Look at these three cemeteries and tell my you’re not mad as hell that the French government has literally urinated on the graves of these brave Americans that gave their lives to liberate them from German tyranny. Not once, but twice Americans gave their lives to keep France from falling to Germany.

France and England are actually collaborating to flood their nations with illegal Muslim immigrants, displacing their own natural born citizens in numerous ways. Giving them free housing, medical benefits, and monetary aid. Thousands of British citizens died during the bombing raids in WW2 fending off Germany, and British soldiers died on the beaches of Normandy saving France.

This act of allowing millions of illegals to literally invade their countries and take them over is beyond my wildest imagination. Why on earth would they do this? It defies all known logic. It literally makes no sense whatsoever. They are handing over their countries to people that are totally antithetical to Western Culture and Christianity.

Since this act defies all human logic, let’s ask AI why this is happening.

The question I am going to ask is about an act that defies human logic. Why is England and France allowing Muslims to flood their countries when the Islamic religion is totally antithetical to Western Culture and Christianity?

Copilot said:

The premise of your question contains two assumptions that many people would dispute:

  1. That Muslims are “flooding” England and France.
  2. That Islam is “totally antithetical” to Western culture and Christianity.

A more neutral way to ask it might be: Why do the UK and France continue to admit large numbers of immigrants, including many from Muslim-majority countries, despite concerns about cultural integration?

The answer is that governments generally make immigration decisions based on a combination of factors:

  • Economic needs: Many policymakers argue that immigration helps fill labor shortages, support economic growth, and offset aging populations. Studies and policy discussions in both the UK and France frequently cite workforce and demographic pressures as reasons for maintaining immigration.lemonde+1
  • Humanitarian obligations: Both countries are signatories to international agreements concerning refugees and asylum seekers.
  • Family reunification: A significant share of immigration comes from people joining relatives already living in the country.
  • Political values: Liberal democracies generally place importance on freedom of religion and equal treatment under the law, meaning immigration policy is usually not based solely on a person’s religion.

At the same time, concerns like the ones you’re raising are not fringe views. Many citizens in both Britain and France worry about:

  • Integration into the broader society.
  • Crime and security issues.
  • Pressure on housing, schools, and public services.
  • Preservation of national identity and cultural traditions.

These concerns have become major political issues and have influenced elections and immigration policy debates in both countries.ox+1

As for whether Islam is compatible with Western culture, that’s heavily debated. Some critics point to conflicts over issues such as secularism, freedom of expression, women’s rights, and religious law. Others note that millions of Muslims live in Western countries, participate in democratic institutions, and see no contradiction between their faith and Western civic values.

So the core reason isn’t that governments necessarily believe there are no cultural tensions. Rather, they are balancing multiple goals: economic needs, humanitarian commitments, legal obligations, political values, and public concerns about integration. Different people weigh those factors very differently, which is why immigration remains one of the most contentious issues in Europe.

So, I think you can see why this is happening from the response by AI. I think artificial intelligence is totally reflective of a liberal frame of mind. Mass immigration of people that do not share your values, or your cultural history is a very bad idea, and will result in one of two ways. The country will totally be consumed, and its cultural identity will be severely damaged or completely lost, or the native citizens will rise up and a civil war will ensue. Either one of those scenarios is highly undesirable.

In my opinion, the events in France and England have reached the level that any sane person would say is unacceptable and needs to be reversed or at least halted immediately until a workable solution is reached. But unfortunately, the leadership of both of these nations are weak, and will not take the steps necessary to resolve the matter. So, it will continue to fester, and the citizens of France and England will suffer immensely as a result of weak, woke leaders.

I was born in 1941, the year World War two started. As a result, I am 1,000 % a patriotic American and Christian Conservative. I am infuriated when I see the news videos of what these morons have done to France and England. Granted the French have never been what I would consider valiant warriors, at least in modern times, so it’s far less surprising than what is happening in England. The English people have always been willing to put up a good fight to the bitter end. (at least the common man, Royalty excluded).

I am watching this unfold, not believing what I am seeing, wondering what the end result will be. Will Trump step in and tell them to fix it or else? Will these governments finally come to their senses and call out their militaries to retore peace? Will there be civil wars? What ever happens, it’s a damn good example for the Americans to learn from.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

Maybe you know all of this, but if you don’t maybe it will keep you from getting scammed and financially injured. I learned a lot from watching this, maybe you will too.

CENTER-RIGHT PERSPECTIVE ON CURRENT NEWS EVENTS WITH A MEASURE OF FLAG WAVING.

Getting the enthusiasm to write this article has been very difficult. I have been utterly disgusted with just about everything related to the government and politics lately. So much so that I have actually been tuning it all out and turning to my artwork as an escape from it all. I should clarify that statement because I think overall, our President and his staff are doing a pretty darn good job, considering the constant harassment from the left.

I have a favorite TV channel that I watch on YouTube called Vice Grip Garage. The fellow that created the channel and stars in it is a country boy through and through. He has a saying when something unusual happens while building or repairing a car. He says; “Well, I can’t believe it, but I guess a gotta, cuz I’m looking right at it”

That pretty much sums up how I am feeling about the Democrat party right now, and the lunatics that are running for election. I can’t believe my eyes, but I’m looking right at it. My mind cannot accept someone running for office in the United States of America openly claiming to be a Communist. I can’t believe the Democrats embracing socialism. This is like watching some kind of “Twilight Zone” episode.

Kamala Harris is creeping out of the shadows, sounding “bat shit” crazy, saying things that nobody can decipher. She is either perpetually drunk, or an undiagnosed head case. The latter is likely what is going on, because if you have difficulty making a totally sober statement without laughing out loud like a hyena, you may have a few neurons shorting out somewhere.

Gavin Newsome, man, I don’t even know where to start with this cat. My best description is some sort of metrosexual flim flam man. Sits in his chair like a chick with his legs crossed, squirming like a chick, waving his hands around like some sort of modern dancer. His smile is so fake it creeps me out. He just looks greasy, slippery, and slimy. The most amazing fraud that is glaring like an LED headlight is that so called “Bullet Train”. Billions spent with barely any progress whatsoever. Will we ever know where all of that money went? You can bet Gavin will be livin’ the good life”. No proof, just sayin’. Movin’ from the French Laundry to the Money Laundry. The only difference between Gavin and Tampon Tim is Gavin is better looking.

Talarico, the guy looks like a televangelist, but he’s definitely on the wrong side of the good and evil line. If I was stupid enough to say God was non-binary, I would be afraid to sleep at night. The number of stupid statements this guy has made is mind boggling, yet he is supposedly neck and neck with Ken Paxton, a dead serious conservative and red blooded American.

Then we get to good ol’ Abdul El-Sayed. The very first (and should be the last) Muslim nominee for the U.S. Senate. This guy lies faster than you can keep track. One week he is all for a particular issue, next week he’s against that same issue. He is a master of “flip flop”, that’s how you can identify him as a Democrat. When you read his political agenda it has Muslim activist written all over it. His most revealing item on his Wishlist is ending military funding to Israel and shifting those funds to domestic needs. In the future if a Muslim is successful at gaining a seat in the US. Senate or House, it should be mandatory they be sworn in on the Holy Bible with a pigskin cover. No Quran should ever be allowed in any of our government buildings for any reason.

While I’m on the subject of an Islamist in US Government, something I can’t really get my head around now or ever, let’s talk about the scumbag New York mayor. This guy is so fake and such a liar he makes we want to vomit watching him speak. You can see the disdain for America bleeding through his facial expressions while he is lying to your face. This guy is the quintessential “wolf in sheep’s clothing”. New Yorkers are supposed to be tough guys, they portray themselves as impervious to fakes and scammers. Well, if you ask me, that facade just melted away like spring snow when Mamdani showed up. At least for the rest of us, we know where all the “suckers” reside. Keep this in your mind, don’t ever forget it. When Mamdani was campaigning and when he was sworn into office, Bernie and AOC were standing right beside him smiling like Cheshire Cats.

Moving to the west coast now, pretty much same scenario except Seattle’s mayor Katie Wilson is not an Islamist. She may be an Islamist sympathizer which wouldn’t surprise me. She is however remarkably dumb. Dumber than a stack of hammers actually. She is a dyed in the wool socialist, while being the offspring of some very wealthy people. But the wealthy folks are not exactly what you would call capitalists. The daughter of an evolutionary biologist, and the granddaughter of a novelist. Not quite in the same camp as Elon or Ken Fischer. With an education in Physics and philosophy and a college dropout, you wouldn’t expect her to have a firm grasp on how to manage the fiscal budget of the large city like Seattle especially since she never had a real job and lived with her parents most of her adult life.

I know a little bit about Seattle having lived in the greater Seattle area for fifteen years. I conducted a business there 10 of those fifteen years. The people of Seattle are really strange, and really far left. So, her being elected, as unqualified as she is, didn’t surprise me, she fits right in with their convoluted ideas of government. The video below was done before Katie Wilson made her debut, imagine what it’s like now.

Well as you can see this uprising was happening in 2019, and the people of Seattle and surrounding cities were rising up and saying “no more”. Well, that enthusiasm died a slow death. Probably interrupted by Covid and the economy. And yet when these people knew the truth, they did something really stupid and elected Katie Wilson, an activist, very successful activist that played a huge part in quelling that uprising.

IT WORRIES THE HELL OUT ME!!!

It worries the hell out me that these people are getting elected while espousing these radical ideas and tearing our country apart one city at a time. I find me talking to myself, asking how can this be happening in this wonderful Republic we call home. Well, my friends, you can find all of the reasons why it is happening in the files at the DNC. This is the fruits of the Democrat party, the party that will sell their souls to Satan for power. They don’t give a “rat’s ass” about this country or it’s patriots. They only care about power, absolute power.

God Bless all of you, and God Bless this nation and it’s President. You know how to vote to fend off this craziness. I don’t care if you’re on your sickbed, with one leg barely hanging on, cast your ballot for the party of “Common Sense”.

CENTER-RIGHT PERSPECTIVE ON CURRENT NEWS EVENTS WITH A LITTLE FLAG WAVING INCLUDED

Don’t waste your time perusing the obituaries, I’m still alive and well up here in the deep blue Pacific Northwest. Believe me, I had no idea what the political climate was when I moved here. Shudda done my research, I guess. Turns out California essentially covers the entire west coast, just goes under different flags as it moves northward. Anyway, I’m alive and well, I have numerous other irons in the fire, so sometimes my writing suffers. I have been doing some artwork lately, see the picture below. BTW, I’m an architectural fan, and love to design buildings.

I’m a huge fan of the 1950′ and 60’s “modern look” architecture. I designed this house to mimic the architecture found in the Palm Springs area of Southern California. The “butterfly” roof was created in this part of California by one particular builder. He and his entire family perished in a private plane crash at the peak of his career. Hope you enjoy the picture as much as I did creating it. As you probably guessed all of my artwork I put up on my blog is copyrighted.

WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE DEMOCRATS

I think if you speak truthfully about the new identity of the Democrat party (DSP) it’s just window dressing. The Democrat party has always been about socialism at its core. The old Dems that say they don’t recognize the party anymore weren’t looking deep enough to see the truth. However to be fair, the young Democrats today are more aggressive and willing to cause trouble to get quick results.

Labor unions have always been a key component of the Democrat party. Currently they are, and always have been pro socialism. Labor unions are about empowering the workers, bringing the pay scale of blue collars more in line with the white collars. The whole principle of equality when it comes to incomes is naked socialism. The quest to make everyone equal whether they deserve it or not.

When I was working in a union shop as a young man, that was an issue that bothered me. On one hand it was good for me, on the other hand I didn’t feel it was fair to the more experienced journeymen. I didn’t have anywhere near the experience of the older journeymen, but because I served my apprenticeship and became a full-fledged journeyman I hired in at the same wage as a 25 year veteran.

As I gained more experience, I dropped out of the union and started working in shops that would pay union scale with benefits, but would reward you for your extra effort. Workers in union shops rarely ever went the extra mile because there were no rewards. It was not uncommon for me to receive extra pay, plus perks like a company truck or a credit card to pay for my commuting expenses. I made more money and gained more management experience than I ever would have in a union shop.

Are you getting my point? Union shops are nothing but a scaled down version of what a socialist society is. Everyone is equal, so why put forth any extra effort when there are no rewards. I wanna be the best at what I do, and I damn sure want to be rewarded for it. Workers like me, are good for the company. Efficient and smart employees make the company more profitable. When the company benefits, you benefit. It the company doesn’t reward you, find one that does. You’re a free agent.

So, I think when you examine the people making all of the noise in the Democrat party, they are brainwashed morons. Their brains have been destroyed by communist educators, none of whom have ever had to fend for themselves in the open job market. They have poisoned the minds of thousands of youngsters that could have been hard working patriotic Americans, working to make America a better place for all. The big burning question is; why can’t they see the glaring example 90 miles south of Miami? The whole of Cuba is a hell hole and is the direct result of Communism.

LINDSAY CLANCY CIRCUS

This is not an isolated story by any means. This has happened numerous times in my lifetime. Fortunately, it doesn’t happen often, but when it does it always has the same effect on my mind. How can a parent kill their offspring? My late wife and I raised two daughters, and our mission 24 hours a day, 365 days a year was to protect them and keep them safe from all manner of harm.

You sometimes jokingly say “if that kid does that again, I’m gonna kill ’em”. Realistically, you wouldn’t do that in a million years. That said, you surmise that to actually kill a child (three) you would have to be totally insane. Turns out that isn’t the case. People can be totally sane, able to plan the killings, come up with very creative stories to blame someone else. They show no remorse and go to great lengths to defend their actions. In my mind, that’s not insanity, that’s pure evil.

When we think of an insane person, we imagine a person who acts incoherently, yells at passing cars, acts out at people for no apparent reason, sometimes doing great bodily harm and sometimes actually murdering another individual. The difference is that anyone that has come in contact with an insane person, knows what the person is capable of and steers clear of them. People like Lindsay Clancy, Corie Walsh, and others like them quietly harbor these thoughts and the people around them never imagine what is about to happen. Seemingly normal people suddenly do unthinkable things.

People tend to categorize behavioral problems. Using my description above, I see quite a lot of what I would term “crazy” folk around homeless encampments. Doing things like being down on “all fours” picking up imaginary things off the sidewalk. Standing on the curb yelling at passerby’s in foul language. Waving large sticks around in the air. I highly doubt anyone ever looked at Lindsay Clancy through that Lense.

There is definitely something amiss in that woman’s brain, as well as the others that have committed similar crimes. I think insanity is the wrong call entirely. She is not insane, she clearly knew what she was about to do was very wrong, yet she went through with it anyway. For that, she deserves at least life imprisonment. if not the death penalty.

AI HOOPLA AND POSTURING

This is a very interesting topic to me, and I know very little about it. What I know is that it’s obvious at this point in time, AI operates on known knowledge. It takes the known knowledge and manipulates it. Apparently, the data centers that are causing such controversy are simply housing this knowledge and making it available for people like ChatGPT, and Canva to use in their companies.

Here is what I think would be great. If AI collected all of the data available and then processed it to find real truth and discarded the rest. For example, something simple; there could be a100 different ways of doing a particular task. AI examined all of the data and said; all of the collected data combined says that this method would yield the best results for the least amount of money. How great would that be?

I think what is truly scary about AI is that it could manipulate data for political purposes which could cause mayhem in spades. It could actually bring down governments. It could make claims of false information and destroy age old religious institutions. It could become the sole provider of data and information, causing people rely on it and believe whatever claim AI made. It could become the all-knowing oracle, becoming the undisputed truth sayer. In essence it could replace God in people’s minds. I can see people begin to look at it as divinity.

To bring this AI conversation to a close, I think we are years away from AI being the holder of all knowledge. But even as I say that, Google amassed most of the world’s knowledge and even created the most comprehensive mapping the world has ever known in just a few years. So maybe, I’m underestimating the time frame. It may be happening faster than my little pea brain can comprehend.

Right now, as I write this, I use AI for all sorts of things in my life. The picture above, of the California house, was drawn by hand, by me, a plain pencil sketch. I fed it into AI and gave it final instructions regarding weather, time of day, colors, geography, even the types of plants. AI completed the task in minutes. A task that would have taken me days to complete, and it never would have looked that good. Right now, AI is great fun, a great tool for an artist to use to create beautiful projects. As long as it is used to enhance people’s lives and assist them in their chores, I’m perfectly OK with that. Somebody needs to erect some guardrails, but I sure as hell don’t trust the government to do that.

I’ll try to get back on the keyboard more often now as winter is closing in, and my outdoor activities are going to be curtailed by the Pacific Northwest rain. Thank you fo taking the time to read my stuff. I appreciate all of you for making this one of my best years of readership yet. God Bless all of you and the USA.

WHAT GHOULS LOOK LIKE IN THE MOVIES

WHAT GHOULS LOOK LIKE IN REAL LIFE.

I’m absolutely not an expert on psychology not even close, but my wife is. She has a master’s degree in forensic psychology, and she made a statement today that confirmed exactly what I have been thinking from the start. She said and I quote; “that woman was home alone with those kids all day, she could have killed them at anytime, but she chose to do it after her husband came home for the maximum impact. She wanted to punish the husband and the father of the children”. She wanted to kill herself in the process and punish him ever more, but sadly, she survived.

OK, I admit someone that commits an act of this type is a mental case, however, you are going to have a very difficult time convincing me that before, and while she was planning this heinous act, that she didn’t realize that what she was about to do was very, very wrong, and sick. But instead of stopping and reaching out for professional help, her selfishness and narcissism urged her on.

I will never believe that during this episode of violence that she didn’t once consider that what she was doing was very wrong and maybe she should abandon the idea. I think her idea was to inflict horrendous pain on everyone connected to the family then “off” herself, so she don’t have to suffer the consequences. I really think these people somehow think they will be able to see the pain and suffering even though they are themselves dead. Indeed, these people are mentally disturbed, I’m not disputing that, however they know right from wrong, they just choose to ignore it for totally selfish reasons.

In my opinion, the real tragedy here is the defense is going to blitz the jury with pscho mumbo jumbo, paint her as a victim, that she is legally insane, and completely hide the fact that she is a self-centered narcissist, willing to commit murder to satisfy her selfish desires.

My verdict: Guilty, 100%, Life in the slammer.

OUR PRECIOUS LITTLE TREVY PASSED THIS PAST SUNDAY. VERY SAD IN OUR HOUSE RIGHT NOW.

In 2021 we lost our second Schnauzer to old age. The first one died several years before with diabetes. Our Schnauzers went everywhere with us, on all of our road trips all over the western US. Schnauzers are great traveling companions. We decided we were not going to get another dog, so we could be free to travel without having to have the added responsibility.

In the spring of 2024, our dog groomer called and said she knew a couple in Palm Springs that needed to re-home their Wire Fox Terrier, a retired show dog. She asked if we would be interested. We would have to pay for his air fare to Oregon. They sent us pictures of Trevor and we were hooked. He was six years old when he came to live with us, full of life and mischief. We immediately fell in love with his quirky personality.

A few months ago, we noticed something was going on with his health. The vet looked him over, took some blood tests and diagnosed him with Cushing’s disease. Gave him one to three years to live. Well, he didn’t make it that far, we had to put him down on Sunday. Wow, I couldn’t believe how hard that was. It is going to be a long time before I get over that little guy greeting me for breakfast every morning. Sharing my cookie when I enjoy my evening coffee. Those little creatures fill your heart with joy, then break it when they depart this earth.

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS?

Where the hell are all of these strange looking and acting people coming from? I am 85 years old and I have seen more freaks in the last eight years than I have over the span of my entire lifetime. Not only do they look freaky, but they also say and do really freaky things. They don’t seem to have any concept of respect for others, especially your personal space. They have no respect for your opinions, if you don’t agree with them watch out, they start getting dangerous. They are like little spoiled brat children in adult bodies, a combination that can be unpleasant quickly.

Recently a grown in his man in his forties decided he was a woman and took on the appearance. First, let’s establish the fact this man is bonkers, it’s pretty rare even in these times for a forty year old man to just up and decide he’s going to be a woman. (Caitlin Jenner aside). Supposedly, a 10 year old boy, who was mentally handicapped mis-gendered this fool and the transwoman beat him to death.

I dropped by my local supermarket to pick up a few things a couple of days ago. I was astounded by the strange looking folks sharing the aisles. If they aren’t physically strange looking, they have crazy colored hair, tattoos, piercings, and really weird clothing. That doesn’t take into account numerous young pasty white girls barely dressed. Fifteen feet away from her is a Latino woman with skin tight knit pants and top leaving absolutely nothing to the imagination and everything jiggles when she walks like a water balloon. Virtually all women under the age of 25 are sporting at least $50 worth of make up so heavy it looks like a mask. Eyelashes over 1/2″ long, and showing as much cleavage as possible. They look like hookers fresh off the Sunset Strip.

We have reached the point now, where normally dressed folks, with natural colored hair and few or no tattoos at all, are the odd ones. People turn and watch them walk by wondering what kind of weirdo are they? Likely thinking they just saw a serial killer.

Dear friends, I am going to sign off and take care of a few other things before I retire for the evening. I think I have found the key to longevity. Schedule so many tasks it’s virtually impossible to do them all. But for heaven’s sake, don’t let your spouse see the list, that way you can quietly destroy it and no one will ever know. I fired my lawn guy, I thought he was lazy. He would buzz in and out in about 30 minutes. I thought what the hell, I can do that and save $150.00 a month. Dang, what he did in 30 minutes takes me most of the day. Another one of my spectacular executive decisions.

In keeping with my strange people watch, I think I will touch on the Democrat political candidates in my next blog. I saw a meme a few days ago that said while the Democrats were hyper focused on Donald Trump the socialists and other miscellaneous miscreants stole their party. But Chuckie boy says well that’s OK, the Democrats are a “big tent” party. So is Barnum and Bailey with very similar characters.

God bless all of you, stay safe, stay free. Boycott Muslim owned business, but you have to consider you have to be willing to do without 7-11 and most independent gas stations. Other than that, you should be OK.

CENTER – RIGHT PERSPECTIVE ON TODAY’S NEWS EVENTS AND POLITICAL HAPPENINGS.

The past eight days have been extremely intense. My office asked me to do a cost estimate for the steel in an eight-story assisted living center. Turns out that it is the largest estimate of my over 50 year career as a steel construction estimator. It was the perfect time for me to do this as the weather has been scorching hot and the air was filled with smoke from several forest fires. So, hunkering down in my air-conditioned office was a welcome assignment.

After spending all day on my computer and searching through construction plans the last thing I wanted to do was write. However, during this past ten days, some interesting news happened. So, I’m going to comment on some of them anyway even though they are a bit moldy.

HOW IN THE WORLD DID WE GET HERE???

I have embedded an episode from an old TV series from the 1950’s called “I led three lives”. It’s a story about an FBI agent that infiltrated the communist party in the US and became one of the top dogs. They were 30 minute episodes, and as a kid that hated “commies” I think I watched every single one of them. The series ran from 1953 to 1956. I was twelve years old when it first aired. I didn’t really think about it until today in 2026 how anti-communist I was at such an early age. As you can imagine, 73 years later my feelings are even stronger. I wouldn’t expect you to watch all of the old grainy kinescope recording, but I inserted it to heighten your awareness of how anti-communist the attitude was in that era. You may want to do your own research into this true story of espionage.

Obviously, the presence socialist / communists in our nation has existed for a very long time. There are stories about socialist communities springing up and then disappearing for decades. One of the most interesting ones happened in the Mojave desert in California.

“Sidetrack Adventures” just happens to be one of my favorite “adventure/travel” shows on YouTube. Steve is an excellent host and teacher of history. Take a look at his productions, I think you will enjoy them.

This particular experiment ultimately failed as all of them do. These communities are based on the idea that everyone works and produces and shares the fruits of their labors equally. Anyone that has been exposed to human beings for more than a few months know that they have an inherently nasty trait called greed. Even worse when that greed is coupled with laziness things start going south really fast. Even human beings tied together through blood lines don’t get along that well and famously kill each other quite often.

There is also another factor that doesn’t bode well. It’s called self-elected leaders. One of these characters always seems to rise to the top, and claim to be the “leader of the pack”. He is usually the lazy greedy one that wants the wealth without doing the hard labor. As these experiment age, widespread contempt grows, and the whole project is doomed.

Human beings have always gathered and formed communities. It is a natural thing to do for the mutual benefit of all. Protection from enemies, assistance from your neighbors if needed, and comfort knowing someone has your back. But and this is key, people also need to feel like individuals, have personal privacy, and earn their wages on their own, and build their own personal wealth. Property ownership is a major factor in human happiness. Communism isn’t going to provide all of those needs. In fact, communism kills incentives to grow and prosper. Why work harder, when the state takes the fruits of your labor and gives them away to others not willing to do the hard work.

The frustrating fact is that the Democrats have always leaned toward communism. Just the seemingly innocent act of handing out “participation trophies” and having a “no winners” policy in children’s athletics is really an intentional act of sowing the seeds of communism. There is nothing more constructive than the feeling that you dominated you opponent because you trained harder and worked harder. Likewise, there is nothing more constructive in being the loser, and wanting to win, and knowing it’s only going to happen if you work and train harder. Both circumstances produce better people.

We have unfortunately gotten to the point where we actually have avowed Marxists, Socialists, and Communists running for and holding political offices because of weak politicians and lawmakers, that don’t have the stomach for protecting our national values. We had strong leaders and patriots in the 1950’s that would have never allowed Zohran Mamdani to hold the mayoral office in NYC. They would have ridden Tim Walz out of town on a rail. do you think in your wildest imagination a Muslim would have remotely considered running for President? Guess what, one sneaked in right in front of your eyes. You may have even been so enamored that you voted for him. Barack Hussien Obama isn’t a name with commonly associated with Anglo heritage.

People, I think anyone can see, how this is getting out of hand and needs to be dealt with decisively if this Republic is going to survive. Islam and the West will never be compatible, Islam wants to bring down the US and will work to that end with great effort. The Patriots need to work with superior effort to rid the US of Islam and the threat of Sheria law getting even the smallest foothold on this precious soil. Britain, France and Germany have already lost that battle, don’t let the USA be next.

STAND STRONG, HONOR OUR FOREFATHERS AND OUR HERITAGE BY RIDDING OUR COUNTRY OF THE INVADERS.

CURRENT NEWS EVENTS AS VIEWED BY A CENTER RIGHT CONSERVATIVE PATRIOT

Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, I am working on a very large project that is due next Tuesday, so I couldn’t stop and watch the little rat appear before congress today. He literally reminds me of a rodent every time I see his sorry ass. Of course I am talking about the Democrats favorite man of science, Antony Fauci. He makes the term “dirt bag” sound a bit more endearing. In my opinion, you can’t get much lower than Antony Fauci.

My little brother died of Covid, leaving this world way too soon. They took him to the Columbia University Hospital, shoved a breathing tube down his throat and he was dead in less than three days. I don’t know for sure if they were even giving him any therapeutic medication, I think they just simply put him on a respirator and called it good.

Of course, when I see the little rat, I’m looking at my brother’s murderer. He and his slimeball associates are wholly responsible for unleashing the deadly virus on the world. As I saw some clips of his testimony today, if you can call it that, he still has that sanctimonious smirk on his face, knowing he is responsible for millions of human beings dying around the world, and he will likely never spend a single day of punishment for what he did. What kind of evil is that, how can a man carry that knowledge and not be consumed by his own conscience. The man must be totally soulless. In my opinion you can’t get much closer to Satan himself.

But, there is another facet to this story I want all of you to remember as you are given the opportunity to choose future leaders. He wasn’t in this alone. This is a very big story about the largest election fraud scheme the world has probably ever seen. The Democrat party was in this up to their necks with Fauci. He was their vessel to make it all happen, and he was more than willing to participate. I have written about this extensively, the magnitude of this conspiracy may never be known. It went from the city and state levels all the way to the top government offices. Bottom line here folks; when you have a political party that is willing to kill millions of people to win an election, that is evil on an unprecedented level. If you don’t think that’s possible, you haven’t looked at it close enough.

THE IRAN SITUATION GETS MORE UNCERTAIN AS WEEKS TURN INTO MONTHS

Sir Winston Churchill is one of my favorite historical figures. He was truly a visionary and saw the world through the Lense of reality. He was unafraid when it came to calling a spade and spade. A few examples below;

How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries, improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live.

A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement, the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.

Individual Muslims may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.

Sir Winston Churchill – from his writings titled “The River War”.

Islam creates cultures that are inherently violent with no respect for human rights whatsoever, especially women. Because they don’t allow any form of dissent or detractors (automatic execution) it forms a monolithic mental state which becomes extremely difficult to overcome. To overcome such a society, virtually everyone needs to be eradicated. It’s how you rid your home of insects. If a few are left behind, they reproduce and quickly become a threat once again. This is the secret to their power and longevity. I don’t believe it is possible to capture a Muslim nation and occupy it like we did in Japan and Germany after WW2. The percentage of true Muslims that could possibly be converted to Western ideology has to be extremely small.

This is precisely why we continue to destroy Iranian cities and military bases and they stand in defiance. They will never surrender until the last IRGC member is laid to rest. I praise President Trump for showing unmitigated strength in his quest to rid the world of a very dangerous nuclear threat. Why would anyone allow a band of maniacal religious zealots to be in possession of a weapon of mass destruction. Yet, every American president for the last 40 odd years has chosen to ignore the threat. I think you can safely say none of them had the foresight of Winston Churchill.

The United States should have assisted the Iranian people during the first uprising, the Mullahs were nowhere near as powerful at that point in time and all of this could have been avoided. Why do we keep electing week kneed people that make foreign policy.

We can only hope and pray for victory in this quest to keep nuclear weapons from the hands of maniacs. God Bless America and our President.
