THEY LIE, THEY CHEAT, THEY STEAL OUR HARD-EARNED MONEY !

They, are the Democrats. Trumps second term is flushing them out like rats. Like rats in a corner, they are trying desperately to defend themselves. But their graft and corruption is being exposed almost weekly. Corruption in government is present no matter where you are on the planet, but the Democrats have taken it to a new level in the United States.

My taxes are over the top. I have a nice home, not a mansion by any means, and a yearly income that could be categorized as slightly above the median level. Let just say, when I die, I won’t be leaving a fortune for my survivors to fight over. Over the years the feds have stripped away virtually all of the smaller taxpayer deductions such as interest on credit cards and personal debt. Since I no longer have any dependents other than my wife, and no home mortgage, tax time is a killer. It doesn’t help I live in Oregon which is one of the heaviest taxed states.

Think about this for a moment or two. There appears to be an abundance of money laying around for the fraudsters to glom onto, and the local governments don’t seem to be having difficulty funding day to day business. This leads me to believe we are being taxed far too much. The governments, federal down to the cities, should be the ones scraping for money not the taxpayers. There wouldn’t be any corruption and fraud if the government was constantly on the verge of bankruptcy. They would be paying one hell of a lot more attention to the dollars.

THE HOMELESS DEBACLE, MY PET PEEVE.

This problem has been going on for 40 or 50 years and it’s not getting any better. So, how can politicians continue to tell you with straight face, they are able to solve difficult problems. Politicians are the only people in the world that fail at their job in a spectacular fashion and get rehired for another term. Drive down the backstreets on any major city and you will find tents, lean-tos, old clapped out RV’s, piles of trash and garbage, syringes scattered about, and filth.

This seems like a very serious problem to me. My boss calls it “socio discrimination”. The governments allow the homeless to pollute on a horrific level, while fining people with money for seemingly minor infractions in comparison.

Why do cities allow this to go on in perpetuity? Because it’s a cash cow. Not being well versed in all of the available money programs, I asked Google;

Yes, cities receive federal dollars to address homelessness through various programs, primarily from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Funds are distributed through programs like the Continuum of Care (CoC), which supports local planning and homelessness services, and through block grants like the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and Emergency Solutions Grants. Other agencies like the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) also provide disaster-related relief funding for homeless populations.

Key federal programs for homelessness

Continuum of Care (CoC): This is a major source of funding, distributed to local CoCs to coordinate and fund a wide range of homelessness services, including permanent and transitional housing, case management, and homelessness prevention.
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG): This program provides funds to local governments for community development projects, including those that address housing and homelessness.
Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG): This program provides grants to help communities respond to homelessness, including funding for emergency shelters and street outreach.
Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8): This program provides rental assistance to low-income families and individuals, helping them secure and maintain housing.
HUD-VASH: This is a collaboration between HUD and the Department of Veterans Affairs that provides rental assistance to homeless veterans.
FEMA funding: During emergencies or disasters, FEMA provides funding to state and local governments to help the homeless population, such as through emergency shelter and other related services.

There is your answer as to why the homeless problem is likely not going away. An audit in California in 2019 could not account for 2.3 billion dollars. They had no idea what the money was spent on or track its effectiveness. I have a good idea where it went, how about you?

I asked Google about California’s infamous “Bullet Train”. This was the answer;

As of late 2024, California’s high-speed rail project has spent approximately $13.8 billion to $15 billion, out of a total projected cost that now ranges from $100 billion to $140 billion. The project has faced significant cost overruns, funding uncertainties, and has had federal funding revoked, though California is contesting this and has other funding commitments in place.

Current spending and cost

Total spent: Between $13.8 billion and $15 billion has been spent, according to various reports from 2024 and 2025.
Total projected cost: The projected cost for the full Phase 1 (Los Angeles to San Francisco) is now estimated to be between $100 billion and $140 billion, significantly higher than the initial $33 billion bond measure approved in 2008.
Initial segment cost: The cost for the 171-mile initial segment in the Central Valley is now estimated at up to $35 billion, exceeding the original estimate for the entire system.

Funding status and challenges

Federal funding: The federal government terminated approximately $4 billion in grant funding in mid-2025, citing concerns about the project’s management and timeline.
State funding: The project has received billions in state funding, and legislators have approved additional funding in the past.
Funding gap: A significant “unfunded gap” exists for the full system, estimated to be between $92.6 billion and $103.1 billion as of early 2024.
Current funding agreements: California is challenging the federal funding withdrawal and has new state funding agreements in place, though the long-term financial stability of the project is still a concern.

Gavin Newsome earns $242,295.00 per year as California’s governor. He just purchased a house in a very nice neighborhood on Sausalito for a reported nine million dollars. Chew on that for a while and see if it makes sense to you. I’m just saying, when there are billions of tax dollars floating around nobody can account for, I start getting suspicious when politicians buy multi-million-dollar homes.

I think it’s the proper time to quote Harry S. Truman (aka”give ’em hell Harry”) “Show me a man that got rich by being a politician, and I’ll show you a crook”.

In my next article, I’ll lay out my plan on how to solve the homeless blight on our beautiful cities.

WHAT ARE THESE PEOPLE THINKING, AND HOW ARE THEY GOING TO FIX IT?

Blue cities have been playing “footsies” with criminals old and young for a lot of years and it has reached a crescendo with young thugs taking over streets and neighborhoods, gangs ransacking jewelry stores and big box stores.

Why wouldn’t they engage in this sort of lawlessness? Local prosecutors rarely ever charge them and give them jail time. No bail, and back on the street doing business as usual.

There is no good reason why this idiot was on the street and not locked up. Weak kneed leftist judges keep turning these monsters back on the streets putting everyone’s life in jeopardy. Make no mistake, these crazy lunatics watch the news. This is the second attack on a young white woman by a black nutcase since the young Ukrainian woman was stabbed to death on the train by the first black nutcase. Commuting by public transit is becoming a death sentence for young white women.

OK, Florida could hardly be called a “blue state”, but it has one thing in common with a lot of blue states and cities; a very large population of blacks and Latinos. The two primary groups of rebel rousers that love to instigate this type of behavior. So how do you put a cap on this type activity? I don’t see anyone jumping up and down demanding that it has to stop. Almost every time one of these events take place, a few youngsters end up injured or killed. Full blown exhibitionism seems to be rampant among blacks, from street thugs to the NFL and NBA. Click on the link below for some great examples.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BQsSyMyV84

While victory celebrations on the football field may seem harmless, it is anything but harmless. Youngsters see this and can’t wait to do it themselves. This type of behavior escalates into other parts of their lives, and they begin to think they are somehow invincible until they are stopped dead by a bullet or beating. Lawlessness almost always ends up totally ruining someone’s life or the life of their family and friends.

THE DEMOCRATS TOTALLY OWN THIS!

Kamala Harris is just one example of Democrat leaders to openly call for violence in the streets. There is another clip of Maxine Watters doing the same thing at a public gathering in her home state. They love to perpetuate violence as a propaganda tool. They use the black community to do their dirty work, and the blacks are slowly waking up and realizing this, especially in Chicago.

The Democrat party has morphed into an evil force, willing to do almost anything to regain keep power. They are literally like a swarm of mad bees right now, attacking anything and anybody that they think poses a threat. This even includes those in their own party they feel aren’t vicious enough.

Voting and being active in politics has never been more important than now. Do whatever is within your power to move the needle in the right direction. Stay safe, stay vigilant, stay free.

THIS WILL MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER

Chicagoans are not happy with the huge influx of illegal aliens and it’s not looking good for Mayor Johnson and the Democrat party. People are fed up with the politicians that don’t respect the citizens that put them in office. The legacy media would have you believe that Mayor Johnson and Pritzker are representative of mainstream Chicago, turns out it’s not true.

HOW DO YOU DEAL WITH SOMEONE LIKE THIS????

THIS MAN IS A WALKING, LIVING, BULLSHIT DISPENSER

The blacks in Chicago are finally waking up to the fact that the Democrats have been using them for decades and in reality, don’t give a damn about them. The only thing Democrats are interested in is absolute complete power. They opened the borders to flood our nation with illegal immigrants for one reason, to expand their voting base and more congressional representation, turning their backs on black Americans. In the next video, a Republican from Texas, in a house of representatives judicial hearing tells you exactly what the Dems did. Pay close attention to the numbers they are shocking. I have to apologize for the long lead time in the beginning of the video, I have no way of editing it. You can click on the video and manually move the slide at the bottom of the screen.

I don’t think anyone with an ounce of common sense would disagree with me, saying that the Democrats literally became unhinged during the Obama years, and got worse in the succeeding years, reaching its peak in the Joe Biden years. The Democrats actually, openly broke the law, the worst example is throwing open the border for unmitigated illegal immigration. When you listened to the testimony of the Republican representative from Texas, he laid out how the Democrats structured the law, so that it would literally take years for these illegals to ever be brought before a judge, if ever.

We have truly lived through an important historical event with the American people pushing back against the Democrat tyranny, you know the ones that scream about “no kings”. Yep, those bald face lying hypocrites. Whatever you do, don’t hesitate to push back when you hear their lies and false accusations.

God bless each and everyone of you. Stay strong, stay vigilant, stay safe.

250 YEARS OF HISTORY IN A BUILDING

Separation of church and state is sort of a mixed bag of emotions for me. On one hand I strongly agree with that position. One the other hand, this nation was founded by Christians, and Christianity is woven into its DNA. That said, let’s be perfectly clear, the actions of this nation and its leaders have strayed away from Christian principles numerous times. I think you can say with certainty the United States government is far from being a Theocracy. Also, contrary to how some people think, the United States Government is not some form of Deity. The government is made up of people of all stripes, some very good, some very bad. A lot of “in betweeners”. Mostly, a pretty good cross section of the American populace.

Am I anti-government? Yes and no. I think the Federal government of today would shock the Founding Fathers. Today’s federal government represents a lot of what they were trying to escape. Individual state governments are worse. I happen to live in Oregon where the statehouse is dominated by Democrats. They trample on the citizens’ rights in ways that would infuriate any passionate Patriot. So, let’s move away from government worship in a positive way. I’m about as far away as you can get.

This brings me back to the point I wish to make regarding White House modifications. The building is an important historical landmark. It is not a Sacred shrine hallowed by divine figures or saints. It is a government building that has housed certainly less than divine politicians. I don’t think I need to go into details here. If you know anything about the life and times of certain presidents, you get the picture. So, if President Trump wants to add a much-needed ballroom, so what? It would certainly make me proud to see this magnificent addition, crafted in the true architectural style of the original building. The developer also has a track record of building very nice, beautiful structures.

SIDE NOTE: When I thought about what a truly sacred site would be, I could only come up with one; The tomb of Jesus Christ, where he arose from the dead.

IF YOU ATTEMPT TO TAKE SOMEBODY DOWN, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE MORE MONEY AND POWER THAN THEY DO.

A lot of people are realizing their actions were not well thought out when they tried taking down “The Donald”. We’ll see what happens, but Ms. Latitia James is feeling the heat from the feds right now, and it’s only going to get hotter. When she vowed to take down Donald Trump during her campaign that was a huge mistake in more ways than one. As a practicing attorney, she should have known better, but her ego and big mouth told her brain to sit down and be quiet. She followed through on her promises and selected a majorly partisan judge that she could count on the carry out her wishes. It became clear very soon that her real motives were to completely ruin Donald Trump, inflicting as much financial damage as humanly possible. Her and the judge, Arthur Engoron, made it very clear that this was a “hit job”. The charges were outrageous, and the fines and penalties were equally outrageous. This of course made it possible for a successful appeal, which made the whole exercise a waste of time. It did one thing however, it took Trump off the campaign trail, but that also backfired majorly, causing his popularity to skyrocket. It makes me think of the line spoken by Indiana Jones; “don’t bring a knife to a gunfight”. If James and Engoron had given more serious thought about their plans, they would have realized they were seriously outgunned.

Fanni Willis, another black female District Attorney with only 50% of a functioning brain, and an overactive sex drive. Hired a special prosecutor based on the size of his manhood and not his experience, immediately starts mixing business with pleasure, engaging in all sorts of nefarious activities at the same time. She built a house of cards that fell down around her ears and took out her boyfriend as well. She made poor old Nathan Wade look like a fool. This is a good lesson for people that climb to the top and crush others along the way. Those people you crushed are always waiting for you to fail and are ready to “share the dirt” the first chance they get.

Lying Adam Schiff and scumbag Eric Swalwell are now facing heat from the feds for mortgage fraud. The DOJ is going to make their lives a living hell and cost them boat loads of money for legal council. This is the way Democrats operate. They bring charges against you they know probably won’t result in a conviction, or a major fine, but they break you, paying for attorneys to defend yourself. This exactly what they did to General Michael Flynn. They brought erroneous charges against him and ruined him financially. Why? Because the Democrats hated him.

Oh, I forgot Jack Smith and James Comey. We’ll see where this goes in the next few months, but the DOJ is making a move on these guys right now. If I were Alvin Bragg, I would be making myself as invisible as possible right now. Keeping my big mouth shut.

DEMOCRAT SOCIALIST PARTY ?

Never underestimate the power and cunningness of Democrats. If you are paying attention to what is going on among younger folks, and listening to their complaints, you will understand why Democrats are moving farther left. People think the Democrats suffered a major loss by shutting down the government. I don’t think so. I think the Democrats wanted to see how the welfare recipients were going to react when their benefits were cut off.

It’s very important to remember, Democrats are not interested in the preservation of America as it was conceived, they are interested in power, because power and control equals wealth among the government officials and the DNC. If you can’t see that, you’re not paying attention.

Under the current system, youngsters are not able to achieve what their parents and grandparents achieved as property owners. From their viewpoint they will forever by renters. It is getting harder and harder to get a good paying job in spite of having college degrees. They have been brainwashed by college professors about the advantages of socialism (which are a myth). So young people that have grown up in a privileged lifestyle are finding it impossible to create that for themselves. Rather than using their brains and talents, they are looking for someone to give it to them, to get it the easy way.

The Democrats have keyed in on this and are moving to take advantage of the changing thought patterns of young, poor, college grads. They have been highly successful with blacks, locking them into an impoverished voting bloc, not able to wean themselves off of government welfare.

Pundits and talking heads are rambling on about the end of the Democrat party. It’s not the end of the party, it’s the beginning of brand-new strategy to reclaim power. The younger rebel rousers in the Democrat party have eyes on the House and Senate, making an attempt to oust the older lawmakers. So, hold on to your hats everyone, things are going to start getting very interesting.

CHANGE OF FOCUS. IT’S LONG OVERDUE

The focus of Presidential administrations has been on the middle east for about as long as I can remember. The last president that showed any interest in South America was Ronald Reagan, at least in my little pea brained memory. When you stop and think about that for more than 1.75 seconds, you realize it wasn’t really very smart. I think past presidents kind of blew it off, thinking who would mess with South America? We had a very loud wakeup call when Nikita decided to move in with Fidel. Nikita made a good decision; he was in over his head. Then as it usually happens, after that row settled down, it was quickly forgotten.

Then in total Democrat fashion, the peanut farmer thought it would be a great idea to hand the Panama Canal back to the Panamanians. Folks, it doesn’t get more stupid than that. That threw down the welcome mat for China to move in with them big, oversized skeeters. Russia has been prowling around Venezuela for a while now as well.

Now you totally understand why Donald Trump was moving like his hair was on fire to settle everything in the middle east. He needed to focus his attention on Venezuela, as well as Argentina. He and Pete and Marco pretty much have the Panama thing stabilized. Now it’s time to start pushing Russia and China out of South America.

The naval presence currently in the Caribbean is obviously much larger than required to take out a dozen or so drug boats, but that ain’t the point. It’s all about flexing the military muscles and sending a message that we are dead serious about not allowing our superpower advisories to gain a foothold in our back yard. Nope, we allowed that to happen once, and it almost ended up in a nuclear war. We need to stop that nonsense quickly. Thank you, Mr. Trump.

Last but not least, the Mexican cartels are watching this play out as the US military obliterates Venezuelan drug runners. Donald Trump made it clear last week this is going to start taking place on dry land very soon. I wouldn’t rule out Marines on the ground on the southern border, locked and loaded.

GOVERNMENT SHUT DOWN

This event has been getting daily wall to wall coverage. It has gone on long enough now that it is starting to be felt by the Democrat minions and they ain’t none too happy. So, I thought I would post this Matt Walsh video so you would know who you are sharing the planet with.

If this goes on much longer I would suggest shopping for groceries very early in the morning before these slugs are awake. Sleep well America.

NOT SURE WHAT IS GOING ON AS OF LATE

With virtually blanket coverage of events everywhere, posted on You Tube, X, Tik Tok, and hundreds of other social media platforms, its hard to put this into perspective. For the first time in history we are looking at the world through an electronic microscope. Every murder, kidnapping, hit and run, robbery, rape, fraud, you name it, we are seeing them almost as they happen.

Because of this relatively recent phenomenon, its hard to judge if the world is actually that much more dangerous, or are we just being made aware of something that has always been there but couldn’t see it. I live in a small town in comparison to a large urban area, so I rarely witness any criminal activity myself, but the local newspapers chronicle nefarious activities which in comparison to a large city are pretty minor.

Allow me to bring this into focus. Prior to Rudy Giuliani taking over as mayor of New York City in 1994, the city was out of control. Crime was absolutely “over the top”. Through heavy handed policing and harsh criminal penalties, he cleaned it up and made the streets safe again. Chicago has always been a crime ridden nightmare. Back in the thirties and forties, Los Angeles was notorious for gang activity. Look up “Zoot Suiters”.

AI Overview – copied from Google.com search engine

The history of “zoot-suiters” is tied to a distinctive 1940s fashion trend that grew into a symbol of rebellion and ethnic pride, particularly for Mexican Americans and African Americans. The trend sparked intense backlash, especially during World War II, due to the suits’ use of fabric, which was seen as unpatriotic. This led to the 1943 Zoot Suit Riots, a series of violent clashes between servicemen and civilians against zoot-suiters in Los Angeles.

Origins and cultural significance

The zoot suit originated in New York and Chicago in the late 1930s, adapted from the British “drape” suit and popularized by African American communities and jazz musicians.

It featured high-waisted, baggy pants that were pegged at the ankle and long, oversized jackets with wide lapels. For young Mexican American men in Los Angeles, the suit became a symbol of their “pachuco” subculture, representing a distinct identity and defiance of “Juan Crow” laws and discrimination. It was seen as a statement of style, swagger, and rebellion against societal norms and authority.

Wartime controversy and the Zoot Suit Riots

During World War II, the suits were criticized by the white press and servicemen as wasteful and unpatriotic because of the large amount of fabric they required.

Zoot-suiters were often accused of being draft dodgers. Tensions between servicemen and zoot-suiters, particularly Mexican American youth, boiled over in the summer of 1943. The Zoot Suit Riots occurred over several days in June 1943, during which mobs of servicemen and white civilians attacked zoot-suiters in Los Angeles. The violence, which went largely unchecked by police who often arrested the victims, highlighted deep-seated racial tensions and discrimination in American society.

Aftermath and legacy

The zoot suit riots are recognized as a significant event in Chicano history and racial unrest in the United States.

The legal convictions in the related Sleepy Lagoon murder case, which disproportionately targeted Mexican American youths, were eventually overturned, but the case fueled anti-Mexican American sentiment. The zoot suit has continued to reappear in popular culture, most notably during the Chicano Rights Movement in the 1960s and as a retro fashion in the 1990s.

WHAT’S DIFFERENT???

This is part speculation, and part opinion on my part. We still have the quintessential Mexican and Black gangs roaming the streets causing trouble, likely not going to change anytime soon. But thanks to our brilliant Democrat politicians who thought it would be a grand idea to let every low life criminal in the world take up residence in the good ol’ USA, we now have another problem. These so-called immigrants / asylum seekers came carrying the flags and banners of their home countries. These young men were coming to establish a “beach head,” to establish a new homeland, not to become Americans. Thus, they have no intention of obeying US laws and customs. Their lack of respect for women is manifesting itself in child molestation and rape. Because a lot of this is happening in the communities they have established, only a portion of these crimes ever gets punished.

Next, we have a potential disaster waiting to happen due to the growing number of Islamic immigrants. These people have their sites on conquering America. Don’t believe me? Look into it for yourselves. They have no desire to become Americans, that is 180 degrees opposed to their religious beliefs.

Beware of those who go to great lengths to make it sound like Islam is the religion of peace and call anyone that disagrees an “Islamaphobe”. If that were the case, the middle east would not be in a constant state of warfare. There are thousands of Muslims living in America who desire to live under Sharia law as opposed to the laws of the United States. If this is difficult for you to grasp, look at what is happening in England, France and Germany. Muslims are burning churches and Cathedrals in Europe, and raping European women and girls. This is not hearsay, look into for yourselves. You are not going to get the truth by looking for this information on Google, Wikipedia or other left leaning sites.

Google tries to water down this report, but reading between the lines, a lot of strife and stress is being caused simply by these people being who they are and unwilling to adapt to English laws and customs. They want England to be transformed into Syria or some other Muslim hell hole.

AI Overview

There is no official category of “Islamic crime” in England, as the country’s legal system addresses crimes based on secular law, not religious affiliation

. However, specific crimes in England have been committed by individuals motivated by interpretations of Islam. These include terrorist acts by Islamic extremists, so-called “honor”-based abuse, and vigilantism, such as the “Muslim Patrols”.

Terrorism related to Islamic extremism

The UK’s intelligence service, MI5, reported in 2023 that 75% of its counter-terrorism caseload was focused on Islamist threats.
The Counter Terrorism Police network also reported that in 2023, 80% of its live investigations were related to Islamist extremism.
Since the 2000s, most major terror attacks in the UK have been linked to Islamist extremism.
The government’s Prevent strategy, which aims to counter radicalization, has historically received a significant portion of its referrals for concerns related to Islamist extremism, though recent data indicates a more even split with right-wing radicalization.

“Honor”-based abuse and violence

“Honor”-based abuse (HBA) refers to violent or coercive behavior used to control individuals who are believed to have shamed their family or community. In the UK, it is estimated that one woman or girl is killed each month in the name of “honor”.
Such crimes can include forced marriage, female genital mutilation, and murder.
While not specific to any one religion, HBA in the UK is largely seen within certain South Asian and Middle Eastern families, with some cases linked to extremist interpretations of Islam.

Vigilantism and “Sharia patrols”

In the 2010s, groups of self-styled “Muslim patrols” operated in parts of East London, intimidating and harassing individuals for perceived violations of Islamic law.
Members of these patrols were filmed confronting people for drinking alcohol, dressing in certain ways, and other actions they deemed un-Islamic.
The individuals involved were arrested and prosecuted for their illegal actions. Their actions were condemned by the wider Muslim community and Islamic organizations, such as the East London Mosque.

Hate crimes against Muslims

Muslims are also disproportionately the victims of crime in England. According to Home Office data for the year ending March 2025, Muslims were the target in 45% of all religious hate crimes recorded by police, despite making up only a small fraction of the population.
Incidents of Islamophobia, including verbal abuse, vandalism, and physical attacks, have surged in recent years, often correlating with real-world events and inflammatory rhetoric.

Terrorism in the United Kingdom – WikipediaThe aftermath of the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103, which killed 270 people. It was the deadliest terrorist attack in UK Wikipedia

In my opinion, it’s getting harder and harder to get a true reading on what is happening, because the keepers of the facts are not reliable players. It’s likely to get even tougher with the gate keepers of truth not even being human beings. Everyone is going to have to be diligent in seeking out the real truth. But trust me, its going to get harder and harder. The reporters of truth will likely become targets of censorship or out and out banishment. The “No Kings” protestors are barking up the wrong tree.

God Bless you all. Stay safe and always seek the truth in all things.

WHITE PRIVILEGE???

Privilege, prerogative refer to a special advantage or right possessed by an individual or group. A privilege is a right or advantage gained by birth, social position, effort, or concession. It can have either legal or personal sanction: the privilege of paying half fare; the privilege of calling whenever one wishes.

I am qualified to write about this with absolute authority having lived for almost 85 years in the USA as a white Christian male. As a white teenager, my two friends and I were arrested and jailed overnight for driving through a small Oklahoma town at 2:00 am because we were in a bright colored car. The police said they had a report of a car matching the description that was involved in some type of disturbance. We were just coming home from hanging out at the lake swimming. We were released the next morning without charges. They just wanted us off the street. So much for white privilege.

A few years later, while driving my own car, my friend and I were going home after hanging out at a drive-in restaurant in downtown Tulsa. We lived on the west side of the river, and we were taking a shortcut through a very affluent neighborhood. The police pulled us over and said we matched the description of a couple of guys involved in a burglary. It was a bald-faced lie, they knew we were from the wrong side of town and wanted to harass us by threatening us with arrest and towing my car. I talked my way out of it, but the officers parting words were go back on your side of town and don’t come back. So much for white privilege.

Can’t remember catching a break because I was a white boy, I had to work all through high school to afford an old beater car. Working as a burger flipper in those days would get you about .65 an hour. Great money, it bought gas and a Saturday night at the drive-in movies. I bought used tires for my car, and found cleaver ways to steal beer. Yeah, so much for that white privilege thing.

I can tell you; we had real fear of law enforcement. They watched us close, if we messed up bad enough we were arrested, or at least received a traffic ticket and had to appear in court. Nobody cut us a break because we were white kids. What a joke. It was serious shit to steal; threshold amount for felony theft (grand larceny) was $20.00. Anything below that was classified as petty theft. We pretty much walked the line. My mother was tough as a boot, she told me if I found myself in Jail, I could figure out how to get out, because she didn’t have any criminals in her family, and wasn’t going to have any criminals in her family. I got the message.

WHITE PRIVILEGE IN SCHOOL??

You have to be joking!

WHITE PRIVILEGE IN THE WORKPLACE?

I officially entered the workforce for real in 1959. I would say that white privilege in the workplace was a real thing. However, when I think about it, it was a little more complicated than just privilege. Public schools had just been de-segregated, and blacks were not yet being integrated into the workforce. There were blacks working in the shop where I worked in janitorial positions. I worked in a Boilermakers Union shop, and the Tulsa local Boilermaker’s Union was 100% white in those days, as were most unions. All white folks in labor unions shouldn’t be a surprise; they were Democrat controlled.

A few years later when I moved to California, I switched to the Ironworkers Union, don’t remember any black union Ironworkers during those years. So, due to my chosen line of work, I can’t say I witnessed any white privilege. I do remember working with a black Ironworker in the seventies, we were both foremen. He worked in the shop next to mine, and we became good friends. Solid guy, hard worker. If you were a member of the Union and knew your craft, you were treated just like everyone else, regardless. Not a fan of Unions, but that is a definite advantage.

I have to insert a funny story at this point. Later in the nineties, I owned a steel shop in Washington state. My passion outside of work was British sportscars. I owned a Triumph TR7. I wore a jacket at work with a Union Jack on the left breast. One day a black weldor applied for a job and I hired him. After I hired him, he expressed his surprise that someone with a Confederate flag on their jacket would give him a job. He had no idea what a British flag looked like.

As a business owner and shop manager of several other steel shops, I didn’t care what color applicants were, I gave them a test related to their skills, if they passed I hired ’em. If they turned out to be duds, I fired ’em. No drama.

BLACK PRIVILEGE, IT’S REAL BABY

One of the largest driving forces behind the destructive culture of black Americans are white Americans with “white guilt”. What is it?

An indicator of limited reasoning capabilities.

The basic concept is guilt felt by white people for the historic mistreatment of non-white people from white people.

“I’m white. He’s white. He’s bad. Therefore I’m bad. I’m so sorry, please forgive me.”

This is foolish for multiple reasons: ]

Other people did it. Feeling guilty for other people’s actions does not make sense.
Other people were bad. There is no race of people that is pure. It is not just people that were white who did bad. If white guilt is a thing, then so should black guilt, oriental guilt, and so on.
There were good white people. If white guilt is legitimate, then so should white pride. Why is one racist and the other acceptable?
White people also mistreated each-other. France, Germany, England, all were at war with each other. England and Ireland had conflicts. Heck, Irish people and other Irish people, not too long ago. Are they victims or oppressors?

White guilt is something no one should go through. Sayed Hajaj answering the question “what is white guilt”.

So, you get it, it’s moronic whites repenting for racial sins they did not commit. No matter what race you are, you are not responsible for every bad thing your particular race did in the past. You are an individual person, only responsible for your own wrong doings. By the way, whites didn’t invent slavery although some participated in it.

So, why would a reasonably intelligent person feel this way? Because they were brainwashed by the American educational system. These are the same people that decry colonialism and constantly apologize to Native Americans for the Europeans stealing their land, which, by the way their ancestors stole hundreds of years before.

So instead of emphasizing education, nuclear families, and religion, the geniuses in our “fix everything mindset government” created endless “equal opportunity laws”, and “affirmative action”. Which by the way almost completely destroyed education, nuclear families, and religion in black families. However, it did the one thing the Democrats knew it would, it created a permanent voting bloc, and put the blacks back on the Democrat plantation.

The Democrats under Biden were well aware of how well that plan worked, so they wrapped up the same old crap and put a brand-new label on it called DEI. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Luckily, most people saw it for what it was, same bullshit, different packaging. Knowing it was going to be a bit of a hard sell, they invented two new phrases to flank it, “disinformation” and “misinformation”, and twisted the arms of the social media giants to go along with it.

The bottom line here folks is that the government has created a special class of people that are moved to the head of the line when they least deserve it, given lenient sentences for all sorts of crimes, including murder. Coddled, and patted on their asses so they don’t make a fuss, even while they are looting a high-end department store. Everyone turns their heads while they are shop lifting drug stores out of business. I’m going to wrap this us by showing you a Matt Walsh video that brings it all together.

Stay alert people, don’t fall for the same old B.S. in glossy new packaging. Remember, politicians never change and can never, ever be trusted.

CHARLIE KIRK’S ASSASSINATION HAS REVEALED A VERY UGLY FACTION OF YOUNG BLOOD THIRSTY PEOPLE.

Throughout my life, I have seen and been in the presence of a few young men and women that would make you a little nervous being in the same room with them. Watching them and hearing what they said would make you wonder what they were capable of. History is filled with examples of lawless young men and women. Fortunately, they made up a very small percentage of the general population. Since Charlie Kirk’s murder, a lot of dialog has taken place, and a lot of self examination has taken place of what we call our civilized society. It is becoming apparent, our society ain’t quite as civilized as we thought.

What is really disturbing is how many prominent people have made some really nasty comments, condoning the shooting, and the list is getting longer daily. Although it is somewhat comforting to see them fired, dismissed and cancelled, that doesn’t mean they have repented and come to their senses. Quite the opposite. A growing number of left leaning folks think it’s just fine to murder someone you don’t agree with. Forget debate, bring out the firearm and start blasting away. As a matter of fact, a poll that was just published, says that 25% of young liberals believe murder is the answer, don’t waste time with arguments, kill the bastards. Doesn’t that sound a bit like Fascism for real?

Some may disagree with this statement, but maybe, just maybe, murdering hundred of thousands of babies in the womb has played a part in normalizing murder. I’m pretty sure it was a contributing factor, if even a minor one. How about all of the Hollywood flicks when one side is getting revenge on the other, by mass slaughter. Yeah, I know the argument, it was the good guys killing the bad guys. Well, think about it; these youngsters have been brainwashed to the point that the “good guy vs. bad guy” thing is pretty convoluted in their little pea brains. They aren’t well versed on right and wrong.

Their educators (the people that parents trusted) filled their brains with all sorts of crazy shit about 200 genders, men could become women, women could be men, it was just fine to have sex with adults, cutting off their genitals was a glorious idea, and anyone that opposed this wonderful new way of life was a fascist nazi. What the hell they even had their own flag proudly displayed in the classroom, approved by the school, put there by their queer teacher. Of course, all of this was being done while the parents were at work trying pay for a home and food. These despicable people were mentally kidnapping your child. Your children came home every day, they didn’t look any different (at first), but their brains and their souls were being poisoned by the alphabet people and their sycophants.

There are hundreds of lessons to be learned here, but the window for the learning stuff has long since closed. People should have been paying more attention to what the leftist teachers were actually doing in the classrooms. The parents should have been approving the curriculum, not the board of education and the teacher’s unions. Teachers should have been vetted better, their backgrounds should have been investigated. I’m sorry, in my humble opinion, gays, lesbians and any other sexual deviants should not be in charge of underage people. Anyone that approves of drag queens performing in public schools should be fined, and forever banned from the educational system. We are attempting to create solid American citizens with good educations, not creating circus freaks.

HOW CAN YOU NOT ASSOCIATE THE DEMOCRAT PARTY WITH A SATANIC CULT?

That may sound a little harsh, or incendiary, but below is a list of what Democrats stand for and promote. I’m not making this stuff up.

Killing normal healthy babies in the womb
Condoning violence in opposition to the other party, burning down cities and towns.
Condoning street thugs like BLM and Antifa.
Promoting burning of Tesla cars to protest an opposing party.
Protecting illegal alien criminals by disrupting a federal law enforcement agency.
Failing to reign in the gang terror in American cities.
Allowing dangerous criminals to roam the streets through lenient legal systems.
Flooding our cities and states with unvetted illegal aliens overburdening our local governments.
Putting Covid infected homeless people in nursing homes killing old folks.
Forcing citizens to take untested experimental drugs, by threatening their livelyhood.
Allowing the homeless problem to go on and on, while stealing the money.
Allowing our beautiful cities to become third world shit holes.
Actually facilitating Islam to gain a foothold in our Predominately Christian nation while knowing from experience it will never work.
Allowing the public schools to make freaks out of our children.
Allowing ultra anti-American professors to teach in our colleges and universities.

I think the only way the Democrats hold on to power is by graft, and corruption of the voting system. Why would anyone in their right mind vote for these people. It’s obvious they hate the USA and what it stands for, otherwise why are they constantly trying to destroy it?

I could write on this subject until I fell over from exhaustion. People, we have to resist this evil nonsense. I can’t tell you how to do that, you will have to come up with your own tailormade plan. God Bless all of you and America. Maybe a good start would be to protest professional sports and tell them we only have one anthem. That would be a start.

THE ROT NEEDS TO BE EXCISED

The rot I am referring to is the prosecutors, judges, and attorney generals that condone criminal activity. As you may have noticed, I didn’t say “liberal” or “leftists” because I’m really not sure what kind of moniker to hang on these monsters. How the hell do you get your mind in such a state that you think it’s OK to release dangerous individuals back on the street with 10 or 20 arrests for violent crimes? In my mind, I see these so-called law enforcement officers as menaces to society, as much as the criminals they are protecting.

Human beings are endowed with three basic instincts, one of which is self-preservation. Allowing violent criminals to roam free among the general population, flies in the face of self-preservation. If you are one of these geniuses that subscribes to such an idiotic idea, how do you know you won’t fall victim to one of the animals you released on the public? That is the essence of stupid.

From the beginning of history, societies reasoned correctly that criminals needed to be locked away from the general populations. Granted, locking people away in prisons has been abused greatly by tyrants and unscrupulous government officials. The United States has a pretty good justice system, not perfect, but pretty reliable. You saw it put to the test several times in the past few years when unscrupulous officials tried to stop Donald Trump from being elected. That said, it’s probably the best the world has to offer. Back to the point, locking criminals up for an appropriate time for the crime, is a definite deterrent, it’s been proven again and again. In my opinion, I’m sure you agree, violent criminals need to be put away for one hell of a long time. If you take someone’s life, you need to pay for it with yours.

BLACKS ARE OUT OF CONTROL

This isn’t some boneheaded racist statement made by an old white guy. The FBI produces statistical reports on crime every year. Read one and see what is really going on. I have to warn you that the reports have been, let’s say, softened over the past few years so that they don’t look so scary. I know, I have been reading these and reporting on them since 2015 and the old reports were much more graphic and descriptive. I think I found some stats that are a more honest representation of reality. Click on link below for the real story.

https://www.quora.com/Which-is-higher-black-on-white-crime-or-white-on-white-crime

As I said above, I have been perusing these stats for several years, and I can tell you the FBI, and DOJ, and Google, and most other major internet platforms such as Yahoo, and MSN have deliberately become deceptive, bending and twisting facts to downplay the amount of crime committed by blacks. If you’re used to reading the FBI stats from 10 years ago, and you review them now, it’s very apparent what is going on. GASLIGHTING.

When you pair the propensity of violence by blacks, and the kid glove treatment for black criminals certain segments of this nation become very dangerous. Young black criminals have no regard for people of advanced age, or the handicapped or the very young. If you happen to get in their way, good luck. This is precisely why anyone that isn’t black should not be found anywhere near a Carnival Cruise, or a Disney Cruise. Even traveling by air is becoming a challenge.

I happen to be a person of advanced age, and in pretty good health. I’m in no hurry to leave this planet. That said, I’m certainly not able to defend myself by physical means, so I choose where I go carefully, and if it’s questionable I pack some heat. I don’t plan on going out this life beaten to death. So, If you think you’re going to pull me from my vehicle, I hope you’ve made peace with Jesus, because I’m going do everything in my power to help you meet him very shortly.

Back in the nineties, the Democrats and Republicans agreed that crime had to be reined in and all across this nation the so called “three strikes and you’re out” laws were enacted. If you were convicted of three felonies, they put you away for a long, long time. But alas, over the next twenty years the liberals kept chipping away at the law until it’s all but nullified. You are seeing the results of how the left views crime and leniency toward career criminals. When you compare crime stats of twenty years ago, we are decidedly going backwards when it comes to law and order.

ISLAMAPHOBIC? YEP, THAT’S ME.

Got no problems with Buddhism, Hindus, Judaism. Got a really big problem with Islam. Islam and the “West” are simply incompatible. Islam will never accept western culture and Christianity. They will strive to overtake the west by force, if necessary, as long as two Muslims are remaining alive on this earth. Islam is currently making a very obvious push to overtake large parts of Minnesota and Texas. Yep, you heard me right, Texas of all places. I am going to be writing more about this in my next blog, so stay tuned folks. I have a great article planned for you.
