Hillary Clinton is Shit out of Luck: Her connections to Hamas and lesbian love with Yoko Ono exposed in the shadow of Trump
During the weekend news dump right after the New Year of 2016 ISIS lunatics finally released a video featuring Donald Trump as one of their reasons for recruiting against America. In the weeks prior, as the videos below clearly chronicle, Hillary had accused the presidential front-runner Trump of being the best recruiting tool for ISIS. Of course Trump blasted her for being a liar. Then within a week ISIS released a video finally featuring Trump in just the manner that Hillary Clinton suggested. Hmmmmmmmmm, the timing is very interesting.
I was having a piña colada at the Cheesecake Factory bar as the Arizona Razorbacks won the Liberty Bowl. It was a crowded place and many were watching the game with me. Many others were on their phones checking news, texts and other reading material. It was a vibrant, energetic atmosphere reflecting American values emphatically, and all I could think about was ISIS. Terrorists and radical hopefuls don’t have the same vibrant culture in east Syria and upper Iraq. They have a lot of sand, a little bit of the Internet, and they have the news from Al Jazeera. They certainly don’t have a Cheesecake Factory, and if they did, they would just blow it up—because that’s what they do. They are insecure religious nutcases that are largely a product of their limitations—their lack of culture and imagination. They hate the West the way a jealous neighbor hates a successful household down the street. They picked a collective based economy as their means for development, and they obviously made a mistake. So their war with the West is essentially to attempt to erase the mistakes of their own culture. That’s when I remembered a couple of things about Hillary Clinton from the past several months.
Do you remember dear reader when Hillary Clinton said “In fact viewership of Al Jazeera is going up in the United States because it’s real news. You may not agree with it, but you feel like you’re getting real news around the clock instead of a million commercials and, you know, arguments between talking heads and the kind of stuff that we do on our news which, you know, is not particularly informative to us, let alone foreigners.” That is very interesting, she was obviously at the time using a Saul Alinsky tactic from the book Rules for Radicals to plant a seed in the media she hoped would be more conducive to her many faults and eventual presidential campaign. She has for many years planted stories that she hoped would change the way that things get covered—such as her Bengahzi screw-up where she insisted that the terrorist attack was a reaction to a anti-Islamic movie, and not her sheer incompetence as she through the Obama administration had been involved in arming rebels against Libyan, Egyptian, and Syrian dictators. In the wake of that activity ISIS was born and the Arab Spring emerged. But Hillary hoped the media would blame the whole thing on a video that had no relevance. It is very interesting that Clinton and her friend Al Gore are very supportive of Al Jazeera as a network—as it is the news of the Islamic Caliphate presently.

Al Jazeera (Arabic: الجزيرة al-ǧazīrah IPA: [æl dʒæˈziːrɐ], literally “The Peninsula”,[3] referring to the Arabian Peninsula), also known as Aljazeera and JSC (Jazeera Satellite Channel), is a Doha-based state-funded broadcaster owned by the Al Jazeera Media Network, which is partly funded by the House of Thani, the ruling family of Qatar.[4] Initially launched as an Arabic news and current affairs satellite TV channel, Al Jazeera has since expanded into a network with several outlets, including the Internet and specialty TV channels in multiple languages.
Al Jazeera is among the largest news organizations with 80 bureaus around the world. Al Jazeera is owned by the government of Qatar.[4][5][6][7][8][9] While Al Jazeera officials have stated that they are editorially independent from the government of Qatar, this assertion has been disputed.[10]
The original Al Jazeera channel’s willingness to broadcast dissenting views, for example on call-in shows, created controversies in the Arab States of the Persian Gulf. The station gained worldwide attention following the outbreak of war in Afghanistan, when it was the only channel to cover the war live, from its office there.[11]
Al Jazeera has been called a propaganda outlet for the Qatari government and its foreign policy, by analysts and by news reporters, including former Al Jazeera reporters.[12][13][14][15][16][17][18] The network is sometimes perceived to have mainly Islamist perspectives, promoting the Muslim Brotherhood, and having a pro-Sunni and an anti-Shia bias in its reporting of regional issues.[19][20] However, Al Jazeera insists it covers all sides of a debate, it says it presents Israel’s view, Iran’s view and even aired videos released by Osama bin Laden.[21]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Jazeera
Isn’t that a strange thing to say by Hillary Clinton within the American media culture that is obviously overflowing with information and voluminous details of everything from sports scores to nitty-gritty politics? She thinks Americans could learn something from Al Jazeera. But that’s not the only strange bit of information that has come out about Hillary Clinton over the last six months—which was lost to the media world because of her scandals with email and her stalled run for POTUS. Yoko Ono, the widow of John Lennon, when asked about her thoughts about Hillary’s run for the presidency completely took reporters by surprise. “We met many times during the New York Vietnam War protests in the 1970s, and became very intimate. We shared many of the same values about sexual equality, fighting against the authoritarian, patriarchal, male-dominated society we were raised in” she explained. “We had a brief romantic fling when I lived with John in Manhattan and Hillary was studying at Yale, but eventually we lost touch. I am amazed how things are going well for her and wish her the best for her campaign” she told reporters during the press conference.
The Clintons have always sold themselves as a traditional couple to voters, although anybody who pays attention can clearly see that Hillary is likely just as much of a sexual deviant as her husband is. In a bizarre manner, Hillary seems to enjoy her husband’s exploits with women because it is obvious that she has had many sexual relationships with women herself over the years—and she enjoys the relationships her husband has with other women in a voyeuristic fashion. This is a minor detail that is necessary for voters to understand. It’s one thing if Hillary came out and said that she likes sexual relationships with women and that is why she supports LGBT rights and all the rainbow marching parades that feature homosexuals and transvestites around the country so often—but she doesn’t—she avoids the question constantly and pretends it’s not important. So to keep the media off her heels digging up everything she tries to hide with 24 hour per day coverage into every aspect of a presidential candidate’s life—she floats to the public that she thinks Al Jazeera is the example of a news organization that should be followed.
That is why it’s important to understand who Qatar is. The wait at the Cheesecake Factory was nearly 45 minutes for a table for two and it was obvious to me that there was so much information out there that most of the people around me couldn’t absorb it all. As some people were snaked outside waiting for up to an hour and a half for a table they had likely forgotten about Hillary Clinton’s relationship with Al Jazeera and the government that produces the news organization in Qatar. Most of the people around me could tell me the details of the Razorbacks defense and the reason why they won the game over Kansas, but they probably couldn’t point to Qatar on a map. The Clinton Foundation and the terror group Hamas share a key donor: The government of Qatar, a leading backer of terror groups that has emerged in recent years as Hamas’ chief financial lifeline. Qatar, which has been designated by the State Department as a “significant terrorist financing risk,” has pledged more than $400 million to Hamas since 2012 and has long harbored one of the terror group’s senior leaders, Khaled Mashaal. At the same time, Qatar has sought to curry favor with elite Westerners, donating between $1 million and $5 million through 2013 to the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation. Isn’t that interesting that Clinton supported Al Jazeera, because they are big donors to the Clinton Foundation—but then again George Stephanopoulos at ABC has as well. So has Donald Trump. A lot of people have been extorted by the Clintons into giving money on their government shakedown conspiracies. But Qatar is different from New York personalities who donate a lot of money to everyone they think is a good organization. The Clintons use those American donations to hide their foreign donations with a lot of noise to conceal their true intentions—global government through occasional terrorism, LGBT rights to camouflage their past and present sexual exploits all in a desire to obtain more power and to expand the work of Saul Alinsky to every corner of the world.
http://freebeacon.com/politics/clinton-foundation-hamas-share-major-donor/
Coming to the end of 2015 Hillary saw that Trump was the Republican frontrunner and that she wouldn’t be able to beat him in day-to-day combat, so she called in some favors. The government of Qatar heard her request and they found a way to get ISIS terrorists to put Donald Trump into a recruitment video. But it didn’t happen until a week after Trump called her a liar. I know from the crowd at the Cheesecake Factory that they don’t have the retention required to put all these pieces together—but I do. That’s why I write these stories because honestly, I don’t forget anything. I enjoy dynamic environments like busy restaurants during a football bowl game, but I always pay attention to the small stuff and when I hear some news, I log it away in the back of my mind until I get another piece of the puzzle.
What Hillary was doing to Trump was directed at her friends in Qatar, who are clear allies with her intended administration. She knows Trump will exploit all these malicious relationships over the next several months so she had to attack and try to make it look like the evidence was always there. But it wasn’t. All it did show was how close Hillary Clinton is to actual terrorists. It is clear her political influence reaches into the sands of east Iraq to the kids chanting death to America. And that she has hidden that relationship from the American public in the same way that she’s hidden her lesbian adventures with pop culture stars which transgressed for many years. She is as Trump said a liar. And Hillary counts on the fervor of American culture to hide her true intentions behind college football games and restaurant lines that occupy entire evenings—hoping that nobody will notice. But in that regard, she’s shit out of luck.

Obama Couldn’t have Competed on ‘The Apprentice’: Understanding how severe the National Debt really is
Let’s assume for a moment that Barack Obama is not an insurgent economic terrorist attempting to destroy the American economy—but is rather—just an idiot. Let’s give him the benefit of the doubt just for the sake of fairness. Then it makes it that much more preposterous that during the White House Correspondence Dinner of 2011 that Obama roasted Donald Trump in front of a packed house diminishing greatly the television show The Apprentice which was a top rated program on NBC during its run. CLICK HERE TO REVIEW. Obama suggested that his role as president was so much more profound and that he didn’t have time for silly television shows that featured basic management techniques. As a former community organizer now in the role of President of the United States, he was above that kind of silliness, and the crowd had a lot of fun at Trump’s expense. This was very disingenuous, because the show was far more successful than anything that Barack Obama had personally ever done in his life and was about things that the President clearly didn’t understand like how to make money in a capitalist society. The comments were a window into the ridiculous proposals economically that the POTUS embraced along with most of the world media and were just preposterous. So for fun, and practical examples, let’s go back in time a bit to the very first Apprentice episode in 2004—where the contestants were selling lemonade in New York City for a chance to become an employee for the Trump Organization.
I never watched much television back then. I knew most of what the television show was displaying and I was doing it in real life. But it was interesting to go back and watch these shows—which aren’t that old and I noticed a few things. First of all, the debt clock in New York during 2004 was at $6 trillion dollars which at the time seemed like a ridiculous amount of money. However, just 11 years later, it is just shy of $19 trillion and is projected to exceed $21 trillion before Obama leaves the White House in just over a year’s time of this writing. That far exceeds the yearly GDP of The United States and is really dangerous. At that rate of growth, it will become impossible very soon to ever pay it off and nobody is addressing that issue—except for a few Republicans—Trump being one of the loudest voices. For me, it is the number one issue of the 2016 election. Whoever the next president will be has a tremendously difficult task in front of them. The Nation Debt is the biggest issue of our time—our nation will not survive another ten years of neglect without dealing with the massive problem it proposals to each and every one of us. Our federal government has mismanaged our resources in a terrible way, and now we are going to pay hell for it.
The other thing that is realized upon watching that first Apprentice episode was that Barack Obama wouldn’t even be competitive in that show. Donald Trump could walk into any government office or company right now and rattle off four or five big things that the organization could do to save a few bucks and become more profitable. It doesn’t matter what it is—he knows enough about management to perform the task at any level of endeavor, from selling lemonade to closing multibillion dollar deals. I’ve said it before and it’s truer now than ever, Obama couldn’t walk into a McDonald’s right now and manage a lunch rush. He doesn’t understand the basics of management—you can see it on his face and in the things he says. He is completely lost when it comes to management of resources in a capitalist culture. He is a big government guy who simply spends other people’s money—like a trophy wife who spends on her husband’s credit card without understanding the value of the money or what it takes to get it.
The winner of that first season of Apprentice received a job with the Trump Organization and led the way under careful mentorship to developing the Trump Tower in Chicago. He did such a good job that the Trump Organization gave him a year extension to his original one year contract. As the construction of that massive effort commenced the winner directed efforts toward sales and marketing the endeavor which turned out to be a glorious success. It is one of the great towers of the world and is one of the most spectacular things on the Chicago skyline. I don’t think Obama could do anything in the Trump Organization. On his own merits he wouldn’t be able to get a job because he’s not qualified for anything. Obama can certainly sell, but it doesn’t take long for people to realize that there is nothing to back up the talk and in the private sector he’d lose his credibility quickly.
The President’s berating of Donald Trump in 2011 comes off sounding like the Roman emperor Nero making jokes and enjoying parties as his country burns. Strictly from a financial view, what Obama and virtually every member of the media are doing is criminal—the theft and mismanagement of public resources. Getting out of this mess will be one of the largest comebacks in the history of the world—and I don’t know that it’s possible. I write here everyday because it’s one of the only things that I can do to help such a massive global problem. I don’t charge money for the primary material because what would be the point—if our economy collapses and the value of the dollar with it—it doesn’t matter if you make millions of dollars if you lose the value of it in the process. So I have literally written millions and millions of words on this blog site pointing out things that I intend to have an impact on our culture-and it works. There are a lot of people who come to things late in their life and they seek answers—and I give answers or at least something to think about. Donald Trump has written a lot of books, most of them 80,000 word publications. If all the links on just this article are put together there are several books worth of information here that should guide the reader toward some level of prosperity—and it’s all done for free, because I want people to be more successful in their lives and the best way to do that is to understand the value of money. Click on these links and it will become clear just how bad that National Debt really is.
In many ways I think only Donald Trump is qualified to be the next POTUS. The situation is so severe that there just isn’t another person available who has the energy, connections, and understanding to perform the ominous task of getting our American economy back under control. Both of my daughters were born during George Bush’s presidency (#41). They like a lot of Millennials their age have never experienced a successful president in the United States. Everyone during their entire lives for a quarter of a century has been losers in the White House. They don’t have any memory of a Ronald Reagan, a John Kennedy, a Dwight Eisenhower, or a Calvin Cooledge. They only know losers who would be personal failures if not for the White House glamour and glitz given to them by voters out of hope because they could at least talk a good game. In real life, performance matters and Obama clearly doesn’t understand why. If he watched and understood The Apprentice he might have been a better manager in the White House, but instead he insisted on socialism and government control of everything—and that just hasn’t worked. He had no right to laugh or make fun of Donald Trump and the rest of the media were idiots for churning on the President for doing something they dared not do themselves. Now we are in serious trouble and it will take a real fighter—and winner to get the United States out of it. The Apprentice is old enough that most of the episodes are on YouTube so I’d suggest watching that show again knowing now things that many didn’t know then and think about the kind of problems that are facing our nation in 2016. We won’t get another chance to fix it. By clicking on the links within this article, a picture will become quite obvious and it all comes to a head in 2016’s election. At the end of we can only hope that Donald Trump gets to say his famous line to many thousands of overpaid government workers and looters off the tax payer by telling them “they’re fired,” so that the job can be done correctly from the White House for maybe the first time in history. It is the only way I see out of this mess and honestly the success of The Apprentice more than qualifies Trump to perform the task. But by that same measure, Obama isn’t qualified to scalp tickets to a Bears game in Chicago from a street corner.

Columbus Did Not Discover America: Indians are not “Native Americans”–understanding the infancy of archaeology
I’ve said it before, George Lucas has left his mark on the world not as a great filmmaker and creator of franchises like Star Wars and Indiana Jones—but on the world of archaeology and anthropology—which is what he originally wanted to be when he grew up. Archaeology as a science is a very young profession.
It was really immature, and scientifically stupid to take the young field of archaeology and declare that everything discovered in the first half of the 20th Century guided largely by the Smithsonian would declare the history of the world for all time. There just wasn’t enough evidence in the young field and not enough people doing the investigations. To take a few finds from Howard Carter and declare for all time that “The West” understood the history of the world and that the case was closed to protect religious politics and university prestige from further discoveries was just a mistake. There is a lot more to archaeology than that and our history as a human race. The evidence is abundant that no history book is 100% correct. It is really only because of George Lucas that further questions have been asked and thousands of Indiana Jones fans are running around the world uncovering that hidden past even when the politics of our societies is attempting to castigate them for doing so.
For instance, in the case of the above video, where it is quite clear that the Minoans were in America during a time well before Aristotle was having debates about individuality over collective Republicanism with Plato cultures were rising and falling in America many thousands of years before Columbus ever found a map of the ocean routes to what he thought was China from black market vendors in Calcutta that found itself hidden from the public in Portugal. That’s a story I’ve told before, and is only relevant here because it points to the tip of an iceberg of basic archaeological foundations that are deservedly being tossed out the window as the evidence dictates. Columbus didn’t discover America. He only rediscovered it for Europe and the Roman Catholic Church—the rest of the world already knew about the “New World” and had been traveling there for a long time.
The first sign of evidence is that there are accents to Cherokee Indian speech that reflect regional infusion from the eastern Mediterranean cultures. I often talk about the giants found in American mounds—people standing eight feet to nine feet tall who were in North America well before all the known Indian tribes now documented. I have also written quite extensively of my disgust that the Miamisburg Mound near my home has been virtually untouched by modern science and had a massive government project set up around it preventing proper excavation techniques. CLICK HERE TO REVIEW. I have also written about my extreme disgust about what happened to the Nework Mound complex just east of Columbus, Ohio. Of course Columbus is named after Christopher and was established to preserve the European version of historical discovery. So the way early settlers around Columbus dealt with the strange mounds at Newark was to put a housing development right thought the middle of it, and then put a golf course right through the northern octagon. The Newark sight is a massive archaeological site that has been mostly destroyed by the third major culture to inhabit its terrestrial placement. I say third because the European migrants only recently replaced the Hopewell and Adena cultures that had been second-handers to the primary culture that built the mounds and had artifacts that were clearly from the same region as the archaeology found in the Tennessee Valley.
I have even went so far to show in great detail how the entire city of Lexington, Kentucky was built on top of an ancient city that would have been much more at home in the Tigris and Euphrates, area than what is typically associated with the American Indian. I have covered the mysterious archaeological evidence found inside a major mound for which the center of downtown Cincinnati was built on top of, and is presently found in the nearby museum—mysteriously placed but completely unidentifiable by current scientific understanding. A very good argument that the current highway system of I-75 is one of the most mysterious lines of road built anywhere in the world could be made. Not only did it give us Kentucky Fried Chicken during its construction but it shows an almost human memory of a trade route that used to connect all these archaeological regions across a vast span of American frontier thousands of years before known history has attributed anything logical occurring before the nomad culture of the Indians were discovered in North America from 1492 to 1850.
A study of Indian myths and legends are all that’s left of an obvious advanced culture that spanned the entire world before the philosophy of Confucius emphasized personal and governmental morality in China during 551 – 479 BC. There were cultures in America referred to only in the Bible’s missing Book of Enoch that had been around for many millennia and had risen and fallen following the Vico cycle. The Indians were obviously part of that cycle and were capturing that earlier period through their mythologies, which they interpreted the best they could as a second-handed society of nomads.
So there is a lot of work to do, and without George Lucas, I don’t think there would be so much independent investigation which is uncovering all these marvelous revelations occurring outside of academia. I’m not against academia, they are most poised to do the work, but they have not been open to the evidence pouring in from finds all over the world, and they have too much of a relationship with government censorship obviously motivated to preserve their version of history—likely to protect the religious foundations of their societies, whether that be European pride, or American Christianity. Many of the most important archaeological sites around the world are off-limits because they exists in war-torn areas always brimming with political mismanagement that often looks to be to be deliberate. Whether it’s the ISIS destruction of ancient cities in the Middle East, or the communism which has hidden Cambodia from legitimate investigation by a sex trade industry that flourishes to keep legitimate investigators away from the vile horror often associated with Phnom Penh.
http://www.cnn.com/interactive/2013/12/world/cambodia-child-sex-trade/
Communism is a big part of the problem; try getting a dig permit in China where there is a lot of untouched archaeological research that needs to be conducted—which looks to reflect much of what has been found in North America. Look at Central and South America where poverty from socialism has destroyed those economies leaving people desperate to make a basic living for themselves. Only really seasoned travelers like Josh Gates—whom I think is a wonderful person often seen on the Travel Channel, can go to such places and resist the temptation to embark on the debauchery of a people who would sell their entire futures in exchange for a piece of bread—then stay for years studying archaeological evidence that no university in the civilized world wants to publish, for fear of it tarnishing their relationships with the British Museum, the Louvre, or the Smithsonian. In the United States we can’t even get a reasonable excavation of the Miamisburg Mound by nearby University of Dayton, or the Great Serpent Mound by Ohio University, Athens, or the University of Cincinnati—let alone why no legitimate research into Shambhala in the Himalayas is taking place.
Do I believe that it was Minoans who were in America during that Archaic period? I think there is lots of evidence that shows that they, or a culture that either spawned them, or the other way around was directly involved in trade between China, North America, and the Middle East likely 10,000 years ago and many of the cultures of that period have either been built over by successors or remain hidden by years of erosion. They are right in front of our faces, but we do not see it because of modern religion and government vice. The cause for instance of Cambodian sex trafficking is their authoritarian rule and history with communism. As a French colony—which is a first world socialist utopia in Europe—the people were conquered and left to communism, which crushed their economy leaving families to sell their children to the sex trade. The West keeps it going because they want access to the young virgin children which prevents any real science from occurring there by guilt of association. Anybody with a trip to Phnom Penh on their passport feels they have to explain to people at a museum fundraiser that they were only there for “work” not sex with children. So no legitimate scientist wants to spend years studying Ankor Wat, but for the occasional photographer who goes there to get the fantastic pictures of a culture long gone and mysteriously sophisticated. The ones who do don’t get much of a voice on the world stage of academia—by design. We are led to believe that such societies were not connected to places like Cahokia on the Mississippi River in North America, or the Tigres in the Middle East—but was a standalone culture that was a self-contained Hindu religion shut off from the world by terrain.
The lesson here of course is that one century of archaeology was not enough. We really can’t formulate the history of the human race with just a few decades of a young scientific field. Thanks to George Lucas, he pulled the restrictor plate off the science through imagination and now there are a lot of people like Josh Gates exploring the world living out their internal fantasies of being like Indiana Jones. And that’s a great thing—because we deserve to understand who were are and where we are going. But one thing is certain, Christopher Columbus did not discover the “New World” and the Indians were not “Native Americans.” They came from someplace else as well and took over sites from a culture that had risen and fallen in the United States well before they built their first mythology for Tirawa—The One Above from the Pawnee Indian tribe. Following the Vico cycle, the Pawnee like all the others were second-handers to a culture that had receded into a primitive state only to become nomads once again leaving a culture to clamor at the truth only through myths and legends. But our true history is still being uncovered—and established archaeology is only just now getting started. The history books will not be complete for several thousand years going forward—that is if we can avoid the Vico cycle ourselves. That is the challenge of our present states. Hopefully we can learn from that hidden history before it’s too late for us as well and we are reduced to a fragmented regional memory of a future country who thinks they understand the human race because they uncovered a copy of Star Wars under 50 feet of soil and reported to the government then that they have it all figured out.
To substantiate what I have said, click all the links in the text above and you will find dear reader enough free information to fill several books. Then watch all the videos and you will discover enough evidence to last a lifetime, and it will change how you see everything. I promise–all you have to do is look and read for yourself. The evidence is more than abundant.

Bullies of the Beltway: Standing with Trump and Arpaio to do the right thing
To further illustrate the level of the fight we are facing in 2016 have a look at this 2011 video of the White House Correspondence dinner. The first video is of Barack Obama roasting Donald Trump and the second is of Seth Myers from Saturday Night Live doing the same. The issue of tension was that Trump had been the one to push for Obama to release his birth certificate—which forced the White House to finally do it after stonewalling for over three years. It was quite a mystery and gave rise to the “birther movement.” Trump after a lot of persistence pushed, and pushed, and pushed until a document was produced leading to the victory lap in front of the media at the special 2011 engagement roasting Trump who was forced to sit stone faced in the middle of the action and take it.
But that wasn’t the end of the story. Sheriff Arpaio from Arizona put together an independent group of people to analyze the released birth certificate and what they discovered was that the document Obama’s people released was a fake created recently, and not in the year of the president’s birth. All of this was reported of course reported by me, CLICK HERE to review. The rest of the media relegated the material as “conspiracy theory.” For some reason, they didn’t want to know, as a collective entity—they wanted to believe that Obama was something that he wasn’t. And when he was caught lying, only a few really held his feet to the fire making them easy targets like Trump was at that White House Correspondence dinner in 2011. The purpose of that roasting was to show others what happens to people who dare to take on the Bullies of the Beltway.
All that seems like ancient history now—Obama won his election in 2012, and Trump decided not to run for president that year against him. It seemed for a long time that only Trump and Arpaio were the only legitimate voices willing to yell against the tide that something was really wrong with President Obama. Shortly after the 2012 election, we had the IRS scandal with Lois Lerner involving the White House, and then we had Hillary Clinton’s Benghazi hearings featuring her poor decisions leading to that disaster. Then we had the destruction of Hillary’s emails on her private server so the scandals and stories mounted up to such a degree that everyone forgot about the birth certificate issue being a forgery. The White House had produced a forged document and passed it off in a way that was more concerning than all the mysterious reasons that Obama refused to release it in the first place—which was always troubling. I mean if you and I signed up for a new job, they will demand that you produce a driver’s license and/or a birth certificate to satisfy their screening criteria. Becoming president of the United States is a pretty important job, so at least a birth certificate should have always been a high priority. Yet it wasn’t and the president avoided it, and when pressed by Trump—day after day after day for several years, the White House finally managed to produce a document that could only have been created in the modern age—certainly not in the early 1960s when such technology wasn’t even invented yet to produce a computer generated layered document instead of a scanned replicate of an original. If you and I were to scan our birth certificate into a computer program such as Adobe, you’d get a single flat layer of imagery. There would be no way to separate the fields of what we scanned because the computer would have recognized only the image scanned from the source. In short, if the document had been scanned into a computer like it was claimed, there would be no way to manipulate the various fields within the document presented by the White House. The Obama birth certificate was a fake produced under great pressure by Trump. In spite of all that evidence, Trump was laughed at by just about everyone. Trump being a guy who saw a fight and the depth of that conflict knew what he had to do to clear his name—and that was to run for President in 2016 so that he could work from the top position to solve some of these diabolical problems. And that brings us to the present where Trump is way ahead in the polls and poised to be the Republican nominee in 2016 to run directly against Hillary Clinton. The people who presented that forged document among other scandalous cover-ups are terrified of Trump in the White House, because it’s obvious that he’ll expose everyone for everything to prove his point.
I took a lot of flak for supporting Trump for president so quickly in July of 2015—I do occasionally cover conspiracies and strange phenomena, but I’m not a conspiracy theorist. When I say something it holds up—and a review of the many things I’ve covered will show that to be the case. I know that something is very wrong with our political class—which extends over directly into our entertainment culture. We have real criminals in very powerful positions and they need to be removed. Yet congress showed no desire to take on the Obama birth certificate and most in the media completely ignored the issue. Even people like Glenn Beck stayed away from the “birther” issue no matter how justified it was. This left Trump and Arpaio to hang out on a limb with all their hard-fought evidence as the media proclaimed, if a tree falls in the forest and nobody was there to hear it—it didn’t happen. The media collectively refused to hear the tree fall on the Obama birth certificate leaving Obama to rake Trump over the coals at that 2011 correspondence dinner. Trump fuming to do the right thing at his first opportunity. I believe that Trump made his decision hell or high water to capture the White House after that roast.
Arpaio was sued by the Holder Justice Department soon after the birth certificate report and Trump stopped short of running for president so that he could solidify his position. If he was going to do it he’d do so from a position of strength. Trump spent the following three years doing just that. Knowing all this, that’s why I was so quick to join Trump for his White House run. He’s doing what I’d do myself if I were in such a position, and that is to treat the whole thing as a war that had to be won. When Trump said he viewed running against Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton as a war for the White House, this is what he’s talking about—an establishment that seeks completely to control everything political with the banter of school yard bullies who determine the trends of the day with raw force and mass persuasion. These people who have been occupying the White House for a number of years, people like the Bush family and the Clintons have the whole system rigged in their favor and the press eats out of their hands. Obama is associated with that culture by default. The same system that ignored his birth certificate problems allowed Lois Lerner to get by with IRS abuse and a massive cover-up of the top-secret emails destroyed and utilized on Hillary Clinton’s private server. I know how Trump feels to be the only one speaking out for what’s right.
But here’s the secret dear reader, these are bullies who are running our country right now—it’s not Trump who is the bad guy—as much as they’d like to make him appear that way. Just like in grade school when you stand up to them, they have nothing to throw back at you. They can threaten to beat you up with IRS audits, they can harass you at work, through the media, and they can follow around your loved ones and harass them if it doesn’t work on you. They can intimidate and harass you until you do as they are doing—comply with the orders of the collective. Well, I’ve had everything mentioned above done to me and my family and I have done just what I did when I was in grade school, which is the basic mentality of most people working in government—they are still 15-year-old kids looking for a date to the homecoming dance. The entire Beltway culture is made up of those types of intellects and they have only one game plan—harass individuals who flock away from the herd. Well, when I was in grade school, there are plenty of stories of what I did to bullies and I never yielded to them. As an adult, I dealt with bullies in the same fashion. When they came after me—which they did for over 15 years—during my entire 20s up until I was about 35 and had essentially outlasted them—I fought them the way Arpaio and Trump did over the birther issue. What’s right is right—not what the masses accept as right. Right has to be the priority in every circumstance, especially when it’s obvious that there is a massive cover-up going on. Somebody has to be willing to stand up to fight for what’s right, even at great personal risk—because the real bullies have to be stood up against.
I’ve been called a bully myself. In fact I hear it more now than I ever did. I have more expression in the English language and natural verbal ability to sidestep the bully accusation than many people who are similar in personality to me, but are functioning without as many tools in the intellectual tool box. But what I want, I get, and Trump is made of the same stuff. When he is called a bully, it’s because the real bullies have been denied the ability to beat people up without mercy, to impose on them the imposition of collective sentiment. But that’s where serious crimes are hidden—behind the “Bullies of the Beltway.” They only make fun of Trump because they have no other means to exact their will. The secret to beating them is to be tougher, and rougher than they are. Because they are liars, they are scum bags, and they are maniacal fools fit for defeat and only that. They deserve to have their asses kicked. They deserve to be pushed and to have the tables turned on them, because it’s the only way that we get our country back in the hands of the competent. We have to start by getting the liars and Bullies of the Beltway out of our White House and into the gutters where they truly belong.
You can’t appease a bully. You can only kick the shit out of them when they challenge you. They might cry about it, but they put themselves in that position to begin with. When they do come, that’s the only way. That is why I support Trump. He has a long history of doing the right thing even when it costs him to do it. Because he’s learned how to deal with bullies-you do it directly and with great fanfare. And you outlast them because in the end, they have to hide from the public and that is their true weakness. When it comes to beating Hillary Clinton, the only way to capture the White House for Republicans is to expose Democrats one great weakness—their necessity to manipulate the public from their true intentions. And in the fight for what’s right, that is what I look forward most in 2016. For that reason, it is a Happy New Year. The best thing we can do is support those who are willing to fight the Bullies of the Beltway because in that way, you are making a decision to not be pushed around any longer. When Bush says that Trump is not a serious candidate, he is talking about playing the Beltway game of surrendering to extortion by those bullies in power. But its time for a new game. For the evidence, just watch the above videos completely, and you’ll understand the enormity of the problem before us and the very nature of the elections of 2016. We won’t get a second chance any time soon.

Corporation of Disney Versus Sole Proprietorship of George Lucas: Why the new Star Wars is so terrible
With all the accolades given to the new Star Wars film The Force Awakens I take a bit of pride in being one of the very few to point out the obvious problems with it, and the gross neglect it represents on not only American culture, but international civilization. Star Wars has a responsibility provided to it by its half century long quest to play that part with the human race, so when it takes that role for granted, it is the job of people like me to point it out. Anybody can do such a thing after others have already jumped on the bandwagon. Presently, The Force Awakens is the fastest movie to hit $1 billion in global sales and it’s still moving along at a respectable rate. By every box-office measure, The Force Awakens is a glorious success. Yet I’m saying that it’s not successful, which to some may appear baffling. Here’s why, Star Wars surrendered what it was to become something that it isn’t and that deduction can be reduced to a very simple social understanding of how things work outside of a mother’s womb. To get the gist of what’s wrong with The Force Awakens watch the very interesting reviews shown below. Watch them all, they tell the whole story. I’ll go a step further in my explanation, but it’s a good place to begin.
One of the most difficult things a job creator can do is make decisions to eliminate the jobs of the people who count on you. It is excessively hard—I think it’s one of the hardest things a human mind does in a capitalist society—because a means to a living is the sustenance used to survive from day-to-day. George Lucas wanted to retire at 70 years old but he had all these employees that he felt responsible for, so he went looking for a way to keep them all busy so that he could retire in good conscience feeling he did what was right by them. He sold his company to Disney hoping that it was the closest company to his own methods that would respect his former property and do well for an entirely new generation. I was a supporter of it, until I saw the results. It would have done more people more good to just leave Star Wars alone and laid-off all the Lucasfilm employees. Laying off 2000 Lucasfilm employees would have been painful, but the results have been worse. Because in destroying Star Wars, it has taken away the good meaning it has possessed to literally hundreds of millions of people who now consider it something of a religion.
When the sale of Lucasfilm to Disney took place, many proclaimed that it was a sale to the dark side, but they said so without really understanding why. Corporations have a tendency to be viewed as evil, while individuals are given great latitude for forgiveness. This is the heart of the problem. As a fan of unlimited capitalism, I should be very supportive of corporations—which I am in that they provide jobs and great products to a free marketplace. But, they are often very socialist in their nature and their employees bring that mentality with them to the voting booth. For instance, a worker at P&G or GE works in an environment that does not promote personal growth and individuality—they work in very team oriented environments where the greater good of the company is often the focus. This is a standard in most corporations—so when Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton expresses the values of socialism most voters are already receptive to it because they live that life within the corporate world. Corporations are collective based organizations that are often top-heavy and loaded with too much management at the back of the train defined by the Metaphysics of Quality. Not enough people at the front providing leadership, and too many in the back which slows down the train from true productivity. To hide this problem, corporations hire lobbyists to work K-Street in Washington on their behalf to prevent competition, so that the corporation can stay alive longer at the expense of more capitalist invention.
I’m not a fan of corporations, but I am a fan of the people who lead them, individuals like George Lucas, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and the original Walt Disney—among many others. To me, once those strong leaders leave their corporations, everyone who follows are second handers. This is why I am a fan of people like Carl Icahn who is the original corporate raider—who defined the term, “hostile takeover” by purchasing the stock of failing corporations and inserting new management with real leadership to make a sizable profit. The introduction of competition to the corporate world makes everyone better and more honest and is needed in a capitalist society. Without that behavior, you only get degrees of socialism which is terrible because it forces people to behave as collective entities proving detrimental to individual integrity.
Star Wars was always about the power of the individual, Luke Skywalker being the only hope for the Force to overthrow the emperor, Han Solo to always be functioning just outside the organized systems of the rebellion long enough to save everyone, and Obi-Wan residing in a desert all alone as the last of his kind to preserve goodness for a new generation. Even the robot Artoo Detoo functions as a rogue individualist often breaking protocol to do what he thinks is right as C3PO representing the corporate world of doing as programmed berates him for comic relief. In The Empire Strikes Back when Luke senses that Han and Leia are being tortured on Cloud City Yoda tells the young Jedi that he must stay and not be lured into a trap if he honors what they fight for. The designation is clear, the relief of collective pain is not more important than the value of an individual who alone has the power to save the galaxy. That is powerful stuff and why I along with millions of others have been a fan of Star Wars for over three decades.
The Force Awakens is a corporate movie made by the second handers of George Lucas and Walt Disney. They are corporate minds who think in terms of sacrifice and the greater good before individual integrity, just as any corporation resents the individualist–those who do what they want in the corner cubical, and does not socialize during lunch with others and doesn’t follow orders from their superiors. Rey the strong female who is obviously Jaina Solo from the Expanded Universe miraculously knows how to do everything which is a problem that many people have with the film upon viewing. Many are willing to suspend their disbelief because the female hero is such a strong and compelling character that viewers are willing to overlook the problem initially. The dilemma is that the characters in The Force Awakens are just along for the ride. The Force is the hero of this movie and all the characters are subservient to it. Rey is the victim of the sword that finds her, not because she finds it—her role is a passive participation in the adventure which is a direct violation of the “Hero’s Journey” that all Star Wars movies embody to some degree. The Force uses her to get through impossible situations like flying the Falcon and fighting Kylo Ren at the end of the film. She doesn’t survive them because she is an active participant. She’s just “going with the flow,” and yielding to a mysterious Force that is guiding her actions. Those are aspects of Star Wars that have always been weak, easily overshadowed by the efforts of Han Solo.
In the original films The Force was something to be listened to, but according to Obi-Wan, it also obeyed your commands—as an individual. In The Force Awakens The Force is doing all the heavy lifting which is a corporate view of what Obi-Wan said in the film A New Hope, “there is no such thing as luck.” This indicates that all the heroics of Han Solo in the past movies were not because of his skill as an individual pilot, or a decision that was made at a key time, but was due to The Force working through him. This cheapens Star Wars considerably into a religion instead of a myth building tool to encourage people to follow their personal bliss. It is the difference between a company run by a strong individual, and a corporation ran by a board of directors and a CEO as their representative. One is an individual enterprise; the other is a collective based entity.
In time, once the fun of a new Star Wars movie fades, the impact that the films had will fade considerably as they will lose their meaning due to this corporate interpretation of The Force as opposed to the one that George Lucas nurtured. The corporation puts up memos on a bulletin board and expects everyone to be appeased and to serve the needs of the collective entity—no matter who it is. A company ran by a strong individual personally speaks to everyone and gives them guidance in developing their own individuality for the good of the company. It is a slight distinction that makes all the difference in the world regarding the end result. Clearly George Lucas understands that distinction, and Disney as an organization collectively based, does not. That is why The Force Awakens is a failure even though on paper immediately it appears successful. Its mythology has been tampered with and is now changed forever—for the worse. The message is one now of collectivism as opposed to individuality and that makes it very dangerous—and vile.
Now you should understand dear reader why you felt that The Force Awakens was a bad movie, but didn’t quite know how or why. It looked like Star Wars, sounded like Star Wars, had the same characters as the original Star Wars—but it wasn’t Star Wars. It turned the overall message away from the rebellion of freedom fighters fighting for an individualized galactic republic and put the emphasis on collectivism and the reach and authority of corporations and the eventual tenacity to grind away everything that stands in their way. And there isn’t much anybody can do about it but wait for some unseen Force to tell us what to do. To those broken by corporate socialism into waiting for permission to use the rest room or get their vacations approved by a superior, they love Rey in the film because it’s all they can hope for in their lives after being beaten by collectivism for many years into no other option but to hope that they’ll win the lottery or gain an inheritance to earn their freedom from the grind. But for hard-core Star Wars fans, Han Solo was the self-determined individual who functioned heroically not due to special powers or hooky religions—but by his own actions. And in The Force Awakens, they killed off that character—for the “greater good.” The message couldn’t have been clearer from the corporation known as Disney.

The Open Society of George Soros: Understanding forces at war with American sovereignty
I know long time readers here understand, but many of the gaining masses have not been thinking about the inner workings of mass global conspiracy and the desires of people like George Soros to create an “open society” meaning essentially a global population governed by a solitary socialist government—likely a spawn of the current United Nations. But they should have. After all, it’s the Holidays, and when it’s not this particular festive time of year, its Halloween, Thanksgiving, it’s the Superbowl, Memorial Day, the Fourth of July—it’s always something fun to distract our attention from the insurrection of jealous socialists and their designs of international tyranny.
These global insurgents have a lot of money and there are many in the United States press and entertainment groups who want some of what they have to fall in their lap—so they do what Soros wants to get it. Much of the politics Donald Trump is fighting against—in both parties—is a system greatly influenced by internationalists like Soros and their open society networks. The reason that outsiders like Trump are so popular is that a large portion of the American population is learning, as people like me have said all along, that the system is broken at all levels in government, from the education system, to the Executive Branch and we need to fix it starting by getting people like Soros out of American politics for our own good. Here is a letter from Soros to his supporters warning against supporting politicians like Trump and Cruz sent between the Christmas and New Year Holiday of 2015.
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
George published the essay below in the Guardian today. He argues that we must not give into the fear created by terrorism. All best, Michael Vachon
The terrorists and demagogues want us to be scared. We mustn’t give in. The Guardian By George Soros December 28, 2015 Open societies are always endangered. This is especially true of America and Europe today, as a result of the terrorist attacks in Paris and elsewhere, and the way that America and Europe, particularly France, have reacted to them. Jihadi terrorist groups such as Islamic State and al-Qaida have discovered the achilles heel of our western societies: the fear of death.
Through horrific attacks and macabre videos, the publicists of Isis magnify this fear, leading otherwise sensible people in hitherto open societies to abandon their reason. Scientists have discovered that emotion is an essential component of human reasoning. That discovery explains why jihadi terrorism poses such a potent threat to our societies: the fear of death leads us and our leaders to think – and then behave – irrationally. Science merely confirms what experience has long shown: when we are afraid for our lives, emotions take hold of our thoughts and actions, and we find it difficult to make rational judgments. Fear activates an older, more primitive part of the brain than that which formulates and sustains the abstract values and principles of open society. The open society is thus always at risk from the threat posed by our response to fear. A generation that has inherited an open society from its parents will not understand what is required to maintain it until it has been tested and learns to keep fear from corrupting reason. Jihadi terrorism is only the latest example. The fear of nuclear war tested the last generation, and the fear of communism and fascism tested my generation. The jihadi terrorists’ ultimate goal is to convince Muslim youth worldwide that there is no alternative to terrorism. And terrorist attacks are the way to achieve that goal, because the fear of death will awaken and magnify the latent anti-Muslim sentiments in Europe and America, inducing the non-Muslim population to treat all Muslims as potential attackers.
And that is exactly what is happening. The hysterical anti-Muslim reaction to terrorism is generating fear and resentment among Muslims living in Europe and America. The older generation reacts with fear, the younger one with resentment; the result is a breeding ground for potential terrorists. This is a mutually reinforcing, reflexive process.
How ca n it be stopped and reversed? Abandoning the values and principles underlying open societies and giving in to an anti-Muslim impulse dictated by fear certainly is not the answer, though it may be difficult to resist the temptation. I experienced this personally when I watched the last Republican presidential debate; I could stop myself only by remembering that it must be irrational to follow the wishes of your enemies. To remove the danger posed by jihadi terrorism, abstract arguments are not enough; we need a strategy for defeating it. The challenge is underscored by the fact that the jihadi phenomenon has been with us for more than a generation. Indeed, gaining a proper understanding of it may be impossible. But the attempt must be made.
Consider the Syrian conflict, which is the root cause of the migration problem that is posing an existential threat to the European Union as we know it. If it was resolved, the world would be in better shape. It is important to recognise that Isis is operating from a position of weakness. While it is spreading fear in the world, its hold on its home ground is weakening. The United Nations security council has unanimously adopted a resolution against it, and the leaders of Isis are aware that their days in Iraq and Syria are numbered. Of course, the outlook for Syria remains highly uncertain, and the conflict there cannot be understood or tackled in isolation. But one idea shines through crystal clear: it is an egregious mistake to do what the terrorists want us to do. That is why, as 2016 gets underway, we must reaffirm our commitment to the principles of open society and resist the siren song of the likes of Donald Trump and Ted Cruz, however hard that may be.
The intelligent person who stands for capitalism and American sovereignty should do exactly the opposite of what George Soros wants. That is the reason there is panic within the established parties, because the trend of our day is to move away from any influence these international activists might have had over American politics, which is quite an extensive network. From the push for marijuana legalization to open borders and deviant sexual practices, the strategy of Soros has always been the destruction of individual Americans and the rise of a global government. The ISIS threat was largely created by the Obama administration to help with this open border policy. You don’t see Syrian refugees fleeing to the UAE or Saudi Arabia. They are being moved into Europe and America to facilitate multiculturalism—essentially a break-down of individual sovereignty between nations to usher in a global population without distinction. The influence of Soros can be seen in everything from the latest Star Wars film A Force Awakens, to every pot legalization initiative on each state ballot. And he’s not alone. It’s a massive movement that despises the United States and its capitalism and it is presently at every level of American culture.
Trump and Cruz are the candidates that can either intellectually withstand this corruption, or financially. I have talked about this being a true war of the billionaires in the United States, Trump and Carl Icahn against Bloomberg, Soros, Mark Zuckerberg, and Buffett—among others. To understand the scope of this battle, you have to think unconventionally. Everything in the middle, the media, entertainment, publishing, corporate American, international trade—virtually everything are pawns in the chess game between these interests, because they have the money to play the game—whereas the rest of us don’t. As older Americans with a history of interest in patriotism, I believe Carl Icahn and Donald Trump are sincerely interested in preserving America’s place as the dominate force in global markets. Everyone else—literally, has placed their bets on global unified government at the expense of American sovereignty. Those are the words of ill ease behind George Soros and his subtle letter above. If you want to hit Soros in the pocket-book and take down these global insurrections by several pegs, you must vote for Donald Trump. Nobody else stands a chance—and hopefully in his wake Ted Cruz will find a place eventually in the Executive Office. But not until Trump has cleaned house and put in place a proper management system that puts American interests above the global billionaires like George Soros and their open society push. There is nothing wrong with multiculturalism, so long as those other cultures are aspiring to be like Americans. We must not surrender our values to the insurrections paid for by George Soros.
George Soros and his alliances have created the terrorism we are all dealing with. But the American reaction in supporting Trump is not something Soros or anybody else counted on as a result. Their plan is backfiring, and it is up to us to make sure it blows up in his face—as he deserves.

The Choice Between Good and Bad: Something special that nobody else these days will give you
Not to continue bashing the Disney Company every day, but because of their placement within the pantheon of cultural standards, they make themselves such a large target—by default. Matt Clark and I in the video clip below had a rather powerful show for talk radio on WAAM in Ann Arbor, Michigan. I like that station even though it’s a small market enterprise because it’s still a family business for them and they are real patriots who believe in traditional America as opposed to the giant conglomerates at Clear Channel which are failing by the business quarter. It could be said that I am a professional at lots of things in life and one thing that is consistent across my résumé in all endeavors is that I specialize culture building. I understand the signs of decline and I can read the upticks—and many of the reasons I have been positive in regard to Disney is because of its history in preserving traditional American values. But, over the last two decades they have been increasingly a progressive organization and that makes them a prime concern for me regarding culture building not only within the United States but also in regard to the entire world. That is the nature of the conversation that Matt Clark and I pondered during his radio show which will appear on 1600 WAAM during the weekend of January 2nd 2016 at 1 PM. If you’d like to hear the entire two-hour segment CLICK HERE.
I don’t think there is another radio or television broadcast where such an in-depth analysis of the situation concerning our modern problems can be heard. I was trained by Joseph Campbell to read and understand mythology—the same place that George Lucas learned it from, so I am uniquely positioned to provide commentary that nobody on cable, network, or radio news can provide regarding Star Wars, terrorism and the cultural responsibility of the Disney company to resist putting metal detectors at their entrance and banning toy guns from their properties. What is wrong in Disney and of course throughout the world is not related to security, it is in cultural values, which is what Matt and I focused on. Matt is in fact such a good radio guy that he knows how to set up the topics to extract it from me—which is why these conversations are so interesting.
The problem starts with culture and understanding what makes it, is it a reactive thing built from didactic desires, or is it a product of intellectual necessity? I would propose the later while Disney is currently functioning from the former. They believe that because they lack a strong CEO type who understands the complexity of culture building the way Walt Disney or George Lucas innately did. As a company of second-handers they have had to mimic the behavior of their former leaders, like Lucas and Disney, they are clueless in understanding how the responsibility for building culture falls on their shoulders. Similarly, they are clueless to understand when there is trouble how to deal with a crises. Because they are second-handers, people who live through others for their sustenance, they assume that somebody understands a situation better than they do, leaving them prone to put too much trust into governments and other collective forces to guide their decisions. That is why they prefer committees and boards of directors to make decisions instead of strong individualized leadership.
Disney made a huge mistake with The Force Awakens, every toy and commercial mostly featured the bad guy from the latest Star Wars movie to sell those products. In a desire to recover their investment into the film franchise and to get their market projections, they rely on marketing the villains as a way to guarantee their financial expectations. The net result is that the social impact on the population in general will be negative—kids are more interested in playing the bad guy when interacting with their peers than the good guys, which is a major problem. Just a few decades ago kids used to fight over who was going to be the good guy when playing among each other. Now nobody wants to be the good guy, and that is the fault of culture. What makes up that culture is every progressive who has pushed for less heroic characters in movies giving good reviews to flawed heroes as opposed to the squeaky clean types who don’t drink, smoke, or have sex before marriage. Our culture through music, movies, and television have put bad behavior on a pedestal and criticized good behavior. So it shouldn’t be any surprise that young kids fight over being the bad guy when playing instead of being a good guy. When there is nothing marketed for a new Star Wars movie but the bad guys, and the good guys are killed, or appear to be losing all the time, the behavior that children will mimic in their daily lives will reflect those priorities.
When Disney makes a film, or a television story of any kind, they must be careful not to allow the good guys to appear subservient to the bad guys in any way. The progressive experimentation with the gray areas of life is not healthy. It might make some Santa Monica bar slut feel better about her decisions in life for being a sperm receptacle during her twenties and early thirties, but it will not help young girls in the future not make similar mistakes. Hollywood is full of these young women who work in the industry and party at the bars around Wilshire Blvd and they think they are the smartest people in the world because they manage to show their boobs to Quentin Tarantino at a party, who is essentially the same little boy growing up in Knoxville, Tennessee that he has always been. I like Tarantino, we share a taste for Sergio Leone movies and car chases, but he’s not very sophisticated as a filmmaker. Yet because his movies feature good guys who go bad, often, and bad guys who do good, there is mass appeal to the gutter sluts and social misfits of our culture. But Tarantino currently sets the standard on Wilshire and those slutty Santa Monica types who put on heels during the day and strip it off for anybody at night create market value based on their intellectual assumptions. Marketing executives assume that those Hollywood filmmakers and the agents who dangle from the industry know what they are doing, so they follow right along, and soon the entire industry is copying off each other because nobody has an original idea about anything because nobody dare go against the trends of the day which are often set in those Santa Monica, and New York City bars by skanks, whores, and insecure social climbers.
Meanwhile a kid at Wal-Mart wants a new Star Wars toy and they see Kylo Ryn on the cover who looks like he’s always beating the good guys—otherwise he wouldn’t be featured so prominently on the marketing material. After five or six years of playing the bad guy, when the kid hits adolescence and has to make decisions about, drugs, and individual integrity, they stand on the foundations created for them by the toys they played with and the lessons they learned in their youth. If the message is confusing, that bad guys sometimes aren’t so bad and that good guys are often just as bad as good guys, then that person will grow up to be a messed up adult. And before anybody says they disagree, just look around at the adults you know dear reader, the world is full of such people—and this is how they were made. The instruction for proper intellectual value and social relationships is directly built from the type of stories that we tell our kids. It’s OK to market those stories under a capitalist banner, but there is a responsibility in doing so.
Now, I know the next thing the curious reader here will say is, if I had the opportunity to make millions of dollars selling stories featuring bad guys over good guys I would as well. Well, I have a long history with this, a background that had personal instruction by Sol Stein, Linda Nagata, and even a little help from Skip Press in putting me directly in contact with Steven Spielberg’s agent for a project I was working on. I have looking back on it a lot of experience with Hollywood, so I know what I’m talking about and let me say this. When given the opportunity to have a lot of money by writing bad guys, or sticking with my good guys, I have never surrendered my position. It may not be what the market desires right now, but I refuse to participate in the perpetuation of evil by promoting bad guys over good—and by supporting the gray over black and white morality, it accomplishes just as bad of an end result. I have forgone personal wealth to do the right thing, so I expect others to do so as well—especially the Disney Company. I’ve known quite a lot of those skanks, and whores in Hollywood and believe me, they aren’t all women—and I turned them away several times—because it was the right thing to do. So for the same reasons, I don’t have a lot of sympathy for those who do sell-out for some quick money.
As talked about with Matt Clark, the cause of the problems in our culture will not be solved with metal detectors and gun restrictions—the source is in broken culture perpetuated irresponsibility by the weakest and worst that our society has produced. If we really want to be safe and to have a good and productive society then we must focus on separating the good guys from the bad and avoiding designations of gray and muddied fantasies of equality where the bad are placed at the same level as the virtuous. The root cause of most of our societal misery around the world is in this very simple concept. And the only way out of it is to be good. That is why during my next show on WAAM I will focus on just that type of concept and will offer society something they won’t get anywhere else. A path toward virtue in America once again—be sure to tune in, because I will promise this, you won’t get this kind of show anywhere in the world in any media format. It will be one of a kind. My path through life is very unique and I am offering those important lessons for those who are best positioned to utilize them. I wouldn’t ask anybody to do what I have not been willing to do myself, if I can make decisions based on ethics for the benefit of culture building, then so can Disney—and everyone in entertainment.

Quick Cal Eilrich on WAAM 1600: Rich Hoffman hosting January 9th 2016
In a capitalist society it was always supposed to be like this, the best and most competitive are supposed to be free to perform at their maximum potential without being restricted by inferior minds. The Internet may have been invented as a means for population control by government influence, but it has turned out to be one of the best aspects of laissez-faire capitalism to emerge essentially since Adam Smith wrote An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations (1776). And in the United States, it has been one of the finest examples of free speech. It allows someone like me, who can run circles around most people with sheer effort to by-pass the gate keepers of the “professional” media to get a message out that would otherwise not be heard. I have known a lot of reporters over the years and I can’t think of any who live the way I do, where they may work 12 hours, read about two hours each day, then turn around and do 2 hours of live radio on WAAM in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Typically, they only do about a quarter of that work per day, and that’s why their reports often are terrible, and lazy. In that regard, largely because of the power of competition, new media, and the productive acquisition of massive amounts of information, I have the opportunity to be on WAAM radio with Matt Clark for three weekends in a row. Matt and I did a live radio show on Wednesday December 23rd which was used for the next two Saturday shows on WAAM 1600. Then on January 9th while Matt is in Disney World for his annual marathon run, I am hosting in his place with a very special guest. If you missed the Wednesday live shown, broadcast around the world, here it is—along with a few sample video clips as teasers of the content. As usual, we covered a lot of ground.

Regarding that special guest, of course when given the opportunity I’m going to give listeners at WAAM exactly what they want. I’ve done plenty of radio in my life, and I’ve listened to talk radio for longer than I’ve participated on the air. As a kid who grew up in sight of The Voice of America radio station towers in Mason, Ohio I understand the power of a voice over the airwaves. I also understand how wonderful it is to work on a car during Saturday afternoon in a well-lit garage next to a double stacked Craftsman tool box full of gadgets and gizmos accumulated over twenty previous Christmas seasons and to listen to the soothing sound of logic from talk radio. Both of my grandparents had farms and constantly had WLW radio on in their barns—it was for them a kind of verbal newspaper that they could listen to as they milked cows or prepped equipment for bailing hay. So to thank the WAAM audience and the technical crew at that fine “independent” radio station which is a rarity these days in the marketplace, I’m going to give listeners a special treat on January 9th at 1 PM. Click the following link to listen live at that time.
If there is trouble at that link for whatever reason, then try this one.
As readers here know, I work very hard—as I always have. I also push myself often by stepping out of my comfort zone. My name is typically equitable with bullwhip work as I am one of the few in the world who have mastered that particular weapon. Bullwhip artists are a very small minority of the global population and I am among the best of them in competency—but—that’s not enough for me. I’m entirely too young to be satisfied with just that on my résumé. It would be safe to do so, and to point at my record of personal successes, my public speaking, my family and a half-dozen other hobbies and say that all those things were enough. But they aren’t. There is something I’ve always wanted to do, but didn’t have the time or resources to apply to it, so it’s always been on the back burner for me, and that is Cowboy Fast Draw. In a lot of ways, I became good at the bullwhips because it was a western art that I could practice in my backyard, or in the neighborhoods I lived in without scaring all the people who lived around me—too much. But I have always loved guns as I have seen them as natural extensions of Adam Smth’s invention of capitalism. While the rest of the world wanted to maintain an aristocracy on production, capitalism freed the best and brightest to conduct their efforts free of restriction, and the gun ensured that personal protection from third-party authoritarian intentions. Much of the anxiety that the world outside the United States has toward capitalism and guns can be traced back to this basic relationship between the two. So I’ve always had a love for guns and wanted to make them a larger part of my daily life.
I recently conquered a project that I had been working very hard on—a business enterprise that was very difficult—and I promised myself that if I got through it to a successful conclusion that I was going to purchase a Ruger Vaquero and take up the skill of Cowboy Fast Draw. I could have done it a few years sooner, but I had to complete one major task before beginning another, so I waited to force myself to complete the targeted intention—which took several years to punch through. I knew some of the shooters from the Ohio Fast Draw Association as they competed next to me at the annual Annie Oakley Western Showcase in Greenville, Ohio each year while I performed with bullwhips. But I wasn’t sure how to get started. The very day that I completed the business task, I purchased my Vaquero. Then I contacted the organization that my guest runs, the Cowboy Fast Draw Association and I joined as a member. Then I purchased a practice shooting lane system, and ordered a custom-made holster from Bob Mernickle.
I was quite impressed by Cal Eilrich, a.k.a Quick Cal who is the executive director of CFDA not just because he is a very accomplished professional shooter, but because he is running Cowboy Fast Draw as an expanding sport that is very organized and well-equipped. As my packages began to arrive from CFDA I was impressed that everything I needed, the .45 casings, the wax bullets, the timers and targets, virtually everything was able to be obtained from CFDA—and everything worked. The quality of the products had the markings of a man who was very meticulous and polished at a field of endeavor and that elevated my interest greatly. Cowboy Fast Draw wasn’t any longer just something I wanted to drive myself into a new skill set, but it was a way of thinking that I considered important to the American way of life. I found out months later that Quick Cal was also a fan of the novel Atlas Shrugged, so I have been able to plunge myself into this new sport with a voracious hunger knowing that the end result falls within my overall philosophy. It wasn’t just another skill to learn, it was a way of life.
Quick Cal has been a competitive shooter since joining the Chicago Colts FDC in 1968, at age 15. He won his first World Championship in 1972 and in 1973 hosted his first contest. He went on to be the Match Director of two National Championships and three World Championships during the 1970s at the Hacienda Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas along with several state and regional tournaments. He served as an officer in the Mid-Western Fast Draw Association, Western Fast Draw Association and served as Chairman of the World Fast Draw Association.
In the 1980s he became very active in Practical Pistol Shooting. While competing at the top-level of the sport he built the largest IPSC club in the country and founded and served 9 years as Match Director of the Western States IPSC Championship in Reno. He was an original Range Master and Instructor for USPSA, while also being a top competitor and earning a spot on the National Team in 1990. He has been a firearms instructor for law enforcement and security companies and still teaches defensive shooting and is a NRA Instructor.
In the late 90s he started getting very involved in SASS and won a national championship as a top shooter. In 1999, he created the original SASS RO Program and served as Chairman of the RO Committee for 9 years, he was inducted into the SASS Hall of Fame in 2011. He also founded a SASS club, The High Plains Drifters, and built a shooting range that is still in use and created and served as Match Director of the Western States CAS Championship for 10 years.
In 2002, Brad Hemmah called Quick Cal for advice on guns and holsters in setting up what was to become CFDA. In 2004, Quick Cal attended the National Championship in Meridian, ID and won the event, and recognized the potential that Cowboy Fast Draw had. Fast Draw had been Quick Cal’s first love in shooting sports, he dreamed as a young man that the sport could somehow become much bigger than it was if only given the chance.
Quick Cal has always believed in giving back to the shooting sports because they have added so much to his life. He now serves as the Director of CFDA and is determined to give the Sport of Cowboy Fast Draw a chance to build itself into an organization that can last for future generations to enjoy.
To learn more about him, here are his résumés in greater detail.
As a fan of talk radio, I know what I like and don’t like on a Saturday afternoon, and likely, you feel the same way. So I promise that this radio show featuring Quick Cal will be entertaining, and informative—and it will be my intention to make it so exciting that you’ll want to join CFDA after our broadcast. I am thankful to Quick Cal because in essence what he gave me which I wasn’t sure about when I got started, was a way to shoot my .45 Vaquero at my home in a pretty suburban setting. The wax bullets and the 209 shotgun primers that are used in Cowboy Fast Draw along with the targeting system utilized make it so I can practice target shooting right in my garage without disturbing my neighbors. I built a special backdrop to keep the bullets contained in a safe way, but the wax bullets do not shoot through plywood, so there is no danger to anybody outside my home. And the noise is about as loud as a well charged cap gun. This makes shooting at home an entirely new reality that everyone can enjoy. A shooting range could be easily set up in a basement or garage so long as practice distances of 15’ to 21’ can be maintained. Where shooting radio shows often get boring is that often the talk is about things that most of the audience can’t participate in. Getting out to a shooting range for a lot of people is difficult. But shooting at your home is something anybody can do, and it’s a wonderful way to expand the usefulness, and participation in the Second Amendment. People tend to value something more if they can participate, and Cowboy Fast Draw allows shooters to partake within the comfort of their own homes and that expansion of utilization is largely an invention of Cowboy Fast Draw under the direction of Quick Cal.

So be sure to tune in on January 9th 2016 at 1 PM on WAAM. If you want to call in during the show dial (734) 971-1600 and we’ll get you on the air. It will be a fun show, and educational, but more than anything, it will make working in the garage, or wherever that much more enjoyable. It’s the kind of show that comes straight out of competition, you won’t get this kind of thing on CNN or Fox, but because of deregulation and the marketplace of the imaginative, you can get it on WAAM and more specifically, the Clarkcast and Matt Clark’s mini, media empire. It is good to push yourself in a free society, and the first step toward that monumental endeavor is to turn on WAAM and listen to an enlightening interview with Quick Cal of the Cowboy Fast Draw Association and enjoy something you won’t get anywhere else.

Why Disney Destroyed Han Solo: Progressive activism and attacking “white, American, family men”
I knew there was trouble on June 3rd 2015 when Marvel comics announced that Han Solo had an ex-wife in its comic #6 issue. I didn’t want to believe it, but after later seeing The Force Awakens, I am 100% sure that what I was watching Disney do was on the scale of the old medieval churches in Europe re-writing history with their printing of Bibles to control the mass population through religion.
http://dorksideoftheforce.com/2015/06/03/meet-sana-solo-han-solos-wife-star-wars-6/
I am quite a believer that the Bible has been revised to such an extent by political forces over the years that it has lost much of its original meaning—so I don’t trust it. One fine example is the missing Book of Enoch which would have been an important part of Genesis. It is not considered by Jews and many other Christian groups to be part of the Biblical “canon” and knowing that one can only wonder what else has been left out, or added to the stories that have made three of the world’s religions, Jews, Christians and Muslims. Like it or not, Star Wars has become something of a religion. Another few hundred years and it will likely have more influence over mass populations than Christianity does today—and that all starts with these seemingly simple stories being shown in our lifetime. So it concerned me greatly when Han Solo was introduced in Marvel #6 with a black wife—which I didn’t believe at the time. My wife and I talked about it a bit, I was then involved in a large motorcycle accident which soaked up a lot of time and attention. I was also involved in a massive international project that was taking a lot of time. But my concern was so great that I stopped buying Star Wars merchandise at that moment. I had been reading the books and comics to alleviate the daily pressure associated with my life. But upon the release of Star Wars #6 under Marvel Comics, I stopped, immediately.
When Marvel took over the comics which were supposedly Pablo Hidalgo approved from the Star Wars story group six months earlier from Dark Horse I was curious that they didn’t show a desire to connect the story material between the two publishing conglomerates. I didn’t let that bother me too much because comics I don’t consider to be as important as novels—especially the New York Times bestselling books that had taken over the Star Wars canon for two decades in a really positive way. But under Disney’s ownership of Marvel they had introduced a black woman to be Han Solo’s wife in an effect to emphasize negative character traits of one of the most popular characters in Star Wars. Solo was a white guy superman type of character, so I wondered if Disney’s direction was a political one. Later when I saw The Force Awakens, it clarified it emphatically. Disney had revised the Star Wars canon personally created by George Lucas to make the stories more progressive politically. They were essentially destroying a major character for the sake of editing the impact the character had on established mythology. This was equivalent to the way that progressives have attacked Thomas Jefferson as a real historic figure with the Sally Hemings allegations, or to attack Jesus and his relationship with Mary Magdalene, the prostitute in the Bible who traveled with Jesus and was there at his execution. We have witnessed revised history taking place in our public schools and colleges for the purpose of erasing history and now it was happening in Star Wars—an entertainment property that was just supposed to be for fun. Yet Disney was purposely destroying the character of Han Solo because of the impact he had on so many fans as being a very strong, and reliable character. My suspicions were confirmed at the beginning of September when a gay character was included in the new Star Wars novel Aftermath, which I reported a warning to Disney upon release. CLICK HERE TO REVIEW.
I’m not against black characters in Star Wars, or even alternative sexual types. However, Star Wars has always been an updated western, a space opera intended to communicate mythic stories that propelled our society with foundation philosophies. Until Star Wars comic #6, then the novel Aftermath followed by the confirmation of all my concerns with the movie The Force Awakens, I felt I could trust Lucasfilm with a story canon that was personally managed by George Lucas. I could read a story in a book or comic and believe that it had meaning to the overall collection of stories that had been canon until the Disney acquisition of Lucasfilm from George Lucas. Now in a very short time, Disney didn’t even try to cover their intentions with subtlety. They disrespected the long-time fans so much that they counted on sheer numbers to justify their collective activism of taking a deeply traditional story like Star Wars and turning it into a progressive mess. Disney was showing itself to be much more interested in selling the politics of the Obama White House than in just telling a story set in a galaxy far far away. Disney was promoting gay sex and interracial marriages over protecting the value of what made Star Wars successful to begin with. So for me, the only Star Wars canon is the one that took place before Disney took over. The last official book in the Star Wars canon under the guidance of George Lucas was the very good book The Crucible. It takes place 45 years after the Battle of Yavin in the film A New Hope. After watching A Force Awakens, which takes place around 15 years earlier I had thought that there was some time travel going on that gave the Star Wars story group an out if things went wrong with their progressive activism, but I’m now convinced that it’s too late. Disney executives have made progressive concepts their priority which has ruined Star Wars forever, they can’t go back now—they are too committed. Here is how The Crucible went and is officially the way that Han Solo and the other characters of the George Lucas canon rode off into the sunset of storytelling.
http://www.starwarstimeline.net/
When Han and Leia Solo arrive at Lando Calrissian’s Outer Rim mining operation to help him thwart a hostile takeover, their aim is just to even up the odds and lay down the law. Then monstrous aliens arrive with a message, and mere threats escalate into violent sabotage with mass fatalities. When the dust settles, what began as corporate warfare becomes a battle with much higher stakes–and far deadlier consequences.
Now Han, Leia, and Luke team up once again in a quest to defeat a dangerous adversary bent on galaxy-wide domination. Only this time, the Empire is not the enemy. It is a pair of ruthless geniuses with a lethal ally and a lifelong vendetta against Han Solo. And when the murderous duo gets the drop on Han, he finds himself outgunned in the fight of his life. To save him, and the galaxy, Luke and Leia must brave a gauntlet of treachery, terrorism, and the untold power of an enigmatic artifact capable of bending space, time, and even the Force itself into an apocalyptic nightmare.
I have praised George Lucas often because I think he’s a great filmmaker. He is too liberal for me, but I respect him greatly. He does have a black wife, which I don’t think is a big deal and he supports Obama. I gave high praise for his film Red Tails because it was an important story that needed to be told. When he sold Star Wars to Disney he did it because he was 70 and wanted to retire—but he had a massive company with over 2000 employees. It would have been better for Star Wars if Lucas would have just maintained control of his property, but then he couldn’t just let his employees rot—at least in his mind. So he sold Star Wars to a corporation he thought might preserve it, and washed his hands of the responsibility of being a major employer. I can understand all that. I thought it was a good move so long as Disney respected what George Lucas had built.
There is a lot more of George Lucas in Han Solo than in any other character I think. I’m sure George would say that he’s Artoo Detoo, or Yoda and that Star Wars is all about Luke Skywalker. But Han Solo is the old drag racer that Lucas used to be—and in many ways still is. I have read hundreds of Star Wars novels, most of them have Han Solo in the stories so I know the character very well—and he’s what George Lucas wanted to be. And let me say, Han Solo would have never had a wife during A New Hope. He had a long time girlfriend who was a drug addict prior to meeting Princess Leia, but he was not a sleep around. He wanted to be as far away from attachments as possible to protect himself from the obligation of maintaining those relationships and violating his opportunities for freedom. He wanted nothing more to limit his loyalties to his Wookie friend Chewbacca and to travel the galaxy in his hot rod Millennium Falcon. Much of his gruffness toward others was an act, just as he deliberately kept the Millennium Falcon looking like a wreck to disguise the power within it—the ship was the embodiment of Han Solo himself. Solo would have never had a wife, and once he did, he would have never left her. Han Solo is not the kind of character who gets drunk on Nar Shaddaa and wakes up with a wife. Han Solo was the embodiment of all the cowboys that George Lucas grew up loving as a kid, and he created a character that modern kids could look up to. That’s why he was always my favorite character, so it was very easy for me to see the revisionist history that Disney was attempting to perform without getting caught. Only, they got caught. I know too much about all this stuff not to see it. I know Star Wars not just from the surface but the structure of it—where it all started from the perspective of the Joseph Campbell Foundation. I was a member way back when George Lucas was on the Board with Campbell’s wife Jean running things. I’m not just a fan boy who didn’t want to see Han Solo killed in The Force Awakens. I’ve studied history and I know the impact of mythology, and why politics seeks to capture stories to control mass populations. That’s what Disney is doing with Han Solo, destroying him so that they can rebuild him in a progressive way to satisfy their political activism.
Star Wars fans really want to like The Force Awakens. I’m one of them. My opinions as of now are in the extreme minority. Just like a religion, when people find out something is wrong with a mythic device that contains all their foundation thoughts, people tend to get defensive—and some of that could be heard on the broadcast I did with Matt Clark on WAAM radio. But being in the minority does not make me wrong. A million fools cannot erase a truth and what Disney is doing will bite them in the ass—because they are changing essential portions of the Star Wars mythology to satisfy current political concerns. But those concerns will change over the next 60 years and these gay subplots will seem silly to future readers—especially when they seek out the original stories under George Lucas and compare the activism that occurred under Disney. Disney could have made a lot of money and done something really good by just leaving Star Wars alone and letting the profits from the endeavor follow. But they chose to be activists politically—for progressive reasons. Executives at Lucasfilm and Disney looked at Han Solo and noticed that he was a strong, traditional white male, and they wanted to dirty him up. So they gave him a wife that he was cheating on, and she was a woman of color to make her more of a victim. Then they had Han leave Leia in A Force Awakens to return to smuggling as if that was all Han Solo was ever good for without his marriage to a woman of stature and prestige. They purposely muddied up the character to make a point and create more social diversity because that is their value system. And that is why the Star Wars stories for me ended with The Crucible, a New York Times bestseller that has as much value to me as the novel Lord of the Rings, or The Bridges of Madison County. Disney by corporate design to elevate minorities, gays, and women in their stories to appear more diverse, politically, took the strongest character in the Star Wars mythology and erased his essence with a revised canon that makes him into a scumbag more relatable to modern audiences. We are living in an age where a lot of children cannot relate to a Han Solo type, a man who stays with his wife and is loyal to a fault. So Disney tried to weaken the character to appeal to younger audiences—but all they did was cause trouble for themselves. I’m not the only fan who will reject their product. Many others over the years to come will follow and Disney will only have themselves to blame.
For me this whole exercise has provided proof of something I’ve long suspected, that mythologies over time are radically redesigned by politics in all cultures to justify the failures of social mismanagement. The Bible has certainly been altered over the years to reflect the values of the Roman Empire, and the churches of Europe who wanted to use religion as a natural extension of that imperial control. Modern progressives are trying constantly to re-write history from the vantage point of the conquered Indian to erase the merits of cowboy capitalism in the West. And China prohibits proper archaeological study of their many pyramid-shaped mounds to suppress the real history of their ancient culture. Those are just a few examples. And right in front of our faces we have watched Disney revise something in our lifetimes in spite of the many witnesses. I read just the other day a defense of the movie A Force Awakens straying from the original plots created in the Expanded Universe by declaring that Solo had a wife in the EU. No, Solo did not have a wife under the EU. That plot device was created six months before the release of the 2015 Disney film to justify why Solo left Princess Leia after Return of the Jedi to become a typical white, American male—a Homer Simpson loser who can’t keep his pants on, and is unreliable to family life. In Disney’s desire to make Star Wars more accessible to women, and minorities, they have deliberately tampered with what made Han Solo one of the most popular characters in the saga—and they did it out of political activism, not intellectual necessity.

Hillary Clinton for Prison in 2016: Life can be a bitch, so don’t vote for one
Hey, this very nice young lady understands, Linda Lleshaj has found herself in the middle of some vigorous media attention after she was photographed at a Trump rally wearing one of the Alex Jones t-shirts promoting Hillary Clinton for Prison in 2016. As 2015 closes and 2016 opens a new fashion trend is emerging against Hillary Clinton as millions of Americans have watched her on live television snake her way out of the email scandals, and a movie about government incompetency that she is responsible for is at the movie theaters still trying to deal with the Benghazi killings of innocent Americans in Libya. We’ve watched the debt clock continue to tick upward, then we’ve watched the FBI and the White House fight over the definition of terrorism in San Bernardino as two ISIS sympathizers murdered innocent people just as Obama was trying to cover the tracks of his folly in Syria by letting refuges implant themselves in America to avoid violence there that he caused-making lives for all of us far more dangerous. Obama was far more concerned about gun control than the possibility of more ISIS terrorists coming to America on converted UPS shipping planes under his authorization—and we are all just supposed to go back to sleep? Some are asleep, but many more aren’t and that number is growing every day. Some, like this very fine young lady know that we are at war and she’s doing something about it—and that’s good to see. You can get a shirt like the one she’s wearing at the following links and join the fun.

A radio guy got into a bit of a Twitter scuffle with me on Christmas Eve of 2015. When he wanted out of the clash he said to me, “It’s Christmas Eve! Go hug somebody who loves you.” My reply was, that I had those bases covered and to remind him that he was the one who brought up the following subject, which apparently angered him:

Upon reading that I thought of George Washington crossing the Delaware on Christmas Eve to gain a surprise attack against British forces for a victory that was badly needed for the revolution. You don’t win wars sitting around eating turkey and ham and praying at church—you take the fight to the enemy and you stay sharp at all hours of the day and night. For perhaps the 80th time in the short week leading up to Christmas Day I actually had to remind people that we were at war in America. That war is raging and that it was because our incompetent government has refused to acknowledge it that few know that we are in it. I have been saying things like that for longer than Trump has been running for President, as proof of these articles will testify to. I’ve been saying the same things that he’s saying now while he was still giving money to Democrats to help with zoning issues in New York and was focused on his hit show The Apprentice. But, because of what he brings to the fight, I welcome him with open arms—because he’s a tremendous asset to the cause of winning this “civil” war.
A few years ago the kind of people I explained this war to would have thought that I was a tin-hatted conspiracy theorist looking for a fight that wasn’t there. But this year at the Christmas parties and dinners celebrating the close of the fourth quarter of our economy rational people are now listening and I explained to them that they better be ready. The only way that there can be a peaceful conclusion to this war is that Trump gets elected president and takes this fight to the legislative process from the people’s house in the Executive Branch. Otherwise, the streets in America will become active as a civil war of chaos and anxiety. It’s not an organized fight the way the Civil War was in the 1860s over a few definitive issues. This civil war is over fundamental ideologies, the sovereignty of the United States as a nation, and the types of people who have tried to internally weaken it to allow the global community to merge with it.
On Christmas Eve my mail lady, who is a government employee, but is individually a very nice person gave me very strange looks as she brought several packages to my garage. It was a beautiful day so I had the door open to enjoy the weather. She was a little shocked to find me at my work bench wearing one of my guns holstered from my practice and working on several others. I had some time to clean and oil them, so I took advantage of the opportunity. She normally drops packages on the front porch and we never talk, but it was Christmas Eve, and she felt a need to make direct contact because my garage was closer than my porch for her. I thanked her, even though I could tell that she was anxious about the guns—which she shouldn’t have been. The packages were not Christmas presents, but were orders from Brownells for the maintenance of my guns. Specifically, I’m performing a trigger job on my Ruger Vaquero and the new springs were among the parts that were in the boxes she brought to me. I have been dusting off my old gunsmithing skills lately. I’m not doing it for money as of now because I don’t want to go through the trouble of obtaining a FFL, as I’ve had before. When you get one of those you have to get fingerprinted and an ATF agent suddenly has access to your premises to check your records. That’s one of the reasons I gave it up years ago. As she walked back to her delivery van I could see by the way she walked that she was still uneasy about me. If this were communist China—as the Obama administration clearly shows an inclination—she would report me to the enforcement police for reconditioning, one government employee reporting the activities of civilian activity to other government employees. They are nice people when you get to know them, but in their role as employees to the kind of system that is allowing Hillary Clinton to flourish as a Democratic candidate, they are the type of people who could be dire enemies tomorrow. I imagine there were some colorful conversations about me when she arrived back at the Post Office.
A few weeks ago I had an arrival from UPS that required hazmat approval, as the material was explosive in nature. The delivery guy expressed concern about the contents. As a fairly young man he had been trained through social conditioning that deliveries like that were “suspicious.” The government considers people like me more dangerous than their Syrian Trojan horses. I told the kid not to worry about it—“It’s not for a bomb,” I told him answering the question that I knew he wanted to ask. “It’s primers for my reloads, nothing bad.” But to young people trained to be nice government employees from their liberalized public schools and social conditioning, guns are bad—in anybody’s hands. So I added, “don’t worry, my mouth is far more dangerous than anything I have around here.” And that’s the truth.
I am aware that everything I do is being watched by the NSA, the FBI, and the CIA. So they know I’m no danger to the United States—because I am the embodiment of what an American truly is, or should be. But I’m not taking any crap from anybody, because I don’t have to. I know what it feels like to be watched, followed, and even have contracts against you, and it’s not a big deal to me. I’ve dealt with all that before, and apparently Trump has as well. What I like about him is that he’s not afraid of anything—which makes him my kind of person-regardless of politics. I like and respect fearless people. My mouth is the thing they fear the most—and when you understand that, you don’t have to use a gun for offense. The guns are for defense—in case some idiot wants to cross that line. Otherwise, my mouth does more work than an army of gun wielding patriots would—and I’m fine to keep it that way. But if someone loses their mind and wants to impose themselves on me or my rights as a free-born human being—they will have big trouble.
But as for offense, my mouth works just fine, because it is that kind of war. And in this kind of war, Donald Trump is as good as boots on the ground. He fights the kind of war the government is imposing well which gives a platform for young people like Linda Lleshaj to function within. That poor radio guy who wants a certain kind of Republican candidate is falsely assuming that we are not a nation at war, and that the 2016 election is just another cycle of idiots and fools who make promises that they never keep once they get into office. We don’t have time for another Paul Ryan type in an important government office. We have to literally capture the flag, because domestic enemies currently posses it under rules of war and only then can we talk about some sanity in politics. Because I’m not changing my life for anybody-I don’t have to. I play by the rules, I pay my taxes, and I work hard every single day. I take care of my family without government help and I give a lot more to the world around me than I take. I am not the problem and I see clearly the mismanagement of the people who have been responsible, so I wear my guns around the house just in case some desperate fool decides to short-cut sanity and take something that belongs to me. Otherwise, I will be happy to fight the war on the terms of modern battle, and that is mostly with my mouth and through potential elected candidates like Trump.
The essence, and cause of that war is Hillary Clinton and her support organizations—the people who keep her as a viable candidate in spite of severe criminal misconduct. I lived through the Clinton White House during the 90s and I’m not about to put up with that garbage again. She belongs in jail, not in the White House, and it’s about time that more people start realizing it. To her credit, Linda Lleshaj is part of a new generation who has to grapple with that reality. And it is great to see that she is awake and is actively trying to get other young people to wake up as well. Welcome to the battlefield Linda. It’s a Christmas present to me to know you’re out there. That is my idea of a good Christmas. So let’s all cross the metaphorical Delaware together and surprise everyone.
Don’t believe we are at war, watch all the videos above, completely. The evidence is quite clear.
