It’s pretty clear now that the Chinese Communist Party/Government unleashed a biological weapon on the world. The catastrophe known as the Covid-19 pandemic was man-made by a cabal of men hell bent on dominating the world. Of course, the reason is to hold power over the rest of us and amass riches. Well, it’s time to burst that bubble and payback these psychopaths.

NOTE: When I use the term China in this missive, I mean the Chinese Communist Party which is essentially the Chinese government. I empathize with the Chinese people who have to live under this totalitarian regime.

China lies about everything. They are not to be trusted even on written contracts that have been adjudicated. To believe that this virus came from a weird animal was one of the most suspended reality thoughts one could conjure. The failed media and Chinese sycophants including Disney, the NBA and others making billions, held their breadth that their “investments” were not going to go belly up. They continue to suck up to China chasing the almighty dollar but as short sighted as a CEO watching his stock price at the end of the quarter, they’ll get burned just like everyone else has been. Ask Honk Kongers.

No, it’s time we and the rest of the free world begin to put China on notice that we aren’t’ going to stand idle why they plot and execute their takeover. Yes, we have a free society that allows you to foment divisiveness through social media, infiltrate academia to steal, and invest in our companies to appropriate products and services, but that is about to come to a screeching halt. It’s time for China to pay up for its crime.

As of now, we and hopefully, the rest of the countries who have debt held by China are absolved of that debt. Here, like most other things with this government, how much debt they hold is unknown. The official estimate is $1.5t which is a pittance ( https://hbr.org/2020/02/how-much-money-does-the-world-owe-china) If they squawk about a lousy $1.5t, at least this lie comes unearthed. Of course, we should continue and expand our economic squeeze by limiting imports from China. Tariffs, quality checks of products and outright bans of certain items are all appropriate.

As important is cutting off the spigot of subterfuge occurring through allowing Chinese access to our universities, research facilities and companies. Visas should be restricted to persons who can be fully vetted and their whereabouts and activities strictly monitored during their entire time in the US. By virtue of this requirement, fewer Chinese will be admitted to the US. Additionally, they must be restricted from access to places and information that is essential to our country. Nothing here is different from what China does to Americans who visit their country. Tit for tat? Not quite given they killed over 600,000 Americans and 3,500,000 people in total, but it’s a start.

So now racism is defined as being Caucasian and voter suppression is asking for identification. “Fair” is whatever you want it to be and “equity” is defined as “equality” and are interchangeable. “Intersectionality” is being added as will a host of gender pronouns that Prince would be proud of. Male and female? Gone. Most intriguing is the rejection of empirical data to support definitions. The most glaring is who is “rich” and who is “poor”. Because so many real-world issues depend on these two terms, you would think a number(s) could help us out during the deliberations on policies.

For those who neglected to pay attention in history classes, using language to pervert dialogue is a tried-and-true Marxist/Fascist technique meant to obfuscate true intent. (Here’s a quick primer for those of you who slept through class. http://gulagbound.com/19609/cultural-marxism-the-doom-of-language/) “Gaslighting”, the intended use of language to make others question their sanity, is alight and growing. You can’t argue ideas if the words you use are re-defined every time you use them. It throttles efforts to find common ground, foments continued misunderstandings and is the bedrock for causing unrest and revolution.

Instead of talking past one another using ill-defined language, we would do well to avoid falling for the “new English”. Rather, we should deny the re-invention of our language and ask those using these terms to explain themselves in terms WE can understand. That is, have them seek to be understood rather than having the onus on us dweebs who are unfortunate enough to have lived when words had one commonly understood meaning. Without a grounded set of words and empirical facts, reasoned conversations are impossible, which is the goal of the Marxists. Using a traditional idiom, don’t drink the Kool-Aid!

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is tasked with keeping businesses from running roughshod over consumers and our economy. At its core, monopolistic and antitrust activities and deceptive and fraudulent practices are investigated and actions taken to curb them. The Biden administration clearly benefits from having big business behind it but the woke left is not so keen on having these behemoth companies hold more power than them so enter the crusader, Lina Khan.

Now that they have the prize (total control of the Federal government), the left no longer has to play nice with big business. The FTC is made up of five Commissioners and with the current one opening, the President (or more likely, whoever is propping him up), has nominated 35-year-old Colombia University Professor, Lina Khan for the open spot. The Professor is an avowed anti-big business advocate with a large compendium conveying her strong feelings about the concentration of power in big enterprises. She has stated current thinking favors corporate efficiency over competitive structure and that this is a short-sited approach. Rather, barriers to competition are being erected and strengthened with long term negative impacts. AMEN TO THAT!

So, while everyone likes a deal, that deal comes with strings. Yes, the big box store has pricing power and can buy in bulk passing those savings along to you …if they choose. The Mom-and-Pop store may not have that same luxury so when the big box store runs their “specials” that undercuts and eventually kills the Mom-and-Pop store, why would they run those specials again? With no competition, it’s not necessary and thus, the long-term negative impact.

Buy American mad products from your local store. If you must pay more at least the sales tax goes to your local governments and the jobs that store maintains pays people in your neck of the woods. We will all be better for it in the long run and on that, both the left and right can agree.

Lots of phony numbers are being thrown around on the amount of taxes owed and those collected. Apparently, we’ve been leaking trillions over the years and as a direct result of a scaled back IRS. The same IRS that illegally kept conservative non-profits from realizing legal benefits. Now we see the Marxists looking to expand the IRS by adding 80,000 new employees, all unionized of course, and opening our bank accounts for government view.

Part of my career was as an “auditor”. Each budget year, I had to fight for more staff and the way I did that was to show how much money I was saving the company through my “audits”. When my staff showed up at a Manager’s desk, it was not a warm reception. They knew we had to justify our existence on the backs of their department. We focused on process and ultimately, both the Manager and the Company benefitted from our work but who benefits when and IRS auditor pulls a rabbit regulation out the hat and hits you with more taxes owed AND a penalty; the State.  Adding 80,000 more auditors to the IRS and providing them with a microscope into our finances is a recipe for more skullduggery of the kind in the 2016 election.

We are humans and it is our nature to preserve and improve our lot in life. Do you think for one minute that an IRS auditor who is compensated by finding more tax dollars will see it in their heart to understand the complexity of the tax code and how we peons are supposed to bow to it? The tax code is a behemoth and resides in several places. First are the actual laws, then the IRS regulations and finally, case law. The culmination of this is a 70,000 page “Standard Federal Tax Reporter” publication produced by Commerce Clearing House. (https://taxfoundation.org/how-many-words-are-tax-code)

If you think that you will get a fair hearing when the rules are written by the very people adjudicating the case, I have some dogecoins in my pocket I’ll sell you. Making the IRS bigger and tasking them with finding even a portion of the supposed tax leakage is akin to giving a gun to a criminal and standing in front of them waving cash. Opening our private banking accounts to the state, is something China does, not a free society. Add to this some interest in a digital dollar that will enable the state to track every transaction your make and you can see how far afield of our free society we have come.

Of course, we want everyone to pay their full share of taxes owed but to suggest that trillions are being left on the table is a farce. If it’s even a fraction of that, its’ because of the poor construct of our tax system with carve outs for those who have an in, and a lack of transparency for us little people on how it all works. The big government pattern continues. Make things so complicated you can’t possibly stay on top of it. Have the state use that complexity to ruin you if they so choose, and blame you for your own demise. The sheep being led to slaughter have a better chance.

The state continues to invade our everyday life with a new round of “let me do that for you” entitlements. Having done such a good job with the FDR/LBJ entitlements of Social Security and Medicare, they’re quadrupling down with expanded paid family leave and child care, “free” pre-school and “free” college. (Tuition free community college and of course, waiver of federal loan repayment for college.) These proposals expand on the myriad of current federal programs and policies that have served to separate parents from raising their children. Worse, its put’s our children’s upbringing in the hands of the state and squarely into the indoctrination machine called public education.

I get that some women want to realize their full potential using their education. That used to be motherhood but now that is so old school. Rather, feminism made being a stay-at-home Mom an afront to womanhood. So, girls got education that was not to be “wasted” maintaining a household and raising children. They joined the ranks of corporations and went for the brass ring just like the boys. Some found the chase to be lacking and added motherhood to their quest. This begat the harried mother/worker who is “forced” to juggle motherhood and working, as if it wasn’t a choice.

Now we see women having babies with no male involved in the raising of the child. This void has yet to reveal its true unsavory implications but looking at the Black community, one can guess it won’t be good for our society. But wait! The state is here to make your life so much better. They need you to work because they need the tax revenue. The Ponzi scheme called Social Security depends on filling the pipeline with worker bees so enter the state with the mandated “take a few months off with your companies’ money to have a baby”. When those first months are over, the state will subsidize the cost of putting your infant into a day-care facility run by unionized workers. Perhaps they’ll get absorbed into the American Federation of Teachers union because they only have the child’s well-being as their charge…when not on strike. How long before these infant care sites are state run? At the age of 3, the state will start indoctrination by enrolling them in another unionized “free” pre-school. Head Start being just another “success” story that needs to be…duplicated? replaced? Along the way they’ll continue to give tax breaks and incentives for having more children (remember the Ponzi scheme). Children used as a means of controlling you.

So, when your kid comes home from school one day and says, they’re calling the “Domestic Terrorism Crisis Line” because you suggested they read the Declaration of Independence, look back on your vote for Joe Biden in 2020. Him and the Marxists running him are the ones raising your kid.

I’m reminded of the proverb “A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion.” Seems republicans are getting giddy over the mid-term prospects for their capturing the House and Senate. They contend the more the left screws things up like defunding the police while ignoring crime spiking under their very noses, printing money and distributing it like candy, and putting our country in harm’s way with our adversaries, the more voters will flock to Republicans. Those who fall prey to this line of thinking are ignoring what is really happening.

The Democrat party is run by radical revolutionaries. Nothing is sacrosanct to them including the Constitution. They aren’t fearful of the next election because they will own it. The posturing around the filibuster, packing the court and the already ginned up legislation to assure one-party rule are their bulwarks against sanity in voting. Their plan is clear as day; pass HR1/S1. That legislation will open the spigots for all kinds of mischievous and never yield a “free and fair” election.

In order to get this unconstitutional law through both houses, they will need to first kill the filibuster. Failing that, they will grant state hood to DC, assign two new Democrat Senators and try again. Not enough? Add Puerto Rico, even if Puerto Ricans don’t want to be a state, and make another run. Maybe they’ll pass it by invoking some new Senate rules and have it go to the Supreme Court but first, they need a friendly court. One that uses the current headlines to determine the constitutionality of such a law. Hence the effort to add 4 new justices. Mind you, all of this is taking place as I type.

So, you smug Republicans, better think twice if you think you’re in a knife fight for 2022. You’re in a shooting war right now and you had better find a way to thwart all of the above or watch your own demise and that of our country.

Marxists have taken over the Democrat party and now they are taking over the country. Current office holders who list themselves as Democrats are starting to realize they are being co-opted by a cabal of academia, media and “progressives”. (I’ve left out the spineless companies for now as I think they are just looking at next quarter’s results.) No longer afraid of the label of Socialist, this growing power-hungry mob is rolling over anyone who might get in their way. Their control of communications assures that anyone who does try to thwart their agenda, will be summarily doxed and pilloried until marginalized if not outright banned. Some Democrats are starting to wake up to this but are finding resistance may already be too late.

They told you they would make DC and Puerto Rico states in order to get a majority in the Senate. They told you they would pack the Supreme court with more justices appointed by this President. They projected the kind of transparency this administration would have when Biden’s campaign had him hiding in his basement. They told you how serious they were about the “me too” movement when they tried to derail Kavanaugh but conveniently buried the Tara Reade and others who accused Biden of sexual harassment. They never wavered from their policy position that we have open borders. They pound home the lie that ours is a racist system made up of white supremacists that are out to overturn our very government…. after they get the police to kill every black person.

Well, here we are. HR1/S1 looms larger than ever. The law that will cement one-party rule probably wouldn’t pass muster in a Senate with a filibuster. A law that if passed, wouldn’t pass Constitutional review in the current Supreme Court. So, what to do? Kill the filibuster and pack the court thus assuring reaching the goal of perpetual control of the federal government. Even some Democrats are getting a little wary of where we’re headed but can they resist knowing their job and livelihoods are subject to the same cancelling to those on the right?

We little people, American citizens, the ones who are supposed to be in control of our government, are no longer needed to maintain their positions. The system is rigged with single party districts and election laws that dissuade new entrants. If that wasn’t enough, throw your hat in the ring and the media will turn your life inside out if you’re not with them. How’s that police recruiting going? Next up, Republican candidates.

Our country is being overturned in front of our eyes and we feel helpless to stop it. That frustration can only lead to very bad things. Should HR1/S1 get any kind of hold on our last real hope; a free and fair election process, I fear the worst.

Oh, by the way, don’t think Russia and China aren’t already planning some kind of use of force to challenge us. Ukraine and Taiwan are up first and of course, we still have Iran but hey, the most critical thing to worry about is climate change says Joe. He’s not kidding!

Minnesota caught on fire again. The “spontaneous combustion” came right after a traffic stop ended with a death. The “spark” ignited large groups of people who took out their “obvious racial frustration” on businesses and other property. Excuse me if I pull a Piers Morgan and suggest the looters and vandals were not so much upset over the incident as they were grateful for another chance to gather up possessions for free. The advent of another “incident” involving a black man and a white policewoman was all the was needed to open up the spigots of free stuff there for the taking.

But then, this was just a rehearsal for what is to come at the end of the Chauvin trial. So far, the media has played ad nauseum the arguments of the prosecution and the testimony of their witnesses. Will see how much coverage the defense and its witnesses get from them. I doubt it will be even as they continue to stoke the flames that literally burn Minnesota, Oregon, Washington, Chicago and DC. After all, stories of people getting along don’t sell advertising nor fit their political ties to this administration and its progressive left.

A cynic might even suggest that Black Lives Matter put Daunte up to the task of enticing police to pull him over hoping for another confrontation. Hard to think that some people would put others up for “martyrdom” but then, this is the world we live in isn’t’ it? If no crisis exists to take advantage of, then create one. After all, the end justifies the means…. especially when you are so well intended.

North Korea blames their economic woes on US sanctions and starts again to fire off missiles. Russians are amassing troops on the Ukraine border and threatening a reinvigorated border war. Iran continues provocations in the Hormuz straits and continues to fund Hezbollah and other terrorist groups. We’re being invaded on our southern border including people from at least 41 countries and so far, 4 were on the terrorist list, and China looms large everywhere. What is Joe doing about the safety and security of our country; the one defined role of the Federal government?

How long will he wait before removing the sanctions on North Korea because, “that’s not who we are as Americans”.  He is re-opening talks with Iran and the failed nuclear pact he and Obama “negotiated”. He does this despite the lying and duplicity of the Iranians in following the first agreement. The $400,000,000,000 in cash we gave them went to pay for arms and support used to kill Americans so why not try that again. He is loath to even mention Ukraine hoping it will just go away on its own. Will he support Ukraine’s request to join NATO? Don’t hold your breath for a “policy statement”. He’s going to be tough on China; that is as soon as corporate America tells him what “tough” means. You can bet it won’t include more tariffs or sanctions.

Our adversaries are probing the weaknesses of our defenses and taking advantage of an administration hell bent on turning to “domestic terrorism” as the most dangerous situation. How long before a shooting war begins and Joe is forced to go before his adoring half of the country and convince them, he didn’t want the war, but dam it, we’re in it now and we’re going to win. Try getting our patriotic woke to sign up for anything that involves putting themselves at risk and for what? A racist society based on a moribund economic system. Good luck with that Joe.

Following the footsteps of every President over the past century, except President Trump, he’ll send troops into harm’s way as the politically expedient means to “rally the country” and divert attention from his failings domestically. Only this time, the country won’t rally. Trump proved we can exert international influence without shooting. Rather, the Trump philosophy is to make us and our allies more prosperous. As other countries figured it out, they joined in; evidence the mid-east thaw that no President before him was able to accomplish. Of course, this progress is being tossed aside as Joe pivots to the Palestinians again and eschews Israel.

International conflict is coming and it won’t be pretty. The utter ignorance of the threats to our way of life from the outside are putting us in a dangerous position. When it happens, as I predict it will, there will be no united country and the Viet Nam era will raise its ugly head once more. Our adversaries know this and it gives them encouragement to antagonize and even initiate. They’ll start with hacking our systems but eventually they’ll shoot and it won’t be Joe and his D.C. folks that get shot. It will be our kids. Aren’t you glad, he’s the one with the briefcase?
