Election Interference at its Finest...?

Are you, or someone you know, one of those who agrees that Donald Trump is ineligible to run for President because he committed insurrection, according to the 14th Amendment? If so, I likely can't change your/their mind(s). But here are a few facts to think about or present to others.

1) No one involved in the January 6th disturbance has been charged or convicted of insurrection. That includes Donald Trump. U.S. Attorneys have charged about 1000 people with various crimes, from trespassing to assault, but no one has been charged with insurrection. The closest thing to insurrection was a Proud Boy who was convicted of sedition. But sedition is not mentioned in the 14th Amendment. And that man isn't running for office.

2) Insurrection against the United States is a federal crime and does not fall unde the jurisdiction of state courts. Secretaries of State, whether federal or state level, have no authority whatsoever to decide guilt or innocence in a legal matter. Have you noticed both Colorado and Maine have put their rulings on hold pending a challenge in a higher court? In their rulings Colorado referred to an appeal to the SCOTUS and the Secretary of State in Maine referred to "an appeal to a superior court." They know their decisions are faulty, with no basis in law.

3) Section One of the 14th Amendment says "No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

Officials in both Colorado and Maine have ruled to deprive Donald Trump of his liberty to run for President of the United States without due process. Both have declared him guilty of a federal crime, of which he has never been charged, without due process of law and without jurisdiction. As such, the Colorado Supreme Court Justices who voted to remove Trump from the state primary ballot, as well as the Maine Secretary of State, should be individually charged with intentionally conspiring to deprive Donald Trump of his liberties in blatant violation of the 14th Amendment. The Amendment they used to remove him from the ballot should be used against them in a real court.

Both Colorado and Maine have stated that voters cannot write in Trump's name for President because Trump has been found by them to have committed insurrection. Both Colorado and Maine are depriving Trump voters of their right to vote for the candidate of their choice without the legal authority to do so. I know Trump's attorneys are filing appeals in both cases but I hope Trump voters in both states sue those states for said deprivation of rights again, under the 14th Amendment. 

I realize as of yesterday the Colorado Secretary of State said Trump would remain on the ballot. But as I said yesterday, I believe that to be a ploy... a calculated gamble, intended to avoid a Supreme Court ruling on the matter so they can remove Trump from the ballot on a date closer to the primary so he has no time to appeal before the election. As I also said... Democrats are treacherous... but not stupid. Insidious.

As the caption under the picture says... "The rules have changed."

"Long Live The Intifada"... And Other Nonsense

American protesters supporting Hamas terrorism have recently been heard chanting "Long live the intifada!" But what is an intifada?

intifada /ĭn″tə-fä′də/  noun

"A protracted grassroots campaign of protest and sometimes violent resistance against perceived oppression or military occupation, especially either of two uprisings among Palestinian Arabs in the Gaza Strip and West Bank, the first beginning in 1987 and the second in 2000, in protest against Israeli occupation of these territories.

"An uprising, such as the Palestinian resistance to the 1987 Israeli occupation of the West Bank of the Jordan and the Gaza Strip or the 2011 revolt against Assad's rule in Syria.

"An uprising by Palestinian Arabs (in both the Gaza Strip and the West Bank) against Israel in the late 1980s and again in 2000."

The key phrases here are "violent resistance," "perceived oppression," and "Israeli occupation," the first being justified by people ignorant of history, and the others being ignored by those same people, thus in their minds justifying the first.

The Palestinian people have never been oppressed by Israel. In fact, the Palestinians in Gaza were given their complete freedom/separation from Israel in 2006. They proceeded to elect a terrorist organization as their government. That act is where the oppression began, but the oppression was by Hamas.

When the Israelis left Gaza they left behind the ability for Gazans to grow their own food (greenhouses), a water supply and a power supply. The Gazan people possessed the ability to support themselves - until their newly elected government allowed those systems to fail.

Palestinians have long had the freedom to leave Gaza - at least until October 7, 2023. They could work in Israel, shop in Israel, seek medical attention, and even live there. They choose to remain in the cesspool (of their own making) that is Gaza. But they believe they have a right to the entire country that is Israel. Except the Jews, historically, have been there far longer.

The Jews were conquered many times in history but the land has been theirs since the time of Abraham and, more recently, since Moses led them out of Egypt in 1300 BC. It's the main reason the land was given back to them in 1948.

Historically, the Palestinians have never had a valid claim on the land that is now Israel. History shows that the Philistines arrived from the Aegean region and settled on the Southern coast of Judea (Gaza) in 1100 BC. As they spread their wings militarily they were defeated by David (who slayed Goliath) in 1020 BC.

The Philistines were still in Gaza while the Jews controlled the rest of the area. The Romans took the region in 63 BC. When the Romans put down the Judean revolt in 132 AD, they renamed the area Palestine (after the Philistines) in an attempt to minimize Jewish identification with the land of Israel.

Despite what modern, left-wing, revisionist history teaches, historic timelines verify that the land of modern day Israel was controlled by the Jews far longer than any Palestinian claim. Young people today are being taught false history in school, and they demonstrate it on a regular basis. It's truly a sad world when people worldwide support murder and butchery because they're simply ignorant of the truth.

Who's Controlling The Strings?

 

To anyone paying attention it's obvious Joe Biden is incapable of running the country. From the symptoms he displays, many mental health professionals conclude he likely suffers from dementia. It's not his fault. His brain is tired because of his age. But if Biden lacks the capability to perform effectively as President - who is really running the country?

Many have speculated. I personally believe it to be Barack Obama.

The Biden administration has done nothing but push Obama's agenda since day one. Failing green energy projects. A weak military and weak foreign relations. Alienating our allies and allowing our enemies to increase their aggressive behavior. Although what Biden has done differently is take large payments from our enemies.

Now look at Obama. In an interview in 2020, Obama expressed his interest in running the country behind the scenes. Was it a glimpse of what the Democrats were actually planning? You decide.

“If I could make an arrangement where I had a stand-in, a frontman or frontwoman, and they had an earpiece in, and I was just in my basement in my sweats, looking through the stuff, then deliver the lines, but somebody else was doing all the talking — I’d be fine with that,” Obama said.

Obama is the only President who did not leave Washington DC after leaving office. Coincidence? Again - you decide.

Someone is controlling Biden's puppet strings. It's not Dr. Jill. She's not savvy enough. So who?

An Evening With Disney

We watched Disney's original "Swiss Family Robinson" with our granddaughters last night. It was filmed in 1960. There were obvious blunders in the show that I never noticed as a kid. Zebras, a tiger, ostriches and an African elephant on an island in the West Indies. I guess they weren't to worried about authenticity back then. The girls enjoyed it.

I couldn't help but wonder when Disney will remake this movie to their newly adopted woke standards.

If the new Disney is true to form, the Asian pirate's will become a diverse group of all skin colors and ethnicities and the "Swiss" family Robinson will be black or Hispanic. One of the boys will be changed to a girl, or the girl rescued from the pirates will become a boy so Disney can work a same sex relationship into the movie.

Some may think this is satire... and to an extent, it is. But at the same time it's not. Look what they did to Snow White, Buzz Lightyear and The Little Mermaid. Apparently Disney worries about being woke more than profits because they've lost $900 million in the last couple of years from their woke movies.

Many woke minded people will say "That's wonderful! Disney doesn't care about profits!" Except it won't last long. I doubt Disney stockholders are pleased about it. Look for some major changes soon.

"Go woke, go broke," seems to be the norm these days. I'm not sure why corporations don't get that. Anheuser Busch seems to be getting it. Bud Light doesn't seem to be rebounding. AB is still losing money, along with Disney.

Hey, Disney... here's an idea. Stop destroying your classic movies and simply create new ones for your woke audiences. You're losing fans big time.

Gun Control is Not the Answer

There is no such thing as "gun violence." There is only human violence. Guns are inanimate tools sometimes used by violent people to commit atrocious acts. Guns do not fire themselves. Human interaction is necessary. (Some will say "I dropped my gun and it fired by itself." Um... no. It was being handled by a human, who dropped it. And that rarely occurs with the weapons today.)

People who use guns to randomly kill others are either evil or mentally ill... sometimes both. The Dallas Morning News said the people who were killed at the Allen Mall "weren't killed because evil walked among them." They blame the gun.... and showed their shear, biased stupidity.

Simple fact: Guns only kill when aimed and fired by humans. I've trained with, used and owned guns for over 40 years. None of my guns have ever harmed anyone. Why, if the Dallas Morning News says the gun is the culprit? How is that possible? Simple... guns don't operate themselves.

After the mall incident, the Texas House passed a bill raising the age of purchase of a gun to 21. The mall shooter was 33 years old. Someone explain how that new bill would have prevented the incident? Beside the fact that the bill is unconstitutional, since owning a gun as an adult is a Constitutional right and by law, 18 year olds are legal adults. You cannot legally pass laws that deprive specific groups of their Constitutional rights.

Whether or not 18 year olds should be legal adults is another topic. But it is the law of the land. If you're legally authorized to vote and defend you're country you are legally allowed to own a gun. The Texas bill, if signed into law (highly doubtful), will be challenged in court and anulled if heard by a judge who follows the Constitution.

Gun control is not the answer and will never be the answer. That's simple fact. Texas is going to improve their mental health programs. That's the way to go. Preventing people from wanting to kill is far better than trying to prevent law-abiding citizens from being able to protect themselves and their families.

Coming to a Democrat City Near You

San Francisco... a city I love. Situated between the Pacific Ocean and the San Francisco Bay, the city itself is beautiful. Or once was.

Poor political leadership has taken its toll on the city. Crime is rampant and homeless people legally defecate in the streets. It's the only city I know of where you can download map to show you where feces is on the street.

In June of 2020, San Francisco mayor, London Breed, defunded her police department by redirecting funds from the San Francisco Police Department "to support the African-American community."

Fast forward to last week. Crime in San Francisco has increased exponentially. Police don't even respond to car burglaries and other petty crimes. Drug dealing in the streets is rampant, both in the city and the suburbs, according to the mayor. And her police department is hurting for officers. Go figure.

So after defunding her police force three years ago she now realizes crime in her city is out of control and she wants federal assistance.

I'm not sure why she wrote to a U.S. Attorney since Congress controls federal funding. Perhaps she is hoping he will be her mouthpiece to Congress so she doesn't have to answer questions about her stupid actions.

If the request actually gets to Congress I hope it will be denied. Nothing against the crime victims in San Francisco but when you elect stupid leaders you get stupid leadership and you pay for your vote in one way or another. Good luck
