Government in Exile

Who’s Steering the Ship of State?

"Peter" is wondering who is steering the Ship of State.

The Democrats are becoming seriously concerned about Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities, albeit too late to avoid national embarrassment. The party bigwigs are meeting to decide on a course of action. They have asked Kamala Harris to resign, citing any reason she wants. But she has so far declined.

 

The latest offer assures Harris of the next vacancy on the Supreme Court. That’s how desperate they have become, to put someone of Harris’ limited intellect and lack of skill in oral communication on the Supreme Court: Shocking!

 

The Democrats want to be able to appoint a Democrat to the Vice Presidency who will be a strong candidate in 2024. That is their only hope for winning the White House in 2024. Harris is still resisting; most people believe it’s because she knows she’s unqualified. She knows she’s unqualified for her current position.

 

Biden has vehemently refused to resign, which is another fly in the Democrat’s ointment. They’ll have to resort to having the Cabinet remove him under the 25^th Amendment. They are loathe to do that prior to the mid-term elections, which leaves them little time to get their office shuffling done and have the new President ready for the 2024 elections.

 

The Democrats are flustered and being led by a cartoon character from Looney Tunes who is dazed and confused. What were American voters thinking when they chose to vote for Biden? Or, were they just voting AGAINST Donald Trump?

 

Something for Republican voters to think about before the 2024 primaries.

Why is there Rampant Antisemitism?

"Peter" has some thoughts about the current rash of antisemitism.

There is a nation-wide outcry in the media about rampant antisemitism in the United States. They say its never been this bad in our history. Why is that?

 

A 2017 study estimated that 3.45 million Muslims were living in the United States, about 1.1 percent of the total U.S. population, thanks primarily to Barack Obama and Joe Biden. In 2017, 20 states which were mostly in the South and Midwest reported Islam being the largest non-Christian religion. With the influx from our wide-open southern border, the number of Muslims in the United States has grown to 8.11 million in 2023. Some areas, like Michigan, have Muslim populations so dense that they have managed to elect Muslims to Congress. Dearborn is 90% Muslim and boasts the largest mosque in North America. Experts predict that Islam could be the second-largest religion in the U.S.  by 2040.

 

Jewish students in many Ivy League universities are being harassed and harangued by fellow students, who happen to be mostly Muslim. Muslim members of Congress are openly supporting Hamas and demanding that Biden pressure the Israelis to call a cease fire. Pro-Hamas and anti-Israel protests are happening in New York, Philadelphia, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Los Angeles and other metropolitan areas.

 

Muslims do not integrate with other faiths. All others are considered infidels and are not to be tolerated. They are not just antisemitic; they are anti-everyone else in the world. Muslims tried to break out of the Middle East and conquer Europe several times throughout history, with some success. The Muslim religion demands segregation from infidels, so they group together in neighborhoods and cities, having little or no socialization with we infidels. They do not trust us.

 

So the pro-Hamas demonstrations in the U.S. and the rest of the civilized world should have been expected by our political and military leaders. They express surprise and disappointment, but they are misleading us. Allowing such an influx of Muslims into this country is a huge national security problem, as is our open border.

 

Biden and his radical left allies created this mess, on purpose. Ask them why.

 

This country will suffer divisions, conflicts and deep depression for decades to come if the democrats win in 2024. In fact, we may never have a chance to recover, because they are “stacking the deck” in their favor. There is a bill being drafted by the democrats right now to give voting rights to non-citizens, legal or not.

 

Horrific hardly describes our situation.

Vivek Ramaswamy for President?

"Peter" has some thoughts about Presidential Candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.

Vivek Ramaswamy on the Mehdi Hassan Show Thursday, September 7, 2023:

Hassan: "You say you're anti-identity politics, anti-affirmative action in a party that hates the Soros name, yet you accepted a Paul and Daisy Soros scholarship at law school that was specifically set up for the children of immigrants," Hasan said. "It was an affirmative action scholarship, and your defense for that is that you didn't have the money to pay for law school even though you had already made over a million dollars at the time."

 

Ramaswamy: "I didn't say I didn't have the money; I said at a time when I had a lot less money than now, $50,000 was still useful," Ramaswamy said before Hasan spoke over him. Hasan said Ramaswamy keeps forgetting he said he "didn't have the money."

Ramaswamy had previously said he "didn't have the money" for Yale Law School after graduating from Harvard.

When a millionaire politician gets $50,000 from a Soros source, then lies about the circumstances, he’s dead to me.

The Republican Debate

"Peter" has some thoughts on the GOP Debate.

The GOP Candidate Debates

The best line came from Brett Baier, “The elephant not in the room”; referring obviously to the least-liked former POTUS, Donald Trump. Trump will be Biden’s age before he finishes another term in office. But there is no chance of the GOP taking the White House, let alone the House or Senate, if Trump is their nominee. He is despised by far too many Republicans and Independents, who would vote for Biden – or anyone else - over Trump.

 

The RNC is obviously worried about Vivek Ramaswamy. He was interrupted and attacked more than any other candidate. But he did himself in when he said he would not continue the funding for the defense of Ukraine.

 

Pence was rude and interrupting beneath his façade of sanctimony. He held his chin a bit too high.

 

Christie made some good points, but he still comes off as too “New Jersey” and too fat.

 

Haley scored some points with women by quoting Margaret Thatcher, “If you want something done right, ask a woman”. But we all knew that; our wives had already said it.

 

DiSantis scored more points than any of the others and had what he’s done in Florida for proof. His best comment was that, as POTUS, he would use US Special Forces inside Mexico to root out cartel bosses and kill them; and any cartel soldiers or drug smugglers who crossed our border.

 

Tim Scott seems a nice guy who just isn’t ready.

 

Doug Burgum is a firebrand for his age, but he doesn’t have the necessary experience.

 

Asa Hutchinson, also getting up there in age, was just barely hanging on by his fingernails.

 

All in all DiSantis appears to have taken his lead even farther. Here’s hoping he can dethrone The Donald.

The U.S. is now officially a Banana Republic.

The U.S. is now officially a Banana Republic.

"Peter" has some thoughts on our standing in the world.

The Fed has raised interest rates again…

The US credit rating has been lowered…

The stock market is plunging…

The MSM hasn’t yet noticed any of it…

Once again, former POTUS Trump is the shiny object, deflecting everyone’s attention away from important matters to “creative” prosecution and imaginary misdemeanors. Jack Smith is bootstrapping his budding novelist fantasies with prosecution after prosecution, persecution after persecution of Trump, timed (coincidentally?) to coincide with the markers of US misfortunes under the Biden administration.

 

The MSM doesn’t do their due diligence on the Trump charges, they just use them to provide media cover for the Biden failures.

 

The MSM doesn’t report that these charges against Trump are unprecedented in history. They don’t explain that many of these charges against Trump are creative and have never before been filed; that many of these charges are not based on existing criminal statutes, or that they will never survive SCOTUS scrutiny.

 

Jack Smith doesn’t care if he loses in court, as long as he can keep Trump off the 2024 ballot. It’s not about justice, its about politics. The US is now officially a Banana Republic!

WOKE Policies are Weakening America

"Peter" has some thoughts about our government's WOKE policies.

 

WOKE leaders in our military, universities and corporations are weakening America.

 

The pentagon is having serious manpower shortages as WOKE policies are driving away the blue collar and conservative men and women who are the mainstay of military staffing. Flying “pride” flags and hosting drag shows is not the way to attract recruits. Manpower shortages weaken our abilities to respond to threats around the world, particularly with respect to keeping sea lanes free for our freighters and tankers to keep America supplied with our daily needs.

 

Corporate America is having trouble with their bottom line as WOKE ads drive away their usual customers by focusing on the fringes of their customer base, such as the LGBTQ community. The LGBTQ community comprises less than 10% of the population, so catering to them is a disservice to stockholders and customers alike. It is a failure of their fiduciary responsibility to stockholders, as well as disloyalty to their regular customers.

 

Universities having WOKE professors who require adherence to their philosophy by students in order to get a passing grade do a disservice to their students and to the ultimate employers of graduates indoctrinated in WOKE philosophy. This is how corporations and the military have acquired WOKE leaders whose policies end up failing to uphold their responsibility to their entity.

 

Some of our political leaders have also been indoctrinated in WOKE philosophy, resulting in decisions and policies that are a disservice to their constituencies. For example, flying the “pride” flag next to the American flag at the White House, military bases and embassies. How does that help us to achieve our diplomatic and military goals?

 

WOKE philosophy and policies are a threat to democracy and to our economy.

 

Communist China’s (CCP) growing influence in American universities and corporations supports the WOKE agenda. It is in the CCP’s interest to weaken America, so naturally they will support anything that helps to achieve that goal. It should be noted that any LGBTQ-like organization in China would be declared a criminal enterprise and its members would be arrested; in some cases, such as involving minors, they would be executed. But they fully support drag shows at elementary schools on American military bases and in our cities.

 

We are in serious danger of losing our position as leader of economic and military strength in the world. The CCP has even proposed to world leaders that the yuan should replace the dollar as the international trading currency.

The Marxist’s Plan for Rebuilding America

"Peter" has some thoughts about the Marxist's plan to rebuild America

 

“Marxism posits that the struggle between social classes—specifically between the bourgeoisie, or capitalists, and the proletariat, or workers—defines economic relations in a capitalist economy and will lead inevitably to a communist revolution.”

 

Marxists also believe that before you can build a new house, you must first demolish the old house and lay in a new foundation. Their path to demolishing the old house, America, is in dividing the population against each other by use of polarizing issues; and weakening the country by attacking the economy and the financial structure.

 

Examples

 

Reducing energy output, such as cancelling the Keystone XL pipeline, to wipe out energy independence.

 

Using “green” religious doctrine, such as reducing CO2 emissions, to attack gas fired electrical generating plants, vehicles and even the natural gas stoves in our homes, to cause further division and economic harm.

 

Using false charges of racism whenever and wherever possible to make racism the central component of any argument or issue.

 

Attacking individuals and institutions with false accusations of racism to “cancel” their voices and remove them from society.

 

Using our public schools to indoctrinate children to divide them from their parents using racial rhetoric and inappropriate sexual issues, such as gender dysphoria or LGBTQ “drag shows”, encouraging confused children to question their sexuality and even get gender reassigning hormonal therapy and often surgery without the knowledge or permission of the parents.

 

Weakening America around the world by foreign policy blunders, military blunders, intelligence blunders and national security blunders; along with a weak and fragile POTUS globe-trotting and blundering his way through dozens of foreign speeches filled with gaffes, lies, retractions, insults and meaningless drivel. Of course, the globe-trotting “word salad” speeches of the VP are always available to make the POTUS seem articulate by comparison.

 

Weakening the military with “woke” policies and DEI mandates; and making them appear dishonorable and incompetent, such as the surrender to the Taliban and the stupidly planned withdrawal, leaving behind tens of billions of dollars’ worth of military hardware, vehicles and equipment for the Taliban to sell to our adversaries; leaving behind hundreds of Americans along with thousands of allies. A huge stain on our military, directed by our “Manchurian candidate” POTUS – a true Marxist.

 

America is already well on the way to being torn down to her foundation, the U.S. Constitution.

 

Now the Marxists are attacking the Constitution itself. Free speech was written into the Constitution in the First Amendment. It is intended to protect unpopular views so that people hear every side of an issue. Our newspapers and social media depend on it for their existence, yet they have, stupidly, cooperated in censoring free speech by punishing those with whom they disagree. A recent example is Scott Adams, the creator of the Dilbert comic strip and books. In a podcast, Adams said he preferred living in an all-white neighborhood to a racially mixed neighborhood because there was less crime. Newspapers across the country immediately removed the Dilbert comic strip from their papers. Adams has fallen into obscurity and has lost his main source of income. That is censorship. That is an attack on the First Amendment. Whether you agree with his opinion or not, you must respect his right to speak it.

 

The Second Amendment gives us the right to possess firearms. It is not intended solely for personal defense; it is intended to protect the citizenry from a tyrannical government bent on totalitarian oppression. Democrats want strict gun control, even gun confiscation. They attack the Second Amendment constantly, always blaming the gun rather than the criminal pulling the trigger. They do it not because they believe it, but because it is a means to an end; the end of the Second Amendment.

 

The Fourteenth Amendment guarantees due process in our judicial system. Marxist- backed prosecutors across the country have been allowing criminals to go free, without bail, causing a spike in crime. These radical D.A.s have also arbitrarily reduced many felonies to misdemeanors and probationary sentences, contributing to recidivism and high crime rates. They turn a deaf ear to victims, but listen to every complaint of a criminal. They treat police disrespectfully in court, causing morale to drop and resignations to go up. The FBI and the DOJ have been so politicized by the Marxists that they have little credibility left. Their consistent cover-up of Democrats’ crimes, such as Hillary Clinton or Joe Biden, and their constant attempts to prosecute – or should I say persecute – former POTUS Trump have left them shame-faced, disrespected and dishonored.

 

Our Constitutional Republic is being damaged more severely than any terrorist would ever have dreamed possible; and it has happened in a mere two and a half years. If you didn’t know any of this, you are part of the problem. Get informed. Read foreign newspapers online; they paint a different picture of America than you have seen previously. Get involved in your kid’s

school work and question their curricula. You may be shocked at what you discover. Demand that people like Scott Adams be heard and not punished for their words.

America Has Gone Crazy

 

Today I woke up and as I had my morning coffee, I realized that everything is changing for the worse. No matter how I vote, no matter what I say, no matter how much I pray; something evil has invaded our nation, and our lives are never going to be the same. 

I have been confused by the hostility of family and friends. I look at people I have known all my life--so hate-filled that they agree with opinions they would never express as their own. 

I think that I may well have entered the Twilight Zone. We have become a nation that has lost its collective mind! 

This insanity can’t be justified:

If a guy pretends to be a woman, you are required to pretend with him.

Somehow, it’s un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America.

Russians influencing our elections are bad, but illegals voting in our elections are good.

Twenty is too young to drink a beer, but eighteen is old enough to vote.

People who have never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who have never been slaves.

People who have never been to college should pay the debts of college students who took out huge loans for their degrees. 

Immigrants with tuberculosis and polio are welcome, but you’d better be able to prove your dog is vaccinated.

Irish doctors and German engineers who want to immigrate to the US must go through a rigorous vetting process, but any illiterate gang member or terrorist who jumps the southern fence is welcome. 

$5 billion for border security is too expensive, but $1.5 trillion for “free” health care is not. 

If you cheat to get into college you go to prison, but if you cheat to get into the country you go to college for free.

If you cheat in an election nothing happens to you, but if you point out the mathematical errors of that election you are a conspiracy theorist & disdained. 

People who say there is no such thing as gender are demanding a female President.

We see other countries going Socialist and collapsing, but it seems like a great plan for us.

Some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, and other people are not held responsible for what they are doing right now.

Criminals are caught-and-released to hurt more people, but stopping them is bad because it's a violation of their rights. And pointing out all this hypocrisy somehow makes us "racists"?!

People are dying of a Chinese virus, but it's racist to refer to it as Chinese even though it began in China.

We are clearly living in an upside-down world where right is wrong and wrong is right, where moral is immoral and immoral is moral, where good is evil and evil is good. Nothing makes sense anymore - no values, no morals, and no civility. 

Wake up America, the great unsinkable ship Titanic America has hit an iceberg, it's taking on water, and is sinking fast. We Americans are drowning.

Speak up while you still have breath and a voice, for soon you will have neither if you don't!

Anonymous; born a man, still a man

 

The Destruction Strategy

 

"Peter" has some thoughts about the decline of America.

The Marxists currently controlling President Biden and many members of Congress have a plan for the future of the U.S.A. They want to build a socialist utopia and give everyone equity. But, before they can start building they must first destroy the U.S.A. down to it’s foundations and start from scratch.

 

They want to destroy our history and the memory of our founding fathers.

 

They want to cause division and turmoil between the races that make up our population.

 

They want to program our children away from critical thinking to cognitive dissonance and indoctrination.

 

They want to attack manhood, to impugn courage, to create new genders causing chaos and doubt amongst our children.

 

They want to create a lack of confidence in our electoral system to undermine our democratic processes.

 

They want to encourage more crime in the streets and the boardrooms of America.

 

They want to weaken our military services by making our military services unattractive to potential recruits through “woke” policies and military failures, such as the withdrawal from Afghanistan.

 

They want to drive us into unsustainable debt through “green” policies that ruin our economy and our incentive to work hard.

 

They have waged war upon our energy production by shutting down oil drilling and pipelines, forcing us to buy oil from hostile countries at exorbitant prices while, at the same time, selling our strategic reserves of oil to China at bargain basement prices.

 

They want to force us to buy and use electric vehicles, knowing full well that our electric grid can’t support them and that we have no way of dealing with the millions of very heavy used up batteries that would be discarded yearly.

 

They have opened our borders to millions of unidentified immigrants, including many terrorists, drug traffickers and human traffickers amongst their ranks. Hundreds of thousands of them are being trafficked for sex in major cities all across the country.

 

These tactics are ruining our economy and driving us into financial chaos. Banks are starting to fail and the stock market is falling fast. It will not be long before these Marxists have succeeded to the point where millions of Americans will be dependent upon the government for their subsistence; millions more will be unemployed and living on their savings.

 

All this is happening right before our eyes, right now.

 

WAKE UP! You won’t be able to smell the coffee over the stench of socialism all around you.

 

Transparency

"Peter" has some thoughts about transparency.

Joe Biden’s lawyers recently conducted a “more thorough” search of his home and garage in the wake of several “discoveries” of classified documents. The search was “monitored” by DOJ officials who did not participate in the search and who are not cleared to receive classified documents.

 

FBI agents are routinely issued Top Secret security clearances; but no FBI agents were “allowed” on the property. What?!

 

In my thirty-nine years as a criminal investigator for both state and federal agencies I have never seen or heard of an instance where the prosecuting agency deferred to the defense attorneys to conduct a search for evidence or to seize evidence where criminal violations apply; nor have I seen or heard of an instance where the investigators were “not allowed” to be present.

 

This is the transparency Biden promised, the transparency of corruption rising to the top of the U.S. Department of Justice, the FBI and the White House.

 

FBI SWAT Teams and Forensic Teams went through Mar-a-Lago with a fine-tooth comb, with very little justification. In Biden’s case, there have been several “discoveries” of classified documents in unsecure locations, including boxes stacked alongside his Corvette in the garage. The same Corvette that Hunter gets to drive.

 

It will be months, maybe years, before the FBI can conclude a National Security damage assessment because of the unknown number and status of people having visited Biden’s home, particularly while he was out of office and had no Secret Service detail assigned to him. Such an assessment was unnecessary in Trump’s case.

 

Add to this transparent corruption the newly discovered information on how Hunter pays “the Big Guy” his share of the millions of dollars received from China and Ukraine. Hunter “rents” one of Joe Biden’s houses for $50,000 per month. Transparent influence peddling.

 

In the FBI motto, Integrity is listed last.  You guys in the trenches must demand that it be moved to the front and put on display. The citizens of this great nation deserve your Fidelity, your Bravery AND your Integrity.

Was the Election Count Accurate?

"Peter" as some thoughts about the election.

It isn’t the voters that count; it’s the civil servants who count the votes.

Were the democrats just smart enough to find the polling place to cast their vote, while many Republicans were just lazy enough to not bother with voting? Maybe, but the democrats have been seducing the unions for a hundred years. The Deep State is made up of civil service union members. It’s not hard to figure out how they keep getting these “too close to call” elections tipping in their favor so often. Look at how often large blocks of votes are “found” at the last minute and every one of them a vote for the democrats. What are the odds of that happening, time after time?

It’s a difficult situation because the democrats promise the unions increased pay and benefits, passing the cost on to the tax payers. All the Republicans promise is austerity, lower taxes (which benefits everyone) and increased law enforcement resulting in lower crime rates.

Since lower taxes benefits everyone and increased law enforcement benefits everyone except criminals, shouldn’t that be the message of the GOP? Shouldn’t we be shouting that from the rooftops?

This is not rocket science. The Deep State is real; it’s controlling our elections and eroding our Constitution.
