Something Wicked This Way Comes

May 14, 2023 By Greg P. Richards

No, I didn’t think of it. Shakespeare did, in Macbeth, inspirting others to quote him.  But it fits with what three recent incidents tell us about what is coming our way.  Under Democrats' governance. You can always, as the kids say… put your head between your legs and kiss your hind-quarters goodbye. But before we get there, there are some other things we can do. Let’s review, very briefly, the three incidents mentioned above…

A 63-year-old bodega employee was attacked in his store by a perpetrator with his girlfriend along. In the course of the scuffle, the girlfriend stabbed the bodega man. Whereupon, the 63-year-old bodega man, in spite of being wounded, attacked with a knife so forcefully that he killed the perpetrator. What did the Democratic governance of NYC do? the bodega employee    

A 73-year-old rancher with a rifle, who lives near the border in Arizona, shot and killed an invader in a group of migrants crossing his property. The details are still obscure. Did the migrants have some rifles? Were there any shots in the rancher’s direction? Did the  rancher first fire over the heads of the migrants? The rancher was arrested, imprisoned – since released – and charged with murder.   

In a NYC subway car, a young man walked down the car, razzing the passengers, saying, among other things, that he was willing to die, assaulting people with thrown trash. The perpetrator got to the end of the car and continued his behavior with a passenger who showed distress. There was another passenger there, a 26-year-old former Marine, who saw the distress of the target person. He stepped in...............

Something wicked. A strategy in four parts to crush the community; to destroy America...

  1. Defund the police.
  2. Which delegitimizes the police.
  3. Even more, it delegitimizes the community.   The community determines the norms the police are maintaining and establishes the metaphysics which everybody – including criminals – at least take account of. (For instance, prior to the most recent plunge under Democrats’ governance, nobody had sex on the sidewalk or defecated there. It  was uncool for everybody.)
  4. After Democrats’ governance has delegitimized the police and then the community, how does the community defend itself?  By volunteers using the Second Amendment. Except that Democrats’ governance criminalizes those who step in.

Quite a package! De-police the country; disarm the citizens. Convert Enterprise America to Welfare America. Top-down socialism. No rights. No Constitution. No community. That’s the fight we’re in.  Is it here yet? No, but we can see it coming on where Democrats’ governance prevails, i.e., in the blue areas of the country…a swatch running approximately from Los Angeles, through San Francisco, the Northwest, the Upper Midwest, and on to New York and the big cities of the East with stops in Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland and other big cities..........To Read More.....


When society loses its collective mind

Wm. Scott Magill By Wm. Scott Magill May 12, 2023 

The other week, President Biden started a bit of a firestorm, when he stated, "There is no such thing as someone else's child. No such thing as someone else's child. Our nation's children are all our children." Yes, we are all responsible for making the world a better place for the next generations; we all should be willing to help in areas wherein the nation's youth are struggling in matters relating to educational failings, the prevalence of crime, access to drugs and the constant attack on American values and mores – but all of these concerns are just as much a product of self-interest as they are from a sense of altruism. Frankly, we want others' children to be healthy, educated, mentally alert and safe from crime, not just because I want to see the innocent among us thrive, but also because they are the future of our country, and if they fail, we all fail as a nation. However, President Biden was not speaking of these concepts in that manner, when he spoke. He was offering a slightly distorted echo of Hillary Clinton's contention that it "takes a village" to raise a child properly..............To Read More....

Mob Rule and the Death of Trust

America’s elites use lies about race, gender, health, climate, environment, and energy to gut the middle class, explode the dependent class, and transfer trillions into their own pockets.

By Edward Ring

It’s been clear to millions of Americans for decades that the media was biased, that the Democratic Party and their government employee union allies controlled and corrupted big city elections, and that the “climate crises” and the threat of “white supremacy” were being oversold. These and other annoyances were perennial. But for many skeptics, the level of mistrust remained tolerable. The system itself was resilient. Nothing is perfect. The tide can turn. The good guys could still win. The 2015 arrival of Donald Trump on the national political scene changed the rules. The system not only revealed itself to be even more fraudulent than most people had previously believed, but it became malevolent.

For over six years, representatives of every established institution in the country have stereotyped Americans who voted for President Trump as bigots, idiots, ignoramuses, haters, psychopaths, and traitors. The virulence of this condemnation has escalated each year, culminating during the 2022 mid-term election cycle with a full-court press to tag anyone who supports the former president as a fascist and and potential “domestic terrorist.”.........To Read More....

Democrats use Republicans’ honor against them

November 15, 2022 By M.B. Mathews

Democrats are Lucy.  Republicans are Linus.  The football is honor and decency.  Democrats are ruthless in their willingness to cheat, obfuscate, confuse, deceive, and play dirty.  This isn't news.  Republicans, having a moral code that relies upon a Judeo-Christian ethic, can be relied upon to always do what is right.  (Exceptions exist: Liz Cheney and Mitch McConnell, for example.)  Democrats take advantage of the GOP's fealty to doing what is honorable, a word far removed from a Democrat's worldview.........

Leftists force mass Third World immigration by deceiving us into feeling guilty

September 25, 2021 By M. E. Boyd

Milton Friedman, the economist, was such a libertarian that he supported open borders. However, there was a caveat to this support: “It’s just obvious you can't have free immigration and a welfare state.” It’s obvious, of course, because having both spells imminent national bankruptcy. But that’s exactly what leftists are selling to America and they’re using false historic narratives to create in native-born Americans a sense of guilt so profound that they’re willingly opening the borders to those who will irrevocably drain the nation’s wealth.

In a recent article, Guilt: The Source of Sorrow in America’s Classrooms, I said that, as long as the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution grants full due process and equal protection rights to anyone who touches the soil of a state, America cannot keep creating massive welfare rights at unthinkable costs without bankrupting the nation.

I used the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), 1990, amended in 2004, as an example of rights that must be granted to illegal alien children, even if they’re not claiming refugee or asylum status, if they are physically within the jurisdiction of a state and are deemed children “with a disability.” States have a legal duty to identify such children and make sure that they receive an Individualized Education Plan, including the often expensive “related” services...........To Read More....
