Fat. Usually, a subject we would prefer to avoid. Some fat can be good, for it stores energy for our bodies. However, trans fat can suppress HDL (good) cholesterol levels which can be a very bad thing. Many of us may choose to cut off excessive fat from the turkey, chicken or beef we may cook but removing it all can affect the taste of the meat. Generally, some fat may be useful, but too much can be a very bad thing. When it comes to many of our bodies in the United States, when we look in a mirror standing sideways, we often become self-aware of our body image and can go to great efforts to re-image our bodies into the forms of Barbie or Ken. Doing so can lead to dangerous body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) or other eating disorders. More recently ads on our TV screens, laptops and cell phones have highlighted numerous ways to reduce body fat. We have seen the ads for pills, and even injections used to help reduce belly fat, nearly always disclosing in the fine print below the images that the product must be used in conjunction with proper diet and exercise. Duh! Thus, giving rise to the “couch potato” image. If you lay around and stuff your face with unhealthy foods, you might as well start sprouting potato leaves.

Our Nation certainly has a problem with obesity. According to the CDC, “. . . more than 2 in 5 U.S. adults have obesity.” “Obesity accounts for nearly $173 billion in medical expenditures in 2019 dollars.” “The prevalence of obesity among U.S. adults 20 and over was 41.9% during 2017 – March 2020. During the same time, the prevalence of severe obesity among U.S. adults was 9.2%. This means that more than 100 million adults have obesity, and more than 22 million adults have severe obesity.” “The prevalence of obesity increased from 30.5% in 1999 – 2000 to 41.9% in 2017 – March 2020. During the same time, the prevalence of severe obesity increased from 4.7% to 9.2%” (cdc.gov). The trend is not getting any better, for obesity in our youth increases as well. “One report in JAMA Pediatrics found that nearly one in three adolescents and teens has prediabetes and the rate among 12 to 19 year-olds more than doubled between 1999 – 2002 and 2015 – 2018, jumping 12 percent to 28 percent.” (diabetes.org.) We are glad to see that our new Secretary of Health and Human Services will be looking at ways to reverse these trends in our society by concentrating on those “forever chemicals” and other food additives that have continued to contribute to the obesity of many of our Nation’s citizens.

We are very concerned with the bodily health of many within our Nation, but we often fight against those who claim, “My Body, My Choice”. Those who love their big, fat, overweight, diabetic bodies. Some may eventually choose to use LIPOSUCTION to suck out unwanted fat beneath layers of belly skin, but without a change in eating and exercising habits, the change may only be temporary. There is another form of fat that inflicts our Nation. There is a fiscal fat that continues to build up within our National government. As a Nation, we have excessive fat being constantly exposed in our ever-growing National debt. For decades leaders have claimed to bring our Nation’s waste, fraud, and abuse under control, but for decades, they have all failed to see any significant progress to their professed goals. Many have become captive to lobbyist’s dangling money in front of their re-election funding coffers. It is too easy for congressional leaders to spend other people’s money, our tax dollars, without any personal accountability. And along came DOGE (Department Of Government Efficiency). It is about time that people, other than politicians, have been given the task to seek out in-efficient funding apparatuses. Intelligent businessmen and smart young computer experts have been set loose on our Nation’s fraud, waste, and abuse like bees on a honeycomb. But their efforts are trying to be thwarted by those who occupy government entities who act like the thick layers of skin over the fat that needs excising. For too long many of these individuals have personally thrived on the fattening sweets hidden by often secret dealings and kickbacks. They are defenders of the slimy, greedy, and in fact corrupt practices making money and power their god. They will do anything they can to keep their ability to continue feeding at the money trough, for money often means power.

What needs serious LIPOSUCTION? Medicaid, where millions if not billions are surreptitiously funneled to support illegal aliens, the lazy, and the fraudulent. The Department of Defense, where they haven’t been able to produce any kind of successful audit in years. Who knows where your tax dollars are wasted and abused. The Department of Education, where more money is spent on infrastructure and staffing supposedly to support student performance, but where results land us nearly at the bottom of student performance worldwide. Non-Governmental Organizations are formed out of more loopholes than Swiss cheese. The influence of big tech and monopolistic entities control their own fate through the destruction or consumption of their opposition, and they pull on the heartstrings of many politicians who are eager to receive their funding favor. Let us not again forget the large pharmaceuticals who spend billions for influence while keeping many within our Nation under their control through medicines and even jabs creating unhealthy dependence, an obese Nation, a sickly Nation.

It is long past time for WE THE PEOPLE to take control of our government to reestablish our FREEDOM and LIBERTY, to ensure its continuation once established at the founding of the greatest nation that has ever existed on the face of this earth. Shun the court challenges made only to shield the hidden fat. Reject the complaints of those who only seek their nefarious vein drip of fraudulent financial gain. Seek the truth. Speak the truth. Live the truth. Link arms with fellow patriots to finally put an end to waste, fraud, and abuse. Be proud once again of this Nation blessed by our Creator.

To be completely fair, the past President of the United States was not the only person to ever make that statement. Just so you know we are not fibbing, he said so on September 14, 2024, in his speech to the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation Phoenix Awards Dinner (presidency.ucsb.edu), although other occasions could be listed as well. We want to focus in on those two seemingly insignificant words and what they say to us. First, let’s lay some predicate. In our Nation we do have the FREEDOM and LIBERTY to prosper and achieve. If one sets their mind and body to a desired task at hand, nearly anything is possible within the confines of our Creator’s designs and our Nation’s laws. We would actually phrase it differently than by simply saying in our Nation you have “ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES”. Let us explain why we would express this opportunity differently.

“ENDLESS”. Would you please point to where “ENDLESS” is? When we say our universe is “ENDLESS”, could you point to the place where you could see it end? We live a life filled with finites. Minutes, hours, days, months and years all have endings. We place periods at the end of our sentences. When we plan a trip, we start at the beginning and end up at the end, wherever that may be. The seasons have endings, as do baseball innings, football quarters, and the last book you may have just finished reading. How motivated would you be if we told you to go run on a track endlessly, without ever stopping? Would you want to begin that task? We doubt it. “ENDLESS” doesn’t seem to offer much incentive to begin. Let’s look at the second word in our phrase above.

“POSSIBILITIES”. How much confidence would you place in any task if there were only the mere hope of a possible outcome? Would you ever start a trip if the destination were unknown? What if that trip had possible destinations that could be unproductive, harmful, or even life-ending. When you go to a restaurant, might you decide not to go if one of the potential “POSSIBILITIES” was that the food there was poison, or that there might be the chance of the roof caving in on you while you are eating? “POSSIBILITIES” leaves an awful lot to chance, increasing risk, and unknown and undesirable outcomes.

We cannot speak for you, but as for those in our circle of influence, we find the words “ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES” to be vague, pointless, and not worthy to spend effort or time in its pursuit. With no assured outcome, either in time or task, we feel most would forgo that “trip” and choose another method with greater finality, both in time and task. So, when the previous President of the United States claimed that you have “ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES”, what did you picture in your mind? Anything other than a nice grouping of two words? Were you motivated to proceed forward, given a direction to follow, and outcome to be achieved? Without specifics, you might as well just go walk on a treadmill . . . . continuously . . . . without end. We can think of better groupings of words that might provide a reason to begin and to achieve.

A President should give you hope of achieving something, with a definable path forward. How about “DETERMINATE SUCCESS”. A wall along our Nation’s southern border is being competed, and personnel have been retasked and repositioned to stem the tide of illegal aliens flooding into our Nation. Illegal alien criminals are being rounded up and are beginning to be sent back to where they came from. Fraud, abuse, and waste of our tax dollars are being revealed and eliminated, the first of several steps to stem the hemorrhage into our National debt. Our Nation’s hemispherical security has been brought more clearly into focus as our new Secretaries are active in this pursuit. Hostages are being returned to their loved ones. Girl’s sports are being siloed to only biological girls. Procedures and processes are being implemented to assure hiring and promotions are based on experience and competency, eschewing quota and other ideological requirements. The acknowledgement of our Creator and our need to humble ourselves in thanksgiving and praise to Him are being proclaimed from the highest authorities. Goals have been set forth, paths forward have been directed, and results are being witnessed.

We are not motivated in the least by being told of “ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES”. What does motivate us is when we see a President fulfill promises that have been made. When we can see the gold pot at the end of the rainbow, we are motivated to do our part to help resecure and protect our individual and National FREEDOM and LIBERTY, not just for ourselves, but for all those who may follow us in this life in this the greatest Nation that has ever existed on the face of the earth. Praise be to Him for His grace and mercy, and His Will being carried out now by many of those who are in control of the power levers within our Nation’s government.

“Equal justice under the law is a phrase engraved on the West Pediment, above the front entrance of the United States Supreme Court building in Washington D.C.” (Wikipedia.) We have often viewed Lady Justice as a blindfolded figure holding the scale of justice in one hand and a sword in the other. The pros and cons, the good and bad, the right and wrong, weighing the innocence or guilt, are measured with the scale. Should the scales tilt toward the guilty, the sword is meant to execute the judgement. Unfortunately, sometimes the scale is not balanced properly, and inappropriate weight is applied to one side of the scale or the other, and Lady Justice is not wearing a blindfold. The unrighteous, those with evil intentions, often without fear of retribution and with severed conscience, will manipulate the levers of justice, and pervert the law to achieve their ideological agendas. Under our Constitution and Bill of Rights, this nefarious process was never intended by our Founding Fathers to be pursued in obtaining “equal justice”. However, over the last several decades, “equal justice” has in many situations and in many ways become “unequal justice”.

Most of us when we enter a courtroom expect those officiating to be unbiased in their proceedings. However, the reality is that though certain men and women have put on the black robe of judgeship, they cannot and often do not take off their mental robe of ideology. Even if they can disengage from the social influences surrounding them, depending upon their ruling, they can be susceptible to scorn, ridicule and persecution should they rule outside local or ideological expectations. If they serve in an elected position, they can be voted out of office and lose income and prestige when ignoring outside influences. It is unfortunate, but often the scales of justice are skewed and unfairly weighted to favor the vocal minority or ideological bent of the judge or Justice.

The newly elected President, along with many in support, have been unfairly targeted in prosecutions. They have been judged in areas where juries of their “piers” do not exist and where judges who rule have been proven to be ideologically aligned with the opposition. Lady Justice has been unblindfolded and the scales she holds have been unequally weighted, and she is merciless when unfairly wielding her sword of judgement. Can any of this injustice be undone? It becomes more difficult when the outgoing occupant of the White House has thrown out “preemptive pardons”, like rice at a wedding, to those who have no convictions. This form of pardon has never been tested in court proceedings, but we anticipate they may eventually make their way to the Supreme Court of the United States of America. They are federal pardons so state prosecutions and even civil prosecutions could be pursued should investigations reveal unlawful actions. There are ramifications for a person receiving a pardon. Even though that person may not have committed any fraudulent action, the stain of potential wrongdoing will hover about them for the duration of their life and beyond. Should they be brought into a court or other official proceeding, they cannot plead the Fifth Amendment, which under normal circumstances would claim that anything they might say could be used in their own prosecution. They will have to tell the truth and be expected to be forthright in their testimony. But do not hold your breath for any revelations of wrongdoing or admissions of guilt. Here is why.

There are many ways an individual can avoid telling the truth and making any kind of revelation that could lead to their prosecution, or to the prosecution of any other. Have you ever heard someone in a court of law or official proceeding, having been sworn in to tell the truth, say “I do not remember”, or “I do not recall”, or “I have no recollection of that”, or even “I have no memory of that”? There are probably many other iterations of these phrases that will be memorized and used. When you hear these phrases made in the coming months, be reminded that these people were in charge of our Nation. Their recollections are like those suffering from dementia. They will plead ignorance in areas in which they alone were accountable. They will be doing this as another way of avoiding accountability or prosecution. And let us not forget that should they be found to testify in courtrooms or other official proceedings where ideological sympathies reside, it is unlikely any justice leading to conviction will be forthcoming.

Do not despair. We do not base our National and individual FREEDOM and LIBERTY upon the outcome of any one person or group of individuals in any court or official proceeding. We base our FREEDOM and LIBERTY upon our Constitution and Bill of Rights, and upon our “unalienable Rights” “endowed” by our “Creator” (reference our Declaration of Independence). Put your trust and hope in Him. Give Him the thanks and praise due Him. “Humble yourself in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up” (James 4:10).

We have addressed the issues with Dr. Anthony Fauci, previous head of the NIAID (National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases), in previous blogs. He has been far from trustworthy. In fact, he has lied, deceived, and orchestrated efforts to bypass government dictates, hide nefarious activities, all the while making himself the highest paid employee within our National government, even higher than the President of the United States salary. But our blog today is not about Tony, but rather it is about GOD.

We were highly encouraged as we watched the inauguration of our new President of the United States of America. We noticed that there was more time spent in reference to our GOD as there was about things political. The prayers, the songs, the speeches, the images, all obvious to even the casual observer that our Nation exists because of the founding principles used by our Founding Fathers and those PATRIOTS who followed them who placed their hope and trust in GOD.

If you walk the Mall in Washington, D.C., you cannot help but notice the plethora of carvings and inscriptions referencing our Almighty GOD, all screaming, though silently, to the truth, justice, authority and righteousness of our Creator. If you believe yourself to be isolated from GOD’s influence in your life, then we only ask you to do one simple thing. We all thrive, even simply survive, based upon our ability and privilege to acquire things we need to live. Check the picture below and see if you recognize it.

While it is true that many today use bank cards, doing much of your banking online, even avoiding the handling of cash, what your payments and transactions are based upon is the foundation of the United States currency, the DOLLAR. We so casually conduct our daily lives, usually void of any understanding of our Nation’s founding principles, that we have become desensitized to our GOD. We have seen a movement within the last several months toward the reclamation of our Nation’s dependency upon our GOD. Many have recognized our drift away from our Creator and have turned back toward Him, humbling ourselves, giving Him the praise and thanksgiving due Him. We believe He alone saved the newly elected President from assassination twice. While we do not believe the new President to be perfect and without sin, as we all are, we do believe that our GOD works His Will even through those of us who are flawed agents of His almighty plans.

If we treasure our FREEDOM and LIBERY, then we must turn our Nation’s attention back to GOD and ask that His face be turned back toward our Nation, and that He will do as He has already spoken, for His promises never fail. ” If My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves and pray, and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7:14.)

We really do not believe that being a PATRIOT is a bad thing, or something to be ashamed of, or afraid to proclaim out loud. If you are proud to be an American, a citizen of the greatest Nation that has ever existed on the face of this earth, then testing your knowledge about a few of the most important things that has taken place over the last four years will not be a huge challenge or something to fear. We will not be providing the answers, in fact we will only be giving you a few words for you to recall not just their definitions, but also how these words have impacted our Nation. Most of these words we have addressed in our many blogs over the last several years. As we approach the potential for a new “golden age”, and how the course of our Nation will be altered to bring not only prosperity to our citizens, but also wealth, safety, and dare we say a new lease upon FREEDOM and LIBERTY, let us all reflect upon our involvement and how we have and will continue to pursue the affirmation and protection of our Constitution and Bill of Rights. After we have provided our list below, reflect upon how many words you can firmly define. Following the list, we will conclude with a scale of how well you did, and how you rate as a true PATRIOT within our Nation. Here is the list of words, in no particular order:

Dark Enlightenment

Transgenderism

Shadow Banning

Throttling

Cancel Culture

Censorship

Oligarchy

Xenophobia

Misogyny

Proud Boys

Neo-Nazis

Nationalism

Globalism

Homophobia

Kristallnacht

Transhumanism

Singularity

Chatbot

Darien Gap

Cryptocurrency

Neuralink

Uyghurs

E Pluribus Unum

Exculpatory

Em banc

H-1B

DEI

BDS

Equity

Equality

WHO

WEF

CRT

Intersectionality

Overton Window

Myocarditis

Christendom

There is our list of 37 words. How do you think you did? Here is how we would rate your true PATRIOTISM:

If you were able to define and answer only 1 to 5 of our words, then you are living in isolation under a rock.

If you were able to define and answer 6 to 10 of our words, then you spend way too much time on social media and have been overly influenced by irrational ideologies, misrepresentations, and outright lies.

If you were able to define and answer 11 to 15 of our words, then there is hope for you to progress further in your knowledge of National and worldly affairs, and how elites and progressives have tainted our Nation.

If you were able to define and answer 16 to 20 of our words, then you are well on your way to becoming a true PATRIOT, only needing to further your independent study of National and worldly affairs.

If you were able to define and answer 21 to 25 of our words, then you are well informed about many of the issues facing our Nation and world today, and only need to continue to seek truth and justice.

If you were able to define and answer 26 to 30 of our worlds, then you have graduated from your “college” studies in National and world politics and now only need to enroll for your master’s degree.

If you were able to define and answer over 31 words, congratulations! You have a master’s degree in National and world politics and are now suited to defend and protect our Nation’s Constitution and Bill of Rights.

We hope you enjoyed taking our little test. Although we could have listed many more words, the ones given are sufficient enough for you to judge yourself on the level of PATRIOTISM you possess. Should you find yourself lacking, only a simple review of our many blogs will be necessary to achieve the full title of PATRIOT.

May God bless our Nation, and our new administration, with his Grace and Mercy as we humble ourselves in service to Him.

We previously had blogged about the Overton Window. In our November 19, 2023, blog post titled, “SECULARISM and the DISSOLUTON OF CHRISTENDOM meets THE OVERTON WINDOW”, we covered the basics. We also touched upon the OVERTON WINDOW on December 3, 2023, in our blog titled, “CASTING THE FIRST STONE”, and again on November 10, 2024, blog titled, “PEACE”. It is easy to understand how civilization has “progressed” through the many decades, even eons. No longer does the caveman in the cave over the hill come and drag off your woman by the hair after conquering you in a battle of clubs and stones. We do it now more sophistically with technology, bullets, bombs and missiles. One has to imagine if mankind has really ever “progressed”. Jealousy and the quest for power and wealth are as old as mankind. Only the tools used to achieve a desired purpose has changed. THE OVERTON WINDOW has shifted through the years allowing many to accept today what was once abhorrent. MODERNITY, or the belief that new ways are more preferred over the old ones, has given us with a shifted OVERTON WINDOW making things once despised, now adored. Generally, the “left”, seeking total control believing their ways of liberalism and secularism to be an advancement of society, has moved THE OVERTON WINDOW to the left leaving those who are more conservative, traditional, and spiritual, out of sync with what now wants to be called the “normal” society. As this has happened, those on the right are now called the far-right or alt-right, where we are viewed like the Amish as out of step with society’s “progression”.

Our blog last week was a warning, telling there will be ongoing efforts to frustrate, mitigate, obstruct, impede and even prevent the efforts of the newly elected administration from enacting changes in policies and procedures to stop and reverse the deterioration of our Nation, and the continued left progression of THE OVERTON WINDOW. However, there is change in the wind direction. A desire for a new “golden age” is being set before us as a goal worthy to be attained. There are shifts within our Nation, and in fact throughout the world, where THE OVERTON WINDOW may actually be shifting back more to the right, back toward the more conservative, traditional, and spiritual. In no particular order, we would like to reflect upon a few of these changes that indicate Reversing the left drift of THE OVERTON WINDOW.

Media, entertainment, and sports figures seem less restrained in showing their faith, calling for thanksgiving and supplication to our Creator. Those who volunteer to intervene to protect and save others from potential harm are overcoming threats, arrests, prosecutions and potential incarcerations. Even other nations are beginning to swing away from more socialist rule, voting in authorities who are more interested in nationalism than globalism. Large corporations and other entities are divesting themselves of DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) policies that seek not the most qualified for positions of authority, but only those who fill certain racial, sexual-orientation, and ideological quotas. Many of our Nation’s citizens are tired of watching employees having to train their foreign H-1B replacements, among other VISA holders, who will be paid less and who will be supplicants, who for fear of firing will gladly kneel to their employer overlords. Many within our Nation have had their eyes opened by listening to those “in charge” who spend more time thinking and speaking than working and building. Within the last week, we have witnessed the failures of state and local authorities who have championed soulless small fish and insects over human lives, property, and livelihoods. When water could have been saved over the last couple of years, the will of the voters was ignored while funds were redirected away from firefighting funds to the support of illegal aliens and the homeless. Those who have been put in charge of firefighters have often become those who are least able to fight fires or save the lives of the invalid and disabled. When warnings of the dangers of dried undergrowth in forested areas were ignored, those who claim a desire to save nature, have now watched much of it consumed in flames, along with human lives, property, and livelihoods. Congratulations to those who will now pay many times over the cost of rebuilding, “the pound of cure”, verses “the ounce of prevention.” We might also mention that while the current Los Angeles apocalypse is underway, FEMA, the Federal Emergency, Management Agency, has also funneled budgeted funds to support the effort to transport, house, and feed illegal aliens. Funds that should have been used to help those in East Palestine Ohio following the disastrous results of the fallacious burning of hazardous chemicals following the train derailment in February of 2023, and the over 230 lives lost, homes destroyed, and livelihoods crushed following the devastation in Tennesse, Georgia, and North Carolina following hurricane Helene, where funds again were fraudulently siphoned away from the support of our own Nation’s citizens. Their cries for restitution should not be obscured by the cries from those effected in the Los Angeles areas fires. All of these cries for support and assistance are helping to swing THE OVERTON WINDOW more to the right, where accountability and justice will prevail.

In addition, social media companies are now coming clean concerning having been pressured by the outgoing administration, and its ideological entities, to censure the FREEDOM of speech through shadow banning, throttling, and even out-right cancelling the voice of opposing viewpoints. And lest we forget the COVID-19 injections, more and more Americans are understanding the dangers of the mandated injections having decreased live birth rates and increased all death rates. Insurance actuaries have seen the rise in deaths accountable only to the implementation of the COVID-19 injections. Fruitless masking and lockdowns will be routinely rejected in the future as our citizens now realize the old saying is true, “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.” What President Reagan once said is ringing true to those citizens who are now having their eyes of understanding opened. “The nine most dangerous words in our Nation are: ‘I’m with the government, and I’m here to help’.”

Finally, but certainly not least of all, the newly elected President who has been the target of unrighteous lawfare, has revealed to a majority of the citizens within our Nation that there should be no room in our government for unbridled agencies and courts to use their unfettered weight to harm our own citizens, often using the claim of secrecy to protect their positions of authority and income from justice for fraudulent actions. Our Nation’s FREEDOM and LIBERTY are at stake. If THE OVERTON WINDOW does not continue to shift back to the right, toward what our Founding Father’s instituted in our Constitution and Bill of Rights, then our Nation will be lost, and our lives will end up in subjection to the power of other nations.

To clarify, the BDS we will be relating to has nothing to do with any musical group. It has to do with the “. . . movement [works] to end international support for Israel’s oppression of Palestinians and pressure Israel to comply with international law.” The movement was instigated to assist “The Palestinian people’s struggle for freedom, justice and equality.” (bdsmovement.net.) While the initial BDS movement was targeted at Israel, this effort to achieve the organizer’s objectives will be a model to be used to counter any efforts or attempted progress to be achieved by the newly elected President and his administration. We will name this movement differently, however. We will call the democrat effort RIDS, (Resist, Impede, Delay, Subvert). We shout a warning from a watchtower.

Similarly to the newly elected President’s first term in office, where during the first 100 days of his administration, leaks by retained staff occurred nearly every day, often attacking with a new revelation where each was used to breach the new administration’s plans, then the leak was twisted and perverted undermining the administration’s efforts, causing many efforts and plans to be delayed, altered, or even cancelled. The new RIDS will be used not against Israel, but against the incoming U.S. administration. How will this occur, you may ask?

Unless you monitor daily political activities, you would be unaware that many RIDS efforts are already underway. They have been underway ever since the election in November. The plans are already being made and implemented to Resist, Impede, and Delay the efforts of the incoming administration. Senate confirmations of incoming staff directors will be stretched out as long as possible by democrats, not just for weeks or months, but even for years for some nominees. Even some republicans resistant to the newly elected President will aid in these Delays. Court challenges will seem as common as sands on the seashore. The appeal processes, and injunctions to proceed, will Impede the new administration’s efforts to institute new programs, plans, and policies. To prevent government downsizing, and the dismissal of counter-ideological personnel, staffing changes are underway to move vulnerable personnel to union protected positions, retaining them to continue counter efforts to the incoming administration. This form of Subversion is hard to see, and even more difficult to extract. One can be assured that new efforts will be made to claim a need for impeachments. False claims will arise and be promulgated by sympathetic news organizations and individuals. This form of Subversion will bring doubt to the voting public and bring about conflict in many homes, cities, counties, and states throughout the Nation. This will breed protests, some even becoming violent and destructive. To add to this confusion, there will be on-going threats and actions of terrorisms, both home-grown and from international organizations and foreign nations.

In addition, pardons have been, and will be, given. Culpable written and electronic communications are and will be destroyed, even against legal dictates to retain this information. And do not underestimate the potential distraction created by rouge drones, other nations, and terrorist entities. For those who thought that a new, golden age will dawn upon our Nation, you need to brace for impact! The election in November was just winning the first conflict in a very long war to win back our Nation’s founding FREEDOM and LIBERTY. It has been eroded not simply over the last few years, but it has happened ever so slowly, minutely, since the 1930’s and the “New Deal”. Gird up your loins for an extended battle, for we fight not only among flesh and blood, but we fight “. . . against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” (Ephesians 6:12.)

Most United States citizens have no idea how many “VISAS” are made available to foreigners by the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Consular Affairs. Divided into two basic categories, Nonimmigrant and Immigrant, they are often specific to various countries and occupations. How many in each category you ask? Thirty-four for the former, and Seventeen for the latter, and many of those are divided into further categories, at least Ten of them in total. The current National discussion revolves around the H-1B VISAS under the Nonimmigrant Visa Categories. It specifically is defined for “Specialty occupations in fields requiring highly specialized knowledge” (travel.state.gov.). Here are our concerns over the bloated nature and the potentially fraudulent use of this program which directly impacts the generational citizens of our Nation.

For a moment, let’s look at some figures available on-line. Immigrant Categories increased every year over the last four years and totaled 1,582,019. Nonimmigrant Categories number totaled 24,008,740. These are not all “illegal” immigrants, and these numbers do not include all “illegal” immigrants, those who have escaped being encountered at our borders or who have even gone undetected, having violated our National laws concerning immigration. If these numbers do not raise your eyebrows, consider that during the COVID-19 pandemic, “. . . posts were instructed to suspend routine visa services and provide only mission critical and emergency services in late March 2020.” (travel.state.gov. “Immigrant and nonimmigrant visas issued at Foreign Service Posts: Fiscal Years 2019-2023.”) Where are all these “Posts”? Basically, all over the world at over 270 diplomatic missions. (U.S. Department of State.) Concerning just the H-1B VISAS, this is just the proverbial “tip of the iceberg”. Our immigration system is truly bloated, and highly susceptible to fraudulent interpretation and abuse.

At FREEDOMGOFORTH.COM, our allegiance is to our Lord first, and then to our Nation’s Constitution and Bill of Rights. When we suspect faults, on either side of the political aisle, we will call it out and tell you why. The newly elected President of the United States recently spoke of his desire to attach a “Green Card” to every foreign college graduate degree, making them legal to stay within our Nation to pursue work and careers. We disagree with this idea, and here are the reasons why. Until our Nation ensures that all of our generational citizens, of all races and creeds, have been given the opportunity to attend and succeed in university studies, we will resist allowing foreigners to unfairly achieve long-term social and economic positions with our Nation. Our Nation’s emphasis needs first to place emphasis on educating our own and elevating them to these positions. Our Nation has done a pathetic job of making this happen. We spend more time elevating our sports heroes and celebrities than we do making sure our children, one of the most valuable assets our Nation possesses, achieve. Shame on us!

Furthermore, for the vast majority, it was not the social elites or aristocrats who fought for and founded our Nation. They were the farmers, fishermen, fledgling shopkeepers, as well as “pipefitters” and “steamfitters” who gave their time, talents, and often times their very lives, and the lives of their prodigy, who did the heavy lifting to make this Nation the jewel of the world. They were the ones who drove westward and innovated within the framework of FREEDOM and LIBERTY. We resent the pathetic financial gestures by large entities and corporations who are now streaming to kiss the ring of the newly elected President, when only a few months earlier, they were the ones fighting against him. Their only goal is to retain their social and economic prowess and preserve for themselves positions of power and wealth.

And let us not forget that many of today’s colleges have been infiltrated with DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion). Colleges have not necessarily been inundated with the brightest and most qualified students. “Woke” agendas have diminished the quality graduates. Graduating in courses on social engineering, political science, and basket weaving, do little to advance our Nation’s technological and scientific world leadership. We do not demean our Nation’s native populations who developed the science and art of basket weaving, who developed works of art and function without the need for higher education or colleges. We will also hold in high esteem those who work in the trades, having shunned the push for college education, with its exorbitant costs and questionable value.

Our Nation needs immigration reform, especially in our open-door policy for foreign students, who in the past have often come back to lead groups to torment, terrorize and sometimes kill our generational citizens. First, do not let foreign students come, for their arrival only pads the deep pockets of the wealthy institutions. Secondly, if they do come, and if they are already here, send them home to the benefit of their own countries. We will not focus only on foreign students; all forms of VISAS need reform. Caps need to be lowered; qualifications need to rise. The reality is if we need the occasional Einstein or Heisenberg, you can be guaranteed our Nation will accomplish those acquisitions without the need for VISAS. Our FREEDOM and LIBERTY are not dependent upon foreigners. They are dependent upon generational citizens, those who have a heritage, a lineage, within our Nation’s borders. Those who have integrated fully into our Nation in culture and language, including those who witnessed personally the atrocities of egalitarianism, socialism, communism, and authoritarianism. Do not conform to those who seek only their personal benefit, but support those who fight for the downtrodden, the “deplorables”, the “garbage”, for they are “WE THE PEOPLE”.

“KEEP THE FAITH”. Faith in what? Faith in whom? Faith for what? Those are the questions that need to be answered. As we approach the celebration of one of the most important events in the history of mankind, we need to bring events in our lives, in our Nation, and in our world into proper focus. While our hope for life after death does not rest in the birth of a baby, but in an empty tomb, the empty tomb would have never happened if the former had not taken place. Where God became man and lived among us, took upon himself the sins of the world, being the perfect sacrifice for our sins, this alone has provided us the hope of life after death through our faith in Christ.

In our blog from last week, we referenced events in our Nation that have brought doubt upon our current National leaders. We have been lied to about drones, about the health of the current occupant of the White House, about government secrets that have been hidden from our citizens for years and decades to protect the nefarious and hold them harmless from justice. Faith in our current National leaders has been shaken by promises made and promised broken.

We have often referenced Holy Scripture as a guidepost to a better way to live, a better way to act, a better way to talk, a better way to secure faith and hope for life after physical death. We continue that theme today. If we were all angels, we would have no need for man’s laws. But we are not angels, and we struggle with evil within our Nation and world today, and how it infects our lives often in subtle ways, and how it tries to reshape our faith, whittle it down, make it weaker, and make us more susceptible to a loss of eternal hope.

When John the Baptist came preaching repentance, many came to hear him speak and to be baptized by him. Priests and Levites came to him, sent by the Pharisees, to inquire of his purpose and bona fides. They were weak in faith but strong in pomp and ceremony. They reveled in the attention and adoration from others. John was sharp with his criticism. He said, “You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Therefore bring forth fruits in keeping with repentance . . .” (Luke 3:7-8.) But they were not the only ones who needed refinements in their faith. John gave several examples following that statement, clarifications to the types of “fruit” needed. He also spoke to the common man, to the tax-gatherers, and even to the soldiers (verses 11-14). “Fruit” spoken of by John can be expressed in many ways, not just by the acts themselves, but more importantly by the internal attitudes that drive the “fruit” of repentance. Galatians 5: 22-23. “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience. kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control . . .”

As we approach Christmas, let us all be mindful of how dependent our faith is upon the “fruit” we bear. It is not just our FREEDOM and LIBERTY that depend upon our words and actions, but it is the FREEDOM and LIBERTY of all with whom we come in contact. Our faith will grow and will be manifested in the lives of others when we practice the application of our “fruit”. Maybe we can summarize it with one simple statement.

THE GREATEST GIFT IS ONE THAT CANNOT BE REPAID.

Over the last couple of weeks, DRONES have become a focal point within our Nation. One has to ask if this is truly the most important story within our Nation today. Or is our Nation being distracted by the “shinny object” diverting our attention away from something truly more serious and critical. Many within our Nation can be easily panicked by something we cannot define or understand. This leads to the potential for rash actions and certainly leads to the creation of conspiracy theories. For a Nation that put man on the moon some 55 years ago, to believe that our Nation has not developed more sophisticated aero and space vehicles is non-sensical. The question that really needs to be answered is “Why are the citizens within our Nation being kept in the dark”? First, a little knowledge about the operation of DRONES is required.

There is a difference between hobby DRONES and commercially operated DRONES. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has been developing rules for the operation of DRONES for several years. As of September 16, 2023, a Remote ID (IDentification) Rule has been in effect, although enforcement of the rule was delayed until March 16, 2024. Up until March 16, 2024, enforcement was discretionary. As of March 16, 2024, broadcast modules are either included on new DRONES or are required to be installed on older ones. The only exceptions are for DRONES weighing less than .55 pounds and used for recreational purposes. DRONES weighing over .55 pounds up to 55 pounds require these devices (Code of Federal Regulations, Title – 14, Chapter – I, Subchapter – F, Part 107). Manned DRONES weighing over 55 pounds are not covered by these restrictions, but certification is required. DRONES falling under this category can have certification waived under paragraph 44807, but only by the Secretary of Transportation. Has anybody asked him questions about these “new” DRONES? Only he can provide a waiver using “. . . a risk-based approach to determine whether an air worthiness certificate is necessary for a drone to safely fly in the national airspace.” (pilotinstitute.com.) Those are some of the facts, but there is more to pile into the equation about the operation of many of these seemingly nefarious DRONES.

Operation of DRONES are restricted as to how high and where they can fly. Manned “aircraft” are restricted to no lower than 500 feet over unpopulated areas, and 1,000 feet in populated areas. For unmanned DRONES, there are restrictions around airports in controlled airspaces, varying ” . . . between 0 feet (no flying allowed) to 400 feet . . .” (pilotinstitute.com.) Uncontrolled airspaces around airports are more liberal, allowing flights up to 400 feet AGL (Above Ground Level), but DRONES must remain clear of any and all other traffic. Well, enough about many of the facts concerning the operation of DRONES. What does all of this DRONES activity portend.

Many uncontrolled, unaccountable, often invisible entities exist within our National government. Those small groups are composed neither of elected nor appointed individuals but have often become so independent that they operate outside the scope of the current government, regardless of elected party. In some respects, those elected officials really do not know what is going on with these DRONES. If they do know of details, they dare not say because of the fear of revealing secrets that they believe could expose our Nation to worldly threats or reveal our Nation’s hidden powers. There are many dangers to hiding what our current National leaders know. We mentioned earlier about the potential for exploding conspiracies. But while many suspect we are being lied to by those currently in charge of our Nation, the greater fear is that we are losing faith in our leaders. This loss of faith has ramifications far beyond the subject of our current leaders or DRONES.

We have often mentioned in our blogs about how our Nation is in a spiritual war between good and evil. We have lost faith in many of our current National leaders, those who have said our border is secure, those who have claimed our economy is strong, those who have claimed that Russia must be destroyed, and those who have taken control of our own children in school, and to a society bent on taking over control from us in multiple facets of our FREEDOM and LIBERY. All of these things breed failing faith in other areas within our lives. Most importantly, if we lose faith in our Creator, we may lose our hope for eternal reward. Do not become overly focused on DRONES. We know there is more to this story than what we are being told. Be patient and be strong in the face of distractions pulling our attention away from things that truly matter in our physical, and more importantly, in our spiritual lives.
