What Happens If 2024 is Rigged Too?

photog Current Events , ,

Suppose 2024 is a carbon copy of 2020.  At 11:30 pm, with Donald Trump ahead by comfortable margins, the counting stops in Pennsylvania, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan and Georgia and after several days of slow-motion vote counting, Biden wins these states and the presidency.

This is the Dissident Right’s checkmate scenario; a permanent Democrat lock on the federal government.  No matter how lousy the Left’s handling of the economy and the border and foreign affairs Republicans will be shut out of the White House and Congress and eventually through attrition the Supreme Court too.  Checkmate.

The question to answer is what, if anything, will the Right do about it?

And here is another case of no one knows for sure.  Could it all just go forward, not with a bang but a whimper?  Certainly, it could.  Maybe even, it’s likely it would.  And that would seal the fate of the “constitutional republic” for at least a generation and maybe for good.  So that’s the worst case.  What else is there?

I think the best-case scenario is a Conservative Convention.  I don’t mean a Republican convention.  In fact, I would hope the attendees would studiously ignore their party affiliation and concentrate on their status as normal Americans.  I think every state should select delegates and these men should open up negotiations on forming a Red State Council.  This would be an organization to allow the Red States to coordinate, integrate and amplify the efforts of these states to neutralize the deleterious effects of the federal government and at the same time build alternative institutions both private and public to advance the interests and nurture the citizens they represent.

For the normal Americans trapped in the Blue States this Council would provide an indirect leadership.  Commercial support by these Blue State inhabitants for any businesses fostered by the Council would be mutually beneficial for both consumers and corporations.  And these refugees can benefit from such resources as conservative colleges where their children can get a sane education.

None of these things will happen easily or quickly, which is an even more important reason that they need to begin immediately after the futility of federal elections has been proven once and for all.  It will only be by beginning the process of forging a separate identity that any sense of hope will appear.  This identity should be based on a refusal to surrender our rights to freedom of speech, the right to bear arms, freedom of association, freedom of religion and the rest of the Bill of Rights.  By choosing these rights as the basis for our identity we demonstrate that we are the direct successors of the American republic and therefore the legitimate heirs to its heritage.  This will provide us with the basis for our efforts to form new institutions.

For instance, we should sponsor the creation of communication and media companies that will respect freedom of speech and the fourth amendment’s protection against unreasonable search and seizure:

“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”

We can’t have phone companies and e-mail services allowing the government to spy on Americans anymore.  The only way this can be enforced is if the Red States enforce these restrictions themselves.

And the Red States will have to police illegal immigration themselves.  Expelling the immigrants either back to their countries of origin or else to “sanctuary” blue states could be part of this policy.

And there are a thousand things from affirmative action to sexual deviancy that needs to be addressed by a conservative coalition.  But the only way anything will be achieved is by making a start.  Until we hear that such a gathering has been arranged, we live without hope of regaining our rights and freedoms.  And the day that should begin is the day after the 2024 election is stolen.

The Scatter-Shot States of America

photog Current Events

The Mayflower landed at Plymouth Rock four hundred and three years ago we are told.  And those Puritans risked all to escape from the England of religious persecution.  Now it may be that the persecution was based on the annoyingness of the Puritans.  We won’t debate that.  Suffice it to say they wanted a place of their own where they were free; free to persecute unto death, whomever they chose, in peace.

And they succeeded fabulously.  From humble beginnings they spread across the continent and now in every jurisdiction where they were overrepresented; New England, the Middle Atlantic States, the Great Lakes Region and the Pacific Coast they torture anyone who disagrees with their whims.  And they have even set up a coalition that allows them to torture the other areas of the United States by means of federal legislation and executive branch administrative rulings.  They are indeed very organized and very effective at making other people miserable.  It is their whole reason for existence.

And yet, even now as rioting and thuggery turn the streets of once great metropolises into anarchic hellscapes, the greater part of the geographic area of the United States is still a wonderland of modern life.  For the most part we have the advantages of the electric age where appliances and machines provide us with multiples of a horsepower at our fingertips to do everything from transport us to a job located a week’s walk from our home to cutting up a fallen tree in a tiny fraction of the time it would take us with a hand saw.  We heat our homes and cool them using chemical energy derived from carbon-based fuels and we eat food that is kept sanitary by refrigeration.

Now undoubtedly things have begun to degrade.  The electric grid crashes enormously more often than it did even twenty years ago.  The powers that be want a lot of this cheap and convenient power to go away.  But even now with infrastructure degrading around us, our lives are immeasurably easier than our ancestors living a hundred and fifty years ago.  As galling as are all of the lies we are told about why our standard of living has to be lowered, it’s probably true that even after they take away fossil fuels from most of us, the United States will still be more pleasant a home than the majority of the rest of the planet.

One can only imagine what it would be like, living in the Congo or Egypt or Pakistan.  Even Mexico or Brazil would be many times less safe or comfortable.  So maybe leaving here would not make sense.  Maybe we cannot be modern day pilgrims leaving the place of bondage for a land of opportunity.  Unless we can find that promised land right here in the United States.

As much as the busybody Puritans use every power at their disposal to rule over us, maybe we can undermine their control locally and even regionally.  And with the modern abilities to network and organize people across great distances maybe we can produce coalitions of our own and pool resource and regain a large part of the control over our lives that the Puritans have taken away.

For instance, Joe Biden attempted to instate regulations to force cleaning equipment (dishwashers and clothes washers) to work with extremely low amounts of water.  This is supposedly environmentally friendly but what it does is ensure that these devices will work poorly.  And I assume that companies that do not adhere to these standards will be fined or their leadership will be liable to arrest by the environmental police of one stripe or another.  The solution to this is to have the red states provide safe havens for manufacturers who produce non-conforming equipment.  And thus, this equipment could be manufactured and sold within these states.  And similarly for other companies and products that the federal government is attacking.  A major case will be gasoline powered cars.  California has legislated a ban on new gas-cars after 2030, I think.  If Joe Biden is re-elected something similar will be attempted nationally.  That would be a perfect time for a coalition of red states to champion fossil fuel devices of all kinds and draw a distinction between free states and slave states.  Le the free states enjoy all the benefits of cheap power while the slave states try to cut their lawns with battery powered mowers and travel around in their battery powered clown cars.  That is until they stall out.

So maybe we can all become pilgrims within our Scatter-Shot States of America and attempt to wring a free and prosperous life despite the worst efforts of the Puritans to make us as miserable as themselves.  It may be our last best hope at happiness.

Waking Up to Brutal Reality

photog Current Events , , ,

I was having a discussion with a good friend who currently is about where I was in 2016.  He’s seen how fake the GOP establishment is but he thinks things are so bad, based on the polls, that Trump has to win.  He talked about the drift of black and Hispanic and youth voters either slightly or precipitously away from Joe Biden this year and he feels that this has guaranteed the election for Trump.

So, I asked him what happens if two weeks after election day Joe Biden wins in the usual places; Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona and Georgia?  “Well, then it’s over.  We might as well look for a new country,” he said.  Based on my conversations with this friend over the course of over twenty years this is a seismic change.

2020 was a wakeup call for the normie-cons.  And no one can claim that in the world that we inhabited in 2000 or even 2008 that an economy and a social environment such as we have now would possibly have allowed for the incumbent that caused these conditions to get reelected.  It just wouldn’t have happened.  Everyone knows that election results no longer track with public opinion polls or even reality.  I’m convinced that if Joe Biden “wins” the 2024 Presidential Election the last remaining holdouts on the Right will be fully awakened to truth about American elections; that they’re fake.

Now this is a limited observation and conclusion.  I don’t claim that this realization will have any effect or result on our situation.  The only thing that will happen will be a collapse in trust in the federal and blue state governments and a search for some other power center that can be invested with whatever monetary and social support these people can provide.

People like DeSantis and Abbott will be looked to for protection against Biden and the unconstitutional power grabs that he and his cronies will enact.  It might even come down to a showdown over something like illegal border crossings in Texas.  But at the very least most people will finally agree with the statement that “we can’t vote our way out of this situation.”

And that’s huge.  This collapse in trust by the least political portion of the population is the death knell for the establishment Republicans.  Creeps like Mitch McConnell and Nikki Haley will be recognized for what they are; patsies for the Left.  Brave men who are willing to strike out in a new direction, to take matters into their own hands and force the federal government to accept the rights of Red State Americans to the constitutional freedoms that we were promised generations ago will be the true leaders and they will find enormous support from the people who are impatiently waiting for some kind of resistance to the unrelenting attack against us by the Left and their minions in Washington.

I look forward to the day when a whole generation of men who recognize what Trump did and use his example to replace the RINOs in state and federal offices and begin the process of defining and acting upon a concerted program to push back the outrages that have been perpetrated against the good people of this country for generations.

But all this supposes that such men exist.  What if they don’t?  Well then, if after the upcoming 2024 debacle no one steps forward to lead the remaining people of this country who want to be free, then I agree with my friend.  We’ll need to find a new country.

Real Change

photog Current Events ,

Looking at the people who run this country is a frightening thing.  Washington DC is a train wreck.  The White House and the Capitol are almost entirely composed of carny trash.  No one exemplifies this better than the Bidens.  Sure, there are a few senators and representatives who are trying to make things better but they’re outnumbered a hundred to one.  The federal agencies, especially the intelligence agencies are populated with leftist true-believer bureaucrats who should be under sedation in mental institutions for the good of everyone.  And then there is the government industrial complex with its throng of corporate vampires feeding off the lifeblood that the IRS diverts to them.  The size of the operation is staggering, and apparently, irresistible.

So, when faced with an entrenched system as powerful and as malignant as ours and as inimical to our interests, you have to wonder what the chances are that it can be reformed.  And then when you look at who is supposedly going to do the reforming and how they are currently “planning” to take back the country, well, words fail me utterly.

To put it politely, they haven’t a clue.  And I’m talking about the ones who aren’t just kidding us like Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham.  All of these people; McCarthy, Cruz, Paul, Abbott, DeSantis and even Trump they don’t have the first idea what is needed to save this country.  If they did, they wouldn’t be messing around with the presidential election or any of the absurd federal policies that they involve themselves with.

They would spend all their time coordinating the red states into a practical federation with the intent of reinforcing their individual efforts to neutralize the harmful effects of the government in DC.  But instead, they waste time trying to compete with each other to see who can lose to Biden in 2024.  Absurd.

So, for me I see little reason to hope for any substantial progress for the foreseeable future.  And that brings me to the point of this exercise in typing.  Exactly what will it take to galvanize an effective response from the bulk of this country?  What catastrophe is necessary to force all of these sleepwalkers into doing something that will have practical results?

I’ve been trying to work this out in my head.  It seems to me it won’t be a simple financial crisis.  We’ve had those already and apparently people are too stupid to see that what’s going on is the slow-motion bankruptcy of the country.  I guess until they can’t afford the price of bread they’ll continue on as if all’s right with the world right up until the apocalypse.

What I think will trigger a revolt is violence.  People will put up with a lot of economic and financial trouble simply because they really don’t know how these problems are caused or how they’re solved.  But everybody understands how law and order works and they can see when it’s slipping away.  When you’ve lived your whole life in a safe place and then it becomes unsafe it’s a very big deal.  Your wife and kids can’t walk down the streets or go to school without worrying about being robbed or assaulted.  The value of your home decreases drastically and your peace of mind disappears.

I think that will be the trigger.  The state governments will have to clean up the city gangs that operate with impunity in the Democrat controlled cities.  And these cities will have to be controlled by the state to end all the problems that fester there.  Welfare, crime, illegal immigration, failed schools, drug addiction all will have to be brought under control by the red state governments in order to stem the tide of decay.

Of course, that’s assuming there are still Americans who still have the will to fix things.  Maybe the violence will just go unanswered and things will just get worse and worse.  I think we’ll know in just a very few years.  Because if things aren’t fixed soon the whole thing will come tumbling down.

Wake Up from the 2024 Dream

photog Current Events, Trump , ,

Donald Trump has proven that even on hostile turf, like a CNN “town hall” he can more than hold his own.  In fact, he made them look like the chumps they are.  The petulant moderator came off as a middle school hall monitor almost constantly hectoring the former president with subjective corrections to almost everything Trump asserted.  And the audience was in Trump’s pocket.  They cheered his punchlines and took his part in the argument.

So, candidate Trump has a solid base of Republican voters who want him to be the nominee.  And sure, why shouldn’t he be the candidate.  But I think a lot of folks no longer think we’re going to get anywhere by electing politicians to spend four years in Washington DC being undermined by the FBI, the Justice Department and the rest of the Deep State.

We’ve just seen this movie.  Even if by some miracle Donald Trump wins the 2024 election and ends up in the White House, what’s going to be different?  How does he make the FBI follow his orders?  How does he get the Defense Department to end their wars?  When he ordered the Pentagon to end the Afghanistan war, they ignored him.  Just flat out ignored him.

Going into that charade again without a plan for making the outcome different is a complete waste of time we don’t have.  Things are already at the breaking point in large sections of the population.  Dooming people to waiting four more years or even two years is a death sentence.

If Trump and DeSantis and the rest of the Republican leaders had half a brain they’d have already sat down together and begun putting together an agenda that concentrated on what could be done right now on the state and local level.  They should have a plan that included initiatives that could be implemented over the next year and a half and then two separate plans to be implemented after that.  One plan would be used if the Republicans took back the White House and the other one would be used if they didn’t.  It’s as simple as that.

What I’m saying is that conservative politics can no longer be pursued as if it’s a gentleman’s pastime that’s dusted off every four years and then put back on the shelf if the Democrats win.  If we don’t start pushing back right now and wherever it can be done it won’t matter whether we “win the next one.”  Because there won’t be anyone left who will care.  Another four years of new Americans will replace four years of Americans.  The tipping point has already been reached.

So, Trump, DeSantis and the rest of you “leaders,” wake up!  Sit down together and start planning for the big picture.  The clock is ticking and your window of opportunity is closing.  Fighting each other to be the losing candidate in 2024 is a singularly meaningless waste of time.  Sure, one of you can be the candidate.  But it should be a unity government that represents a consensus on what the platform must be.  And those idiots in the House and Senate must be dope slapped until they cooperate with the plans and preparations that the state leaders decide upon.

Anyway, that’s my read on all this.

Maybe the First Stirrings of a Red State Council?

photog Current Events , , ,

Just the first little inkling of what a real red state cooperation could look like.  Coordinating efforts to resist and fight back against the Leftist agenda, both in government and elsewhere.  It’s a start anyway.

 

What Would a Red State Council Look Like?

photog Current Events ,

There are twenty-two US states that have a Republican governor along with a legislature that has a Republican majority in both houses.

Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, West Virginia, Wyoming

Looking geographically, you can see how this grouping makes a lot of sense.  New Hampshire is of course hopeless and honestly, a New England Republican is just a cheap Democrat in my book.  Strategically trying to win over Kentucky and Kansas would do wonders for consolidating our proto-confederation geographically.

So that was kind of fun.  But what practical effects could be made of having these states align their laws and actions?  Well, if you think about it, plenty!  What if by July all these states passed laws outlawing everything transgender?  No more kids being mutilated or drugged.  No more weirdos going into the wrong bathrooms.  No more men playing in women’s sports.  No more Drag Queen Story Time. No more nothing.

But that’s just a thumb in the eye of Lefty.  Really it has more to do with forcing corporations to stop hiring illegal aliens and eliminating woke culture from the schools and colleges and forcing the blue cities to maintain law and order.  Maybe it means coordinating things like road building and infrastructure projects that the federal government has reneged on and providing alternatives to some of the federal agencies that are needed but which have become corrupt.

They could license doctors, lawyers and engineers to take the place of the AMA, ABA and other credentialing organizations that have gone woke.  Basically they would begin the process of bypassing a lot of the federal bureaucracy that has been weaponized against the Red States.

And one of the biggest priorities would be a coordination on energy projects and policies.  The first item in the legislative agenda would be the dumping of all green programs and the wholehearted embrace of intelligent energy utilization.  Licensing nuclear power plants and the development of new energy sources should be strongly encouraged.

And in terms of membership, if this cooperation got going, the benefits of this kind of arrangement might lure a few more states along just because of the economic benefits it would provide.  I could imagine Kansas, Kentucky and Louisiana coming aboard and possibly several others.

And all of this could be accomplished without any radical steps taken to distance the red and blue states.  By having the states negotiate the common legislative agenda it will be possible to optimize their ability to neutralize the federal agenda and prevent the feds from finding any weak links when they go after red state police forces and other vulnerable targets.

And most importantly, everything must be done in a way that points to the unconstitutionality of the federal laws and policies that this council is working to neutralize.  It must be clear that powers that the states are endowed with in the Constitution are the basis of the actions that these states are taking.  That in fact they are only protecting these rights against the predations of a runaway and unconstitutional federal bureaucracy that has as its object the destruction of states rights and the subjection of American citizens to an illegal alienation of their fundamental rights as Americans.

The fact that these states aren’t already thinking in these terms highlights the problem we are dealing with.  Americans have for generations believed that our government was by and large set up in a way that promoted the freedoms and prosperity that we have come to expect.  The truth is that those freedoms have been swept away by federal agencies that have aligned with the authoritarian left.  And by means of election fraud we can no longer expect the federal government to be accountable to the legitimate citizens of this country.  It’s time that those states that have managed to hold onto a semblance of sanity to combine their efforts and their resources to resist the destruction of the American way of life.

The clock is ticking.  Hang together or hang separately.

A Local Focal Friday

photog Current Events , , , , ,

I was listening to the Z-Man’s Friday podcast while exercising this morning.  Camera Girl informs me that he sounds exactly like our family doctor.  Since I only go for a check-up once a decade, I cannot verify that this is true but she is a very observant and intelligent (if annoying) woman.

Today his topic was about how the dysgenic aspects of our culture were leading to a low IQ population, sort of the Idiocracy theorem.  There was a good bit of discussion about how as society devolves local power centers like local politicians (or call them warlords) and institutions that have control over specific functions or technologies (e.g., Silicon Valley) would begin usurping the place of the federal government as it imploded due to rank incompetence.

It was a very interesting discussion and it pointed to a mechanism for transitioning from the current stalemated political situation to a future where local politics and power structures could evolve to benefit a local concentration of competent and cooperative people.  Of course, it still depends on the crumbling of our society as the moving force to allow this untethering and we’re certainly not there yet.  Even though the beginnings of collapse can be seen in the increase in the frequency of airplane crashes, train derailments (not to mention naval vessels colliding) and the breakdown in law and order in the cities, still, we’re probably decades away from the official fall of the empire.

As I’ve many times stated we won’t have hit bottom until the incidences of cannibalism become too prevalent to make the newspapers (or whatever they call the news purveyors at that point in time).  So, this scenario that the Z-Man is postulating is still in the somewhat distant future.  But it most definitely makes me think that the idea of a Red State pushing for more autonomy is the correct model for the Right to embrace.  And I think that the idea of a Council of Red States is more and more the most effective way for people on the right to affect change.

I was reading an article by Salena Zito about what Ron DeSantis is up to down in Florida.  She talks about the fact that both Biden and Trump are bashing DeSantis because he’s the likely contender that both of them would face.  But then she spends most of the article going over the things he’s doing in Florida.  And even though it’s apparent that she’s supportive of his run for president, what strikes me is that the things he’s doing for his state would be impossible for a president to do without both a veto-proof senate and the house  under his control.

So once again, it makes me think that local control of people’s lives becomes more useful than battling for control of the dysfunctional federal government.  If DeSantis is actually able to enact Florida Digital Bill of Rights

he will be so far ahead of the rest of the country that the rest of us who toil under the yoke of internet tyranny will curse the fate that left us outside his benevolent rule.  Let’s face it, Florida is marching forward, throwing off the culture war shackles of the Left while the rest of us are being dragged backward in our Antifa and BLM controlled hellholes.

I think DeSantis should consider carefully whether he will have more power and more influence as the leader of a group of Red State governors rather than as an embattled Republican president.  And that’s not taking anything away from him as a presidential candidate.  If somehow he ends up as the candidate, I’ll vote for him certainly.  But how he gets there without antagonizing the millions of Trump-only voters is not clear to me.  Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis should be sitting down and talking about this election.  Even if they hate each other, even if both of them want to win above all else, they should look at all the options and decide what they can do to maximize the good outcomes from their campaigns.  In fact, what they should do is agree that whichever wins the other will throw full support to him.  And also offer the vice-presidential spot to his opponent first.  That would be putting country in front of ego.  Although I don’t think DeSantis should leave Florida to be a vice president.  He is so much more effective now; it would be a waste.  And I doubt Trump would accept the largely ceremonial duties of a Veep.  He craves a larger role.

So, these are the things I’ve been thinking about today.  I try to stitch together the various bits of information and find commonalities and synergies.  And maybe it’s all just part of my echo chamber.  But today I heard things that give me a little hope for the future.  And for a Friday that’s pretty good.

10FEB2023 – An Open Letter to Our Leaders on the Right – Get Organized

photog Current Events ,

As the prospective candidates for the Republican presidential nomination circle each other warily I would like to make a suggestion.  Instead of running each other down, why not show which of you are the real leaders by trying to accomplish something useful.  Specifically, why don’t you all start taking action right now to produce an actual foundation for the future.  Stop investing in the Babylonian Captivity that is Washington DC and instead, build an organization that exclusively represents the Right.  Before what remains of Old America is snuffed out gather the embers together into one place and add fuel to the fire and protect it from the deluge.

Some might claim that the Republican Party is that organization.  But that would be a lie.  The Republican Party is a grifters’ trade organization that sometimes accidentally contains a few individuals that got lost while looking for an actual conservative political home and joined out of exhaustion after the futile search.

What is needed is a nexus for coordinating the efforts of those who want to save this country.  It won’t be a new political party.  We don’t need one.  We need a leadership council.  Every Red State governor, state legislator, business executive, police chief, school superintendent and even the few US congressmen and senators who aren’t on the take should meet regularly, even if usually virtually,  to plan strategy specifically to neutralize the harmful effects of the federal government on the lives of the citizens of the Red States.  Setting up a council like this would show the American people that these people intend to make change now and not just string us along until the next presidential election when they’ll promise the moon and accomplish very little.

If they did this then we could take them a lot more seriously when they go on the stump in 2024.  By combining the clout of all the Red States, they can produce actual change in the behavior of even the largest corporations and other organizations.  Imagine if a combination of twenty-five states confronted the American Medical Association with an ultimatum about prescribing puberty blockers to adolescents.  If faced with the choice of having their association discredited in those states or modifying the stance they take on gender dysphoria I’m betting they’ll back down from their current insane stance.

Similar pressure can be applied to outfits like the cable companies and tech companies.  A carrot and stick policy could be applied to force them to stop discriminating against conservative individuals and organizations.  A small beginning has been made by Texas and Florida in suits against internet companies deplatforming those on the Right.  Much, much more needs to be done.  And it has to have teeth that won’t be beholden to federal judges.  There have to be actions that will sting these companies.  Penalties have to be losses in revenues that quickly rise into the millions and in some cases billions of dollars.

These states could also standardize and optimize the policies they take with respect to schools and colleges and their tendencies to proselytize young people with leftist ideas.  Ron DeSantis has recently taken the first stab at this with a Florida state college.  Multiply this by a thousand and it will be a home run for our side.

And how about all the corporations that knowingly turn a blind eye to the use of illegal alien workers.  If all these states started coming down very heavily and in tandem on even a large company like Walmart, I’m sure it would create enormous pressure on that company to toe the line.  And that would have a positive effect on the legal residents of these states.  Salaries would rise and job opportunities would open up for young people.  Certainly, some jobs would disappear, basically slave labor types of work.  But that’s what automation is for anyway.

One industry that we could really impact is the book sellers who cater to the public schools.  Rejecting any critical race theory (CRT) propaganda in the school books should be a priority.  And mandating these changes across the country would in one fell swoop force these book companies to change their ways or lose out on what must be billions of dollars in orders.  Now that would be a tremendous victory for the Right.

These kinds of actions only happen when a clearly thought-out plan is instituted and maintained by intelligent and dedicated individuals.  And it won’t work unless it is coordinated across all the remaining Red States.  The financial clout of tens of millions of people and the power of state governments acting in unison will catch the attention of every organization that has to make a profit or depends on the approval of state agencies.

Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis have done important things that show they understand our plight.  To a lesser extent other leaders on the Right have responded over the last few years to the provocations of the Left.  But it’s not enough and it won’t get us anywhere.  One state will be attacked by the feds and maybe brought to heel.  It will take a continental scope, maybe even including one or two of the saner Canadian provinces to successfully resist the poison being exported by Washington DC.  We need to organize and coordinate if we ever hope to win back this country.  And it needs to start now in February 2023.  Not in 2025.  Wake up gentlemen, the clock is ticking.

Skipping the Disunion of the States

photog Current Events , , , ,

So they’re going to shoot Dopey Joe up with Ritalin and fill the gallery with BLM and Antifa and everybody will clap for the Ukraine and award Joe the Congressional Medal of Honor for shooting down the Chinese Balloon.  Does that sound like a good time to you?

I don’t think I could stand that much fun.  I think I’ll skip it.  I’ll use the time on something more productive.  I’ll scrape hard water stains off the shower floor.  I’ll be MIA this afternoon so I’m writing this piece now.  I read an article about the approach Ron DeSantis took for reforming that Florida state college.  He appointed conservatives to the Board of Directors and they fired the college president on day one.  Now they’re working on removing the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion department and will begin hiring new professors for the upcoming school year.

Now, that’s the way to do it.  Cut off the head and start over.  No pussyfooting around the edges.  Go for the jugular.  It’s beautiful.  Now, how about the rest of the Florida State University system?  I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.  I think the country gains much more with Ron DeSantis as the governor of Florida as opposed to him being president.  The president is a hostage of the intelligence agencies.  He should be the chairman of the Red State governors’ council (when they get around to forming one) and he can begin to help the rest of the country free itself from Washington’s corrosive effects.

It’s going to take coordination and planning to begin neutralizing the damage that Washington does and Ron DeSantis could maximize the good he can do by beginning to formalize a relationship between the Red States.  The first step would be to define what a Red State is.  Would it just consist of republican dominance of the state’s government?  Or would it include social positions too?  Obviously too much purity testing would blow up the whole process of forming a coalition but I think some list of basic positions must be established.  But they should make a start on it.  And high on the list of actions is a mechanism for protecting their citizens from federal persecution for the unconstitutional actions of the federal government.

And protecting police officers and police departments from the Justice Department is at the top of the list.  The chaos we’ve lived through for the last decade on account of Obama’s Justice Department attacking the police proves that.  Without the police doing their job things descend into anarchy, as we’ve seen in all the big cities of late.

So, the 2024 election is on everybody’s minds.  But I’m more interested in seeing the governors get together and start to organize themselves into something that can help us now.  Because as far as I can tell, the federal government is lost.  At the very least, if Ron DeSantis wants to be president, he’d better leave a successor to carry on the work he started.  Maybe he can have his wife get the job.  I’m sure he’ll have some influence with her and make sure she doesn’t go Left.  Then when he is term-limited out he can get back to work in Florida trying to restore freedom to America, one state at a time.
