“I’m an ordinary guy burning down the house. Hold tight. Wait ’til the party’s over. Hold tight. We’re in for nasty weather. There has got to be a way, burning down the house.” ~ Joe Biden [just kiddin’ — lyrics from ‘Burning Down the House’ by Talking Heads]
America’s house is being consumed by a raging hot fire of Marxist-Maoist, Islamofascist, anti-American Democrat Paty radicalism and Republican cowardly fecklessness and, too often, complicity. America can’t be “built back better”, when everything the Biden regime currently supports is damaging some part of Her infrastructure; and, the country sure as hell can’t be built back better or “made great again”, when a Republican Speaker, with the purse strings in hand, refuses to put America first over Ukraine and Israel, in order to secure the wide-open southern border, which further subverts traditional America and tells our enemies, both foreign and domestic, that America is ripe for a final death blow.
It’s well and fine to wish to help our Israeli allies, with whom we do have standing treaties that oblige us to send them a certain amount of military support each year, under a $38 billion memorandum that was signed in 2016. However, it’s like having a blazing, red-hot poker stuck straight up the taxpayers’ collective asses to discover that the U.S. is sending much more than required to Israel by way of a new bill put together by Speaker Mike Johnson, the Democrats and RINOs, on April 20th 2024, and $9 billion of the total $95 billion, for both Ukraine and Israel, is going to “humanitarian aid” for Gaza, which is the same as saying “more military armaments” for Hamas terrorists. And yet, these goddamned rat bastards in Congress couldn’t see fit to set aside money for actually securing our own borders or demand that our borders be sealed, secured and the alien invasion halted, before one damned red-cent is spent anywhere else.
It doesn’t matter that 112 Republicans voted against the bill. 101 Republicans voted for it, when there shouldn’t have been even one vote in favor, not until our own borders are secure, especially when Speaker Johnson and the Republicans could have used their House majority, slim as it is, as an effective tool to force the Democrat Party communists to agree to finally close the borders all the way down, other than necessary commerce, for a lengthy period of time.
Despite gushing comments from many Congressmen, that Johnson “did the right thing”, rest assured, he didn’t.
One cannot forget that only approximately ten percent of the Republican Congressional Caucus is comprised of fiscally responsible, liberty-loving, truly conservative patriotic Americans who actually do their dead level best to put America and her people’s Inalienable God-given Rights first every day.
With regular betrayals such as this from so-called Republicans and the continued destructive efforts by Democrats to “fundamentally transform America” into a full-blown authoritarian state, it isn’t any wonder that many Americans are looking for alternatives to both parties, to this system in fact. As good as our bicameral federal system has been, for the most part, our increasingly immoral populace has made possible for its subversion and manipulation, in such a manner as to create a new tyrannical government similar to the kind people feared most at the time leading up to our War for Independence, and it would appear that the concerns of the anti-federalists were well founded at the time of the Constitution’s ratification, since we now have a tyrant wannabe in Traitor Joe who acts every bit as tho’ he were King of America, without nary a fare-the-well.
And in the meantime, we have an ice-cream slurping fool assuring us in his typical arrogant fashion, on April 10th 2024, that “… we’re better situated than we were when we took office, where inflation was skyrocketing.”
I don’t know what delusion he’s under, but despite a slight dip in the inflation rate, the accumulated inflation since Biden first sat in the Oval Office is currently resting at nineteen percent. The stock markets may be doing great due to all the government spending, but the economy the average American faces daily is far from good for anyone, and still Bidenomics economists continue to blow smoke up every one’s ass and assure us all that things aren’t really more expensive, comparatively speaking, but the world we find just has a lot more zeros in the accounting ledgers.
By way of a heavy hand and very little urging from the Marxists and Maoists of his party, Biden has essentially restricted innovations and new development in every area that really matters, giving preference to his plans to destroy gas powered automobiles completely by 2035, replacing them with extremely unreliable and unwanted electric vehicles, even tho’ this has been shown to be a disastrous pursuit that is largely unsound and untenable in every way, especially given the current state of our electric grid. His attacks on fossil fuels are resulting in steep energy costs, while he now pursues oil from America’s enemies, placing us in a precarious national security situation. And adding insult to injury, he is now illegally forcing regular working men and women who didn’t have the opportunity to attend college to pay off $153 billion in student debt loans for 4.3 million students who, for the most part, were already of well means from wealthier family situations, tossing “equality under the law” out the window and promoting his supporters while taxing and hampering his opponents at every turn in the road, or the business world.
Today, our national debt is clipping right at $35 trillion and we keep spending nearly two trillion dollars more than we receive annually, raising our debt-to-GDP ratio to better than 120 percent, a level unseen since 1945. Even during our two-front war during WWII, we somehow managed to keep our debt down to fifty percent of GDP.
The same groceries that cost consumers $100 as late as 2019 now cost about $120, while gasoline has jumped from between $1.86 in March 2020 and $2.38 in December 2020 to $3.63 on average under the Biden regime, expected to rise higher with Iran threatening to shut down the Strait of Hormuz over recent conflicts with Israel. And with rent hitting an all-time outrageous high making it virtually impossible to find the most basic accommodations for less than $2000 a month, we also find the worst housing market situation since the 1990s with thirty-year mortgage rates most usually at around 7.5 percent today, or higher.
Wait for it — wait for it folks. The Biden regime is asking for only a mere paltry $7.3 trillion budget for 2025. With that much money, you could fill 550 Empire State Buildings with $10 burgers as noted in a recent cartoon from Goodwyn cartoons [which now seems to have vanished from the internet]. Along with it comes a five trillion dollar tax hike on corporations that everyone in their right mind knows without a shadow of doubt will be passed on to every poor and middle class working stiff in America.
Yes, our national debt sits at $35 trillion, and if the out-of-control spending, driven and advocated by Biden and the bulk of Congress, stays its current course, we could easily see our national debt hit $40 trillion before the next president is thrown out of office in 2029. Some experts project that our national debt will be well over $50 trillion by 2033. In the meantime, ol’ Joe Biden, ever ready and willing to take a good bribe, and his criminal cronies are robbing the nation blind at the expense of the everyday ordinary American.
Yes indeed. The Biden regime is for keeping the working man working; it has to keep him working in order to pay for all the new taxes coming down the D.C. pike straight into America’s heartland, without a bit of concern over the ultimate effects.
As noted early on by James Madison, on of America’s Founding Fathers:
“… power over the purse may, in fact, be regarded as the most complete and effectual weapon with which any constitution can arm the immediate representatives of the people, for obtaining a redress of every grievance, and for carrying into effect every just and salutary measure.”
But it doesn’t do any good when Republicans have this power and refuse to use it for fear of repercussions in the arena of public opinion, even when their cause is right and just. It’s as tho’ they’d rather take the defeat than actually win for all Americans and maybe take a few insults fro our enemies-from-within. More than this, too often it actually seems as if they too have grown to love their spending packages every bit as much as the Democrats, with everybody tossing dollars around like so much candy for their special interest buddies and very few supporters, never really benefitting the average American and the “little man” in America.
Just before Easter this year, the House passed a $1.2 trillion Omnibus spending bill that once again handed the Democrats virtually everything on their wish list.
Time and again, it sure seems as tho’ Speaker Johnson is prepared to just keep on betraying America, just as he recently did on America’s border security, surrendering to the Democrat Commies and the special interests in the D.C. Swamp as he holds out his hand to receive his silver, and in this sense, Representative Marjorie Taylor-Greene is one-hundred percent right to seek Johnson’s ouster, no matter what chaos may ensue. Betrayals must be answered with swift accountability and consequences, and despite claims it will weaken the Congressional Republicans, I believe it will actually strengthen them by gaining them a bit or respect for their refusal to tolerate business as usual and any further dismissal of the situation on the southern border.
And hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens continue to pour across our wide-open borders, both north and south, surely to add several million more to the 30 to 40 million already here, before Biden is all said and done, with so many in their ranks so damned ungrateful and belligerent. Already the new arrivals are demanding better food than what the shelters serve, while they also loudly complain, almost to the point of rioting some days, over being removed from luxury temporary lodgings in local hotels to shelters, in the worst entitled manner, just like so many pampered, coddled Americans who currently support the Democrat Party demanding free stuff at the expense of other hard-working Americans. Most of them know very little English, if any, and so, we just recently saw illegal aliens from the Congo in Africa demanding aid workers speak Congolese — even tho’ it’s a requirement that anyone seeking residency or citizenship in America must speak functional English.
Currently, several U.S. cities are handing out taxpayer dollars to illegals in the form of cash assistance, along with the free food and housing. New York City has been handing out prepaid cash cards for several months now, according to Fox News and The New York Post, with each illegal receiving as much as $10,000. Fox News recently aired a segment where the New York City Council is preparing to vote on whether or not to hand their illegal alien population an additional $350 per week to each individual illegal, at a time when their own citizens — U.S. citizens — are struggling to make ends meet each day, or thrown into homelessness themselves; and to see this happening anywhere in America is beyond the pale and an unconscionable act that demands a future accounting from those who have perpetuated this manmade crisis to the detriment of all America.
We, the normal sane Americans who love traditional America of years gone by are currently facing the worst, most unhinged far left any American has ever faced in past decades, on our streets and in Congress. They tell us Biden is just fine and an excellent orator. They tell us that global warming is going to destroy us all in a matter of a few short years to scam us out of more tax dollars. They would also have us believe it’s perfectly normal for someone to chop off their testicles for a sex change, while suggesting that it’s a housewife, who can no longer afford all the groceries her family needs, needs a psychiatrist, because she complained about Biden’s terrible economy, or the fact that the flood of illegal aliens into the country has driven up the cost of rent in her neighborhood.
All those rag-head, kaffiyeh wearing fake-ass “palestinians” currently chanting “Death to America” need to get the fuck out of America if they hate Her so much, and for any who also happen to be illegals, I have three words for the federal government and the American people: deport, Deport, DEPORT. For those who might actually hold U.S. citizenship: exile, Exile, EXILE.
No matter the issue one cares to inspect, from abortion to gun control, far too many of America’s so-called leaders are doing whatever they damned well please, no matter that their decisions may run contrary to their constituents’ expressed desire and wishes. Those charged with ensuring a strong currency and a thriving economy and a secure border, along with energy independence, are knowingly destroying it all in the name of their own short-term ambitions, and all patriotic Americans must come to terms with this and plan accordingly, because we aren’t soon going to see any sudden reversal after sixteen years of a hard-left Marxist-Maoist push by those traitorous radicals in all levels of government.
It’s worth mentioning again that our Constitution was originally intended to be implemented by a moral people, and given where we now stand as a society and all the manipulations that have turned the Constitution into more of a weapon against the people more than any defense of our rights, we are in deep, deep trouble as a nation. As the current coalition of minorities and special interests keep voting for corrupt people to perpetuate the pillaging of America’s resources and wealth for their own benefit, there will be no end in sight for this madness. We are not going to be able to vote our way out of this mess.
The only question remaining is how many more blatant betrayals of the American people and the country Herself will it take — how much more pain and suffering inflicted upon the American people will it take — before the American people rise up with rifles in hand and take to task those who have set America on the path to Her own destruction and set Her house on fire as if hit by a torrent of napalm.

I applaud your output, keep it up.
However the government is actively financing the importation of these people, spending billions of dollars to import them, set them up, fund them and in all ways facilitate their arrival. What would make you think they would ever try and solve what is clearly not a bug, but a feature?
They haven’t failed Americans, they’ve served the interests of their financiers.
There is no difference in the two political corners. One, send Ukraine and Israel money. Two, send Ukraine and Israel money and spend more money on our border. Those aren’t real choices. How about close the fucking border PERIOD. And don’t send ANY money to support genocide or the continued Ukraine fiasco that the US created there… Chip
“Exposure to true information does not matter anymore.
A person who is demoralized is unable to assess true information.The facts tell nothing to him.
Even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents, with pictures.Even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union, [or the DC J6 gulag] and show him a concentration camp,he will refuse to believe it, until he is going to receive a kick in his fat ass.
When the military boot crushes his balls, then he will understand, but not before that.That is the tragedy of the situation of demoralization.”― Yuri Bezmenov
Well, based on the comments, it would appear that Justin is about done as a contributor here. I don’t remember which but he did author one article that I thought was very good. What happened? Chip
DONE!?!? Why??? Because some people got their knickers in a knot??? Thats exactly what TBP is all about. Its called freedom of speech and opinion. Def not like other echo chambers.
What is truly funny is that someone thinks it is their responsibility to save the planet! And the hell with the people of the planet! Truly someone who does not believe in God. Whom believes that he himself is equal to God… Chip
Tikkun olam, baby.
Although they agree on many issues (even if they pretend not to), there is still a real and important difference in their professed ideologies.
Let’s see, should you pick evil that doesn’t try to hide its evil doings, or should you pick good that falls short of it’s intentions?
Admittedly, its hard to differentiate between the two ideologies in practice in the U.S. today, but the theories are still clear.
You can have a limited government tied down by laws and tasked with protecting our lives, liberty and property (and our country too) or you can have an unlimited government pledged to do lots and lots of good stuff for everybody everywhere, as long as the money keeps flowing toward them.
Closing the border PERIOD is a dream that afflicts many ignorant people, who have no clue as to what that would take, how many of our few remaining liberties we would have to give up to do it, or how much money it would cost, and not just initially, but for ever more.
That’s the sorry truth. If we allow our borders to be closed PERIOD, we will be locked in..
They are serving Israel. That is the fact. Biden took 11 million dollars from AIPAC, who do you think he works for? Israel through AIPAC and other PACS pump hundreds of millions of dollars into every US election to buy elected officials. They own 98% of them.
The video in this article is basically BS. There is no one out there looking to launch a EMP on us. Our downfall will come from the traitors in Congress, and the psycopatic murderers we call our allies. Our country is bankrupt, and the next depression will wipe out the wealth of most of the population. The next time you look at a homeless encampment, what you need to realize is you are looking at your future. That is the future Israel has planned for you.
This guy is an Israeli firster. Will be taking him off my bookmarks and not posting anymore of his stuff. He appears to be a closet zionist IMHO!
Probably a JIDF affiliate.
He is gatekeeping for the Jews, until proven otherwise.
Like, guilty until proven innocent?
That’s just what a lot of our Deep State regulations say, or at leas how they work.
And “civil” forfeiture too.
No offense, Justin, but if you’re still clinging to the notion that “10% of Congress” is still worthy?
I’d like to introduce you to a new concept called “CONTROLLED OPPOSITION”.
Get familiar with it.
None are worthy. No, not one.
Hence? The predicament.
There are true believers in there trying. Maybe 5%. Sheer madness reigns everywhere you turn.
It is not madness, it is corruption. Google AIPAC contributions to US politicians and educate yourself. The US Government is just a satellite of Tel Aviv.
Israel is a satellite of the central banking cartel. They created it to have the tools of state.
I think he’s right, and in most cases it’s far more than 10%, but it’s never a majority, and overall, they are there to serve themselves. 90% of them anyway.
Terminal madness.
That’s exactly what controlled opposition WANTS you to believe.
It looks obvious to me that the majority of Congress is not there to serve the people, or the law, or the Constitution, but only for the power, and the wealth it can bring them.
You missed the #1 source behind ” burning down the house” , Justin. Happy Red Heifer , Two Gospel, Third Temple, Rapturetard Day.
“But the USA is facing an even more serious crisis of legitimacy, as at least the EU’s illegitimate elite is, for the most part, actually made up of Europeans. The illegitimate elite presently in power in the United States is neither American nor culturally Christian; it isn’t even civilized. Which is why it rules so poorly and so recklessly; what works in the interests of a small and subversive tribal group is entirely unsuited for successfully guiding a large nation, let alone an entire civilization.
The disaster that has been David Tepper’s ownership of the Carolina Panthers is more than a little illustrative in this regard. What works beautifully when the deck is stacked in your favor simply will not work when you’re forced to compete on an equal playing field, and the experience and habits you developed in the easier situation actually tend to work against you once you no longer possess any structural advantages.
The great Israeli general Moshe Dayan once said that the secret of the IDF’s stunning historic military success was that it fought Arabs. If there is one lesson of the post-WWII period, it is that the secret of the stunning Jewish political and economic success in the USA is that they were competing with Anglo-Saxon Protestants. And that is quite clearly not adequate preparation for competing with the Chinese, the Russians, and the Persians on the global stage.
The political entities of the USA and the EU are both going to collapse, almost certainly within the next ten years, because no political structure, and no society, can survive an incompetent and illegitimate elite.”
The entire Federal Government is corrupt, every part. It is an illegitimate regime, it is a criminal enterprise and it controls EVERY aspect of our live. Calls to ‘revolution’ and to ‘do something’ are a waste of time and a sop. There is no leader to follow, there is no guiding philosophy or prinicple that all disenfranchised Americans can get behind, not all (most) people understand what is being done to them and the country at large and the congitive dissonance is profound. The psyops runs deep, the media is the propaganda arm and the country itself is a giant carcass being stripped clean of the last remnants of wealth, resources and prosperity.
America, the nation, once stood as a bulwark against Globalism/communism but once the Christians and White People/men were marginalized and demonized, treated as pariahs and whipping boys while the mentally ill homosexuals, transvestites, ‘minorities’ of all colors along with the inept, incompetent and DEI hires were given postions of authority and power. All of this is by design. Look to Rome for the parallels, down to the invaders being let in to displace and replace the citizens.
There is no hero coming to save the day and writing editorials listing and rehashing all the ills and evils perpetrated by this regime and government.is a waste of time..
You are on your own, prepare accordingly. .
I could suggest some worthy leaders, and they are people who are connected with people who have good, and probably workable, ideas about how to restore our freedom and save our country.
As you can tell by how the majority of Congress treats the Freedom Caucus, they are the most hated and feared by the politicians and bureaucrats
I think that makes them the obvious choice, but I think Jo Jorgenson would be the best…
I was thinking that Mygirl might want me to name a few more… Maybe it didn’t see my post. (Is “it” OK by you? I don’t really now what gender to use in addressing you… Masculine, Feminine or Neutral? So I went with Neutral).
It sounds to me like it is lamenting that their is no leader, and then not wanting to look for one.
There are still pockets of normality, MG. All this “the sky is falling”, “there is no hope”, “we are doomed” shit is crap.
Looking at Rome, civilization rose again after the fall.
There are still plenty of hard men in America who will prevent total collapse. Fragmentation WILL take effect, but life still continues.
Hard times make hard men and most of the guys I talk to and associate with are ready for the first shot to be fired. We will not go quietly into this dark night.
Quit paying taxes to this illegitimate government.

How? My helicopter gunship in in the shop for repairs and my M-1 Abrams is out of fuel.
“Operate” without a drivers license, SS card, home address, auto liability insurance, it’s easy!
Sure, and work for cash only so you don’t have S.S. “contributions” deducted from your pay. Where do you plan to live? What sort of lifestyle are you planning? Where will you keep your money, provided you actually earn some?
Keep your money in your pocket. If you have too big a wad, hide it somewhere safe. A bank is NOT safe. They can keep your cash after you deposit it.
If you have a high-flying lifestyle that you want to continue, the gray life isn’t for you. Tone it down a bit, Kardashian.
Where are you planning on living? Did I ask that already?
I don’t want specifics, something like “on the street” or “in a secret hidden cave” or “deep in some National forest”. would be fine.
I’ve got it! In your Mother’s basement!
The IRS code is fraudulent. Most workers don’t owe taxes. I clawed back several thousand dollars in tax refunds from information I learned from « Cracking the « Code » by Peter Hendrickson. It’s free to read on his website losthorizons dot com.
I identify as tax-exempt
How long have you been doing that? I assume you filed a W-4 to that effect, and your employer stopped taking taxes (except for S.S. “contributions”) out of your paycheck?
It won’t work out well.
Wait, I forgot, you are off the grid entirely as far as the government can tell, which means you have no need at all to “identify” as tax exempt.
Why bother?
I bet you never buy anything that’s subject to State sales taxes either? Bully for you!
Live like a Mexican. They have a license, homes, cars. What they don’t have is a traceable bank account. Keep it in cash. If you have a bank account with unaccounted for income, they will find that. Cash is still untraceable… for now.
It took over a thousand years to recover to the level of the late Roman Empire. Historians call that recovery “The Renaissance”.
Beautiful things were created in that era, were they not?
More important than things, the ideas that arose were incredibly important.
There are always ‘pockets’ of normalcy, life went on in prewar Germany and Soviet Russia, and many weren’t deeply affected by the Great Depression. There are always exceptions but when you have a totalitarian government as we currently suffer with, along with a two tiered justice system coupled with a deeply fragmented country with all the power centers controlled by the leftists with their very own Stasi enforcers you have little chance of going against or rising up in revolt. The FBI exists as muscle for the democrats, most if not all three letter agencies are in thrall to the democrats and the Justice department exists primarily to persecute any and all not with the party program. TPTB have worked long and hard to get the country to this point and they aren’t stupid, just evil. Obama was the heir apparent but the ‘progressive’ state of things has been in progress since before FDR.
Those ‘hard men’ are too fragmented and diverse geographically, the best you can hope for is Balkanization. All the current executive orders and legislation are geared to destroying the economy, marginalizing White people, Christians and the middle class in general. There is no head, there is no plan, there are no cohesive groups and if any group stands out it is destroyed. Look no further than the razor wire round the Capitol, the persecution of the Jan 6 folk and the creation of a class of untouchable minority criminals. The shithole cities denizens run away to red states, turning those into shitholes and inflation is such that the challenges of keeping a roof over one’s head generally precludes actions of the revolutionary kind.
My best advise under these circumstances is to go as Galt as is possible.
Bloody Sunday 1905 (alphahistory.com)
What’s your point Girly?
At one time, I believed in bottom up change, meaning no “leadership” was required, especially in a good cause. I was wrong, most people require leadership and history seems to back it up. Does that mean we do nothing in the absence of leadership? No, for the very act of resistance will create those future leaders. The leaders that will fight to restore the Republic won’t be on MSM or even many so-called conservative websites. One way you’ll recognize them is that they’re willing to fight and willing to make personal sacrifices. Sometimes the essence of a good warrior is not a willingness to kill, but a willingness to accept one’s own death in pursuit of a just cause. In the meantime, the calvary is in the mirror. As Mygirl says “prepare accordingly”.
This sounds very lame to me, and confused…
Perhaps I took a bit too much arthritis medicine

Here’s where I stopped reading: “It’s well and fine to wish to help our Israeli allies.” I don’t want any fucking allies.
Yes, CC … I can relate to Your sentiment to a great degree. In an ideal world, it would be the best path for all countries to simply mind their own business and live and let live, but just like individuals, no one can seem to live without wanting to attack someone else or take something that isn’t rightfully theirs.
I only intended “well & fine” in the context of the sentence that explains we are obligated by several treaties with Israel. Now of course, a treaty is only as good as the parties involved, as Stalin soon found out, and Biden could abandon Israel completely, if he so desired, but not without serious global ramifications and eventual consequences to the U.S..
We might stand alone for a bit of time and manage to survive as a nation, but understand we have hostile foreign nations aligning and allied against us at the moment who have the worst intentions for our country and our people, so we are living in a time when we should be careful about so casually casting off any ally who might be of some or any assistance in whatever wars are to follow — for you and everyone here full well knows that war is a permanent fixture of the world today.
Thanks CC.
I understand but don’t agree. It was when the globalists of that day invented our valuable ‘allies’ that got us in WW1. I’m sure you remember ‘To Make the World Safe for Democracy’. And how did that work out? The bloodiest century in human history. I enjoy being called an ‘isolationist’. It beats a warmonger any day.
Yes, WWI was totally avoidable, but Wilson was the definition of a globalist, having helped form the League of Nations. WWII was fairly inevitable, for a litany of reasons that prompted Japan to attack Pearl Harbor — mainly the same things the world is fighting over today, oil, steel and resources in general.
Whether anyone wants to admit it, China is ramping up and preparing to supplant the U.S. as the world’s foremost global power, both monetarily and militarily. They know that they too have to eventually unwind themselves from this symbiotic economic situation that currently exists between our two nations. Whether they actually finally declare war or strike us without warning is a toss up and anyone’s guess, but they aren’t afraid of us and they aren’t being deterred by us, not much and not anywhere in the globe, especially in Africa.
Some “experts” suggest China doesn’t want war any more than we do, but there are many others who lay out the case for why war between us may be inevitable and unavoidable, all of it centered on resources, especially rare earth minerals. Geopolitics and world demographics are all driving the current unrest seen across the globe.
I’m a bit of an isolationist myself, but I also understand today’s modern technology actually works against isolationism, and globalism has always existed so far as trade is concerned, but it was usually based on free association. I know — when the advanced Brits entered India for the tea it wasn’t exactly free association, same with the West and China.
The difference today is this model of “globalism” is essentially a construct of the United Nations and its “conventions”, agreements, agendas and strictures that favors the Marxists, Maoists and tyrants of the world, in a unified push towards a world government controlled by collectivists, such as seen in the ranks of the Davos group and the World Economic Forum.
Free trade and free associations are great, but a nation cannot actually implement true free trade between such disparate nations and different systems such as exist between the U.S. and China. However, over the decades since Nixon, it seems as tho’ our leaders have opted to become more like China in order to make things more balanced, even as China steals our wealth and our technology through the existing unfair trade practices it exerts.
The worse thing the U.S. and previous administrations ever did was enter this unholy trade alliance, in order to receive cheap Chinese goods that aren’t worth a damn, as it simultaneously started outsourcing its labor and killed off our manufacturing base. We were once the top producers and exporters of top quality goods in the world, especially regarding U.S. steel. But not so much today.
It’s long been past time to untangle ourselves from the Chinese web and return to the times of our greater independence and self-sufficiency through resources collected here in America or by way of more honest trade partners — those like-minded in promoting freedom and peace across the world — in order to produce top quality food and goods for Americans by Americans.
I know. Probably ain’t gonna happen. Not for a long, long time and not in whatever time I have left on this earth; but a man’s gotta have his dreams.
In the end, I’d take a good few decades of peace over war any day of the week, but it’s pretty much as former President Reagan oft noted: “Peace comes through strength” and our country is the weakest it’s ever been, probably since the days just prior to WWI.
Wilson was not globalist . He was a compromised tool of Deep Shekels, who did exactly as he was told. Do you even do reality, bruh?
Doesn’t sound like you do, Flash, with all Your Cracked Revisionist “history”. His League of Nations was the precursor for the United Nations which is the model for a collectivist, “globalized” world under one government. There’s an abundance of other evidence that shows your assertion to be false, no matter the “good intentions” many try to subscribe to his actions concerning WWI and Russia and its aftermath.
Sounds like you are reading some far-fetched fiction novels.
Which cracked ” revisionist history”, do you specifically refer, shabbos?
This ?
The two principal drafters and architects of the covenant of the League of Nations[38] were the British politician Lord Robert Cecil and the South African statesman Jan Smuts. Smuts’s proposals included the creation of a council of the great powers as permanent members and a non-permanent selection of the minor states. He also proposed the creation of a mandate system for captured colonies of the Central Powers during the war. Cecil focused on the administrative side and proposed annual council meetings and quadrennial meetings for the Assembly of all members. He also argued for a large and permanent secretariat to carry out the League’s administrative duties.[36][39][40]
House played a major role in shaping wartime diplomacy. He supported as well Thomas Garrigue Masaryk’s Czechoslovak legions, especially in Russia.[19] Wilson had House assemble “The Inquiry”, a team of academic experts to devise efficient postwar solutions to all the world’s problems. In September 1918, Wilson gave House the responsibility for preparing a constitution for a League of Nations. In October 1918, when Germany petitioned for peace based on the Fourteen Points, Wilson charged House with working out details of an armistice with the Allies.
WW1 was a conspiracy by the US and UK, and was engineered by Cecil Rhodes, who was the father of the Boar Wars. The agenda was to take out both Russia with the Revolution and Germany through war and reoperations. The US and UK feared they could not compete with Russia and Germany, and they were a threat to their worldwide imperialist domination. 100 yrs. later, and nothing has changed. We are heading down the exact same road, except now it is Russia and China, and this time we will not win.
Boer. For Christ’s sake.

The comment format is a little buggy, I’d say.
The League of Nations was a failure because the United States was still too strong and independent. Since then the U.S. has been weakened to a point that it is no longer a threat to the NWO.
“WWII was fairly inevitable, for a litany of reasons that prompted Japan to attack Pearl Harbor…”
Read “Day of Deceit”. We goaded Japan into the attack. Just like we did/are doing with Russia in Ukraine… Chip
I’m familiar with those explanations. It’s actually a bit more complicated, but the fact remains that Japan had already pretty well made up its mind to attack us. And we were still in negotiations with them when they did.
Maybe Roosevelt should have acted to preempt the attack on Pearl Harbor, since many accounts suggest he had knowledge the attack was imminent. But to date, there isn’t any definitive, substantiated, factual evidence that he did know.
However it came about, Japan was more at fault than the U.S., because it wanted to force trade concessions that simply were not in America’s best interest.
Same with Russia. We “goaded” nothing. Putin made a conscious decision to invade Ukraine in 2014 and then again recently, because he doesn’t believe in self-determination or free will and freedom of association; he was initially angered when Ukraine ousted his puppet and sought to enter a lucrative economic deal with the EU over one he had proposed to them.
Keep in mind that Ukraine is a sovereign nation and has been free and independent of Russia since 1991. Even the president of Russia Boris Yeltsin agreed to ensure Ukraine’s sovereignty and border security at the time, along with the Western powers.
The West and America helped Russia in the aftermath of its collapse, and so, at best, Putin’s assertion that Ukraine’s closer ties to the West somehow presented a security threat to Russia is a base, disingenuous lie. He’s simply never gotten over the split up of the old USSR and the Old Russian Empire.
If Putin really wasn’t interested in reconstituting the Old Empire, he never would have invaded Georgia in 2008. Let him take Ukraine and just watch; it really won’t end there, as he’ll take it as a sign of incredible weakness and lack of will in the West.
NO, you are wrong! FDR WANTED them to attack so he could convince the public to join the war… Chip
Why else would he (FDR) wage an unconstitutional, undeclared war against the German Navy in the Atlantic? He was itching to get in that war. The sinking of the U.S.S Reuben James off Iceland October 31, 1941 is the tragic reality of placing a ship & crew in an environment they had no business being in, engaged in a activity they had no business being a part of.
As long as the U.S. was neutral, our ships had the freedom of the seas, and our navy was supposed to protect them.
American businesses were making money supplying England and France with things they needed.
That those things included war material made us less than neutral.
Probably a good choice would have been to stay completely neutral, at least as far as selling one side arms went.
Who knows, without our help to the Soviets, perhaps Hitlers brand of National Socialism would have triumphed, but, from the look of Europe today, it wouldn’t have made any difference.
South American nations seemed to like National Socialism too.
Just remember, Germany declared war on the U.S. immediately after the Japanese did.
We were “neutral” in name only; the U.S. Navy was escorting British merchant shipping to a demarcation line out in the Atlantic where the Royal Navy would take over. The U.S. Navy had “sink-on-sight” orders against German U-boats. That was illegal. Moreover the depth charges in the stern racks were set on the USS Reuben James; as she was sinking & those charges reached the pre-set depth level, they started cooking off killing a lot of the survivors in the water. Why were depth charges pre-set if she wasn’t actively engaged in undeclared hostilities?
Only reason AH declared war on the U.S. was he was attempting to get the Japanese to declare war on the Soviet Union. The Wehrmacht was stretched to the near breaking point outside Moscow in Dec ‘41 with a Soviet counterattack that included 20 divisions of Siberians that had previously been stationed in the far east guarding against a possible Japanese attack. Stalin was worried about Japan joining in Operation Barbarossa.
Historians of the period, however, generally reject its thesis, pointing to several key errors and reliance on doubtful sources.
Reviewers were generally dismissive of Stinnett’s claims, as many of his claims appear to be baseless. An article in Salon quotes CIA historian Donald Steury:
Stinnett’s starting point is a memorandum written by Lieutenant Commander Arthur H. McCollum in October 1940, which was obtained through the Freedom of Information Act. McCollum, then head of the Far East desk of the Office of Naval Intelligence, discussed the strategic situation in the Pacific and ended with a list of eight actions directed at the Japanese threat. Stinnett characterizes the actions as “provocations” and states his belief in McCollum’s point F (“Keep the main strength of the U.S. fleet now in the Pacific in the vicinity of the Hawaiian Islands”) was intended to lure the Japanese into attacking it. Stinnett asserts that the overall intent was to provoke an act of war that would allow Roosevelt to enter into active conflict with Germany in support of the United Kingdom.
Critical points in Stinnett’s argument were disputed by military historians. His characterization of the McCollum memorandum was not accepted by Conrad Crane, Chief of Historical Services and Support at the United States Army Heritage and Education Center, who wrote:
“A close reading shows that its recommendations were supposed to deter and contain Japan, while better preparing the United States for a future conflict in the Pacific. There is an offhand remark that an overt Japanese act of war would make it easier to garner public support for actions against Japan, but the document’s intent was not
to ensure that event happened.”
This means that Stinnett attributes to McCollum a position McCollum expressly refuted. Furthermore, McCollum’s own sworn testimony also refutes it.
Stinnett argues that the attacking fleet was detected by radio and intelligence intercepts, but the information was deliberately withheld from Admiral Husband E. Kimmel, the commander of the Pacific Fleet at that time.
Walter Short and Kimmel were ordered to remain in a defensive posture with respect to the Japanese. Stinnett claims that intelligence intercepts were deliberately withheld from them to prevent them from mounting an adequate defense. He also claims that radio traffic was intercepted from the fleet as it approached Hawaii, allowing it to be tracked, but again, the information was withheld so that the defenders would be unprepared. All, says Stinnett, was directed from the White House itself with Roosevelt’s knowledge and at his behest.
Philip Zelikow, writing in Foreign Affairs, objected to Stinnett’s claim that the Japanese naval code was being read at the time (the JN-25 code was changed shortly before the attack and was not decrypted again until May 1942), an objection also raised by Crane. A review posted on the U.S. Naval Cryptologic Veterans Association website addresses the intelligence issues in greater detail and disputes claims that the fleet was detected through direction finding; the author also criticizes Stinnett’s use of testimony from Robert Ogg, originally identified as “Seaman Z” by John Toland in his 1986 book. Indeed, Ogg expressly denies saying what Toland quotes him as saying. In their annotations on the 1995 Pentagon study of the attack, Frederic Borch and Daniel Martinez, chief historian at the USS Arizona Memorial, also dispute these claims and call his claims “totally false”.
Stinnett’s claims of “intercepts” are contradicted by Japanese testimony, which unequivocally state there were none, and even transmitter keys were removed from radios of ships in the task force. (The claim of a need for “low-power radio” made by Stinnett ignores standard fleet practice under radio silence, use of flag or blinker.) Moreover, his “intercepts” do not amount to direction finding bearings, contrary to his claims, while his document allegedly showing the plot of these nonexistent bearings contains nothing of the kind.
“If there was this vast and humongous conspiracy”, its members had to number in the hundreds. Among them would have to be Lt. Kermit Tyler who, on the morning of 7 December, was contacted about a radar contact on an inbound flight, and told the operators to forget about it. One would also have to include the Navy duty officer, who was asleep when the destroyer USS Ward first tried to report a minisub contact,] thereby losing over three hours’ warning. It would also include the officer who ordered USAAC fighters be parked in close proximity to avoid sabotage. Also included would be the senior antiaircraft officers, who ordered ammunition to be locked up far from the guns.
Furthermore, Stinnett makes numerous and contradictory claims of the number of messages originated by the Kido Butai, attributing to it messages from shore stations, Yamamoto’s flagship (which was not accompanying the task force), deception measures, and traffic from before the task force even sailed. Moreover, he finds “not a single one” originating from the Kido Butai after it sortied 26 November.
David Kahn commented on the book, stating that it had “basic errors of fact” and “tendentious interpretations” and was “an extraordinarily sloppy book”. Examples include Stinett commenting on Japanese code wheels which did not exist, and misreading a date that said 15-5-41 as December 5, 1941. Stinnett also mistakenly believed that provoking Japan into an act of war against another nation would trigger the mutual assistance provision of the Axis Tripartite Pact.
Historian Gordon Prange, in an earlier work, noted that a war between the U.S. and Japan was contrary to Roosevelt’s desire to aid Britain in her fight against Germany, and Prime Minister Churchill’s desire to avoid “another war”. Prange, the foremost authority on the Pearl Harbor attack, characterizes the conspiracy theory as “an absurdity.” British historian John Keegan writes that Stinnett’s charges of conspiracy “defy logic”, and fail to show how Roosevelt could have succeeded in bringing US Army Chief George Marshall and US Navy Chief Harold Stark into the conspiracy. Another British historian, Ronald Lewin, calls Stinnett’s theory “moonshine.” Military intelligence historian Roberta Wohlstetter wrote that Stinnett conflated FDR’s desire for an incident which might serve as a catalyst for war against Germany, with FDR’s supposed foreknowledge of such an incident provoking war with Japan. Presidential historian Joseph E. Persico found that FDR drafted an appeal to peace to the Emperor of Japan the night before the Pearl Harbor attack, which historian Hervie Haughler said could not be the action of someone who wished for war with Japan.
READ THE FUCKING BOOK! It is ALL substantiated!!! Chip

Are you dismissing the Maidan “Dignity Revolution” and the US State Dept., 3-letter involvement and abrogation of the Minsk Agreement, or do you perhaps see a different angle some of us are missing?
The Minsk Agreement was essentially dead in the water since Putin never fully honored it from the start. You can’t send in Spetsnaz to influence / intimidate the Russian-speaking Ukrainians and claim the majority wanted to split from Ukraine, when that wasn’t exactly the case. Free and fair elections didn’t exactly occur.
I do believe every people have the right to self-determination, and I believe secession is the right of any people. But, just as Lincoln was determined to hold the States together by force, so too were Ukraine’s leaders, plus, they saw Putin’s interference in the area as a blatant attempt to annex part of Ukraine for Russia once again.
Many in the disputed areas didn’t want to be under Russian control again, given what they remember from the times in the USSR.
As far as agreements go, don’t speak to me of agreements, when Putin’s first move was to violate the 1994 Budapest Memorandum in which Russia agreed to help France and the U.S. ensure Ukraine’s border security and in exchange Ukraine would relinquish its nuclear weapons. Putin invaded and occupied Crimea in 2014, out of anger at having his economic overtures rebuffed and his puppet ousted.
Some of Y’All have a very selective memory of the events.
Like the lawyer in “Chicago” I see you dancing faster and faster. Obviously, when Obama has just overthrown Ukraine you would necessarily move to protect your only warm water port. A port which had been Russian for centuries and had only been part of UkraineSSR since Ukrainian Khrushchev basically did no more than change the sign in 1962 as a sop to the Ukrainians. Changing the sign on the gate meant nothing since they were all part of the USSR at that time. A meaningless gesture at the time which Putin was required to act upon in the present.
Frankly I am dismayed and disappointed to see you trying to spin this as if we were a bunch of uneducated dorks.
“A port which had been Russian for centuries and had only been part of UkraineSSR since Ukrainian Khrushchev basically did no more than change the sign in 1962 as a sop to the Ukrainians”
The Ukrainians are a separate people, and Ukraine has been their nation since the 9th Century, maybe longer…
For s little while, after the Tsar took it, and the Soviet Union kept it, it was indeed a Russian port.
Your query posits a moot point, in that it doesn’t whose side one wishes to take on the Ukraine War in this context, because I plainly state that neither Ukraine or Israel should be receiving billions of U.S. tax dollars while our borders remain intentionally unsecured and wide open.
Here is my take on the Ukraine situation written around the time it was all unfolding, if You’re interested enough to want to sift through it:
Maidan Hasn’t Won Yet
By Justice O. Smith
Sent: 2/28/2014 12:20 PM
The Ukrainian Parliament heard the Bell of Freedom ringing on February 22, 2014, and they ousted President Viktor Yanukovych, their corrupt leader. Since the collapse of the former U.S.S.R, many corrupt men and women have sought to govern Ukraine, in order to empty her treasury; historically, Ukraine has been deliberately exploited geopolitically by many nations over the past five centuries, such as Poland, Germany and Russia, and its language and culture suppressed by all, except for the Hapsburg Monarchy. And, now that Ukraine’s Parliament has issued an arrest warrant for Yanukovych and answered their people’s call for freedom, the vast majority want Ukraine’s course to be uncorrupted and set by the Ukrainian people, without outside interference from the U.S., the European Union and Russia.
President Yanukovych’s arbitrary decision to nullify an economic agreement with the European Union (EU), with few strings attached, and accept a $15 billion aid package from Russian President Vladimir Putin was viewed with horror and revulsion. The specter of life under Russian influence and control surfaced, and this is a life that the majority of Ukrainians will never willingly accept again – something they will fight to the death before being forced once more down the road to serfdom.
From the first day of acquiring most of Ukraine from Poland, under the Treaty of Andrusovo (1667), Russian Tsars sought to destroy any sense of national identity in the Ukrainian people. In 1876 Alexander II actually banned books from being published in Ukrainian and speaking Ukrainian in theater plays.
Taras Shevchenko, Ukraine’s first major poet (1814-1861), synthesized urban and rural linguistic usages with Church Slavonic to articulate a full range of ideas and feelings. Shevchenko railed against the autocratic Russian state in the name of “this land of ours which is not ours”. His nationalist verses reassured literate Ukrainians that they were at least a potential nation.
The Ukrainian people have never forgotten the millions of peasants who were murdered during the 1919 de-Cossackization of the Don region, they have never forgotten the 10 million Ukrainians who were starved to death by Stalin’s regime between 1932 and 1934, and they remember the forced exiles to Siberia during 1944-45. Their resentment and hostility towards Russia and communism/authoritarianism has remained into the present, and, in large part, this explains the anger Ukrainians felt towards the corrupt Viktor Yanukovych and his cozy arrangement with the former director of the KGB, Vladimir Putin.
Ulrich Speck of Carnegie Europe (New York Times) recently pointed at Hungary, Slovakia, Poland and Romania as EU success stories, and declared that “the protest movement… centered in Kiev’s Independence Square, has won,” although many others declare that Ukraine will not find real freedom within a European Union economic stricture and the immigration burdens that accompany the EU’s open borders policy; however, the initial EU deal was simply an offer of economic aid, a loose association and a free trade agreement, and EU membership was not offered. But no matter how one views the EU, the Ukrainian people are obviously in desperate need of assistance, and perhaps an effective joint economic aid plan will soon be managed by the U.S., the EU and the International Monetary Fund, with mutually beneficial terms included.
Of course, the big pink Russian Bear’s reaction remains to be seen, as Russian military “maneuvers” are now occurring along Crimea’s border. Right or wrong, Ukraine, “Little Russia”, has been seen as critical to Russia’s national security, because it was the breadbasket of the old Soviet Union and it was also used as an invasion route by numerous past enemies, including Napoleon and the Nazis. Russian technological advances in missile delivery and other armaments negates this as a serious concern. But, no one should be overly hopeful that Putin will follow Boris Yeltsin’s declaration that “The Russian state…will never be an empire…It will be an equal among equals.”
At Putin’s urging, Yanukovych intensified the use of force against the Maidan protesters, resulting in 82 people dead. Since then, Putin has questioned the legitimacy of the recent actions by the Ukrainian Parliament. And, with a heavy imprint in the Crimea (eastern Ukraine) from decades of “russification” programs, Putin’s pure naked desire, thinly veiled in a proposed Eurasian Union, to reconstruct the old Soviet Union may result in an Ossetia-style Russian intervention, despite Obama’s warnings and Putin’s assurances to the contrary; or, at the very least, this means several more months of civil strife and turmoil, since pro-Russian protesters were flying Red Communist flags in Donetsk on February 23rd, and armed men occupied all the government buildings in Simferopol (Crimea) on February 27, 2014 (Reuters).
On Sunday, February 23, Yanukovych’s Party of Regions abandoned him and accused him of facilitating the deaths of the protesters and betraying his country. This same day, Yanukovych appointee and military chief of staff, Yuriy Ilvin said, “As an officer I see no other way than to serve the Ukrainian people honestly and assure that I have not and won’t give criminal orders.”
To the heart of the matter, Serhiy Sobalev, a member of Parliament from the Balkivshchyna Party, stated: “We will come out of Maidan either free or as slaves. But we don’t want to be slaves.”
After Leonid Slutsky, chairman of the Russian parliamentary committee that deals with former satellite states, exclaimed, “They are trying in every possible way to tear Ukraine away from Russia” (Interfax), the world should have asked, “So?” – Russia’s claim to the Ukraine has always been illegitimate, and the Ukrainians have never wanted to be integrated into Muscovy. Doesn’t Ukraine have a natural right to self-determination and their own independent state? History says “Yes.”
Interim Ukrainian President Oleksandr Turchynov, Petro Poroshenko – opposition member of Ukraine’s Parliament, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. President Barack Obama all agree that Ukraine’s territorial integrity must be preserved. Each has a different understanding of this term “territorial integrity.” Just as in the 1950s, today some Ukrainians in the Orthodox east and south still long for the Russian state, while in the west, with its Hapsburg and Polish traditions and its strong Uniate Church, Ukrainian nationhood is understood as inherently anti-Russian.
Recently, Yulia Tymoshenko, former Ukrainian Prime Minister, announced she would run for the presidency, even though much of her former appeal has been tarnished by being seen as part of a corrupt power structure. In many respects, Tymoshenko was much closer to Putin than Yanukovych could ever have hoped to be. But she did herself and her country proud, when she tearfully told a crowd on February 22, “After what you did, Ukraine is yours.”
In the years leading up to 1917, Ukraine was torn through national and social upheaval and embroiled in chaotic violence, much like Ukraine after the establishment of the Commonwealth of Independent States and the Trans-Dniester Republic in 1991, much like present day Ukraine. Professional people, rural cooperatives and officers from the imperial army convened a Ukrainian Military Congress, which proclaimed the Ukrainian People’s Republic in November 1917, and it was immediately challenged by a Soviet government in Kharkov and supported by many of the workers and peasants in eastern Ukraine. But, the memory of their national independence from 1917 to 1921, no matter how brief, precarious and embattled, generates a powerful longing for fulfillment in the modern day Ukraine.
I would like to leave you with two of the most poignant thoughts I received from two young activists, as I communicated with them on the 23rd and 24th of February:
4:45 pm Sunday 23rd/ Galyna Kolodkevych, Professor of Ukrainian literature in Kiev, asked, “What is the way forward now?” She continued, “Maidan has become (the) opposition now and (the) new authority has to listen to the people of Maidan, but not to the West or Russia. Our politicians receive the power but then forget us…We demand full lustration of official power, without previous communists, party of regions, (and) (Yulia) Tymoshenko. So, Maidan hasn’t won yet. People will stand until the murderers are punished.”
4:37 am Monday 24th/ Yevgeniya Goncharuk cried out, “There is a pain in my heart. Ukraine (is) washed with tears. Many different and difficult thoughts are in my head. Fear to forget. Fear to allow politicians to forget what happened. There is no feeling something great was achieved. I do not see a clear plan for how to remove the old politicians, judges and policemen. But I know that people have to learn by new, normal rules – moral law. The main thing is to remember all the mistakes and lies of every person, who worked in the government. The criminals have to sit in jail. How long will they avoid punishment? …There is hope….Ukrainians are great, they are beautiful people. They surprised themselves. Suddenly they show that they are brave, desperate and they deserve a better life.”
No, Maidan hasn’t won yet, but the Ukrainian people have always been brave, and they do deserve a better life. They have the right to choose and to create for themselves a more perfect union, with one’s liberties and human dignity guaranteed, where equality under a moral law reigns and everyone lives and dies free; today I, all of us, and the world share the chains of the Ukrainian people, since the destruction of just a single person’s freedom creates a ripple effect throughout civil society: So, without undue influence, the Free World must enable, through every available means, the destiny of the Ukrainian people to manifest itself through the people’s own free will, uncorrupted by immoral men.
I was asking if you had an angle we had not considered. You apparently do not, but in fairness you must understand we monkeys have flung way more shit than usual on this subject and all of your points have been discussed previously, heatedly in many instances.
Outrage over the border is a given.
Yes … but you and others on this forum are acting like I supported funding these wars and making me the issue, simply because I noted the U.S. is bound by treaty to a certain amount of support for Israel — after which, I immediately stated WE SHOULD NOT BE FUNDING ANY FOREIGN NATION OR WAR WHEN OUR OWN BORDERS ARE SITTING WIDE OPEN.
You and others love to go off topic and divert and deflect from what was actually said and discussed.
It doesn’t matter what happened in 2014, between Ukraine and Russia. WHAT MATTERS IS GETTING THIS BIDEN REGIME TO SEAL & SECURE THE GODDAMNED BORDERS & STOP LETTING MILLIONS OF GODDAMNED ANTI-AMERICAN PIECES OF SHIT INTO THE COUNTRY!!!
One more for You, just in case. Thank You for Your indulgence:
Liberate Ukraine
By Justin O. Smith
Sent: 3/8/2014 10:38 PM
The protesters in Independence Square have suffered a long train of abuses and usurpations from a succession of presumably democratically elected governments that consistently have sunk into the depths of corruption and arbitrary, illegal and despotic actions, forcing the people to oppose them and unify for the salvation of Ukraine. They did not initially ask for President Viktor Yanukovych’s removal, only that he honor the European Union – Ukraine Association Agreement. But, several hundred wounded and over eighty dead, at Yanukovych’s orders and Putin’s direction changed everything and created a call for new Guards, which is any freedom-loving people’s right.
The ouster of Yanukovych from office by the Ukrainian Parliament was no more a coup than was U.S. President Richard Nixon’s resignation over Watergate. Yanukovych was abandoned by his own Regions Party and accused of embezzling $40 billion over three years and betraying Ukraine. Assertions by Russian media and Putin that this was a “fascist coup” are outright Stalinist propaganda tactics, and pundits, such as Phil Valentine (Cumulus Radio), repeatedly calling this a “coup” are ignorant of the East-West dynamics, the ongoing trade war between the EU and Russia, and parliamentary procedures and “votes of no confidence.”
For months the protesters of Maidan held Berkut anti-riot police at bay, as they were injured and killed. They treated their wounded, prayed over their dead, and they fought for their right to form a new state governed, hopefully, by moral leaders, free from corruption. And now, they have been stunned by a new sense of betrayal, a new group of oligarchs, driving Mercedes and BMWs, form the interim government in the name of Ukraine’s people.
Betrayals came one after another, once Yanukovych appeared in Russia. Putin violated several international treaties by invading Crimea, as the European Union ringed their collective hands over Putin’s threats to raise gas prices from Gazprom, and Obama frantically floundered around the U.S.-Russian “reset button”, giving empty lip-service to sanctions no one will honor; don’t look for Russia’s removal from the G-8 either, since Chancellor Angela Merkel is pursuing angles for Germany during this internationally clustered imbroglio.
Ukrainians have long sought closer ties with the EU and the U.S. and their markedly freer cultures and political systems, not Putin and Russia. Five-hundred thousand dollars have gone towards this goal annually, since 2011, through the U.S. Agency for International Development [USAID], because many influential Ukrainians, such as Vitali Klitshko – member of Ukraine Parliament, feared Yanukovych’s growing subservience to Putin; Putin’s $15 billion bribe was intended to coax Ukraine into his Eurasian Union, and, in appealing to Yanukovych’s corrupt nature, it effectively sabotaged the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement: So, an East-West confrontation emerged, which is based on Putin’s desire to keep Russian hegemony in the region and enhance his own power.
The new interim President of Ukraine, Oleksandr Tuchynov, is a Baptist pastor and the one time head of the SBU (Ukraine’s secret service), which was essentially an extension of the KGB during the old USSR days. He is also Yulia Tymoshenko’s right hand man, and while she holds no official post in the new government, she is directing government affairs through him.
Elections are scheduled for May throughout Ukraine, and should Tymoshenko get elected, it will signal the continued reign of oligarchs and communists, along the lines of Leonid Kuchma, Ukrainian president (1994-2005), who ordered the murder of journalist Georgiy Gongadze in 2000. Many of Tymoshenko’s countrymen refer to her, as “Putin in a skirt.”
A separate referendum is being called for in Crimea in order to decide if Crimea stays with Ukraine or joins Russia. Even though Putin stated he would ensure Ukraine’s territorial integrity last month, he has exacerbated the situation, and he is using this as leverage against the interim government in Kiev, because he can. And, he can because Obama has failed to offer global leadership and clarity of vision, offering in its stead meaningless warnings and weak statements that invited this aggression.
Currently, even if some older ethnic Russian pensioners, the old communist apparatchiks, want to return Crimea to the Russian state, the majority of the Russian-speaking easterners __ Russo-sympathetic __ are not so indoctrinated by Russian propaganda that they would accept slavery in Putin’s totalitarian state over membership in NATO or the EU. At different times during recent history, Crimea has voted to be independent of the Soviet Union (December 1991) and Ukraine (May 1992-rescinded then reconsidered 1994), so Crimea will do what it will. But, all the signatories of the 1975 (non-intervention) Helsinki Final Act and the Budapest Memorandum, which includes the U.S. and the Soviet Union (Russia affirmed 1994) assured Ukraine’s security and territorial integrity.
To imagine Germany today occupying western Poland under a pretext of protecting ethnic Germans living there conveys a strong analogy of the historical offense Putin committed against Ukraine, and it explains the fear that many other nations with Russian minorities and dire memories of Moscow are now experiencing.
George W. Bush attempted to gain NATO membership for both Georgia and Ukraine in 2008, but Europe refused their membership out of fear of Russia’s reaction, and four months later Putin entered Ossetia, claiming then, as now, that he was protecting ethnic Russians. This precise sort of weakness and policy must be rejected by both Europe and future U.S. administrations, not in favor of war but in the name of peace.
If Europe and the U.S. do not help Ukraine resist Russia successfully, who is next? Belarus? Poland?
On March 1, 2014, Jim DeMint, former U.S. Senator from South Carolina, said, “The Ukrainians who rose to demand freedom need to be comforted by our words and intentions, and the thugs in the Kremlin need to fear them” (Heritage Foundation).
Obama will likely not negotiate this crisis well, and this will be a severe geopolitical blow to the U.S., in many respects, and those patriotic activists in Maidan and across Ukraine, who understand that democratic Ukraine is on the frontline of the struggle against authoritarianism. Let us resolve, despite Obama, to see Ukraine enter the EU and NATO under the next administration, if that is truly their desire. Let us immediately erect a tactical nuclear shield, across the European fault lines and aimed directly at Moscow, as was planned for by Ronald Reagan, and only then worry with making Putin pay an economic price. Let us move forward unwilling to permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed and more determined than ever to not tempt our adversaries with weakness, as we prevent one tyranny, once removed, from being replaced by a far more iron tyranny.
By Justin O. Smith
I appreciate the effort you are making to defend your positions and I endorse vigorous debate, so thanks for that. I just do not see eye to eye on who the good guys are in Ukraine. In my opinion Putin is the closest thing to a good guy defending his national interests. The Ukrainian government is scum from top to bottom IMHO.
Ukraine was engaged with three letter help in ethnically cleansing ethnic Russians for years in the border areas. How many places in the world do you see governments firing artillery randomly into towns and villages as normal policing? Putin said cut the shit. They didn’t and they have been shown the error of their ways and are now being ground up like hamburger by a cabal of the most evil fuqueres Foggy Bottom has produced to date. No elections? Persecution of religion? One could go on and on.

Shabbos only reads Deep Shekels approved history bruh. He never steps outside of the official narrative.
Flash you ignorant slut, he’s simply using the facts to construct the most reasonable explanations.
Did you know that public opinion was involved? The Rape of China became news in the U.S., and people didn’t like that we were supplying Japan with the energy resources (mainly oil). they needed to keep their reign of conquest going?
Finish the Keystone so the oil can go to China as intended. It’s called, $$$$
In the end, it doesn’t matter if you hate Jews or not, since Your rabid, ignorant anti-Semitism is a constant red-herring to muddy the waters.
Hate Ukraine & Israel or love them — I don’t care who does which.
The primary premise I presented was that NO COUNTRY — NOT UKRAINE, NOT ISRAEL — SHOULD BE RECEIVING U.S. TAXDOLLARS TO PURSUE THEIR WARS WHEN OUR U.S. BORDERS ARE SITTING WIDE OPEN. Johnson could have rectified this by moving, motivating and garnering the full support of all Republicans to stop all government funding and spending bills until the Biden regime actually executed its proper duty under the Constitution to seal and secure the border and protect the American people.
You really are good at posting links, but you’re pretty short on critical thinking skills, as near as I can tell.
Read a little slower and try to fully comprehend what is actually stated in the above piece. You assigning your false assumptions and impressions to me are a fool’s errand and speak to your lack of mental acuity.
I can’t be a “shabbos” when I have plainly stated I am against sending any U.S. tax dollars to Israel or any nation while our borders are intentionally left wide open and the Biden regime continues to facilitate an invasion by illegal aliens. You really don’t even have any firm grasp of reality or understanding of the language you are using. Nothing I have stated in this article defends Israel but simply notes that standing by our treaties is “well and fine” — even with that, we shouldn’t be funding the Biden regime or Ukraine and Israel until our borders are sealed and secured and the invasion of illegal aliens stopped.
I’m nobody’s “toadie”.
Until and unless you show me the proper common respect due any person and address me by my name, and stop trying to slur me, I probably won’t be responding to anything you post on any future articles.
You aren’t worth my time.
So if the borders were secured you would be happy to send money to all these other countries? It must be so, you have said it several times.
I haven’t “said it several times”, despite your inference. Every international situation, if it truly concerns our national security interests is different and should and must be approached as such — no big fan of foreign interventions or entanglements here, but there are some situations that might arise to warrant one — variables and factors weigh in — all hypothetical.
So no! You like so many others here see things in my words that were never stated.
For some odd reason it won’t let me post the quotes, but I counted 5 times you said that. That is I believe considered several.
As EXPLAINED To Have Been Stated IN REFERENCE TO ITS ORIGINAL CONTEXT ONY IN SO MUCH AS WE ARE CURRENTLY OBLIGATED BY TREATY — You truly do seem to have a comprehension problem.
Historians of the period, however, generally reject its thesis, pointing to several key errors and reliance on doubtful sources.
Reviewers were generally dismissive of Stinnett’s claims, as many of his claims appear to be baseless. An article in Salon quotes CIA historian Donald Steury:
Stinnett’s starting point is a memorandum written by Lieutenant Commander Arthur H. McCollum in October 1940, which was obtained through the Freedom of Information Act. McCollum, then head of the Far East desk of the Office of Naval Intelligence, discussed the strategic situation in the Pacific and ended with a list of eight actions directed at the Japanese threat. Stinnett characterizes the actions as “provocations” and states his belief in McCollum’s point F (“Keep the main strength of the U.S. fleet now in the Pacific in the vicinity of the Hawaiian Islands”) was intended to lure the Japanese into attacking it. Stinnett asserts that the overall intent was to provoke an act of war that would allow Roosevelt to enter into active conflict with Germany in support of the United Kingdom.
Critical points in Stinnett’s argument were disputed by military historians. His characterization of the McCollum memorandum was not accepted by Conrad Crane, Chief of Historical Services and Support at the United States Army Heritage and Education Center, who wrote: “A close reading shows that its recommendations were supposed to deter and contain Japan, while better preparing the United States for a future conflict in the Pacific. There is an offhand remark that an overt Japanese act of war would make it easier to garner public support for actions against Japan, but the document’s intent was not to ensure that event happened.” This means that Stinnett attributes to McCollum a position McCollum expressly refuted. Furthermore, McCollum’s own sworn testimony also refutes it.
Stinnett argues that the attacking fleet was detected by radio and intelligence intercepts, but the information was deliberately withheld from Admiral Husband E. Kimmel, the commander of the Pacific Fleet at that time.
Walter Short and Kimmel were ordered to remain in a defensive posture with respect to the Japanese. Stinnett claims that intelligence intercepts were deliberately withheld from them to prevent them from mounting an adequate defense. He also claims that radio traffic was intercepted from the fleet as it approached Hawaii, allowing it to be tracked, but again, the information was withheld so that the defenders would be unprepared. All, says Stinnett, was directed from the White House itself with Roosevelt’s knowledge and at his behest.
Philip Zelikow, writing in Foreign Affairs, objected to Stinnett’s claim that the Japanese naval code was being read at the time (the JN-25 code was changed shortly before the attack and was not decrypted again until May 1942), an objection also raised by Crane. A review posted on the U.S. Naval Cryptologic Veterans Association website addresses the intelligence issues in greater detail and disputes claims that the fleet was detected through direction finding; the author also criticizes Stinnett’s use of testimony from Robert Ogg, originally identified as “Seaman Z” by John Toland in his 1986 book. Indeed, Ogg expressly denies saying what Toland quotes him as saying. In their annotations on the 1995 Pentagon study of the attack, Frederic Borch and Daniel Martinez, chief historian at the USS Arizona Memorial, also dispute these claims and call his claims “totally false”.
Stinnett’s claims of “intercepts” are contradicted by Japanese testimony, which unequivocally state there were none, and even transmitter keys were removed from radios of ships in the task force. (The claim of a need for “low-power radio” made by Stinnett ignores standard fleet practice under radio silence, use of flag or blinker.) Moreover, his “intercepts” do not amount to direction finding bearings, contrary to his claims, while his document allegedly showing the plot of these nonexistent bearings contains nothing of the kind.
“If there was this vast and humongous conspiracy”, its members had to number in the hundreds. Among them would have to be Lt. Kermit Tyler who, on the morning of 7 December, was contacted about a radar contact on an inbound flight, and told the operators to forget about it. One would also have to include the Navy duty officer, who was asleep when the destroyer USS Ward first tried to report a minisub contact,] thereby losing over three hours’ warning. It would also include the officer who ordered USAAC fighters be parked in close proximity to avoid sabotage. Also included would be the senior antiaircraft officers, who ordered ammunition to be locked up far from the guns.
Furthermore, Stinnett makes numerous and contradictory claims of the number of messages originated by the Kido Butai, attributing to it messages from shore stations, Yamamoto’s flagship (which was not accompanying the task force), deception measures, and traffic from before the task force even sailed. Moreover, he finds “not a single one” originating from the Kido Butai after it sortied 26 November.
David Kahn commented on the book, stating that it had “basic errors of fact” and “tendentious interpretations” and was “an extraordinarily sloppy book”. Examples include Stinett commenting on Japanese code wheels which did not exist, and misreading a date that said 15-5-41 as December 5, 1941. Stinnett also mistakenly believed that provoking Japan into an act of war against another nation would trigger the mutual assistance provision of the Axis Tripartite Pact.
Historian Gordon Prange, in an earlier work, noted that a war between the U.S. and Japan was contrary to Roosevelt’s desire to aid Britain in her fight against Germany, and Prime Minister Churchill’s desire to avoid “another war”. Prange, the foremost authority on the Pearl Harbor attack, characterizes the conspiracy theory as “an absurdity.” British historian John Keegan writes that Stinnett’s charges of conspiracy “defy logic”, and fail to show how Roosevelt could have succeeded in bringing US Army Chief George Marshall and US Navy Chief Harold Stark into the conspiracy. Another British historian, Ronald Lewin, calls Stinnett’s theory “moonshine.” Military intelligence historian Roberta Wohlstetter wrote that Stinnett conflated FDR’s desire for an incident which might serve as a catalyst for war against Germany, with FDR’s supposed foreknowledge of such an incident provoking war with Japan. Presidential historian Joseph E. Persico found that FDR drafted an appeal to peace to the Emperor of Japan the night before the Pearl Harbor attack, which historian Hervie Haughler said could not be the action of someone who wished for war with Japan.
You do not appear to have a clue. Google the WW1 conspiracy by James Corbett, watch the video, and then come back and talk about the geopolitics of WW1 and the aftermath when you have half a clue what you are talking about.
Indeed. The Balfour Declaration and Rothschild’s involvement is well documented, and the desire to see a “Brother War” in Europe going back to the 1890’s.
“Cheap Chinese gods that aren’t worth a damn”. You’re just showing your ignorance and lack of keeping current. Chinese products for my industry are completely on par with American, German or Italian manufacturers and and readily available and a hell of a lot less expensive. Most of the business’s in this country would be completely screwed if it weren’t for the Chinese.
I just took delivery on a live lathe center from Aliexpress that cost about 25 percent of what an American brand cost and it actually is better made. People that malign Chinese manufacturing as a whole are living in the past. They have and use technology such as laser welders that the asshole unions in the USA try to keep from being imported to us everyday workers. You need to take a hard look at heavy industries if you think China lags behind. The USA is sadly behind in every conceivable way. We’re becoming a third world country, just look at our roads, bridges and rail roads. I could go on for days but enough said.
Nothing is made in the USA anymore. Not even your underwear.
Even US military suppliers make their non-military products outside the US (recently discovered that Mystery Ranch and Dana Designs, who supply the US military with backpacks, have moved all non Berry compliant construction overseas).
Yes, “progressives” always have liked taking the U.S. to war.
It was European governments who signed mutual protection treaties without really knowing what could ensue, and they went to war following the protectors of a “Royal” family.
“Progressives” were involved, and “progressives” wanted the U.S. in the war.
At the time, only the communists were dreaming of global conquest..
America can’t survive without Israel , which only became a fake and gay nation 76 years ago, because why?
It can. I’ve never stated otherwise. Your assumption is based on whatever you’ve read into my words; I’ve only noted we are currently tied to Israel by several treaties. And, in case You didn’t notice, one of my primary concerns in this article makes it plain that I am angered to see Congress fund Ukraine and Israel before doing anything at all about our own borders.
Focus, Flash. Focus. Comprehend much?
As a matter of fact, as I suggested to CC Rider, any treaty is only as good as those parties involved and Biden could and may yet abandon Israel completely, although not without some serious ramifications as other U.S. allies would grow to see us as an unreliable partner, hurting our interests abroad and hamstringing the U.S. in many other areas necessary to our national security.
But yes … we’d survive without Israel, probably as well as we ever have.
Some, perhaps a great deal, of what we witness currently probably does also hinge, not just on historical animus Hamas has for Israel and the Jews, but due to massive oil and natural gas pockets recently discovered off the coast of both Israel and Gaza. Just as Obama and Hillary destabilized Gaddafi’s government in Libya in order to control and benefit from taking Libya’s oil to be delivered to the EU, and to wipe away Lehman Bros liability for stealing $50 billion in Libyan gold, the Biden regime is playing an angle all of its own that doesn’t give a damn about Jews or “palestinians”.
Thanks for the clarification, spinmaster, but you really should get out of DC sometimes,
Thanks, it sounds like you see things clearly.
You’re very welcome! I try, and I do go to great lengths to research my topics quite deeply, just to make certain my premise isn’t faulty.
We definitely have some real vile, scoundrels throughout our government, traitors worthy of hanging, but this is something the people will rectify in due time or allow to continue as it already has, until the entire system can no longer take it and simply comes crashing down.
Keep fighting the good fight and keep the faith.
The State of Israel definitely has its share of gays and yes a fake nation.
Justin you are full of shit.
I suspect that if this comment is the best and fullest extent, depth and breadth of your intellectual prowess, you are more full of shit than me or anyone else in the entirety of the country. Go forth and be happy in your ignorance, understanding nothing and not knowing what it is you don’t know.

The Jews created and won both World Wars. They now rule the globalist West.
That’s simply not true.
The word “ally” has several different connotations and can mean a variety of things. Without any allies in this world, in business or life in general, you and anyone else are left out there with the wind whistlin’ at Your back and all alone. if the early Colonists hadn’t allied themselves together in the cause of freedom and liberty, our nation would never have been formed.
The same principle applies to nations. If a nation goes it alone all the time, the day may arise when it finds itself facing an entire world aligned against it, because it didn’t act to help preserve freedom in the world when to do so wasn’t so onerous, as some global menace took one nation after the next, e.g. Adolph Hitler.
There are times when a fine ally can be much appreciated, but as one who believes in free will, each individual and each nation has to decide these things for themselves. But no one stands entirely alone, not for long anyway, not easily, and if they do, it often comes at the price of their freedom or their life.
With that said, I’m guilty myself of putting my back against the wall and trying to take on the whole world by myself. I’ve often stated that in this fight to remain free in America, before I submit to tyranny I’ll face the enemies of America alone with rifle in hand and the wind whistlin’ at my back, should no one wish to stand with me.
My Ol’ Daddy — a Combat Veteran of WWII, Korea and Vietnam — drilled it in me from my earliest days that it was better to be dead than red and it was better to die on one’s feet fighting than to die a coward on one’s knees, and I’ve lived by that code all my life, with the addendum that it’s better to fight and win or fight and survive to fight another day, if possible.
If America wants to coninue to Empire, we gonna’ need allies who murder our presidents, intimidate and blackmail our congress, foster foreign invasion of our homeland , spy on our government and attack and murder our navy …..thaze our gratest Allie….reeee
Finally, I’ve pegged your emotional age. Two.
Short list at that.
Israel is not our fucking ally.. They want us either to be their slaves, or to be dead. Read the Talmud, and see what they really believe….
And the Old Testament too!
Indeed. Name a single military action where Israelis died for America.
I cannot. Would someone please list the instances those of the State of Israel died for an American “cause”.
To the extent that Israel is fighting for a country that respects individual rights and liberty, any war they make against pagan barbarians claiming to be Muslims is a fight to preserve those ideals worldwide, so yes, they die for anyone who values a liberal society that respects rights.
I don’t think the Zionists who control Israel are much into reading the Talmud. They are concerned with the survival of their nation and the people who live there.
Fucking foreign entanglements are bad. Not only that but Israel is a terrorist state hostile to America and its interests. Not only that but Jews are explicitly and implicitly enemies of God who are at war with Jesus Christ and His Church. Being allied to such psychopathic filth has never worked out for any nation or country.

It’s fake and gay , all the way down.
Anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state has to support bolstering Hamas and transferring money to Hamas,” Netanyahu told Likud Party legislators, according to Haaretz , Israel’s longest-running newspaper. Doing so would help prevent the West Bank-based Palestinian Authority (PA) from ruling Gaza and giving Palestinians a relatively moderate, unified voice at the negotiating table. “This is part of our strategy — to isolate the Palestinians in Gaza from the Palestinians in the West Bank.”

Wasn’t moderate Yassar Arafat head of the PA or was it the PLO?
No doubt.
With guys like ucker Carlson,Choe Rogan,and Alex Chones, the “opposition” media is misleading the public.
Remember, Putin called him out at the start of his interview, during the interview and Zuckerberg did not deny. 2ndgeneration CIA
Flash, I must say they are doing a damned fine job of it to. There is only one way out of this mess for the USA and it is very violent. Not guaranteed to succeed.
PLO
SLA
PLO, and Arafat rejected every offer of peace to keep his personal power. It is why the Middle East problem will never be solved. No one in power wants to lose power. War keeps them in power. Same goes for the US, if Jews and Arabs got along, what power would the US have in the Middle East? None. It is why Biden plays both sides, it gives him power with both sides.

Allow me to be among the first to congratulate President Biden on his successful re-election.
President Biden, please be sure to utterly humiliate Johnson and the GOP at the Ukraine bill signing ceremony. They deserve it.
And for soon to be convicted felon Donald Trump, well, enjoy prison. President lock-down will be locked down- that kinda has a nice ring to it, actually.
When you are behind bars, be sure to tweet out what a genius you are, too.
The writing has been on the wall for years and years, but it is over, folks.
Bolshevism, American-style is here to stay.
Trump is all in on the Ukriane Israel bill, so if they want to put in a super-max prison once he is convicted, I’ll be ok with that. Not sure how sentencing works but wherever they send him will be acceptable. You know they’ll be leaking all of his processing pics, strip-search videos, health records, everything.
You realize that if they can do it to Trump they can easily do it to all of us…at less than 1% of the cost it took to get Trump.
Yes, prosecutors overcharge defendants routinely so that they will plead guilty to a lesser charge and avoid a trial.
Trump is being treated very unfairly, we all see it, but at this point, the reaction is “Oh, well.” I’ve got a Bolshevik revolution to plan around now.
Wait until Trump’s found guilty and the Dems start screaming for the House of Reps to DQ him from all federal elections.
In that scenario, given what we have just witnessed, do you have any confidence in Johnson? And then who’s going to take his place? Haley? Chris Christie?
Biden can’t go anywhere without getting cursed out or just ignored, and the GOP is so incompetent he is going to get re-elected.
Won’t happen, even the RINO sell outs aren’t that stupid, they like their cushy job to much.
NEVER underestimate the stupidity, cupidity and traitorous nature of the RINO. Backstabbing cock bites first and foremost. At least a Demonrat will stab you in the front.
anon is correct and the Speaker Johnson/Trump connection proves without a shadow of a doubt Mr. Trump is a RINO as well as a democrat although as the nature of the RINO only knows stabbing in the back. Enjoy!
Exactly! They are telling us who is in charge and that we had better obey
Fuck them will a broken bottle.
And Bud Light bottle at that!
Your a moron if you find it okay to subvert the law just because you don’t like someone. I don’t like Biden but would never want him in prison on fake charges. And there plenty of real charges to lock Biden up on.
1/100th of the cost, and you don’t have the wealth to fight back Trump does. See Jan 6th defendants.
My “prophecy”, neither will serve time nor will either receive a paddling for his actions.
I’m sure you mean Biden, but he won’t need maximum a security prison.
Where does Biden stand on this bill you hate so much?
Can’t he just veto it? Or does he like it too…
Trump thinks he is in on the scam.
Does Trump actually think or simply blabber?
Mostly agree, especially about marxists and Biden. You forgot to mention the Repubs. are also the stupid party. They should never have attached the border to aid for Ukraine and Israel because most Americans want that foreign aid. They were never going to win that and the left was never going to relent on the border. Instead, the border should have been attached to something the left really wants, like funding NPR, or the depts. of education or HHS. Besides, they left themselves open to a media bashing.
NO, most Americans do NOT want that foreign aid… Chip
Mr. Hyde may have slightly overstated public support, but I guarantee that “the stupid it burns” demographic is quite large. They get their only news from their phone and Tik Tok, maybe CNN or any of the NBC shit hole channels, Neocon FOX etc. They have no idea what Maidan is, or what the Minsk Agreement was or the attempts at ethnic cleansing of Russian speakers in Eastern Ukraine or anything else.
I know you’re right about that. Still think close to a 60% majority want nothing to do with foreign wars and are sick of all the focus being overseas and want problems on our own shores addressed… Chip
100% absolutely the people want the damned border closed. I do hope at least 60% want an end to our messing with the rest of the world. I hope people also want to remove by whatever means necessary all of these invaders the communists are flooding in to steal our country.
Thank you Justin–nice litany of all the ways we’re totally screwed. I didn’t wake up today expecting any better because of one reason. I do not yet see the bloodshed in the news that will be required to fix our problems. Power is never relinquished voluntarily, but at the end of a gun or blade. The required bloodshed (massive and all-pervasive, in high places as well as low) likely won’t fix anything either, but it will change things.
Business and politics as usual will only increase our problems that you have listed.
You’re welcome, Daddy Joe! I couldn’t agree more. These are the most dangerous times for freedom and individual liberty I’ve ever witnessed in my lifetime. And it appears they’re only going to get worse over the next decade.
Chaos and anarchy have a poor track record on results, and it seems to be just what the “elite” people who plan on controlling everything later on want right now!
Beautiful rant, Justin. The bottom line is CONgress does not fear We the People, because the voters tend to send their CONgresscritter back to the District of Corruption more than 90% of the time. It is a very small risk they take when they turn their backs on their constituents.
It’s not the voters sending the scum back…it’s the algorithms in the machines.
When polled about their thoughts on CONgress, people generally despise CONgress, but give their CONgresscritter accolades for being one of the good ones.
Not me. Because my congress thing was Adam Kinzinger and is now Darren LaHood. LaHood is not quite as bad a RINO as Kinzinger but all RINOs suck none the less. We previously had 1980 3rd party John Anderson (dumbest fuquere you ever saw) Lynn Martin and Demonrat Bill Foster who is still in but redistricted one district east.
The supreme court of USA, Inc. says you’re wrong.
Actually, they don’t say anything. They just dismiss this notion altogether because “reasons”.
Please, cite the case so everyone can read about it.
Thank You, TN! Perhaps some patriots will start sending some eye-opening messages to these traitors via something with a little force and fear-provoking power behind it. We could take a page out of the Weather Underground’s book and make things real interesting for them, in order to finally get them to take notice and address our numerous grievances properly.
Seems to have worked for Black Lives matter and Antifa. Maybe it will work for conservatives too, if only they’ll grow the spine to act in defense of their inalienable God-given Rights.
What did Antifa gain? How did BLM make things better for Black people?
What did the Weather Underground accomplish?
You think it’s important to get attention by throwing tantrums and hurting people, destroying property?
You’re quite right, Wideguy. They didn’t gain a whole helluva lot in the long term, but Antifa had the run and the full support of the City of Portland and Seattle and many other far left bastions across the nation. The Mayor of Portland even stated he was a member of Antifa. Nothing was done in Portland, Austin TX and other cities without making sure it didn’t “offend” Antifa “leaders”.
The same applied to BLM who is largely responsible for the defund the police movement and other race based agendas such as Critical Race Theory and no bail releases. No, their antics didn’t help the black communities at all as the founders pocketed all the money collected in the name of BLM and bought mansions, but in the short term, they had all the Democrat Caucus in Congress genuflecting and kissing their ass in fear.
I would never hurt the innocent, the civilian on the street, or destroy someone’s private property, being a big believer in property rights and all of our inalienable God-given Rights, but in regards to a rogue, illegitimate regime, before I allowed it to fully destroy America or reduce me and my family to nothing better than serfs, I would have no problem targeting my actual enemy using my rifle, or planting a bomb or two in a federal building or the Capitol just like the Weather Underground did in the 1970s; and just as they did, I would issue public warnings to avoid civilian casualties.
What’s good for the goose is good for the gander, and it would put the Marxist-Maoist communists on notice that they aren’t untouchable, and perhaps it would make them rethink their hard left push to “fundamentally transform America” and their campaign against conservatives and Christians by way of a weaponized FBI and DOJ.
“What would things been like [in Russia] if during periods of mass arrests people had not simply sat there, paling with terror at every bang on the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but understood they had nothing to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people?” ~ Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Solzhenitsyn’s words should serve as a warning in the face of this growing trend in America towards an expansion of fascism and tyranny in the country at the behest of the Biden régime and those amerikkans who currently support him and the most anti-American policies and agendas ever witnessed across the span of American history.
Whatever occurs in the coming days and years ahead, it won’t serve the conservative principles the nation was founded upon, until and unless our election system is made properly secure in all 50 states. I aim to live free no matter what, and I intend to do my dead level best to ensure that my children and their children’s children and generations beyond are living free long after I’m dead and gone, even should that require me to pick up my rifle once more and leave the dead carcasses of thousands of red, radical, Marxist-Maoist Democrat Party rat bastards stacked ten feet high and ten feet deep all about me in all directions for as far as the eye can see, to fight on to victory or ’til my last dying gasp … so help me God.

I don’t think you can expect any of our various governments to treat you like Antifa or the BLMers or the pro-Hamas protesters were/ are treated. Rather than kissing your revolutionary ass, they will kick it.
What did the founders do? They committed an act of treason by signing the Declaration of Independence. They recognized at some point you have to take on the established regime when it is not only unjust, but when there is no lawful way to get it back on track.
That of course is true, but when they called a Continental Congress into being, they had 13 existing governments that were enforcing the laws (mostly the Common Law) and were an organized base from which they proceeded.
If you can convince more than half of our current State governments to call a Constitutional convention, and to call up their State Guard units in defense of their State and the Convention, maybe there is still a chance.
And BTW the Founders had quite a lot of support in Parliament and understood that England faced huge logistical problems in transporting what they needed to prosecute the war, an advantage you won’t have when you start planting bombs in Federal Buildings..
An Article V Convention of the States will still require 3/4 of the states approve any changes that are proposed. Can you name 13 liberal states that would refuse to approve something like a balanced budget amendment? Can you name 13 states that would refuse to approve an amendment that would repeal the 2nd Amendment? It is a stalemate on significant changes.
Our nation is too divided to ever make the changes necessary for the Republic to thrive and that is the reason we are being inundated by foreigners. Since every person in the US is counted in the census and apportionment of the house is based on the census, the foreigners are diluting the representation of US citizens, which will ultimately lead to a super majority democrat country.
EXACTLY!
The Constitution mentions “persons” several times when addressing the issue of apportioning representatives, but, I think the 14th Amendment makes it clear that the persons they are talking about are the Citizens of the U.S.
Pretending that the Constitution guarantees representation(or a vote) to non-citizens simply because they happen to be in the country requires that you believe the Founders were fools, or actual enemies of the system they created.
I can imagine 3/4 of the States agreeing to repeal the 17th Amendment, because it would give them more power than they now have.
I doubt even that would sail through. Taking power away from the District of Corruption would interrupt the flow of money down to the states and would threaten the approval of activist judges, where the real laws are made.
I have studied the history of the 17th. The progressives spent 75 years attempting to get it passed before they finally succeeded. I doubt they will give up that power easily.
Perhaps the States that understand that taking money from Washington is a deal with the devil will call a convention of themselves and emend the Constitution without the approval of the various socialist State governments.
I suppose some would call that secession from the Union, but the Union only exists under the Constitution, and many states no longer operate under constitutions, or have any respect for the U.S. Constitution.
Can you secede from a “Union” that has ceased to exist?.
I certainly see Balkanization in the future of the US, probably due to a collapse of the U$D.
You first then glownigger.
FUCK YOU … I have no problem standing up to any authority that tries to oppress me and my rights, with others or with nothin’ but a cold wind whistlin’ at my back. I act at a time of my choosing and a place of my choosing.
What? You scared? You want to live forever? I’ll bet you’re on your knees in front of a Joe Biden blowup doll sucking his dick every morning.
I’m on the record in numerous articles stating that if enough people want to join me, I’m willing to be out in front of the pack leading the way.
Keep hiding in your dark corner crying in your pillow — COWARD.
You seem to have a fixation upon oral copulation, perhaps from fellating your friends in Tel Aviv so often?
A coward? No, just not stupid enough to incriminate myself on a public forum. I really can’t tell at this point whether you are just an unhinged boomer whose mind has been rotted from too many Star Wars and John Wayne films, or a fedboi. So kudos “Justin” (or whatever your name is), you’ve totally nailed the insecure, tryhard, petite phallus energy your generation is known for.
If you are stupid enough to post your violent ideations on the internet, you aren’t fit to lead a conga line, let alone a fire team.
Not “stupid” — just not afraid, nor do I care, to tell the Democrat Party Commies, the Biden regime and any future regime that if they keep coming for our freedom and liberties, there will be a day they go too far and millions of liberty-minded Americans just like me will do our dead level best to hand them their collective asses in a handbasket.
So you can go crawl back in your hole now with your dido and suck away to your heart’s content — Fuckin’ Piece of Shit COWARD! I doubt you’re fit for much of anything other than running your dick-sucker.
Ah, so just a loudmouthed boor with too much of Uncle Sam’s kool-aid running through your veins.
https://dfreality.substack.com/p/requiem-for-a-j6er
I was on the frontlines of the opening salvo of that “revolution” you keep jerking off to.
Where were you, you yappy little mutt?
“Loudmouthed boor”? Look how you started this conversation with me … a big hero hidin’ behind a terminal hurling ad hominem attacks. I imagine the only “front lines” you’ve ever seen was the line to get in to see “Glow”, the homo musical.
Suffice it to say, I’ve been places that have left better men than you quivering and crying like bowls of jello.
Don’t worry about where I’ve been. I know what I’m about and what I can do.
Worry about your own damned self, little grubworm.
“a big hero hidin’ behind a terminal hurling ad hominem attacks”
Literally you, every thread, every article. Last time we interacted you told me to eat shit, and here you are stirring the pot with your inane boomer drivel once again. Are you getting paid by the comment, or are you really this lonely?
As for the activities of homosexuals, you seem to know a lot about them, is that from experience perchance?
I’m sure dodging AIDS at the orgies was a real minefield.
Oh, and Israel thanks you for your service 🇮🇱
probably because you start every conversation being extremely disrespectful and then you’re shocked when someone throws it back at you. I have a low tolerance for your kind of false bravado and small-minded ignorance and bullshit and disrespect. I’m sure I didn’t tell you to eat shit for no reason.
I could ask you the same … “are you really this lonely?” — here you are, still commenting away. I must really have gotten inside your head.
You’re the very definition of “Sad Sack”, camel-humping maggot.
You want civility. Try starting our next conversation with a little of your own.
😂
If you aren’t getting paid by the reply, I feel legitimately sorry for you. Seems like I’m the one who got to you tough guy: here you are, in the wee hours of the night, still desperately lashing out for attention on this thread. Clearly, you have perfected the art of projection.
Likewise, I have a low tolerance for your tired Zionist propaganda, your endorsement of Israel’s ongoing genocide, your feeble intellect, and your rudimentary argumentation skills.
You seem to have confused me calling you a loud mouthed boor with some desire on my part to engage with a shabbos Goy in a civil manner. I don’t expect any civility from a Langley lapdog such as yourself, nor do I desire it.
HAhaHahahahahaha … You truly must be some sort of real DUMB FUCK.
“America can’t be “built back better”, when everything the Biden regime currently supports is damaging some part of Her infrastructure . . .”
You misunderstand; the first step to building back is to create a brownfield.
Right, all the U.S. needs is a remodeling job on the Constitution.
Nice rant Justin ,and all painfully true .Unfortunately just speaking truth doesn’t negate the dire straits we are in . I like ” Crazy train ” as a theme song muself ,,Grandpa Moose ( my paternal grandfather) was a locomotive engineer so maybe I’m just predisposed to my preference on the matter . But this allegorical train has long since left the station , firebox stoked and being continually restoked with more and more fiat currency , of which there is an endless supply . Yes Sir , make no mistake , we ARE ” going off the rails on a crazy train ‘ Everyone here with a lick of sense knows to either jump off or brace for impact by now . I’m personally amazed she’s held on this long without having already met her castrophic ending somewhere . I think this miraculous resilience can at least in part be attributed to the ordinary everyday average dumbasses like meself who just keep goin on bout their business , fullfilling there commitments day in and day out if for no other reason than out of force of habit ( my normalcy bias , its we’ve ever done bruh ). Welp , off to work ladies and germs , “see ya in the funny papers” lol.
Until the minions in DC begin to fear for their lives at the hands of the People, things will continue to get worse. There is no other path at this late date. I admire the Europeans who sacrifice their time to take to the streets in mass demonstrations (the farmers with their tractors being the best example). Americans in great numbers (too many to arrest) should be peacefully creating disruption at every federal courthouse across the land. We are rapidly being cowed into complete submission and time is short.
Throw sand and rocks in the gears/keep prepping and building tribe,when things go full blown wrong find those responsible in your area.
That said,we are all to a large degree responsible for the insanity as we did not fight it at a much earlier time,hence,will be a tougher slog now…..,sigh.
Be patient it’s only a matter of time until the government triggers someone enough to go off the reservation giving the FEDS an opportunity to show the sheep what raw power looks like. The catalyst will likely be a government kangaroo court trial and execution of a normal citizen to further cow the sheep into compliance. On that day the Revolution begins…every cause needs a martyr.
I for one can’t wait to hear the next shot heard ’round the world, but I fear that we’re all deaf:

All communications are monitored (probably by AI now), red-flagged, and sent for analysis by glowies. Resistance will have to be organized using sign language and smoke signals–I kid, but barely–and executed by the (seemingly) spontaneous uprising of lone sheep dogs who spot and maul to death the wolves on sight.
Pretty much any Federal employee is a legitimate target at this point (although I rather like my local postal employee), but any who carry a gun as part of their job description deserve to die a traitor’s death for sure. Lots of local officials deserve to be shot on sight too. I know my state has more than a few who would be lucky to go out not knowing what hit them. Also, any paid security for these clowns are not being paid nearly enough. If you are said paid security, you can’t spend your ill gotten gains when you’re dead, and I’d be any family you have would rather you come home instead of your final pay check.
Those who live by the sword, die by the sword. I’m more than willing to die, as it is far better to be with the Lord. What awaits you when you die, I wonder?
We know it’s broken, we know it’s on fire…we know we keep pointing out the obvious facts to the clueless who cannot comprehend.
I guess when the sheep are living in the street because “new comers” needed better housing they will finally understand the ultimate benefit and utility of fire…“I’m an ordinary guy burning down the house”.
mouse, many of us will likely have the honor of torching our own property. It is coming. If you have to go down in a pile of hot, smokin’ brass at least have the foresight to put down some posthumous incendiaries or booby traps. Let’s not make it easy for them. KTA ! and scorch it if you have to.

This depiction of our old Muslim ex president is really entertaining.
Side bar comments are also entertaining.
Only in America can a gay, Muslim, FBI/CIA created Manchurian candidate whose married to a linebacker like Big Mike become President…we are royally fcuked.
HAhaHahahahahaha … BEST DAMN COMMENT of the DAY!!! Love it! … Excuse my laughter, if You will. It’s either laugh or cry, because we truly are “royally fucked” any which way one wants to look at the matter.
He never ran any show. He’s just a puppet like al the rest.
US Congress are traitors. Every Congressman should be in fear for their safety when they return to their districts.
I’ll make it short.
Ukraine has been proclaimed to become the “Greater Israel” and causing its indigenous population to be exterminated to make room.
Gaza is being genocided to “clean out” Israel.
HIAS(Hebrew Immigrant Aid Services) are running the show in south/Central America to funnel in the illegals by the millions to replace Americans.
AIPAC(American Israel Political Action Committee) basically rules Congress and is the ‘most powerful lobby” in DC.
Ukraine and Israel got the money, and our southern border didn’t.
Any questions?
Huh…that will leave a lot of vacant prime beachfront property in Gaza…what a coincidence.
Ukraine has the third largest Jewish population on the planet, behind Israel and the US.
It is the original Khazarian homeland. Zelensky and Victoria Nuland and her hubby are all from there, and Jewish.

Still surprises many when the uniparty is put full on display.
Do you fucking get it now? There is no part of the government that is responsible to the people at this time. All is lies and illusion.
Do you?
Israel is our “greatest” ally? Hmmm, I think a few guys still living who were deployed on the USS Liberty on June 8, 1967, may disagree with the author. Just a hunch.
I guess Mossad and Zelensky’s tribe have a lot of dirt on the congresscritters who voted for this excrement. Another hunch of mine.
The Israeli lobby entity that OWNS the congress critters because it has bought them is AIPAC.
Right wing hard liners with WHITE MALE SUPREMACY prepared to throw down hard !
Sounds scary ?? Just exactly what does anyone think will end this mess ?
We sure as hell are not ending this insanity in the Ballot Box or The Jury Box !
The last Box is The Cartridge Box !
Which is the way they want it well eventually they will get it .
True Hope Of the traditional AMERICAN DREAM is hanging by a thread !
FORGET ME NOT
Anon, Am I the only one who thinks it odd that anon says “FORGET ME NOT” ???
Daddy Joe during the NAZI take over in Germany professional military men who where loyal to Germany and where members of the Masonic order worked in secrecy risking everything to undermine the NAZIS from within .
It was decided to wear a very small blue pin , a forget me not flower unrecognizable on their uniforms but to their brother masons it was a code to recognize each other !
thousands of Jews were saved by them bumbling paperwork and identification files
Yes I know the demonic Masons who promote The Brotherhood Of Man and the Fatherhood Of GOD
YEP A REAL GLOBAL THREAT
We could ruin everything the WEF , NWO. , UN , CFR , The Atlantic Counsel ….
are all feverishly implementing using our DC PATHETIC PARASITES as useful idiots !
History Repeats itself Socialist Democrats are just the new NAZIS
FORGET ME NOT
Never forget, that government produces nothing. Ours is printing what will very soon
not be worth the paper and ink used to print it.
If we, the producers that supply the government with real value are so restricted and so poorly rewarded, that we stop producing , or when our dollar is no longer recognized as having any real value ,it all goes up in smoke. As they say in the Caribbean: “soon come mon”.
I.just hope I can take a few commies with me when the end comes
Lolbertz…it’s all free speech, free movement of goods and labor and stateless society, because a nation with secure borders is an artificial and tyrannical construct, right up until someone criticizes Israel’s closed borders and genocidal policies…..reeee
Freedom doesn’t come by being stupid or suicidal. Every nation has an absolute right to determine who they wish to allow to reside or visit within their controlled domain. Such has been the way of nations since the beginning, and even Rome and China sought to keep the barbarians out.
There aren’t any worse “barbarians” in the world today, than the world’s Muslims, Hamas and the mythological “palestinians” who are nothing less than Arab Muslims following the edicts and fatwas of the Verse of the Sword and whatever cleric or mullah or ayatollah that has their ear on any given day. Israel was right to build their own wall to keep these murderous Muslims out of their nation and their communities.
Without borders, a common language and a common culture, you no longer have a nation but a cosmopolitan tower of babel and a land of multiculturalist chaos, much as has been created by the Democrat Party Communists through the 1965 Immigration Act and now Biden’s Open Border Policy.
There’s nothing “tyrannical” about protecting the citizens of one’s nation against violent invaders. It’s called “self-defense”, a thing that’s just as good for nations as it is for individuals.
“Every nation has an absolute right to determine who they wish to allow to reside or visit within their controlled domain”
So, what you’re saying shabbos, is that the ” mythological” Palestinians had a right to protect their land from the ” mythological” Israelites , inasmuch as the ‘ “mythological” Americans had a right to protect their “uncreated nation” from the “mythological” British …. I can’t even, bruh…..you just be so wise….reeeee

The Jews were there long before the Arab Muslims. But once again, dumbass, you are deflecting from the main topic, which has nothing to do with Israel’s right to exist. As I’ve previously stated, I am absolutely opposed to any funding of any nation’s projects or wars by the U.S. taxpayers, especially when the federal govt and the illegitimate Biden regime are intentionally keeping our borders wide open to who knows how many of America’s enemies.
We’ve covered this ground a few weeks back. You were wrong then and you’re wrong now. And your link isn’t from a credible source, in case you don’t know.
“Palestini” and all Your associated maps only described the area as governed by Rome at the time and the people, Jews and Gentiles alike, who inhabited it. There never was an actual “palestinian people”, no “palestinian” govt, no “palestinian” culture, and no “palestinan” language; ethnically, these people are Arab Muslims, so you can stop with your disingenuous lies and propaganda.
I think the Turks were in charge before the British Mandate was created….
Shouldn’t then Turks be protecting the people in Palestine?
Let’s see, I can’t remember, who ruled in Palestine before the Ottoman Turks… Lots of empires, was the Rashidan Empire the first Arab empire to rule over Palestine? I think so.
To be concise, Justin is right, the Arabs currently living in Palestine have no more right to claim it as their ancient Nation than do the Romans.
“As good as our bicameral federal system has been, for the most part, our increasingly immoral populace has made possible for its subversion and manipulation, in such a manner as to create a new tyrannical government similar to the kind people feared most at the time leading up to our War for Independence, and it would appear that the concerns of the anti-federalists were well founded at the time of the Constitution’s ratification, since we now have a tyrant wannabe in Traitor Joe who acts every bit as tho’ he were King of America, without nary a fare-the-well.”
Blaming it on an “immoral” citizenry really won’t do.
Every step of the way, Politicians in Congress have chipped away at the limits in our Constitution; limits on government power, and then subverted them wholesale.
The Anti-federalists were mainly concerned with deficiencies they saw in the proposed constitution. They already knew about the deficiencies of humans.
Imagining that a whole people can be made more “moral” by any positive action of government (or society, though society has a better chance…), so that government itself can be run properly is nonsense the Anti-federalists would have laughed at. There are always enough moral people, and too many who are immoral, with the immoral tending toward seeking to gain power over others for their own benefit.
The only way to be safe from them is to bind them down with laws, and limit their power with competing factions of government..
Simply repealing the 17 Amendment would go a long way toward limiting our federal government. That would be much easier than waiting around for all the “moral” people to rise up and improve our governments.
Nowhere in the piece did I suggest it was the job of Congress to make the people more moral or that they should. I was pointing out that an immoral populace, from their own greed and desire, have continued to elect corrupt and corruptible people to high offices in order to keep the welfare state alive, if not so well. So yes, in large part, our dysfunctional govt is the fault of We the People.
That they chipped away at the Constitution was to be expected, since that was the only way to get by with so many egregiously unconstitutional things that soon came about.
It’s not just Congress. It’s every agency that has fat ass Commie holdovers deeply entrenched in their positions making illegal and unconstitutional “rules and regulations” that are given the full weight of “law” even tho’ not one single vote has ever been made to pass them legitimately, a sort of administrative tyranny. This isn’t unlike the tyranny that comes from the High Court as well, whose only job is to rule on any law’s constitutionality, not make law; but it’s rulings have always been taken as the law of the land, unless and until challenged by some citizen or nullified by a president’s refusal to enforce them, which has been proper in some past cases.
It’s by way of an immoral populace, that over 70 million babies have been murdered over the past five decades and we now have Homosexual Marriage signed into “law” and validated and given privilege over every other U.S. citizen’s rights, along with the current push to force transgenderism down our throats, even to the point of jailing parents who refuse to allow their minor children to undergo sex-change operations.
I’m not trying to impose my beliefs or principles on anyone. I only take exception to having others impose theirs on me, thinking that their rights should supersede mine. Everybody’s rights stop where another’s begin, but we now find the LGBTQ community demanding more than equal rights and a status that virtually demands the entirety of society validates their immoral lifestyle, as they are granted privilege above and beyond every other regular U.S. citizen.
Other than this, I am in total agreement with You, concerning the repeal of the 17th Amendment. A few others could go to, in my estimation, such as the 16th as well as the 1933 Banking Act too.
The 16th Amendment is actually superfluous.
It was created as a direct response to a very bad S. Ct. decision in Pollock v. Farmers Loan & Trust Co, which held that taxing profits earned by the use of ones’ property.was the same as taxing the property itself.
That moved the taxation of profits into the category of Direct taxes, invalidated the income tax of the time, and required that all taxes other than excise taxes levied by Congress be apportioned rather than uniform as they had always been required to be, (except for taxes laid on wages and salaries, which SCOTUS somehow still viewed as Indirect taxes.).
Anyway, no court since has ever treated the taxation of profits as a Direct tax, and the poor reasoning of the Pollock case has since been overturned piecemeal, making the 16th Amendment unnecessary.
Whats it going to take to repeal the 17th ? Think about it . Its as likely to happen as the FBI or the CIA reforming itself at this point .Or the Federal Reserve , (which” for my money” really created this mess simply because ” human nature “, think about that in stark terms . There are two “government windows” , one where they take your money , another where they give you someone else’s money , which line is longer ? That’s just human nature, most folk would prefer to get free money as opposed to giving the money they actually earned to the government ) Short of a mass/ uprising( actually revolt ) of ” moral People ” don’t hold your breath for any of it ,till the bottom absolutely falls out . Change my mind .
What it will take is enough State governments to realize that they currently have no power in Congress even though the Constitution granted them the power to choose (and remove) U.S. Senators and tell them how to vote. Something that gave the States considerable power over legislation coming out of Washington.
It was crucial check on centralized power, and one that needs to be reinstated..
I don’t disagree at all with your point . Repealing the 17th is critical to re localizing control , which would be optimum to self governance . If you read my reply you’d see that I disagree that itsever going to happen as some kind of solution that stops the hemmoraging in the near future without a hole lot of pain , or anything else meaningful until this whole ponzi scheme collapses and our nation can sober up from the terribly corrupting influences its had on us. I still believe its been all about the money in that way . Had we maintained a sound and sane monetary policy we never could have afforded to get any where near into the amount of trouble we have actually borrowed our way into . There is hell to pay and the devil always collects on his markers , Mark my words . I always come back to this conclusion . The whole federal government is like a bunch of desperate junkies and rock bottom is the only thing that’s going stop this downward spiral . Hopefully it wont be long now
The moral rot is not just minorities and enemy “migrants” / “newcomers”. White women are an equal threat. Since women lack both reason and accountability,giving them the vote and educating them causes big problems. Women can’t truly be educated because they operate on “feelings” instead of thought. They are programmed to “think” whatever “thoughts” are rewarded with approval by an authority figure or other women.
I agree in the main , of course there are exceptions . So there ! I’ve exposed my basic” patriarchal” mindset that took me most of my life to settle into to .
Because of the rampant election fraud Josef Bitem is not even a legal and constitutional president but that’s enough to make you believe, I suppose.
So YOU deal with him. I don’t.

HOW MUCH MORE CAN OUR COUNTRY TAKE ?
The New American.com , Ben Armstrong
An EXCELLENT Analytical Assessment and Great Information. Thank You, My Friend!
How Much More Can Our Country Take? – The New American
“It’s well and fine to wish to help our Israeli allies.”
I’ve yet to find anyone that can list 5 events or actions where Israel has put America first. From attacking the USS Liberty for hours to blame Egypt & start a war to the JFK assassination to poor intel on 9/11 and guaranteeing Iraq had WMD I could go on forever. We are Goyim & Amalek to them.
I once asked myself why did Hitler hate them so much? Of course, if they ever plant that chip in my brain I would go to a deprogramming camp. One of the things I discovered is before Hitler sent them to concentration camps he appealed to Europe to take them. Any country please accept the Jews.
No one would accept the Jews into their country. NO ONE.
Here we are and the world has turned against Israel except the US.
If you’re not willing to ask & research why, you are either a Zionist or too dimwitted. Either way history will be looking for these traitors when the collapse occurs. History remembers and so do people that have nothing to eat.
So You don’t believe in honoring U.S. treaties? Then petition your representative to abandon Israel. Therein lies much ot the trouble with America today. So many people have no honor.
You and others have taken that one phrase out of context, too, in order to infer a different meaning than that which was intended in its original context. So, you also deal in deception and manipulation.
Now read it again, sslloooww, so it sinks in:
“It’s well and fine to wish to help our Israeli allies, with whom we do have standing treaties that oblige us to send them a certain amount of military support each year, under a $38 billion memorandum that was signed in 2016. However, it’s like having a blazing, red-hot poker stuck straight up the taxpayers’ collective asses to discover that the U.S. is sending much more than required to Israel by way of a new bill put together by Speaker Mike Johnson, the Democrats and RINOs, on April 20th 2024, and $9 billion of the total $95 billion, for both Ukraine and Israel, is going to “humanitarian aid” for Gaza, which is the same as saying “more military armaments” for Hamas terrorists. And yet, these goddamned rat bastards in Congress couldn’t see fit to set aside money for actually securing our own borders or demand that our borders be sealed, secured and the alien invasion halted, before one damned red-cent is spent anywhere else.”

Ukraine. the middle east, and Taiwan are not nations of vital interest to the NATO countries. We should not be anywhere near these conflicts. Let those people hash it out. Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan are not our fight. We must get out own house in order, especially in the economic sphere and the area of individual freedom which western governments are now so grievously abusing.
Huh!
I can imagine the world to come…
Putin recreates the Soviet Union, Emperor Xi successfully completes his “Belt and Road” project, and rabid Islamists take over the entire Middle East, which they fight over among themselves forever and Western Europe will return to the Middle Ages with one King to rule them all.
But yes, we must return to limited governments that do what we created them to do, and no more.
After watching the recent deal to fund both wars in Ukraine and Israel and even send aid to Hamas terrorists, without offering a hint at securing America’s borders, no one should be under any illusions that Republicans or a knight in shining armor are coming to save them, their families and America from the current destructive malaise that’s been allowed to overtake our country. We’re in deep shit up to our eyeballs and the fog isn’t lifting anytime soon that has so clouded the minds of so many of – I hate to even call them this – “our countrymen”, although I sure as hell don’t claim the damned sorry exceedingly stupid rat bastards.
Both the Democrats and the Republicans bring their own particular brand of betrayal to the table, as we recently saw Congress refuse to hold Mayorkas accountable for his high treason regarding our border security and the Democrats refuse to call his intentional malfeasance for the felony that it is. But not to be outdone, Speaker Johnson seemed unwilling to actually do the right thing and refuse to move funding for Ukraine and Israel until the federal government was compelled to stop this invasion by illegal aliens.
Both parties have now put America at risk on multiple fronts. In part, we’re currently at risk of an economic collapse in the not-too-distant future, and we are most certainly at risk of an unprecedented social and cultural change – The Great Replacement – by way of this massive illegal alien population making its way across our borders and cheered on by the opponents of assimilation. The consequences are dire and deadly to our nation, if the Democrats and their RINO allies can continue along their chosen path of wanton disregard of the Constitution and the rules that supposedly guide Congress, the President and our High Court.
Our political union is fraying to its core, and it may not be long before the tenuous cord that binds us finally suffers a complete break. There really exists no common ground between the two parties today, other than each party’s love for big spending bills and the expansion of their own powers. Isn’t it interesting that Speaker Johnson also betrayed America by backing the FISA Reauthorization bill?
