    In support of the blue

    Police reform where needed, indeed! However, the great majority of Americans do not want to defund / abolish the police. There are bad apples in every walk of life - Washington and Albany politicos are excellent examples.

    More videos like the following are needed to illustrate what the near 700,000 police officers have to go through every day now and why there are so many retirements and resignations taking place.

    It seems to me that the employment future of this disgusting actor should be a no-brainer for the local school board and the district administrators.

    But, as always, I am sure that the fly in the ointment will be the teacher's union.

    Inflation under control?

    Confusion indeed. Can’t help but experiencing double-digit increases in fuel, food, construction materials and other essentials to not being concerned about the increase in the cost of living.

    A week ago Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen declared no need to be concerned about Biden’s exorbitant spending plans causing inflation. Today, it’s if it happens, we can cool down the economy by increasing interest rates. One way or the other, we are still screwed.

    Yellen’s comments on inflation spark confusion, clarification as White House tries to navigate economic pressures.

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/polit...?ocid=msedgntp

    Yellen was adamant that she was not concerned about inflation and stressed that she was not predicting or recommending an imminent increase in rates.

    I don’t think there’s going to be an inflationary problem, but if there is, the Fed can be counted on to address them,” Yellen said.

    Had enough of the vaccine BS? Yeah, me too!

    Like many seniors and individuals with a compromised immune system, I started wearing a mask in March 2020, practiced all the sanitizing, social distancing, etc. guidelines, and felt some relief after getting the second Covid vaccination.

    Got the first shot before Biden took office and when he and Harris were raising concerns about ant vaccination developed under Trump. Now the two have been vaccinated, are promoting getting the shots, and telling the public it is safe to go unmasked outdoors and in certain settings. Yet, despite being vaccinated the two are always wearing masks - outdoors, at events where everyone has been vaccinated, and Harris was photographed today kissing her husband while both were masked.

    Reports declare the individuals who received both vaccinations have contacted Covid and have died. Dr. Fauci is cautioning individuals having received both shots to remain as cautious as ever.

    Tonight Tucker Carlson reported on a medical report that estimated the number of Covid deaths of vaccinated individuals since late December. The Daily Beast reports:

    Tucker Carlson Makes BS Claim ‘30 People Every Day’ Are Dying From Vaccines. Here’s the Truth.

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/med...?ocid=msedgntp

    The Daily Beast report fails to tell us what the truth is. The pandemic has been weaponized by government / media / medical operatives to scare us – vaccinated or not!

    Had my two vaccinations, I will be responsibly calling the shots from now on now. Take off that mask when outside, Mr. Biden. Or, in a room where everyone present have been vaccinated. You are sending the wrong message to the country regarding vaccine safety and efficacy.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Arizona is but a snapshot of what’s taking place throughout our country. Unfortunately, I live in a state that is literally and economically dying! A state run by an inept, narcissistic, bully Governor, an inept / dysfunctional Legislature, and (shudder) the likes of Schumer and AOC.

    The mainstream media will not cover anything that will put the Biden administration in a bad light (especially the border crisis) and too willing to blame Trump for every Biden bad outcome decision. Trump is gone. Biden has all but wiped out his legacy. The country’s fate is in Biden’s hands. Come on man, own up!

    The ’conservative’ media too often reacts in like bizarre, parochial fashion. The political class and the media make it near impossible to determine fact from fiction, reality from fake / BS news.

    fyi...

    socialist revolution is underway in america: Trevor loudon


    by*ella kietlinska*and*joshua philipp*may 6, 2021*updated: May 6, 2021biggersmaller*print


    america is now in the midst of a communist revolution that is trying to centralize power through bringing every element of the u.s. Government, from the lowest levels to the top, under the control of the executive branch, said author and filmmaker trevor loudon.


    “therefore, the independence of the legislature, the independence of the supreme court, the independence of the sheriffs and the police must all be destroyed, and the loyalty of the army to the constitution must be transferred to loyalty to the president,” loudon said in an interview with*the epoch times’*crossroads program.“and this is guided by socialists. I believe it’s guided by the communist party of china,” loudon said. The revolution uses race “rather than class to overturn the existing structures of society and start something new.”


    marx’s*theory of exploitation*divides people into two opposing classes, the bourgeoisie with capital that oppresses the proletariat and the working class.

    Because there is mobility between classes, as workers can buy equity in a company or start their own businesses, this theory has not gained much support in america, but race can be used to divide american society because it cannot be changed, loudon said.

    The occupy wallstreet movement of 2011 evolved on the basis of class oppression with a goal to fight back against the wealthiest 1 percent of people on behalf of the remaining 99 percent of the population. Although the movement gained some momentum, it eventually failed, loudon continued.

    However, “you have multi-million millionaire black football players complaining about white oppression,” he said.

    President joe biden “is using race as a way of breaking down the existing power structures in the military, and in society in general,” loudon said.

    Defense secretary*lloyd austin*ordered*in february a one-day “stand down” in the military to assess extremism and racism within the ranks of the armed forces and directed military commanders to spend time talking to their troops about extremism.

    According to a pentagon report (pdf) published in march, domestic extremists pose a serious threat to the u.s. Military by seeking to add service members to their ranks and joining the armed forces to boost their combat skills.

    “in addition to potential violence, white supremacy and white nationalism pose a threat to the good order and discipline within the military,” the report states.


    The goal of these policies is to create a military that is loyal to the new regime and to the new socialist america, loudon explained.

    The majority of the lower ranks of the american military “is primarily recruited from the white community and largely southern. They tend to be pretty christian, they tend to be pretty politically and socially conservative,” he continued.

    Therefore, the military needs to purge or minimize its lower base and bring in many more people of color, leftists, and people who will be loyal to the new regime, loudon said. The leadership of the u.s. Military had already been changed during the obama administration when loyal generals were replaced with political hacks, globalists, and leftists, he said.

    Calls from radical left-wing groups such as antifa and black lives matter to “defund the police” serve the same purpose, according to loudon.

    The intent behind the “defund police” movement is to eliminate patriotic, conservative elements in the police forces, which are largely run by patriotic people, and make the police loyal to a socialist government, making it more like the communist police in venezuela or cuba, which can be used to quell revolts, loudon said.

    A big stumbling block on the road to socialism is the conservative governors and the conservative sheriffs, loudon explained. The sheriff is one of the most important positions in america and county sheriffs who are loyal to the constitution can protect their counties from unconstitutional regulations imposed by the federal government, he continued.

    Although biden disagrees with calls to end the police,*he urged the senate*to pass a police reform bill that would ban controversial police tactics such as chokeholds and no-knock warrants and eliminate qualified immunity for law enforcement officers, making it easier for citizens to pursue claims of police misconduct.

    During his presidential campaign, biden promised to create a*national police oversight commission,*but recently he suspended this plan and instead has pushed for passing the police reform bill.

    Encouraging illegal immigration on the southern border is also a communist strategy aimed at creating “a massive voting bloc” for the democrat party aimed at transforming america into a one-party state, loudon said. “the whole plan is to swamp the conservative voting base.”

    “most of the elections are won or lost by 5 million votes or less” loudon said, adding that 18 or 20 million new democrat voters can make conservative states such as texas or arizona “permanently blue.”

    estimates of the number of illegal immigrants residing in the united states vary depending on the methodology used. It has been usually estimated at approximately 11 million, but a*study conducted at yale*in 2018, with an intention to do a “sanity check” on the existing estimate, showed that the actual number of illegal immigrants may be more than 22 million.

    Massive infrastructure spending will sink the u.s. Dollar, causing an increase in interest rates and destroying u.s. Business, loudon said. “the new infrastructure will be there to absorb the workers who are displaced, so everybody will be put on a subsistence level wage, like a universal basic income … [it is] building an army of young people totally dependent on the state.”

    “it is a program that stalin would have been proud of. It will end the energy industry as we know it in this country, it will destroy the economy, destroy the u.s. Military budget,” loudon said.

    Biden*proposed a $2.3 trillion*infrastructure package, also known as*american jobs plan,*which aims at not only at fixing roads and bridges, but also facilitating the shift to cleaner energy and expanded social welfare.

    The infrastructure package, together with the $1.8 trillion family and education package and the $1.9 trillion covid-19 relief package, amount to a total of $6 trillion in*new spending*and exceeds about 4 times the total federal budget, according to*sen. Mitt romney*(r-utah).

    The goal of all these policies is a complete destruction of the american constitutional republic, loudon said, adding that the ultimate goal is world communism.

    Loudon predicts that the united states is heading toward a socialist model that will be a cross between the chinese system and brazil’s under former communist president luiz inacio lula da silva, known as lula.

    “brazil has a sort of racial makeup similar to the united states … lula played those ethnic minorities off against each other, and he elevated some at the expense of others to bring about his revolution. … but the ultimate model is the chinese model,” loudon said.the american elites and the american globalists like the chinese model because it brings an authoritarian state which can keep workers under control while still allowing room for rich people to make lots of money, loudon said. He thinks however that they eventually “will be lined up against the wall and shot like everyone else who bucks the system.”

    but loudon believes the american people can still stop the revolution and reverse socialist trends. He outlined his strategy to do this in an*article written*for the epoch times.

    According to loudon’s advice, states that have republican legislatures or good governors like ron desantis in florida and greg abbott in texas should form a coalition of states to counter unconstitutional actions of the federal government, but not secede, loudon said.

    Loudon also advocates boycotting unpatriotic companies and supporting patriotic companies, as well as boycotting “everything that comes from the chinese communist party of china, right now, every product, every investment.”

    the battle against socialism “has got to be fought politically, intellectually, and spiritually; we got to understand that we’re in a battle, here, between good and evil. You’ve got to choose which side you are on,” loudon concluded.

    Regarding post 7028

    Trevor Louden is a New Zealand native, author, filmmaker, conservative political activist who writes for Epoch, a right bias media outlet. A perspective with opinions and facts that would be ridiculed by the media left as fake news or psychobabble.

    However, presented as Democratic Socialism, Progressive Socialism, whatever, there are numerous indicators Marxist style communism is the goal of the radical left in the report.

    Disappointing for many of us is that Biden sold himself as a moderate, declaring ‘never a socialist’, yet his policies and unfettered spending programs lead one to think otherwise.

    He boasted today of the resurgence of an economy which is being fueled by his stimulus program. Boasted about the 266,000 jobs created in April where 1 million were predicted, and while failing to mention the economy is back because Covid shutdowns are ending. Failed to talk about his failure to get the schools open (kowtowing to Teacher unions), and looking feeble and sometimes incoherent in making his presentation.

    The man who created and denies the existence of the border crisis, declares the surge is under control, that systemic racism exists, condemns White Supremacy terrorism but remains silent on antifa and BLM anarchy, promises 16 million jobs would be created under his policies, flew 17,000 miles with Xi Jinping, now wants to put a lid on disinformation.

    Build Back Better for whom. Mr. Biden? The population who are profiting from your free stuff and don’t have to go back to work. Certainly not for the business owners who are still under duress because they can’t find employees. While promising us your policies will not lead to inflation concerns, it is already under way with significant increases in fuel, food, building materials, housing, etc.

    Despite the cancel culture movement and resulting shaming / intimidation tactics, people are speaking out and pushing back against the socialism movement.

    Divided we are and divided we will remain

    Regardless of party affiliation, the great majority of Americans want the same things – return to normalcy and the United States to indeed be united. That cannot happen unless the political party demonization ends, and the media ends its biased, self-serving, deplorable reporting.

    Trudy Rubin, columnist and editorial-board member for the The Philadelphia Inquirer column today focused on lies and misinformation reporting:

    That’s why I believe it’s necessary to start labeling false media propaganda as a direct threat to press freedom.

    As Hannah Arendt, the great expert on totalitarian rule, said in 1974: “What makes it possible for a dictatorship to rule is that people are not informed. If everybody always lies to you, the consequence is not that you believe the lies, but rather that nobody believes anything any longer. With such a people you can then do what you please.”

    Twitter was correct to ban the former president.

    Open debate should be welcomed by all sides (including Democratic progressives), but constant, overt lies undermine the republic. Those talking heads from Congress who promote the Big Election Lie should be reprimanded on talk shows when they do so. To let those lies spread not only undermines press freedom but also promotes civil war.


    Rubin’s column focused solely on examples of lies coming from Republican Congress members and the right wind media. One must ask whose job it is to report information and whose responsibility it is to process the information and judge the information presented to determine its credibility and truthfulness.

    Individuals processing biased media information today and daring to express their opinions openly are mocked, shamed, intimidated, cancelled, or even losing jobs. Politicians and lawyers are best known for ‘manipulating’ the truth and are least trustworthy. That is why so many lawyers can be found in the political world, and in today’s media profession as well.

    We the people are the judge and jury of the information provided us. It has become extremely difficult to separate the truth from the BS. Near impossible in determining the lesser of two evils when voting.

    In another BS Buffalo News report today, we are being informed by a Democratic political consultant that in Biden’s first 100 days in office, where he promised a bipartisan “return to normalcy” – mission accomplished.

    Return to bipartisan normalcy? An average of polls taken in mid-April show that voters approve of Biden’s performance by a roughly 5-4 margin. That is roughly equal to the percentage who voted for him in 2020. Border crisis, binge spending, defunding the police, significant increase in violent crime, Hunter Biden scandals unreported by mainstream media, etc., is considered back to normalcy – Building Back Better.

    As both sides continue to demonize each other, the biased media massage / unscrupulously manipulate the news, we remain screwed, divided, and in jeopardy of having our free speech suppressed.

    Shootings up 83% in New Yok, de Blasio has a plan

    While nationally over 400 individuals were shot or killed over the Mother’s Day weekend, New York’s crime rate for 2021 is up over 80% from last year.

    Defunding the police by $1 million, Mayor de Blasio has put together a plan where any city worker transportation user can sign up to get a buddy to travel the system with them for safety assurance. Yeah, that ought to do it! What a genius.

    Add the recent catch and release no bail policies enacted by Albany, there is little consequence for gun crime. 88% of individuals arrested for gun crimes were back on the street without any bail. 55% arrested for pulling a trigger were back on the street with the no bail policy enacted by Albany.

    The suspected gunman who allegedly wounded three people in Times Square — including a 4-year-old girl — is a career criminal with a lengthy rap sheet. In total, Farrakhan Muhammad was arrested at least nine times.

    The spate of shootings and killings are not being attributed to ‘gun laws’ as usual, rather to the pandemic, financial security, mental health and police morale issues.

    Police morale issues? How is that possible? Being cussed at, spit upon, hit by flying objects, resisters threatening their lives, that’s part of any job, right? We all leave home every day with the expectation that we could lose our lives on the job, right?

    Look up moron in the dictionary and you will find pictures of Cuomo and de Blasio!

    The 'defund the police' movement falls flat on its face in New York City

    The defund the police movement was so dumb that it was only a matter of time the movement would come to a crashing halt. Now if only the numb-nuts Mayor can boost the police morale to where they feel the Mayor has their backs.

    Is the country headed in the right direction?

    Yes, says the mainstream media. Trump, the liar-in-chief is gone, and his legacy has been torn apart. He appears daily in the media and blamed for everything, even for crisis’ created by Biden policies – border, foreign affairs, inflation, etc.

    The liberal mainstream media in their polling finds the majority of Americans believe the country is headed in the right direction.

    Today’s Washington Examiner (a right wing media outlet) presents a different perspective:

    Radical, incompetent Biden administration risks collective catastrophe

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opini...?ocid=msedgdhp

    Joe Biden probably doesn’t want to “destroy America in order to save it.” If he did want to do that, though, and if he knew what he were doing, he would be doing exactly what he’s doing now.

    Already, Biden is creating a legacy of labor shortages, a border crisis, dangerous debt, massive inflationary pressures, leftist cultural warfare, racial divisiveness, rising crime, and feckless foreign policy. And while the past week’s gasoline shortages due to a ransomware attack aren’t his fault (except at the margins), his ongoing failure to hold Russia’s Vladimir Putin accountable could serve as encouragement for similar future attacks.


    Had enough of the divisive BS from the political and media world? Given up on trying to determine who / what is the lesser of two evils? Scared of what the future holds? Yeah, me too.

    9-11 seemed so long ago. A time when unity, commonsense, free speech, and law and order still prevailed.
