Michael Scheuer | Non-Intervention

When I was a kid, our high-school classes spent several afternoons, over four years, watching films of events from the Nazis’ long list of atrocities, especially of the concentration camps as they were when liberated in the spring of 1945. The films were terrible at first, after four years of high school they were still terrible, and they remain terrible today. But the shocking impact they had at first lessened, and the repetition gave rise to questions of why do we have to keep watching. It was terrible, it must not happen again, etc., etc., etc. We got it at the first showing, owned it after the second, and were respectively silent but much less interested the third and fourth times through.

The one exception for me was the film of the flamboyantly arrogant, taunting, and deeply cruel Nazi judges sentencing to death those who were said to oppose the regime, and later those accused of trying to kill Hitler in July, 1944, individuals who were often hung with piano wire. The sneering faces of those judges have stayed with me over all of the succeeding years. And it was only decades later that I began to recognize that all the kids who watched those films were being conditioned never to question, no, to be afraid to question, the republic’s ties to Israel. Quiet simply, the films taught American kids not only the horrors of Hitlerism, but that a person criticizing Israel would be identified and damned as an anti-Semite

The enduring and still horrible memory of the film of the judges in action makes it rather startling to see two Jewish-American Democratic congressmen act so much like those Nazi judges since becoming heads of congressional committees. Both Adam Schiff and Jerry Nadler are now publicly behaving in much the same arrogant and flamboyantly cruel manner as the hanging-judges in Hitler’s service. After designating human targets for removal, the Nazi judges and the regime’s prosecutors made up dossiers of false events and fabricated evidence, photographs, and testimonies. They then identified this body of lies as “proof”, and convicted the targeted individual, who was then sent to prison or, more often, to death. This was a swift and efficient legal system, but it had nothing, of course, to do with justice.

We have now seen much of Adam Schiff. Nearly three years of his frantic, guilty-like behavior, bulging, frightened eyes, cascades of highly classified leaks, and accumulating internet reporting about his own illegal and deviant actions. Like Nazi judges, Shiff maintains a smug and condescending presence in the Congress and media, apparently believing the swamp is all powerful and eternal, the same attitude that Nazi judges mistakenly held about the thousand year Reich.

Nadler is even worse. After watching Nadler in committee sessions and media interviews dealing with President Trump, you can understand the workings of the minds of those Nazi judges. No evidence, no witnesses, no photographs, no admissions, no recordings or films, no matter, Nadler’s performance says, Trump is guilty because we say so, and we will be rid of him by drowning him in a tide of lies, innuendo, and media bias. Nadler may not be able to string Trump up with the Nazis’ favorite brand of piano wire, but his desire to hang a man against whom nothing has been proven is as palpable as that manifested by the National Socialist jurists.

Underscoring the appalling nature of the words and actions of Schiff and Nadler is the fact that they are attacking one of their own countrymen. Like most Jewish-American politicians, organizations, media outlets, voters, community and organization leaders, movie stars, journalists, and pundits, Schiff and Nadler hate Trump. Why?

Well, my own view is that they hate Trump because of those two marvelous and increasingly popular Lindberghian words “America First”. Despite the president’s nauseatingly lofty rhetoric in favor of Israel, Schiff and Nadler know that Trump, if he is to regain American sovereignty and independence in full, ultimately must cut the ropes that hold the republic like Gulliver in the thrall of Jewish-Americans and their country of first allegiance, Israel. Indeed, Schiff, Nadler, and their kind will never shy away from destroying the name, reputation, and career of any American who does not toe the Israel-First line, even if following their lead means shoveling out $4-plus billion a year to Israel, while 16 million American kids go to bed malnourished every night. Improving the nourishment, health, and lives of even 1,000 of those kids would be of infinitely more value to the republic than Israel ever has been or ever can be.

I also have to acknowledge that I experienced Gauleiter Nadler’s scorched-earth passion to annihilate those of his fellow Americans who refuse to lick the boots of Israel and their thug-like –e.g. Rahm Emanuel — Jewish-American supporters. In October, 2013, I testified before the Congress’s homeland security sub-committee on the issue of what motivates young Muslims to become jihadis. In that session, I listed six motivators, including a half-century of U.S. support for Arab tyranny, and the U.S. government’s humiliatingly womanish willingness to do Israel’s biding and defend nearly everything it does. The video of that session was on YouTube until the Democrats retook the House in 2018. It has since been removed. About nine minutes of the video of my discussion with Peter King and a decidedly odd fellow named Stewart, the latter a budding Joe McCarthy from Utah, can still be seen, for now, at https://mondoweiss.net/2013/10/relationship-americans-fighting/.

On 18 October 2013, Herr von Nadler gave the media paragon BuzzFeed a statement about me. He also apparently gave it to all House and Senate members. BuzzFeed printed Herr von Nadler’s diktat, and it said, in part,

“Dr. Michael Scheuer’s extreme views toward Israel are well known. The fact that the Republican majority invited such a blatantly outspoken anti-Israel activist is inexcusable. Dr. Scheuer’s testimony before the Homeland Security Committee recommending that America ‘dump the Israelis tomorrow’ couldn’t be more wrong. A strong U.S.-Israel relationship is absolutely vital to the national security interests of the United States. I’m not sure why the Republican-controlled Homeland Security Committee would want to be amplifying Dr. Scheuer’s harmful message.” (1)

Not surprisingly, I was never again asked to speak to the Congress. I also lost my adjunct professorship at Georgetown University almost immediately after the statement was published. Oddly, I was teaching in the 2013 fall semester and no one at Georgetown told me that I had been dismissed. I did not find out until early January, 2014, when I realized the usual request from the university’s bookstore for a list of books I needed for the spring semester had not arrived. I called the head of my department to let him know that I had not received the list, and his response was akin to, “Oh, I owe you an apology. We decided last fall that we did not need you or your course on al-Qaeda and jihadism any more, but I forgot to tell you.”

Thus, the hate, malice, and destructiveness of the Israel-Firsters toward fellow Americans who object to Israel’s chokehold on the republic and its treasury, Congress, and media, extends from the great, like President Trump, to the truly insignificant, like me.

During Mr. Trump’s recent visit to the U.S. troops still ridiculously based in Iraq, he told them and all Americans, that the United States would no longer play the “sucker” to the rest of the world. It surely is true that the President has alleviated some of the republic’s longstanding status of international sucker-hood, but perhaps the most dangerous and expensive case of our sucker-hood will remain cemented in place so long as the republic continues to willingly play the fool for Israel and Jewish-Americans, and allows Israel-First cretins like Schiff, Nadler, and their like to abridge the free-speech rights of Americans.

It would be well, I think, for Mr. Trump to read and take to heart a 1796 letter from George Washington to Alexander Hamilton. Washington’s usual reserved demeanor was, in this instance, noticeably absent. In the letter, he vigorously damned reports that the Directory of revolutionary France was going to send an envoy – perhaps accompanied by a French fleet — to demand from him the “annihilation” of the Anglo-American agreement known as Jay’s Treaty, or face war with France. “We will not,” Washington told Hamilton,

be dictated to by the Politics of any Nation under Heaven, farther than Treaties require of us. … But if we are to be told by a foreign Power (if our engagements with it are not infracted) what we shall do, and what we shall not do, we have Independence yet to seek, and have contended hitherto for very little. (2)

Washington also knew that such a French demand would be supported by disloyal Americans who allied themselves with the French, even to the point of wanting the republic to join France’s war against Britain and much of Europe. Washington said that such support amounted to “the misconduct of some of our own intemperate people, who seem to have preferred throwing themselves into the Arms of France (even under the present circumstances of that country) to the manly, and Neutral conduct which is so essential, and would so well become us, as an Independent Nation.” (3)

Washington, with these words, provides contemporary Americans and their president with a precise description of the situation the republic today faces with Israel. The pro-Israel senators and representatives who place Israel’s interests above those of America’s have indeed thrown themselves into the “Arms of Israel”, and are eager to arrange the “annihilation” of any U.S. citizen’s free speech, income, and reputation if they dare to express loathing and anger for pro-Israel Democratic and Republican politicians in Congress, the men and women who have created and maintained the republic’s decades-long, sucker-like readiness to play the role of Israel’s slave.

If you are serious about America First, Mr. President, release the documents that show the part that Israeli diplomats and intelligence agents played – in cooperation with their colleagues from the UK, Australia, and Italy – in the attempt to overthrow a legitimately elected U.S. government. You could also throw in the proof you have in your possession of Israeli espionage operations in the United States, its theft of intellectual property from American businesses, and its provision of U.S. technology to China and Russia. You might even add to the mix the fact of Israel’s dastardly, murderous, and Imperial-Japan-like attack on the USS Liberty. Taken together, these items would be more than enough justification to give Israel and its Jewish-American operatives the heave ho, leave them to their own devices, and finally erase the word “sucker” from the republic’s forehead.

In the senate career of Rand Paul, the first two months of 2019 have been revelatory. After running for the Republican nomination for the presidency in 2016 – and appearing to have no reliably substantive and consistent stance on many issues – he seemed to become a steady, America First conservative in 2017-2018. Now, in less than ten weeks, Senator Paul has been (a) rather  quiescent in the face the Trump neocons’  loud and accelerating drive for regime change in Venezuela; (b) unfazed by the continuation of open borders and, seemingly, unlimited imports of fentanyl, heroin, methamphetamine, heroin, illegal voters, child-trafficking for pedophile consumption, dole-seekers, illegal criminal aliens, etc.; and (c) eager to canonize the wretched Koch brothers, who seem to stand for the same things and have many hundreds of thousands of dollars to send the Senator’s way. In Rand Paul’s case, it increasingly appears that the apple has fallen very, very far from the tree, and, miraculously, turned into a jackass.

FOX’s morning show’s slogan “Mornings are better with friends” apparently has been changed to “Mornings are better with Israel-First, no American can question that fact”. This morning, Doocy, Kilmeade, and their female echo all attacked the lunatic congresswomen from Minnesota not because she is foul-mouthed, a dufus, unfit to serve, and anti-American – which she obviously is – but because she criticizes Israel and believes the Congress is controlled by Jewish-American money and media power. Imagine that. All of the statements by Ms. Omar prove is that even a dufus from Minnesota is right once in a while. Just as in the case of the late and not lamented Khashoggi, the House of Representatives has asked “how high?” when AIPAC and the Jewish-American congressional members ordered “Jump, lackeys, and neuter Ilhan Omar!” No matter how regrettably, Omar is a U.S. citizen elected by other U.S. citizens to serve them. Both as a citizen and now as a representative she owes no allegiance, respect, or silence to Israel; she has an irrefutable right to say – without fear — what she pleases about that foreign, and not infrequently anti-American nation; and has a duty to try and expose the enormous extent to which Israel and their disloyal Jewish-American allies have corrupted both houses of the Congress. The republic would be better off without Ms. Omar – as it would have without John McCain — but it would be eternally better off without having to pay Israel $4-plus billion per year; defend Israel at every turn, even by robbing U.S. citizens of their protections under the Bill of Rights; and serve as Israel’s servile military protector against a billion Muslims.

There are so many significant events occurring that it is hard to determine which are the most important. Therefore, the following comments treat just three of the issues.

–Venezuela: The ongoing U.S. intervention in Colombia is as pure a Neoconservative operation as it is possible to imagine. The Neocons want to kick out one socialist president and install another socialist president, a process they describe as an effort to reestablish a Venezuelan democracy.

Now, why would any American believe this? We have seen the Neocons do the same thing in Libya, Yemen, Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, etc. and none of those mad crusades yielded anything approximating a democratic or republican system of government. What they yielded were dead and maimed Americans and a bankrupt U.S. Treasury. Indeed, while the Neocons insist that they are spreading democracy in Venezuela, they are resolutely backing their colleagues in the NATO governments, even as most of those regimes are actively adopting laws suppressing free speech; ignoring majority votes of the electorate; arresting and jailing citizens for opposing government policy, especially on immigration; limiting the right of assembly; and, naturally, increasing efforts to stop any flow of weapons to their long-disarmed and now migrant-and regime-besieged citizenry, knowing that civil wars are coming in several NATO countries.

In Venezuela, the Neocons will eventually arrange a well-choreographed, violent event – just as their direct ancestors the Nazis did by staging “Polish attacks” on German border posts on the morning of 3 September 1939 – that will be used to further propagandize Americans to support the addition of the U.S. military to the Neocons’ growing intervention in Venezuela, an operation that is meant to do only one thing; namely, enable U.S. oil companies to acquire control and then exploit Venezuela’s massive oil reserves.

Why Trump and Senator Paul are on the side of this Neocon intervention is beyond understanding because what has happened in Venezuela under Chavez and Maduro has not cost a single American life or limb, which, of course, is exactly the case that existed during most of the war in Syria – until the U.S. military intervened. They also must know – and are ignoring — an irrefutable fact that was written most succinctly by George Kennan in 1996. “Nothing in the vast historical record,” Kennan wrote in response to the idea that U.S. military intervention can remove non-democratic regimes and ensure democracies take root, “justifies the common American assumption that anyone who opposes oppression would, if he were to succeed in overthrowing it, inevitably govern more humanely himself.” (1) Quite simply, what Trump’s Neocons are doing in Venezuela has zero to do with democracy or humanitarian relief, it has only to do with oil and their own lust for unending war.

–Andrew McCabe: MaCabe is an odd duck, although he and Mrs. McCabe probably are living a temporary, upper-class high life, before justice of one sort another hits them for the $700,000 in help-Hillary-money given the latter by Terry Mcauliffe. McCabe is wandering around the country hawking a book in which he acknowledges that he and many other senior DOJ and FBI officials plotted to remove a legitimately elected president. He seems proud of the unconstitutional effort he began, and seems to deem himself immune from legal retribution for his seditious or treasonous activities.

Well, maybe he is. Both Clintons, both Podestas, Loretta Lynch, James Comey, John Brennan, James Clapper, Eric Holder, and Adam Shiff, are all walking the streets with smug, McCabe-like attitudes. Some of them – with President Obama, John Kerry, and Senator Finestein – also appear to be involved in deliberately passing highly classified intelligence to China, either automatically via Mrs. Clinton’s unsecured basement server or simply by traveling to China to hand over the classified data to their paymasters in Beijing.

Never, I would estimate, has the American citizenry been treated to such a clear example of the two-tiered U.S. legal system, where the rich and influential break the law at will and publicly without penalty, while other Americans are jailed for bouncing a $100 check, buying marijuana, shoplifting, or driving under the influence. This reality must be very publicly destroyed by constitutional means – which must include public executions for the guilty – or it will be destroyed, probably with much less precision, by a well-armed and, in many cases, combat-experienced America-First citizenry supplied with an endless supply of sturdy, made-in-America rope. Much of the citizenry, I sense, has had enough and wants no more debate on how to fix all that is broken or ignored in the republic’s legal system. It seems a time for action, not more feckless “national conversations”.

–The 2020 Presidential Election and after: This is a rather natural follow-on to the above piece on McCabe. Although Steve Bannon said last weekend that 2019 will see the most important, if scabrous political debate since the last few antebellum years, but I doubt it. Who will listen? Americans who voted for Trump and those who have converted to his side since the 2016 election have heard all the need to know about what the Democrats intend to do to them, their families, and their republic. The also have seen that intention acted out dozens of times in the videos of police across the country standing back and letting the Antifa militia destroy property, burn cars, and attack citizens for their political, social, and religious beliefs. Yesterday, they also saw a target list of 43 Democratic senators support the murdering of new-borns because they were lucky enough to evade the blade of a smiling AMA butcher seeking kill them in the womb.

These Americans know in their gut that America simply cannot survive the continuation in office of the kind of lethal human scum that is found in the likes of McCabe, Brennan, Clapper, Comey, Strozh, Obama, Powers, the Clintons, Rice, Kerry, Admiral McRaven, and so many others who have served in or for Democratic administrations at the national, state, and city levels. Likewise, they know that America could not survive the election of another Neoconservative government like that of George W. Bush, a war-mongering bunch that featured far too many of the Neocons who are now poisoning Trump’s plans for an America First foreign policy.

We have had too many presidential elections that have been described as “turning points”, and those thus described – like the elections of Bush and Obama – were singular and near-fatal disasters for the republic, just as a victorious Hillary Clinton campaign would have been the fatal icing on an already baked, republic-killing cake.

No, the 2020 presidential election will not be a turning point for America, but rather it will be a final reckoning. Americans know the stinking uselessness, war-mongering, and double-crossing of the Republicans, save for the House’s Freedom Caucus and perhaps a dozen Senators. They also know the endless lawlessness, greed, corruption, infant-murdering, treason and sedition, Christianity-hating, war-mongering, and election-rigging of the Democrats, as well as the approval of most of the media and the average Democratic voter for that behavior.

The rigged 2018 mid-term elections, moreover, reinforced the anti-republicanism and anti-constitutionalism that has festering in the hearts and minds of Democrats since their party led an unjustified secession from the Union in 1861. The 2018 election brought into office an odious gaggle of bigoted, insane, and deviant congressional representatives – mostly from the lunatic, leftist fringes of minority groups and, not surprisingly, mostly women. Together these facts make the idea of the Democrats regaining the White House intolerable as a possibility, and one that, as a reality, would make civil war not a necessity, but a constitutional duty.

The historical point just alluded to deserves a further comment. When Jefferson Davis and his governing colleagues led the Confederate States of America (C.S.A.) out of the Union in the spring of 1861, they were motivated to act on the basis of fears about what detrimental policies Lincoln and his administration might try to impose on the South. They particularly feared that the north, under Lincoln, would seek to end slavery. That worry worry was as much a fantasy as a fear. Lincoln knew without equivocation that the North was unwilling, in 1861, to fight a war to end slavery. If Lincoln had called for a military response to Davis’s bombardment of Fort Sumter and openly identified it as war to free the slaves – an absolutely unconstitutional action – he and his lieutenants would have not been able to raise a force capable of even remotely approaching that goal, let alone one eager and able to defeat the South’s armies, which, in such a war, would have been legitimately defending the Constitution. Lincoln, instead, identified the war as an effort to save the Union, an identification that brought northern men to the flag and battlefield in large numbers for the duration of the war.

In 2020 presidential election, the other side of the 1861 coin will pertain to the republic. The Americans who eagerly will take up arms, pens, and prayers to annihilate the 2020 Democrats, if they prevail in the election they surely will rig, will be acting, unlike the C.S.A., not on often-unfounded fears of the future, but on a detailed knowledge of ugly facts – the brain-dead, anti-human socialism of Sanders and Cortez; the violent attacks by Antifa, BLM, and BAM; and the greed, lawlessness, and treason of so-called “centrist” Democrats — as well as on the hard-earned lessons taught them by the Democrats’ decades-long sordid and lawless behaviors, and their steady and always expanding preference for anti-American rhetoric, policies, and actions.

Never, in U.S. history, have Americans confronted a domestic enemy at once so arrogant, lethal, and detestable as the Democrats; one that truthfully can boast of a thoroughly documented history of hatred for and violent actions against the interests and future of the republic and its citizenry; and one that much more than merits a ruthless, root-and-branch annihilation.

The 2020 election and its aftermath, then, will determine whether America’s republican experiment is at an end, or if that experiment can be reinvigorated and joyfully rebuilt on the steadily mouldering bodies of the Democrats who clearly intended to first pervert and then to kill it.

Decuple: A word from Middle French via Latin and meaning “an amount ten times as much or as many”. (1)

A new national day of commemoration is in order, and a bill should be submitted to Congress to designate the occasion. The republic already has two holidays commemorating and honoring all of those who have died in its wars; Memorial Day – originally for the dead of the Civil War – and Armistice (now Veterans’) Day. Both days are set aside to rightly honor and mourn the nearly 700,000 Americans who have died in combat in the republic’s wars, necessary and unnecessary.

The Jewish-Americans’ recent commemoration of “Holocaust Day” set me thinking about a new American day of commemoration. So as not to distract from that somber Jewish day of remembrance, I thought it best to seek a different name for this solely American day of remembrance. After some reflection, I think the day could be named “Decuple-Holocaust Remembrance Day”, meaning  “Ten-Times-the-Holocaust Remembrance Day”, Let me explain.

The world, as is well-known, has been the scene of mass-murders for almost as long as man has walked the planet. The Mongols’ sack of Baghdad and the Crusaders’ multiple massacres of Muslims in Jerusalem and the Holy Land are just two early examples. In the 20^th century, however, mass murder hit its full stride. Hitler and his Nazis killed six million Jews, Gypsies, and others they deemed unfit or racially inferior. Imperial Japan mirrored the Nazis and killed at least the same number of non-combatants during its eight-year rampage in Asia. (Is there a day honoring these murdered Asians?) Smaller mass murders also have occurred in Africa (Rwanda) and Southeast Asia (Cambodia).

The big-genocide masters of the 20^th century – Mao, Stalin, and their successors – never seem to get their due. Their regimes each arbitrarily killed about 60 million human beings, making Hitler and his murderous followers look like bumbling and underachieving amateurs. These c. 120 million executions surely have been marked and condemned by many nations of the world, but there were no Nuremberg-like trials for Stalin’s aged lieutenants and legatees when the USSR vanished, and Mao died in his bed, neither he nor his lieutenants, legatees, or executioners facing justice. Indeed, the United States and its Asian and European allies have not only ignored the thoroughly documented, seven-decade-old Chinese charnel house – save for boiler-plate calls for “human rights” in China – but they have lavishly assisted China to become a world-class economic and military power. (Are there days set aside to honor those murdered by Stalin, Mao, and their successors?)

Amidst the mass murders of the 20^th and now 21^st centuries, however, no people have suffered more from the phenomenon of arbitrary mass murder than the citizens of the United States. Since the installation of the natural successor to the Nazis’ anti-human Nuremberg Laws, in the form of the Supreme Court’s decuple-holocaust-producing Roe-v-Wade decision in 1973, more than 60 million innocent Americans have been murdered in the womb. (2) And these days, we are seeing the natural successor to Roe-v-Wade in the laws of seven states that sanction the murder of Americans as they are being born, or just after.

We Americans, as result, have more than enough to reason to designate a day of commemoration for the decuple-holocaust we have lived through over the past 46 years. Our 60 million arbitrary murders are a match for any of history’s other leading mass-murdering outfits. Indeed, no one but Mao and Stalin can hold a candle to the record accumulated by the United States via the scalpels and surgical scissors of the American Medical Association. Why just imagine for a moment that,

–The United States, using its own Nuremberg law called Roe-v-Wade, has murdered 86 times more American innocents than the number of U.S. military personnel who have been killed in combat all of the republic’s wars. (60 million to 700,000)

–America has out-killed Hitler and the Nazis by a ratio of 10 American innocents to one Jewish innocent. (60 million to 6 million)

–The United States has murdered a number of American innocents that is three times greater than the total number of civilian and military deaths in World War I. (60 million to 20 Million) (3)

–America has killed innocents in numbers that match – and now probably surpass — all of the civilian and military deaths in World War 2. (60 million to c. 60 million) (4)

–The United States has killed more than 300 times the number of innocents that were killed by the 1945 nuclear attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. (60 million to c. 200,000) (5)

All told, only the United States can match the mammoth holocaustian achievements of Stalin and Mao, and, now that the USSR is gone, Mao’s successors are America’s only real competitor in the field of exterminating innocents. Why should this staggeringly bloody American accomplishment go without recognition or commemoration?

I would propose, then, that the Congress officially designate January 22^nd – the day Roe-v-Wade was decided by the Supreme Court — as America’s official “Decuple-Holocaust Remembrance Day”. It would be a day of reflection, solemnity, and deep shame for Americans, who have thus far failed to stop the unprecedented slaughter, and now see that the process of annihilation begun in 1973 is progressing to the murder of the just born and the dismembering of these dead Americans so that their well-developed body parts can be sold for profit. It also will be day of wonder, a wonder focused on why most of those Americans who mourn their own losses on their own “Holocaust Day” can, at the same time, be full-throated, whole-hearted, and rhetorically vicious defenders of laws that authorized the murder of 60 million fellow Americans, and made the republic’s Decuple-Holocaust Remembrance Day a necessity. One can only conclude that, for those phony mourners, the public use of the phrases “never again” and “never forget” are simply theatrical, and so amount to meaningless cant meant to keep cultivating guilt in Americans and to extort foreign aid for Israel from the Congress.

This day of commemoration would be not a holiday, but rather a day that our ancestors called a “Day of Public Humiliation, Prayer and Fasting”. On 12 August 1861, four months after the civil war began, for example, the unchurched but hardly atheist Abraham Lincoln issued a proclamation calling for a day of “public humiliation, prayer and fasting” on which, he said, it would be “peculiarly fit” for Americans “to recognize the hand of God in this terrible visitation, and in sorrowful remembrance of our own faults and crimes as a nation and as individuals to humble ourselves before Him, and to pray for His mercy.” Lincoln’s day of “public humiliation, prayer and fasting” was conducted on 26 September 1861. (6) Lincoln, in essence, believed that all Americans, by their deeds, words, and failure to act to end festering national problems, had contributed to bringing on the war.

Lincoln’s day of humiliation – and others he declared during the war – did not end the war as quickly as the president desired. It continued until 9 April 1865, just before his death. In the weeks preceding his assassination, Lincoln, in his second inaugural address, suggested that the blood-filled catastrophe Americans had brought onto themselves had run a course that the divinity had intended it to follow. “The Almighty has His own purposes,” Lincoln said on 4 March 1865,

 “Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!” If we shall suppose that American Slavery is one of those offences which, in the providence of God, must needs come, but which, having continued through His appointed time, He now wills to remove, and that He gives to both North and South, this terrible war, as the woe due to those by whom the offence came, shall we discern therein any departure from those divine attributes which the believers in a Living God always ascribe to Him? Fondly do we hope — fervently do we pray — that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away. Yet, if God wills that it continue, until all the wealth piled by the bond-man’s two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash, shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said “the judgments of the Lord, are true and righteous altogether” (7)

A final thought on commemorating Decuple-Holocaust Remembrance Day. Over time, memories fade and attention wanders, and so some more substantial, visible, and enduring item would be a valuable means of making sure, as the saying of some goes, that the phrases “never forget” and “never again” remain strongly, honestly, and forever in the hearts and minds of those Americans who at last resolved to act in a manner, to paraphrase Mr. Lincoln, that ensures this “mighty scourge of Americans murdering innocents may speedily pass away.”

Whether a sizeable statute, a large mural, or a memorial like that of Mr. Lincoln, it must not be a fixture that seeks to comfort or promote forgiveness, but rather one that immediately reminds the viewer of the murderous horror that was once commonplace in the republic, and visually warns him or her of the eternally true fact that demented and worthless human beings have always walked the earth, still do, and have often gained arbitrary power over populations. On this issue, I lean toward a good-sized mural picturing Mao, Stalin, and Hillary Clinton joyfully striding — home at last, you know — toward a rapturous welcome at the mouth of hell, the perimeter of which is surrounded by a crowd of death-wielding American medical doctors, murderous feminists, pro-choice Jewish-Americans, and pro-choice Christians – priests, ministers, bishops, popes, and laity like Biden and Pelosi – individuals of a kind that surely must be among that abode’s most desired, respected, and honored inhabitants. The impact of seeing such a mural, and knowing that it presents an irrefutable truth, would be a fearsome warning, one not soon to be forgotten.

With the mass murdering ended, the prospect of retribution for the republic would still remain. If Mr. Lincoln believed that the republic’s unprecedented suffering in lives, limbs, treasure, and ruined land and cities was divine retribution for the holding of four million black slaves, what might the future divine penalty be on the same republic for allowing the murder of 60 million innocent Americans? That is a question whose answer may be pondered with some discomfort.

Mr. President, why is it that we are seeing a growing squad of Neocons/Israel-Firsters in your administration? As the only thing most of us have to go on are the past performances of these men, it is hard to see what in the world they would or could contribute to an America First foreign policy. Bolton, Abrams, Khalilzad, and, now, the increasingly interventionist Pampeo are all on hand to cock things up. Is it wise to send men who labored long and hard to cause, and then prolong, all of the desperately stupid and unnecessary wars in which we are now involved? There is not much you can so about the Neocons in Congress — like Senator McConnell — who oppose an America First policy, and want the Clinton-Bush-Obama wars to continue. But why, Sir, would you retain the republic’s enemies to conduct your foreign policy?

Most of these wretches are also men who will do America any harm that is necessary to ensure that Israel’s interests are served. Can Americans really believe that these men will steer an America First course?  Mr. President, collusion with a foreign power can be described in three simple words — “Bolton, Abrams, Kahlilzad”. There is always the chance, of course, that you intend to set up these enemies of the United States so that you can fire them on an issue that will demonstrate their war-mongering and alienation from genuine U.S. national security interests. That seems a bit of stretch, however.

The future of your American First foreign policy, Sir, seems pretty grim at the moment. The following paragraphs are simple recapitulations of media stories showing the inappropriateness of putting Neocons and Israel Firsters in the van of the conduct of your foreign policy. Again, here is nothing you can do about McConnell’s war-wanting, but you can ensure that the other men mentioned above and below play no part in prosecuting the republic’s foreign policy

–On Syria: On 29 January 2019, Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell announced his opposition to President Trump’s decision to withdraw all U.S. forces from Syria, as well as his intention to pass some sort of Senate resolution on the issue. In the radio-sound clip I heard, McConnell said he wanted the president to halt the withdrawal so that “our friends”, Israel and Jordan, know we were not abandoning them. Once again, the myriad disloyal Jewish-American leaders and their organizations are quietly squeezing the hundreds they have suborned in Congress to do everything possible to defeat the president’s plans and prolong the damage being done to the republic. And, once again, McConnell and his colleagues are showing all citizens that it is ultimately Israel and its Jewish-American friends that decide how long America’s soldier-children remain in harm’s way in the Middle East, endlessly fighting wars that were lost long ago, and ones that have absolutely nothing to do with genuine U.S. national security.

No border wall, no Obama Care repeal, but, for the Neocons in Congress and out, there are always plenty of tax dollars and lives and limbs of U.S. Marines and soldiers to expend on Israel’s behalf.

–On Afghanistan: President Trump’s growing team of aged but still war-mongering Neocons has been augmented by – God help the republic — another Neocon by the name of Zalmay Khalilzad, who is the State Department’s Special Representative for Afghanistan Reconciliation. Kahilzad is an ethnic Afghan and has been working on “Afghan affairs” almost since the Afghan Mujahedin first took the field against Moscow’s puppet communist Afghan regime in 1977-78. The remarkable thing about Khalilzad is that, although born an Afghan, he has never seemed to know anything about the country except its language. Since the USSR invaded Afghanistan in 1979, Khalizad has recommended policies that have been too often followed, though they have been reliably devoid of commonsense and always damaged U.S. national security.

During the mujahedin’s war against the Soviets and their Afghan communist proxies, for example, Khalilzad and all of the State Department supported those Afghan insurgents who were correctly described as “Gucci guerrillas”. The name was awarded to them because they spent little or no time on the battlefield, being too busy begging for U.S. money, running dope, and slipping away for vacations and personal security in the Gulf, Europe, or India.

The Guccis, however, had the great advantages of being fairly well kempt, usually spoke at least fair English, had traveled outside Afghanistan, and, on occasion, were even known to wear Western-style suits. Khailzad pushed these thieving frauds forward to U.S. leaders and, being the type of foreigners (well-coiffed, English speaking, and tie-wearing) that can always wrap U.S. politicians around their finger, and succeeded – with other democracy-mongers like Robert Oakley, his wife, and Peter Tomsen– in persuading the first Bush administration that these militarily incompetent insurgents were superb politicians who could form a sturdy and durable democratic government in Afghanistan.

As a result, the first Bush administration – which detested the stubbornness and deep faith of the mujahedin who actually fought and died to force the Red Army’s withdrawal – stayed in Afghanistan to build a “Jeffersonian Democracy on the Kabul River”, as the saying then went. Joining it were the UN, the British and German governments, and the lethal plague that fell on Afghans in the form of the myriad Western NGOs who showed up to grab as many U.S. dollars as they could, while teaching Afghans to be good, secular, and libertine Westerners. Needless to say, the end result of the advice Khalizad gave, and his buddies acted upon, was predictable. It yielded the birth and eventual political and military dominance of the Taleban, and created the essential safe haven for Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda. After that disaster occurred, Khalizad shilled for international oil companies to persuade Taleban leaders to allow the construction of energy pipelines through Afghanistan. (1)

The only commonsense U.S. government decision after the Soviet withdrawal in 1989, and, then, the 1992 defeat of the Afghan communists, would have been to pull up stakes run like hell to North America. With Western diplomats and the UN out of the way, the Afghans would have settled their affairs using the same means they successfully have employed for over 2,000 years. A decision to cut and run is the one President Trump should make today, right after he reaches out and gives Khalizad both a boot in the ass and his walking papers.

As if the idea Khalizad representing U.S. national-security interests is not absurd enough, another Neocon named Ryan Crocker has raised his head and published as stupid an assessment of “U.S. success” in Afghanistan as is possible to imagine. Crocker was the first U.S. ambassador in Afghanistan after 9/11 and, in his 29 January 2019 piece in an outlet called Trib Live, (2) he says nothing about the many billions of dollars that simply disappeared while he and his successors ran the show in Kabul.  The same pattern of behavior, of course, occurred during the tenures of multiple U.S. ambassadors in Iraq. He also says nothing about the following facts:

–The Taleban holds more Afghan territory today than ever before.

–After an 18-year U.S. presence military in Afghanistan, the capital of Kabul is largely open to mujahedin attack.

–Afghanistan, today, remains the world’s biggest and most efficient producer/exporter of heroin.

–Since 2001, The Afghan people have proven that no matter how many governments they elect, each will be incompetent, tribal-rivalry ridden, and staffed by a crew of spectacularly skilled thieves, extortionists, and narcotics-and-people smugglers.

–The Afghan military, after 15 years of training and equipping by the U.S. and NATO militaries, cannot defend the country, or even its capital.

–The failed and miserably administered de facto U.S. occupation of Afghanistan, which was designed by Crocker, his ambassadorial successors, and the State Department, has now made Afghanistan a safe and growing haven for the Taleban, the Islamic State, a rebuilding al-Qaeda, and Pakistani and other foreign Islamists.

So, what constitutes the “U.S. success” in Afghanistan according to Crocker? He spends the bulk of his article explaining that the world’s only Superpower worked hard in Afghanistan not to win, but to – wait for it – cultivate women’s rights and feminism. “The Afghan people had suffered enormously through the civil war that began in the late 1970s and the tyranny of the Taliban that followed, Corker writes, “and [n]one had suffered more than Afghan women and girls.” This is Crocker’s justification for continuing a long-lost war in Afghanistan, and continuing the production of wasted billions of dollars and dead and maimed U.S. Marines and soldiers. Crocker continues his justification and even seems to support Joe Biden for the 2020 election.

“I remember taking our first congressional visitor, Joe Biden, D-Del., who was then chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, to visit a girls’ school that we had helped to open. A first-grade class that Biden visited had students from 6 to 12. The older girls had reached school age when the Taliban was in power, so they had been denied an education. They weren’t embarrassed now to be in a class with children half their age — they were just happy to be learning.”

“At the end of Taliban rule, about 900,000 children were in school, all of them boys. When I left Afghanistan as ambassador in 2012, there were 8 million students, 40 percent of them girls.”(NB: This is likely a lie. The Afghan government does not appear to control enough territory in Afghanistan in which to find eight-million youngsters to educate. You might get to a total of eight-million students if you include the schools run by the Taleban, al-Qaeda, the Islamic State, the Saudi and Gulf governments, and myriad, mostly radical Islamic NGOs.)

“We also encouraged Afghan women to play their rightful roles in business, in the Legislature, elsewhere in government and in the military, and they did. The implicit message was that if you step forward, we’ve got your back. It was a time when American interests and American values were in harmony. I hosted receptions to recognize Afghan women of courage. Through the U.S. Agency for International Development, we funded efforts to establish shelters for women fleeing spousal or other familial abuse — a reminder that in Afghanistan’s male-dominated society, it wasn’t only the Taliban who threatened women’s safety.”

Crocker clearly is mad – or, more likely, cynically deceitful – when he claims that this kind of achievement amounts to even a marginal success for any genuine U.S. national-security concern. For the U.S. national government, the only place on earth where ensuring women are full citizens is a genuine national-security interest is in the United States. What Crocker has described is a Democratic Party talking point that gives their politicians and the Neocons a chance to hawk Crocker’s nonsense as a compelling reason for “staying the course in Afghanistan”. Reflect for a moment, if you will, on what should be a hanging offense; namely, the sending of U.S. Marines and soldiers to fight and die for the rights the American governing elite wants to impose by force on foreign peoples.

There is, however, one point on which Crocker hits the nail’s head:

“Now, the United States is negotiating directly with the Taliban. A framework agreement was announced on Monday calling for a cease-fire that could lead to the full withdrawal of U.S. troops. The framework was reached without the involvement of the Afghan government. … By acceding to this Taliban demand, we have ourselves delegitimized the government we claim to support.  This current process bears an unfortunate resemblance to the Paris peace talks during the Vietnam War. Then, as now, it was clear that we were just negotiating the terms of our surrender. The Taliban will offer any number of commitments, knowing that when we are gone and the Taliban is back, we will have no means of enforcing any of them.”

Crocker is exactly right on this point, but he is blind to its accuracy because – like all Neocons – he wants the republic to stay in Afghanistan and lusts for more democracy-mongering and its only tool of installation, offensive war. A policy that produces, as cover for scurrying home to North America, the creation of “coalition Afghan regime” is exactly the America-First tack that the Trump administration must pursue. Since the Soviet invasion of 1979 there never has been a single point in time at which a credible coalition governing arrangement was possible. Perhaps better than any other people on earth, Afghans realize that power is the only universal value, and that those who have it win and survive, those who lose it are dead or emigres.

Whether it was the Russians, the Afghan communists, the Islamist mujahedin, the claptrap, thieving U.S.-NATO-UN-crafted Afghan regimes, the Taleban, or now the Islamic State, there never has been, nor will there ever be, a powerful Afghan entity that will have the slightest intention of genuinely sharing power with other Afghan entities. Today, as Crocker notes, the Taleban will be happy to accept a coalition with the current Afghan government, play well with its coalition partner(s) until NATO and U.S. forces are gone, and then wipe them out and try – with the help of Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, et. al — to hold power against the growing Islamic State presence in Afghanistan and Pakistan, and, just around the corner, the advance of Chinese military power, and the savage and ultimately losing war Beijing will have to wage to try to build the illusory dream China calls the One Belt, One Road Project.

Get out of Syria and Afghanistan, Mr. President. Your instincts were the right ones during the 2016 campaign and they helped get you elected. Stick to them now, Sir, and you will win not only the support, but the affection of those Americans who have long opposed the enormous waste of lives and money in unnecessary and always losing interventionist wars. Unlike the bloated egos and arrogance of the U.S. governing elite, the egos of most Americans do not need to have their republic be “the great, shining city on the hill” for the rest of the world, they only need it to be that for themselves and their families, as something to live up to, not as a commodity to be exported by military force.

So, Mr. President, go ahead, let Syria be for the Syrians, and let Afghanistan be for the Afghans. Let both make of their lands what they wish, to the extent they can. But in the name of God, Sir, for the first time since 1945 let America once again be for Americans, and permit the citizenry to restore the republic as they see fit, and in a form that pleases them. May I say, Sir, that this does not seem to be a lot to ask, and it is in your grasp to provide. End these unnecessary wars.

In surveying a possible answers to the question “Why does Venezuela matter of the United States?”, it is difficult to come up with an answer that does not begin with the word “oil”. Because Maduro has mostly completed the ruination of Venezuela’s economy – especially the oil sector — so ably begun by Hugo Chavez, U.S. oil companies probably are pushing the Trump administration to intervene and create a U.S.-picked Venezuelan president and regime to repay what U.S. oil corporations are owed, and so that the companies themselves can pick up the remnants of the Venezuelan oil industry ‘s facilities for pennies on the dollar.

When the oil industry is calling the tune, all U.S. presidents and vice-presidents must dance its dance. But they cover their lapdog-obedience with rhetoric about the “illegitimacy of the Maduro regime”, the “need for new elections”, the “vast sufferings of the Venezuelan people”, and, of course, the “need to reinstall freedom and democracy” in that country. Whenever the leaders of the national government are trying to persuade Americans that the republic needs another unnecessary war, they wheel out the language of values and abstract theories, neither of which have any legitimate role to play in the formulation of an effective America First foreign policy.

The plain fact is that the United States is cordially hated throughout the nations lying south of the Rio Grande. And why is that, one may ask? The answer, naturally enough, is more than 150-years of unnecessary U.S. government-conducted overt and covert political, economic, and military interventionism in the region. The reason current South American leaders are applauding Vice-President Pence’s appallingly non-America First rhetoric is that Chavez and Maduro have been royal pains in the butt for much of South America, and the leaders of the impacted countries want American blood and money to end their pain. If that is done, they will soon return to America-hating, a tradition of many decades standing.

Beyond that reality, however, is the fact that Spain once ruled almost all of the territory south of the Rio Grande as a colonial empire, plus a good deal of land north of it. As night follows day, the Spanish proved to be horrible governors who were always armed with a chronic inability to govern as anything other than authoritarians. This style of dictatorial rule was left behind for the locals to employ when the fading Spanish empire retreated to Europe. And employ it they have, to the point that, today, there is no reason to believe that South Americans will ever be capable of self-rule and thereby stop the endless stream of strong-man rulers the citizenry either elects or submits to, then suffers under until a new strong man comes along, gains power, and abuses them, and then the cycle begins again. (NB: On this point, see the new  governments in Mexico and California.) This seemingly genetic lack of talent for self-government, frequent preference for a rule-by-strongman, and patent inability to understand the workings of democracy and the rule of law, are precisely the reasons that the United States needs very few – if any — immigrants from former Spanish colonies anywhere in the world.

But what will follow the crocodile tears caused by speeches from Vice-President Pence, Secretary of State Pompeo, National Security Adviser Bolton, and other Neocons about Venezuela’s hungry and suffering people, their ruthless leaders, and its ruined economy, all of which were meant to jerk tears, sympathy, and support from the parents and spouses of America’s soldier-children who would be killed and maimed if the Trump Neocons militarily intervene in Venezuela? The answer to what is next on tap is both obvious and pathetic: invoke the Monroe Doctrine

Murmurings about this sainted policy already are being heard, and they gradually will rise to a crescendo. The citizenry will be told that Chavez and Maduro have allied with the regimes of America’s deadliest enemies – Russia, China, and Iran and its Hezbollah surrogate — and that Maduro is preparing to allow them an undefined “physical presence” in Venezuela, beyond their current diplomatic establishments. After these likely-to-be-unverifiable assertions, Pence or the lamentable John Bolton will claim that a larger presence of Russia, China, and Iran/Hezbollah constitutes a direct challenge to the Monroe Doctrine, and thus to the United States and all of the Western Hemisphere.

Now, it is correct to say that the publication of Monroe Doctrine in 1823 was meant to warn Europe against further attempts to colonize or recolonize South America. Succeeding U.S. administrations applied it against would-be European interlopers until the Carter administration ignored the Monroe Doctrine, gave the Panama Canal to Panama, and knowingly allowed the start of that country’s evolution into a Chinese economic colony.

But since Carter’s hapless presidency, what can be said about what U.S. administrations have done to ensure the world knows not only that the Monroe Doctrine is still in force, but that it will be enforced? The evidence seems to show that the answer is nothing

While Vice-President Pence and his Neocon brothers wail about the horrors of Maduro’s rule and the danger it poses to the United States, all post-Carter U.S. administrations have done nothing to enforce the Monroe Doctrine against the informal economic, political, and religious colonies that Russia, China, Iran, and the Gulf Arab tyrants have set up in Latin and South America.

–China has been in this van of informal colonization through investment; monetary and military aid in the region; purchases of land and businesses; highly publicized visits by senior leaders; and repeated health-care dispensing and good-will building visits by the Chinese navy’s hospital ships.

–Russia, far less economically powerful than China, cannily has taken advantage of fleeting opportunities to put a needle in Uncle Sam’s eye by such actions as sending two nuclear-capable aircraft on a visit to Venezuela and, last week, warning the United States not to intervene in the ongoing process of self-determination in Venezuela. The only mistake Moscow made on this last point is its failure to know that, save for Dr. Ron Paul and, at times, Senator Rand Paul, no prominent American politician has any idea of what genuine self-determination means, nor of the enormous dangers and losses that have accrued to the American people because their government uses the concept as justification for U.S. military interventionism.

–Iran, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards, a dozen or more Iranian media, health, and agricultural organizations, and Hezbollah have been quietly active in Venezuela and across the region almost since the Shia clerics seized power. Although a pauper-state compared to China and Russia, Iran has built an effective and wide-ranging network of small economic, military, terrorist, commercial, propaganda, religious, and humanitarian beachheads across the region, perhaps funded via the narcotics trade in which Tehran regime and its military and intelligence services participate in many areas of the world.

–The Saudis and their fellow Gulf Arab tyrants have built a strong and loyal following among the region’s growing Sunni population, just as Iran has among the Shia population, via their humanitarian aid and proselytizing. The Arabs have invested heavily in the region and have built several of the world’s largest and most ornate mosques there. Both the Arab and Iranian regimes also bring considerable numbers of young Latin American Muslims to study in their religious universities. These men then return home to spread the faith and anti-Americanism; serve as eyes and ears on the ground for Iran and Saudi Arabia; and to help facilitate the covert operations of each.

The foregoing, on balance, are dangers to the United States that multiple U.S. administrations and politicians have nurtured without any credible attempt to cite and enforce the Monroe Doctrine, which, as noted, is the tool created to resist formal and informal foreign colonization in the Western Hemisphere. They also have kept silent about the Doctrine and its meaning while the Chinese and Russian regimes continue to use and expand their Cuba-based signals-intelligence collection facilities which target U.S. military, economic, banking, government, and political entities.

In addition, the same U.S. administrations have deep-sixed the Monroe Doctrine at home by supinely allowing China to create informal colonies inside the United States. Beijing is purchasing technology companies in the United States; placing branches of its own companies in America that are profitable and steal U.S. intellectual property; acquiring tracts of land in the continental United States; and making large donations to U.S. universities to support leftist and increasingly radical professors and the courses they offer to cultivate socialism and communism among U.S. students.

In the context of the untold amount of post-1970 national-security damage already inflicted on the republic by the U.S. government’s estrangement from the Monroe Doctrine, the manic, war-mongering statements by Pence, Pompeo, Bolton, and, now, Israel-First’s felonious clown-of-clowns, Elliot Abrams. about “America’s duty” to help hungry and oppressed Venezuelans are nonsense bordering on madness. These men are concerned with Venezuela mainly because the U.S. oil industry is eager to recoup its losses in Venezuela and to buy up — on-the-cheap — the remnants of that country’s decaying oil-producing facilities. The list of names also suggests that these men are pursuing some unnamed Israeli interest.

Venezuelans will have self-determination only if they choose to have it and are willing to fight for its attainment, a process likely to be arduous, long, and bloody. They will never have it via a U.S. military intervention, which will only yield a long-term U.S. military presence and bases in the country, further drain the already bankrupt U.S. treasury, kill more U.S. soldier-children, and again make Venezuela and the region safe for hating the U.S.government and its interventionism.

The Monroe Doctrine and the defensive shield it long provided are now shredded and dead beyond resuscitation. It was knowingly killed by the leaders from both parties that Americans have elected since 1970. Today, citizens must not allow themselves to be duped into believing that the corpse of the Monroe Doctrine is relevant, and that, to be patriots, they must stride down the path to intervention and war in Venezuela that is being paved for them by Trump’s growing crowd of reprehensible Neocon pukes, their lust for unnecessary wars, and their utter lack of concern about how many U.S. military personnel would be killed or maimed in a war wanted only by the U.S. oil industry and the anti-America-First, Neocon clique.

My preference was for President Trump to have declared a national emergency on 19 January 2019, and then ordered the U.S. military and the Corps of Engineers to immediately complete the construction of an effective wall along the entire length of the southern border. Indeed, if such a declaration was likely to have been hamstrung indefinitely by the federal courts, I would have – with regret and deep concern – supported a presidential declaration of martial law for the period necessary to complete construction. Nearly 80,000 narcotics-killed Americans in 2018 – most from drugs brought in over the southern border – strikes me as an emergency requiring and justifying such action. The border wall also would greatly reduce the ease of trafficking children into and out of the United States, a trafficking meant to harvest blood and body parts from children, and to supply the Democratic Party, the Tech Barons, Hollywood, and, apparently, much of the bipartisan governing elite with the human material required to satisfy their pedophilic appetites.

Sadly, but probably wisely, President Trump made one more detailed and well-publicized attempt to make a deal with the Democrats by offering to fulfill many of their immigration demands in return for funding for reliable border security. Speaker Pelosi, apparently drunk early in the day and unaware that the president’s speech had been shifted from 3PM to 4PM – he had to travel to Dover Air Force Base to meet the Americans recently killed in the Obama-Clinton War in Syria – declared that Trump’s offer was “dead on arrival” even before he spoke.

So, we stand today where we have stood for fifty years, with the Democrats welcoming illegal aliens who: (a) can be bribed with the citizenry’s taxes to vote for them in perpetuity; (b) can flood the country with narcotics, unwanted cultures, and foreign languages meant to destroy traditional American culture, social mores, and erase the republic’s history; and (c) can expand the manpower of the foreign criminal gangs that already are merrily raping, murdering, and dismembering U.S. citizens. Quite simply, this increasingly bloody, fifty-year, Democrat-sponsored tragedy must be stopped now by law or by arms.

There is no commonsense, legal, constitutional, or moral excuse for allowing anyone who is abetting this ongoing human and cultural slaughter of America to remain in office, or, perhaps, even to remain alive. Why should any American die, be raped, addicted, or dismembered; be robbed; or have their children kidnapped for body parts or rape because Democratic politicians, their party organizations, their media apologists, and their increasingly fascistic voters prefer the Americans they disagree with to be dead, raped, cut up, or robbed in the name of one or another of their demented abstract theories, such as the society-killers called multiculturalism and diversity? This is not politics in any acceptable sense of this word. This is knowing and deliberate slaughter, and surely merits the elimination of those who have, and intend to continue to make the slaughter possible.

President Trump may yet pull a completed and peaceful border-security deal out of his hat, but I doubt it. He probably already is confident that the degenerate, libertine, feminism-mad, America-hating, pedophilia-loving Democrats are not going to cooperate in the name of saving the republic and the lives of citizens about who they do not give a damn. President Trump will be confronted – or is he already? – by only the two obvious legal choices: a declaration of national emergency or the imposition of martial law. But if he does not implement either option, and rather fecklessly continues to appeal to the Democrats for help, what is to be done?

The answer is, obviously, for those American men who will no longer tolerate the Democrats’ political manifesto of death and depravity to take matters in their own hands and end the Democrats’ cruel and murderous policy of holding the republic’s citizenry hostage to their wishes, no matter the cost in American lives and treasure.

It is time for the many American men who still possess the treasure known as traditional masculinity to rid this now-failing republic of Pelosi’s toxic tide of soy-boys; ancient, girly-men like Sanders, Biden, and Hoyer; vile, pussy-hat adorned, cursing, and usually ugly feminists; illegal aliens; the MS-13 criminals Pelsoi calls “God’s children”; the rancid brigade of multi-gender mongrels; the tribe of sexual deviants; the fake-science, climate-change lunatics; teachers who are political indoctrinators; all the mainstream media; the American history destroyers/statue-demolishers; doctors grown rich by murdering the unborn; the anti-gun and anti-free speech fascists; the Christian-haters, especially those in the Congress, Senate, and the judiciary; the Tech Barons and their lieutenants now warring against the Bill of Rights by eliminating conservatives from social-media networks; the Neocons, now rightly relocated to party of death and perversion, and any of the other freak and anti-human shows that now make all things Democratic lethal threats to the republic’s survival.

Individually, few of the above-named lunatic causes would, by itself, merit targeted elimination. They would all die from haplessness, ridicule, and the citizenry’s commonsense. What demands their annihilation is their control by the Democratic Party, thereby making that party an obstructionist and death-happy organization whose only products are dead Americans, national bankruptcy, and the ruination of the constitutional republic. Just as a hundred or so Bolsheviks created the USSR, and a minority National Socialist’ government created the Third Reich, this accumulation of deranged freak groups are now pressing the republic toward transformation into an anti-human, lawless, and arbitrary regime; that is a “progressive” government.

If the Trump administration cannot rid the republic of the social, political, and economic pestilence deliberately bred within the Democratic Party and then spread throughout urban and, increasingly, suburban America, the last chance for America lies today where it has lain since Lexington, Gettysburg, Bastogne, and Iwo Jima; that is, in the hands of men who are quiet, stoic, patient, stubborn, polite, armed, Christian, brave, adventurous, commonsense-prone, law-abiding, and liberty-loving. Another attribute of these men, of course, is their expectation that the Constitution and the laws based on it must be applied fairly to all and favor no individuals or powerful cliques, and when that condition does not exist, the time is right to reestablish the equitable rule of law, by force if necessary.

The Democrats and their panoply of the freakish, the depraved, and the criminal have, for at least half–a-century, sorely tried the patience of men of traditional masculinity by what Democratic civil servants have taught their children; by their leaders’ damning and undermining of Christianity; by closing down free speech with multiple tech tools; by murdering infants to the tune of 60 million-plus; by declaring sexual depravity to be the new normal; by flooding the country with criminals, narcotics, and human smugglers; by launching pedophile attacks on children; and, most recently, by demanding death-by-wood-chipper for white, teenage, right-to-life male marchers because they wore MAGA caps.

There is no possible reason for Americans to put up with this any longer. Trump must tell Americans that not only the mainstream media but also the Democrats and all those associated with them are the lethal enemies of the American people and their families, children, Constitution, and republic. This is a very clear and very dangerous situation, Mr. President, and the citizenry needs to hear the facts from you, and how you plan to preserve the republic   by applying the law against these enemies to the most severe extent possible.

Do it President Trump, and do it soon. The thing about traditional masculinity is that it quietly and patiently absorbs abuse, threats, legal favoritism for the Democrats’ freaks, and the refusal of the police to protect the innocent from the Democrats’ paramilitary killing organizations, but it will not do so forever. When enough becomes enough, the result be the unexpected and violent application of traditional-turned-to-lethal masculinity that is far more to be feared than the Democrat’s fantasy about a toxic variety.

Use the proper laws and act soon, Mr. President, or we will end this plague ourselves. By the use of an orderly constitutional scalpel, or by the resolve and savagery of an armed male citizenry, Mr. President, the deadly Democratic scourge that is killing the country is nearing termination. Peace or civil war, Sir, is now up to your actions, or to Mr. Jefferson’s guidance.

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.

As if FOX’s Brian Kilmeade’s daily rant, and General Jack Keane’s periodic rants, in support of endless U.S. interventionist wars are not enough, yesterday FOX’s Dana Perino chimed in with an interview of a U.S. military veteran – I did not catch his name — about the 16 January 2016 attack that killed and wounded multiple U.S. military personnel and contractors in Syria. This attack reportedly has been claimed by the Islamic State’s (IS) media arm.

Perino was at her George W. Bush-butt-licking best, repeating his endless and mindless mantra that we must remain at war because we cannot let these U.S. personnel “die in vain”. The military veteran, off course, agreed with Perino, and then slipped into the same simpering, Bush/Perino-esque sentimentality, saying we cannot let these men “die in vain” and then wheeled out the Bush regime’s sadly durable lie that the war against the Islamists is a “long generational and ideological war” that cannot be won quickly. This maudlin hero of the battlefield finished by again repeating “they must not have died in vain”, meaning – based on his and Perino’s half-ass remarks – that the forever war against the Islamic State, al-Qaeda, and other Islamists must continue so “we can kill them over there and not here at home.”

The foregoing is one-hundred percent nonsense, which is believed only by those who want to keep America at war forever, among whom seem to be the leaders of FOX News. The interviewed veteran, in particular, was so dense – or so deliberately deceitful — that he did not seem to realize that his plea that “they must not have died in vain” will simply condemn more U.S. Marines and soldiers to the same vain deaths that all killed-in-action U.S. military personnel have been led to by their presidents and generals since 9/11.

Three other quick points.

–1.) The U.S. military and civilian personnel who were just killed in Syria, were killed because they were intervening in Syrian affairs on the orders of the U.S. government. Their activities there did absolutely nothing to prevent another attack in the United States. What their presence in Syria did was to remind the Islamists, and those who sympathize with them, that the U.S. government continues to militarily intervene in Islamic nations, and thereafter tries to impose-by-force on Muslims the democracy, secularism, elections, deviant sexuality, and women’s rights that they long since have proven willing to fight to the death. This is simple really. If you want to stop the killing and maiming of U.S. military personnel in Syria, get them out of Syria immediately, and then out of Iraq and Afghanistan as well.

If you want to make sure that the Islamists do not come to the continental United States to attack, immediately build a concrete and/or steel wall along the entire length of the southern border, and immediately locate, round-up, and expel all Muslims who are in this country illegally. Both should have been done right after 9/11, both must be done now. The failure to do is explicable only by recognizing that the bipartisan U.S. governing elite loves to see those they consider lesser Americans die at home and abroad, be it from war or opioids. The only additional defense the republic would need against the Islamists would be to remove the U.S. military from combat roles in all Muslim countries. Absence, after all, may not always make the heart grow fonder, but it does lessen the enemy’s focus, dulls his perception of threat, and allows him to address pressing issues closer to home, especially Israel and tyrant Arab rulers.

–2.) There is nothing inherent in so-called “ideological” or “religious” wars that mandates that they must last for generations. This is a myth created by the Clintons, the Bushes, Obama, U.S. general officers, Neocons, Israel-Firsters, and Jewish-American journalists. These men and women want everlasting wars, but they do not want a final victory because that would derail the gravy train from which they and their elite friends have grown filthy rich since Pearl Harbor.

Any kind of American war – including ideological, religious, and guerrilla wars – can be won in fairly short order if (a) the United States intends to win them, and if (b) the United States wages an all-out war that delivers massive indiscriminate violence and destruction upon the enemy, his civilian supporters, their manufacturing facilities, and their infrastructure.

In the ideological war of 1941-1945, the United States and Russia used this tack to utterly destroy the Nazi ideology and its military manifestation that had pervaded Germany and dominated much of Europe. In the 1941-1945 religious war against the Imperial Japanese military and people, led by a god named Hirohito, the United States used the same tack, plus the God-given traditional masculinity of the astounding and marvelously lethal U.S. Marine Corps, to destroy the deeply racist Japanese religiosity that sought to enslave most of Asia.

–For the United States, long wars occur only when the U.S. governing elite, its kept media, and its unable-to-win generals want them to; when none of them gives a damn about wasted funds, national debt, or body and limb counts; and when they can make average Americans believe the insane idea that the lives of any number of foreigners waging or supporting war against the republic is worth the of a single American life.

–3.) How much did it cost the Democrats/Neocons to fund their Islamic State friends for the operation that killed those U.S. soldiers and contractors in Syria, just after President Trump ordered a U.S. withdrawal from that country? How much support did John Brennan and his brother British MI6 maggots provide to the Islamist killers of the Americans? As they say, inquiring minds …

The intense hatred of the bipartisan U.S. governing elite for the citizenry is overwhelming. It simply cannot be either overstated or over reacted to. Hatred of this sort cannot be tempered or renounced, it must be eradicated root and branch by any means necessary, even hate-filled Democrat by hate-filled Democrat if only that action can turn the trick. Some examples?

–1.) On 9 January 2016, FOX News interviewed a Republican congressman — I was listening while driving and did not catch his name — who said he opposed using Defense Department funds for creating effective southern border defense. That is, no DoD dollars should be used for defending the security and sovereignty of the continental United States. Only in America could elected representatives and senior generals believe it is not the U.S. military’s job to protect the citizenry and maintain full U.S. sovereignty in North America. This is the kind of bone-deep, citizen-killing, and asinine stupidity that would make Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez proud, perhaps even envious.

–2.) The Democrats want $30 billion for foreign aid, but none for a border wall. There is no clearer evidence of the U.S. governing elite’s post-1945 malign hatred for U.S. citizens then in the unimaginably vast amount of U.S. taxpayer funds that the national government has given – most never accounted for – to foreign leaders and countries who are not worth a tinker’s damn in so far as the security and prosperity of Americans are concerned. Foreign aid and foreign-military aid have denied Americans border protection, infrastructure modernization, and lower taxes. They also have bred overseas commitments that have led to unnecessary, casualty-filled, and bankrupting wars.

–3.) Florida Senator Marco Rubio, told a FOX News interviewer on 9 January 2019, that he was an “unabashed supporter” of Israel, and went on to identify any U.S. citizen who questions the national government’s $38 billion allotment for Israel, or that country’s suborning of most of the U.S. Congress – including Rubio himself – as a person who must be placed in the anti-Semite category. Rubio was especially upset by any U.S. citizen who suggests that many leading Jewish-Americans and their organizations have given their first allegiance to Israel, rather than to the United States. This, for Rubio, is blazing anti-Semitism. What Rubio said, in essence, was that Americans have been designated by one divinity or another to bleed, pay, and war on Israel’s behalf; to allow their national government and political system to be corrupted by Israel and its Jewish-American operatives; and to allow themselves to be damned as anti-Semites, lesser human beings, and madmen, by politicians who – like Rubio – live comfortably on the salaries they take from American taxpayers and the campaign contributions (bribes) they receive from Israel and disloyal Jewish-Americans.

–4.) The so-called new Democrats are an abysmal mixture of misfits, the brain dead, society’s dregs, and the leading lights of contemporary feminism. Indeed, just four names – Kamala Harris, Kyrsten Sinema, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, and Rashida Tlaib – hit on a combination of such traits and show the ongoing and accelerating decline in quality, maturity, and intelligence of female Democratic politicians. After fifty years of the Democrats’ unending, always whining nonsense about women’s-rights – recently topped off by the band of conniving, money-hungry, sleep-around liars who attacked Justice Kavanaugh, with the aid of addled Democratic senators — the bankruptcy of the women’s right movement is clear and definitive. In a half-century, the Democrats’ have won for women the right to murder human beings – making them ten times more deadly than Hitler — and gave them the absurd expectation that a hyper-slut lifestyle would get respect from all. Harris, Sinema, Cortez, and Tlaib are an omen of good things to come; namely, the self-immolation of the Democratic Party and the reasserted prominence of the great majority of American women who can fend for themselves, compete as equals with men, and better them, and succeed at home or at work – as they choose — without behaving like Harris, Sinema, Cortez, and Tlaib. The Democrat hierarchy’s hatred for average Americans – as expressed in the deviant, crazed, and/or dangerously low-IQ individuals they select as candidates – is another reason they will not retake the White House, even if they win the 2020 presidential election after subverting it to ensure that result.

–5.) Much of the bipartisan U.S. governing elite has closed ranks to oppose the withdrawal of U.S. military personnel from Syria and, eventually, Afghanistan and Iraq. Asked why do they want to stay, they answer: (a) To protect the Kurds, who are our allies. No, the Kurds are America’s mercenaries. Many are also communists and terrorists, who have killed and murdered thousands of Turks over multiple decades, and against whom U.S. and Western intelligence services have, during that period, helped the Turkish services to try to destroy the Kurd communists; (b) To stop Iranian expansion in the region. Right, Tehran does not have a pot to piss in, but they are going to control the Near East, even though they are outnumbered by Sunnis by about 20 to 1. The Iranian boogie man is getting laughable, but it is still successfully used by Neocons and Israel Firsters –none more so than the anti-Trump, soon-to-be-dumped, war-monger John Bolton — to get U.S. military personnel killed and maimed, and U.S. taxpayer funds wasted, for the sole purpose of protecting Israel; (c) To protect Israel, “our ally and the only Middle East democracy”. This crap, of course, has been cited as the guiding principle for U.S. Middle East policy since the mid-1970s; it was a joke then – just after Israel deliberately attacked and nearly destroyed the U.S. Navy ship Liberty and killed more than 70 of her crew – and it is sick joke now as U.S. money and lives are wasted in the Middle East so the wholly suborned U.S. Congress and senior civil service can continue to earn campaign contributions (bribes), payments for spying for Israel, and post-retirement stipends. There is no reason for the U.S. military to be in Syria, Afghanistan, or Iraq – those wars have long been lost, peace is impossible, and reconstruction means nothing but more wasted U.S. funds — save for two things: (a) the greed of the just noted individuals, and (b) the allegiance of the just mentioned to Israel. The U.S. governing elite’s fanatical dedication to Israeli-over-U.S. interests and its abiding hatred for Americans and their families can be seen clearly in all the young men and women who have been laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery since 1 September 2011, as well as in those who now try to make their lives not withstanding lost limbs and mental illness.

–6.) The southern border is, of course, far and away the best example of the U.S. bipartisan governing elite’s hatred for U.S. citizens they obviously assess as a lesser type of human. For half a century, both parties have wholeheartedly endorsed open, illegal immigration in the name of cheap labor for the Republicans, and illegal and so enslaved voters for the Democrats. These desires completely prevent any compassion or aid for the American citizens who were killed, robbed, dismembered, or raped by illegals; who were infected by the diseases they brought with them; who had their young children kidnapped and sold on the world pedophile market or for body parts; or who became addicted by the narcotics illegals smuggled into America. These illegals also have disrupted and bloated education systems, social services, and healthcare systems; destroyed the farms, ranches, herds, and homes of Americans living near the border; and have taken jobs from millions of Americans, this last hidden by the Republican lie that “Americans would not take these jobs”, meaning that Americans preferred to see themselves and their families starve to death rather than work. In 2018, 72,000 Americans died due to an opioid epidemic that can never be controlled unless the border is closed, and today, in early 2019, all Democrats and a goodly number of Republicans refuse to close the border and stop this slaughter of U.S. citizens.

–7.) Open immigration and the open southern border also have given both parties, senior civil servants, military and intelligence officers, and law enforcement officials a chance to increase the threat to the American citizens they hate. The inflow of illegals across the southern border has put an unknown number of Islamist fighters into the United States, almost all of whom have yet to be identified and rounded-up. This reality has yielded two American- and liberty-killing results.

–First, we have no idea how many Islamists have entered the United States illegally. The only knowable facet of this issue is the complete incompetence of the FBI to stop any terrorist attacks except those in which its officers entrap dumb Muslims into planning attacks, arm them with FBI-supplied inert explosives or weapons, and then arrest the sorry dupes on the eve of the fake attack with much well-arranged fanfare, media coverage, and self-congratulation. The FBI failed to stop the genuine terrorist attacks in San Bernardino, Orlando, Boston, and Las Vegas, and have covered up their blatant failures in each with unbelievable explanations, the peach of that crop being that the attack in Las Vegas was conducted by a lone, old-man gunman who lugged a dozen boxes of weapons and ammunition into his casino hotel room without being seen, and then shot hundreds of the concert goers. This absurdity, of course, was fabricated by a protégé of Comey who was sent to Las Vegas specifically to cover-up the truth.

–Second, unlimited illegal immigration has provided a seemingly credible case for the ongoing destruction of the 4^th Amendment that has been pursued by the G.W. Bush and Obama administrations. Officials in both gangster administrations have justified the unconstitutional interception of all the electronic communications of all Americans on the basis of the huge number of illegal and unidentified aliens resident in the United States among whom may be terrorists preparing attacks. While claiming that without the ability to collect all of the citizenry’s communications Americans could not be protected, these administrations did everything they could to assure that the citizenry would be unprotected by allowing the illegal and unidentified populace to grow as quickly and massively as possible. In short, these anti-American entities used open, illegal immigration not only to kill Americans, but also to drive another stake into the body of their Constitution, and thus their liberty.

Faced with the governing elite’s – and especially that of the Democrats’ — just-documented hatred for those they govern and the Constitution; their undeniable love for the illegal aliens who are killing and dismembering legal U.S. citizens and subverting their elections; foreigners who are endlessly rewarded with the earnings of American labor and the blood and limbs of American children; and foreign, often anti-American nations (Israel and some of the NATO states, for example) that are better treated and defended than the American people, the Democrats cannot be allowed to inhabit the White House even if they win in 2020, or ever again. That can only be done by the citizenry’s willingness to use their only remaining tool against this  lethal but easily identifiable enemy. “Arguably,” Jacob G. Hornberger, wrote in November, 2004,

the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution should have been made first in the Bill of Rights because without the right to keep and bear arms, such rights as freedom of speech and freedom of the press would be treated as nothing more than meaningless “privileges” bestowed and taken away by government officials at will. The Second Amendment is the American people’s ultimate insurance policy against tyranny because government officials know that guns in the hands of the people provide the only practical means by which to resist tyranny. (1)

That this was obvious to the Founders is made clear in an essay published by a supporter of Thomas Jefferson in Philadelphia’s Aurora (21 May 1799). The writer used the pseudonym “Mentor”. I have no idea how Mentor knew that today’s Democrats would create murderous anti-citizen, armed forces like Antifa, BLM, and BAM to destroy the rights that Mentor was willing to defend with arms, but he apparently did. In any event, there follows his precise definition of how legal U.S. citizens, with God’s help, can and must prevent the Democrats from ever retaking the White House.

But as men intent upon hostility have associated themselves in military corps [Antifa, BLM, and BAM], it becomes your duty to associate likewise, Arm and organize yourselves immediately … Do you wish to preserve your rights? Arm yourselves, Do you desire to secure your dwellings?  Arm yourselves, Do you wish your wives and daughters protected? Arm yourselves, Do you wish to be defended against assassins or the Bully Rocks of faction? Arm yourselves, Do you desire to assemble in security to consult for your own good or the good of your country? Arm yourselves.

To arms, to arms, and you may then sit down contented, each man under his own vine and his own fig-tree and have no one to make him afraid….

If you are desirous to counteract a design pregnant with misery and ruin, then arm yourselves; for in a firm, imposing and dignified attitude, will consist your own security and that of your families, To arms, then to arms. (2)

Wiser words were never spoken. Arm yourselves.

Each day the drumbeat of idiocy produced by the so-called Progressives seems to get louder and more agitating. It is not so much the tone of the words they choose to use, but rather the nonsense that they claim to be irrefutable truth.

In this regard, looking at a couple of the news aggregators each day induces something between anger and vomiting, sometimes it stokes both. This week, for example, the scientific world’s new, dazzling star, Chuck Todd, told the world that the “science is settled” on climate change and that his network is “not going to give time to climate deniers (AKA: Truthtellers)”. Todd always has been a pompous and mumbling ass, but his enormous scientific expertise is something of which few were aware.

But here is what Todd and other genius shit-spewers like him should know. The climate-change/global-warming ship has sailed into the abyss of a now-cooling world and has sunk, never to be refloated. The climate fanatics – like all religious fanatics – have aligned themselves with a fake theology. The climate-change mongers have been routinely proven wrong; their lack of commonsense has made them forget carbon dioxide does not rise; they have been dismissed as quacks and fascist-shills by numerous Nobel Prize winners; they have made the scientific academy a laughing stock; and they have joined multiple U.S., UN, EU, and foreign government agencies to fill official scientific reports with falsities or non-pertinent information. All of this to create a “climate crisis” where there is not even a damp squib of such a crisis to worry about.

The climate-change hoax is now seen for what it always has been, the much-disguised but still obviously Hitlerite tool of globalists to impoverish-by-carbon-tax the world’s middle class and install a fascistic world government that will treat the world’s population – especially the white subset thereof — as shit-holers, all done while the elite are ensconced behind the safety of their walled-in governmental centers and wall-protected personal estates. Wonderfully, French President Macron has felt the first sting of incipient and hopefully violent climate-change payback, and it is quite the shame that the angry crowds outside his country estate did not hang his sorry ass. The Einstein-like Mr. Todd would be well advised to prate his climate-change crap from a residence outside the United States – perhaps in an unbearably ugly ménage-a-trois with Macron and his mother-wife — so as to try to avoid the gathering storm of retribution that is headed for him and his fellow climate-change freaks.

Next, Big Chief Elizabeth Warren has emerged from her teepee, cracked a beer, squatted near the campfire, and stated that she wants to run for the presidency. She probably would get some votes as Democratic and Progressive voters had no qualms about casting ballots for the felon/thief/traitor Hillary Clinton in 2016. But where is Warren’s punishment for making fake claims about her heritage in order to achieve greater job success? Is there no penalty for gaming the unconstitutional quota system to secure jobs for which the law says others are better fitted? Here is fake-squaw Warren deliberately pushing aside genuine American Indians so she can take advantage of the quota that was meant – however unconstitutionally – for those thought to be under-privileged? Clearly, old squaw Lizzy said to herself something like: “Screw American Indians. I’m a lawyer and I know how to game the law in my favor, so I will do that and gleefully climb to the top over those red-skinned losers.”

Well, I can see how Democrats and Progressives believe that a person who thinks and behaves in this manner is made of the traditional stuff that makes Democratic presidents despicable. But why not at least pursue an investigation to see whether those American Indians who Big Chief Warren illegally cheated out of advancement have some avenue for legal redress. Like a sutler who illegally sold whiskey to the Indians he claimed to be “children in his care” and then pocketed the profit, Warren champions unconstitutional legal preferences for minorities but then uses the preferences – and her contempt for American Indians and their history — for improving her own position and income. If that is a crime, old Chiefy Liz ought to be tried, convicted and jailed. After all, a few years in prison for simultaneously cheating minorities while singing their praises could only make Squaw Lizzy an even more luminous Democratic and Progressive candidate.

Finally, the media report that California Governor Jerry Brown pardoned five men who had been convicted for violent crimes to prevent them from being deported. In addition, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo pardoned 24 criminals – including a killer – to prevent their deportation. By their actions, Brown and Cuomo have, in essence, become the knowing and willing table-setters for whatever butcheries these now-pardoned illegal-aliens/violent-criminals decide to conduct against legitimate U.S. citizens and their families during their post-pardon careers.

What, at the most basic level, is a father or husband to do to protect his family if his elected representatives deliberately choose – as have Brown and Cuomo – to augment the number of violent criminals on the loose with criminal scum who have already proven their ability and willingness to harm or kill the innocent? Brown and Cuomo are the very antithesis of defenders of “good government” and “ordered liberty”, standing instead as advocates of societal chaos, as well as of random violence against the people who elected them. Because there appears to be no governmental organization to which citizens can appeal for the quashing of the murderous pardons issued by Brown and Cuomo, citizens have, in reality, only one credible option.

If this behavior by Brown and Cuomo becomes standard operating procedure for Democratic governors, their party, and their voters and media slaves, the citizenry will have to reteach them something akin to what the 20^th century taught mankind about Woodrow Wilson’s daft “right of self-determination”. The demented Wilson believed this right would be unfailingly exercised via some kind of voting, not via violence. Alas, the lamentable Woodrow was dead wrong. This right, it turns out, might be exercised through the franchise, but a Chinese lad named Mao taught the world that self-determination also is achieved – and just as justifiably – through the barrel of a gun.

Brown and Cuomo, poor things, have pursued their pardons-for-criminals campaign of violence against genuine U.S. citizens with the same daftness and dimness of their mad progenitor, Woodrow Wilson. They seem to believe that once elected, they are beyond the reach of the voters and so can impose on them any sort of violence and lawlessness they deem appropriate for those they regard as stupid cattle, useful only in election years.

They are wrong. If a government and its leaders – national, state, or local — refuse to protect those they are elected to protect, and instead purposely endanger them and their families, each citizen has no legal or moral option but to find means with which to protect their loved ones and neighbors, and eliminate their tormentors. The means come easily to hand – thank you Founders – in the form of 2^nd Amendment. Thanks to that fact, Brown and Cuomo are now carrying bright and shining bullseyes on their backs. And, in a ringing reminder that what goes around comes around, the safety and survival of Brown and Cuomo are now dependent on the very longshot that none of the illegal-alien criminals and killers they pardoned return to attacking, stealing from, raping, and killing innocent U.S. citizens.

If, in the days ahead, just one of what Mr. Dylan once called “simple twists of fate”could ensure that Brown and Cuomo rightfully pay the ultimate price for deliberately multiplying threats to the citizenry’s survival. Oh well, as a saying here in Virginia goes, “Sic Semper Tyrannis”.
