing, you wouldn’t understand.

It isn’t easy being a true supporter of free speech, in a society that doesn’t value it. Where more people than not are fine with stipulations on it. “The First Amendment doesn’t protect hate speech,” their nauseating mouthpieces in our state controlled media will bleat, as effortlessly as they will bleat “Oswald killed Kennedy” or “Diversity is our Strength.” The word “hate” doesn’t appear anywhere in the Bill of Rights, or the Constitution itself. But there is no one there to counter them when they make these statements, which are disinformation if anything is. I’ll be waiting for someone, perhaps a member of the loyal “opposition,” to point that out. But fewer people have probably read the Constitution than have read the Bible.

I thought the internet was beyond their control. They let us have unfettered access to true diversity of thought for a few decades. But the social media conglomerates gave them their opening. FDR “canceled” the editors and radio commentators of his day. Now, the “Woke” leftists can get big tech to deny access to crucial internet platforms to those who write or say discouraging words. Many in the alt media cheered the de-platforming of Alex Jones. YouTube and Facebook are shells of their former selves. Many like me are “shadow banned.” They restrict our access to a larger audience. That’s one way to control the competition. FDR and Lincoln would have loved it. What they ideally want is an FCC to control internet content. Millions of Americans don’t believe in God. So they don’t value rights that the Founders said come from God.

The Right, though victimized by politicized prosecutions in America 2.0, hardly believe in true free speech. Witness their reaction to the mostly nonwhite students on college campuses, protesting Israel’s brutal retaliation against the Palestinians. At Harvard, these students were “doxxed,” just like so many right-wingers have been. Their names were published, and powerful Jewish businessmen tried to blacklist them from employment. Most conservatives, being Zionist defenders of Israel, applauded this particular “canceling” on campus. It was educational to watch the Ben Shapiros and Meghan Kellys of the world display such obvious hypocrisy. Everyone seems fine with suppressing some speech. Who supports all speech?

We are at war. I’m not referring to the continuous interventionism in other, smaller sovereign nations, which is the foundation of our disastrous “bipartisan” foreign policy. Our leaders are at odds with the concept of free speech. They hate it more than they supposedly hated any foreign bogeyman. I don’t know why they just don’t treat the Bill of Rights like a troublesome Confederate memorial, and remove it from the Constitution. All they’d have to do is declare it’s “racist,” and the majority of White people would start cucking and jiving. If sleep, and birds, and proper grammar, are “racist,” why not free speech? If you don’t have free speech, you don’t have a free country. No one to “hate us for our freedom.” Democracy isn’t threatened by any speech. But we are threatened by those who don’t believe in freedom of speech.

Maybe we can start up a new American Civil Liberties Union. One that is, you know, actually concerned about the protection of civil liberties. Civil liberties begins with free speech. If you can’t say what you want, it’s obvious you can’t do what you want. The mass arrests after the truly mostly peaceful January 6 protest demonstrated that we don’t have the right to peacefully assemble, as is guaranteed by the Bill of Rights. Well, some do. BLM, for instance. It’s not about protest, or speech, itself. It’s about what the speakers and protesters are speaking or protesting. Abridged speech is not free speech. If you don’t support speech you disagree with, you don’t support free speech. Some speech is not more equal than others.

I wrote a book a few years back, Bullyocracy: How the Social Hierarchy Enables Bullies to Rule Schools, Work Places and Society at Large. Despite initial enthusiastic feedback from many who’d been a victim of bullying, ultimately it has not sold well. I think that most people don’t want to face an ugly truth about themselves.

What I discovered, to my shock and disappointment, is that even the supposed anti- bullying activists and groups have no real interest in stopping it. None of them have paid the least bit of attention to the book, other than Gina Tron, a writer who was bullied as a youngster and wrote a glowing blurb for Bullyocracy. My book did have the unfortunate sense of timing to be released just at the COVID narrative was being introduced to the world. So it did get kind of lost in the shuffle.

With the schools subsequently shutting down, which included cancelling all those extracurricular activities that help drive the social hierarchy and enable bullying, and the insane transgender agenda becoming front and center in every school, the traditional pecking order may have been eradicated. For all I know, the popular crowd at the local high school may now consist of those kids who’ve swallowed the propaganda to such an extent they are “transitioning” to another agenda, instead of the football players and the cheerleaders. Maybe if you change your pronouns loudly enough, you become Homecoming Queen. Or a Nonbinary Homecoming Entity.

But what’s going on in our schools now under the COVID/Transgender umbrella is just a part of society’s adherence to cliques and the concept of popularity, which as I detailed in Bullyocracy, has ruled our society forever. In frontier days, you were probably judged by the size of your farm. Or how many heads of cattle. From the Roaring Twenties on, it became about how much money you had, or how physically attractive you were. Being able to punch somebody out was important. So was being good at sports. That probably still is, but the whole fifty seven genders thing, and the criticism of “fat shaming” or “body shaming” has really confused things.

But what concerns me personally, and is the primary purpose of this piece of writing, is how social media has created figurative prom queens and athletic superstars. The alternative media is filled with prima donnas and huge egos. As I’ve pointed out to a few of them- no one outside your own little niche has any idea who you are. You are a big fish in a little pond. Many people who have hundreds of thousands of followers on Twitter, or a million on YouTube, are unknown to the public at large. And some of these people haven’t any published books, or have any connection to a wider general audience. They are “famous” to a million people or less.

Which is still pretty impressive. The average person, after all, isn’t “famous” to anyone. The worker bee. The anonymous clerk or delivery person. A housewife or a contractor working from home. CEOs and their upper management underlings do have a small degree of “fame.” The more people under them, the more “famous” they are. A typical blue collar employee will have about as much contact with the CEO of his company than with some random entertainer.

In high school, it’s “popular,” not “famous.” But they mean practically the same thing. The most popular kids in any given high school are, in effect, celebrities. Again, big fish in a small pond. I quoted a line I heard back in high school in Bullyocracy; some kid wondered if anyone “famous” was going to be at a particular party. Of course, he meant popular. The cheerleaders, the starting quarterback, are “famous” in their high school. The student body knows them, just like the audience knows the entertainer. They just aren’t known back.

Some people actually think I’m famous. It always astounds me when someone says, “I can’t believe I’m talking to Don Jeffries.” The definition of fame, I think, is when you are known to large numbers of people whom you don’t know. But there are obviously tremendously varying levels of fame. There’s a popular podcaster who reaches tens of thousands of listeners. Then there’s Joe Biden. I remember people getting swelled heads when they were promoted to assistant supervisor of something. In the business world, those higher up the food chain will not acknowledge the presence of those much lower than them, unless perhaps you’re alone together in an elevator.

The work force mirrors what we see in high school. I explored all this in great detail in Bullyocracy. The director of Housekeeping is not going to sit down in the company cafeteria with the guy who mops the floors for him. In the exact same way, no cheerleader is going to sit at the same lunch table with some overweight wallflower. Well, maybe now- I don’t know. People, especially young people, are getting fatter and fatter, and more enabled in their fatness by our insufferable cultural overlords. So maybe fat is now popular in high school, just like changing your gender or your pronouns. But rest assured, there is popularity.

Popularity can only exist if unpopularity does. Just like beauty needs ugliness to contrast it with. So until recently, the jocks and pretty teenagers needed those Trench Coat Mafia types to stuff in lockers and make their lives miserable. Perhaps the Trench Coat Mafia types are stuffing the jocks in lockers now. Just as all school administrations sided with the popular kids- including those doing the bullying- they are now siding with the transgender lunacy. So I doubt that any Bobby turned Bambi is getting bullied by an aggressive linebacker now. All the kids knew you didn’t fuck with the jocks. Now perhaps they know you don’t fuck with the transgenders.

In our alternative online world, popularity is determined by your social media presence. And that is driven almost exclusively by how many followers you have on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, etc. I’ve seen people whose names and faces draw a blank with me, who have hundreds of thousands of followers on Twitter. All their posts- which often are completely inane- get lots of likes, comments, and retweets. The last I checked, I had just under 3,500 Twitter followers. And when they start to grow, they simply take a bunch away. I guess it’s part of my shadow ban there. That’s why I can no longer do Spaces. No one shows up. Someone tell Elon Musk.

What I have noticed on Twitter, and would surely notice on Instagram if I used it, is that those who follow you are “below” you in the social media hierarchy. Therefore, it is very rare that someone with more followers than me follows me. I would have to follow them first, and then they might or might now follow me back, largely based on what the difference in numbers is. If I followed someone with 500,000 followers, and they see my little 3,500, they aren’t going to click “follow” back. It’s just part of the ironclad rule of the social hierarchy that runs society.

People have always been like this, at least during my lifetime. When I was a blue collar worker at a large hospital, pulling 1,000 pound carts around all day, almost none of the nurses gave me a second glance. But I’d see plenty of them at parties- and those hospital people had lots of parties back in the glory days of America 1.0- where they’d be much, much friendlier. As long as I didn’t tell them what I did. I might even get lucky, if the stars were aligned that night. But then that same nurse would ignore me at the hospital the next time I saw her. Literally not see me, as I trudged past her in my uniform, pulling that huge cart. Usually with a cigarette hanging out of my mouth.

Parents know all about cliques. Cliques form on swim teams, soccer teams, girl scouts, etc. Parents who aren’t “in” the clique, for whatever reason, are frozen out and left feeling like they had been bullied. I described many of these experiences in Bullyocracy. The parents of the more high profile swimmers, or players, will tend to gravitate together. The parents of the backups will be left out. Adult cliques also form based on income. What you or your spouse do for a living plays a huge role in the kinds of friendships you’ll make with other couples. Looks used to matter as well, but with the whole “shaming” craze, maybe not so much any more.

I’ve heard from people that some of these social media celebrities “buy” followers. I’ve firmly convinced that some publishers buy up copies for authors they want to promote more than others. It’s an open secret that film companies “buy” positive reviews on IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes, to sway public opinion about often truly horrific movies. Maybe I’ll get desperate enough one day to “buy” Twitter followers, if such a thing is possible. How dishonest would that be, exactly? If you’re confident enough in your work, you can justify it to yourself. Image is everything.

I am very grateful for my growing presence here. I’m not as popular as Glenn Greenwald, Naomi Wolf, etc. If I subscribe to them, they probably won’t subscribe back. But the playing field here is level. The game isn’t rigged. You can organically grow something on Substack, as I have. I, at least, can’t do that on Twitter. And despite having the maximum 5,000 friends on Facebook, I’m stagnant there because the shadow ban prevents more than a handful from seeing any posts about my work. I’ll still get lots of Happy Birthday messages each year, though, and that’s pretty cool.

I try to stay out of popularity contests. I will say the same things, in the same way, with a young kid just starting a podcast, as I would with Tucker Carlson, should he ever have me on his show. I’m not boasting. I’ve always been that way. I hate airs, and conceit, even when you have something to be conceited about. It’s the populist in me. No one should be looked down upon because of how few followers they have on social media. Or how much money they make. Or how much hair they have. Like Martin Luther King, I believe what is important is the content of one’s character.

I thank all of you who follow me here. Or on Twitter, Facebook and YouTube. I’m not popular, but I’m pretty confident. I don’t like exclusion. Like Tommy Pickles once said on The Rugrats, anyone can join my club. I’m flattered when anyone wants to interview me, or tells me how much they enjoyed one of my books. Or when then follow me on social media. I hope I never think I’m big enough to become a conspiracy celebrity. I’ll always reply to you. I’ll always follow you back.

Readers of my work know how I feel about Donald Trump. I’m part of the smallest minority group in the world- what my friend John Barbour termed the Trump Agnostics. I just can’t get worked up enough over his larger than life personality to either love him or hate him. Obviously, more than 300 million Americans disagree.

Trump’s 2016 campaign rhetoric was like none we’d heard before in modern American history. He mentioned things that no other candidate ever had, and he did so in a very loud way. Bigly. I voted for him because of immigration. I realized he was not going to do everything he promised, but if he did anything at all to slow down the open borders madness, and deported any appreciable number of illegal immigrants, then that would be a huge win for the American people. It didn’t take long for many of us to realize that Trump wasn’t going to do anything at all to address our disastrous immigration policies. In fact, he wound up deporting fewer illegals that Barack Obama.

Eventually, I postulated that Trump was an actor, hired to play a role. Given populist talking points, that were bound to resonate with millions of Americans tired of the same stale speeches defending a totally corrupt system. I dubbed it the Trumpenstein Project. I don’t think any high profile figures have used my term, although both Matt Gaetz and Steve Bannon have started referring to the Republicans as the Washington Generals. With all due modesty, I think I came up with that one first. Maybe someone on their staffs listen to me on Jeff Rense, or even on my weekly “I Protest” podcast. Or perhaps they just came up with it on their own, independently of me, and my ego is just out of control. But if some of them start using Trumpenstein….

What I want to address specifically here are what looks like a never-ending series of prosecutions of the former president. Any prosecution of a former president is unprecedented. But these prosecutions are particularly ridiculous, and make a mockery of what remains of a “justice” system that is, like the rest of America 2.0, running on fumes. Now, I would have liked to see almost every former president put on trial for the various crimes they committed in office. And they all committed crimes. But Trumpenstein was notable mainly for his lack of wrongdoing in office. This is because he didn’t do anything, good or bad, as president. He just tweeted. Nonstop. I’m actually surprised he isn’t being prosecuted for excessive tweeting.

Actually, charges of excessive tweeting, or misuse of a social media platform, or promoting “disinformation” or “misinformation” online, wouldn’t be any more outrageous than the “crimes” he is being charged with. The first case was from a woman who claimed Trump had raped her some thirty years earlier. She couldn’t remember the year it took place. And many years later, she openly joked on social media about sex with Trump. Now, I’ve never been raped, but that seems like odd behavior. As I noted at the time, Florida Governor DeSantis publicly said he would ignore any extradition order, so Trump could have finally taken a stand against the Deep State. But no, he trudged faithfully off to New York, into a kangaroo court.

Trump is being prosecuted in Georgia for disputing the results of the 2020 election. For those of you keeping score at home, this is the same state where Stacey Abrams disputed the results of the governor’s race. Openly and repeatedly. If I were Trump’s attorney, I would begin my defense by playing video of Abrams engaging in “election denial” for the jury. Now this will never happen, because Trump only hires the worst lawyers. It’s a Trumpenstein thing, you wouldn’t understand. Look at them now, turning against him one by one. Sidney “Release the Kracken” Powell, Jenna Ellis. Oh, the irony of the world’s most disloyal billionaire being thrown under the bus himself.

Understand the significance here. Our rotten injustice system is literally outlawing the questioning of elections. It’s bad enough that the state controlled media calls you an “election denier,” but now any of the saps who voted for Trumpenstein may become subject to prosecution themselves. I guess the literal charge against him is “election denial.” Not sure what that falls under in the criminal code, but it certainly hasn’t been adjudicated before. And it will set yet another ugly precedent. Trump will undoubtedly lose, because he loses all the time. He’s the captain of the Washington Generals. We will have so much losing that we may get tired of losing.

Perhaps the most absurd of all the Trump prosecutions, however, is the latest one going on in New York. Trump is being charged there with “fraud” for allegedly exaggerating the worth of his property. The judge there, as in all the Trumpenstein trials, is a hopelessly biased Never Trumper. Could we have it any other way? Without that, Trump couldn’t publicly criticize the judge and the Tik Tok-style prosecutors for their embarrassing unprofessionalism and prejudice. It’s all part of the show. Maybe Stormy Daniels can be brought in to whip Trumpenstein in the courtroom. Or they could wheel in him completely restrained, like Hannibal Lecter.

Having been a licensed Realtor since 1985, I find this one to be incomprehensible. People have been overvaluing their property for a very long time. There is no finite measure for property value. Sure, there is an appraisal, but it’s worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. As I understand, the judge in this case used tax assessments to prove the property was worth less than what Trump claimed it was. As every homeowner knows, the tax assessed value is significantly less than the market value. In a pre-trial ruling, Judge Arthur Engoron found Trump guilty of providing “false and misleading financial statements.” If that’s now a crime, then our already overcrowded prisons are going to burst at the seams.

I’m no lawyer, and I’ve never even been a juror. I doubt any prosecutor would want someone like me, what with my affinity for forgotten notions like reasonable doubt and innocent until proven guilty, to be seated on any jury. But nevertheless it seems strange that a judge could declare a defendant guilty before the trial began. But it’s all the rage now. Every one of Alex Jones’s many judges did that. They don’t even pretend to be fair and impartial. They are, in effect, an arm of the prosecution in these now shockingly common politicized trials. Even if Trump wasn’t Trumpenstein, and an essential part of the production, he wouldn’t have a chance. We are nearly at the Alice in Wonderland stage, where it’s “Sentence first- verdict afterwards.”

Jack Smith stands out as perhaps the most egregiously deranged of all those cast in this tragicomedy. I’m not even sure what Trump is being prosecuted for in Smith’s case, but it revolved around his allegedly hoarding classified documents. Smith obtained a “search warrant” for Trump’s tweets. I feel sorry for whoever he assigned the task of reading through all that grade school level food fighting. Before he became a “special counsel,” Smith was a Department of Justice prosecutor who’d been chastised by the Supreme Court in 2016 for his “limitless interpretation of criminality.” Smith has been so reckless in persecuting Trump that even the ACLU was appalled. The ACLU now concentrates on “racism” and “climate change,” rather than the “civil liberties” which is in their name. So you know how bad Smith must be.

Smith wants to reinstate a preposterous gag order on Trump, to essentially silence him until after the 2024 election. He was especially incensed about Trump’s comments regarding his former chief of staff Mark Meadows, who like Trump’s former attorneys is accepting a plea deal to testify against his ex-boss. Information is now coming out that Meadows was an FBI plant inside the White House, always working against the interests of the Giant Orange Man who made him one of his countless horrendous appointees. Smith also wants to stop him from criticizing former Vice President Mike Pence, for instance, who may prove to have been another FBI undercover asset in Trump’s White House for all we know.

Among the names Trumpenstein has called Smith are “deranged thug” and “raging lunatic.” Smith’s wife is the producer of a recent puff piece documentary on Michelle Obama. Trump was charged with an astounding 37 counts, including violating the Espionage Act and obstructing justice, in his handling of classified documents. The fact that he appears to have done nothing different in that regard than Joe Biden has been revealed to have done, is irrelevant to the millions who hate Trumpenstein with an irrational fervor, or those who serve this monstrous injustice system. And the man overseeing this prosecution doesn’t try to hide his loyalty to the Democratic Party. He regularly chastises Republicans in laughably immature tweets.

But the fact that Smith constantly takes jabs at Trump (and his family) on Twitter should immediately force his dismissal as special counsel. He tweeted that it was “good news” when the judge threatened to imprison Trump (after already fining him) for violating the ludicrous “gag order.” He has called him names like Donald “Jezebel” Trump. He’s referred to him as an “insurrectionist.” Reading through Smith’s Twitter feed, ones comes away with an impression of the most entitled, arrogant individual imaginable. It would be terrifying to have someone this unscrupulous and committed to a political and social agenda helping to determine your fate. It isn’t easy to do, but Smith has managed to make Trump look rational and restrained in comparison.

While Trump meanders through an endless series of illegal prosecutions, for “crimes” that never previously existed, the fallout from January 6 continues. Joe Biggs was given seventeen years, longer than many murderers. Owen Shroyer of Infowars just reported to prison to serve his sixty day sentence. Shroyer is on videotape warning others at the January 6 protest to not enter the Capitol, because they were being set up. Seems like pretty good evidence to vindicate him, but I’m not a part of the most criminal legal system this side of the old Soviet show trials. No one should go to prison for the January 6 rally. Well, except for the cop who killed Ashli Babbitt. And the other cop who killed Roseanne Boyland. And maybe the government assets who broke a few windows. All the rest were waved in by our heroic police officers.

If only the ACLU still cared about civil liberties. I’d burn my old membership card in protest if I could find it. If only the likes of Mark Lane and Nat Hentoff were still alive. There should have been large protests outside the D.C. prison where these poor souls have been unconstitutionally held for nearly three years now, denied all due process, allegedly beaten and kept in solitary confinement. By the way, Alex Jones says Owen Shroyer has already been put in solitary confinement. I thought you had to do something really bad to be put in isolation like that, but what do I know? I’ve probably watched too many old films.

And Trumpenstein, as part of the script, rarely if ever mentions his supporters who have been held as political prisoners in his name. Now I wouldn’t accept the offer of any of his attorneys, being as how they never win, but he could certainly funnel them some of the many millions he continues to grift from his supporters who remain at large. Yet most of those behind bars still stand with Trump. Joe Biggs is confident that Trump will pardon them. Ashli Babbitt’s mother continues to support him. You can’t put a price on that kind of faith. God bless them. But Trump could at least start off each of his rallies with a reference to them being political prisoners.

I don’t know what the next act in the Trumpenstein Project will be. Perhaps some vicious prosecutor, who is on the record wanting to “get” him for a long time, will charge him with “publicly espousing conspiracy theories.” That’s as much a crime as disputing a vote, or inflating the value of a property, is. And it fits right in with being found guilty of raping a woman that couldn’t remember the year it happened. Our entire system of jurisprudence is being rewritten. Well, not rewritten exactly. Made up as it goes along. Identity Politics on steroids. The criminalization of certain political beliefs, and of opposing the authorities. Literal Thought Crime.

Regardless if Trump is or isn’t Trumpenstein; let’s just say he is what he appears to be. An impossibly egotistical and childish billionaire, who was born on third base, and thought he hit a home run. A man who doesn’t seem capable or willing to read anything. Who makes basic grammatical errors while tweeting. Who speaks in an almost surrealistic, inarticulate style. Who may, in fact, have a dangerously low IQ. Even if all that were true, he wasn’t such an extraordinary criminal politician that he must be continuously prosecuted for things no one has been prosecuted for before. In fact, he seems far less criminally prone than Biden, Obama, both Clintons, and both Bushes. The ugly truth is that Trump did little wrong, because he did little overall.

I believe Trump is playing the lead role here, and thus I call him Trumpenstein. But whatever he is exactly, his convictions in court (and there is not the slightest pretense that he will ever be found not guilty of anything) serve as a symbolic reference to all those who dissent from the nonstop criminality and corruption of our overlords. You are on trial, not Donald Trump. In the future, you will not protest election results. If you criticize the judges and prosecutors who are overtly railroading you, then you’ll be fined. And issued a gag order. They could in fact prosecute Trump for espousing “conspiracy theories.” They might call it “disinformation,” but we’d know what it means. What the state calls “disinformation” is exposure of their own culpability.

It ought to bother every American that anyone, Donald Trump or Donald Jeffries, can be convicted of sexually assaulting someone who can’t even remember the year it took place. Kind of hard to provide an alibi under those circumstances, isn’t it? It ought to bother every property owner, at least, that you could be prosecuted for “overvaluing” the worth of your property. Taken to its logical conclusion, you could be prosecuted for “overcharging” whoever purchased your home. That’s scary. And not within the realm of jurisprudence. Yet the real estate industry, which I belong to, is silent. They don’t have to like Trump to realize what a dangerous precedent this will set.

When you throw in the just as absurd prosecutions of Alex Jones, all for the same “crime” of “harassing” the Sandy Hook parents, you should be very concerned for your own welfare. If you’re reading this, you are unquestionably a Thought Criminal. You probably believe that there are many legitimate questions about Sandy Hook. But now another ugly precedent has been set, so that questioning at least selected events is essentially outlawed. Again, regardless of what you think of Alex Jones, this fits right in with the Trumpenstein show trials, and will criminalize dissent. If you liked the Orwellian “Hate Speech” nonsense, you’re going to love the fallout from these corrupt “legal” charades. You can’t allow any asterisks on the Bill of Rights.

I don’t think for a minute that Trumpenstein will be sent to prison. They may claim he’s being sent there, but it will be for purposes of the orange jumpsuit perp walk millions have lusted for, perhaps. Photo optics are important. They may show Trumpenstein behind some theatrical bars, maybe hire some big Black guy to play his prison boyfriend. Trump could even declare he enjoyed being a prison bitch, and was now going to transition to a female. Maybe he and Bruce Jenner could be the first all transgender presidential ticket. Or they could just pretend he was elected, and further pretend that he would be executing his duties from a prison cell. Like I said, I don’t make predictions. But that scenario might tickle their satanic fancies.

Seriously, what is happening is a disgrace to our collapsing system, and an insult to everyone’s intelligence. Whether Trump or Trumpenstein, these are not “crimes” he’s being charged with, and the prosecutions are examples of Social Justice Warriors Gone Wild. The message is; don’t trust any “outsider.” Cringe at any populist rhetoric. Embrace the system. To question “democracy” is to threaten it. Take two Soma and call me in the morning. Get out and dance with Ellen. Or the COVID nurses. Stand with Ukraine. And, of course, Israel. Forget the “insurrectionists.” Forget Donald Trump ever existed, unless you want to become an “unperson,” too. Talk to your doctor. Take your meds. Listen to what the authorities say. Stay safe.

John McAfee died last week. They say he killed himself. No one, of course, believes this, except the authorities who “investigated” it. McAfee assured the public he’d never do this, tweeting, “If I kill myself, I didn’t. I was wacked. Look at my right arm.” His right arm had a tattoo with “wacked” written under it.

Of course, others before McAfee had also publicly declared they’d never commit suicide. Countless examples of this are provided in my book Hidden History. Deborah Jeane Palfrey, the “DC Madam” whose book of clients threatened to expose much of the Deep State, declared in an interview with Alex Jones that she would never take her own life. Shortly afterwards, she was found hanged. No establishment “journalist” questioned that then, and they aren’t questioning McAfee’s “suicide” now.

I had John McAfee on my radio program “I Protest” twice. He was a swashbuckler from another era, the kind of rugged individualist that was probably common in frontier days. He was strongly critical of our corrupt leaders, and particularly called them out for their unconstitutional lockdown and absurd “pandemic.” A June 7 tweet, appearing to come from McAfee’s Twitter account, listed an address to check if something were to happen to him.

The address just happened to be that of a twelve story beachfront property in Surfside, Florida, which collapsed in a 9/11 Building 7-style manner last week. Or a few weeks after McAfee’s tweet. If this tweet was really from him, it is an exploding, not smoking, gun. I’m still trying to contact his wife to see if she can verify it.

Speaking of that collapse, a lot of the same elements we have seen in most mass casualty events going back at least to the 2011 Gabby Giffords shooting, were present here. A much-interviewed family that escaped miraculously, and flashed the same inappropriate smiles and laughter that we’ve seen so often before. A boy pulled from the rubble early on, who looked remarkably clean and unscathed considering the situation. Rescuers who seem to be standing on top of the still uncleared rubble in most every photo, doing very little rescuing.

Now I’m asking questions here that very few others will. Certainly no “investigative” reporter will. This country doesn’t have investigative journalism, outside of the radical skeptics on the internet, who are being increasingly censored. I’m certainly not alone in questioning how a building can just fall like that, without even the fanciful jet fuel cocktail the government wrote into their impossible 9/11 script. It certainly looked like a demolition. Nothing like this has ever happened in this country, to my knowledge. If this was the result of the “new normal” construction standards, everyone living in high level apartments should be looking at other housing options.

Well, there aren’t really any options for most living in apartments, given the price of real estate, and the pathetically low wages at the bottom of the employment market. So I guess they’ll just have to live in even more fear. Being scared your building might collapse is at a whole new fear level beyond terrorism and the deadly virus.

Unfortunately, millions of Americans may have to get used to this new fear. The Biden administration is portraying single family homes, especially those in the suburbs, as “racist.” Well, what isn’t racist nowadays, you might ask. But if they are successful in rezoning areas, and injecting pockets of section 8 housing into formerly idyllic neighborhoods, the last vestiges of America 1.0 will disappear down the memory hole. I live in one of these wonderful neighborhoods. You can literally hear a pin drop while walking the entire loop of homes. Enjoy it while you can, if you have it.

I watch a lot of old movies, as Grandpa Simpson once said. They are more comforting than ever now. That world- with its general civility and order, more attractive and fit people, and superior infrastructure, stands in stark contrast to the corrupt and decadent present mess. You should probably load up on DVDs while you can. Given the increasingly authoritarian climate, it’s only a matter of time until every film made prior to 2000 is banned from television. Certainly those produced before 1960 or so are especially objectionable to “woke” sensibilities.

The same thing goes for old television shows. Buy DVD sets of The Andy Griffith Show, Leave it to Beaver, Green Acres, The Beverly Hillbillies and other similarly entertaining programs. They, too, depict a different world. A different universe. A different reality. And music- much of the classic stuff we listened to in the ‘60s-’80s era contains lyrics which are verboten in identity politics. I’m sure Under my Thumb by the Rolling Stones is beloved by feminists everywhere.

But then again, feminism is being destroyed by transgenderism. I’ve pointed out to a few feminists that it is particularly absurd for a male to just be able to arbitrarily declare himself a woman, and be instantly placed on a par with biological females who, in some cases, have been fighting for women’s rights for many years. What does “women’s rights” even mean now, in the LGBTQ age? I’m sure I might have missed a letter or two there. I don’t even know what some of the letters stand for.

It is my fervent hope that Asians, Hispanics, and other nonwhites who are not Black, will start “identifying” as Black. They really ought to; it’s definitely the thing to do now. That might bring the entire house of virtue signaling down, given that it’s all driven by intense anti-Whiteness and ridiculously over the top Black worship. I don’t think many Blacks will be as tolerant as most women seem to be, over that kind of appropriation. It is certainly just as legitimate for a 5 foot tall Chinese woman to “identify” as a 6’5 Black male, as it is for biological males to be magically converted into “transgendered” females.

Our corrupt and authoritarian masters, and their destruction of a more sane and orderly society, compel me to almost always sound pessimistic. I have said more than once that I’d like to focus on some sliver of hope, but there just doesn’t seem to be any. Well, that has perhaps changed a bit in recent weeks. Uncharacteristically irate parents, especially in my neighboring Loudon County, Virginia, are taking their horrific school board members to task. For the insidious, anti-White “Critical Race Theory.” For “transgender story time” and other cultural atrocities our kids are being subjected to.

I’ve seen White and Black parents berate these arrogant “public servants,” and the only response thus far has been for the school boards to rely on their police power to eject the unruly speakers.. The same police, by the way, who “conservatives” continue to think are on “our” side. They’re not. If that isn’t obvious by now, I don’t know what else to say. But even with armed law enforcement, and the always silent press, shielding them from the scrutiny they so richly deserve, these school board members must be feeling just a bit apprehensive.

It’s one thing to hit White America over the head with continuous “White Privilege” and “White Supremacy” fairy tales. It’s quite another to subject their six year olds to a vicious “theory” that crushes their self-esteem and brands them as villains before they’ve even had a chance to start living. Watching some of the exceptionally articulate White students take these “educators” to task is awe-inspiring. I was especially moved by one teenage girl’s tearful account of a very sad, abusive upbringing, and how it offended her to hear that she had benefited from “White Privilege.”

Maybe, just maybe, we are finally starting to reach a tipping point. I’ve said many times that Americans, and in particular White Americans, don’t seem to have a tipping point. Perhaps these parents are about to prove me wrong. It appears that they may very well have reached the tipping point.

Many of us have been looking at things the wrong way; instead of expecting leaders at the national level to “fix” things and save us, we should have been working, like the parents in Loudon County and elsewhere, on being the change we seek. There is a far better chance of reform coming from the bottom up, than from the top down. If some school board members get recalled, and others are frightened into doing the right thing, one of our many problems- the deplorable schools- might well be solved.

Don’t wait for any mainstream outlet to uncover anything. They aren’t capable of, or allowed to do that. If enough angry parents come together, reform may come. And once those “tiny ripples of hope” that RFK talked about start cascading upwards from the level of school boards, anything is possible. A president that isn’t a laughingstock. A majority honest Congress. A Supreme Court devoted to constitutional law. A populace free to enjoy their natural born civil liberties.

Just the other day, New York Attorney General Letitia James issued a remarkable statement. “Before this trial even began, the judge ruled in our favor and found that Donald Trump did engage in years of significant financial fraud,” James boasted publicly. This is associated with just one of Donald Trump’s absurd legal cases.

Let what this laughable, biased prosecutor said sink in for a moment. She admitted that the honorable judge had “ruled in our favor” before the case had gone to trial. Even for this collapsing Banana Republic, it’s a shocking precedent to openly brag about such a serious breach of basic legal protocol. James, whom Trump has called “racist,” recently stated, “The Donald Trump show is over.” James has referred to Trump as an “illegitimate president,” and said “his days are numbered.” She lashed out at Trump at many rallies, even declaring, “We’ll bring him down!” Upon being elected in December 2018, James vowed, “We will use every area of the law to investigate President Trump and his business transactions and that of his family as well.” In this case, Trump is accused of exaggerating the value of his assets.

Now, I’ve known a lot of people in my lifetime that exaggerated the value of whatever they had. Bullshitters, I believe they’re called. Or to be more polite, blowhards. Until now, being a bullshit artist wasn’t a criminal offense. The good judge in this case, Arthur Engoron, is about as biased as can be, a perfect example of the new judges who rule over the Orwellian courtrooms of America 2.0. Engoron slapped a gag order on the former president after he insulted his law clerk in a post on Truth Social. Some insults are more equal than others. Trump also received a gag order in his equally ridiculous trial for “conspiring to overthrow” the 2020 election, by complaining about the many obvious irregularities that smacked of fraud.

It’s hard to keep track of the players without a scorecard, but Jack Smith, the prosecutor in the case where Trump is being tried for alleging electoral fraud, something which Stacy Abrams continues to do in the same state, is in a category by himself. Smith has regularly taunted Trump on social media, at Trump’s own grade school level. It makes you proud to be an American to witness it. Judge Tanya Chutkan is almost identical to Engoron in her transparent bias against Trump. Trump has no chance in either case. Although a bit less classless than the TikTok judges Alex Jones has been tried by, they are similar in their disregard for traditional appearances of impartiality and the presumption of innocence, and their distaste for free speech.

Just as the lethargic American public permitted tyranny to be constructed all around them, without protesting or even noticing, they have allowed the implementation of a politicized justice system. The prosecutions of Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, Mike Flynn, Sydney Powell and other Trump associates were all politically motivated. Peter Navarro was convicted for contempt of Congress, because he ignored a subpoena. You know, the same thing presidential offspring Hunter Biden just did this week. Former Attorney General Eric Holder did this as well. Some subpoenas are more equal than others. I’m just a community college dropout, but I do know that either congressional subpoenas are legally required to be responded to, or they aren’t any big deal.

The January 6 defendants, those who aren’t still languishing in prison nearly two years later, denied all due process, have been given draconian sentences. Some will spend more years in prison than many murderers do. There hasn’t been a single concerned civil libertarian who has complained publicly about the political prisoners in Washington, D.C. Well, actually there really aren’t any civil libertarians left in America. Well, there is me. But who’s going to listen to me? The ACLU has dropped that whole civil liberties thing. It was so America 1.0. Maybe they can change their name to the American Criminal Leftists Union or something.

Doug Mackey recently was sent to prison for a short stay, for making fun of Hillary Clinton in a 2016 political meme. He could have received seven years. So, the judge was “lenient.” I don’t know, I think it’s pretty tyrannical to prosecute anyone for a political meme, let alone put them behind bars. Even for a single day. I’d ask what the statue of limitations was for a political meme, except that heretofore, political memes have not been considered potentially criminal in nature. Keeping with the “new norm” in jurisprudence, Owen Shroyer of Infowars served over a month in prison recently, most of it in solitary confinement. For being videotaped warning people to not go into the Capitol on January 6. He’s kind of the anti-Ray Epps, who of course was filmed urging people to go inside the Capitol, and remains free at large.

Now, I don’t know if any of this bothers you, but it certainly should. They are setting precedents to prosecute others, like you and me, for the same “crimes.” I’ve heard from enough ex-cons to know what prison is like, and I don’t want to go there. Even if it was a country club, and inmates actually had a blast there, I would still long to “climb the golden walls,” to quote the old poet. We already have way too many people imprisoned. More than any country has ever had. We should be letting those out who don’t belong there, as well as figuring out just how many were victims of this same horrific legal system, and are actually innocent.

Because of the Trumpenstein Project, which used the former reality TV star to hopelessly divide the country, and destroy any independent political movement, our “justice” system has dropped all pretenses. We’ve all seen the videos of cops planting evidence, or threatening to do so to uncooperative motorists. In Pennsylvania a few years back, some judges were convicted of having knowingly sent a bunch of underage kids into the world of sex trafficking. For money. The elite do love their mammon. Ambitious prosecutors going back to the sham trial of Bruno Richard Hauptman, framed and executed for the Lindbergh baby kidnapping, were later found to have doctored evidence in order to get a conviction. A win. Everybody loves a winner. They have never cared about justice.

It bears repeating that this tyranny was constructed on the backs of all those apathetic Americans. Who didn’t care that others were being railroaded, or given outrageously long prison sentences, as long as it wasn’t happening to them, or to someone they love. Human beings generally don’t care about the injustices inflicted upon strangers. “Hey, I’m doing fine,” they’ll rationalize. It’s a shocking inability to stand inside another’s shoes. Empathy should be an essential part of human nature. But it’s never been as lacking as it is today. You have to have a population that totally lacks empathy, for instance, in states like California. To mindlessly walk by the pathetic people living in tents, stepping around the human excrement on the sidewalks.

As the Libertarians used to note, every time a new law is passed, we create new “criminals.” There are already far too many laws, and yet the public clamors for more. Millions want those they disagree with politically to be “locked up,” you know, like career Deep State villain Hillary Clinton. Who is, of course, definitely not locked up. The swamp has never been fuller. It’s ironic that, with all the politicized prosecutions going on, the criminal elite continue to evade the long arm of the law they control. I wrote about all the modern Deep State criminals in Hidden History. None were ever prosecuted. Even if they were prosecuted, they would be acquitted by the same brain- dead juries that convict hapless riff raff on zero credible evidence.

I’m no fan of Rudy Giuliani. He was a part of the ridiculous 9/11 mainstream narrative. He was a quintessential RINO. Then he started talking about what was on the Hunter Biden laptop. Is he really shown raping a ten year old Chinese girl? Is his then fourteen year old niece filmed nude there? I don’t know, but Giuliani alluded to a lot of things regarding this laptop. I do know that our legal system seems unconcerned with it. Or Hunter’s well documented profits in Ukraine, which seemingly involved his famous father. Now Giuliani has been convicted of defaming two Black Georgia precinct workers. The two were awarded nearly $150 million in damages. Please, somebody defame me! Now that may be a drop in the bucket to the near billion Alex Jones was ordered to pay to selected Sandy Hook parents, but it’s nothing to sneeze at.

So, this is our new Orwellian legal system in a nutshell. Dominion sues a bunch of people who were suggesting that their electronic voting machines aren’t as pure as one of Joe Biden’s ice cream cones. Fox News, which naturally has a financial interest in Dominion, loses a high profile defamation case against them, without even attempting a defense. They could have cited the excellent book Votescam, by the late Collier brothers, which documented the suspicious nature of electronic voting machines. Or at least the section on vote fraud in my own book Hidden History: An Expose of Modern Crimes, Conspiracies, and Cover-ups in American Politics. But instead, Fox fired Tucker Carlson. So they did do something.

I was watching another of those Investigation Discovery network shows the other night. I don’t know why I do that, other than to reinforce my own impression of just how incredibly unfair and inconsistent our justice system is, and how monstrous average people can be. In this episode, an attractive blonde admitted to killing her husband. He was supposedly abusing her or something. She wasn’t the first attractive blonde to use that defense. So she had to stab him nearly 200 times. At any rate, she’s already been released from prison after serving sixteen years. Or one year less than Joe Biggs was sentenced to for being an unarmed “insurrectionist” on January 6. That’s six years less than the Hispanic leader of the “White Supremacist” Proud Boys got. And he wasn’t even in Washington, D.C. Feel the wheels of injustice grinding.

I may write a book on our injustice system, focusing to a large extent on these maddening disparities in sentencing. And also the number of poor souls who have been sentenced to life without parole, on the basis of the sole recanted testimony of a fellow inmate. Has there been a juror, outside of I guess Aunt Bea on The Andy Griffith Show, over the past century or so who understood what “reasonable doubt” means? Sure, most of those convicted weren’t hot blondes, but with the “fat acceptance” movement taking the culture by storm now, that particular entitlement doesn’t carry the weight it once did. I can cite other cases, like the father who killed his son in front of his family, and got something like fifteen years. Or one year less than Joe Biggs. I don’t know how the average prosecutor, or the average juror, can sleep at night.

Alex Jones was not allowed to use the First Amendment in his defense during his endless series of Sandy Hook trials. All for the same “crime.” Isn’t there some twist on double jeopardy there, to prevent someone from being prosecuted multiple times for the same thing? One of Jones’s TikTok judges literally told the jury that he was lying. I don’t think judges are supposed to do that. Something about presiding in an impartial manner comes to mind. But tell that to Amy Berman Jackson, the Democratic Party activist judge who allowed the lead juror in Roger Stone’s show trial to stay in her position, after she posted anti-Trump and anti-Stone messages online. During the trial. Even in the old corrupt days, that would have been enough to get her tossed, even if the defendant was an accused serial killer. Jackson wouldn’t replace her.

Thanks to the “Woke” carnival on campuses for the past several years, the new judges taking the bench will all resemble Alex Jones’s TikTok persecutors. They could literally have an LBGTQ+ (I don’t care if I got all the ridiculous initials correct) flag flying behind them in court. The goal appears to be to strip away whatever vestiges of traditionalism remain in America 2.0. All of the court battles thus far, between deranged mothers and befuddled fathers, over the “gender” of their abused child, have resulted in victories for the side of insanity. The side of body mutilation. That’s the way these courts roll. They aren’t about to even accidentally make a just decision.

Thanks to the universal acceptance of Judicial Review, the courts have become the final arbiter for everything. So when a much saner California overwhelmingly passed proposition 187 in 1994, which would have denied illegal immigrants government benefits, a federal judge simply ruled it was unconstitutional. That’s the “democracy” that we’re supporting in Ukraine, where all opposition political parties and media are banned. One unelected individual in a robe overruling the will of the people. Democracy. Thomas Jefferson saw Judicial Review for what it was, and seemed to be about the last American to complain about it, until I came along, with my humble but growing following on the internet. If the Republicans were really an opposition party, they’d be making an issue of this. They aren’t. They just hope for the “right” judge.

This system isn’t just rigged. It’s irreparably broken. And as Donald Trump pointed out in his most astute campaign comment, you can’t trust those who rigged it to fix it. Every time someone who was in the wrong place, at the wrong time, gets convicted after seeing his public defender for all of five minutes, we all lose. An unfair conviction, or an unjust acquittal based on legal irrelevancies like wealth, race, or politics, taints the system we all are supposed to respect. No one with any critical thinking ability whatsoever, and even a cursory knowledge of modern history, can possibly have the least bit of faith in our system. I cannot argue any longer with the anarchists. There is no reason to have even the most limited trust in any authority.

It’s entirely appropriate that the most corrupt society in the history of the world, our own glorious America 2.0, should have a system of kangaroo courts that would make Lewis Carroll, author of Alice in Wonderland, blush. We are really almost at the point of “sentence first, verdict afterwards,” which for over a century represented just a titillating example of the author’s renowned “nonsense.” When a judge openly rules that a defendant is guilty, before the trial has begun, as happened in one of Trump’s show trials, then we have literally reached that stage. And the vast majority of Americans couldn’t care less. Or “could care less,” as many of them would ungrammatically put it. After all, they aren’t on trial. If you got nothing to hide, why do you care? They simply cite one of their countless ghetto references: “I’m good.”

We have school administrations loyally backing crazed TikTok teachers who want to interrogate preschoolers about which gender they “identify” as. And courts that will undoubtedly rule against any sane parents who want to stop the madness. We have the entire business world- the vaunted private industry dear to the hears of conservatives everywhere- supporting the lunacy of “announcing pronouns.” And there isn’t a business out there, in this rigged marketplace of ours- that won’t fire someone for “misidentifying” one of these troubled souls. They’ll also fire you for “hate speech,” if the “right” people complain loudly enough. We have seen countless people “cancelled” from their jobs for their social media posts. On their own free time.

The millions of Americans who cling to some semblance of sanity, and believe in some semblance of liberty, are powerless. They have no “representatives,” in Congress, in the courts, in the business world, or in Hollywood. Every organ of the establishment is aligned against them. You might even call that a conspiracy. They don’t care if you don’t buy their products, or go to their movies. It’s not about profits, in this allegedly profit-driven land. There are far more important agendas here. The Great Replacement. The eugenicist’s wet dream of culling the herd. Of not only having all the wealth, but as Huey Long pointed out, of gleefully knowing that you don’t have it. It’s a wealth disparity thing, you wouldn’t understand.

The White Hats aren’t going to save us any more than the White race is going to suddenly start madly procreating. We have to save ourselves, and that will only be possible by using our massive advantage in numbers. But everyone, including me I freely admit, hesitates because they know that not enough others will join with them. It’s a real Catch-22. If you take a chance, and the expected happens- you wind up as one of only a handful of rabble rousers, easy to make an example of- then you’re far worse off than now, when you can rage against the machine from a safe distance. JFK quoted the old Chinese proverb that a journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step. Our single step can be to make our presence known at the local level- things like school board and local supervisors’ meetings.

I was at the post office the other day, and as usual the great heroes had left only half the cashier windows open, despite there being a holiday line extending out the door. Naturally, I spoke up loudly, asking them how long the line had to get before they would open all their windows. Just as naturally, no one answered. The cowed crowd, typical citizens of America 2.0, remained oblivious. A few glared at me. Now, this is about the lowest level protest imaginable. If just a handful of people in that line had said, “Yeah, why don’t you open up all the windows?” then they probably would have done so. I’m willing to speak up, but there has to be people that simply second my motion. But even in something as relatively insignificant as this, the people are silent.

Just as I was writing this, the Colorado Supreme Court ruled that Trump’s name can’t appear on the presidential ballot in the state. After all, he was responsible for leading an “insurrection” to topple the duly elected, humble and lovable, noncreepy Joe Biden. The fairest and freest election in history. So those supporting the candidate leading in all the dubious polls are essentially being disenfranchised in that state. There may well be other states. But there’s always the U.S. Supreme Court, the one they call the Trump court, which never supports him. This is the way “our democracy” works. Trump and his voters are a “threat” to it. Just nominate Nikki Haley, Republicucks. She’s the perfect candidate for your “opposition” party.

I won’t give up hope, and I certainly won’t give up my faith. Maybe someday, in some part of this once shining land, a group of naysayers will finally have had enough. When one of them speaks up, to the post office, the school board, the board of supervisors, whatever, a bunch of others will rally behind them. When confronted with the least bit of unexpected solidarity, authority figures from cops to educators to post office “heroes,” will almost assuredly back down quickly. Finally do the right thing. Finally listen to the people, when more than a lone wolf speaks out. If there is hope, it is at these lower levels. And if results are achieved there, then we move on up to the next level of corrupted power. As RFK said, tiny ripples of hope.

If you do a search for “Caucasian” on Google images, you’ll see a few pictures of actual Caucasians, interspersed among lots of images of nonwhites. This is similar to searching for “Happy White woman.” Do it. You’ll be surprised by what images come up. Actually maybe you won’t be. This is now the expected “new normal.”

I never signed up to be a crusader for White rights. I don’t like sounding like a White Nationalist, whatever that is. But someone has to do it. Of all the giant elephants traipsing across the crumbling landscape of America 2.0, none are larger or more dutifully ignored than the Great Replacement of White people. Only nonwhite people, like Vivek Ramaswamy recently, have the courage to bring the subject up in public. And only these selected nonwhites seem to care that is it happening. The “Woke” White crowd is overjoyed at this prospect. The “conservative,” MAGA types seem to be perfectly fine with it as well. Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy admitted that the Stupid Party was focused on attracting nonwhites before he was ousted.

Now I am undeniably White. That’s a fact. “Science,” if you will. I had nothing to do with it. I didn’t will myself to be born White, any more than I willed myself to only grow to be five foot nine inches tall. None of us control our ethnicity, so it’s ridiculous for anyone to be proud of it. But conversely, it’s just as ridiculous to be ashamed of it. Can I start a “I’m White, and not proud or ashamed” mantra? But thanks to a decades long propaganda campaign which cannot be denied, the vast majority of White people alive today are ashamed. For being born the way they were. They have a collective guilt which the world has never seen before, for wrongs real, exaggerated, and imagined, committed by some Whites from previous generations.

I have researched my family tree as well as I could, given the resources available. None of my ancestors were in a position to have owned slaves, even if they’d wanted to. I’m sure they all were hopelessly “racist” by today’s standards, as were more than 99 percent of White people alive during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. By contrast, the present-day Chinese people, for example, are decidedly racist by any standards. There are literal signs on businesses in China proclaiming that no Blacks are allowed. It’s odd that this is of such little concern to the Social Justice Warriors. Hollywood, in which China has a heavily vested interest, is not about to broach the subject. No, instead, let’s focus on signs like that which used to exist in America.

Today’s young Whites, especially those steadfastly clinging to their male birth identity and he/him pronouns, are essentially second-class citizens. Except, of course, for those who come from families with a lot of money. But even then, they must play the game, as they rise up the corporate ladder which has been pulled away from the vast majority of their young White peers. They must always be deferential around nonwhites, especially Blacks. They must never refer to race at all, unless it is to express guilt over their whiteness, or agree with the official narrative that “marginalized” persons “of color,” are the ones facing obstacles and discrimination. They must acknowledge the imaginary demon of “White Supremacy.”

It’s a game that we must play, in order to survive in this Orwellian dystopia. Channel all the real anti-White mentality, which dominates every business and every government agency, into a Hollywoodish “racism” which is directed at all the nonwhites, especially the Blacks, by the evil, invisible “White Supremacists.” They are like QAnon’s “White Hats.” Powerful, biding their time. Yet unaffected and unseen by everyone. And to think that many of these believers in the “White Supremacist” hobgoblin will ridicule believers in God. They scoff at “your giant magic man in the sky.” Creation itself proves a Creator. What exactly proves “White Privilege?”

Most White parents were not moved when the odious “critical race theory” agenda became implemented in so many schools. What kind of brainwashing must one have undergone, to watch their precious kindergartner be berated by authority figures for being born with a special “privilege,” and then forced feel to guilt over something they can’t even comprehend, let alone be responsible for? A few irate parents confronted their tyrannical school boards, but other parents sat there submissively, watching them be escorted out of meetings by our brave police officers. If a child is indoctrinated like that at such a tender age, how hard will it be to deprogram him? Her? It? After all, young children will be asked to announce their chosen pronouns.

In 2008, for the first time in our history, there were more nonwhite births than White births recorded. Whites have been reproducing below the replacement rate for survival for years now. The average White woman is having 1.7 children during her lifetime, compared with 2.2 for Hispanic women. The replacement rate, which determines the number of children necessary for a continuation of the species, is 2.1. In 2022, White women had 55,000 fewer babies than the previous year, while Hispanic women had 50,000 more. Do the math. It’s not a complicated trend. The latest statistics show that Whites are now just over 57 percent of the U.S. population. Hispanics have grown to almost 19 percent. Blacks are mired at around 12 percent. But they can console themselves with being wildly overrepresented in popular media.

In 1960, almost 90 percent of Americans were White. There were very, very few nonwhite immigrants from other countries. Hispanics, a political catchphrase that wouldn’t be invented for another twenty years or more, were unknown. In London, one of the great cultural hubs of Caucasian civilization, the population has become increasingly nonwhite over the past fifty years. If you believe the likes of Nigel Farage, Whites are now a minority in London. Fortunately, those ever handy “fact checkers” assure us that this is “misinformation.” I don’t know, I’ve never been there, and I’m not willing to move there to find out. I do know their media reflects ours, with an astonishing overrepresentation of nonwhites, especially Blacks.

So how did this all happen? How does a “Great Replacement” work exactly? Well, it would be impossible without the cooperation of those who are being replaced. White females, especially, were conditioned into thinking that motherhood, particularly when combined with household drudgery, was something to be avoided. The tremendous increase in casual sex, and the availability of abortions. The channeling of the maternal instinct towards animals. Feminism created the “career woman” whose job, not family, was her top priority. Males enjoyed being the first generation to have the opportunity to have multiple sex partners. I knew very few males from my generation who didn’t pay for at least one, if not more abortions. With great relief.

At the same time, the White nuclear family was belittled and demonized in films and on television. Actors playing adult children were shown as being ostracized from their parents, and dreading the occasional interaction with them. We went from Ward Cleaver to Al Bundy in a very short period of time. Dysfunction was the norm in these productions, and it should be no surprise that those raised on this propaganda began living it out in real life. Life imitates art. Literally every family I know now is riddled with dysfunction. If you lose respect for the nuclear family, there is little reason for you to want children, which are the foundation of the family unit.

I fell prey to this a bit myself. I love children, and ideally wanted a huge family. But I limited myself to the then “new norm” of two kids. As a White boomer, I’d been conditioned to think “responsibly.” Children cost a lot. Can we really afford them? How many White couples have not asked themselves this question? When a White woman becomes pregnant by a White man, it’s often considered bad news, especially if they aren’t married. They mull over the options, and often choose abortion. Nonwhites, especially Hispanics, just as often consider pregnancy great news. They think of the baby as a blessing. The ultimate blessing. Their religious faith, which is usually Catholic, is stronger than mass media messaging.

My very large family is full of middle-aged White females with no children. I’ve heard any number of White relatives proclaim that they didn’t want children. Remember, almost all of them were raised Catholics, where huge families were common. I don’t understand this mindset, but my libertarian impulse is to say, fine- that’s your decision. But the problem is this decision didn’t happen naturally, at least in the vast majority of cases. They were brainwashed, propagandized, into thinking this way. It’s an unnatural way to think. And no other race thinks this way. Of course, because so many Whites accepted the programming, White birth rates began to plummet. Which was the foundation for the Great Replacement.

The Great Replacement started in the world of sports. As a sports fanatic, I saw this first hand. I witnessed the White coaches favoring Black players who were not any more skilled than their White competitors, and often had ugly characteristics that made them less valuable. Lack of impulse control, resulting in stupid penalties or fouls. Selfishness, especially in sports like basketball. Putting themselves first over the team. It’s not like sports weren’t fully integrated during the 1960s. Even then, Blacks were overrepresented, especially in basketball. But today, the NFL and NBA are utterly dominated by Black players, the majority of whom are affirmative action projects. They aren’t remotely qualified for their positions. They are replacements.

Replacements, of course, for the White athletes who used to be able to play professional sports really well. What happened to all those guys? When did Whites stop being able to play running back, wide receiver, and defensive back in the NFL? I live in the D.C. suburbs. One of the greatest football legends here is John Riggins, the great running back for the team formerly known as the Redskins. I have asked a few of what I call Drunk White Fans, just what they think would happen if Riggins came out of college today. “You know they wouldn’t let him be a running back, don’t you?” I gently remind them. “They’d force him to bulk up and block for the real athletes.” They usually respond with a blank stare and change the subject.

As someone who played a lot of sports, I feel somewhat qualified to say that most Black football and basketball players simply aren’t that great. They aren’t magically fast. They can’t jump magically high. But they look the part. They aren’t White, and that’s what counts. This is the Great Replacement, after all. Without great White athletic role models, it makes things far easier when beating down the self-esteem of young White males. The ones that have been trained to laughingly denigrate themselves as “White boys.” In baseball, the situation is a bit different. They can’t seem to get Blacks to play baseball any more. But if they do, they have a much better chance of making the Major Leagues. Otherwise, they import all the replacements from Latino countries, especially the Dominican Republic.

While Hispanics are being steered into taking over Major League Baseball, my old industry, Information Technology, is being taken over by H-1B Visa workers, mostly from India. I was one of the last Whites left standing when they fired me without warning in 2018, for helping out a handicapped co-worker. If you call virtually any government agency, you will get a Black female answering (if anyone answers), who invariably has a noticeable “Ebonics” accent, and surly “Excuse me!” attitude. Try getting any productive assistance out of any of them. But they’re probably making more than you. And certainly have better benefits and pensions. It’s very hard for the average White person to get a government job.

Speaking of Indians, they dominate the call centers for businesses as thoroughly as Black women dominate the phone representatives throughout government. The accents are frustrating to deal with, although I recognize they probably speak English more articulately than the average ‘Murrican. Iranians own every carpet store. Pakistanis and other nonwhites are the faces of every convenient store. So exactly where do all the White people work nowadays? We’re not extinct yet, after all. We have qualified as an endangered species for a long time. No one seems to care. It’s not like we’re some obscure rodent, or violent predator.

The entertainment world, especially the music industry, is utterly dominated by Blacks. And again, at only 12 percent of the population, there just isn’t that much talent to go around. Watch the Grammy awards. It’s indistinguishable from a BET awards show. These performers are not Chuck Berry, or Louis Armstrong, or Marvin Gaye, or Smokey Robinson. They are Affirmative Action replacements. Disproportionate Black presence is on full display now in movies and television shows. Commercials, in every format, feature almost all nonwhites and mixed race couples. An alien from another world watching our media would think that Whites are a minority. And we are heading in that direction.

Even the most entitled of all species, the hot White woman, is now under fire. For a long time utterly dominant throughout society, especially in popular culture, attractive White females are now being replaced, too. The “fat acceptance” movement has made physical attractiveness just another part of “White privilege.” So now we have obese lingerie and swimsuit models. And a disproportionate number of them are nonwhite. Which is consistent with the increasing number of fit actresses, singers, and spokespersons who are now nonwhite. If they decide to brand very wealthy White men who marry White “trophy wives” as “racists,” then it’s all over for the hot White chicks. I’m not alone in saying that the good looking White female is the crown jewel of human civilization. But I guess it’s “sexist” to say that. And “racist.”

I saw a tweet today from some self-proclaimed MAGA lady, who somehow has over 100,000 followers. That’s over 95,000 more followers than me. Color me envious, I guess. But I’d never write some virtue signaling pablum about being outraged over someone criticizing my mixed race family. The problem is, the picture she posted is clearly of a White family. Her husband and kids looked White. So the tweet made no sense. At any rate, she was virtual signaling nonetheless, and like most of the Right, she wants no part of Great Replacement theory. If we can just get more Herschel Walker types to diversify the Republicans, watch out! We want a big tent!

There is no one on the Right, even in the alternative media, who is pointing out just how successful the Great Replacement has been. Tucker Carlson mentioned it a few times, but Alex Jones won’t. As noted, while Vivek Ramaswamy brought it up, no White public figure is about to. I don’t think the great “racist” Donald Trump mentioned the word “White” during his four years in office. The golden days of emotional tweets, broken promises, and rescued Black rappers. Again, you don’t have to be proud of your skin color to express concern over your gradual annihilation. I’m not a “hater,” but I do hate the future being constructed for my children, and my grandchildren, if I’m fortunate enough to have them.

If someone was throwing rocks at your house, or tearing up your lawn, would you try to stop them? Even if they were nonwhite? Would you contact the police? If you saw a bigger child physically attack your child, would you intervene? Would you try to protect your flesh and blood? Well, by not protesting “critical race theory,” or White parents not protesting the obvious discrimination that occurs in organized sports against their children, they have shirked their basic responsibilities in life. If the majority of White parents complained about all the obvious unfairness, it might get results. Just like if the majority of White employees complained about the clear favoritism extended to nonwhites, especially Blacks, in the workplace.

But the vast majority of White parents are silent, as they’ve been now for a very long time. They silently absorbed all the disastrous, anti-White messages from Hollywood. They cheered on Black athletes, some of them guilty of but unpunished for violent crimes against women, as they were gifted prime positions over more skilled Whites. They accepted Affirmative Action. They did push back enough against the forced busing of students to stop it. They didn’t question the increasing prevalence of mixed- face couples in advertising, or the relentless anti-White male depictions across all forms of media. White males were, and are, portrayed as weak, soft, and unprincipled. Which, to a large extent, they have become in reality. Again, Life imitates art.

Most Whites bought the ridiculous mantra that “Blacks built this country.” Even the greatest White Supremacist of them all, Donald Trump, made this claim publicly. No, they absolutely did not. As slaves, they weren’t allowed to learn skilled trades. Whites, mostly ethnic English and Germans, built this country. For better or worse. Even after the slaves were freed, it was White men like my great-grandfather James Sullivan, working as a carpenter on the Washington Monument, that built this country. Whites let absurd claims of Black inventors become mainstream, resulting in preposterous “Black Studies” college courses. A Black didn’t invent the comb in the late 1800s. I saw Pocahontas’s comb in the Smithsonian years ago.

Because Whites sat there submissively in the face of such deadly disinformation, huge companies like Disney now feel confident in producing a remake of Snow White featuring an obnoxious actress who is not white in the lead role. The character was literally named that way because of her ultra white skin. So it’s Snow Brown. The Little Mermaid is now Black. So is Cleopatra. Some White male English king was recast, “blackened” into a Black woman in a Netflix film. And even though all these “Woke” monstrosities lose tons of money, those making them don’t seem to care. As I pointed out in my book Survival of the Richest, there are other, more powerful agendas at stake here. Profits don’t matter when the system is utterly rigged.

Former Washington Wizards player Gilbert Arenas reacted to Black NBA player Draymont Green’s most recent violent outburst, against White NBA player Jusuf Nurkic by declaring, “Taking care of these Europeans one at a time…Do your thing!” It is very easy to predict that there will be a total lack of outrage from anyone over this despicable statement. Picture any retired White athlete advocating that White players “take care” of African Americans. The hostility seemingly all Black celebrities feel for their White competitors goes back a long way. And it has never been properly addressed by any White authority figure. Thus, it will keep happening, and only become more extreme. Some day I’ll write that book on sports, and achieve the lowest social credit score in world history.

I don’t blame Black people for this situation. They didn’t pass the 1965 anti-White immigration act. They didn’t develop Affirmative Action. They didn’t come up with policies like “race norming,” which for decades allowed lesser qualified Black applicants to get police, firefighter, and other well paid government jobs over Whites who scored higher on the required testing. They didn’t popularize the Orwellian term “hate speech.” They may have complained about what “racist” Whites said in expressing their opinion on social media, but it was White authority figures who “cancelled” them. Every time. When we think of “Karens” we think of “Woke” White women, anxious to control the behavior of other Whites. Blacks actually could take far more advantage of the situation.

I’ll issue the caveat I always do when writing about race. After all, I think I’m just about the only White American who is coming at it from this perspective. I don’t hate Black people. I worked and socialized with hundreds of them over the years. In some ways, I liked most of them more than I liked most White people. But they are simply not held to the same standards that everyone else is. If you don’t apply the laws, the rules, and the expectations of conduct equally to everyone, then they are meaningless. No one should respect them. Certainly, at this dark stage of America 2.0, no White should have the slightest respect for them. This is the exclusive fault of White leaders, and I blame the average White person for not being outraged and calling it out.

On every single cultural issue, White people have “lost.” They capitulated to nonsense about amazing Black inventors, amazing Black Civil War soldiers, amazing Black female NASA scientists. They have accepted the doublethink that Blacks created powerful civilizations, and also contributed everything of substance while “building” America, despite being always held down by the evil White Supremacists. They weren’t allowed to do anything, and yet accomplished unprecedented achievements. This is the basis of “Black Studies,” or I guess it’s called “African American Studies” now. Either way, it is as full of factual information as a nightly CNN news broadcast. And those who have earned degrees in such a ridiculous major are now attaining positions of power. How do you expect any of them to treat White people?

It bears repeating; all this transpired while Whites held most of the reins of power in this country. At any given moment, they could have stopped the madness. They could have, and obviously should have, held Blacks to the same standards that everyone else is held to. Is is “racist” to demand that all people be held to the same standards? Am I a “hater” for supporting fairness? Equality under the law? Equality in the workplace? But any White employer, should one somehow exist somewhere, who attempted to enforce fairness and equality would find him/her/they/it selves out on the street with the first loud “excuse me!” response. “That’s racist!” holds far more sway in America 2.0 than “that’s unfair!” Not that many Whites even bother pointing out unfairness any more.

In South Africa, for the first time in the history of the world, one race of people willingly gave over power to another race of people. Whatever the reality of Apartheid was, once Blacks took power, they appear to have sought vengeance against average White South Africans. There are horror stories of rape and murder coming out of South Africa. I have no way of knowing how credible they are. But in America, White people have effectively ceded power as well. Not literally; our leaders still have mostly White faces. But they don’t represent average Whites any more than the African National Congress does. Everything they do diminishes White self-worth.

Whether it’s your very wealthy White “representative” in Congress, your local White school board member, or the meddlesome “Karen” on your block, America is full of self-hating Whites. Who spout anti-White rhetoric, as if directed to by puppet strings. Who don’t appear to appreciate that they are White themselves. One day, some Don Jeffries-type out there will answer their babbling with, “You do realize that you are White, don’t you? Are you including yourself in this blanket condemnation of an entire people? Your children? Your parents?” But thus far, no one has. Instead, they nod in appreciation as something else is labeled “racist.” Band-Aids. Birds. Sleep. When everything is racist, nothing is. At this point, the word is meaningless.

Vladimir Putin started urging Russians to have more babies several years ago. He was the only White leader at that time to talk openly about the destruction of the Caucasians. Now the president of Hungary, a female no less, Katalin Novak, says, “We must make starting a family an attractive option for the next generation.” They are setting up generous tax options, so that citizens benefit from having babies. The more they have, the more they benefit. How I wish our own abysmal leaders had offered something like that forty years ago. There might be lots of rabble-rousing Jeffries running around out there. Is this one reason why Putin is so demonized? Don’t look for Novak to win any mainstream popularity contests, either.

White people have to stop being scared to speak their minds on the subject of race. Why should Blacks and nonwhites have a monopoly in this regard? There is never a “dialogue,” it’s always a diatribe from some African Studies major, with cucked nods of encouragement from despicable White sellouts. It’s not wrong to care about those who look most like you, even if they are White. Not “of color,” even though White is a color. It’s your obligation as a parent to protect your children from being branded as having “privileges” they most decidedly don’t have. Point out that “diversity” shouldn’t mean less Whites.

Just during the time it took to write this article, we witnessed Boston’s nonwhite mayor Michelle Wu exposed for planning a Christmas party, exclusively for “electeds of color.” Regardless of the awkward, America 2.0 phraseology, this meant no Whites allowed. No Irish need apply. If you expected any indignant outrage from our compliant media, or some White leader somewhere, you haven’t been paying attention for the past fifty years. Wu didn’t issue the standard apology that every White guilty of some violation of “Woke” dogma does. Quickly and as cuckily as possible. And still gets cancelled. Wu dug her heels in, and the party went on as scheduled. Wu is, naturally, married to a White guy. You will hear no more about this. Google is already blocking searches on it. It’s just Whites. We’ve established their lives don’t matter.

In fact, the few bold Whites left in this dilapidated land were canceled themselves for posting the sensible mantra that “All Lives Matter.” The response from our White- majority elite is that, no, actually they don’t. Black Lives Matter supporters tore down statues, and burned cities across the country during the summer of 2020. While dear “racist” Donald Trump was president. Nothing was done, by Trump or any other Whitey. The police, known to shoot deaf jaywalkers in the back, stood down. Some of them kneeled alongside the rioters. If that didn’t tell you what was going on, I don’t know what would. We are witnessing a genetic apocalypse. There is a real chance that you could be prosecuted just for mentioning the Great Replacement.

Either race is important or it’s not. You can’t encourage one race to have absurd inflated egos about their skin color, while demeaning the skin color of another race, and punishing them if they attempt the mildest defense. Some races are not more equal than others. This isn’t Animal Farm. We should all be assessed by the content of our character, as Martin Luther King (who’d be attacked as a White Supremacist today) once said. I hate talking about race. But it’s their favorite subject. And because none of us wanted to talk about it, we stand on the brink of extinction. That’s something we should all be concerned about, and not afraid to combat. Some species never had this chance. Let’s not be wooly mammoths or dodo birds.

I’ve known many fundamentalist Christians over the past fifty years or so. They really weren’t that visible prior to the mid-1970s. I even sort of became one myself for a brief period. I remember writing a catchy song, “They Took my Bible Away,” which reflected my mindset at the time.

I have strong faith. But I do question God. Why He doesn’t intervene, in a world that appears to be run by his enemy. Why does Satan seem to have dominion here? All the tragic stories, especially of sick and dying children. Those born with horrible birth defects. Natural disasters that aren’t geoengineered. I don’t know how you can’t question those kinds of things. But I’ve never thought that God doesn’t exist. I believe that the self-evident creation of this world, from breathtaking waterfalls and majestic mountain peaks, to the gorgeous autumn foliage, to caterpillars transitioning into beautiful butterflies, is strong evidence of a supernatural hand, and one who values beauty. I refuse to accept that all of this just came about randomly.

When my mother died in 1987, I was looking for answers. I decided to read the Bible from cover to cover. Now, I tried to get through the Old Testament. I failed. The Old Testament is a pretty scary book, and the God depicted there is often frightening. Like Bob Dylan, I had difficulty understanding why God would ask Abraham to kill his son. Creating a bunch of imperfect creatures, and then flooding them for being imperfect? I’m trying to picture how much worse they could have been than the “Woke” lunatics running this world are now. But the New Testament is an entirely different story. In fact, Jesus seems so different from the God of the Old Testament that the Christian Identity movement was started, which I think postulates they are different Gods.

At any rate, it was easy to read the whole New Testament. More Christians really ought to try it. Much of it was comforting to me, at a time when I needed that. The Beatitudes, the Sermon on the Mount, ring clearly of eternal truth. I wrote a previous article here about the meek, and it just seems appropriate that they should one day inherit the earth. The Golden Rule is the essential foundation of the New Testament. It was a revolutionary concept to love thy neighbor as thyself, and even more revolutionary to love your enemies. Turn the other cheek? Has any other religion, or philosophy, advocated that? Do onto others. Walk a mile in my moccasins. There but for the grace of God go I. Christianity is at the heart of human empathy.

Oftentimes, Jesus sounded like the hippies would nearly 2,000 years later. He urged his apostles to give up all their possessions. He advised his disciples to pray in private, and not a make a public show of their faith. All those today who do make a show of their faith really ought to read that passage again. He overturned the tables of the moneychangers. Was this why, until the midpoint of the twentieth century, the Catholic church considered usury- the lending of money at interest- to be a mortal sin? Wouldn’t that make our entire banking system, and many individuals who loan money, mortal sinners by that standard?

I was raised a Catholic. I vaguely remember the Latin phrases, which were discarded after Vatican II. I think something was lost there. The Latin sounded beautiful, even to a very young child. I recognized early on that there was a lot of hypocrisy around me at every Mass. The women used to keep their heads covered in those days, and seemed to be checking out each other’s hats and dresses a bit too competitively. But then as I hit puberty, I started checking out the pretty girls in the pews a bit too inappropriately as well. I felt guilty about it, but I was a teenager. Like most boys my age, that was the main thing on my mind. All the time.

Confession was scary. I always dreaded getting a penance that included the Act of Contrition, which I had trouble remembering. Just give me a few Our Fathers and Hail Marys, please. To be honest, I really wasn’t confessing to any great sins. Talking back to and not always respecting my parents. Lusting after girls. I did steal a few candy bars when I was a kid, but I think I was too scared to confess to it. There would probably have been multiple Acts of Contrition meted out for something like that. And my first communion started a lifelong trend. Whenever I have received holy communion, the wafer invariably gets stuck to the top of my mouth, and I have to try and inconspicuously dislodge it. I was often scared it would be permanently stuck.

The Catholic church has many issues. Most Catholics are like me, fallen Catholics. Or even more that have no connection at all to the religion they were raised in. This really hit home when my daughter was about to be confirmed. I have a really big, supposedly Catholic family. And yet, I couldn’t find a single practicing Catholic among all those relatives, to serve as the adult standing up for her. I know most Catholics roll their eyes at the Church’s stance on birth control, for instance. Sure, it’s unrealistic, but I admire them for sticking to their guns. If you’re going to be be pro-life on abortion, it stands to reason that a consistent stance would be that sex is for procreation only. Unrealistic? Unpopular? Hopelessly out of step?

But the hypocrisy I saw in the Catholic church was nothing compared to what I’ve seen in the evangelical Christians. The “Born-Againers,” as I sometimes refer to them. The whole “born again” concept, along with the Rapture, and the inordinate attention to the Book of Revelation, are relatively new, and uniquely American. The Born-Againers take a single snippet from the New Testament, where Jesus says you can’t enter the kingdom of God without being “born again.” Of course, he also says it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. The Born-Againers don’t take that one literally. To be fair, it’s the most ignored and least favorite Biblical passage for almost all Christians. Except me. It’s my favorite. I bet Huey Long loved it, too.

That’s the thing about the Born Againers. They believe every word of the Bible is true, and must be taken literally. Except that eye in a needle thing. That one they’ll interpret for you, and leave you breathing a sigh of relief that, no, Jesus is not saying you shouldn’t pursue wealth and riches. It just sounds like that to the less pious. It’s a nondenominational thing, you wouldn’t understand. Their favorite verse seems to be the one about no one being able to enter heaven except through Jesus. They extrapolate this to mean no heaven without being “born again.” So devout Catholics, and protestants, if you haven’t formally accepted Jesus as your savior, in the manner they’ve devised, then you’ll be spending eternity with the atheists, Jews, and Hindus.

But the primary problem I have with most religious people is that they simply don’t walk the walk. They really know how to talk the talk, but they are often revealed to have fallen far short of their own lofty expectations for human behavior. Jimmy Swaggart immediately comes to mind. Jim and Tammy Baker fit into this category as well. If you’re advising your financial contributors to lead a holy life, you probably shouldn’t be sleeping with prostitutes or using donated funds to build an elaborate doghouse for your pet. Joel Osteen didn’t exhibit the slightest bit of public remorse when he refused to shelter victims of hurricane Katrina in his gaudy mansion.

This applies to most of the Born Againers I’ve personally known. There is one guy I used to work with, who does walk the walk in his personal life. Moral and upstanding, one of the few men I’ve ever known that doesn’t turn his head when some hot woman strolls by. Doesn’t drink or smoke or swear. And he doesn’t really preach. The others I’ve known, however, do preach. A lot. And they judge incessantly, even though the Bible advises us to judge not lest ye be judged. I guess that’s another part that’s not to be taken literally. Like that whole thing where Jesus lashed out at the Jews as the children of the devil, and told them they were like their father, the first and greatest liar of them all. If only Jesus had been referring to White Supremacists.

Meanwhile, their personal lives are often a mess. Many have been divorced and remarried. Sometimes more than once. One Born Againer couple I know just abandoned their adult son, because he wasn’t on board with their beliefs. He tried to commit suicide, and they wouldn’t even visit him in the hospital. He was living in a tent in the woods for a while. They literally don’t know whether he’s dead or alive. But they won’t miss Sunday services at their upscale nondenominational church. Maybe they pray for him. They just don’t contact him. The Lord works in mysterious ways. Another Born Again mother stopped contacting her son when he had the audacity to resent her using another Realtor to sell his childhood home. As a Realtor myself, I could really relate to that. They haven’t spoken in years.

There have been highly publicized cases of “holy” pastors having affairs. In one tragic case, the “holy” pastor impregnated a young girl. And then murdered her. Well, what else was a “holy” pastor to do in such a situation? Now, clearly that guy could not have feared being judged. Just like the priests that can’t resist the charms of the alter boys. You’ve taken a vow of chastity, and are supposed to symbolically be married to Jesus. So how do you cheat on Jesus? With an alter boy? Those priests could not possibly have been believers. Maybe they seek out the priesthood as a safe haven for their homosexuality? Especially if they like their males very young, I suppose. And the Church hierarchy ignores it like police superiors ignore all those cops gone wild.

Now I realize an undue amount of attention is paid to those Christian authority figures who reveal themselves to be unworthy sinners just like the rest of us. When the Dalai Lama publicly rhapsodized about French kissing a little boy a few years ago, it blew over pretty quickly. He wasn’t forced to resign, although I don’t know that Dalai Lamas can resign. They are “chosen,” like the Israelites I guess. And there was at least one rabbi who was caught propositioning a fake underaged victim on To Catch a Predator. Yet another rabbi recently bought porn hub, one of the biggest porn sites on the internet. I’m not sure how he juggles that with his religious wisdom, although I’ve never understood exactly what rabbis do. They are extremely well paid, however, as I detailed in my book Survival of the Richest.

Born Againers don’t believe anyone can go to heaven, simply because of the exemplary lives they may lead. Ironically, this includes all Jews, who they insist are still the “chosen” people of God. And as they are all arch-Zionists, they support Israel unconditionally. They just don’t think any of the citizens of Israel will be able to get into heaven. It’s complicated, as the young girls put it on social media. Christopher Hitchens even tried to debunk Mother Teresa. Maybe she was just a fraud, too, like all the people who seem to be saying good things, but are actually shills working for the Deep State. At least that’s what most of my friends in the alt media tell me when I get a crush on the likes of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Tucker Carlson or Vivek Ramaswamy.

It just doesn’t make sense to me that a person who doesn’t become a Christian for whatever reason, yet leads a good enough life to follow the Ten Commandments perhaps inadvertently, is damned to hell. And yet, theoretically a serial killer could repent on his death bed and enter heaven. I’m as inspired as anyone by the conversion of the criminal Saul into St. Paul on the road to Damascus, but that just doesn’t seem fair. If a person is kind, generous, and treats others nicely, I won’t consign them to the pit fire, just because they didn’t follow rote dogma devised more by man than God. Well, those identifying as men. Cisgenders.

Too many Christians, especially the Born Againers, pay far more attention to selected Biblical passages, than they do to being good people. When you won’t even help out your own children, exactly what kind of “Christian” are you? You might just as well be Warren Buffet, who whatever he is is probably not a Christian. He wouldn’t help his own granddaughter with her college tuition. According to the ever reliable Google, Buffet is presently worth some $117 billion. So, even with the skyrocketing costs of tuition, he probably could have comfortably afforded that. Maybe be an extra kind grandfather and not make her pay it back. Not helping others, including close family members, is expected of One Percent parasites. But not humble Christians.

Most of the ungrateful adult children who seldom visit their elderly parents, and would abandon Dodge City in an instant if threatened with having to care for them, don’t pretend to be Christians. Many of them don’t believe in God at all, or follow that Hollywoodish “New Age” spiritual thing, which holds that angels are among us, but there is no danger that anyone will ever be judged on what they do on this mortal coil. Well, except maybe the worst “racists” and “transphobes,” but even they won’t exactly be going to hell, since those wanting to punish them don’t believe in hell. Thus they’re in favor of treating them like the J6 prisoners. Hell on earth. But some adult children are Born Againers, and ignore the commandment to honor thy mother and father.

My view is that, if you’re going to demand that others be pious, you better be pious yourself. If you present yourself as being holy, you need to be living a holy life. So that means behind closed doors, you can’t be looking at porn on the internet. Or even worse, committing adultery. Worst of all, abusing your own children. But you’ll be certain to tithe ten percent of your income to the church. Even though there is nothing in the Bible demanding that you do that. Just like there is no “God helps those who help themselves” anywhere in scripture, either. But it’s always been a convenient way to shut up those pesky poor people. Who are they to question God?

I think the reason it’s always been possible for comedians like George Carlin or Bill Hicks to critique Christianity so effectively is because of this blatant hypocrisy. I’m sure it must be incredibly hard to live up to your own pious rhetoric. And the fact that so many who don’t keep getting exposed, just feeds the notion that Christianity itself is phony. I’ve often said that most Born Againers especially must seem like anti-missionaries to many they’re trying to convert. A missionary should be like Shoeshine Boy, Underdog’s secret identity; humble and lovable. Kind, generous, loyal. The heathens should be able to identify what you are by your actions. We’re all far from perfect, and this includes devout Christians. But we can all do better.

The Catholic religion doesn’t become discredited by priests lusting after alter boys. But the Catholic church does by not addressing the problem correctly. Jesus never said that priests can’t marry. Allow them to marry and have families. Many protestant pastors earn a nice income, and receive a home courtesy of their congregation. Maybe that’s the answer for Catholic priests. Priests used to swear a vow of poverty as well. If they can buy new cars and jewelry, why can’t they get married? And if the church hierarchy isn’t going to do anything about them having sex with male children, why shouldn’t they let them have sex with women and start families?

Much of the problem here revolves around man’s instinctual inability to stop impure thoughts, and impure actions if given the opportunity. Obviously few of us really think that God sees everything, if we behave in private as if he doesn’t. I don’t think you can use the “fake news” defense with God. I fear the improper thoughts that run through my mind all too often, but I’m not pounding a lectern and judging the improper thoughts, let alone actions, of others. If you smoke and drink in front of your children, you can’t be surprised if they grow up to smoke and drink, too. And if you’re a religious leader caught doing something you have railed against from the pulpit, you can’t be surprised if your flock rejects you.

My fellow boomers seem to have forgotten their own transgressions. The trespasses we ask to be forgiven for in The Lord’s Prayer. Virtually everyone I know at least tried marijuana occasionally. Many did speed, acid, or cocaine. I saw people having sex in closets at parties. I knew girls who’d had double digit abortions and/or triple digit sex partners. I really don’t see how any of them could punish their own children for doing drugs or having illicit sex. When they get to a certain level, they didn’t inhale, to quote the great Bill Clinton. The millennials are a far tamer lot from what I’ve seen. My own children were certainly a lot less wild than I was back in the America 1.0 days of yore.

At this point, you might be saying, “Hey, who is this guy, Mr. Complainer himself, to be talking about this subject?” Yes, I am critical to a fault. But I’m critical of those who conspire against the interests of the people. Who abuse their power. Frame innocent people. Send the children of other families off to senseless foreign wars. I’ve never done any of that. I would never abuse whatever limited power I have. I’d never frame someone for a crime, let alone sit on a jury that sent him to prison for life on incredibly flimsy evidence. I can say that war is for the profits of bankers and corporations, because I’ve never supported one. I would never condemn someone for having my own weaknesses, like admiring beautiful females. Biological females.

When I rant about the transgender agenda, it’s because I would never steer someone I love into ruining their life in such a cruel way. But I stay away from most issues of morality, because I know all too well about human frailties. I’ve been loyal to my wife for 38 years of marriage. But I recognize that, if some lovely young woman lost her reason and aggressively pursued me, then I could easily be tempted. That’s why I scoff at all the alleged sexual scandals involving JFK. If I were President of the United States, and a Marilyn Monroe wanted to sleep with me, that would be a very hard thing to resist. On the other hand, I feel confident that I’d never harass young underlings like Bill Clinton did. There’s a huge difference.

Sometimes I think that the worst thing religious faith has going for it is organized religion. Televangelists may rake in the money, but they repel untold numbers of people from faith itself. Polls say that a majority of Jews are atheists. I don’t know how it’s possible to be a member of a religion without a belief in God, but Jews claim to be a race as well. Hindus supposedly believe in thousands of Gods. Many Buddhists seem to be atheists, too. I’m sure there is a lot to spoof and satirize in Judaism, Hinduism, and Buddhism. But Hollywood has shockingly avoided them altogether, although they did briefly used to poke fun at the Hari-Krishnas.

It wasn’t until I began having earnest conversations with Born Againers that I saw the essential difference between Catholics and most protestants. Born Againers tend to scoff at “works,” or do-goodism. I’ve been chided for “trying to work your way into heaven.” Born Againers are all about faith. There’s a wise saying out there about faith without works. It just seems to me that if you’re lecturing others about being good, you ought to be good yourself. And I think to truly be good you must do good. Taken to its logical conclusion, someone like Tate-LaBianca murderer Tex Watson is assured of going to heaven, because he has become a Born Again preacher in prison. But I don’t think Sharon Tate was a Christian. So the guy who killed her is going to heaven, but she isn’t? I believe in redemption, but are there no limits?

My do-goodism these days is confined to my writing and podcasting. I try to stand up for justice, fairness, and the underdog with everything I say or write. I used to volunteer quite a bit, at the Special Olympics, and taught basic computer skills for an organization serving adults with mental challenges. I also coached youth sports for a decade. Then, as now, I tried to be honest and treat everyone decently. But I was supremely flawed then, and I remain supremely flawed. I call out official corruption, but not individuals abusing drugs, for instance. Unless they had declared from the pulpit that drug users are going to hell. Or are high profile drug users themselves, like Bill Clinton, who nevertheless allowed countless other druggies to go to prison while he was governor of Arkansas. Why have I mentioned Bill Clinton here three times?

I believe in God. I accept Jesus Christ as my savior. It’s obvious that those in power, whose corruption and tyranny is off the charts, despise Jesus. While purportedly not believing in him. If he’s just a mythological figure, why not treat him like Santa Claus? Santa Claus gets great press. Jesus gets ridiculed by the same culture. I know I am eminently unworthy. I’m a hopeless sinner. I’d never criticize someone for their morals, unless it involved things like murder, robbery, rape, abuse, etc. I fall short of my own expectations every day, but I know I’ll never murder or knowingly cheat someone. Even imperfect sinners should be above that.

Those of you who get something out of church; more power to you, as Briscoe Darling used to say on The Andy Griffith Show. I’m sure there must be honest parishes out there, run by people who are as holy as human beings can be. But there are far too many that remained silent in the face of the unconstitutional COVID lockdown, for instance. Who aren’t speaking out for free speech, and against politicized prosecutions. But even if they are “awake” to all the corruption, they need to lead good lives if they’re going to lecture others about their lives. Don’t invoke the name of God unless you’re in a truly special category. Like Mother Teresa, if Hitchens was wrong. He was a devout atheist, after all.

I hate it when people, and especially ministers and pastors, relish how someone is going to hell, or is already there. I don’t understand this. I get no pleasure out of imagining the worst people in the world- Hillary Clinton, Bill Gates, the recently dearly departed Henry Kissinger- burning for eternity in hell. And I don’t for a second think that I am qualified to judge just who is going to hell and who isn’t. No human being should, not even the Pope or the wealthiest fundamentalist preacher. He who will judge us all will be the only arbiter, and if we have faith we understand that He will judge more knowledgeably and fairly than we ever could.

To quote from a commercial advertising one of those nondenominational “super” churches, this is not meant to be a sermon, just a thought. Or more accurately lots of thoughts. I will always believe in God. I fear Him. How could I not fear a power beyond all human comprehension? I think we should judge others according to the way we want to be judged, which is another passage in the Bible which is apparently not meant to be taken literally. Maybe I’ve judged way too much here, in critiquing those who do judge. It’s hard to critically assess anything without judging. Religious faith has saved many from a life of crime. But if you expect to convert anyone, you need to do a better job of practicing what you preach.

Despite my self-evident cynicism and my reflexive skepticism, I am basically a trusting soul. Even though I know how corrupt and unreliable so many people are, still I instinctually give them the benefit of the doubt. Until proven otherwise, I assume most people aren’t dishonest, and take them at face value.

This kind of delicate balancing act is how I manage to issue blanket condemnations of the “Sheeple,” while still being concerned about the welfare, and the rights of The People, which includes those who are oblivious to the criminal tyranny all around them. It’s not easy being a populist, of promoting power to The People, when so many of them are brainwashed enough to lash out at messengers like me, who are simply trying to defend their civil liberties. Who knows how many of them would support throwing people like me into the FEMA camps, for pointing out how badly they’re being screwed? They’ve been conditioned to act like Pavlovian dogs, waiting for the bell to ring.

The odd thing about the Sheeple, who constitute a clear majority in decaying America 2.0, is that most of them are skeptical of salesmen, or salespersons, for example. Salestranspersons. They blanch at anything that seems “too good to be true.” They hate “get rich quick schemes.” Even if they were offered a perfectly legitimate check, for a substantial amount of money, without any contract to sign that roped them into something nefarious, they would still regurgitate the adage, “There’s no such thing as a free lunch.” The Sheeple really, really hate “free lunches,” even when they’re doing the eating. I thoroughly documented how there are “free lunches” in this rigged economy, in my book Survival of the Richest. But “free lunches” are only for the elite.

I understand this mindset to some degree. I hang up immediately on cold callers. Now that most of them are obviously from India, and are assigned ridiculously inappropriate ‘Murrican names, I sometimes respond with a snappy, “Not interested. And your name is not Kyle!” But the poor beggars at stoplights often get a few bucks from me. However, the Sheeple mentality is to suspect that these pathetic individuals have a devious, ulterior motive. I’ve seen them standing at the lights in really cold weather, or during a heavy rain. That’s a lot of trouble to go to for a dollar here or there. Doesn’t just standing there in inclimate weather indicate some kind of industriousness? I don’t consider that laziness.

But while the Sheeple are skeptical of those identifying as salespersons, and seemingly homeless people asking for a handout, they are shockingly accepting of the institutions that have failed almost all of them. You know, the ones that constructed a marketplace that ensures over 70 percent of them live from paycheck to paycheck. That permits about the same percentage to save less than $1000 for emergencies. A system that has turned the bottom half of the country into the biggest underclass the world has ever seen, with only a collective one percent of the total wealth in their portfolios. Well, to be totally accurate, actually less than one percent.

The Sheeple may question an individual insurance salesman, but they don’t question the insurance industry itself. I went over just how disastrous insurance is for almost all of us, in Survival of the Richest. If you have life insurance, the only way to “win” is to die as soon as you can. You must have auto insurance, for the “privilege” of driving. The Sheeple love to remind you of that. “Driving is a privilege, not a right,” they’ll babble confidently. Just make your payments on time, and you’ll be fine. But if you get in an accident every thirty years or so, your rates will go up, even if you weren’t at fault. Or you might even have your policy cancelled. So insurance is essentially a racket where money is extorted for things that might happen, but if they do happen, you’ll be in trouble. Again, unless you die. Then you win.

The Sheeple don’t understand any of the real rackets. The schemes that all the fake homeless people in the world couldn’t dream up. Medicare, for instance. I think I’m the only person in the world to be pointing out just what a bad deal Medicare is. Let’s see, you pay into this system your entire adult working life. When you receive this fantastic “benefit” after retiring, you are still required to pay a monthly fee. I think it’s more than $150 now. And your fantastic “benefit” only covers 80 percent of your “healthcare” costs. When I was a strapping lad way back in the halcyon days of America 1.0, that was the crappiest plan a worker could get. For years, 100 percent of my “healthcare” costs were covered under my employee plan. 20 percent of any medical cost can cause financial ruin. And Bernie Sanders wants “Medicare for all.”

Many Republicucks, of course, don’t want any Medicare at all. They don’t want any social safely net. It’s communistic. As Rush Limbaugh stated, before he died of cancer- the scourge that was introduced into the world a little over a hundred years ago, and could be “cured” the same way it was introduced- “healthcare” is not a right. It’s a privilege. Just like driving. You buy the “healthcare” that the rigged marketplace allows you to afford. Don’t live beyond your means. If you must die of cancer, do it and be quiet about it. Why should taxpayers have to pay for all your “wrong choices?” It’s not like taxpayers are paying a lot more for the despicable intelligence agencies, for instance, whose budgets remain top secret, a slew of other unconstitutional agencies, and for roads and power grids that remain unrepaired.

While most Americans seem to have lost their sense of empathy, the Sheeple are in their own category in this regard. They’re the ones who drove around with bumper stickers like “Shit happens and then you die” and “He who dies with the most toys wins.” As far back as the mid-1970s, they used to utter the charming “Sounds like a personal problem to me,” when some rabble-rouser like me would question something. Not all that long ago, during the early days of America 2.0, a bunch of Sheeple mobbing it up on Black Friday paid no attention to a man who had dropped dead in an aisle at Target. Couldn’t even call 911. Cleanup on aisle seven! Who else but Sheeple would venture out on Black Friday? For great imaginary “deals.”

The Sheeple are the ones who take out their rage on the roadways. Now, sometimes they do tailgate, and speed, but at least from my experience, they are control freaks that want to frustrate other drivers. Maybe I’m just unlucky, but literally every driver I get behind goes too slow. The only speeders are always behind me. Ironclad rule of the road- slow in front, fast behind. They are the ones who hesitate for ten seconds at a thirty second green light. And almost none of the Sheeple behind them will hit their horns. If they do, they risk an aggressive Sheeple- who surely won’t be aggressive about the loss of freedom- jumping out of his car and confronting them. How dare you remind me I wasn’t paying attention! You want me to call the cops? And it’s true, the police will always side with the Sheeple, because almost all of them are Sheeple.

The Sheeple support the endless wars, and probably are the vast majority of volunteer soldiers. The fact that some of them are wounded or die in these wars doesn’t deter their families from supporting the next unconstitutional and unnecessary foreign intervention. They sometimes receive medals posthumously, and flag-draped coffins never go out of style. While this works with Sheeple, others like my friend Cindy Sheehan, or the family of former NFL player Pat Tillman, can’t be assuaged so easily. Nobody who dies in these banker wars is a hero. One of the greatest antiwar voices of the twentieth century, JFK’s father Joe Kennedy, Sr., once asked parents to give a single good reason why their children should die in any war.

We’re kind of at war here ourselves, with the Sheeple. It’s them we must persuade and convert, if we’re ever to have enough of a majority to overthrow the yoke of tyrannical leadership. The Sheeple are the ones who serve on the juries that send citizens to prison for life without parole, on the basis of dubious, often retracted witness testimony. They understand “reasonable doubt” about as well as they understand the Bill of Rights. But they are also perfectly capable of acquitting defendants when the evidence seems stacked against them. They are especially effective at this when they are holding the fate of one of those incredibly rare wealthy defendants, and/or some kind of typically laughable America 2.0 celebrity, in their hands.

The Sheeple are the ones who vote the worst people on earth, our political “representatives,” back into office every election. At an average rate of some 96 percent. This is a lower level of turnover than existed in the Politburo at the height of the Soviet Union. So it’s something for the Sheeple to be proud about. That assumes, of course, that they are counting the votes honestly, or even counting them at all. But the Sheeple don’t believe in the possibility of electoral fraud. The homeless begging? Sure, that’s fraud. But our beloved leaders would never construct a system whereby it would be impossible to fire them by voting them out. While insisting that you have the power. Every vote counts! Just make sure you vote for the incumbent.

The Sheeple were at their worst during the Plandemic, the Greatest Psyop in the History of the World. Read all about it in my own Masking the Truth: How COVID-19 Destroyed Civil Liberties and Shut Down the World, the most shadow banned book in the world. Try to rate or review it on Amazon. Maybe they’ll let you. Many have told me their reviews were never put up. The Sheeple have never been more Sheeple-like than they’ve been since early 2020. Wearing their ridiculous masks everywhere, even when driving alone in their cars. Elbow bumping instead of shaking hands. No hugs or kisses. No farewells to grandma and grandpa. Mindlessly accepting the jab. Not protesting when kids suddenly start having heart attacks. Absolute obedience.

The Sheeple are the ones who adorn their vacuous social media pages with virtue signaling about being vaccinated, and Deep State propaganda like “I Stand With Ukraine.” Sure, they’ll brag endlessly about the amazing accomplishments of their children, or thought-provoking photos of their cats, but they’ll wear pink during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. And not ban an eye as women continue to die from it, despite all the “progress” made from the billions which have been raised. And they tear up at the endless St. Jude’s TV commercials, where half the time they reveal that the poor child in question has already died. But give us more money, because we’re doing wonders. I tear up too, when watching them, but for different reasons.

The Sheeple are the ones who create inane fads and trends. This goes back centuries, as was documented in the still interesting book Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds. Those identifying as female Sheeple are particularly good at this sort of thing. Wildly overpriced gourmet cupcakes come to mind. Past examples include the Mullet haircut. Or really “big hair” in general. That just didn’t age well. Bell bottom pants. And now, jeans with holes ready made in the knees. I had lot of pants that wound up like that. Who knew? If I could find them, I could be on the cutting edge. A logical extension of this would be socks with ready made holes in them. Now, everyone has a nice collection of those. How about shirts with ready made stains? The wrong people are already wearing pants that reveal their ass cracks. So many possibilities.

So the Sheeple are always enthusiastic, when it comes to popular trends. Which are dictated, of course, by the same corrupt authorities they inexplicably trust. Many of these trends nowadays come from some of the least educated minds out there, in the glamorized “‘hood.” Pants worn hanging down below the waist. Baseball cap worn sideways. But the Sheeple faithfully follow, even to the point of culturally appropriating the pidgin English of the ghetto. Don’t ‘dis me! She’s a ho! My bad. What up? The supposedly most intelligent among us, those with twice the IQs of those they emulate, throw up their hands and celebrate improper grammar as “Ebonics,” as if were Latin. They are “educated” Sheeple. They good.

When you talk to an average Sheeple about the “magic” bullet in the JFK assassination, or the collapse of Building 7 on 9/11, their misguided Spidey Sense gets activated. Uh, oh, sounds like one of those “conspiracy theories” the pure hearted, not overpaid, “investigative” journalists on television warn us about. They know “disinformation” when they hear it. They’re ready to call the “If you see something, say something” hot line, if it still existed. Of course, Alex Jones called it on air and found they never answered. It’s a psyop thing, you wouldn’t understand. They fear “Hamas,” or “Isis,” or whatever the momentary “terrorist” de jure is being labeled. But not no-knock SWAT team raids from our own law enforcement. Unless it happens to them, of course. Which it never will. What do you care, if you got nothing to hide?

I sometimes wonder what the ratio of People to Sheeple was at the time of the War for Independence. Or during the Civil War. Surely, there were plenty of them even then. But our Founders certainly couldn’t have started out the Constitution with “We the Sheeple.” That would have been offensive. I mean really offensive, not “I need a safe space with my support animal” kind of “offensive.” I think the Founders spoke of an ideal “People,” one that would value and cherish their own liberty. Certainly today, there are more people (well, Sheeple) that don’t value their own liberty than do. After all, they’ve heard that such things “threaten democracy.” Like protesting the results of an election. Or questioning something about a widely reported event.

I am so grateful for the many people who contact me, every day, and say kind things about my work. Who all do value their human liberty, and furthermore care deeply about the woeful future we are ensuring for our grandchildren. Our children are already living it. They know the bleak reality of very few opportunities. Of only a fraction of jobs that pay enough to live independently, let alone build the middle-class lifestyle their parents enjoyed. Of dating apps, and potential lawsuits over an “inappropriate” touch or even remark. Of Bidenonmics, which have left many of them relegated to taking Uber to their lowly paid job. A job that doesn’t pay them enough to buy their own vehicle, and pump their own wildly overpriced gasoline.

I wonder what Huey Long thought in private about The People. He was the last public official to do anything of substance for them, after all. Maybe they weren’t as dumbed down then, even in Louisiana, where until he came to power, they were woefully uneducated. When I mention sharing the wealth, which was Huey’s signature issue, to people, they recoil like frightened animals, and hiss (well, it kind of sounds like a hiss), “that’s just class envy!” I think about 80 percent of Americans should be envious of people that “earn” as much with one tax-free “performance” bonus as they will be paid for working centuries at their pathetic salaries. 80 percent of Americans must lose, like in the casinos, so that 20 percent can continue to win.

The reason I love watching Frank Capra films is because they always reinvigorate my populist impulses. My latent idealism. My perhaps naive belief that even the Sheeple can be moved and inspired to open their minds. To see that the emperor is stark naked. That’s why I still love the secular holiday season. Charles Dickens, in the greatest single story from English literature in my view, showed that there is hope for even the most hopeless of us. If the Ebenezer Scrooges of the world can be redeemed, like Saul on the road to Damascus, why not the most obstinate Sheeple in America 2.0? Imagine all the happiness and generosity we see during the holidays becoming the norm. The “new normal,” if you will. But now I sound like a Hallmark card.

When I’m watching It’s a Wonderful Life for the billionth time, I don’t see Sheeple. I see We the People. I’m as full of perhaps irrational optimism as I used be when getting roaring drunk back in the wild, wild days of the late 1970s-1980s. Dancing with a figurative lampshade on my head. Throwing my arms around everyone and planning impossible things, which would make the world a much better place. Now I never get drunk. Maybe I should start drinking again. I was a great drunk. Never tried to start trouble. People loved being around me. Considering how outgoing and talkative I am sober, it is hard for those who know me now, but didn’t then, to picture me being even more personable, but alcohol had that effect on me.

I have a quixotic relationship with The People. And it’s because of all the problems the Sheeple cause. One can legitimately say that the Sheeple cause all the problems. Because of their unbreakable trust in the powerful villains who conspire against the public, including them, as a means of doing business. Because of their willingness to swallow the most foul-tasting propaganda imaginable, from false flags to social distancing. Because of their inability to judge character or motive, when it involves anything of true significance. Maybe I’ve developed a new kind of Stockholm Syndrome. A new variant, to use their own language.

I know they’re sound asleep. I’ve tried unsuccessfully to wake enough of them up over the years. I know they’d be ungrateful, even if were possible to help them. I know they’d call the authorities on me in a heartbeat if they were offered the most modest reward for reporting Thought Criminals. They’ll talk behind your back, be unfaithful, be unappreciative, cause you pain, yet maintain the ability to see themselves as being victimized. Looked at logically, The People aren’t worth caring about, because so many of them are Sheeple. But loving thine enemy as thyself obviously includes loving Sheeple. Power corrupts, and always should be decentralized. Even if those who benefit from it aren’t worth it. I can’t help it. I was born a populist.

I watch a lot of movies. I used to watch a lot of television. And I seem to notice things that most others don’t. My tendency to critically question everything ensures that many people close to me, especially my female loved ones, leave the room when I’m watching something. The males, however, appreciate my running commentary.

At one point, I wanted to write a script for a prospective sitcom or film comedy, which incorporated all the common tropes seen onscreen. But where would I send it? Hollywood doesn’t take unsolicited screenplays or manuscripts. Half the restaurant servers in Tinseltown are peddling them. And they can’t get someone to read their work, except perhaps if they wait on the right big shot who finds them physically attractive enough to invite them to the casting couch. I’ve never been in a position to wait on anyone who’d be willing to consider my work in return for sexual favors. I probably wouldn’t be their type, anyways. And now I’m way too old for any of them.

Maybe those unseen screenplays from waiters and waitresses yearning to break into show business contain some valuable and entertaining stuff. Some of them might be original thinkers, who shake their heads at the same tropes and propaganda I do. If they’re pushing something fresh and original, then they are out of luck, even if they say yes to all the bald headed film moguls in the city. Every script must spin a modern “Woke” leftist message. Black characters must be wildly overrepresented, and must all be strong and positive. Females must all be physically tough, and ready to verbally abuse or physically overpower any White male character. Their great strength and confidence often wilts in the presence of nonwhite males for some reason.

Leading ladies can still be quite pretty, but have to all wear that resting bitch face. They need to look pissed off all the time, especially in the presence of White males. When nonwhite males enter the picture, their resting bitch expressions visibly soften. White male characters can never be alpha. They are weak, submissive, and usually the butt of jokes from White females and nonwhites of all genders. Mixed race couples are always encouraged. Characters will usually reside either in a New York apartment, or an upscale home in the suburbs. You won’t see any primary characters living in a lower middle class townhouse, for instance. If the film is about “the hood,” then of course the Black characters will be mired in poverty. But glamorous poverty.

The plots must be either redundant of something that has been done countless times before (jewel “heists,” hackneyed bullies in high school, all romantic comedies- or “romcoms,” as they call them now), or a compelling concept, which is then never developed. These types of films invariably are also never resolved. They just end, and you wind up saying, “that’s it?” Well, at least I do. When they hint at something conspiratorial, it always winds up being the work of some secret private company, run by a startlingly non-diverse group of evil White men. Never the government. And the evildoers are never “diverse,” like the multicultural heroes always are.

I notice tropes that don’t even make sense in any propagandistic fashion. Watch how often characters, going back decades, leave their car doors open when jumping out. Guess Hollywood vehicles have special batteries or something. Whenever anything weird is afoot, or if some character is about to contract a deadly illness, they have a little blood leaking from one nostril. The old falling down when running from danger thing isn’t as popular as it used to be. But characters still wait far too long to react to danger. They tend to stare irrationally, and then start to slowly back away, instead of instantly moving as fast as they can. I guess that’s for dramatic effect.

Some of the old tropes no longer are useful. For instance, the old writing to a pen pal, and exaggerating your own accomplishments, then finding out the pen pal was doing the same thing. This was done in countless old television shows. The classic main character serving on a jury, and being the lone holdout against conviction, is no longer wanted. Our corrupt state doesn’t desire to advance the notion that there should ever be holdouts against conviction. It’s the modern jury’s job to convict, and they do a really good job of that. Also, they have dropped the old washing machine being loaded with way too much soap and overflowing routine. It’s too America 1.0.

Because there are no more alpha males onscreen, well at least not White ones, the main tropes from the action films that made the likes of Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger stars are being slowly weeded out. I haven’t seen any of Vin Diesel’s work, or that of former WWE star “The Rock,” so they may still have these tropes in their derivative movies. You can’t make action films, after all, without action. But neither Diesel or “The Rock” are White. So that explains that. So I guess they still have the inane, impossibly long car chases. The vehicles exploding into massive fireballs upon impact. The main characters still being a lot harder to shoot than the secondary characters. It’s a Batman thing, you wouldn’t understand.

The superhero genre still makes the most money for what’s left of Hollywood. For several years, superhero movies and their fan base’s insatiable appetite for them, was all that kept Hollywood afloat. Now the superhero movies are failing, too, because they’ve been converted into more “Woke” propaganda. Mostly female and nonwhite heroes. Still mostly White villains, but the occasional “super” Black bad guy will pop up now. The recent failure of The Marvels exemplifies how even the loyal comic book audience may finally have had enough of “Woke” revisionism. So all these tropes may be coming to an end. You can’t trope if no one is buying your product.

In real life, offscreen, there are also many tropes. Some of them just as baffling as the ones dreamed up by script writers. Most people will mindlessly nod when someone says, “The exception proves the rule.” As Ambrose Bierce pointed out, this is the opposite of the truth. The exception challenges or disproves the rule. Why do we call someone in their 50s “middle age?” Even before life expectancy in our Banana Republic started plunging down, this was inaccurate. Why are some occupations referred to as “professional?” Why can’t retail clerks, or construction workers, or the remaining housewives in this country be considered “professional” too? Doesn’t such a designation mean that the rest of us are unprofessional?

The real life trope goes that, if you confiscated all the money in the world, and then divided it up equally between everyone, that pretty soon all the wealth would be back in the same One Percent hands. The ones who were born wealthy. Started on third base and thought they hit a home run. I don’t know, I’d like to see that trope proven. Try it out, just for a laugh. This goes along with the trope, “Nobody ever gave me anything.” Well, actually most of those peddling this trope phrase it, “Nobody ever gave me nothing.” They are the ones who basically have nothing, but are terrified some redistributionist is going to take it away from them. It’s usually coupled with, “I worked hard for what I have.” Which is, again, essentially nothing. You did work.

As a long time licensed Realtor, I hate the trope that goes, “you don’t mix business with family.” Right. So you pay some stranger big commissions, if you’re selling a property, and cause another seller to pay some stranger, if you’re buying a property, instead of someone you know and supposedly love. For doing the exact same thing. I’ve been stabbed in the back by this trope by too many family members and allegedly close friends to even keep track. The trope makes no sense. Why would a family member screw you over- and in the case of Realtors it’s not easy to do that- when they will have to see you for the rest of their lives, so you can remind them again and again? If anything, a family member would work harder for you, just so they don’t have to be nagged about it.

There is an unspoken trope, that runs throughout the business world. This trope compels management to punish all employees for the action or actions of one. Instead of confronting and addressing the behavior of the problematic worker, a memo goes out that takes some former perk away from all. No more personal phone calls. No surfing non-business related internet sites. If the worker in question seriously abused sick leave, then now all employees must present a doctor’s note when calling out. If they were arriving at work 30 minutes late on a regular basis, then even the most punctual workers must be monitored more closely. Truth be told, this trope is tied to the fact that an undue percentage of the workers abusing company policies happen to be Black. So the White cucked management dreamed this up.

On a personal level, I’d like to have a dollar for every old friend or long lost family member who told me, “We have to do this again real soon.” It’s similar to the trope we all sometimes employ by telling those who’ve gone through some tribulation, “Let me know if there’s anything I can do.” Maybe someone, somewhere, has actually let someone who said this know about something they could do, but I doubt it. It’s a polite trope, though. Like greeting someone by saying, “How you doing?” or “How’s it going?” We don’t expect a reply that details how things are going in their life. As Ambrose Bierce defined it, politeness is the most acceptable form of hypocrisy.

A trope that I’ve heard from members of my own family, which is obviously shared by most Americans, is that “relatives living with each other causes problems.” This trope is often cited by the typical adult American child who wants to avoid caring for their elderly parents at all costs. And it makes no sense. Obviously, the same parents lived with their young children for at least eighteen years. While caring for them. Changing their diapers. Tucking them in at night. Reading bedtime stories to them. Comforting or encouraging them when they needed it. But when it comes time for them to switch roles, from the cared to the caregiver, adult children often cite this self-serving trope.

Tropes can change with the times. Currently, “destination weddings” are all the rage. At least for those from families that can afford it. This goes along with the trope that a bride can get married pretty much anywhere except in a church. For a while, vineyard weddings were popular. Then barn weddings. These wedding tropes all have one thing in common; to make the ceremony more expensive for the bride’s family. And, of course, we’ll wind up paying, because we want the best for our children. Since weddings are rarely performed in churches now, no need for a minister or a priest. The trend is for friends to preside over the ceremony, with their mail order reverend credentials. This is especially desired for same-sex weddings.

Many Hollywood tropes became real life tropes. Thanks to films and television, countless young girls chose the “bad boy” over the boring nice guy next door. This alone contributed to the family dysfunction which now is the norm in America 2.0. Nice guys don’t get very far, onscreen, or in real life. Unless they can get tough, which some of them can. Nice guys finish last and all that. Nice guys, of course, can only finish last in a system run by non-nice guys. A society that doesn’t value niceness. It’s pretty obvious that this describes our crumbling civilization perfectly. American females have been indoctrinated in the belief that nothing is worse than “boredom.” Drama queens onscreen lead to drama queens in real life. The selfie culture.

In every Hollywood low-class “comedy,” there must now be at least one obligatory vomiting scene. They have to show the vomit. And male nudity. Male butts dominate potty comedies. And increasingly penises as well. The roles have been completely reversed from the 1970s. It’s almost all male nudity now. Tough talking, ass kicking females. Soft, low testosterone males. Often naked. There is no variation. You will not find a film or television show with a meek, wallflower female character. All females onscreen are utterly fearless. Risk takers. And you won’t find a White male character who confidently stands up to any female. The alpha White male is nowhere to be found onscreen, and is becoming extinct in real life.

I don’t care for most tropes. Not from Hollywood, and not those which have become thoughtlessly ingrained in our culture. Make your own tropes. You can have self-esteem without becoming unbearable. You can be strong and gentle at the same time. You don’t have to be a bully or a victim. Politeness may sometimes be hypocritical, but it is the most acceptable kind. Be loyal to your family members who are trying to earn a living. Care for your aging parents, like they cared for you. If you’re a 100 lb. female, don’t try to fight a 200 pound man. You will only win on film. Be cutting edge- get married in a church. In your community, so people don’t have to pay for a “destination.” When you get out of your car, close the door behind you.

The title of this subversive little missive comes from a quote by Harry Patch, the last surviving soldier from World War I. The great Smedley Butler said that war is never about enemies, but opportunities for profit. Butler was one of Huey Long’s closest friends, and retreated from politics after the Kingfish was assassinated.

Jeanette Rankin was the only member of Congress to vote against WWII, and had to have a police escort out of that sanctified temple of democracy afterwards. She noted that “You can no more win a war than you can win an earthquake.” She explained, in her unique fashion, “As a woman I can’t go to war, and I refuse to send anyone else.” Her courageous stance ruined her political career. Then, as now, it wasn’t popular to stand for peace. In my view, she is the greatest woman in American history, and should have her likeness on a fiat currency bill over Harriet Tubman or any other female. I’m confident that only a very small percentage of today’s dumbed down Americans have even heard of her.

The last war that America was justified in fighting was the War of 1812. Our shores were undeniably invaded. The White House was set on fire. They say that Dolley Madison saved the Gilbert Stuart painting of George Washington. Of course, they say a lot of things. Still, picture Hillary Clinton or Michelle Obama doing something like that. I’m no literal pacifist. You have to defend yourselves and your family when you are being attacked. I don’t count the Pearl Harbor false flag. FDR might as well have been flying one of the Japanese planes himself. Every other war revolved around a dubiously perceived threat emanating from one of those “foreign hobgoblins” that the great H.L. Mencken so colorfully described.

James Polk was elected president on a saber rattling platform. A warlike stance rarely fails in American politics. The 1848 invasion of Mexico was not only unconstitutional, the atrocities committed there created resentment that lingers even today, in groups like La Raza. Ironically, one of those who opposed this unnecessary skirmish was Congressman Abraham Lincoln. Honest Abe wouldn’t bat an eye just over a decade later, when he ignored his own advice and pushed for the bloodiest war in our history. That internal conflict shattered the old Republic, and made a mockery of the guiding principle behind our War for Independence. The Confederates didn’t consent to those governing them. Period. As the first Imperial President, Lincoln set countless ugly precedents that paved the way for today’s America 2.0.

The Civil War was unlike all our others. The enemy wasn’t a foreign bogeyman. It was, in too many cases, someone’s brother or cousin. Such a sad internal bloodletting was simply permitted to happen. As I pointed out in my book Crimes and Cover-Ups in American Politics: 1776-1963, not a single public official tried to stop it from happening. The pointless carnage wiped out one quarter of the young males in the south. We became the United States, singular, as a result. Centralized government won. Press censorship won. Lack of due process won. “Total War,” the scorched earth policy, won. The Imperial Presidency won. Nothing good came out of it. This includes freeing the slaves, something the Emancipation Proclamation didn’t in fact do.

The court historians tell us that the greatest presidents preside over wars. In 1898, a reluctant warmonger, William McKinley, would be pressured into our disastrous venture in Cuba, which further crossed the unconstitutional line that was first seen in Mexico. One of the most aggressive proponents of the ridiculous Spanish-American War was young Teddy Roosevelt, who would become McKinley’s second vice-president after Garret Hobart died at just fifty five. Which put Teddy into a convenient position to assume the presidency when McKinley was assassinated a few years later. The first real false flag came with the misrepresented sinking of the Maine. Remember it. As William Randolph Hearst put it, they gave us a damn war.

Woodrow Wilson was, like Lincoln, a phony who masqueraded as a voice for peace. He ran on a campaign to keep us out of the European war, but once elected president he conspired behind the scenes to get us involved. Franklin Roosevelt was even busier finagling us into the next world war, despite saying, “I’ll say it again and again and again: your boys are not going to be sent into any foreign wars.” FDR was the first of the great chicken hawks. He never came close to any field of battle, but lusted for any armed conflict. His chicken hawk descendants are everywhere today, from Bill Clinton to Lindsey Graham. The entire neocon movement consists of laughably weak chicken hawks. They all talk very loudly and carry no stick.

Over the past few decades, we’ve seen the birth of the initial band of female chicken hawks. Hillary Clinton is literally the anti-Jeanette Rankin. Like her draft dodging husband, she has been enthralled with all our nonsensical foreign interventions since the Vietnam War. We came, she saw, and they died. The very word “peace” would get stuck in her throat, perhaps choking her to death. Picture a vampire saying “Jesus Christ.” Today’s peace movement, such as it exists, is thanks to Gerald Celente, Cindy Sheehan, Cynthia McKinney, and a handful of others. Peace has never been more unpopular. Considering our history, that’s really saying something.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is an unlikely warmonger. After all, his uncle, President John F. Kennedy, was the only president in American history who disobeyed orders from his hidden masters in this regard. After being left hanging out to dry following the Bay of Pigs disaster, JFK fired the top three officials in the CIA, including director Allen Dulles. Then he resisted pressure from the entire Joint Chiefs of Staff, and every leading figure in the Pentagon, and remained cool during the Cuban Missile Crisis. He began the withdrawal from Vietnam shortly before his death. This was all reversed by LBJ, of course, following the events in Dallas. JFK signed his death warrant with his June, 1963 American University “peace” speech.

RFK, Jr. has been tweeting out some pro-peace comments recently. In one tweet, he vowed, “I won’t send our troops abroad for oil wars or regime change wars. Once elected, I will give veterans a formal say in shaping policies that are pro-veteran and pro-peace.” Commenting on the pathetic Republican debate, RFK, Jr. tweeted, “Now they’re talking about war with China. These people are obsessed with it. No wonder our domestic economy and infrastructure is quickly deteriorating to Third World status.” In another tweet, he declared, “As President, my loyalty is to you. Not foreign wars going nowhere.” His critique of the Republicans could have come from me.

He further lashed out at the Republicans for talking only about war, and being “more interested in Ukraine’s border than our own.” He publicly calls Julian Assange a “hero,” and quotes from Orwell. On the latest crisis in the Middle East, he tweeted, “It didn’t take long for the neocons in Washington to spin the Hamas terror attacks to advance their agenda of war against Iran.” He even criticized our massive foreign aid, including the latest $14.3 billion to Israel. RFK, Jr. seemed to be echoing his uncle’s rhetoric some sixty years before. In addition to all his other overtures for peace, JFK was also the last president to challenge Israel. At the time of his death, he was engaged in a battle with David Ben-Gurion over Israel’s developing nuclear program.

So how do we juxtapose these consistently laudable comments with RFK, Jr.’s reaction to Hamas attacking Israel? “This ignominious, unprovoked, and barbaric attack on Israel must be met with world condemnation and unequivocal support for the Jewish state’s right to self-defense. We must provide Israel with whatever it needs to defend itself—now.” Kennedy tweeted. “As President, I’ll make sure that our policy is unambiguous so that the enemies of Israel will think long and hard before attempting aggression of any kind. I applaud the strong statements of support from the Biden White House for Israel in her hour of need.” He went on to note, “we must follow through with unwavering, resolute, and practical action. America must stand by our ally throughout this operation and beyond as it exercises its sovereign right to self-defense.” Hard to believe all these comments came from the same person.

When Vivek Ramaswamy’s mild attempts at even-handedness towards the Middle East situation is the best you have, you know your political process doesn’t represent America’s interests. Our kind of “bipartisan,” interventionist foreign policy is incompatible not only with peace, but with national sovereignty. Ironically, while meddling in the affairs of several other nations, who represented no threat and had never done us harm, our bold leaders have permitted a real invasion to go unchecked for over forty years. If the continuous stream of migrants through our open southern border isn’t an invasion, what would be? While usurping endless authority not granted to it under the Constitution, our government has refused, and still refuses, to perform the most basic requirement of any nation- to protect its borders.

When Donald Trump, in his customary fashion, threatened to do the logical thing, and bring home the troops that nonsensically remain in some 150 countries around the world, the establishment was aghast. How absurd would that be- to remove these troops that serve no purpose whatsoever, and use a fraction of them to guard our own southern border? Just hinting at that brings out the kind of venom reserved for transgender rights and “White Supremacy.” The war fever our “representatives,” state controlled media, and mindless public all habitually suffer from doesn’t feature an affinity for defending the border. In fact, American war fever includes a chronic opposition to guarding the border at all. Well, at least the southern border.

The innate American love for war reflects many of our quaint traditions. The notion that disputes can be settled by “taking this outside.” Good parents teach their children that might doesn’t make right. But everything they experience suggests otherwise. Certainly the culture promotes might makes right relentlessly. If someone can beat someone else up, they were right. They become virtuous. I covered all this extensively in my book Bullyocracy. A society that respects bullies, that thinks “nice guys finish last,” is not likely to be attracted to nonviolence, or peace. There’s a reason why so many politicians, including presidents, came from the military. War heroes have always naturally garnered votes. Who else could be an effective Commander-in-Chief?

I have often observed how the qualities society admires the most- assertiveness, self-confidence, “toughness,” are the traits that bullies, and psychopaths in general are renowned for. Society doesn’t respect the qualities that most rational people are attracted to; kindness, gentleness, fairness, empathy, etc. They are the characteristics of the weak. The losers. “Winners” are strong. They can beat you up. That’s why they’re winners. As Father Flanagan might have said back in 1930s Hollywood- “Put the gloves on and let’s settle this in the ring.” Or the fields of war. That’s how we “settle” things. Whoever has the bigger punch, or the bigger bombs, is the winner. Which makes them right. Just ask the history books, which are written by the victors.

Nikki Haley screams, “Finish them off!” In other words, kill all the Palestinians. They’re all “terrorists” aren’t they? No one criticizes her. Rashida Tlaib makes some very reasonable comments, and she is censured by Congress. Funny, they usually love her anti-White rhetoric. Some controversial comments are more equal than others. RFK, Jr. sure sounds entirely different when the subject is Israel. Tulsi Gabbard threw aside her usual proclamations for peace and insisted that she, too, “stands with” Israel. Who doesn’t? Nobody in Washington, D.C. The old expression about identifying those really in charge, by who you’re not allowed to criticize, comes to mind here. There is no other conclusion that can be drawn.

But leaving Israel out of it, the American public continues to fall for the same stale propaganda that has been used since 1898. Well, really 1860. Lincoln was the first to call those opposed to war “appeasers,” and insinuate that by doing so they were working with the enemy. And there is always an enemy. You can’t have a war without one. Dubya wasn’t quite as poetical as Lincoln, but he echoed him with his “You’re either with us or you’re with the terrorists.” America- love it or leave it, as they used to advise the hippies. Now the aging hippies basically advise the nonexistent “White Supremacists” to do the same thing. It’s a selective patriotic thing, you wouldn’t understand. But Winston Smith would.

The greatest antiwar activists in American history are largely forgotten. Clement Vallandigham, who was arrested in the middle of the night by Lincoln’s uniformed thugs. Eugene Debs, thrown in jail for protesting WWI. Even the socialist tag doesn’t help his reputation. As I will show in my upcoming The American Memory Hole, many WWII protesters were imprisoned as well, and have been ignored by the court historians. To be fair, the court historians ignore a lot. They have to; it’s the only way they could possibly promote the nonsense they do. Huey Long. Smedley Butler. John T. Flynn, classical liberal journalist and head of the New York chapter of the America First Committee, whose career was “cancelled” by the great FDR himself.

Who remembers the poor Irish immigrants who took to the streets of New York for the Civil War draft riots? Who remembers Abbie Hoffman now? My friend Cindy Sheehan was once lauded by the Left when her protests were against then President Bush. But when she pointed out that Obama was the same kind of warmonger, she lost too many “liberals” who had absorbed the new narrative. The “Woke” Left wants nothing to do with any antiwar sentiments. It’s Climate Change, racism, and trans rights. The “Woke” Left supports all war, all the time. And the corrupt intelligence agencies. The FBI is your friend, as long as it’s going after Trumpenstein. As for the Right, you can SWAT team any home you want, unless it’s Mar-a-Lago. Then we have a problem. But the police, and the “troops” are still on “our” side.

It’s the warmongers who get remembered in the history books. George Washington certainly isn’t remembered for his Farewell Address, which is contradicted by every foreign policy decision made from the beginning of the twentieth century, with the exceptions noted earlier during the Kennedy presidency. We love the “Old Ironsides” types. The “Give ‘em Hell” types. Who remembers Henry David Thoreau, the originator of nonviolent civil disobedience? Those urging peace, and cautioning against war, are smeared as “appeasers.” Wussies, as they used to say. That’s probably an offensive term now, what with the whole fifty seven genders thing. But maybe “wussy” is one of those genders. Who knows? Can you name fifty six others?

I just missed being drafted for the Vietnam War. I was already making plans to go to Canada. I was very fortunate that the meaningless quagmire ended when it did. Like all wars, it was stupid. And benefited no one but the bankers and huge corporations. Bell Helicopter, for example. “War crimes” is a misnomer, as all war is criminal by its very nature. When else is murder not only perfectly legal, but lauded? The more you kill, the more medals you can win. There was, and can be, no “good” war. The Civil War created a new nation, and it wasn’t the one the Founders established. It wasn’t “good.” Neither was WWII. How can millions of human beings dying ever be considered “good?” War is basically a plague. We are the virus.

If being for peace makes you weak, I’m as weak as it gets. Christ told us to turn the other cheek. Now, America has turned the other cheek a few times. Like when the Soviets shot down Korean Airlines Flight 007 (does that flight number sound just a bit suspicious?) With American congressman Larry McDonald on board. The only proud “conspiracy theorist” to ever serve in Congress. And Ronald Reagan, bold anti-communist that he was, did….absolutely nothing. He turned the other cheek. But while we never really are literally attacked, we always respond with might. Except for that Korean Airlines thing. And, of course, the nonstop four decades of assault on our southern border. We really, really turn the other cheek there.

Who will admire someone that speaks out against war? The hippie girls did back in the ‘60s, but I was too young then, so maybe that’s just a misconception. Will it score you points on your job? You’d be lucky if you don’t get fired. Especially now, with Israel in the middle. Everybody knows it’s career suicide to do that, although we are assured that this isn’t because there is some disproportionate power involved. As Ben Shapiro and others have declared, such thoughts are anti-Semitic in and of themselves. It’s Hamas, and Hezbolah, that we have to worry about. I apologize for overlooking all the powerful “terrorist” influencers in this country. It’s wrong to stop conservatives from speaking on college campuses. But not “anti-Semites.”

Even if we don’t literally commit troops to an official World War III, we are at war. With each other, in a hopelessly divided country. With our corrupt and tyrannical government. “COVID” was an act of war. Not by any virus, but by the leaders of the world. The entire world. Locked down and masked, under the most ridiculous “science” imaginable. We’ll never be at peace again. Not that we were ever at peace, really. But at least we weren’t locked down to protect us against an invisible enemy. And they know they can lock us down again, whenever they want. The majority will obey, just as they always do. Lemmings. Ours is not to question why.

Whether we remain in an undeclared and unrecognized World War III, against our own authoritarian government, or send hundreds of thousands of young men, women, and transgenders, to “stand” with Israel, the difference will be how and where the culling occurs. They want millions to die, and it probably matters little if that happens on a far-flung battlefield, or in weaponized hospitals, or through weaponized vaccines. They may lock all the Thought Criminals up. Maybe execute some of them. It would make a grand new reality television show- pulling the switch on a new “insurrectionist” each week. Maybe they could have a special guest transgender do the honors. Or an actual Deep State official whose crimes have gone unpunished. This country is full of them.

How many millions have died because their government ordered them off to battle? There is never a good rationale, and diplomacy is always better. War is kind of like The Purge movies. Legalized killing. And lots of rape, too. And looting. My books are full of examples of this behavior on the part of seemingly most soldiers. It’s enabled and ignored, if it has to be, by the authorities who pay them. War is organized murder, as Harry Patch said. Nothing glamorous about it. Nothing heroic. Brutal and mindless. Not a single death served any logical purpose. None of these poor young souls died for anything, other than profit margins and political expediency. Most Americans may be at the point where they believe, as Orwell’s Inner Party proclaimed, that War is Peace.

Another Independence Day is here. There will be fireworks, hamburgers, hot dogs, people getting drunk. I guess people still get drunk on holidays. Most Americans realize that July 4 has something to do with our history. But in their dumbed down, historically illiterate minds, the details aren’t exactly clear.

As usual, I scanned my cable guide, and found the same dearth of television programs about the founding of this country that I always do. On July 4th, you think they’d have some special programming, like they do for Juneteenth or Pride Month. But no, it’s just the 1776 musical, and that’s about it. If they were to air anything about Thomas Jefferson, or the other founders, it would be negative, portraying them as slave owners. Maybe there will be a special or two about Alexander Hamilton, the bankers’ favorite founder, father of national debt, who has transitioned himself from a dead White guy to hip Black Broadway star.

I’ve pointed out many times how Hollywood has studiously avoided the subject of the American Revolution since its birth over a hundred years ago. No biopic of George Washington, or Benjamin Franklin, or Jefferson, or Patrick Henry. It’s obvious that the entertainment world, like our government agencies and corporate America, want to avoid this topic. Revolting against tyranny, declaring that all people have a right to consent to those who govern them; it might give the sheeple ideas. You saw what happened to the last “insurrectionists.” And they were entirely unarmed. Just expressing their rights under the Constitution those dead White males invented.

That’s the most astounding thing about America 2.0. It’s not like our leaders really ever followed the Constitution they are sworn to uphold. They don’t believe in it, especially that pesky Bill of Rights. This ignoring of the framework of government that they are supposed be guided by, began in earnest under the despotism of our most tyrannical president, Abraham Lincoln. Or if you prefer to believe the corrupt establishment, a kind and benevolent guy who was our greatest statesman. Lincoln hated the Founders, especially Jefferson. They certainly would have hated him. Those southern states that no longer consented in 1860 were crushed, to the tune of nearly a million dead. No more consent of the governed. The reason for our founding.

I know a lot of my friends are skeptical of the Constitution. They think the Articles of Confederation was better. It probably was. But once they put a Bill of Rights in it, enunciating rights given to us by God, and not any government, it became in my view as good as any government framework can be. The checks and balances of the three branches was a nice safeguard against concentration of power. But it was twisted from the start, with corrupt men like Hamilton and John Marshall usurping authority to the Executive and Judicial branches, creating monstrosities like Judicial Review. Which everyone on the Left and Right supports. Takes for granted. Until I started talking about it, the last critic of Judicial Review was Thomas Jefferson.

Lincoln’s suspension of the writ of habeas corpus paved the way for the madness we see today, with American citizens held behind bars without due process for over two years. Adams and his Alien and Sedition Acts. Lincoln’s American Bastille. Wilson locked up the WWI protesters, and the Supreme Court upheld his right to do so, invoking the ridiculous “fire in a crowded theater” exception to free speech. So don’t protest a war, or you’re yelling fire in a crowded theater. Got it. FDR locked up Japanese-Americans, along with unpublicized German-Americans and Italian-Americans (whose descendants got no reparations), in concentration camps. The government stole their homes and businesses, and never returned them. Somehow, I don’t think the Founders would have approved of that.

So the January 6th protesters are not being subjected to anything new. I don’t think many people protested the political prisoners in the north during the War Between the States, or during WWI and WWII. Except for the Vietnam War, Americans really haven’t protested much of anything since the Boston Tea Party, or the Draft Riots in the 1860s. We are quite the unworthy heirs to the the Sons of Liberty, the Committees of Correspondence, and Thomas Paine’s Common Sense. It’s hard to imagine the Founders being proud of what we’ve done to their “experiment.” Except for Alexander Hamilton, who’d be a happy attendee at Bilderberg, as well as a Black Broadway star.

I wanted to include an excerpt here, from my book Crimes and Cover-Ups in American Politics: 1776-1963, which features a Foreword by the great Ron Paul:

“We’ve all read about how the Founding Fathers swore on their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor, when they signed the Declaration of Independence. These were many of the wealthiest men of their time, and it is impossible to imagine a gaggle of present-day billionaires risking a single stock option, let alone their very existence, for the cause of human liberty. Although the legend attributing his act to a desire for King George to be able to read it without his spectacles is probably apocryphal, John Hancock’s audacious boldness in signing his name in huge letters, exemplified the spirit of that generation. Fifty six men signed the Declaration of Independence in the summer of 1776. Few Americans realize the awful price that many of them wound up paying.

Seventeen of those who signed the Declaration lost everything they owned. Nine of these men lost their lives in the conflict. Rhode Island’s William Ellery’s estate was burned to the ground during the war. William Floyd of New York suffered the same fate. Fellow New Yorker Frances Lewis saw his estates destroyed by fire as well, and he was imprisoned and died during his incarceration. One of the richest of all those who signed, William Livingston died impoverished a few years after the war. John Hart of New Jersey risked not only his fortune, but his family ties. His wife was dying as he signed the Declaration, and he was forced to flee from the British when he headed home to say goodbye. He never saw his thirteen children again, and died in 1779. New Jersey Judge Richard Stockton was another British prisoner, and he too died a pauper. Wealthy banker Robert Morris gave away his fortune in an effort to finance the revolution. He also died penniless. Imagine any banker doing something remotely like that today. Virginia’s Thomas Nelson, in a perhaps implausible anecdote, allegedly turned a cannon on his own home, which had become General Cornwallis’s headquarters, and destroyed it. He, like so many of the others, died in poverty. South Carolina’s Thomas Lynch, along with his wife, simply disappeared at sea.” Lives. Fortunes. Sacred Honor. What leader today has any honor?

Can we picture the Elon Musks and Mark Zuckerbergs of the world engaging an enemy on the battlefield? And now they’re claiming these two pampered elitists are going to fight each other in a cage match? You could not possibly come up with more ridiculous satire than that. This not only exemplifies the Idiocracy, but the scripted nature of this reality. What next- Putin vs. Zelensky? Maybe the former actor and comedian will intimidate the Russian leader by playing some instrument with his penis. It’s one of his great talents. America 2.0- last in the world in class and dignity.

The Founders and their notions of independence are scoffed at by everyone with a position of power in America 2.0. Alex Jones used to show the FEMA video that portrayed the Founding Fathers as “terrorists.” Quoting again from my book, “The Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute training guide advised its recruits that, ‘In U.S. history, there are many examples of extremist ideologies and movements. The colonists who sought to free themselves from British rule and the Confederate states who sought to secede from the Northern states are just two examples.’ The guide also warned that participation in any ‘extremist’ organization is ‘incompatible with military service and is, therefore prohibited.’”

Independence Day used to evoke patriotism. Flags flying. Parades. Worship of military veterans. I guess the flags are still flying, but many are of the LBGTQ variety. I doubt they would grant a permit to a parade that featured floats celebrating the Boston Tea Party, Valley Forge, or the surrender at Yorktown, when they played “The World Turned Upside Down.” The slightest peep of outrage (and every one of their peeps is exceptionally loud) over it being “White Supremacist,” and that parade would be cancelled. Make way for something more suitable for America 2.0- a “Pride” parade or maybe just pussy hats shouting at a figure of Donald Trump in effigy.

If I were still invited to cookouts, I’d probably test the waters with a “I may not agree with what you say, but I’ll defend to my dying day your right to say it” kind of quaint quote. Sounds pretty subversive in today’s climate. What with all the hatred free speech gets now. That’s ironic, isn’t it? A visceral hatred for the concept of free speech, the right to freely express yourself, on the part of the same people who coined the Orwellian term “hate speech,” and are itching to prosecute Americans for engaging in it. Thought Crime. The Founders are all Thought Criminals at this point.

Enjoy the barbecue, with whatever family members you’re speaking with after The Greatest Psyop in the History of the World. Wave some sparklers. Light up some snakes- do they still have those? Probably not. Too dangerous for America 2.0. When I was a kid, most families lit off fireworks in their backyards. I’ll walk through the neighborhood tonight, but last year I only saw a few gatherings in the street. Perhaps I’ll engage a friendly neighbor in a discussion about the consent of the governed. Or taxation without representation. Hopefully they don’t call the police. You know what side they’re going to be on. So if you’re drinking some non-Bud Light beer today, say a toast to these dead White males, before they outlaw the very word liberty.

One can make a persuasive argument that this country was born illegitimately, being that the land was stolen. I don’t necessarily accept that it was; humans have been taking over land previously occupied by others since the dawn of time. In more recent times, see Israel, for instance. But I don’t blame Native Americans for feeling robbed.

While America 2.0 is a shell of its former self, a Banana Republic of a bad joke, it is still number one in something. That would be bragging. About how we’re “the best” country. About the joys of diversity, and how that is our indispensable “strength.” There’s still the old Manifest Destiny mindset there, only now we call it American Exceptionalism. And it’s evident even in those “Woke” leaders who badmouth the country for being “racist,” “transphobic,” and threaten to leave for parts unknown whenever Donald Trump runs for public office. If the past is any indication, our new deranged group of villainous Social Justice Warriors will soon be boasting of how we lead the world in transgender success stories.

For a land that was founded by Puritans, and experienced the strict moral rigidity of Calvinism, America has quite the tradition of immorality, including lots of officially sanctioned, outright theft. In my book Crimes and Cover-Ups in American Politics: 1776-1963, I detailed how the Union Army, under the demonic psychopath William T. Sherman, ran a huge grifting operation, as they swept through the south. Plenty of rape, and burning of crops, and destruction of homes, but also outright stealing of the personal property of the women in their wake. Not sure which came first, the raping or the plunder. At any rate, we are told by the stalwart, well educated court historians that these were the good guys in the conflict.

When Robert E. Lee surrendered at Appomattox Court House, the owner of the place, Wilmer McLean, would accuse the victorious Union troops of stealing much of his personal property. Like a bunch of Snidley Whiplashes, they even harassed a little girl living there, by tossing her beloved doll around. Union troops were documented as having shot family dogs in front of terrified children, and even to have destroyed or stolen their toys. These are the brave souls who were fighting to save the Union. And free the slaves. After raping many of them. Or, they were pathetic suckers who were as racist as the Johnny Rebs, and had no choice but to fight because they couldn’t afford the “rich man’s exemption.”

In my upcoming book, The American Memory Hole: How the Court Historians Promote Disinformation, I’ll document similar robberies done under the auspices of the flag. The “greatest generation”- the goodest of all good guys, we’re assured- stole a bunch of valuable loot from the Japanese during the WWII era. Now, the dirty sneaky rotten Japs had engaged in thievery themselves- the booty was an accumulation of stolen property over the centuries- but that didn’t exactly make it right. Kind of like how Steve Jobs stole from IBM to create Apple, and then Bill Gates stole from him to create Microsoft. Wartime thieving began in the unconstitutional Mexican War in 1846. The same behavior was apparent in Haiti, the Philippines, and wherever else our glorious troops could be found. War is profitable, from the soldiers to the bankers.

I’ll also talk about some truly horrendous, seldom mentioned atrocities by our troops against the American Indians. Lots of rape, and a curious practice of shooting at little children, getting as close as possible without hitting them. Just terrifying them. The theft of whatever property the Indians had. In one case, they slaughtered some Christian Indians, whose begging did them no good. They probably weren’t real Christians, anyhow. Not our kind of Christianity. And, in the ultimate irony, they proceeded to scalp some of the victims. They would do the same thing again in other under reported atrocities. At least we changed the name of the Washington Redskins.

Senator Joseph McCarthy, one of the most unfairly maligned political figures in American history, was investigating many interesting things during his brief reign in the spotlight. One of these was the possible theft of some $100 billion worth of gold from China, resulting from a typically unsavory deal made with the corrupt administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1934. We’ve all heard how the Nazis looted works of art, but it is acknowledged that we- the ultimate collection of Captain Americas- openly plundered a significant amount of German art. But this theft was “legal.” The 1945 Potsdam Agreement decreed that “all art collections, both public and private that dealt with themes of National Socialistic aggrandizement be confiscated in toto.” American leaders have a natural ability to justify anything.

We all know that FDR rounded up Japanese-Americans and put them in internment camps. But German-Americans and Italian-Americans were also sent to camps. And all of them had billions of dollars worth of property- homes and businesses- confiscated by the U.S. government. Which never paid them back. So they were such a “threat” that we had to steal their homes and businesses? We did that, not Hitler. Maybe they could make a movie about it. You’d just have to change a few things. Make the victims Black. And convert the villains into evil America First Nazi sympathizers. At least the Japanese were belatedly compensated. The Germans and Italians weren’t.

In Korea alone, from the time U.S. troops were first stationed there in 1945, through 1998, there were at least 100,000 crimes estimated to have been committed by those fighting for our freedom. Included were a significant number of rapes and robberies. These seem to be the two crimes of choice during times of war. Which is pretty much all the time for America. It’s an Uncle Sam thing, you wouldn’t understand. In Vietnam, the familiar pattern emerged. There was a veritable crime spree engaged in for much of 1967 by an elite “Tiger Force” U.S. Army division alone. In another case, future senator, presidential candidate, and romantic partner of actress Debra Winger Bob Kerry participated in a criminal raid on a hamlet. Sgt. Roy “the Bummer” Bumgarner was reputed to have killed some 1,500 in Vietnam. Sgt. Serial Killer.

In Iraq, we all saw the photos of the pretty, smiling American soldier girl posing next to dead Iraqis, and other pictures of naked male Iraqis with things like fluorescent bulbs and electric prods inserted in their rectums. Freedom isn’t free. Our troops plundered health care centers after bombing them. Then Bradley Manning blew the whistle on the multitude of war crimes, and the material was released through Julian Assange’s Wikileaks. Manning was prosecuted (eventually becoming Chelsea- a rare case of an unpopular transgender), and originally given a sentence fit for a serial killer (unlike the actual serial killer mentioned above, who served 97 months of probation and then reenlisted), until Barack Obama pardoned him. We all know what happened to Assange, whom Trump didn’t pardon.

During the first Gulf “War,” it is admitted that U.S. troops buried surrendering Iraqi troops alive with bulldozers. It’s hard to imagine a worse war crime than that, although our boys in Korea, Vietnam, Iraqi and Afghanistan did rape and murder a lot of thirteen year old girls. All’s fair in love and war. In Afghanistan, American troops were accused of running heroin labs. That seems like an odd thing for a freedom loving force to do. But so does raping 13 year old girls. And stealing anything that isn’t nailed down. Exactly how does rape advance the cause of freedom? Even if it’s not the rape of a child? According to Seymour Hersh, our troops raped Iraqi boys in front of their screaming mothers. It’s all on tape somewhere, never to be released.

We could ask the same question about theft. How does stealing the property of civilians advance the cause of freedom? How does it fit in to the concept of heroism? You’d think at least a few of those Union boys would have felt some sympathy for the women and children, and not stolen their jewelry, raped them, salted their land and burned their crops. As their diabolical leader William T. Sherman said, “War is hell.” I guess stealing what was left of valuable German art, after we bombed the beautiful city of Dresden, which held zero military value, was no worse than sending home Japanese skulls to family members as cherished souvenirs. Technically, they didn’t steal them. Just killed them. And what good is war, without murder?

All the theft doesn’t happen on the battlefield. How many politicians have been convicted of graft? How many were never caught? Is there an easier group to blackmail? From Abscam to the Keating Five, these well-paid “representatives” have shown repeatedly that they can resist everything except temptation, to quote Oscar Wilde. Outed by even our state controlled press, Bill and Hillary Clinton returned some $50,000 worth of items from the White House. Which they of course denied stealing, but somehow wound up with in their personal possession. That happens when you’re not poor or working class. Imagine that; being such thieves that you have to steal from the White House. No “mandatory minimum sentences” for them.

In the business world, thieves rule. While corporations will often monitor how many pens the common riff raff are walking off the job with, they don’t notice the far more expensive items like laptops, which wind up in the hands of the executive set. Holy reverends have been caught with their hands literally in the collection plate. When you look at the most successful “prosperity gospel” ministers, it’s obvious that they used all those donations from naive worshipers for irreligious purposes. With the outrageous fees doctors, hospitals, and lawyers charge, aren’t they engaged in theft? We feel ripped off by car dealers and repair shops, retail chains, plumbers, electricians, and nearly everyone else we contract with. Isn’t ripping off stealing?

Law enforcement across this country engages in widespread theft every day. Under asset forfeiture laws, the police have a right to confiscate your personal property, even when you haven’t been charged with a crime. Some parents have lost their homes, because their teenager sold pot under their roof. Vehicles are routinely stolen, not just by carjackers of color, but by police officers doing their “duty.” We found traces of marijuana in the back seat, so now we own the car. You were carrying too much cash, so we suspect you’re involved in drug trafficking. And so we have to confiscate your automobile. Do you want the terrorists to win? Come on down to the next police auction. You might get yourself a great deal.

Our fractional reserve banking system is built on theft. It is legalized counterfeiting. They don’t actually need reserves on hand- in other words, they aren’t required to have the actual funds they’re lending you. If you and I played under the rules of the Federal Reserve, we could lend out money to anyone, by simply creating it with the stroke of a pen. In other words, counterfeiting. Every loan is a theft, because they will collect on something they never gave you. And if you miss that fake mortgage or car payment, they’ll foreclose on you. Or send out a repo man. Put less politely, they’ll steal your property. As history has shown, they’re really good at that.

So on top of the massive corruption, the monumental dishonesty and hypocrisy, this land has a foundation of fraud- a history of official thievery. So it’s probably fitting that shoplifting has essentially been legalized in America 2.0. Why not? If the soldiers, and the politicians, and the executives, and the bankers, and the cops, can all steal with impunity, why not those who might have an understandable financial motive? Thou Shalt Not Steal kind of loses its meaning, when even pious clergy members are caught taking what isn’t theirs. I’m not saying we ought to cut off the hands of convicted thieves, as they still probably do in some “backward” countries. But we at least ought not to ignore, excuse, or sanctify certain kinds of stealing.

If those misrunning this crumbling land had the slightest moral compass, the least bit of morality, then they’d feel tremendous guilt about all the criminal activity they’d participated in. But I’ve yet to hear of a single deathbed confession. No Sauls turning into Pauls in this country. There used to be a moral foundation- albeit hypocritical- among the unwashed masses, if not the rich. At least they recognized that the Ten Commandments were something to strive to follow. They even quoted the Golden Rule, even if very few could hope to live up to it. Now the people, like their leaders, scoff at the Ten Commandments. Golden Rule? You mean he who has the gold rules?

Maybe we stole the country from the Indians. Maybe we stole parts of Mexico. I don’t think we stole Puerto Rico, but we sure didn’t rush to get their power back on a few years back. Somebody stole a lot to get the kind of unprecedented disparity of wealth we now have in this country. We all have a trace of larceny in us. We all love to get freebies. But those without any power in this society know the limits. And if they don’t, they are prosecuted. Unless they’re present day shoplifters in California. If our government was Catholic, it would require a long and intense confession of sins. I’m not sure what an adequate penance would be for such a lengthy legacy of lies, conspiracies, crimes and coverups. There’s a never ending supply of hidden history.

A discussion of involuntary incarceration seems appropriate at this point, as Israel continues to bombard the Palestinians who are in effect their prisoners. In 2006, Israeli senior official Giaora Eiland described Gaza as a “huge concentration camp.” That’s not a “conspiracy theorist” saying it- it’s one of our beloved allies.

That same year, 2006, a much ballyhooed election was held on the West Bank in Gaza. The Americans, under the great Dubya Bush, pushed for such an election, and called it “democracy promotion.” However, as often happens, “democracy” didn’t go the way they wanted, as the dreaded bogeyman Hamas won the election. Even Jimmy Carter gave his imprimatur, declaring that it was “honest and fair.” Except that the “wrong” people won. Can’t have that in a “democracy.” So the forces of freedom, meaning America and Israel, instituted one of their notorious blockades on Gaza in retaliation. Israel has the right to defend itself against a vote! But as with the murderous embargo of Iraq, it was “worth it.” It’s a “democracy” thing, you wouldn’t understand.

Something similar happened in the 1980s, when demonized Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos won an election, overseen by international observers. Including the vaunted Jimmy Carter, who is something of an election specialist it seems. Despite no credible evidence of fraud, the U.S. simply captured Marcos and whisked him away, then installed puppet Cory Aquino in power. Imelda Marcos barely had time to collect her thousands of shoes. Elections aren’t sacrosanct if those running them don’t like the results. Even the “most safe and secure” election in history, in 2020, was questioned by many. Well, probably 100 million or so. Those “threats” to democracy were imprisoned. Some are still being prosecuted.

We hear a lot about the Nazi death camps. That’s what they call them. Or maybe the extermination camps. I won’t delve into that here, other than to say that we ought to be able to question everything. But for a much longer period of time, the Soviets and the communist Chinese had their gulags. Mainstream estimates state that Mao’s Red China incarcerated some fifty million over a period of eighty years, with twenty million dying. But for some reason, there has never been a single Hollywood film chronicling that particular holocaust. Again, according to official sources, twenty million or more Russians perished during the reign of Joe Stalin alone. You know, our loyal ally from the “Good War.” Uncle Joe. And no movies about that, either.

And, at the same time as Auschwitz and Dachau, we set up internment camps here in the good old U.S.A. Most people think that only Japanese-Americans were forcibly sent to these camps, which unlike all others around the world were for their own good. Totally ignored were, and continue to be, the German-Americans and Italian-Americans who also lost their freedom in a country that was bragging about fighting for it. And no reparations were ever paid to their families. As I will chronicle in my upcoming book The American Memory Hole, at least a billion dollars worth of German and Japanese businesses was confiscated by the U.S. government. So was all their personal property, including their homes. And they were never compensated.

The Japanese themselves ran concentration camps in several countries, including China, Formosa, and the Philippines. Supposedly brutal medical experiments were conducted within them, but unlike the supposedly brutal medical experiments of the Nazis, Hollywood (and the court historians) have shown a decided lack of curiosity about the subject. The lordly judges at Nuremberg, where the vanquished was tried in court by the victors for the first time in world history, showed little interest at all in the Japanese and any perceived war crimes. It was all Nazi, all the time, as it still is. And yet they were so sneaky, what with the Pearl Harbor psyop and all.

America has a long history with concentration camps. After Andrew Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act in 1830, tens of thousands of various native tribes were forced from their homes into prison camps in Alabama and Tennessee. Thousands died there, and also on the infamous “Trail of Tears,” a march of some thousand miles. Jackson, a genuine hero in fighting the bankers, nevertheless called this brutality “benevolent.” U.S. leaders love to do this kind of thing. Witness their continued affinity for “democracy,” as they punish dissenters for “threatening” it. In 1862, Governor Alexander Ramsey declared, “The Sioux Indians of Minnesota must be exterminated or driven forever beyond the borders of the state.”

I wrote extensively about the incarceration of northern dissenters during the Civil War, by Abraham Lincoln, the secular saint of our “democracy,” in Crimes and Cover-Ups in American Politics: 1776-1963. Untold thousands of citizens were arrested by soldiers, some in the middle of the night, some at church, without charges. Honest Abe had suspended the Writ of Habeas Corpus, after all. When the Supreme Court ruled this unconstitutional, he threatened to arrest the Chief Justice. He had to. What else was he to do, when the “union” was threatened by “free” citizens who no longer wanted to be a part of it? Sure, there was that whole “consent of the governed” thing, but there was an insurrection going on. Just like in 2020. Ask Joe Biden about it.

One could argue that the Reservations the surviving American Indians were herded onto are in effect open air concentration camps. Very similar to what we see today on the West Bank, minus the relentless bombing of civilians and bulldozing of homes. It never ceases to amaze me how Native Americans are so ignored within our midst. It sure seems like Apartheid to me, but what do I know? I can’t stress enough that I’m a mere community college dropout. Why is assimilation with the population not encouraged for this particular group? Where are all the interracial Native American-glistening White couples on television commercials? The local Native American news anchors? No more great Indian athletes after Jim Thorpe, perhaps the greatest of all?

The concentration camps for German-Americans during World War I have been totally forgotten, by the court historians, and the historically illiterate American public. Seems like great fodder for drama; a play or movie with sympathetic, loyal American citizens, spat on and called racial epithets like “kraut” by drooling fellow Whites. But alas, Hollywood has bigger fish to fry. Nonwhite Snow White, Black Little Mermaids, and the like. We know what happened during World War II, but in 1950, the Subversive Activities Control Act created six concentration camps, meant for communists, peace activists, civil rights leaders, etc. However, they were closed without ever being used. Kind of like those makeshift hospitals for COVID.

The U.S. set up concentration camp for peasants in Vietnam. And the “War on Terror,” declared by the U.S. after the obvious “inside job” of 9/11, resulted in atrocities at military prisons in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere. Most of the men and boys incarcerated at Guantanamo Bay were admittedly innocent. They were simply held as political prisoners and often tortured for information. Some were held without charges for as long as seventeen years. We all saw the photos of the naked males piled on top of each other, some with that pretty female U.S. soldier smiling and pointing at their genitals. War is Hell, as war criminal William Sherman said. And never let us forget that they hate us for our freedom that isn’t free.

They set up those FEMA camps for some reason, under “REX 84.” All of us have speculated on how they’ll perhaps be utilized when the corrupt elite finally drop all pretenses and openly demonstrate their satanic savagery. I’ve joked that I would love to meet all of those who have contacted me, especially the ones who’ve become friends, but live far away. But I don’t want it to be in the FEMA camps. Which is all too frighteningly possible. I am under no illusions that my extended family or real life friends would hesitate to turn me into the authorities as a hopeless Thought Criminal. They wouldn’t have to offer them much incentive. A free Starbucks coupon would probably work. Everyone has their price.

Presently, America has more people behind prison bars than any country has ever had. This includes truly odious private prisons, where by contract the state has to maintain a full “occupancy” rate, or the taxpayers are forced to make up the difference. So if the crime rate somehow drops precipitously in that area, your taxes would increase. Kind of destroys the natural incentive, doesn’t it? And an unknown but surely large number of those incarcerated by our injustice system are innocent of the crimes they were convicted of. By corrupt police, prosecutors, and judges, and idiotic juries. And how can we feel safe, anyhow, with all those “White Supremacists” roaming free?

Both the Left and Right push new laws. Which create new criminals. We have far too many laws already. Sure, Americans have become mind-numbingly stupid, and are hardly sympathetic figures with tattoos covering every inch of their obese bodies, but I don’t think that many of them are natural born criminals. I’ve known a lot of unsavory and unlikeable characters in my life, but can’t think of any that made me believe they should be locked away for the sake of society. Do we feel safer with all those people behind bars? All the poor souls entrapped by drug stings or child pornography stings? It takes a real cretin to be a narc. To pretend to be someone’s friend so he can be arrested. I don’t know what kind of cop volunteers to pretend to be an underage girl in order to trap someone, but that feels dirty, too. And in all those online setups, there were no real children involved. That just doesn’t taste right.

Today’s Palestinians are effectively Israel’s political prisoners. No real rights, and if they attempt to fight back at all, they are labeled “terrorists.” Where were all the “terrorists” in the world before the creation of modern Israel, I wonder? Because of the Zionist stranglehold over the mainstream media in this country, the obvious underdogs in this struggle have been demonized into villains, while the aggressors backed by the world’s mightiest powers are lauded as heroic. We stand with them. If a hungry, barefoot orphan (whose parents were killed by the IDF) throws a rock at a military tank, he is in the wrong. Not the soldiers that might have destroyed his home. And Israel has the “right” to retaliate by killing everyone he knows.

Here in the homeland, an untold number of political prisoners remain behind bars, denied all due process for nearly three years. The January 6 defendants who have been tried have been given draconian sentences that are harsher than what many murderers receive. The J6 “insurrectionists” are in essence being interned in concentration camps. And it’s standard operating procedure in America. Locking up the dissidents- the purported enemies of the state. It’s what we do. In the 1860s, we threw them in makeshift prisons and called them “disloyal.” By World War II, FDR would feel comfortable in stealing their homes and businesses. And then putting them in camps. Recently, the lovely Lindsey Graham mentioned the magical “appeasement” word. That’s been used against those advocating peace since the days of Lincoln.

I wouldn’t support it, but you could probably make a decent argument for putting, let’s say, the most violent gang members from the inner cities into concentration camps. You wouldn’t even have to steal any of their property, as the U.S. government traditionally does. Well, they probably have some nice gold chains. When the Mafia was in its heyday, it would have made a bit more sense to lock up all the leaders of the Mob into concentration camps, than continue to watch them be found not guilty by frightened juries, on the rare occasions they faced prosecution. Juries got it wrong consistently back then, too. And their vote counts as much as yours, if any count.

As a civil libertarian, I would never advocate such a thing, but if you have to have concentration camps, and there has to be people to put in them, then it stands to reason that you should probably choose the ones who are most dangerous to society. This would be not only be violent criminals, but warmongers like Graham, or the late John McCainiac, who wanted to suppress the rights of others. Or demented eugenicists like Bill Gates, who openly fantasize about millions dying, and indicate that they approve of, and desire, such a thing. Again, I wouldn’t do it, but the world would certainly be safer with them incarcerated somewhere.

The world is no safer with our record number of prisoners, most of whom are there in some way because of drugs that should be legal or at least decriminalized. It certainly isn’t safer because of those who were railroaded by a system for their political beliefs. If you have any political prisoners, then you aren’t a free country. Maybe they’ll use the FEMA camps to house “sleeper cells.” Combined perhaps with very, very White “insurrectionists.” When you’ve declared so many things illegal, there’s always someone to lock up. They may not seem dangerous, but our illustrious leaders have told us that they are “threats” to our democracy. And nothing threatens our “democracy.” If you question that, we’ll find a cell for you somewhere.

Alex Jones came up with an apt description for our maddening world- Prison Planet. It’s a sad situation when those most prone to arrest are Thought Criminals like us. Who write, or say, the “wrong” thing. Who “offend” those who are professional “victims.” And yet don’t think the Palestinians are victims. Can somebody find a few transgender Palestinians, so we can get the “Woke” crowd on board? It’s easier to arrest and convict a political dissident, than a common shoplifter. They’ve legalized shoplifting in some states. Could we legalize unpopular and offensive thoughts? There are millions of us out here. They’re going to need more camps, and prisons. But as history shows, this country is really, really good at corralling and locking up people.

One of the many reasons I will never, and could never be a conservative is my empathy for the underclass. The unwashed masses. The common riff-raff. The ones looked down upon by the upper middle class, and despised by the eugenicist elite. The ones who’ll never own a stock option or achieve membership at the local country club.

It’s natural for me to feel this way. To quote the great Ambrose Bierce, I came from poor because of honest stock. My mother’s family was so poor they used to send the kids to the garden parties in the better part of town, where they’d sneak in after the event and forage for loose change that had been dropped on the lawn. My father’s family was even more poverty stricken. No heat in their rotating apartments. Ice on the walls in winter. They were evicted so often that my father would come home from school to find a note with his new address posted on the door. Six boys slept in one bed. My grandmother still managed to be a fantastic cook. If the rumors about her having boyfriends is true, I can’t really blame her. They say she wore no underwear. Maybe she couldn’t afford it. My next book- “My Grandmother was a Floozy.”

When I was growing up, everyone we knew in our family was similar to us financially. Lower middle class. Most of them had bigger houses, but they were stuck in the same status- victims of a casino economy where 80 percent must lose so 20 percent can keep winning. My father had a cousin whose daughter somehow married Rutherford B. Hayes III. Years later, I found a photo of her and the reason for her crossing some very formidable tracks to enter the One Percent world became obvious; she was beautiful. Rich guy falling for the lovely matchgirl in rags; it’s a story as old as time itself. Anyhow, we never met any of that part of the family, other than to see them on the “society page” of the newspaper. My mother’s aunt married a guy who was the official photographer of Congress. She rose above the eccentricity of her financially struggling relatives. I never met her, either.

It’s no wonder that Huey Long’s mesmerizing speeches attracted me at such an early age. I wanted a horse so badly during my childhood. And a Ludwig drum set. Both of them were far beyond my family’s financial reach. Huey Long helped me to start understanding that. I had one vacation during my entire childhood- a week at Virginia Beach when I was eight. Maybe that’s why I never liked to travel. But I don’t think either my mother’s or father’s families ever had a family vacation. Vacations weren’t possible for the poor and working class in those days. My mother’s father worked twelve hours a day, 365 days a year. They let him come home for lunch on Christmas Day. Even with terminal cancer, he kept working as a security guard.

Very few Americans have heard of, let alone have an appreciation for, the 1938 Fair Labor Standards Act. One of the few good things to come out of FDR’s unconstitutional New Deal monstrosity, it created the forty hour work week, and overtime pay, and through sick and vacation leave, finally made possible a short summer trip to the beach or the mountains for families that never had the opportunity before. Pressure from Huey Long- who wanted a thirty or even twenty hour work week and a guaranteed month vacation time for all workers- triggered this watered- down but still immensely beneficial piece of legislation. In terms of what it did for average Americans, it was the greatest law in the history of this country.

Growing up at a time when America had its strongest economy, it took me a long time to realize how fortunate I’d been. The Baby Boomers enjoyed a marketplace that hadn’t existed before, and unfortunately is unlikely to exist again. The postwar boom, which created the Military Industrial Complex and a slew of other bad things, also brought us this powerful economy, where every job truly paid a living wage. Where men pumping gas and selling hardware supplies could buy houses and raise large families. And their wives could stay at home, cooking, cleaning house, and caring for the children. I can sense the feminists who may be reading this foaming at the mouth at this point. That was a historical reality, and I remember it fondly. Sue me.

But even during that golden era, there were the suffering “losers” of even that robust economy. Bums or tramps, as they were indelicately referred to. There just were a lot fewer of them. Really, for that small window of American history- from the late 1940s to maybe the early 1970s- there was a better chance at upward mobility for almost everyone, than there had ever been. If you’ve read my book Survival of the Richest: How the Corruption of the Marketplace and the Disparity of Wealth Created the Greatest Conspiracy of All, you know how I feel about our present rigged economy. And that book was written prior to the COVID psyop, which featured an unprecedented, unconstitutional lockdown, destroying what was left of small business.

In today’s world, all of the perks from the Baby Boomer era are long gone. Most companies used to provide a nice pension for their employees, which coupled with Social Security, enabled them to cope with retirement much more easily than the elderly today can. Private pensions have largely vanished. Some companies replaced them with 401Ks, which are nice, but at best the company only contributes a small matching amount. It’s far different from traditional pensions, which the company paid for entirely. Yearly raises? I used to get two raises a year as a blue-collar rabble rouser in the late 1970s-early 1980s. One for cost of living, and another merit increase based on your performance evaluation. By the late 1990s, we were seldom given even a token annual increase. Just part of the odious “new normal.”

When I worked for Inova Health, I think they had about 15,000 employees. At Christmas time, probably no more than 50-100 top executives received six and seven figure bonuses. For all the rest of the workers- nothing. This mirrors the way America 2.0 works; crumbs for the masses, while the overlords are constantly being gifted additional riches. In the 1990s, our “representatives” gave tax-exempt status to wildly misnamed “performance bonuses.” It’s a One Percent thing, you wouldn’t understand. It just seems about as unfair as possible that those already making 100s of times what their lowest paid workers make, are given huge bonuses, which they don’t even pay taxes on. But they can’t afford modest yearly raises for the hoi polloi.

The too often forgotten Henry David Thoreau said that “the mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation.” Women, too. And now transgenders. The statistics vary from source to source, but more than 70 percent of American workers are living paycheck to paycheck. About the same percentage have less than $1000 in total savings. Flying by the seat of your pants doesn’t quite do justice in describing the financial situation the vast majority of Americans are in. Forced to work pointless jobs they hate. Their lives made even more miserable by unreasonably demanding bosses. Biting their tongue as they obey one senseless and inconsistently applied rule after another. Watching their backs, so some other sap can’t score brownie points at their expense.

As the devotees of Ayn Rand used to say, “Shit happens, and then you die.” Almost all of us are forgotten far too quickly by even our closest loved ones. Is there any other human who lived 400 years ago that is still remembered at all, other than Shakespeare? The name has recently made something of a comeback, what with the first alleged case of COVID in Great Britain striking another less accomplished William Shakespeare. You can’t make stuff like that up. Most of the Golden Age of Hollywood stars have been forgotten, except to people like me, who doggedly enjoy those relics from America 1.0 every night. The old athletes are forgotten, too, all now relegated to being what author Lawrence Ritter called “The Glory of their Times.”

But those are people that achieved fame or notoriety, whether on the stage of the Globe Theatre in 1600s England, or the green pastures of America’s old ballparks. Very, very few people become famous. To any degree. So they are much easier to forget. Most don’t even get the gold watch and farewell luncheon that many did back in a more prosperous United States. I was unceremoniously whisked off Inova’s property after being fired for helping out a handicapped co-worker in 2018. Worked for them for forty four years, my entire adult life. I was forgotten before the door slammed shut behind me. I found out my co-workers were not actually my friends. Just co-workers. Like the kids you graduated from high school with. Utterly forgotten.

But even the working class has it good compared to the most forgotten of all; the truly impoverished. Their presence is more overtly felt these days, with the tents and human excrement on the streets of major American cities. Many of these would have been forgotten in another way in earlier times. Institutionalized in mental health facilities. Visited very infrequently by close relatives, who resented their “craziness” and were embarrassed of their connection to them. Kind of like the elderly now, with or without dementia. Even before COVID, there were a stunning number of old folks who wasted away in loneliness, “cared” for by insensitive workers at a typically horrid nursing home. Waiting in vain for a visit from a child or grandchild.

Some become so forgotten that they are buried in “pauper graves.” Unknown soldiers who weren’t soldiers. Some once renowned entertainers died without having a single person claim their ashes. I recounted these sad tales in my book On Borrowed Fame: Money, Mysteries, and Corruption in the Entertainment World. It’s hard to imagine a famous actor becoming forgotten, even when they have children, but it happens all too frequently. Being forgotten so quickly is like a cosmic slap in the face, an indignity that essentially invalidates a life. Perhaps the humanist lesson has become too well absorbed. We are treated like random specks of dust in an endless universe.

The great socialist Eugene Debs was tried for sedition in 1918. His “crime” was protesting World War I. He told the court: “I am opposing a social order in which it is possible for one man who does absolutely nothing that is useful to amass a fortune of hundreds of millions of dollars, while millions of men and women who work all the days of their lives secure barely enough for a wretched existence.” It’s been over a century, and nothing has changed in this regard. The average NBA salary is just under $10 million a year. The average American worker earns just under $60,000. So it would take the average worker sixty years to make one/third of that- $3 million.

Something is beyond wrong- sinful is the appropriate word that comes to mind- with a system that permits a CEO to make more from one tax-free Christmas “performance” bonus than the average full-time worker would earn in three centuries of work. You don’t have to be a communist, or a socialist, to understand just how unfair and illogical such a system is. When America was at its peak, the president of a company (before they invented the term CEO) might earn twenty times what the janitors were paid. Not thousands, or even millions of times more. No one’s life is worth that much more than anyone else’s. In the eyes of God, we are all equal.

Even if one of my books really took off, or I started getting the number of paid subscribers here that the big names on Substack do, my heart would always remain with that bottom half of America. The ones that collectively have less than one percent of the total wealth. I’ll always stand with the hapless, underpaid worker getting yelled at by a bully supervisor. I’ll always stand with the homeowner being foreclosed on by a bank that lent money they didn’t actually have under our fractional reserve system. I’ll never support the repo guy who steals the automobile that some bank, again, financed through a counterfeit process. I always hated the Yankees. I’m the opposite of a bandwagon fan. I won’t defend a system that is rigged.

An unknown number of people are behind bars, convicted for things they didn’t do, by a corrupt system of unscrupulous cops, blindly ambitious prosecutors, biased judges, and stupid juries. Very few seem to care. There but for the grace of God, we used to say. We don’t say that any more. Talk about forgotten. How many of their families believe in their innocence? How many come to visit them? The system that provides just enough for worker bees to keep making their rotating credit card payments, took even that away from the unjustly imprisoned. They are criminals, whether they did anything wrong or not. “In the eyes of the law,” as they say.

We tolerate the plight of the Forgotten because we don’t have to interact with them very often. We scurry past the homeless beggars on the street. Nervously look away from the person seeking money at stop lights. If a family member falls on hard times, we tend to give them “tough love.” In other words, we don’t give them money, food, or shelter. That would only “enable” their behavior. Devout Christians are most renowned for this philosophy. Since Reagan shut down most of the mental institutions, there really isn’t anywhere else for them to go. I cherish private property, but carried to its logical extreme, this means effectively that someone without a home might literally have no “legal” space in which to exist.

Reading Jack London’s The People of the Abyss had a great impact on me. It was written over a century ago, but the familiar problems remain. In the glamourized ghettos, and non-glamourized trailer parks and Appalachia. We all need money to survive. For food. And clothing. And shelter. The cost of everything has risen sharply in the past few years. The salaries of those making the lowest wages would have to rise commensurately, just in order for them to tread water. With every new wave of undocumented, extremely impoverished immigrants, that bottom fifty percent is growing. At some point, it’s going to occur to them to storm the mansions that exist only short distances from their shamefully squalid neighborhoods.

The poet Thomas Gray wrote about “the short and simple annals of the poor.” A more sadly accurate assessment has never been written. If we can’t get our “representatives” to force a fairer distribution of the wealth, we can at least treat the Forgotten decently ourselves. Give those poor souls a few bucks at the stop lights. Pay it forward to someone who needs it. And especially try to have some compassion for your own family members who fell on hard times. Whether it was due to drugs or alcohol, or just bad luck, your flesh and blood will be just as cold and hungry, and in need of help. Be as understanding of them as you would be of a rescue dog. In this culture of victimhood, there aren’t any more legitimate victims than these forgotten souls.

When Donald Trump burst upon the political scene, descending the golden escalator at Trump Tower on June 16, 2015, just as The Simpsons had predicted he would, I didn’t pay much attention. I found Trump to be an obnoxious blowhard, and shook my head at how his ridiculous reality show had become so popular.

I knew a bit of his history. When another, less divisive loose cannon billionaire, Ross Perot, created the Reform Party after two exciting but predictably unsuccessful presidential campaigns, Trump entered the fray. Apparently, he despised former Nixon aide and commentator Pat Buchanan enough to threaten to run against him for the Reform Party’s 2000 nomination. Considering how much Trump cared about our open borders in 2016, this was a curious thing to do, since Buchanan was the first national candidate to make our criminal immigration policy a major issue.

Trump would also come out on occasion and comment on political topics. I recall one instance where, in one of those laughable televised “discussions” on race, he was scolded by tiny Black racist Spike Lee. Trump didn’t fight back any more effectively than any other cucked White prominent figure. You might say, ironically enough, that they’ve “learned their place.” I also recall Trump declaring, during an appearance on Howard Stern’s radio show, that he would have been able to attract much younger beauties like Marla Maples, even if he had no money. His ego was gargantuan enough that he actually thought that his wealth was irrelevant to these women.

So it was with astonishment that I heard him become more revolutionary every day during that 2016 presidential campaign. Eviscerating Jeb Bush and the Bush crime family. Coming up with childish but effective nicknames like “Crooked Hillary,” “Little Marco,” and “Lyin’ Ted Cruz.” And, of course, the fact that the entire establishment, including the Republican Party hierarchy, seemed unilaterally opposed to him was a great point in his favor. Indeed, as time wore on, I began saying that Trump’s enemies were the best thing about him.

Trump attacked our inexcusably horrendous immigration policy with a fervor that no previous politician ever had. He was certainly more outspoken on it than Pat Buchanan, whose own presidential bid he had tried to wreck in 2000. Oddly, Trump’s second big issue was NAFTA and our other disastrous trade deals, which had also been a huge part of Buchanan’s platform. Maybe Trump loved immigration and NAFTA in 2000. It’s a presidential thing, I wouldn’t understand.

Trump was first universally condemned as a “racist,” after he called out the fact an illegal immigrant who’d already been deported multiple times and committed multiple other crimes, was wandering free to murder thirty two year old Californian Kate Steinle on July 1, 2015. In a portent of things to come, a jury would accept Jose Zarate’s defense that he’d found the gun under the bench where he’d been sitting, and it had accidentally gone off. While juries routinely send defendants to prison for life on the most flimsy “evidence” imaginable, in this case, they acquitted him of all charges except one, and an appeals court overturned that.

So, for protesting this egregious miscarriage of justice, as well as the insane immigration policy that permitted such tragedies to happen, Trump was lambasted by politicians of both parties, every mainstream media outlet, and all the clueless celebrities. Trump was further criticized for meeting with the “Angel Moms,” representing families who had lost a loved one at the hands of an illegal immigrant. This hardly seemed “racist” to me, and Trump began to really catch my eye. His rhetoric grew increasingly more anti-establishment than any I’d ever heard before, from a political candidate in either of our “opposing” major parties.

Around this time, Roger Stone contacted me. He’d read and loved my book Hidden History. During a phone conversation, he told me that I was going to absolutely love Donald Trump, his close friend of thirty years. He said, “he knows about all the conspiracies.” He made it sound like Trump would love my book, too. Trump was calling out NATO, and our “senseless wars.” And then his campaign slogan became “America First.” This hearkened back to the huge movement, prior to Pearl Harbor, to keep America out of World War II, which was led by classical liberals of the time. Naturally, he was smeared as a “Nazi” for using the term.

Putting American interests first was portrayed as something controversial. Imagine the Chinese public rejecting a leader who wanted to put Chinese interests first. Imagine any predominantly nonwhite country doing that. Trump had been vocal about questioning the link between vaccines and autism in the recent past. He had been a prominent “Birther,” and tweeted out his suspicions that the woman who “verified” Barack Obama’s birth certificate just happened to be the only casualty of a subsequent plane crash. He brought up the death of Vince Foster. Rather absurdly, he mentioned a connection between Lee Harvey Oswald and Ted Cruz’s father.

After many rallies featuring the chant of “Lock her up”!” Trump told Hillary Clinton to her face, during one of their debates, that he was going to prosecute her once he was elected. He promised many things like that. An executive order on his first day in office, banning birthright citizenship, and sanctuary cities. Ending the H-1B visa foreign worker program. Unleashing a deportation squad to finally address the untold millions of illegals already in this country. Bringing the troops home, especially those nonsensically still stationed in their World War II locales. Auditing the Federal Reserve. He dropped hints about 9/11 and Joe Scarborough’s dead young intern.

Candidate Trump mentioned “globalists” almost as often as Alex Jones. And, of course, he actually appeared on Alex Jones’ show. I knew there was a very slim chance that Trump could actually be sincere, but I believed that if he did anything about illegal immigration alone, he was worth voting for. So I voted for him- the first Republican I ever voted for. Jimmy Carter was the only Democrat- but I was young, it was my first vote, and I still naively believed they were the good guys. I could rationalize that maybe, just maybe, Trump had made all the money he wanted, and was tired of “playing the game,” and really objected to what was going on.

When Trump picked Mike Pence as his running mate, it raised a few red flags, but he was still saying all that great stuff. Then came an election that I figured he had no chance of winning. The fix was in for the Queen of Corruption. When he won, it shocked me to the extent that I stopped making all political predictions. I certainly didn’t see that coming. And then he gave what was probably the second greatest Inaugural Address ever, after John F. Kennedy’s. It seemed like he might just be intent on trying to “drain the swamp.” And then came his appointments.

Trump’s cabinet choices were about as bad as it gets. He basically stocked his administration with the people a President Jeb Bush would have. I wondered how many members of the Trump administration actually voted for Trump. Needless to say, none of the promised executive orders were forthcoming. Even Obama’s ridiculous DACA program, which Trump blasted, remained intact. He told his supporters to stop chanting “Lock her up!” He joked, “that played well during the campaign. We don’t need that now.” He publicly said the Clintons were “good people.” The border was never closed. The troops weren’t brought home.

Trump instead became a cartoonish figure, getting into constant grade school level food fights on social media, often with self-important celebrities. He raged about “fake news,” and it became a part of the national lexicon. Perhaps that will be his enduring legacy, establishing “fake news” as a rebuttal to any information that you don’t like. Trump said, “I’m both a nationalist and a globalist.” He turned his back on Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., after offering him the chairmanship of a commission to look into the links between vaccines and autism. He publicly said Oswald did it.

Those who have read my work for a while know that I think Donald Trump was selected to play the part of a populist firebrand, who would inspire millions while infuriating millions more with his contentious personality. I dubbed it the Trumpenstein Project, and it succeeded admirably in its primary goal of hopelessly dividing the country. I also called him Trump/Goldstein, for how much he resembled Immanuel Goldstein, the ultimately fake opposition leader in Orwell’s 1984. The Two Minute Hate for Goldstein became a 24/7 hate for Trump. He garnered, and continues to garner, more hatred than any public figure in American history.

The 2020 election was rife with fraud. It may not have been all that much more corrupt than usual, but Trump’s presence put a real magnifying glass on it. And because he was involved, the many millions with Trump Derangement Syndrome didn’t care if there was massive fraud. They would have supported “vote early and often,” the dead voting, counting ballots multiple times, blocking observers at poll places, and all the other improprieties we saw, most of them recorded for posterity. Trump, unlike Ron Paul or any other party victimized by obvious electoral theft, was front and center, complaining that the election had been stolen from him.

We all know what happened on January 6. Well, some of us do. Millions believe that violent “insurrectionists” attempted to wrest control of the government from our esteemed statesmen, the Nancy Pelosis and Mitch McConnells. One of them even had the audacity to put his boots on Lady Pelosi’s desk. Two years later, an untold number of these political prisoners remain behind bars, denied all due process. Others have been given draconian prison sentences that would fit nicely into the plot of Oliver Twist. And after throwing them under the bus as soon as the trouble started, Donald Trump has essentially ignored his hardcore J6 supporters ever since.

I will go over all the gory details of Trump’s flip-flopping on the lockdowns and vaccines, in my upcoming book Masking the Truth. Trump continues to claim credit for a largely untested shot that most of his supporters recognize is dangerous and often deadly, while his salivating enemies cling to it with a maniacal passion. After the equally dubious 2022 midterm elections, Trump again alleged fraud, but not as many were listening. There was no buffoonish legal team left to “release the Kraken.” He actually said that he was not to blame for any candidates who lost, but should receive full credit for those who won.

Trump has attacked his most likely competition for the MAGA vote, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. Mike Lindell, the My Pillow guy who was deeply involved with trying to expose 2020 voting shenanigans, announced he was investigating DeSantis’ vote in the midterms, insinuating that perhaps it wasn’t a legitimate win. Trump has clearly lost a lot of support, and DeSantis seems like a more eloquent and electable candidate for the populist right. He’s undeniably younger. Trump has announced a run for 2024, but his heart doesn’t seem in it. There is little talk about immigration now, accept to criticize Biden’s insane policy, but Trump deported fewer illegals than Obama.

Trump had an opportunity to stem the deadly globalist tide of war and wealth disparity, which had reigned unchallenged since they murdered JFK. He could have signed an executive order tying all government benefits to immigration status. That would have resulted in massive self-deportations. He could have backed that vaccines-autism commission, but that would have spoiled the upcoming COVID narrative. He could have brought the troops home, and stationed a fraction of them at the border. He could have convinced many of us that voting can make a difference.

Trump permitted nationwide riots during the summer of 2020. He stood idly by, tweeting away, as historical statues were torn down, and landmarks were littered by graffiti. He acted the part of the Last White Hope, an alpha male from a departed generation. But he governed like an inanimate object. He was hated by many for what he didn’t do, and loved by others for what he didn’t do. For his first two years in office, Trump had control of both houses of Congress. He bragged that we would get tired of all the winning. Exactly what was accomplished during that time? Instead, Trump tweeted and played golf. A lot of golf.

Trump failed so miserably that some of the very issues he raised, will be instantly mocked by the state controlled media, and the millions of Americans who will hate anyone who raises them as much as they hate Trump. Things instantly became so much worse after him, because of all the things he failed to do. Even on his way out of office, he couldn’t do the right thing. He didn’t pardon Assange, or Snowden, or Manning. Instead, he pardoned the president of Death Row Records, and some other rappers. All of whom, like his cabinet choices, would never have voted for him.

As I said, I don’t make predictions. They just make you look foolish, because they are usually wrong. But it does look like the Trumpenstein Project has run its course. The celebrities won’t allow another four years of Trump. They’d have to move to Canada, after closing their Twitter accounts. It was a great run. The elite killed any Third Party movement for good, by getting everyone firmly planted in pro and anti Trump factions. Populism instinctively resounds with the people, but now populist rhetoric will sound too much like Trump. Trump was our last hope, and he was an actor. All you have to do is look around you to know we lost. But they won. Won bigly.

The airwaves are ringing with more ominous predictions of World War III, from both the state controlled mainstream media and the alternative press. Another world war seems like a pretty odd thing to be fantasizing about, and longing for, but that’s what’s happening. They aren’t warning against it; they are cheerleading for it.

For at least the past year, that overt cheerleading was directed towards Ukraine, where the world’s only penis-piano-playing “former” actor is head of state. #Stand With Ukraine was as popular in Congress as it was in Hollywood. The stars flocked to the supposed beleaguered war zone, to pay homage to the small but surely powerful Zelenskyy. Bono, the only rock star in the world who would rather attend Bilderberg meetings, somehow held a concert there. The logistics must have been a nightmare for the staffs of those involved. It was only by the grace of the God none of them believe in, that they didn’t perish in the fighting. Apparently, war zones are much safer than generally imagined.

But with the the world’s first terrorist attack by hand gliding, the focus has changed back to America’s most trusted ally. The one it has that “special relationship” with. The one that has garnered us the wrath of the entire Arab world. It’s probably fitting that the fear porn now emanates from the Middle East. After all, that’s where most people have thought the final battle would be fought- Armageddon and all that. Iran is the favorite whipping boy of our “free” press once again. Putin is yesterday’s fake news. Most high-profile American Jews are foaming at the mouth in anticipation. The Christian Zionists have doom boners over the prospect of the Antichrist arising, and solidly stand by Israel. It’s # Stand With Israel now.

It’s hard to reason with these Jews and born-againers both. The Jews have an intense loyalty to Israel, not to America. And the born-againers want war to happen, so it fulfills Biblical prophecy. I’ve spoken to enough of them to know that they don’t want cooler heads to prevail. They must have this war, so they can quote even more extensively from the Book of Revelation. I don’t know, it just seems unnatural, at least to me, to favor war over peace, because you interpret parts of the Bible to say that it will happen. Wouldn’t a benevolent God be pleased with us, if we showed the better angels of our nature (yeah, I still like that phrase of Lincoln’s) and achieved peace?

As we stand on the precipice of war, where we have been standing for well over a year at least, I want to provide at least one voice saying that it isn’t inevitable. And, in fact, the nonstop fear porn is reminiscent not only of the COVID psyop, but essentially standard operating procedure for our corrupt and incompetent leaders since well before I was born. Dire things are always about to happen, according to our “journalists” and the corrupt public officials they cover for. And nothing is more dire than a new world war. I’ve been guilty of this too, in a way. How long have I been saying that the system has to collapse? Some of us first started saying this in the 1980s. Which is about when the preppers (then called survivalists) became prominent.

I’m looking at a basement full of bottled water as I write this. If things don’t ever collapse, it’s going to be quite a chore getting rid of it. No one wants old bottled water. Unless you’re at real crisis level. Walking Dead status. Remember when we were going to run out of food? Was it two years ago? I’ve already forgotten. Most all the bigger podcasts in the alt media advertise and/or sell prepping equipment. Along with all those vitamins and supplements, of course. Just like the television networks sell Big Pharma products and interracial relationships. We’re all selling something. I have no advertisers for my “I Protest” podcast. Let me know if you have something to sell. As long as its not Viagra or Bud Light, we can work something out.

This is why I never make predictions. I have no idea what is going to happen, politically or culturally. I never foresaw my kids’ generation liking coffee and poker. As I’ve said many times, I would have bet every penny I have that the 2016 election would be rigged for Hillary Clinton, the Queen of Corruption. I would have picked every other Democratic Party presidential candidate to be selected over the rapidly diminishing Joe Biden. I certainly can’t tell what they have planned for 2024. Michelle Obama? Trump being president from a prison cell? Who knows? I don’t get invites to Bohemian Grove. But a lot of others in the alt world do make predictions. Which are almost always wrong. They just never mention that.

I used to rant and rave about how all the female “journalists” on television just happen to look like all the actresses. Don’t any average-looking females excel in journalism school, I asked. In my novel The Unreals, I had the characters make up lists of the most exclusive minority groups in the world, which was a tip of the hat to those Book of Lists series that I really enjoyed. I remember that, alongside Jewish janitors and Unsuccessful Offspring of the Successful, I listed Overweight Victoria’s Secret models. Well, fast forward to 2023, and Victoria’s Secret actually has overweight models. I obviously never saw that coming. I thought “pretty privilege” was about the greatest benefit anyone could enjoy. Now I’m starting to feel sorry for the hotties.

I don’t know why RFK, Jr. is running for president, or being allowed to run. Was he compromised first before being given permission? His sudden emergence as Israel’s most enthusiastic supporter this side of Ben Shapiro probably answers that question. At least he hasn’t urged the Israelis to “finish off” the Palestinians, as the lovely and demure Nikki Haley has. So that’s something. Maybe Biden will cancel the 2024 election. That one’s been around since at least the Clinton years. The alt media has said “this is the last election” after pretty much every election since then. Or the one where the current horrific president will declare martial law. Oddly, few seemed to correlate that with the very real lockdown of society that happened in 2020.

But then again, I’ve never been good at looking ahead, even though I’m never “in the moment.” They used to ask us, back in the ancient times of America 1.0, where we “saw ourselves” five years, or ten years, in the future. I never had a satisfactory answer for them. First, I hoped to still be alive and well. Then I’d usually mumble something about being a published author. I didn’t have many defined goals, outside of finding someone to love who loved me back, and eventually seeing my name in print. No one liked my answer. I was told I lacked ambition, which I guess I do. Conventional ambition, anyhow. Wanting your name in print is, I think, pretty ambitious.

In the 1960s, we had Jeane Dixon. She was given the special honor of being America’s most notable prophet. Kind of like a Poet Laurette for a society that has no poets. Anyway, Dixon was always wrong. Always. If you’d thrown a dart somewhere, you would have been more accurate than her. Every year, she saw Atlantis rising from the sea. And the UFO occupants were finally going to go public. The truth about the JFK assassination was finally going to be revealed. Lots of public figures were going to be assassinated who never were. One year, she predicted that Earth’s teenagers were going to be abducted by Martians. If that happened, I missed it.

There are professional psychics. They can supposedly solve crimes, and the police often use their services. Since the police also often frame the innocent and refuse to admit they were wrong, this means little to me. They’ll tell your future, and even potentially save your life by warning you against going somewhere, or doing something. For a fee, of course. Freedom isn’t free. Everybody’s selling something, as I said. They differ a bit from the palm readers, or the mediums who were widely popular in the nineteenth century before being generally discredited. Lincoln and his wife held seances in the White House. What with tyrannizing the public and trampling on the Constitution, it’s a wonder he had time for that.

From New Age mystics, to right-wingers going off the grid, lots of Americans think they see what’s coming down the pike. But you’ll have to pay for that knowledge. And no refunds. If they’re wrong, which they’ll almost certainly be, don’t mention it in front of their supporters. It’s not good for business. They can sense trends. You’d think that they’d be able to profit in some way from the ability to see into the future, other than asking you to pay them, that is. Has any psychic ever won the big lottery? Think what a psychic, who happened to be a fan of Huey Long, could do with hundreds of millions. But Huey Long fans never win the big lottery, either.

I think all of this is connected somehow to the lack of desire on the part of very many people, to work for peace. To demand it, and to strongly oppose war. So many just parrot the Bible saying “There will be wars, and rumors of wars,” as if that means we shouldn’t try to stop or even oppose them. I look at it as God giving me the intellectual capacity to realize how wrong war, and corruption, and injustice, and unfairness, is. Why should we accept them, or tolerate them, just because they have always existed? Shouldn’t we try to do something on our own, instead of waiting for God to sort it all out?

I know- I’ve said that there is no human answer for the level of corruption and injustice in the world today. The entire system is rotten to the core, and every level of power is run by those with no scruples or principles. But I can’t stop pleading, I guess. I have that bleeding heart that classical liberals used to be noted (and ridiculed) for. As Teddy Kennedy said about his brother Bobby in the fantastic eulogy he delivered, he “saw wrong and tried to right it.” That’s what I’m trying to do, in my own small way, with the modest platforms at my disposal. If I were in Congress, I’d be constantly introducing legislation that failed to pass. Just like Senator Huey Long did.

As Jack Nicholson’s character said to the big Indian in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, “Well, at least I tried. At least I did that.” The poet Alexander Pope wrote, “Hope springs eternal in the human breast; Man never is, but always to be blest.” I think it works that way for the doomsters, too. And there are a lot of doomsters in our world today. We could amend that poem to read, “The sky never falls, but is always about to.” We have gone downhill, by every measure, during the course of my lifetime. The only time I think we improved a bit is when Disco finally died at the end of the 1970s. The culture got better just because of that.

I’m as cynical as they come much of the time. Ask anyone who knows me. I used to read Ambrose Bierce’s The Devil’s Dictionary every day. But I still maintained a streak of naive optimism, due to my fondness for fairy tales, and Frank Capra films, and the myth of JFK’s Camelot. I blanched, and still blanch at premonitions of disaster. Aren’t things bad enough without consistently inaccurate predictions? The only prediction I can make is that, whatever happens, it won’t be with our input, and it will result in things being worse for the mass of people. I would think that’s pessimistic enough without any asteroids, or solar flares, the Great Tribulation, or a literal end of the world scenario. Keep your faith, but don’t give up on the tiny ripples of hope.

When I was a kid, hijacking airplanes was popular. I was too unsophisticated to understand just who was doing the hijacking, but I knew they were bad guys, and they always demanded to be taken to Cuba. The Cuban hijackers disappeared somewhere around the time the neocons took power for good in the Reagan administration.

In the 1980s, I communicated regularly with several far right-wingers, and one of their primary concerns was “terrorism.” And survivalism (still popular). They no longer feared airplanes being hijacked to Cuba. There were now bigger fish to fry. Yasser Arafat and his Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) became the face of this new threat, which our vaunted intelligence agencies warned us about. They were always predicting some kind of ramped up attack in this country, none of which ever happened. There were isolated incidents around the world, and either the PLO or some lesser known offspring would inevitably claim “credit” for it. I’m not sure what claiming “credit,” in other words, admitting criminal guilt, did in terms of advancing their cause, but then I’ve never been a terrorist.

One of the most notable of all alleged terrorist incidents was the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland on December 21, 1988. On a trivial but interesting side note, one of the victims was the son of David White, the actor who played Larry Tate, Darren’s boss on the television series Bewitched. Maybe he was into the JFK assassination. At any rate, the Department of Justice finally tracked down someone with “Mohammad” in their name, and the charges against him were unsealed in court in December, 2022. If that seems like an inordinate length of time to capture one of the world’s most prolific terrorist killers, you’re unfamiliar with our wonderful system of justice. It’s a wheels grind slowly thing, you wouldn’t understand.

In the 1993 attack on the World Trade Center, the FBI utilized the kind of informants they always do at these events. The fake terrorist had more principles than our wonderful G-Men, and tried to stop it. I told the whole story in Hidden History. It wasn’t pretty, but it was typical. And after setting the whole thing up, using guys named Mohammad that worked for them, not any terrorist outfit, our government lied as usual, and lectured us about how this event made fighting terrorism more crucial than ever. Be afraid. Be very afraid. Keep your eyes open for “sleeper cells.”

We all know what happened at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Well, actually most Americans don’t, since they believe the fantastic fairy tale spun by our unchecked intelligence agencies. While Yasser Arafat had only been 5’2, for this grand assignment, the lead bogeyman was the world’s tallest Arab, former CIA asset Osama Bin Laden. Maybe it was his great height, but Bin Laden proved much more successful than the world’s shortest terrorist had been. And to think he did it all from his secret lair in an undisclosed cave, arming his lackeys with deadly box cutters and plastic knives. He also chose pilots that couldn’t fly. In a nostalgic tip of the hat, he brought back the hijacking thing, although he left out Cuba.

I don’t know what happened to the original PLO. Did they disband? At any rate, over the years, we were told that one bloodthirsty group after another was the latest and greatest in the terrorist world. Al Qaeda, which Alex Jones, in his better days, wittily dubbed Al CIAda. Isis. Isil. The Taliban. The Muslim Brotherhood. Hezbolah. Hamas. There was even the Symbionese Liberation Army, which was active for only a few years, but left its mark by kidnapping heiress Patty Hearst, and then seemingly enlisted her in their cause. I’m not certain what their name meant, but the FBI assured us that they were the first “terrorist” organization to emerge from the counterculture Left. To explain Hearst’s cooperation, the term “Stockholm Syndrome” was introduced at her trial. Now millions have “Stockholm Syndrome.” Who knew?

It’s a funny thing about terrorists; although they are now invariably portrayed as enemies of Israel, they have rarely targeted Israel itself. But that changed last week. Hamas, now evidently taking over front-runner status in the world of competitive terrorism, unleashed a deadly assault on a music festival in Israel, killing many civilians. Their planning was decidedly unconventional. They flew in, very slowly of course, on hand gliders. It was almost as if Bin Laden was there, plotting it out like he did the whole box cutter-plastic knife thing. If it seems like terrorists using a Flintstones-like method of transportation should have been extremely easy for the IDF to detect and repel before they did any damage, you’re probably an anti-Semite.

The fact that we were told the music festival location had been changed at the last minute, to a much less secure spot, only added to the skepticism. Of normal citizens, in Israel and elsewhere around the world, that is. All government officials and professional “journalists” found it as credible as magic bullets, magic fertilizer bombs, unscathed hijacker passports and all the other fanciful tidbits they are forced to report with straight faces. From the available film footage, it didn’t really look like the worst modern terrorist attack on civilians ever. I didn’t see any crowds being fired on. Just a lot of Arabs jumping and chanting, and isolated, bloody corpses. Maybe I wouldn’t know what the world’s worst terrorist attack should look like. It bears repeating that I am a mere community college dropout.

While much of Israel seems skeptical of the official story, and at the very least thinks that the IDF stood down, in America, the Zionists are foaming at the mouth. Ben Shapiro looks like he’s ready for a padded room. At last report, I think he was pretty much demanding nuclear war. I asked him on Twitter (of course he never replied) about who he would support, in the unlikely event of a war between America and Israel. I also asked him if he had dual citizenship. Lots of prominent American public figures do. Like that Republican congressman who proudly wore his IDF military uniform to Congress the other day. I’m wondering what the reaction would be if say, Rashida Talib wore a Palestinian military uniform into work one day. Does Palestine even have uniforms?

Few Americans probably know this, but an extraordinary number of our elected “representatives” hold dual Israeli citizenship. Before Diane Feinstein’s recent death, there were thirteen U.S. Senators who also are Israeli citizens. This includes Majority Leader Chuckie Schumer. Past dual Senators include former Saturday Night Live writer Al Franken. In the House, there are nearly thirty dual citizens. Among them are the infamous “Russia! Russia! Russia!” proponent Adam Schiff, and corrupt former DNC head Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who helped to rig the primaries against her fellow dual-citizen Bernie Sanders. If that seems like a lot of Israelis in our Congress, again, you’re probably an anti-Semite. I’m wondering why there are no dual Russian-American citizens in Congress, extolling the virtues of Vladimir Putin.

They tell us that it’s against the law for government officials to hold dual citizenship. I guess it’s never enforced. In 2014, the great Barack Obama appointed Stanley Fischer as Vice-Chair of the Federal Reserve. Fischer was photographed flashing his Israeli identity card with a huge smile on his face. But he wasn’t really a government official, seeing as how the “Federal” in Federal Reserve is as dishonest and phony as everything else they sell us. The Chairman of the Fed has been Jewish since at least 1987, and it’s a good bet they were all dual citizens as well. Former Reagan appointee Dov Zakheim, who was second in command at the Defense Department on 9/11, was yet another dual citizen. And oh yeah, he also happens to be a rabbi.

The list of dual citizens is too long to list here. There was Richard Perle, who was caught red-handed giving the Israeli Embassy classified documents, while he served on the staff of neocon Senator Henry Jackson. Nothing happened to him of course, and he went on to become a foreign policy adviser to Bush the Elder, and then chairman of the Pentagon’s Defense Policy Board. Paul Wolfowitz. Edward Luttwak. Kenneth Adelman. Elliott Abrams. Even Henry Kissinger, the world’s first 100 year old obese man. Looking at just a partial list, it’s easy to see why it would be impossible for our government to ever criticize Israel.

Dual Israeli citizens are prominent in private industry as well. The guy who developed The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers was an Israeli who eventually sold out to Hasbro for a tidy $522 million. Jordache Jeans was founded by an Israeli. Larry Ellison, founder of the Oracle Corporation, has donated huge sums of money to various causes in Israel, including the IDF. Michael Bloomberg, former mayor of New York and perhaps the most ridiculous presidential candidate in recent memory. Sheldon Adelson, Las Vegas casino magnate, has given hundreds of millions to Israel, is a BFF of Benjamin Netanyahu, and was Donald Trump’s most notable dual citizen financial backer. Michael Dell, founder of Dell computers, gives millions to the IDF.

Leslie Wexner, who became a billionaire through the Limited and Victoria’s Secret, established a foundation that runs Israeli programs and fellowships with the goal of “strengthening Israel’s public leadership” and connecting policy makers in Israel and America. Under its auspices, Israeli public officials receive all-expenses-paid master’s degrees from Harvard University. New England Patriots’ owner Robert Kraft has invested large portions of his fortune into Israel, including building Jerusalem’s Kraft Family Stadium. Isaac Perlmutter of Marvel Entertainment. Daniel Gilbert, owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers and founder of Quicken Loans, is a big financial supporter of Friends of the IDF, declaring, “We should feel fortunate that the brave people from the IDF are out there defending Jews, because Jews, as we all know, were not defended for centuries and centuries.”

Media mogul Haim Saban brags, “I’m a one-issue guy, and my issue is Israel.” Bernard Marcus of Home Depot sits on the board of directors of the Republican Jewish Coalition and co-founded the Israel Democracy Institute, a think tank based in Jerusalem. S. Daniel Abraham, founder of weight-loss company Slim Fast, is inexorably tied to Israel. He funded the Dan Abraham School for Business Administration and Economics at Bar-Ilan University in Israel, the S. Daniel Abraham Israel Program at Yeshiva University, and the S. Daniel Abraham Honors Program at Stern College for Women. I could go on. But you get the point.

I don’t think CNN’s beloved Wolf Blitzer is even a dual citizen. He is a citizen of Israel, however, Shouldn’t American television network anchor positions be reserved for American citizens? Yes, I know Peter Jennings was a Canadian, and just as bad as our own, native-born talking heads. Or Israeli-born Blitzer for that matter. But we’ve never fought a war on Canada’s behalf, to my knowledge. How many have we fought on Israel’s behalf? How many troops have we committed to fight Israel’s endless battles, earning us Israeli’s enemies? And yet here we stand again, with every dual citizen using their powerful pulpits to urge us to “do something.”

And despite all this Zionist power in America, the beloved Joe Biden assures us that it is “White Supremacists” who present the greatest “threat” to our “democracy.” I don’t think there is a “White Supremacist” anywhere in America today who has risen above the level of assistant manager at a fast food establishment. But you could certainly make a strong case for “Israeli Supremacists” holding inordinate power. And they are certainly a threat to Americans who don’t hold dual citizenship in Israel, in terms of being hired for those important, well-paying jobs. I wonder why Donald Trump didn’t mention this, what with all that “America First” stuff?

And what about Iran? The “state sponsor” of terrorism, whatever that means. I think it means about as much as the taglines “cult leader” David Koresh or “Panamanian strongman” Manuel Noriega once did. It’s a convenient descriptive term, for the narrative scriptwriters. It just seems like dual Israeli citizens in high U.S. positions might be more concerning to the average American, than a Third World nation that has never invaded another sovereign country in modern times, unless you count its war with Iraq, in which we supported our then CIA asset Saddam Hussein. The whole Iran hostage thing was tied in with yet another American intelligence project- October Surprise. All in all, the Iranians seem a lot less threatening than our own military. We are still occupying several countries.

I hear average people, the kind of Americans who are notorious for “not knowing shit,” to paraphrase Chris Rock, pontificating about Hamas, Hezbolah, and the like. “We’re in trouble if Hezbolah gets involved,” they’ll say. What exactly is the difference between Hezbolah and Hamas? Between Al Qaeda and Isis? Are they affiliated with each other, or working at cross purposes? I would like some neocon “expert” to delineate the distinctions, in language the layman can understand. Dumb it down to the level of an America 2.0 layman. To me, they just seem like the old Indians from central casting. Jumping up and down, yelling out gibberish. Trying to look suitably terroristic. The bane of every dual citizen’s existence.

Alex Jones once claimed that Saudi Arabia “runs Hollywood.” Yeah, he actually said that. He’s also said that China does, too, which has some truth to it. Paddy Chayefsky, an acclaimed playwright and screenwriter, pictured growing Arab power- not the self-evident long time disproportionate Jewish power- taking over the media in the compelling 1976 film Network, which happens to be one of my good friend John Barbour’s favorites. Are Americans ever going to be “mad as hell” at all the dual loyalists who determine the fate of our supposedly sovereign nation? Or will they continue to rage against Hamas and other groups, who probably consist largely of American and Mossad assets, instead? I wish the answer wasn’t so obvious.

Zionists, including many who are dual citizens of Israel, are deeply woven into the top tiers of leadership in this crumbling country. So when you saw so many of them angrily calling for “retaliation,” and actions that could precipitate a new world war, it’s understandable given the context. We need not go back to loyalty oaths. But those who hold powerful positions in America should logically be American. It’s one thing to have Mexican citizens cutting your grass for a few pesos. It’s quite another for a “representative” loyal to another nation to be elected to public office. Our “special relationship” with a ministate we created by stealing the land of others, has garnered billions for a chosen few. But it’s brought nothing good to the American people.

I’ve written something like this pretty much every Memorial Day, since I first joined social media. It’s become a tradition. Consider it an antidote to all the flag waving, “thank you for your service” platitudes you’ll see everywhere else. I hate war. Period. As the great Jeannette Rankin said, it’s a stupid way to resolve things.

Now I’m no pacifist. If I am personally attacked, or my family is attacked, I will certainly fight back. If I thought aliens exist, I guess I could fight for Earth. But we’re much more likely to get a fake invasion- Project Blue Beam. If somehow there was a foreign bogeyman that was able to invade our shores, like England did in 1812, I’d obviously support defending ourselves. There is no chance of that happening, because all the countries of the world are aligned in a mass conspiracy to subvert their own people. If it wasn’t obvious with the yearly Bilderberg and Bohemian Grove confabs, the tyrannical “COVID-19” narrative should have drummed that home.

Peace has never been popular. Especially among those who very publicly express their Christianity, and call Jesus the Prince of Peace. Although admittedly, this is a label that is used a lot less frequently now. People love war- old people, women, and children. The men of fighting age probably don’t support it quite as heartily as they did during the countless wars of the past, but they are still volunteering (albeit in smaller numbers) to work for a now woke Military Industrial Complex. Not sure what the women of fighting age think about it. And, of course, the pivotal transgender fighting age view is largely unknown, but they are sure to strike fear in the hearts of whatever new fake opponent is on the battlefield.

War has always been popular. We celebrate “war heroes,” but never “peace heroes.” There may have been peaceful activists during our Revolutionary War, urging diplomacy, whose names have been erased from history. We know what happened during the Civil War, to untold thousands of northerners who opposed Lincoln’s insane and bloody war. The sane ones who opposed the Spanish-American War in 1898 are not remembered. Eugene Debs and the others who objected to the totally senseless World War I were thrown in prison by benevolent “liberal” Woodrow Wilson. And the Supreme Court upheld Wilson’s right to do this.

By World War II, most Americans had learned their lesson. The America First Committee, which included mostly classical liberals and luminaries like Charles Lindbergh and Joseph P. Kennedy (father of JFK), were relentlessly attacked by the warmongering Roosevelt administration and the compliant mainstream media. Neville Chamberlain became England’s version of Benedict Arnold, by advocating for peace with Germany. Rudolph Hess crash landed a plane in England, on an unofficial peace mission from Germany. He was sentenced to the harshest life sentence imaginable at the Nuremberg show trials. Poet Ezra Pound made radio broadcasts sympathetic to Mussolini, and was thrown into a mental institution for a decade.

Where were the antiwar activists during the ridiculous Korean conflict? It was just as stupid and pointless as the upcoming undeclared war in Vietnam, which did garner the first and only large scale antiwar protests in this nation’s history. There were no large marches against the continuous stream of nation building invasions of smaller countries, starting with the 1989 Gulf “War,” all of them on behalf of Israeli interests. Curiously, over the past decade or so, the Left has finally awakened to the horrific treatment of the Palestinians, but it has not impacted their consistent support of any of our endless foreign interventions.

Now the Left, and the neocon Right which took over our foreign policy during the Reagan administration, are openly lobbying for World War III. Vladimir Putin is the latest hobgoblin to be trotted out as Public Enemy Number One. The pro-war crowd has become so enabled by the citizenry waving those flags while they instinctively vote them back into office, that they now publicly talk about a “nuclear option.” The same folks who attended the No Nukes rock concerts forty years ago, are now embracing them. Perhaps they can invent a new suitable Idiocracy-style mantra, like Mo Nukes. I’m sure Bruce Springsteen, Bono, and others would be on board.

Despite their undeniable dead Whiteness, George Washington, Andrew Jackson, and others who fought in our nonstop wars are still considered heroes. Even the millions who write them off as “racists,” like all the other White guys, don’t disparage their military service. It’s odd that, given how since the Korean War, every conflict we’ve been involved in has been waged against nonwhite people, the “Woke” forces don’t proclaim those wars to be “racist.” And now that they have the first foreign White bogeyman since Hitler, they are bound to be even more enthusiastic about stopping Putin, who is already portrayed as a “racist.”

I’ve written about the real war records of “heroes” like the bloodthirsty Union generals in the Civil War, led by the utter psychopath William Sherman. Or the rapes and atrocities committed by our own “Greatest Generation” during World War II. I detailed how our lovable troops bulldozed living Iraqis who were attempting to surrender. Then there was the U.S. government assassination program in Vietnam, Operation Phoenix. And starting under our first half-Black president’s administration, the American government began not only supporting assassination, but boasting about it incessantly. We came, he died, and all that.

When we celebrate the memories of those who died in these perpetual conflicts, we ensure that our bloody and disastrous “bipartisan” foreign policy will continue. It’s ironic that, in our culture of victimhood, these young men who were senselessly slaughtered are not considered victims. No, they are instead heralded as heroes. I mean no disrespect to these hapless souls. Most of them probably thought they were fighting for the noble causes their politicians and media told them they were fighting for. Their families were left understandably grieving. All the young boys from the Civil War to Afghanistan who never came home, left voids that can never be filled.

I understand how comforting it must have been, and still is, to have the government that caused their deaths, laud them as courageous and bestow posthumous medals upon them. If they’d died in a car wreck, or from a drive-by shooting, there would be no such honors, by the government or the public. The deaths of all young people are equally tragic, at least to the loved ones left behind. The Military Industrial Complex that thrives on war, and needs a constant replenishment of usually poor human flesh with which to fight them, essentially gets the credit and the praise for the overblown tributes to veterans. Think of it as accepting an Oscar for a deceased winner.

If you “support the troops,” you support the chicken hawks and evil elite who give them their nonsensical and often diabolical assignments. You support the international bankers who finance this culling of the herd. As Smedley Butler noted, war is never about enemies, but about opportunities for profit. I would argue that the eugenicists who fantasize about millions dying have quite a stake in the madness as well. And it is indeed largely the “useless eaters,” the ones who aren’t the “fittest” in their evolutionary doctrine, that fight and die in these conflicts. Few wealthy families have ever had to mourn the loss of a soldier. Which again makes the Kennedys so special, given all they sacrificed to the carnage in World War II.

From Abraham Lincoln writing one of his typically flowery letters to a mother who had lost five sons on Civil War battlefields, congratulating her on such a magnificent sacrifice on “the altar of freedom,” to the Bush administration trying to assuage former NFL player Pat Tillman’s family, despite the fact it was eventually shown he was killed by “friendly fire,” the government has basically bought off the sentiments of grieving family members. With medals, flag draped coffins, and assurances that their boys were heroes who gave their lives in the cause of “freedom.” Just like the Ukrainians are dying now for the “democracy” their dictator extolls. The kind that locks up dissidents and shuts down the opposition press. Just like Lincoln.

I’d rather remember the only president we’ve ever had who rejected the overtures of war from his masters- John F. Kennedy. In his American University speech in June, 1963, JFK said things no politician had ever said before. He acknowledged that our enemies- at that point the Soviets- were human. That they loved their children. Instead of demonizing the opposition, as politicians have always done, Kennedy empathized with them. He advocated for peace, “for all time.” He signed his death warrant with this speech, which I consider the greatest ever given by any president in American history.

There will be lots of other speeches today, giving you the conventional view of Memorial Day. That we are honoring the dead who died so that we could be free. Except we are less free now than we’ve ever been. But I won’t rain any more on the parades. All that’s missing is an official proclamation that War is Peace. Without attributing it to Orwell. As Jeannette Rankin, the greatest female public figure (who is not on any of our collapsing currency) once said, you can no more win a war than you can win an earthquake. And to quote one of Benjamin Franklin’s least publicized remarks, there is no such thing as a good war, or a bad peace.

First of all, I think we owe a debt of gratitude to all the terrorists in the world. They’d been kind enough to stop launching attacks at defenseless civilians for nearly four years. Which coincides with the emergence of COVID-19 into the world. Now, they’re back. Bigger than ever. Can terrorism and COVID coexist?

Israel, despite being about the size of Rhode Island, has the fourth most powerful military in the world the last time I checked. Of course, that couldn’t happen naturally. They had help. Lots of help. From American taxpayers. We built that. But despite the fact they have this magnificent defense system, we are supposed to accept that they were caught by surprise by Hamas, who’d been hibernating along with Isis, Isil, the Taliban, the Muslim Brotherhood, and Al-CIAeda since early 2020. Evidently, even they were afraid of a viral strain that still hasn’t been isolated (i.e., proven to exist). Terrorists don’t scare easy. But then again, the terrorists caught the most powerful defense system the world has ever seen- our Military Industrial Complex- by surprise as well on 9/11. I wonder if the security cameras were working in Israel?

With the great success the tallest Arab the world has ever seen had on 9/11, you’d think he would have hatched more nefarious schemes from his secret cave. After all, we’ve done nothing to upgrade our ancient power grids. And with most of the sensors provided by China, it should be pretty easy for any aspiring terrorist to take them out. Mild winds and light rain can do that. And what with the wide open southern border, they should be able to sneak some suicide bombers in there, alongside the drug lords and battle-aged male migrants. Nobody’s checking anything. It’s America 2.0. Take off your COVID masks and start looking for “sleeper cells.” If you see something, say something! I wonder if “White Supremacists” are still our greatest threat?

I haven’t seen any comments from politicians, along the lines of, “Gee, we really need to stay out of that crazy place. It’s none of our business!” They could follow up with, “Our infrastructure hasn’t been upgraded in over 60 years. The disparity of wealth is larger than ever. They claim we’re somehow running out of water. People are crapping in the streets.” Funny, we used to be concerned when dog owners didn’t pick up their crap from the street. But no one’s even cleaning up the human waste. That’s really not fair to dogs. Why can’t they crap in the street and have no one worry about it? Don’t dogs have rights, too? Someone call the ASCPA.

When your own home is as dilapidated as America’s is, you don’t worry about fixing the neighbors’ houses first. When your own kids are starving, you don’t buy food for the neighbors’ kids. Sorry if that sounds like America First, but charity begins at home. But let’s say your society is run by a corrupt criminal elite, whose souls have been figuratively or literally sold to Satan. Then you’d want to distract from your voluminous bad deeds. You’d want to construct foreign hobgoblins, to use the great H.L. Mencken’s term, to keep the public pleading with you to keep them safe. Hitler, Castro, Hussein, Qadaffi, Bin Laden- a murderer’s row of bogeymen.

But the greatest collective hobgoblin, since the 1970s or so, has been “terrorism.” As has been said, one man’s (or woman’s, or transgender’s) terrorist is another’s freedom fighter. George Washington and the Minute Men would have gone down in history as despicable terrorists if we had lost the War for Independence. And England didn’t come over and take our land, then literally claim we never existed, as was done to the Palestinians. Sure, Palestine can be found on old maps, but that doesn’t matter to the most die-hard Zionists. They will tell you “there was no such thing as Palestine.” It’s bad enough, when the world’s greatest military powers arm your religious rivals to the teeth, and steal your land. But then to claim you never existed?

Tulsi Gabbard made an ass out of herself by proclaiming, “We stand with Israel.” RFK, Jr. has already made amends for sharing some tweets from Roger Watters. Who can forget him running out and waving the Israeli flag in a parade? Nikki Haley is demanding that the Palestinians be wiped out. At least that’s the way I interpreted her comments. That’s bound to give Trumpenstein a healthy orange erection. DeSantis is probably scheduling his next trip to the Wailing Wall. The new Speaker of the House, Steve Scalise, shockingly expressed wholehearted support for Israel. Never let it be said that our politicians aren’t consistently willing to court controversy.

Fox News should just superimpose the Israeli flag behind every one of their talking heads. Dan Bongino dropped the MAGA stuff and almost tearfully warned us how dangerous the situation is now. In this country. He advised us to keep looking over our shoulder. There could be a terrorist, or even a “sleeper cell,” behind the local McDonald’s. Anyone named Mohammed is suspect. Didn’t conservatives like Bongino rightfully decry the COVID fear porn? What exactly is he selling, other than fear porn? I heard ominous predictions about “terrorism” going back to the 1980s. We need more money to combat terrorism. And Israel really needs it. Could Israel even exist without our financial aid? How are they anything but a welfare state?

I’ve analyzed what videos are out there of the Hamas attack, and they consist mostly of lone individuals being dragged from cars, or bodies lying in various places. Lots of Arabs jumping up and down and shouting. I caught an “Allah” or two. I don’t know what the greatest mass attack on civilians ever seen, which is what some histrionic commentator called it, is supposed to look like. Just like I said I didn’t know what a pandemic was supposed to look like, but it shouldn’t look like those empty hospital videos. One photo of what we were told was a naked Israeli woman (she was not naked), looked, well…how do we put it? As I pointed out on Twitter, her right leg appeared to have been in an impossibly contorted position. Shades of the backyard photos that helped to incriminate Lee Harvey Oswald.

The bloody bodies that I saw reminded me very much of the footage from the Boston Bombing. Dave McGowan analyzed all that brilliantly, before he developed a Jack Ruby- style of galloping cancer. And died on November 22. You can’t make that up. If I wanted to create a “terrorist” video, I think I’d hire a bunch of guys who looked Arabic, and tell them to jump around and shout something the audience wouldn’t understand. Whoop it up, like the Indians used to do in Hollywood productions. But I’m not a filmmaker, so what do I know? I’m just a community college dropout, using my critical thinking ability to make observations.

It just seems like the world’s fourth largest military should be able to spot and stop a bunch of guys yelling “Allah!” Just like our own Military Industrial Complex, the greatest defense system the world has ever seen, should have been able to respond to hijacked planes flying around for over an hour. Sure, they were armed with box cutters and plastic knives, but I feel confident even an entirely transgender military unit could have stopped them. And this was in 2001, back when there were only two genders. Men were still sometimes not telling if they were asked. There were no transgender armed forces. It’s a “Support the Troops thing,” you wouldn’t understand.

I want to make it clear that I condemn all atrocities. I write a lot about them in my books. Many were committed by us, not “terrorists.” I doubt any terrorist could kill some 39,000 toddlers, like we did during the bombing of Dresden, one of the meccas of culture in the world, and absent any military value whatsoever. But that was done by “good guys,” in a “good war.” So it’s all cool. If Hamas, whatever it is, and however it was formed and is financed, killed women and children in Israel, that’s a horrific thing. Of course, we mourn for those losses. Civilians should never be targeted by armies, in Israel now, or during Sherman’s “march to the sea” during the Civil War.

Israel has a long history of targeting Palestinian civilians, including children. Just don’t mention that to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Rachel Corrie was an American activist who unwisely sat down in protest, in front of an Israeli Defense Forces bulldozer. The brave Israeli soldier bulldozed her to death. And then demolished the Palestinian home she was trying to protect. The IDF has destroyed an unknown number of Palestinian residences like this. I don’t know, but it doesn’t seem right to give billions to those doing the bulldozing, while castigating those who escape the bulldozers and dare to protest. My Substack is called “I Protest,” after all. When your land is stolen, and then the area allotted to you constantly shrinks, you should be protesting.

Our government, naturally, did nothing when Rachel Corrie was murdered by our foremost ally. Just like they did nothing when the Israeli military attacked the U.S.S. Liberty. That event was covered up for decades. More recently, a Palestinian journalist who was an American citizen was shot and killed, not accidentally, by an Israeli soldier. They even know the soldier’s identity. And yet, Joe Biden, friend of the Squad, which fights for Palestinian rights, hasn’t attempted to extradite that soldier for prosecution. Come to think of it, I haven’t heard AOC, or Ilhan Omar, or any other “Woke” activist comment on this, either. It’s funny, because usually they’re so vocal.

When the true believers in Zionism got together and planted people on territory that had been occupied by others for centuries, because the Jews needed a “homeland,” they should have known that would create some severe backlash. Why, exactly, do Jews need a “homeland,” anyway? Should the Methodists be given Peru? We think of Jews as a religious sect, but they appear to think of themselves as an ethnic group. A race. So which are they? Both? How can so many label Christopher Columbus a “racist” for exploring a new continent, but ignore Menachem Begin’s part in blowing up the King David Hotel? Columbus is treated like a serial killer, who purposefully gave the Indians smallpox. Begin and others were actual terrorists, by any definition.

There was considerable initial opposition to the creation of Israel. Joseph P. Kennedy, Sr.- JFK’s dad- for instance. I will publish an extraordinary letter then 22 year old JFK wrote to his father, almost a decade before Israel was established, in my upcoming book The American Memory Hole. It is remarkably insightful, especially for one of his tender years. He foresaw all the problems that did indeed ensue. Truman’s Secretary of Defense, James Forrestal, was close friends with both JFK and his father. He was also one of the most vocal critics of the infant Israel. He wound up falling out of a window at Bethesda Naval Hospital. We know what happened to so many Kennedys. Opposing Israel isn’t good for one’s political career. Or life expectancy.

I don’t know what this incident will mean. Will this really precipitate World War III, which so many Americans seem to long for? Those propaganda films from the 1940s do make it look cool, don’t they? The handsome soldier palookas, and the slim and fit dames dancing with them at the canteens. The air raid wardens and victory gardens. It will spur the economy. And cull the herd. Sure, the vaccine may wind up doing that, but millions of mostly young White males dying is always good news at Eugenicist headquarters. You’ll have a chance to prove your loyalty. No loose lips. They sink ships, you know. Let’s further erode this “free speech” thing. It threatens democracy!

Maybe this is just a momentary blip. The alt media has been predicting World War III ever since Putin dared to rattle sabers with the world’s only penis-piano-playing- former-comedian head of state. Who is, naturally, an arch Zionist. Does the sudden attention focused on Israel mean Ukraine is yesterday’s fake news? Zelenskyy seems like a very jealous guy. He wants his billions and he wants them now! At the very least, our “democratic” government will simply hand out more billions to this actor unconvincingly portraying a soldier. And they’ve already handed out the first emergency billions to Israel. Instantaneously. You don’t have to legislate or appropriate, or budget, when it comes to war spending.

Those kinds of “democratic” niceties are reserved for infrastructure. And social safety net programs. Anything that might possibly help those most in need who were actually born in this country, is always tied to a new gas tax or a raise in personal property taxes. Where do they get the money to keep giving Ukraine? Where did they get the emergency billions for Israel? Obviously, if they cared enough about those suffering in the United States, they’d “appropriate” it in short order. Millions for illegal immigrant health care, but not a dime for homeless citizens. It’s all a matter of priorities. And their priorities are cheap nonwhite labor, and Israel. Not you.

We are told that Iran is a “state sponsor” of terrorism. How does that work? What does “sponsoring” mean in this context? My sister lived in Iran for many years. She described it as a threat to no one. It’s even poorer now than when she lived there, prior to the religious fundamentalists taking power. Do they “sponsor” with funds? How do they have funds to spare? Do they give these “terrorists” military hardware? How powerful is Iran’s military? Are they really a threat to the world’s fourth largest military? I think we’ve probably invaded at least a dozen countries since the last time Iran invaded anyone. We’re worried about them potentially developing nuclear weapons (and been warning about it for decades), but who dropped the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki?

Israel, meanwhile, was developing nuclear weapons back in 1963. Right around the time John F. Kennedy met his end in Dallas. JFK was engaged in a heated battle behind the scenes with Israeli prime minster David Ben-Gurion, over this very issue. Since November 22, 1963, there have been no other presidents- and very few politicians- who have dared to take on Israel. Look at the response to the Hamas attack on Capitol Hill. It’s embarrassing. Fewer of our own leaders would “stand with” America if Hamas attacked Des Moines, Iowa. There is the familiar insinuation that America must “act,” must “do something,” to help out our “only ally” in the Middle East. Why isn’t there an outcry to “do something” about our pothole infested roads?

I’d like to think Americans would be weary of war, or even threats of war. But they aren’t. They have become indescribably dumbed down. Except for all the kind folks reading my Substack, that is. They are lapping up the hackneyed “baby” propaganda, which began during World War I. Then it was the dreaded Hun bayoneting babies. During the Gulf “War,” a tearful young girl testified to Congress about babies being thrown out of incubators. She was exposed as the daughter of the Kuwait ambassador, who was lobbying for war. And now, Hamas is beheading babies. You’d think people would understand what wartime propaganda is by now, even when we’re not officially at war. They don’t even try to diversify the propaganda. Diversity is not their strength. They never vary the script.

I have no idea what will happen next. We could commit troops to Israel, to combat a reinvigorated Hamas, or connect Israel, Ukraine, Iran, and North Korea in some kind of battle lines that would fool the public, and give them that new World War they seem to be begging for. They don’t have to try very hard to fool this public. Or they could pivot to COVID Part 2. The level of obedience the sheeple showed, all over the world, must have warmed their evil, Luciferian hearts. We’re essentially lab rats to them. They ring the bell, and like Pavlov’s dogs, we always respond appropriately. Has there ever been a lab rat rebellion? Well, that’s the stage we’re at now. They control everything, and tell us we’re “free.”

I don’t think a kind and benevolent God would approve of the actions of the Israeli Defense Forces over the years. But then, I’ve never understood the whole “chosen people” thing. Why would they be “chosen” over all others? Christian Fundamentalists feel obligated to support Israel, no matter what, because of this. I don’t know, I would expect God’s “chosen people” to exhibit better behavior. It doesn’t seem very holy to destroy people’s homes, and to declare that they were never part of a nation that provably existed. America is all in on Israel. We’ve got a lot of money committed here. We’re concerned about their borders, not ours.

I just look around me and see a visibly crumbling nation. A true Banana Republic. I see taxation without representation. I see an out of control police force. I see a literally insane culture revolving around transgenderism. I see a disparity of wealth that has consigned the bottom half of the population to poverty or near poverty. I see a never ending flow of impossibly poor immigrants entering our country with no opposition. And so I just can’t worry about what’s happening in Israel, the Ukraine, or anywhere else in the world. Even if I accept what’s being reported at face value, we have huge concerns right here at home. That simply aren’t being addressed, let alone fixed. There is no reason to believe anything they say. I will hope for peace. Shalom.
