The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS), though the top court in the Judiciary, a co-equal branch of the government, was not visible in the public eye for the first 140-plus years of its existence. It was actually not provided with a building of its own until 1935. With the nation functioning relatively smoothly under traditional values, the court operated below the radar for many years. But as progressives started working their way into the highest levels of the American government and culture, the SCOTUS was put under a spotlight, with added attention focusing on them since the 1960s.…

The two main pillars of the left’s huge push to deconstruct the American way of life, are immigration and education. They demonstrate that the massive divide between the main political parties is irreconcilable. The hijacked democratic party, which to me is better identified as the Marxist Party USA, is promoting legislation that would have been unthinkable even under the Obama administration. Their leadership, including former President Biden, had been publicly against illegal immigration, but recently, has done a 180 abandoning their concerns previously stated on the U.S. House and Senate floors. Why would they do this? Illegal immigration is essential…
In spite of their rhetoric, progressives who insist they are trying to unite Americans and help the economically disadvantaged, women and children, are in fact pushing an agenda that hurts these groups the most. In many homes, the cost of owning and driving automobiles is a significant part of the family’s monthly budget. So, when the Biden administration decided to attack their lives by driving up the costs of fuel, trying to force them to buy electric vehicles, they in return, turned on Joe, causing his approval numbers to drop into the low 30s. President Biden’s economic approval ratings have hit a…
Once again, the California unions and the Democratic Super Majority in Sacramento are flexing their Marxist muscles. Organized labor, which has the largest number of lobbyists working to influence politicians working in the state capital city of Sacramento, continues the push for legislation that would force independent contractors to become workers. The reason why is workers can join their union and pay dues, but contractors can’t. Even though a law signed in 2019 could have significant repercussions for those living in and/or do work in the Golden State, they are collectively pushing for the courts to allow it to go…
States like Texas, California, and Arizona have experienced huge growth in the number of Hispanic migrants and illegal aliens who have taken residence within their borders. As their children, who are born in the US become of voting age, and as some of their parents become citizens, their potential votes are considered crucial by politicians. Until recently, the Democratic establishment has been the political party spending hundreds of millions of dollars trying to get them registered, hoping to secure their votes for future elections. In their pitch, they promise free money, while at the same time using fear to try…
In general, every major department in the federal government is led by far-left socially radical, anti-American Marxists. An indoctrinated mob of collectivists, they are all marching to the drumbeat coming from the upper echelons of the deep state, IE, Barack Obama, etc. The foot soldiers in the military and border patrol are still fighting the good fight for law and order, in spite of the directives tying their hands. In a new article posted by the Border Patrol newsroom, “RGV Agents Keep Criminal Migrants and Gang Members off the Streets” Border Patrol agents arrested multiple child sex offenders, gang members,…
Once again President Biden’s administration was forced to put Joe in front of cameras, with his entire speech rolling on at least one teleprompter, to try to explain to the handful of people watching, why he just signed another executive order. Unlike any other politician in recent history, the 79-year-old declining man who occupies the Oval Office struggled big time in doing this most basic of all the presidential duties assigned to him. On Friday after he signed an executive order attempting to protect access to abortion after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, Democrat President Biden misspoke several…
The United States of America was established by former British subjects who invested considerable thought, debate, and compromise in creating our founding documents. As with anyone who develops a business model or any other organizational structure, there were some assumptions our “Founding Fathers” had to include in their decision-making process. They envisioned that those who would be elected, especially the President overseeing the Executive Branch, would put their nation and its citizens’ interests in front of all others. Unfortunately, their ideals faded considerably over the past 2 plus centuries, leaving the citizenry to deal with enemies from outside and within…
Another crazy day in the divided and very poorly governed, United States of America. Since President Joe Biden took office on January 20th, 2021, the federal government is on its way to adding an additional $3 trillion dollars to the national debt. Bloomberg is reporting that “Biden’s 10-year outlook would rack up $14.4 trillion in deficits,” increasing the federal debt to $44.8 trillion. So, what is the party with majorities in the Congress and White House working on to address the economy etc.? In reality not too much, instead, they are working on passing a massive $500B dollar spending bill…
Until recently, those involved in political campaigns, even on the Democratic side, would occasionally provide constructive criticism of their own party. Former Senior Obama Advisor David Axelrod is one on the left who mastered spinning the facts to provide cover for his candidate and employer. As President Biden hits the 18-month mark of his failing term in the Oval Office, news outlets are now asking tough(er) questions from those like Axelrod. The problem for those on the left is Biden’s policies, which many of them support, are not being rolled out/managed well, resulting in confusion and a growing drumbeat for someone…
The education system was invaded by radicals in the 1960s with progressives intentionally going into teaching and school administrations in schools, junior colleges, and universities nationwide. They used the underlying principle of Marxism and early versions of what would become social justice activism, Critical Race Theory, and the overtly racist concept of white frugality. These anti-American educators rolled out the updated curricula for their unsuspecting students and their parents. The teacher’s unions, which have received outside funding and “donations”, fully embraced the left’s social justice doctrine and are requiring all their teachers to fall in line with their national organization’s…
There has always been some tension between the generations. The grandparents, and parents, who have typically reached maturity in their lives are challenged by their children/grandchildren as they try to guide them onto straight and more fulfilling paths. The older family members who already made thousands of mistakes, from small to huge, desperately want to pass on the wisdom learned as a result of going through them. The youth, from as far back as Cain, are convinced they know better. When they resist the instruction from their elders, being driven by their emotions, they start making the same mistakes anyway.…
Once again Joe Biden looks weak and clueless. On Thursday the unpopular president, a former moderate from Delaware, called for Senate Democrats to end the over 100-year filibuster rule in order to pass legislation codifying Roe v. Wade via a national guarantee for obtaining an abortion. The problem is that Biden and his handlers still do not realize that emotionalism has not had an effect on moving the remaining 2 moderate US Senators in their party to vote for ending the well-established and utilized political tool. The left made the same error late last year while trying to bypass the…
Back in the 1990’s I can remember being taught and tested on what the customer-centered corporation I was working for, considered to be their profit chain. Its overall premise was: Happy employees, provide great customer service, creating happy customers, who become long-term shoppers, resulting in higher corporate profits. Fast forward to the 21st century, with the emergence of an increasing push from a global reset, the word equity has been highjacked for social justice purposes. Instead of describing what percentage a stockholder or business owner has in a company’s total value, or the extra value a homeowner has compared to…
Another day and another series of news reports confirmed that a majority of politicians are clueless, yet self-serving. Even so, the most inept people, such as U.S. President Joe Biden or French President Emmanuel Macron, have been able to use their wealth, and social connections and have agreed to sell their souls to donors, on their way to occupying the most powerful positions of in the world. Joe Biden, who prior to running for president, was more of an old-school moderate Democrat who supported the fossil fuel industry. Joe was friends with the late Robert Byrd, U.S. Senator from the…
A significant number of those serving in the leadership of the Democratic party, including President Joe Biden and U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi(D-CA), claim to be practicing Catholics, yet also proudly promote pro-choice policies. How is it, that the same two people who can claim to follow the teachings of the church are also two of the most radical, pro-death politicians in the U.S? This hypocrisy seems strange considering the Catholic Church’s very clear position on abortion. “The human being is to be respected and treated as a person from the moment of conception; and therefore from that same moment…
There have been several pro-abortion protests held since the Supreme Court’s much-needed decision was announced on Friday, overturning the flawed, long-standing,1973 Roe v. Wade ruling. The court’s conservative majority rejected the previously “found” right to an abortion in the text of the U.S. Constitution, sending the decision if babies can be killed in the womb back to the states, as required by the 10th amendment. “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.” Many radical media influencers have reacted via…
Back in the late 1990s, I was a frequent listener to the Mark and Brian show and of Radio shock jock Howard Stern’s daily broadcast on KLOS-FM, which was broadcasting out of the Los Angeles metro area. This was prior to Stern heading over to satellite radio, and during a time when he could get away with pushing the FCC to its breaking point without the radio station, which was making a fortune from his ratings, being forced to give him the boot in lieu of losing their very expensive broadcast license. Stern who back then was a vocal libertarian…
As the dust settles from Friday morning’s Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision, which overturned both Roe v Wade and Casey; the loss of a national Constitutional right to abortion has millions of unhinged pro-abortion activists freaking out in the streets and online. Roe, which was the law of the land for 49 years, was considered by many legal scholars to be full of errors and was judicial activism. The justices in 73 created a right for abortion even though it did not exist in the text of the Constitution. Justice Harry Blackmun, writing for the majority opinion in Roe v. Wade,…

Progressives have been very successful in advancing their causes throughout the United States. By working their way into leadership positions in the public unions, and big tech companies and by funding campaigns of candidates who support Marxism, nearly every aspect of Americans’ lives is influenced by their anti-American talking points. The two main areas that the left has not been able to control, are talk radio and following President Trump’s 3 seated Justices, the Supreme Court. Talk radio because of the efforts of the late, great Rush Limbaugh is the last remaining open media source donated by those espousing conservative…

So much for Utopian dreams and planning, as they never come to pass as expected. My wife and I traveled through Germany in December 2016. I noticed solar panels were visible everywhere including on small, more remote, dairy farm barns. The problem with all the solar, I was told, was the massive amount of subsidies that had been put in place by the pro-climate change majority in Berlin for them, did not work as intended. They eventually ended the programs looking instead for the next greatest renewable energy source to waste their taxpayers’ money on. Though Germany has been a…
Following the national uproar of the popular #METOO movement, which was fully manifested during the confirmation hearings for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and in the successful dethroning of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, the American culture is now having to contend with the push for transgender rights. Expect for the ongoing protests over the upcoming SCOTUS ruling ending Roe V Wade, the news cycle is no longer focused on stories demanding equity in pay, opportunities, and college sports funding for women, it is instead promoting LBGTQ causes, especially transgenderism. The irony of this shift is the victims of this…
History is going to reflect how Marxists successfully deconstructed the American culture, that most of us grew up in, in only 3 generations. While everyday hard-working patriot citizens were dropping their children off at local public schools and/or sending their beloved young adults off to a university, radicals in the Baby Boomer generation, you know the kids involved in the sexual revolution, were indoctrinating these young minds via multiple avenues. The Millenials who were brought up during this period are now in positions of influence. Some are professional athletes, some actors, and others in management or corporate boards at influential…
Throughout our lives, we eventually run into people, organizations, etc, whose actions are excused or at least explained away, justified by others, even though they are wrong from a general morality point of view. Some common examples I have seen over the years: “Well, that’s just John, he always gets loud when he drinks too much.” “She tries to look nice every day, so comes in a little late.” Unfortunately for citizens of the United States, we have a 79-year-old man serving only part-time out of the Oval Office in the White House. Even though President Joe Biden was already…
Virtue signaling for most of my life has been looked down upon, considered to be a vain attempt to get attention from others, using any means possible. Things have obviously changed, especially for those who claim to be carrying on the radical’s far-left, social justice activism mantle. From local school boards up to the White House, they attempt to position themselves in defense or promotion of the latest hot button issue, especially on social media platforms. In a recent example, a small group of Democratic lawmakers actually had the nerve to send an official letter, on U.S. Congressional letterhead, demanding…
Of all the poor decisions and actions that have been taken by American Presidents and their administrations, not securing our borders / poor immigration policies, have immeasurably affected our national security, affecting tens of millions of U.S. Citizens, especially those living in border states. In reality, when considering how many Communists and terrorists from nations including China, Iran, and Afghanistan have been caught, some of whom have made public declarations of wanting to take down the USA, an open border with an invasion underway has to be part of their dreams come true. In May Border Patrol agents at the…
Following the presidential campaign of Joe Biden, in which he spent most of it down in his Delaware home’s basement, the team of handlers assembled to serve the newly elected President, knew they would need to put systems in place to try to prevent Joe from making a fool of himself. Well, in spite of their efforts, President Biden has misspoke while reading off note cards, butchered prepared teleprompter speeches, and their worst nightmare has lied, exaggerated, and misrepresented the administration’s positions when speeching contemporaneously to questions asked by the news media. Biden once again mispronounced the name of the…
As the United States struggles with skyrocketing inflation, gasoline prices, housing/rents, etc., the Biden administration has stretched itself by sending a massive amount of aid to [redacted], while there is a baby formula shortage at home, overwhelming its low-skilled staff. China, on the other hand, has been very focused, growing exponentially via rapidly expanding its industrial base, and by stealing intellectual property. The Red Dragon has now positioned itself, as a world power challenging the United States for supremacy. Taiwan which has been a leader in chip manufacturing has a unique relationship and understanding with China and United States. Because…
For decades, The New York Times, similar to a pre-Musk Twitter, has been the place for liberals to get and expound the left’s talking points. As strictly partisans, they act as kingmakers within the Democratic party. If you have been identified as the candidate they want to support, they will only publish supportive articles while suppressing negative information, even if true. But, if the establishment wants a change in direction, the Times staff can reach unlimited politicians to help build a hit piece on anyone. On Saturday, a New York Times report revealed that many Democratic Party officials have little faith that…
During the 2016 presidential campaign, I can remember speaking with hundreds of millennials, from China, India, and the United States, working in Silicon Valley, who all shared their concerns about the ages of those who were running, Hillary Clinton and former President Donald J.Trump. In addition, some told me they believed the aging baby boomers and Gen X, their parents’ ages, were the problem, and that when they could finally get in power, they would fix the world’s problems. On Monday, Axios, whose target market is the same demographic that I spoke with, raised concerns about President Joe Biden’s 2024…
The United States is considered “the oldest democracy” in the World. The oldest existing nation with a constitutional government in which the people elect their own government and representatives. Those who fought for independence from the British Crown, and established our Constitution and Bill of Rights, did so at the risk of their very lives and fortunes. In line with Biblical teachings, being a sluggard was looked down and if you did not work, you should not expect to eat, common expectations. The nation, after ending the inherited evil of slavery, took off economically right after the turn of the…
