TOXIC MASCULINITY?

We’ve come a long way from the days when the proverbial caveman would drag his woman back into the cave by her hair . . . . or have we? Male dominance has been prevalent throughout the ages. This dominance by males has been and continue to be largely due to testosterone. Males are typically bigger, stronger, and more reliant upon the testosterone innate in varying amounts to all human males. Fortunately, as the human species has evolved, so has decorum, respect, and a greater understanding of how each individual, regardless of gender, contributes to the collective being blessed with differing talents. Without this evolving wisdom through knowledge, we might still be back in the stone age. So, what is TOXIC MASCULINITY and how is this a problem in society today?

The current definition of TOXIC MASCULINITY as defined by Wikipedia is as follows: “Toxic masculinity is a set of certain male behaviors associated with harm to society and men themselves. Stereotypical aspects of traditional masculinity, such as social dominance, misogyny, and homophobia, can be considered “toxic” due in part to their promotion of violence, including sexual assault and domestic violence. Socialization of boys often normalizes violence, such as in the saying “boys will be boys” about bullying and aggression. Self-reliance and emotional repression are correlated with increased psychological problems in men such as depression, increased stress, and substance use disorders.” “Other traditionally masculine traits such as devotion to work, pride in excelling at sports, and providing for one’s family, are not considered to be “toxic”. Masculinity is not a bad thing. A taller, more masculine frame can ward off potential nighttime attackers. Strong hands can open a stuck jar lid and hold tightly to a lifesaving rope line. If something is toxic, that is not necessarily a bad thing. If you are killing bugs, harmful crop bacteria, or cancer, toxicity is the healer’s friend to make sure the destructive force is mitigated. TOXIC MASCULINITY is needed in kinetic warfare. Sometimes strength, aggression and a killer instinct is needed in order to obtain or maintain a nation’s FREEDOM and LIBERTY.

Old fashioned boxing use to be the primary form of entertainment pitting one strong, masculine, testosterone-filled man against another. The advent of venues such as the WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment), NXT (a brand of WWE), AEW (All Elite Wrestling), NJPW (New Japan Pro-Wrestling; a result of Sumo Wrestling, we don’t know), TNA (Total Non-stop Action), and AEW (All Elite Wrestling), among probably a host of others, have given rise to the worship of testosterone-emanating fight-club warriors. In the last decade plus, cage fights have become the rage, where just about anything goes. Most of us thought it cute and non-threatening when The Village People released their song, “Macho Man” in 1979, but some took it to heart. Randy Savage, a WWE professional wrestler, used it as his ring name. Movies are filled with “macho-like” personalities, like Jason Borne or James Bond (007). Video games for kids have been replete with scenes whose characters exhibit non-human testosterone-saturated acts. TV has become inundated with characters distributing copious amounts of testosterone-like behaviors, both inside and outside the law. Has TOXIC MASCULINITY reached its peak?

It seems like TOXIC MASCULINITY (read that as TOXIC TESTOSTERONE) has been around for quite a while. We are reminded of the 1998 movie “Lost in Space”, a remake from the original 1965-1968 CBS TV series with the same name. In the more recent movie, the scientist and wife of one of the two men arguing (one being her husband) had this to say, “Not another word. Better. Now if you’ve finished hosing down the decks with testosterone, I suggest you come with me. I may have found a way to get us off this planet.” A strong woman who didn’t need to throw around what little testosterone she may have had in order to get things done.

Recently in politics, we have noticed a disturbing trend among some candidates. The current occupant of the White House declared during the runup to the last presidential election that “If we were in high school, I’d take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him”. (CNN; March 21, 2018; Veronica Stracqualursi.) First of all, we are not sure that “the hell” can be beaten out of anybody. Secondly, hell is a place reserved for those to occupy after passing from this life into the next who have acted outside of societal norms, and more importantly, outside of God’s reign. More recently, another presidential candidate is making similar claims, strangely enough about the same individual, the last President of the United States, who is also a current candidate for the same office held just a few short years ago. The man making these claims is the once governor of New Jersey (2010-2018), Chris Christie. He recently said, “I’ll fight . . . anywhere he wants, in any arena he wants – whether it’s on a debate stage or in the octagon.” “The former New Jersey governor told Fox News host Piers Morgan in a recent interview that he would no doubt emerge victorious in a head-to-head fight with the former president.” “Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie says he’s ready to beat GOP opponent . . . – including in the ring.” “Come on,” Mr. Christie said with a smile in response to the question. “Guy is 78 years old. I’d kick his ass.” (The Washington Times; July 14, 2023; Ramsey Touchberry.) Recently, Mark Zuckerburg (founder of Facebook/META) and Elon Musk (of SpaceX fame, and the richest man in the world) also have been touting a hypothetical cage fight.

We have already documented in our blog series titled, TRANSPHOBIA, published April 3, 2022, through June 5, 2022, that the average male testosterone level has been dropping for years. We suspect much of what we are currently witnessing is a simple case of certain men compensating for what they lack. If one cannot do it, watch it. If one cannot exhibit it, talk about it as though you have it. False bravado only accentuates true weakness. We are reminded of a saying by Sun Tzu, a Chinese military general and strategist who wrote the book, The Art of War. In his book he said, “Tactics before strategy is the noise before defeat.” When this saying is applied to politicians who throw around “testosterone-like hyperbole”, it’s akin to “counting your chickens before they hatch”. It is like throwing mud on a wall to see what will stick, not realizing that you will have to clean up the mess, and to what would be the ultimate purpose of the endeavor, or the “strategy” anyway.

We are all flawed humans. TOXIC MASCULINITY is not the cause, the symptom, or the solution. These are simple words thrown around in a world that has lost its way. Too often our actions and words are toxic, and this only erodes our humanity as created by our Creator. We become respected and show moral character when we do not elevate ourselves by demeaning others. We have given away much of our Nation’s character in the last several years, and in the process have seen our LIBERTY and FREEDOM diminished. We will end this blog quoting from a familiar passage in the Bible, found in the book written by Luke, in the 14th chapter. Jesus is speaking. We will begin in verse 8.

“When you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, do not take the place of honor, lest someone more distinguished than you may have been invited by hm, and he who invited you both shall come and say to you, ‘Give place to this man,’ and then in disgrace you proceed to occupy the last place. But when you are invited, go and recline at the last place so that when the one who has invited you comes, he may say to you, ‘Friend, move up higher’; then you will have honor in the sight of all who are at the table with you. For everyone who exalts himself shall be humbled, and he who humbles himself shall be exalted.”

KOWTOW? What will be next?

We do not know if you were able to view the recent video of our Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, meeting China’s President Xi. If you did, did you notice how Xi stood still in one place as Blinken briskly walked over to Xi to shake his hand. Were you able to view our U. S. Treasury Secretary, Janet Yellen, as she walked off the plane upon her arrival in China. If you did, did you notice how she shook the first two gentlemen’s hands, nodding and bowing slightly as she shook their hands. Did it dawn on you that we, the United States of America, had to travel to China to meet, not the other way around? Did it dawn on you that the imagery is obvious to all who will take note? China, through these actions by our current government leaders, is declaring its nation as being the world’s predominant nation. Our current government leaders are showing our Nation to be supplicant to China.

KOWTOW. “In Sinospheric [East Asian] culture, the kowtow is the highest sign of reverence. It was widely used to show reverence for one’s elders, superiors, and especially the Emperor of China . . .” (Wikipedia.) To KOWTOW is the act of deep respect and supplication, often shown by commoners bowing to superiors.

Why is our Nation so willing to KOWTOW in so many different ways to the nation of China? There is a mountain of evidence growing against the current occupant of the White House. What will be next? Will it ever end? The current occupant of the White House has taken millions of dollars from China, the greatest threat to our National sovereignty, in apparent “pay-for-play” national policy actions. This is the greatest scandal in our Nation’s history. The latest whistleblower surfaces in a 14-minute video provided by The New York Post, Miranda Devine, July 5, 2023. You can find the entire video online. Below is only part of the article reference in the preceding sentence:

“The “missing witness” from the Biden corruption investigation, Israeli professor Dr. Gal Luft, has laid out his bribery allegations against the president’s family in an extraordinary video filmed in an undisclosed location while he’s on the run. 

In the 14-minute recording, obtained exclusively by The Post, the fugitive former Israeli army officer claims he was arrested in Cyprus to stop him from testifying to the House Oversight Committee that the Biden family received payments from individuals with alleged ties to Chinese military intelligence and that they had an FBI mole who shared classified information with their benefactors from the China-controlled energy company CEFC. 

The self-proclaimed fall guy says he provided the incriminating evidence to six officials from the FBI and the Department of Justice in a secret meeting in Brussels in March 2019 — but alleges that it was covered up.” 

“I, who volunteered to inform the US government about a potential security breach and about compromising information about a man vying to be the next president, am now being hunted by the very same people who I informed — and may have to live on the run for the rest of my life on the run …” 

“I’m not a Republican. I’m not a Democrat. I have no political motive or agenda … I did it out of deep concern that if the Bidens were to come to power, the country would be facing the same traumatic Russia collusion scandal — only this time with China. Sadly, because of the DOJ’s cover-up, this is exactly what happened …” 

Dr. Gal Luft
Israeli professor Dr. Gal Luft laid out his bribery allegations against President Biden’s family in an extraordinary video filmed in an undisclosed location while he’s on the run.

“Luft claims he was arrested in Cyprus to stop him from testifying to the House Oversight Committee that the Biden family received payments from individuals with alleged ties to Chinese military intelligence.”

“I warned the government about potential risk to the integrity of the 2020 elections … Ask yourself, who is the real criminal in this story?” 

“The House Oversight chairman, Republican James Comer, who was preparing to interview Luft before Luft disappeared, says the Israeli remains a “potential witness” in the Biden family probe, despite his fugitive status.” 

“It remains to be seen whether Luft is the man who will bring down the Bidens, but he is not going quietly into the sunset.”

“He is determined to tell the American public his version of the truth.” 

The center of our National government is obviously KOWTOWING to China in multiple ways. We sit idly by why China establishes a base of military operations in Cuba, 90 miles from our National shores, where it can launch biological and cyber ops against our Nation. We have aided China in its Belt and Road initiatives, allowing nations in our own hemisphere to cozy up to China’s “funding with conditions”, actions leading to the control of deep-water ports, infrastructure captures, and now the apparent escape from the dollar standard, one of our Nation’s most important assets. “In May of 2019, the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) principal propaganda outlet declared a “People’s War” against the United States – a fact that is unknown by most Americans. Unfortunately, this is hardly the only indications of CCP belligerence towards this country.” (presentdangerchina.org; August 17, 2022.) What did the current occupant of the White House do as soon as he took over the presidency, he ended the China Initiative, “. . . a national security program intended to thwart China’s intelligence activities in the US . . .” (cnn.com; February 24, 2022.) He has failed to pressure China to reveal the source of the COVID-19 pandemic and hold them accountable for the lives lost and the destruction of our booming economy in 2019. He has not expedited support to Taiwan in the face of China’s threat to consume that nation. He has allowed the invasion of many Chinese citizens, having intentions unknown, flowing across our southern border, being allowed to enter freely, while even providing them support and transportation, often through the use of government funded NGOs. He has allowed our Nation to remain dependent upon Chinese medications and ingredients. He is making our Nation more and more dependent upon China for batteries and their materials to quench his thirst for a “green” America. He allows most turbines and parts supplying his “green energy” to be manufactured in China. He allows China to financially support NGOs, buy our land, control food processing plants, and flood our institutions and corporations with Chinese citizens who are obligated to steal our intellectual property and National secrets. Is it any wonder why we blogged on December 4, 2022, “THE UNITED STATES OF CHINA”?

We are losing our Nation. It is being given away by ineptitude, corruption, and treason. Our great Nation, and those who represent it, should KOWTOW to no one or no nation, except only to our Savior and God in humble thanksgiving with supplication. If you treasure your FREEDOM and LIBERTY, then it is incumbent upon you to do something to retain and preserve our Constitution and Bill of Rights. If they are violated, those who do so MUST be held accountable and pay a heavy price. Without accountability, the erosion of our sacred documents will only continue, and before you know it, we will have not only lost our FREEDOM and LIBERTY for ourselves, but we will have lost it for all who follow us in life. What would those who occupy the graves of our National cemeteries say knowing they gave all for what we enjoy today, as we reside in uncaring indifference and inactivity, void of personal sacrifice and commitment to sacred patriotism?

THE MONROE DOCTRINE. A Relic of the Past?

“Squirl”. That’s the very comic reaction of a well-meaning dog in the hit movie “Up” (2009 Disney film). The dog (named “Dug”, a golden retriever) is easily distracted by an innate urge to chase a squirrel. Not unlike Dug, too many Americans are easily distracted by the new “shiny” new object. As our eyes are attracted to a flash of light at the corner of our view, so too are many in our Nation easily distracted by the hot new news item. It could be a lost submarine, the flash of open breasts on the White House lawn, the death of a long-incarcerated criminal, or even the weak indictment of a President’s son. When one takes one’s eye off the ball, you are likely to miss the catch, drop the ball, and could potentially lose the game, the series, the season, or even eventually lose the team. What does this have to do with THE MONROE DOCTRINE? Everything!

First, a review of what is THE MONROE DOCTINE. “The Monroe Doctrine is a United States foreign policy position that opposes European colonialism in the Western Hemisphere. It holds that any intervention in the political affairs of the Americas by foreign powers is a potentially hostile act against the United States.” “President James Monroe first articulated the doctrine on December 2, 1823, during his seventh annual State of the Union Address to Congress (though it would not be named after him until 1850).(Wikipedia.) Just revealed in the news within the last two weeks was the revelation that China is establishing a presence in Cuba. The worry is that it will become a CCP military base capable of conducting espionage activity, spying, eves-dropping, and hacking critical parts of our Nation’s infrastructure, including economic, political, and military assets, and lest we forget, a new potential location for the distribution of a biological weapon. The broad nature of this threat is called “unrestricted warfare.” “What’s a mother to do when a neighbor’s child comes into your yard, damages your property, and is a bad influence on your children?” Do you sit idly by, or do you take action to prevent the unwanted incursions? Our Nation’s history recalls the events of “The Cuban Missile Crisis” of 1962. The event brought our Nation and the Soviet Union to the brink of nuclear war. The Soviet Union intended to install nuclear weapons in Cuba, just 90 miles from the shores of the United States.

Of late, our National government has allowed an opposing nation to make inroads into our once sacred policy of THE MONROE DOCTRINE. What happened? When we peal back the veneer of the series of events in 1962, the actions of the Soviet Union were not really surprising. Our Nation had deployed nuclear weapons to Italy and Turkey, just a geographical “stone’s throw” from the Soviet Union. Fortunately, a catastrophic war was averted when the deployment of nuclear weapons never materialized in Cuba as our Nation withdrew our nuclear weapons from Italy and turkey (Wikipedia.org). We don’t often speak negatively of our Nation, but it was hypocritical of our Nation to have a doctrine telling nations to the east to remain clear of the west, while we in-turn chose to encroach upon them. The isolationist policies of our Nation were really cemented in the 1930’s, but the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 made it clear that isolation could never overcome the global reach of evolving technologies and nations.

We now live an era where “the cat is out of the bag”. Not only does it appear that we cannot catch the “cat”, but having a plan to put the “cat” back into “the bag” seems to be a policy furthest down on the current government’s list, lagging well behind the push for equity, concern for global warming, and the anti-fossil fuel movement. While our Nation speaks out of both sides of our mouth, we worry about the CCP incursions while talking tough about protecting Tiawan and funding a proxy war in Ukraine. “. . . the old imperial age is over. As America denounces spheres of influence abroad, it is more difficult to flaunt the Monroe Doctrine at home.” (CATO Institute, October 27, 2021; Doug Bandow.) The Western Hemisphere is already being captured by the CCP. Brazil and Venezuela have developed close economic and security ties with China (cfr.com). Panama, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, and Costa Rica have switched diplomatic recognition away from Taiwan to Beijing (americasquarterly.org). Plans are being developed to move those countries off the dollar standard, greatly diminishing the influence and power of the United States. “Today, China is South America’s top trading partner. In 2019, Chinese companies invested $12.8 billion in Latin America, up 16.5% from 2018, concentrating on regional infrastructure such as ports, roads, dams and railways.” “Already, 19 governments across Latin America and the Caribbean have joined XI Jinping’s signature Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), a $1 trillion transcontinental trade and infrastructure network.” (Time.com; Ciara Nugent/London and Charlie Campell/Beijing/ February 4, 2021.)

Ever hear the term, “Physician, heal thyself”? Do you not understand how our Nation has moved away from THE MONROE DOCTRINE, not simply worrying about how other nations are encroaching upon our Nation’s borders, or upon the Western Hemisphere, but how we have allowed this incursion within our own Nation’s borders. For decades, our greedy elite corporations have farmed out many of our Nation’s jobs to the cheapest bidder, to China’s slave labor, to enrich themselves by stuffing their proverbial pockets with immoral riches. We have allowed China to buy our land, food processing plants, and they have made our Nation dependent upon materials and products to support our current government leader’s thirst for “green energy” alternatives. Our Nation depends upon China for many of our drugs, and even the ingredients for many other medicines and products. Even as we write this blog, an unknown number of Chinese military-age men are flooding in across our borders, and their intent is unknown as well. Even worse, many of our Congress men and women have financial ties to China, and some have recently been alleged to have profited from bribes. One has to wonder, what does China receive in return of their investments. If you doubt the influence China has upon our consumer society, check out our blog titled, “THE UNITED STATES OF CHINA” (December 4, 2021). Even you, wittingly or unwittingly, have been a supporter of the China investment in our Nation through your insatiable desire for more stuff, regardless of who made it or from whence it came.

So, now what do we do as a Nation? Do we allow nations around us to continue to squeeze the United States until our Constitution and Bill of Rights finally implode, and we are consumed with those who despise us? Are there steps we can take and solutions available allowing us to defend and retain the FREEDOM and LIBERTY guaranteed to us by our Creator, and reflected in our Constitution and Bill of Rights? We’ll be frank. What took decades to develop will undoubtedly take years to unravel, but that is not a reason to give up hope and askew corrective efforts. Start with what you can do.

Recognize that when you by an item made in China, you are contributing to the potential demise of our Nation, so stop it! Teach and instruct your children the dangers of buying goods made in China. Encourage your extended family and friends, even your neighbors, of the dangerous path our Nation is on. Call and write your representatives in Congress and forcefully but respectfully make your demands for action. When you are given opportunity to vote, do so for those candidates who support reclaiming a free and prosperous United States. Recently a certain beer company, retailer, and sports team got into a downward financial spiral because of a woke ideology. Many Americans chose to shun the use of or purchase from these wayward entities. Eschew those media and investment conglomerates who act counter to our Nation’s best interests. When we act in concert, we have great power, and can make our choices quite clear to those who believe they are immune to the average consumer. Use your feet and your well-earned dollars to peacefully protest those agencies who favor profit and ideology over our Nation’s FREEDOM and LIBERTY. Understand that you, WE THE PEOPLE, have the power in our hands to effect change. Only then will we be able to say we have saved our FREEDOM and LIBERTY from those who would seek our destruction.

WHISTLEBLOWER TESTIMONY

What you need to know and share!

We are revealing in this blog post part of the actual transcript of the IRS Whistleblower concerning information about the fraudulent, illegal, and traitorous actions of Hunter Biden and his father, the current occupant of the White House. What we are printing, word for word, are only 5 out of the 212 pages of the entire transcript. It is important that every American reads this transcript to become aware of the corruption that infects the current leadership of our Nation. We urge everyone who reads this to share it with two other people, and to have them commit to share it with two other people as well. The ONLY way that citizens of our Nation will become informed is not through disclosure by our current government leaders, not through media, not through corporations, but only through your sharing. If you treasure your FREEDOM and LIBERTY, this is something EVERYONE can and should do. We have heard a lot of talk from the liberal side of our politics in the last few years telling us to believe Whistleblowers. It is time to take them up on their word and listen to those who actually have no axe to grind, only truth to tell. We will begin at the end of page 10. We will underline the important parts that are critical to understand the importance of the Whistleblowers testimony. The entire transcript can be found online.

(End of Page 10) I am alleging, with evidence, that DOJ provided preferential treatment,


(Page 11)
slow-walked the investigation, did nothing to avoid obvious conflicts of interest in this
investigation. I have absolutely no political activities in my past. I vote in the general election and recently voted in the midterms because of an interest in the process for my children, who I took to witness one of the pillars of this Nation, the right to vote.
I have never given a dollar to any campaign, never attended a campaign event at
any level of government, never had a campaign sign on my car, lawn, et cetera. I do not
own and have never owned a tee shirt or hat with any election topic. I vote for the
candidate, not the party. I have voted for Presidents with both an R and/or a D in front
of their names. I speak on this topic so I can try to head off time that might be spent on it. In the end, a fact is a fact, regardless of the political affiliation of the person who brought it to you. I am hoping the whistleblower process will allow me to give this protected
disclosure and leave it to you to make your determinations based on what my testimony
and the documents say about the investigation. I respect this institution and have faith that the issues I raise will be considered appropriately. I beg of you to protect me from the coming retaliatory storm. You are my only hope, and your actions send a message to all those out there that see wrongdoing but are terrified to bring it to light.
In this country, we believe in the rule of law, and that applies to everyone. There
is not a two-track justice system depending on who you are and who you’re connected to.
But the criminal tax investigation of Hunter Biden, led by the United States
Attorney’s Office for the District of Delaware, has been handled differently than any
investigation I’ve ever been a part of for the past 14 years of my IRS service.


(Page 12)
Some of the decisions seem to be influenced by politics. But whatever the
motivations, at every stage decisions were made that had the effect of benefiting the
subject of the investigation. These decisions included slow-walking investigative steps,
not allowing enforcement actions to be executed, limiting investigators’ line of
questioning for witnesses, misleading investigators on charging authority, delaying any
and all actions months before elections to ensure the investigation did not go overt well
before policy memorandum mandated the pause. These are just only a few examples.
The investigation into Hunter Biden, code name Sportsman, was first opened in
November 2018 as an offshoot of an investigation the IRS was conducting into a
foreign-based amateur online pornography platform. Special Agent
developed the investigative lead and was assigned to be the original case agent.
In October 2019, the FBI became aware that a repair shop had a laptop allegedly
belonging to Hunter Biden and that the laptop might contain evidence of a crime. The
FBI verified its authenticity in November of 2019 by matching the device number against
Hunter Biden’s Apple iCloud ID. When the FBI took possession of the device in December 2019, they notified the IRS that it likely contained evidence of tax crimes. Thus, Special Agent drafted an affidavit for a Title 26 search warrant, which a magistrate judge approved that month. In January 2020, I became the supervisor of the Sportsman case. The group, known as the International Tax and Financial Crimes group, or the ITFC, is comprised of 12 elite agents who were selected based on their experience and performance in the area of complex high-dollar international tax investigations. The IRS direct investigative team, including the co-case agent, case agent, and me, were working closely with the FBI and the Delaware U.S. Attorney’s Office and Department of Justice Tax in biweekly prosecution team meetings, or pros meetings.


(Page 13)
Yet, it soon became clear to me this case was being handled differently than any I’d seen
before. As early as March 6th, 2020, I sent a sensitive case report up through my chain of
command at IRS reporting that by mid-March the IRS would be ready to seek approval for
physical search warrants in California, Arkansas, New York, and Washington, D.C.
Special Agent drafted an April 1st, 2020, affidavit establishing probable
cause for these physical search warrants. We also planned to conduct approximately 15
contemporaneous interviews at that time. Yet, after former Vice President Joseph Biden became the presumptive Democratic nominee for President in early April 2020, career DOJ officials dragged their feet on the IRS taking these investigative steps.
By June 2020, those same career officials were already delaying overt investigative
actions. This was well before the typical 60- to 90-day period when DOJ would
historically stand down before an election. It was apparent that DOJ was purposely
slow-walking investigative actions in this matter. On a June 16th, 2020, call Special Agent and I had with our chain of command up to the Director of Field Operations, I pointed out that if normal procedures had been followed we already would have executed search warrants, conducted interviews, and served document requests. Nevertheless, my IRS chain of command decided we would defer to DOJ. Thus, I became the highest-ranking IRS CI leader to participate in our prosecution team calls, be up to date on specific case strategies, to discuss the investigation with DOJ and the Delaware U.S. Attorney’s Office, and to address concerns as they arose. From around October 2020 through October 2022, I was the IRS CI manager who interacted directly with the United States Attorney, David Weiss, and individuals at DOJ


(Page 14)
Tax Division the most. Even after investigative steps were denied, enforcement operations were rejected by DOJ, leading to the election in November 2020, we continued to obtain further leads in the Sportsman’s case and prepared for when we could go overt. For example, in August 2020, we got the results back from an iCloud search warrant. Unlike the laptop, these came to the investigative team from a third-party record keeper and included a set of messages. The messages included material we
clearly needed to follow up on. Nevertheless, prosecutors denied investigators’ requests to develop a strategy to look into the messages and denied investigators’ suggestion to obtain location information to see where the texts were sent from. For example, we obtained a July 30th, 2017, WhatsApp message from Hunter Biden to Henry Zhao, where Hunter Biden wrote: “I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight. And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.” Communications like these made it clear we needed to search the guest house at the Bidens’ Delaware residence where Hunter Biden stayed for a time. In a September 3rd, 2023 [2020], pros meeting, the Assistant United States Attorney, Lesley Wolf, told us there was more than enough probable cause for the
physical search warrant there, but the question was whether the juice was worth the
squeeze. She continued that optics were a driving factor in the decision on whether to


(Page 15)
execute a search warrant. She said a lot of evidence in our investigation would be found
in the guest house of former Vice President Biden, but said there is no way we will get
that approved. The prosecutors even wanted to remove Hunter Biden’s name from electronic search warrants, 2703(d) orders, and document requests. Special Agent said on the call he felt uncomfortable with removing the subject’s name from those documents just based on what might or might not be approved, as that seemed unethical. But his concerns were ignored. And Department of Justice Tax Line Attorney Jack Morgan said, doing it without Hunter Biden’s name would probably still get us, in quote, “most” of the data we sought. I have never been part of an investigation where only getting most of the data was considered sufficient. On September 3rd, 2020, the slow-walking of process continued when AUSA Wolf stated that a search warrant for the emails for Blue Star Strategies was being sat on by OEO. That’s the Department of Justice Office — actually, I’m sorry. I don’t know what it means, the acronym.
She indicated it would likely not get approved. This was a significant blow to the
Foreign Agents Registration Act piece of the investigation. On September 4th, 2020, Deputy Attorney General Donoghue issued a cease and desist of all overt investigative activities due to the coming election. AUSA Wolf made several odd statements, to include that DOJ was under fire and it was self-inflicted. She stated that DOJ needed to repair their reputation.”

Heed the statement made by the Democrat leader of the Senate. It is evident from this Whistleblowers testimony that the Whistleblower had no axe to grind, no dog in the fight, no political agenda other than seeking the truth, favoring no one, but wanting to apply the law equally without bias. What is even more shocking is that the current occupant of the White House has obviously been lying about his involvement in the “pay for play” scheme. Not only has he compromised our Nation’s integrity, but he has taken actions that conflict with his oath of office, all for the sake of the almighty dollars stuffed into his and his family’s corrupt, treasonous pockets. If you treasure the integrity of our Nation, it is incumbent upon each one of you to make your voices heard, to make “overt” the truth of the corruption within our White House, to all you know. Our Nation’s citizen’s FREEDOM and LIBERTY are at stake.

WHO IS IN CONTROL OF OUR NATION?

ANIMAL FARM INSURRECTION

We are going to do something we have not done before. Over the last two years we have blogged about many things. What astounds us is that so many of the things we have talked about in the past have remained as apropos today as they did when first written. In fact, sadly, we could just put a loop in our blog posts to keep repeating over and over again all the research we have done in creating each and every blog. Of late, we have noted even a more pronounced threat upon our Nation. It would seem many of the “alphabet” agencies have tried to usurp the Constitutional structure of power and control. Several agencies have baulked at being accountable to those bodies that have derived their power and authority from the Constitution and Bill of Rights. This has left us with a governmental structure that is out of balance, and out of step, with the original intent of our Founding Fathers. So, today, we tell one more time, the story of the ANIMAL FARM INSURRECTION (July 18, 2021). As the story is told once again, note that not only have the characters in the story remained the same, but note also that in comparison to what is happening within our Nation today, the level of insurrection has deepened its grip upon our Nation.

“Not long ago, there was this one farm, only one among many, but it had a uniqueness about it. Many of the other farms only had one type of animal, but this farm had many different kinds. Some lived mostly outside and had a lot of free reigns. Others were kept mostly inside, in smaller confined areas. What made this farm so special was that all the animals seemed to get along, each animal contributed to the success of the farm. Outside the barn the horses provided riding experiences, the cows gave milk, the sheep provided wool, and the goats kept the grasses and shrubs under control. Inside the barn, the chickens laid their eggs, the rabbits provided fur, and the peacocks provided beautiful feathers. The mice in the barn provided nothing for the benefit of the farm. They often ate the food of all the other animals, and left their droppings wherever they pleased, such was the nature of mice. The one trait that mice excelled in was that they were very cunning and devious. They usually worked under the cloak of darkness. The mice considered themselves to be the preeminent animal. They often spent their time watching over their realm from high above in the barn’s rafters. It would seem they had the best of everything . . . . . but they were not satisfied. They viewed the outside animals with disdain and deplored their ability to roam outside in the free range and wanted to look down on them from their lofty barn beams.

There had always been a structure set up, an organized process, to maintain a functioning, productive farm. All the animals got to choose who would be in the lead for a certain period of time. Things seemed to be going the way the mice preferred. They made sure that certain animals were demeaned by whispering and spreading falsehoods, and this allowed the mice to ensure those leading would always favor the mice. But something unexpected happened during one of the choosing processes. The animal favored by the mice to lead, was not chosen, but in fact, the worst of all animals was chosen to lead, a horse from the free-range pasture. The mice vowed that this would not stand, so a plan was hatched so the mice could reclaim their dominance. Before the horse could even begin to lead, the mice gathered together important animals from each of the barn groups. A plan to regain the leadership role was initiated that included eight layers, each layer following the one before. This would surely hamper the horse’s ability to lead, but it was hoped this would bring about a replacement leader even before the next choosing process.

The first step was to question the horse’s loyalty to the farm, claiming collusion with dangerous bears outside the farm’s fencing. For each of the first 100 days of the horse’s lead, falsehoods would be leaked each day by well-placed sources, claiming the horse had no loyalty to the farm, but was in fact a threat to the well-being of the farm and all farm animals. Drip by drip, the wildly concocted lies were leaked. Even though the horse continued to lead, the leadership effectiveness was greatly hampered. The second step was to take everything the horse whinnied and twist it around so that it would appear the horse was in cahoots with the wolves outside the farm fencing. Many began to doubt the leadership ability of the horse. The mice only smiled. The third step was for the mice to contact the gophers and moles under the cover of darkness. It was agreed that the gophers and moles would create many holes in the free-range pasture. This cause a number of the free-range animals to be injured when stepping into these holes. Fence posts were also brought down which allowed attacks by many bears and wolves. Because of the surge in holes and fence failures, animal leaders in the barn, and even some from the free-range, were able to convince all free-range animals to be brought into the barn and be isolated in their own stalls. Once this happened, the weeds and thorny bushes took over the free-range areas, and much of the areas outside the barn came into disrepair. Almost all of the farm animals became discouraged . . . . . except for the mice. This was their fourth layer of the plan, to create discontent. The fifth layer of the plan was put in place to add to the discontent. The peacocks were tasked by the mice to scream about all the unfairness. This was extremely effective, and it added to the stress of all the animals, as the peacocks honked and trumpeted. Fighting among the animals on the barn floor areas intensified, and some were even killed. Damage to the inside of the barn became evident, and only increased.

Soon, it was nearing time to choose a new leader, and so the sixth layer of the plan was put into motion. Without most of the farm animals knowing, with only a few aware of the plan, strange animals from outside the farm fences were secretly given the right to choose, and sometimes their choices were counted multiple times. Even animals who had already lived out their lives, somehow were enabled to choose, and not surprisingly, all of these choices were made in favor of, you guessed it, the chief mouse. Following the chief mouse being made leader, it was necessary to put into practice the seventh layer of the plan. That plan was to hide from all the farm animals all of the methods and procedures the mice, along with their cohorts, had used to swing the choice to their favor. No one would ever know what really happened, for the power of the mice, and those in league with them, had now achieved just what they wanted.

The freedom of all the animals to roam in the free-range, as they once had, was now gone. The mice were in control, and they could not care less about the condition of the farm, as the areas outside the barn were nearly unrecoverable, and even the interior of the barn was falling apart. There was still discontent with what had occurred, mostly from within the free-range animals, and an extensive search was begun to find out what was causing so much destruction at the farm. However, there was one final layer of the plan hatched by the mice. As part of the eighth layer of the plan, many false tales, accusations, and processes were inspired by the mice to counter the search for truth. Fighting again flared up, as had not been seen before. The destruction of the farm and its valuable products continued. The mice firmly believed this will surely now convince all animals to understand that only the mice can resolve their conflicts and bring prosperity to the farm. This is what the mice reasoned as they viewed from the rafters above the destruction spiraling out of control beneath them. They only pondered where they would get their next meal, stolen from any animal below.

This story will have an ending, but it will be up to the animals to decide. Will they choose FREEDOM and LIBERTY, or tyranny and subjugation?

The story is yours to finish. WHAT DO YOU CHOOSE?

Can you tell who the characters are in this story? Do you not understand that the very core of our Nation is under attack, that there are attempts on many fronts to change our Nation into something it was never intended to be? Values, morality, Christianity, traditions, family, parenting, justice, accountability, equality, and truth are all under attack. When will you get involved like never before in every possible way you can to restore and defend the greatest Nation that has ever existed on the face of this earth? We challenge each one of you to do your part. Our Nation is at stake. Our future is at stake. Our posterities lives are at stake. Will you be remembered as one who stood proudly and strongly to defend our FREEDOM and LIBERTY, or will you and your Nation be swept into the dustbin of failed peoples and nations?

WHO OR WHAT AM I ?

It’s time to put on your thinking caps. Your job in today’s blog is to try and guess in the next few of paragraphs WHO OR WHAT AM I ? I could be a person, or I could be a thing, or I could even be an idea. Good luck. May the best guesser win!

I am a red-blooded American just like many of you. Many would consider me to be the very center of what makes things tick. I reach deeply into the very sinews of the American life. When it comes to having one’s thumb on the very pulse of what makes an American, no one thing (or no one) can do it better than I can.

But life is tough. Many things can go wrong. As I have gotten older, I have become subject to more and more influences that have a direct impact upon my effectiveness at what I do, and have done, for so many years. In some respects, I have become weaker under the onslaught of so many threats that make my efforts at sustaining the way things were so difficult, that at times I simply want to give up and quit.

Ever since the beginning of my work, I have felt that I have only one purpose, and that is to maintain the way things were at the very start. I have worked tirelessly, under some of the most stressful and challenging circumstances. I have continually beat the odds of my survival, sometimes of my own strength, but also sometimes with the aid of outside forces that help to re-energize my sometimes-fainting spirit.

Of late, I fear my time is at hand to complete my mission in life. At times I feel as though that which once was ever-present, that which supported and sustained me, has become less available and when it is nearby, it has become less effective.

Where has my support gone? It seems to have been chased away into the shadows by opposing forces whose only aim is to see my destruction. From whence will come my salvation. Will anything arise to rekindle my once vibrant character? Have those opposing me finally beat me? Have I finally bled the last drop of blood in trying to save the America I once knew?

Have you figured out WHO OR WHAT I AM ? Here are some word clues found in the paragraphs above: Red Blooded, Tick, Sinews, Life, American, Pulse, Beat, Re-energize, Bled, and Blood. If you are still a little stumped, maybe the pictures below will help.

WHO OR WHAT AM I ?

I AM THE PATRIOT’S HEART

If you enjoy your FREEDOM and LIBERTY, then it is past time to rekindle YOUR PATRIOT’S HEART. Your Nation’s viability, and your posterity are depending upon your action.

ARE YOU READY TO WRITE YOUR CHECK?

Each month, year after year, citizens of our great Nation are expected, and dutifully respond, by paying all the debts owed on time and in full. Many will pay the debts owed using a check similar to the one shown above. For those who may have never written a check in your life, maybe because you use on-line banking and payments exclusively, the example above tells you what you would write on each and every line. The purpose of our blog today is to share THE SECRET which may have escaped many of you. You may have heard that our Nation is currently carrying a rather large debt that we as citizens must continually pay, not only the face value of the debt eventually, but we must pay interest on that debt as you would for any credit card you may hold that carries a balance from one month to the next. Now you may have regular bills that carry interest payments which you are personally accountable for, like maybe a car or mortgage payment, or as we mentioned in the previous sentence, the accrued balance on the unpaid portion of the debt on your one credit card, or maybe the debts on many of your credit cards. We are pretty sure you are aware of what may happen if you fail to make your required payments on your debts. Not only will your credit be trashed, but you could be evicted from your residence, or have your car repossessed, or be the subject of scrutiny from one of a multitude of credit collection agencies. This is not the preferable way of paying your bills, living beyond your means, and leaving yourself, and potentially your children, financially ruined. It does occasionally happen, and unfortunately many lives and livelihoods are destroyed each and every year from trying to live as a king or queen on a pauper’s salary.

It is now time for us to reveal THE SECRET that you, and potentially everyone else in your family, for which you are responsible. You did not sign any agreement for this debt. No one asked for your permission to add your name to the list of those accountable for payment of this debt. For the most part, no one has really even told you about it, and sadly enough, no one has even made an attempt at trying to figure out a way to resolve this growing debt. You are making payments, and you currently are making payments on the accrued interest, but sadly the amount of this debt grows larger and larger with each passing month. “How am I responsible for this debt”, you may ask, “and who signed my name making this debt a responsibility of mine?”

Surprise! You voted for representatives in Congress, both in the House of Representatives and the Senate, who have taken it upon themselves to assign this debt to you. You may be enjoying some of the benefits of this growing debt, but at some point, one has to pay the piper. So, get your pen and get ready to write a check to Uncle Sam for the amount of the debt for which you alone are accountable. Are you ready to write the amount? Do you think you have enough in your bank account to cover the bill? You had better check for cash under your mattress, or maybe it is finally time to look for all that loose change between the cushions on you couch or recliner.

We have a question you need to ask your Representatives. We are fairly confident that they will be unable to answer this question, and if they cannot, you need to be prepared to replace them in Congress with your next vote. Here is the question. “How many zeros in one Trillion Dollars?” Are you ready for the answer? Do you know the answer? If not, here is the answer. There are 12 zeros in one Trillion Dollars. One Thousand Dollars has 3 zeros. One Million Dollars has 6 zeros. One Billion Dollars has 9 zeros. Do you know how many Trillion Dollars our Nation is now in debt? Even most Congressmen and women will know this number, but like we said before, they have no idea how to reduce this growing number. In fact, thanks to a Congress that is adept at spending other people’s money, they will now be adding another 4 Trillion Dollars to the current amount over the next one and one-half years. The current debt our Nation is responsible for is 32.4 Trillion Dollars!

Let’s break down this rather very large number into something to which we can actually relate. First, let’s recognize that there are approximately 33 Million citizens in our Nation. Yes, it is true that more and more are being added each and every day due to the surge of illegal aliens crossing over our southern border, but they will not be accountable for paying any of this debt. The reason? Because they have no money, no job, and NGOs, mostly funded by our National Government and interests outside our Nation, are providing them with free phones, free transportation, and in many states, they will be receiving free education, free housing, free healthcare, and may even be getting free cash-cards to spend for food or other luxury items. Oh, by the way, some of your contributions to charities, and of course some of your tax dollars, are being used to support these folks.

Okay, now for the math part of our blog. Here THE SECRET is revealed. How much of this 32.4 Trillion Dollars are you responsible for? It’s easy, just divide,31.4 Trillion Dollars by 330 Million. The answer . . . . . . drum roll please . . . . . . Your share of the National debt is $95, 152.00. Can you now please write that number on your check. Oh, but before you do, remember that a large number of the 330 Million people in our Nation are below the age of 18, or maybe below the age of 30 and still live at home with nothing in their bank accounts from which to draw, so that means you are also responsible for making their portion of the payment as well. Approximately 22% of the Nation’s population is under the age of 18, so we’ll let you do the math on that one as to how much your portion of the National debt will increase. Without getting into statistics about the difference between “average” and “mean”, we will just state that each citizen has an “average” or “mean” net worth balance around $41,600, while the average bank account balance is around $5,300. So, what this means is that for a vast majority of citizens, you must not make any more payments for anything for over the next two years, and instead send any money you may be making directly to the IRS, Uncle Sam, so that we can pay off our National debt. You will not be able to pay any house, car, or credit card bills. You cannot buy gas, food, or pay any of your utility bills. Stop shopping at all stores, do not go to restaurants or burger joints, and no more paying for any services that currently make your life manageable. Can you do all that for us?

If not, what will you do to pay your share of our National debt? Maybe it is time to say “NO!” to our Congress! If they do not respond in a positive manner, it will be time to put responsible people in charge of our National Government. Our FREEDOM and LIBERTY as a Nation is at stake. Our children and grandchildren deserve more from us. They deserve responsible spending principles. They deserve the adults in the room to do the right thing and spend no more than we make. They deserve grownups to make wise, reasoned decisions when it comes to money and debt. What will you do to help put a stop to irresponsible spending by our current National Government?

“FOR UNTO WHOSOEVER MUCH IS GIVEN, OF HIM SHALL BE MUCH REQUIRED.” (Luke 12:48 KJV)

THE FAILURE OF BEDROOM CHRISTIANITY

Light is a marvelous thing. It draws our attention. It highlights things that need to be seen. It is faster than a speeding bullet, in fact it travels at the speed of 186,282 miles per second (in a vacuum). Our society would have a horrible time trying to live normal lives without the aid of light. There would be no driving in the dark, no movies at the theaters, and most of us would have to go to bed when the sun goes down, but wait, without light, there would be no sun to provide light, or a moon to reflect the suns light. Christmas decorations would be an absolute bore. Most of us have probably seen those wonderful, colorful Christmas displays on homes during the holidays. Some even had light choreographed to music, not unlike the one pictured above. But without light, none of this would exist. In fact, we would not exist, because unless you can live without eating, nothing would be available to eat. Have you ever been in the deep recesses of a cave and have the guide turn out the light? The darkness is oppressive. So why all the hullaballoo about the value of light? Well, we do have a point to make, but first let us consider the value of salt. Have you ever used it? Most recipes call for the use of salt, because it adds flavor to nearly everything to which it is applied. “Salt, also known as sodium chloride, is about 40% sodium and 60% chloride It flavors food and is used as a binder and stabilizer. It is also a food preservative as bacteria can’t thrive in the presence of a high amount of salt. The human body requires a small amount of sodium to conduct nerve impulses, contract and relax muscles, and maintain the proper balance of water and minerals.” (hsph.harvard.edu; T.H. Chan.) The human body cannot thrive without the presence of salt. Light and salt are vital for the continuation of the human race. But our task in our blog today is not to interfere with your “Biology 101” course of study. We have a completely different take on what “light” and “salt” mean to us in a different context.

For those who are Christians, or even those familiar with this faith, you are undoubtedly familiar with how the Biblical New Testament uses the words “light” and “salt”. Let’s do a quick review for those who may not be familiar. In the book of Matthew, chapter 5, we find probably one of the most important series of statements made by Jesus. It is known as the “Sermon on the Mount”. It begins with the very famous list of “beatitudes”, best describes as characteristics to pursue in life. Listed are attitudes to aspire to, or as one person once said, they are “Be” “Attitudes”. Immediately following the list of attitudes to have, Jesus has the following to say in verses 13 through 16. “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how will it be made salty again? It is good for nothing anymore, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do men light a lamp, and put it under the peck-measure, but on the lampstand; and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.” (NAS version.)

Now to the point of today’s blog. We really do mean to step on some toes today, and we will not apologize if it hurts or is uncomfortable for you. Sometimes we all need a two-by-four whacked up the side or our head to get our attention. We hope we have it. Many Christians are satisfied to live life in a religious bubble, mostly encountered on Sundays or maybe even a day or two during the week. Many are living a “BEDROOM CHRISTIANITY”, where we dare not speak what is on our hearts outside these four walls. During those times when you are with the “like-minded” you dis-associate yourselves from the world around you, and become pious, speaking only issues about your faith. In this cocoon of isolation, we all recognize our sinfulness, our need for constant healing, our need to improve ourselves, and the desire to share the Gospel message with those we may come in contact with during our “normal” daily lives. There is nothing wrong with these endeavors, we just happen to believe it is not enough. “What more might we do?”, you might ask. For decades the churches in our Nation, particularly those of conservative values, have been sold a bill of goods telling us that we had better not talk politics, because if we do, we could lose our tax-exempt status, or we might upset some visitors that walk in our doors, or we might be accused of preaching a “political gospel”, not a lot unlike “The Health and Wealth Gospel” we blogged about just last month. If you are a Christian, do you not understand your reason for living in this Nation at this time? Do you not recognize that YOU are the salt and light? YOU flavor the lives around you. YOU shed light upon the dark places, and YOUR light draws others to you and to God. Rick Warren wrote a book published in 2002 titled, The Purpose Driven Life. Have you not considered that God, the Creator of all, has placed you in this time and place for His Glory? What is your purpose? While we watch Satan encroach upon our children through phone apps, media, advertisements, wayward council members, representatives wooed by the promise of money and power, you silently sit in your pews, minding your “Ps” and “Qs”, considering that God is in charge, and all you may have to do is sit back and watch Him wreak havoc upon the ungodly. Have you not read the Old Testament Book of Esther, and do you not remember the story where Queen Esther has the power in her hand to spare the people of her nation from slaughter, when Mordecai said these words, “And who knows whether you have not attained royalty for such a time as this?” Do you not recognize that YOU are the change-agent God has placed in this Nation at this time? You can pray until you are blue in the face, but until you are ready to put your feet to your prayers, you are not fulfilling your purpose, and you must recognize that you will not only be held accountable for the actions you have taken, but you will also be held accountable for actions you have failed to take.

Look around you. Rome is on fire! If you enjoy our FREEDOM and LIBERTY in this Nation, it is time to pick up your firehose and do something about it! As we honor those this weekend who have sacrificed their lives for our Nation, may we be found worthy in their eyes to follow their example, to find our purpose, to fulfill our destiny, to fight back against tyranny, faithlessness, corruption, greed, and the father of all lies, Satan himself. It is way past time to get out of our “Bedroom Christianity”, and get in the fight for truth, honest, integrity, accountability, righteousness, and justice.

DISCONNECT

We have a “bone to pick” with a few voters out there. We selected the above picture simply as a representative view of what many election workers have to deal with each and every election day. We are speaking from personal experience and will attempt to shed some light on issues that election board workers must deal with in trying to resolve ballot issues that may arise in nearly every election. Are you complaining about how long it takes to get election results? Do you have any idea of what election board workers are faced with while attempting to come up with accurate vote counts and results? You may think that counting votes is a simple process, but unfortunately it is often compounded by some voter methods.

There are several facts that need to be explored. Some of them are obvious, and some are not. Some voters have a DISCONNECT either between their ears, or with reality, or maybe both. When the blank space on a ballot says “Write-in”, that does NOT mean to sign a name in cursive that only a professional signature verifier can resolve. For the most part, those signatures are the ONLY signature that a signature verifier has available to decipher. Unlike the signature verification process on the ballot envelopes, “Write-in” signatures will not have access to the other potential voter signatures to compare and resolve spelling, shape, size, and other technics used to read accurately a signature. Most election board workers only receive about two hours of instruction as to how to verify a voter signature. If you want to be a professional signature verifier, then you had better be ready to enroll in about a two-year course of instruction. You see one of the major challenges right away. Ballot signature verifiers are for the most part neophytes to signature verification. It is true that if a person has done it for several years, even with limited instruction, one does get better at the process each progressive year, but this is the exception, not the rule. So, please PRINT the name of the “Write-in” candidate.

If you are 18 years of age and are making your first foray into the voting world, you may want to sign a name without ever having had the proper education in cursive writing. So, don’t bother signing a name. Please just PRINT the name. It is a fact that most young voters do not really finalize their formal signature until their mid-twenties. Anything signed until then is basically just a new experiment. Election board workers are not mind readers, and it is not their job to follow your evolving signature style.

Finally, voting is not a joke! It is a demonstration of the FREEDOM and LIBERTY we enjoy in this great Nation. It is sad that many choose to not vote. In choosing not to vote, you are throwing away your right to complain about results. Some elections may see 80% turnouts, but those are the exceptions. Many local elections may only see a 25% turnout on issues directly affecting how your local community functions. Fire, water, and school district board votes have a direct impact on livability standards within your community. Local bond issues have the potential to provide advancements and improvements in the performance of policing and emergency services. Some day you may need those services that may not be approved, and you may suffer the consequences. Some issues may be pushed by a minority within your community and may not be something worthy or in line with the wishes of the majority. Failure to vote can leave you with a burden you did not want and could impact generations to come.

When those on an election board see “Write-ins”, like the one in the example above, they are dismayed in the disrespectful and infantile display some voters show to our Nation’s voting process. Not only are you proving yourself to be the jerk you really are, but you are burdening the election board workers with additional work to clean up the mess you made on isle two. Election board workers are obligated to record those childish votes even though we all know they are spurious. There are other ways that silly voters can mess up the voting system, causing election board worker consternation and frustration, sometimes even fouling up the sorting and tabulation of ballot machines and processes, but we will not name them as there is always the potential of arming nefarious actors with new schemes and devious methods. Unless your real name is “Micky Mouse”, he will NEVER be awarded a victory, so stop your infantile gestures, and take voting seriously! Grow up and be a responsible voter. Our Nation is dependent upon you so that we can improve our Nation and retain our FREEDOM and LIBERTY we are so fortunate to enjoy, not only for ourselves, but for our posterity as well. Thank you for letting us “pick a bone” with a few voters out there.

THE VIRTUOUS WOMAN. Fact or Fiction?

We will start our blog today by stating the obvious. It takes a woman to be a mother. Some might want to argue with us about connecting the word “mother” with the word “woman”, but that is a topic for another time. Some might baulk at us using the word “VIRTUOUS”. However, we believe this to be the ultimate pinnacle of success when it comes to being the best a woman can aspire to become. Merriam-Webster defines the word “VIRTUOUS” as “honorable, ethical, honest, nice, true, good, moral, noble.” It would seem a lofty goal indeed to aspire to inculcate these attributes into one’s character. Already, we can begin to see cracks and flaws in many women within our Nation. Lest we claim to be perfect, which we are not, we understand that attaining the purest sense of each of these attributes is difficult, if not impossible, for the duration of one’s life. The word “VIRTUOUS” does not, by itself, establish the core of our blog today. We also aim to connect the word “WOMAN” to “VIRTUOUS”. The reason we are drawn to this topic is because today we celebrate our mothers by wishing them all a very HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY. If you are alive, then you have or had a mother. You should be thankful to your mother for if she had aborted you, you would not be in existence. Let us state that again, especially for all those who desire to terminate pregnancies in the womb. If you are marching under the drum beat of “freedom of choice” when it comes to pregnancies, had it not been for your mother deciding against abortion, YOU WOULD NOT EXIST! Now, everyone who is alive can extend our thanks to our mothers regardless of any convergent or divergent relationship that has taken place through the years between you and your mother.

So, is being a “mother” such a great thing? Some might argue that a “VIRTUOUS WOMAN” does not really exist in today’s world. Maybe at one point it did, but as it is with all fading glories, the “VIRTUOUS WOMAN” became history, and maybe over time turned into legend, and ultimately as the ages roll on by, has become accepted only as myth. In our society today it is plain to see that the value a mother holds has been diminishing. We will not blame this alone on the mother, for unless you are an absolute moron, you will understand that it takes the seed of a man (loosely translated as a “father”), to make another human life. Many “fathers” have become absent in the nurturing years of a child’s life. Some women choose to bypass a “father’s” involvement all together by utilizing sperm donor clinics. The absolute denial that both mother and father bring important roles in the rearing of a child often leaves the child missing certain examples suited to a holistic development. The mother may emphasize faith, love, and a nurturing spirit, while the father may emphasize discipline, responsibility, strength, and protection. We are not saying that these qualities belong only to one sex but not the other, but we are stating that each sex brings something to the table of value in the development of a growing human. In our society today we see many young people having escaped the nurturing environments needed for proper societal development. Violence, robberies, thefts, carjackings, unprovoked attacks, disrespect, hurtful and foul language, denial of authority, self-absorption in personal desires, non-productivity, faithlessness, anger and malice run amuck in our youth in our society today. Many adult parents have not been the greatest of examples. We believe the ugly characteristics mentioned before are due largely to the failure of many to truly appreciate and honor those among us who are mothers. Broken homes too often lead to broken lives. The lack of appreciation shown to our mothers is a cancer eating away at the core of our Nation.

For many decades now we have been sold a bill of goods that produces anything but good. The Greatest Generation, who gave so much to give FREEDOM and LIBERTY to many through their sacrifices in World War 1 and 2, has faded from view, and in many classrooms today has become more legend than history. Some, even now, would claim those National sacrifices as simply myth, denying historical truth, choosing to re-write history to asway their ideological persuasions. The destruction of the core family in our Nation has been exasperated by careless speech and faulty logic. Hillary Clinton wrote a book in 1996 called, “It Takes a Village”. We stand today to say, “It takes a family to make a village!” No non-parent, or government, has the right or obligation to parent the children born or adopted into a family unit. In our Nation today, we see government trying to squeeze out the family unit, giving non-parental authorities dictum over legitimate parents and their God given rights and responsibilities, even to the point of incarceration for objecting to governmental influence in the lives of their children. Are there any “VIRTUOUS WOMEN” in government?

We believe there ARE “VIRTUOUS WOMEN” in our society today. For those women who appreciate FREEDOM and LIBERY, and the right to raise their own children as they see fit, we call them MOTHERS. They birth, nurture, teach and train their young to appreciate and enjoy life, to build respectable characteristics to weave into a social structure beneficial to all. Mothers do not wain in their pursuit of these lofty goals, nor do they fail to be concerned for their child for the entirety of their child’s life. We call these mothers, “VIRTUOUS WOMEN”. They are not fictitious. They are ever present. They have existed for ages, and will exist for ages to come, should this world continue to exist. We can trace the “VIRTUOUS WOMAN” back thousands of years. For our benefit, we have historical writings describing the characteristics of “THE VIRTUOUS WOMAN”. They are found in the Bible’s Old Testament book of Proverbs, Chapter 31, verses 10 through 31. For length of our blog, we will only review two of those verses for contextual proof in our blog today. In verse 28, we find that she, the woman, is a mother, for it says, Her children arise up, and call her blessed . . .” We also find that she has faith in the Lord. Verse 30 says, “Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.” Have you “praised” your mother today? Have you wished her a “HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY”? Have you thanked her for your very life? If you haven’t, maybe it is time to do so before the opportunity passes you by.

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY, MOM!
