How History Qualifies Truth! Consider John, Sam, Martin, Saul and Tucker.

THREE ODD HIGHLIGHTS
FROM PROVERBS CHAPTER 18:


#13 He who answers a matter before he hears it. It is folly and shame to him.

 #15 The heart of the prudent acquires knowledge and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.

 #17 The first one to plead his cause seems right until his neighbor comes and examines him.
 
For history to be History, context matters.
 It matters more than anything else if discovering and understanding, "Truth," is the goal.
 
Through the last few decades, the most influential voice in reshaping views on American History, including beliefs about, "America's Revolution," was social activist 
Saul Alinsky. His teachings and mentoring literally shaped the attitudes and actions of Presidents Obama and Clinton as well as Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who wrote her thesis paper on Alinsky's work and philosophy. 
 
Alinsky wrote the book, “Rules for Radicals,” which I believe, wrongly characterized the beginning of America’s Revolution as a well planned and well executed manipulation for advancing acts of, "necessary," injustice.
 
He attributed the success and momentum of the American uprising to the, "necessary," manipulations called for by Samuel Adams, second cousin to John Adams. Alinsky presented unjust manipulation as the central, "necessary," feature of our American form of Governing.
 
But Alinsky conveniently ignored the greater accomplishment of Sam's second cousin John Adams, who under great duress and threat to his own life fought for and won the acquittal of the British soldiers that fired on the taunting crowd at the, “Boston Massacre.”
 
The success of the American cause was not advanced nearly as much by the intimidating agitation promoted by Sam Adams, as our current culture would have you believe. It's cohesive strength was advanced more by a growing faith in the kind of character that John Adams displayed through this act that he much later labeled as;
 
“One of the best pieces of service I have rendered my country. Judgement of death against those soldiers would have been as foul a stain upon this country as the executions of the Quakers or witches.” Adams wanted a nation of rule and law, not one of mob justice, even if it meant defending members of the oppressive army of his enemy.
The story is portrayed in the video below.

John Adams: The President Who Defended the Redcoats
 
The cementing factor that allowed, the formation of a, “New American Union,” a union of formerly loyal British Subjects aligned with American Revolutionaries was based on this type of, “Equal Justice.” A blind justice under law, according to the commonly held Judeo-Christian Ethic. This was drastically different than the politically enhanced narrative intended by Sam Adams or imposed by King George. 
 
Fears and the strong desire for control fought against this, Best Outcome," on both sides. But in the end, the courage of conviction to discover and uphold truth won. 
 
Today, commentator Tucker Carlson has come under fire for making public and providing comment on the recently released videos pertaining to the January 6th event in Washington D.C..  Is this the type of truth that Tucker is seeking? What do you think? Should he be shut down? Or encouraged?
 
Take a moment to listen to what he has to say and consider history  before deciding what you think?

The link below also presents another perspective on the U.S. deaths that occurred through the many months of what journalists called, the "mostly peaceful," anti-Trump-election and BLM protests. This article is from a news source from outside of the U.S. Please take a look.  

At least 25 Americans were killed during protests and political unrest in 2020




(click link below to read article.)

The vast majority of deaths described in this article were the result of violent opportunists, enticed by the chaos and vulnerability that these continuing protests, frequently turned riots, repeatedly created. This is the type of manipulation that both Samuel Adams and Saul Alinsky called for.

In August of 1963 another activist, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. stated, “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” Below is the final portion of his last speech on April 3, 1968. Earlier in this speech he described his deep commitments to resisting intimidation, to strengthening the brotherhood of humanity, to strive for economic and racial justice through non-violence and his profound appreciation for the source of his hope and strength.


Unusual courage and strength of character is what he and John Adams displayed. This strength of character did more than, "make them known." It empowered and directed many others in our nation to find their strength of character as well and caused Adams to be elected as our second President of the newly formed United States of America.

This clip from HBO dramatized the challenges he faced:



Although the Tucker Carlson presentation may seem inflammatory,  we as a people have a responsibility to perceive and appreciate what is true even more than the feelings of compassion or anger that move us emotionally. We have a responsibility even when the truth challenges our personal prejudices, the narratives of our culture or the idealism of our friends. 

In contrast, to John Adams' demonstration of sacrificial integrity, and Martin's courageous commitment to non-violence our current political administrators actually encouraged the ongoing agitation that extended this chaos, and our media and criminal prosecutors obscured these deaths and refused to prosecute the property crimes that so effectively destroyed many of our communities. This was truly an example of the kind of, "necessary," injustice that second cousin Samuel Adams and Saul Alinsky called for.  

Rather than Tear Down: Commit to Build and Strengthen!

As Americans we have a historic civic responsibility to commit too, and encourage everyone we know to reject and refuse to be involved in socially destructive organizations and events. As individuals, if or when something we are involved in starts to go badly, we need to resist, challenge wrongdoing or even vote with our feet and leave immediately. REPEATED escalations to violence and community destruction is what separated the January 6th event from the other protests of that time. On the January 6th rally, the vast majority attendees simply left. They did not remain to provide coercive force of power and cover for the insurrectionists. They simply left and did not return for repeat performances. 

The challenges of today are not really that different than the challenges faced in times past. These challenges have been common t
hrough out human history as has injustice when systems fall short or fail, especially when they are overwhelmed. But are the turmoil's of today the result of flawed people working in imperfect systems or are they the deliberate acts of destructive manipulators working behind the scenes? Consider...
 

The Cloward-Piven Strategy: Orchestrating A Crisis So Government Can “Solve” It


See article at: 

and the original article that presents the manipulative principle in great detail. It is well worth the read. The title is misleading as it dismisses the human costs of the political power they seek.

See it at:

Every system known to mankind can fail when it is overwhelmed, be it our Criminal Justice System, our Court System, our Public Safety and Policing System, our Immigration System, our Health Care System and even our Financial System. And they all fail more often, more severely and cause more harm when they are overwhelmed. 

Doesn't it seem odd that under some administrations the phenomena of systems dependence and overload decreases, and under other  administrations recently working systems seem to explode? 

In the second example, we are told that these failures provide those leaders with opportunities to, "build back better." Like in the article above.

But what about the suffering and destruction that occurred in the explosion? And why don't the losses that we the people experience affect the leaders that created them? On the contrary these leaders reap extreme rewards in power, prestige and wealth. 

I wonder if Sam Adams, or Saul Alinsky would have felt the same about these necessary injustices if their family members were unintentionally caught in the riots that they inspired? If they had been shot, brutalized or crippled? I am certain that if they thought their loved ones were in harms way the would have warned them. But what about the rest of us. People are not pawns to be discarded. 

I believe that we should take these recent events with their governmental responses as a warning. Our choices are simple. Either we need to submissively surrender our critical thinking skills and embrace the ultimate knowledge and control that these leaders seek to  impose, "for our welfare," or learn from the, "truths," of history.

Consider this comparison to a centrally controlled life under socialism in East Germany before the wall came down. 

In my opinion, if we are truly seeking Justice. We need to rediscover and be led by the genuine truths of history. We need to do as John Adams did and exert our,  "Utmost in Character," and as Martin Luther King Jr. did in," Continuing in Courage," to cause the systems that we all rely on to succeed, to the true benefit of our friends, our families and our communities. 

Thanks' for reading, and be sure to stay informed. Be sure to ask hard questions. And be sure to support conservative candidates. Because, "Conservatism," a 
commitment to build on our proven successes and working principles is far more beneficial than the, "necessary destruction," of tearing down to build-back-better on unproven theories through consolidated governmental power and control. 

And for goodness sake, be sure to register and vote.

Nothing Funny About Surrendering Our Autonomy

When I was a kid,
"Mad Magazine"
was Funny and Outrageous!

(Double-Click-Picture to Enlarge)

But with the topics in the picture above... 
"Not so much." 

Have you been following any of the hearings that are going on in our House of Representatives?

So How did we get to this place in American History? 

How did we abdicate our assumed freedom of organized  political expression to the whims of an elitist media.
  
How did we underestimate their intent?

How did we allow our, "Politically Correct," Elite Class to;

1) LEGALLY alter our Election Rules to place rural communities at a disadvantage.

2) Project their offensive cultural biases through our public media without opportunity for rebuttal?
 
3) Control and Censor Public Social Media Communications.
 

In the critical moments of the last Presidential campaign The President's microphone went silent.... 

(According to President Macron of France.)

Well not only his microphone. That avenue of communication had been blocked long before the election as his message was continually hijacked and subjected to pundit spin. From the beginning of his campaign, Trump's statements to the media were consistently censored, or conveniently contorted to fit the narratives that would feed the media's thirst for creating contempt.

Many say Trump was a fool for his blunt, kneejerk, from the gut campaigning style. They say that he got exactly what he deserved for his crassness and harsh criticism of the, "Traditional Press!"

Didn't he label them, "Fake News." What should he expect?

Others applauded his maverick resourcefulness and determination as he maneuvered in and around the traditional media moguls, bumping and badgering and blazing new pathways for expressive freedom and dialogue.

Regardless... When the, "Official Press," wasn't, misrepresenting his motivations by innuendo or deemphasizing and minimizing his many accomplishments, they simply ignored him. As they do to this day.

Do you remember his obsessive chantings of, "Lock her up?" 

When I heard it I considered it, "way over the top," and judged him as being pompous. But in time, it was actually understandable. When you consider the findings of the Durham Probe and who financed the massive public deception resuling in an unjustified impeachment trial. Consider the video content on this topic below.

(Note: this is not Fox News)

But, why so much with this President? Was this really a new response? Or was it just, his boisterous presence that pushed these activist out from the shadows like so many hungry rats.


What about Trump's monumental international success in dealing with the Israeli/Arab crisis, This Jerusalem Post Article is titled...

DIPLOMATIC AFFAIRS:
The Abraham Accords domino effect will lead to more peace deals... 
It was hard to predict in January 2020 that, by the end of the year, Israel would have relations with four more Arab countries.  By LAHAV HARKOV
Published: JANUARY 1, 2021 13:53

(see full article content at link below)
https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/the-abraham-accords-domino-effect-will-lead-to-more-peace-deals-653940

These treaties were considered so important that they were labeled, "The most important strategic development in the region," by Amwar Mohammed Gargash, diplomatic advisor to the President of the United Arab Emirates, at the 2022 BR24 Munich Security Conference. Strategic, because of the, "Agenda of tolerance, stability and prosperity," that they created.

A more likely assumption is that his political presence and unique successes in fostering U.S. and Multinational Autonomy, as displayed in the Abrahamic Peace Accords, p
osed a threat. It threatened those who were anxious to resume their agenda of  inflaming areas of opposition and conflict and then profiting from the process of providing weapons and funding activist elements in opposing factions.

But since the 2020 election, with our very abrupt and awkwardly executed withdrawal from Afghanistan, coupled with our return to the divisive policies of Obama, Kerry and Biden, we appear to be resuming this middleman role and abandoning the job of genuine Peacemaker.

And in the, "Biden Vacuum", China has stepped forward. 

Just recently they have seized the momentum created by Trump to broker a peace plan between Iran and Saudi Arabia.

China’s President Xi Jinping is also presenting a twelve point plan for ending the war in Ukraine that President Zelensky is anxious to respond too. Will President Xi succeed?

But enough about Biden. What about Trump's accomplishments? Shouldn't we recognize the international cooperation and order that Trump's policies brought to Mexico and the U.S. Southern border during his time in office? 

What about the reductions in human trafficking and reductions in drug smuggling during his term? 

Our current approach has transferred hundreds of millions to even billions to the Cartels who hold the monopoly on providing illegal access across our Southern Border. Lets not forget the brave sacrifices that Mexican candidates made with the hopes for change during Trump's time in office where international border cooperation increased.

Mexico: 130 politicians killed ahead of elections


And let's not forget to compare Trumps' Presidential response to the Global Covid-19 Pandemic, to how other administrations responded to the AIDS crisis just a few years earlier.

The following Health and Human Services article from September 16, 2020 describes the ACTION Trump took that led to multi-millions of doses that were administered before he left office. This included the very vaccinations that Joe Biden received.

https://www.defense.gov/News/Releases/Release/Article/2349357/trump-administration-releases-covid-19-vaccine-distribution-strategy/

This quick and focused action allowed over 3 million doses to be delivered to the public by December 13, 2020. His was an emphasis on providing options, not punishments and control.
 

delivered to all 50 states

If your current understanding does not recognize these facts, it is probably due to the effect of what Trump bluntly described as,

"Fake News."
Or more precisely,
the consistent patterns of politically
motivated selective, biased or even
activist reporting that dominate
so many U.S. media platforms.


So how did somebody like Trump get elected in the first place?

Early on in the race, candidate Trump, had established many effective, pathways to communicate with the American people. Through social media channels and in person rallies. These were his most direct means. As you may remember he spoke and, "Tweeted," freely and frequently on various social media channels.


...and this is where the CRITICAL SILENCING occurred!
...During the clutch moments of the 2020 election!


In fact, his communications were officially blocked and their content degraded in the most humiliating ways!

Consider the response of French President Emanuel Macron to these acts of censorship...

"...suddenly cut the mic and put the mic on mute and killed the platforms where it was possible for him and his supporters to express themselves...because of the speech is decided by a private player, a private social network. I want it to be decided by a law voted by your representative or regulation..."

This sentiment was harmonized with by several European Leaders.
 
But was this rejection of both candidate and President Trump by our Social Policy elites, social media moguls and mainstream narrators valid? 

Had Trump truly fallen from the favor of the American people? 

Although his antics were often annoying, the SURVEYS of the time say a DEFINITE NO! Consider the link below that describes the popularity of President Trump during the very time in question...

On the contrary...
American's that were polled
expressed great favor for Trump

Consider this 20/20 Gallup Pole

So what did happen?

President Trump Permanently Banned From
Leading to additional widespread censoring and social cancelling according to the normalization of imposed, "Political Correctness."




Jim Jordan CALLS OUT "BIG MEDIA"
and "BIG TECH" Mar 12, 2021
"....Today big tech has more (political power) than Andrew Carnegie, J.P. Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, and Henry Ford combined." through controlling the content of what we see."

And in harmony Glenn Greenwald calls for long overdue Anti-Trust-Legislation to protect the public from the monopoly like power of these biased organizations.  




So to our shame in the eyes of the world, we continue under the yoke of our media led elitist control. 
  
So, who would have actually won in 2020 
if there had been no interference to hindered the process of a free and fair election
Who knows?  No one knows for sure, but we do know that no election has ever been run perfectly. 

But the size of the margins of error do matter because it is in the margins that the elections are often won. 

I am certain that we can do better. We must!

But all of that is behind us now. What matters now is that we support our elected Representatives who are working to correct these problems.

We all need to Wake Up and Demand 
the best government possible.


One that is responsive and accountable to all of our people! The world is counting on us to act.

So write your legislators and let them know your concerns with the abusive powers of both, "big tech," and biased news organizations that seek to silence the voices of those in rural areas and those that continue to hold traditional values.

How affirmation killed the boy who cried wolf

How affirmation killed the boy who cried wolf! Our passive aggressive “Kindness...”  




Do you remember the story of the shepherd boy who was so unpopular, his  neighbors left him to die? Instead of providing responsible oversight and teaching him through appropriate consequences, they just left him to his own ends. 

They literally desensitized themselves to the dangers the boy faced,  blamed him for failing to meet their expectations, and left him to die.

Even though they knew he lacked the maturity to deal with the dangers, they closed their eyes, turned away and lost him to the wolves along with their their pasture full of mutton.

This story always makes me ask, where were the adults?

Today we have created similar circumstances in our homeless communities. But instead of failing one shepherd boy, we now have failed to prepare portions of an entire generation. Or so it seems.

How, you say? By relieving ourselves of our generational responsibilities. Our responsibility to instill maturity through  appropriate and protective consequences; through providing reality based social and moral structures. 
 
Personally, I am shocked that we have become so desensitized. I know that other nations like India had normalized apathetic indifference long ago. That they routinely accept the impending deaths of the destitute and starving just outside their doors with barely a pause. But here in America? This is new for me. How about you?

But it is true! Right now, countless numbers of our young people are literally dying in the streets of the cities we live in as we casually support those that perpetuate their enslavement to addictions. 
 
Again, I am not talking about India or Asia. Thousands of our young adults and children die as prey to an enemy far more cunning than any pack of wolves ever could be.

How could this be? The video below talks about a tent camp much like the ones in your neighborhood.

But could there be a bigger picture?

Do we live in a purely capitalistic world, controlled only by supply and demand, or are there other forces at work? For the bigger picture, we have to consider other causes and effects, and what is likely to come next if political powers are involved, because, believe it or not, this could actually be a visible part of a much larger global movement. Below I will present a possible scenario, and end with a description of what happened in a free country that was forcibly placed under a tightly controlled socialist system.

Currently the producers of fentanyl in China are working tirelessly in concert with the Cartel networks of Central America to EXPLODE the supply and rapid distribution of very cheap, highly addictive, deadly drug products to an American army of mostly young, volunteer users of which many are hopelessly addicted to their products.

 Yes, out of their seeming generosity the Chinese suppliers have cut prices to rock bottom levels to make the supply affordable and profuse in clockwork harmony with our Covid shutdowns and the disruptions of the recent BLM global protest movements. Yes those were the protest movements that Vice President Harris labeled as essential! Did you participate? 

The leaders of this movement chose to signify their goals with the upraised, “Communist fists of solidarity.” 

This movement was extremely effective and triggered a majority of our US legislators to further align their efforts with the leader of the, "People for the American Way. The result was to stop the vast numbers of criminal prosecutions and call for the defunding  and restricting of protective police interventions. 

It was the igniter that lit the fires of social change. Fires that effectively desensitized the people of America

Consider the video below. It was created five years ago and as you can see, the efforts of this oligarch have been very, very effective. 


But how can you say that! Wasn't this movement an awakening of the global conscience! Didn't it awaken the masses to struggle against class and racial oppression and the abuses of, "Puritanical," sexual morality! Aren't we embracing freedom? We are a, "Progressive," people! Aren't we?

And we as a progressive people have responded in perfect harmony with their goals!  We have enhanced and broadened the distribution of death by cutting our focused police enforcement efforts; by decriminalizing most drug sales and use, and by refusing to prosecute the property crimes and other related abuses that allow continued use the like theft and prostitution that funds their efforts.
 
Through these, seeming “Progressive Advances,” our city centers have been shut down, many of our small businesses bankrupted and our communities have begun to rot and decay. Currently record numbers of our growing volunteer army of addicts die quietly on the sidelines of our society. A tribute to our newly found, ”Politically Correct Compassion.”
 
But is this the worst of it? Or could there be more to come?
 
Have you stopped to consider what will happen when China’s benevolent pricing wanes thin and she raises the price of the drugs so many thousands now cherish so deeply?
 
What will this voluntary army do? Will it continue to lie dormant on the sidelines dying quietly as they do now. With their habit maintenance costs so comfortably low? Or will they rise up and violently take whatever they believe they need to feed their  addiction. Although already huge in comparison to past decades; This problem is much smaller than it could be due to a seeming generosity in keeping pricing low. But what will happen when the price doubles? Or triples? Or quadruples?
 
Commitment to feeding an addiction is greater than commitment to country or commitment to racial justice or commitment to family or religion or political beliefs or even personal integrity or opinion.
 
At America’s birth, a gunshot occurred that historians say was heard around the world. At that time, the people in the colonies united to fight for what they saw as freedom. Today I wonder whether I will also hear shots fired at people like me that fail to embrace today’s progressive global revolution. It clearly is time to WAKE-UP and take our country back. Fortunately the generations that preceded ours created a form of Government that maximized a true diversity of opinion and more importantly a search for true diversity of benefit. 
At one time this was the true meaning of, "for the public good." Actions that would benefit every part of society.

Imagine how quickly the Covid epidemic would have ended if our leaders dedicated their efforts to exploring the diversity of medical and scientific opinion and benefit, rather than maximizing fear through punitive punishments and reality distorting narrative controls.  

Our system of representative government still exists and can function again if we the people choose to speak up. Not with the communist fist of blind solidarity, but with the resolve of faith and reason and genuine love for our fellow man and woman. I am hoping that it is not already too late.
 
Two years ago I asked many of you to pray with me that God would deliver our world from the scourges brought on by the Covid pandemic, both through the illness and through our many overreactions and punishments we inflicted on each other. 

Today I am asking you to pinch yourself, open your eyes, and WAKE-UP and SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING around you and then pray soberly for our nation and also find ways to do your part as an American citizen. It's time to become active in campaigns and vote intelligently.

If you by chance have formed an allegiance to the progressive views signified by the upraised, “Communist fist of solidarity,” I think the following video will be enlightening.
 
As I have mentioned in previous posts, I was adopted from a German orphanage shortly before the creation of the Berlin Wall. My extended birth-family lived on the Communist side in the German Democratic Republic. I reunited with them as an adult at age 52. 

The following Video describes the changes they experienced as they were forcefully molded into a Socialist Collective State that was committed to the goals of absolute equity for the working class.  

The video is a combination of personal testimony and historical documentary. 

I added the subtitles to present my family history and highlight the parallels I see between the changes they experienced and what we are experiencing today.

Video Information:

 An adoptee‘s POV on East Germany,
Collectivist thought and sacrifice
 
This personalized video is focused on how citizens in the new German
Democratic Republic adapted from childhood to adulthood. It presents
how my birth family immigrated to East Germany, the lives of people
their age upon their arrival, and how they adapted.
 
It also highlights our reunification. Personal photography, video and
comments are interspersed as themes intersect. Throughout the
video, I provide a running commentary of how the forced changes in
the German Democratic Republic compared with changes I see happening
here in the United States. This video is presented as a viewpoint commentary
of the content I described.

The original source, “The Lost World of Communism,” was produced
by Peter Molloy and Lucy Hetherington and debuted on BBC Two
on Saturday, March 14, 2009. It was the first in a series of three. The video titled,
“A Socialist Paradise; How the collapse of communism affected people in the
'socialist paradise' of East Germany,” was used.
 
This was the first in a three-part British documentary series examining the legacy
of communism and offering glimpses into the daily lives and thoughts of those
living behind the Iron Curtain between 1945 and 1989.
 
It utilized film and television footage and recollections from personal interviews
and scenes from historical events. It and the other two episodes can be
viewed on you-tube as well as many other internet sites that feature documentaries.
 
The original is considerably longer, and covers many topics that I have not
included, some of which would be considered, “adult only,” topics with
sexually explicit scenes. All of these, including any revealing displays of nudity
have been intentionally omitted from this video, as these topics are not specific to
the viewpoint commentary I am presenting.
