DEMOCRATIC PARTY - CORRUPT HISTORY

When it comes to analyzing the Democrat(ic) Party, Ronald Reagan said it best when he was asked why he ditched the Democrats for the Republicans:

I didn’t leave the Democratic party, the Democratic Party left me.”

While the Republican Party has had its share of scandals throughout American political history, it cannot hold a candle to the long history of corruption of the Democratic Party.

Christmas Essay - What Christmas Is To Me


  As far back as I can remember my favorite time of year was Christmas. At the twilight of my life it is the time of year that I get a deep case of the 'Blues'. It is because Christmas is best when there are children around to create the atmosphere. Of course, there is the material trappings called “decorations” that go with it making it even more special.

MISINFORMATION CONCERNING CIRCUMSTANCES OF KYLE RITTENHOUSE INCIDENT

 

Photo: Free Republic

I have seen posted on Facebook misinformation about the circumstance surrounding the August 2020 incident in Kenosha, Wisconsin concerning Kyle Rittenhouse, which many are aware of the gist of what happened. In this case, it is not a Leftist that is passing around misinformation. As of this posting, Facebook “speech police” has not addressed this posting and so I present these points of truths to counter that trash being posted on social media. It is a case of how the media (“press”) has not become the eyes & ears of the people, but the propaganda machine for the Deep Democratic-Socialist State, formally called “The Swamp”.

ALEC BALDWIN - A HISTORY OF HATE, VIOLENCE AND ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOR

 


By now everyone must know about the tragic accidental shooting of a member of the crew while making the film “RUST”. It has been reported by numerous sources that safety issues plagued the set of Rust in the days leading up to the fatal accident. Halyna Hutchins, 42-year-old cinematographer died and Director Joel Souza, 48, was wounded and hospitalized. Previous safety issues were of a concern one of them a misfiring of a weapon days before the Baldwin shooting two people. There were reports of corners being cut and bringing non-union people so they could continue shooting.

It's A Republic, Not A Democracy or Democratic Socialist Experiment


 The Founders in deciding what form of government was to be established, made the decision by examining what type of governments were being used around the globe and those throughout history of civilization. At the time the predominant government type was the monarchy. England had established a monarchy like that of the classic Roman republic where there was one head of government with a body of representatives of the people; being a monarchy with a parliament instead of a senate. Later England would remove the monarchy with a prime minister that was chosen by vote by the people and parliament became more than just an advisory committee of a king or queen. But before that occurred, the American colonists, who wanted better, more direct, representation sent King George a Declaration of Independence in defiance to a monarchy that refused to listen to the people.

THE REMARKABLE BUT TRAGIC LIFE OF LOUIS WAIN

 


Louis William Wain, 1860-1939, was an English artist known for his drawings, most specifically his cats depicted with large eyes. He was the oldest of six children and the only male among his five sisters who never married.

Wain was born with a cleft lip and the family doctor ordered his parents not to send Louis to school until he was ten years old. He was often truant from school and spent most of his childhood wandering around London. Later, Louis studied at the West London School of Art and became a teacher there. At 20, Wain became the head of the household and supporter of his mother and five sisters after his father's death.

ROMAN LEGIONARIES: Strength of Roman Empire


Each legion contained about 5,000 men and was recruited from men accustom to hard labor, usually from a farm. However, as Rome’s dominion grew, legionaries experienced long periods of inactivity, boredom and garrison duty. There were problems.

MYTH BUSTER: JANUARY 6TH 2021 WAS NOT AN INSURRECTION

 


On January 6, 2021, there was a protest concerning election fraud of 2020 National Election. Immediately the Democratic-Socialists and their Marxist Media dubbed it not as a riot when a portion of the demonstrators decided to storm the Capitol , but an “insurrection”. It was, of course, false.

Definition of “insurrection” Merriam-Webster dictionary: “an act or instance of revolting against civil authority or an established government.” OR “a usually violent attempt to take control of a government.”

REPEAL THE DEATH TAX NOW!


 Politicians have promised to get rid of what has become known as the “Death Tax” since Ronald Reagan was president. President Trump wanted to get rid of it, but the Democrat majority prevented it, because Democrats who are Marxists (socialists) target the wealthy to make up for others who pay less than what is fair counting what they get back as refund at beginning of the tax year. Meanwhile, the Democratic-Socialists and those who blindly follow say that the wealthy do not pay their “fair share”. That is a false narrative and if they wanted a “fair share” tax, Congress would end the income tax (repeal the 16th Amendment) and replace it with a flat consumption tax under the Fair Tax Act (H.R. 25 that has continually been shelved since 2000) that would not affect our income.

15 Million Ballots Unaccounted For Across Several States

 “This is the worst way to run an election, what they did in 2020,” J. Christian Adams, president of PILF, told host Boyle in an interview: “The Election Assistance Commission, which is a federal agency … puts out a report every two years. … One of the things it has … is the number of mail ballots that were sent out, the number of mail ballots that came back, and the number of mail ballots that were straight-up rejected, meaning the election officials said there was a defect.”

There is something wrong with out justice system when such things are not addressed to proper courts and especially the US Supreme Court (SCOTUS), who previously refused to hear any cases pertaining to alleged 2020 election fraud.

Unprecedented, this matter is a conundrum for those who believe that Trump should be in the White House and NOT Biden. Just for the Afghanistan debacle, Biden should be impeached at the very least. Poor planning has caused loss of equipment and armament to the Taliban and stranded Americans and Afghan allies despite having months to coordinate an orderly pullout. The rule is - if equipment, data, and armament cannot be removed, it must be destroyed to prevent its use by enemies of the United States.

Should there be a recall, like what happens to state governors?

Should there be a special election called? And if so, should SCOTUS be the one who rules it? 15 million ballots is a lot and certainly would have been a different outcome.

Afghanistan, Islamic Jihad and U.S. Survival

 There has been plenty of coverage of Biden’s Afghanistan debacle, but there is more to the story than his historic incompetence. Abandoning bases and just holding out at Kabul Airport was a major disaster, which helped the Afghan army’s departure before the marauding Taliban forces arrived. 

But Afghanistan errors goes back farther than that in the resurgence of Jihadism whose doctrine is 1400 years old. U.S. and European leadership’s policies has been delusional at best in dealing with the theocratic threat. Indeed, the Roman Catholic Church has proven historically that theocracy is bad government - for any nation and its people. It is why the Founders inserted in the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights the insistence that government should not claim or dictate to any religion as the policy of the state.

Independence Day and the Fight To Save Our Republic


  Our 245th Independence Day anniversary has come and gone this year. But during the rest of the year that day must remain in our minds as we deal with the “clear and present danger” against our Republic, the type of government the Founders created so wisely, which ended up being the best government system in human history. But only if the People protect the Constitution and its amendments.

I have read in commentary on social media where Americans fantasize about another American Revolution. They are allowing emotion to cloud their thinking because there will never be another revolution whose outcome will be such a success (and never has). Just look at France, Russia, Central American and South American countries’ revolutions. Often as not, the outcome is too often worse than before the revolution.

DEMOCRATS ARE ERASING FOND MEMORIES OF AUNT JEMIMA

 Recently Quaker Oats announced (February 2021) that it will retire the Aunt Jemima brand, saying the company recognizes the character’s origins are “based on a racial stereotype.” [U.S. News]

The original "Aunt Jemima" was Nancy Green (1834-1923). She was a former slave, nanny, cook, activist, and the first of many African-American models and performers hired to promote a corporate trademark as "Aunt Jemima". She looked quite different from the modern-day Aunt Jemima we are used to seeing on pancake boxes and syrup bottles. 

NY Times ad, 1909


The pancake mix was developed in 1888 by the Pearl Milling Company. The brand has been owned by the Quaker Oats Company since 1926. Nancy Green portrayed Aunt Jemima at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, one of the first Black corporate models in the United States. As of June 2021, the brand will be named after original owners of the pancake mix - Pearl Milling Company.

American Civics Promotes Continuation of our Republic

 Public Affairs: "The American republic rests upon the foundation of “E Pluribus Unum” — out of many, one. Although the Founders knew from their own experience that a vast diversity in outlooks and opinions would be present among the country’s citizens, they understood that such diversity must rest upon principles and practices we hold in common. It is up to each generation to make sure that this foundational unity remains intact."

If People Want To End Racism - "Stop Talking About It"

 I was impressed with a televised interview of Morgan Freeman, but who voted for Barack Obama twice. What he stated about racism and the silliness of creating one month just for "Black" history while it is only a segment of the history of the United States once dubbed the "Melting Pot" nation. If there is to be an African American history month, what about Asian Americans, Native Americans, Irish Americans, etc.? Racism cannot possibly be ended if people continue to identify themselves based upon skin pigmentation or lack of it. "Blacks" & "Browns" originated from Africa, so why not identify them as African Americans if people no longer want to be identified as "Negro". Ironically, those who prefer to be called "Black" Americans have no idea that the term "Negro" derives from the Spanish word for "Black". It demonstrates how ridiculous "political correctness" is and instead of being dispensed with it has developed into what people are calling the "cancel culture" that is definitely become just as bias as racists in another century.

President Trump Gives a Farewell Address to the American People - 20 January 2021

Along with our 45th President's departure goes four years of successful executive administration not seen since Ronald Reagan and even surpassed his two terms of presidency. The next four years will show how well he did and how well he could have done if the 2020 Election was honest. Those who voted for Biden/Harris are going to find out what a serious mistake it was to elect them.

President Trump may have rubbed some people the wrong way, his actions matched his words and clear evidence of his love of our nation and ALL its people. No one being honest can say he was not successful despite witch hunts, faux impeachment and attempts to obstruct his actions to fulfill his promise to the American people in 2016.

A Republic If You Can Keep It

 


Our Republic has been the longest standing in history. And I am astounded that the Founders, despite being human and certainly not perfect, were so wise as to create a rule of law in the form of the Constitution of the United States with its unique amendments known as the "Bill of Rights" to become a profoundly perfect union of colonies turned states. The Constitution Preamble written by Gouverneur Morris (1752-1816) :
"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."
