    Biden's Battle of the Bulge
    By: Bill O'Reilly September 2, 2022
    It was strange, Old Joe Biden standing outside Independence Hall
 in Philadelphia warning Americans their "freedom" is in peril.
	Warm summer night. Labor Day Weekend upon us. Few following the
  news cycle.
	But the President was on a mission. And here's what it is.
	Internal Democrat polling now shows a looming disaster in Novem-
  ber's midterm elections. Even weak Republican candidates like
  Herschel Walker in Georgia and Dr. Oz in Pennsylvania have a chance
  to win.
    Despite pro-Biden propaganda spewing from the corrupt media, the
  House is likely to be painted red. The leftists running Joe know
  this.
	In December 1944, Hitler was just about finished; his troops dec-
  imated, the German people demoralized. But the Fuhrer was not going
  quietly. He massed his western troops and attacked through Belgium,
  pushing back allied forces. The Nazi land advance was called "the
  Bulge."
	General George Patton saved the day, as chronicled vividly in my
  book "Killing Patton."
	The Philadelphia speech on Thursday is President Biden's counter-
  attack. His administration is failing, his policies disastrous for
  most Americans. So, now, a final offensive before the November vote.
	Only CNN and MSNBC ran the speech live because it was a partisan
  exercise, not important enough to bump Young Sheldon from his spot.
  The President had little to say other than Donald Trump is a fascist,
  and so are the "MAGA Republicans" who support him.
	**Yawn.**
	Mr. Biden's offensive quickly ran out of gas, just like the Ger-
  man panzers. Old Joe sees a giant threat to democracy. Many Americans
  believe the real threat is wild inflation and nonexistent problem
  solving.
	It is clear the Democrats believe their only chance in November
  is to run against Trump. Again. Trump, the democracy denier. Trump,
  the white supremacist.
	It's all so predictable and foolish. Those Americans who fear
  Donald Trump's return to power will, of course, side with Old Joe.
	But the vast majority of "we the people" simply want a vibrant
  economy and laws enforced. That is obviously way beyond Joe Biden's
  capability.
	Democrats stand behind the President at their peril. He's the
  problem in this country.
	Not Trump.
  By Bill O'Reilly

	Bill really nailed this one.
	Joe thinks that the American people, "We the People" are stupid
  enough to continue believing his river of lies that he has been
  feeding us for some fifty years. He has lost all touch with reality,
  truth, facts, and even what is morally acceptable.
	He tried to tell us that inflation was not happening and then when
  the truth emerged; he pretended like he never said anything.
	He redefined the word "recession" and the corrupt media went right
  along with him.
	Now he tells us that there was 'zero' inflation as of last month
  but failed to mention the reality that he sold enough of our Strate-
  gic Petroleum Reserves, to Russia no less, to manipulate the fact
  that the inflation rate was 9.1% and through his very expensive
  slight of hand, he lowered the actual inflation rate to 8.6%. But
  don't get excited because he will stop robbing the reserves about 
  the time of the midterm election and then gas will go back up.
	Joe Biden is a very dangerous, misguided man who could care less
  about most Americans or the country. He is focused upon "Fundamen-
  tally Transforming America" into a socialist style of authoritarian 
  country on a direct path to bankruptcy.
	We have to join together and take back the nation.
	There are NO M.A.G.A. Republicans or Democratic M.A.G.A.s. We
  should ALL be M.A.G.A. Americans seeking to "MAKE AMERICA GREAT
  AGAIN".
	With God's help and the people's faith it CAN happen.

     Things Dems Ignore Part 2

	Picking back up where I left off explaining how the corruption
  of the left has festered in their lack of patriotism, morals, and
  faith in God and country.
	When Republicans went out to eat, even with family, they were
  harassed and even attacked and some were Senators, Congressmen, and
  White House Staff members with their families. Others were threatened
  by Democrats like Schumer, Waters, Nadler, and dozens of others. They
  tried to stir up mobs to attack them and many found their homes
  vandalized, but what was amazing was Democrats never had any of this
  type of harassment. But they don't talk about that.
	The further we get into this, the more obvious it is that the
  Justice Dept. is as guilty as the Democrats. Try to find any of the
  Democrats that have been indicted for the flagrant violations of
  law and the Constitution for the countless number of criminal acts
  of treason and collusion. 
	Biden lied his way into office by doing nothing at all. He was
  kept in the basement throughout the entire campaign season while
  millions of trump supporters attended dozens of rallies.
	And just like Obama, he has been escorted away from the White
  House whenever anything controversial arises.
	But Joe has taken it one more step. He has spent virtually
  every weekend in Delaware or South Carolina while he avoids nearly
  every briefing held and every time he leaves by Marine One he is
  guided away from the corrupt media.
	The Hunter Biden laptop that the FBI and the Democrats pretend
  does not even exist. It has recently been verified as being
  Hunter's and even with treasonous evidence and Biden's own admis-
  sion of an illegal quid pro quo with Ukraine nothing has happened. 
	Again, they deny and lie and then ignore the entire issue.
	Last year was the most cowardly thing I have ever seen from any
  administration with the disastrous pull out of Afghanistan where
  13 dead American soldiers and $85B of the top military equipment in
  the world was left behind for the most violent and murderous group
  of godless heathens have spent the last year murdering and abusing
  thousands of Afghani citizens with our own weapons. This is all on
  Biden and his corrupt administration. Another conversation liberals
  and Democrats avoid to mention.
	Try to get a Democrat to discuss the huge inflation rate that only
  seems to grow at lightning speed. Adding 2021 and 2022, Biden has
  now grown the rate to about 15-16% with some predicting that this
  is only the beginning but they don't want to talk about that either.
	Another trick is the manipulating of the Labor Participation Rate.
  Trump had increased the participation rate to over 64% of the total
  working population. With Biden, we are now around 59% but even though
  Democrats won't talk about it, you should know that Obama pulled the
  same trick by dropping people from the total population when their
  unemployment benefits ran out, so they no longer exist but it never
  got this bad with Obama. There are currently over 11M eligible peo-
  ple that are unemployed and this administration doesn't care.
	Another trick Obama and now Biden have used is selling our Stra-
  tegic Petroleum Reserves to Russia and using it to slow the in-
  flation and to manipulate the stock market. By selling the reserves
  they hold the oil prices down, a little.
	Biden is currently selling one million barrels of our reserves each
  day for 90 days. This will end right before the midterm elections but
  immediately following the price of gas will surge to some say prices
  a lot higher than they were a few months ago. 
	But don't expect them to mention it on the corrupt media.
	Not sure if I mentioned before about the Justice Dept. was part of
  the Obama, Soros, and Clinton plan to "Fundamentally Transform 
  America".
	Obama started his term with closing the mines that put 7M people
  out of work and then created and hired 7-9K liberal new employees in
  the Justice Dept. to enable the Democrats to get away with anything,
  legal or illegal and break laws and ignore the Constitution. This is
  why there never seemed to be ANY Democrat indicted, arrested, or
  even jailed, no matter how much they lied, cheated, or stole.  
		Obama built this corrupt department, and the Hillary was to
  be next to finish filling the courts with liberal, corrupt judges
  and I think she would have inflated the IRS or the Postal Service
  and the Supreme Court. But they NEVER talk about that. 
	The Deep State and Silicon Valley had no choice but to find a way
  to win the election or they may never regain control and we all know
  truth about the 2020 election. They certainly will never talk about
  that but now the truth is slowly trickling out with the persistence
  of whistleblowers and hardworking, dedicated patriots that are
  producing videos and forming groups like the Convention of States as
  well as privately owned networks that are getting the truth out to
  Americans who spread the good news.
	Biden stood up in front of the cameras this week and claimed to
  have beaten pharma. Just another fabrication of his warped imagi-
  nation.
	The truth is out there on the net if you care to look for it.
  Just ask your question on anything other than Google.
	Biden has spent about 50 years now lying to the American people
  and he has NO conscience. If his lips are moving, he is lying.
	There are dozens of videos just on Joe Biden's lies. He has yet to
  accomplish anything he promised to do.
	Teachers and Parents are fighting back, and America is waking up to
  the truth and the minorities are seeing what they came here for being
  torn away and it is time to stop the small group of corrupt wealthy
  who have spent decades brainwashing the minions and are trying to
  even turn our children into confused, misguided, weak lemmings.
	It is time to not only take back our once great nation but punish
  these hate filled, evil people with vengeance.
	If God is willing and helps us, the Left will pay dearly for their
  actions, hopefully, very soon.

    Things the Dems Ignore

    We apparently have a 2 tiered Justice system.
	There is a long list of issues that the Democrats and the
  Justice Dept. have chosen to pretend never happened. This could
  take a while.
	Since they have been attacking Trump for 7 years now I thought
  they might need a reminder.
	Bill Clinton's Housing bubble they tried to blame on GW Bush.
	Obama manipulated the Labor Participation Rate numbers to cover
  up for his hiring of some 8K loyal liberals to work in the Justice
  and State Dept. 
	This was after he killed off 7M American jobs with 14K useless
  regulations. He had lowered the Labor Participation by over 2% that
  mathematically killed off 5-6 Million Americans whose benefits had
  run out.
	Ask Obama where he went when the Sandy Hook shooting occurred
  or when the hurricane hit the Northeast. If a crisis happened, he
  got away from it as fast as possible.
	Joe pulls the same act now.
	Hillary's destruction of over 30K emails and her server were
  destroyed 15 cell phones and other electronics with hammers after
  they were subpoenaed and pretended it never happened. You know
  "Plausible deniability". More things to ignore.
	Her accusation during the debates with Trump of some Russian
  Collusion with zero evidence seemed like her id talking. You will
  find that in the video of their second debate.
	Hillary, Obama, and Biden's relationship with China has been a
  very bizarre spectacle.
	The meeting of Bill Clinton and Lorretta on the AZ tarmac. Some
  think that is when they handed off the Steel Dossier.
	The Comey investigation when he said she was guilty, but he had
  elected not to prosecute even stunned the Democrats not to mention
  the effect it had on regular Americans.
	Obama failed to turn in over 30 thousand classified documents
  and nothing happened. They ignored it.
  He failed to share that with America as well.
	Millions wasted on the Mueller investigation that turned up
  nothing and the next day they had already acted like it never
  occurred.
	Four dead Americans at the Embassy in Benghazi that Hillary
  lied about why she sent NO help. But what was really sad was her
  comment when she said, "At this point, what difference does it make?"
  She was saying, she really didn't care. Move on people.
	The midnight forcing through of the ObamaCare disaster. 18K
  pages with less than a day for Republicans to even read it.
	At least Joe just runs to Delaware almost ever weekend since he
  was installed. We don't talk about that either.
	We were never supposed to talk about Mr. & Mrs. Obama's
  obvious hatred for America
	Obana only completed 43% of his campaign promises to America.
      The Democrats spent 4 years trashing Trump about the illegal
  immigrants and his treatment of those that crossed the border
  with unaccompanied children. Trump put them in the facilities
  Obama built and used but we couldn't talk about that.
	Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, and their visits to the Epstein
  Fantasy Island. Don't talk about that or the fact that Epstein was
  murdered in his cell before he could share Bill's frequent visits
  to Fantasy Island.
	As soon as Trump announced his run for President the Left went
  all out to demonize him. The corrupt media brainwashed the liberal
  left into hating him but if asked they didn't know why they were
  supposed to hate him they had no answer.
	The lies continue to this day. His words were twisted, skewed,
  and taken out of context but he continued to focus on making this
  country better than he found it. They don't talk about that either.
	As soon as Trump won the election, protests and violent riots
  began but they didn't talk about who was destroying dozens of Left
  run cities. 
	Billions of dollars in destroyed property in the over 500 riots
  from the Charlottesville protest or from the time Trump announced
  his candidacy. They were financed and set free when arrested and
  some elected Democrats even did fund raising for their bail.
	Trump continued dealing with these unamerican attacks while he
  went about his way improving every part of the American economy,
  the reestablishment of an American world superpower, and making
  life better for every part of our lifestyle without any focus on
  any particular race or ethnicity.
	They don't talk about that either.
	Then the China virus was unleashed on the world with an apparent
  focus on the United States.
	What the Democrats did then was unforgiveable. Rather than help
  the Left chose to obstruct. Pelosi even took people and went to
  Chinatown in San Fransisco.
 	Democrats do need to remember "ONE" very important fact though,
  Republicans, patriots, and God NEVER forget.
	There is so much more that Democrats intentionally pretend as
  if it never happened. I think Hunter Biden, while illegally making
  millions, called it "plausible deniability" meaning that if they
  tell the same lie often enough to the gullible weak-minded, they
  will eventually believe it is true. Alinsky's Rule #10.
	Try asking a Democrat about the Russian collusion, the reasons
  for so many failures like inflation, Afghanistan, Hunter Biden's
  laptop, gas prices, the rapidly depleting Strategic Petroleum
  Reserves, the $7T added to the debt, or any other thing you can
  learn the truth by just doing a simple search and they will give
  you the original lie or tell they don't know anything about it.
	I will continue next week with more of the Trump era and other
  things that the Left denies even knowing about. They did not think
  of this on their own. Look up the Cloward-Piven Strategy or Saul
  Alinsky's Rules for Radicals book and you will see how long the
  deep state has been working on this takeover and especially some
  of those involved. Karl Marx, Saul Alinski, George Soros, Hillary
  Clinton and Barry Sorento Obama, and other disciples of the move
  to socialize America. See if you can find their connection.
	Until then, pray, open your mind to the truth, and protect
  your family and children. We have a lot of work to do to wake them
  back up to reality.

	In Washington, Honesty Is Such a Lonely Word
   	COLUMNIST Star Parker

	A favorite game of politicians, when reality does not conform to
  the facts they want, is to simply redefine reality.
	Democrats want big government, a lot of spending and taxation,
  the former of which we are now paying for in inflation, so the new
  strategy of Democrats is to now claim that spending and taxes reduce
  inflation.
	We now have the Senate moving legislation with a price tag of
  $433 billion in new spending and $327 billion in new taxes, and it's
  called the Inflation Reduction Act.
	It's like McDonald's serving up a new Big Mac with more beef,
  more cheese and more sauce, and calling it the Weight Watchers
  Special.
	Our president and Congress are imploding in the polls, and what
  we get from them are word games.
	A commonly accepted definition of recession is two consecutive
  quarters of economic contraction.
	The Commerce Department just reported that the U.S. economy con-
  tracted 0.9% in the second quarter. This follows a contraction of
  1.6% in the first quarter.
	Recession?
	Our president says no way. Our Treasury Secretary, Janet Yellen,
  who apologized recently for being wrong last year, denying that in-
  flation was on its way, held what the press called a "rare stand
  alone news conference" at the Treasury Department, to assure us we
  are not in a recession.
	It's reminiscent of comedian Groucho Marx, who quipped, "Who are
  you going to believe — me or your own eyes?"
	On a similar note, the House has passed the Respect for Marriage
  Act, which now will be considered in the Senate.
	The Respect for Marriage Act would codify into federal law the
  legality of same-sex marriage.
	This is in reaction to a note by Supreme Court Associate Justice
  Clarence Thomas in his concurrent opinion in the recent Dobbs deci-
  sion overturning Roe v. Wade, suggesting that the Obergefell deci-
  sion, in which the court legalized same-sex marriage in 2015,
  should be readdressed.
	Why is this called the Respect for Marriage Act and not called
  the Redefine Marriage Act?
	It's simply more of the Washington word-game culture, which we
  now see in government spending and taxing suddenly being about re-
  ducing inflation, and consecutive quarters of economic contraction
  not necessarily being about recession.
	To call this legislation the Redefine Marriage Act would be
  honest, something simply unheard of in Washington.
 	It is important for same-sex marriage advocates to call this
  the Respect for Marriage Act, because this suggests that, for those
  few thousand years in which no one questioned that marriage is be-
  tween a man and woman, we disrespected marriage.
	Now, in our new enlightened age, we understand the truth that
  marriage includes vows between individuals of the same sex, and thus
  we now respect this sacred institution.
	A recent New York Times poll indicated just 13% of Americans are
  happy with how things are going in our country.
	It's not such a great surprise. Why are Americans so dissatis-
  fied?
	Billy Joel had a hit song years ago called "Honesty."
	"Honesty is such a lonely word / Everyone is so untrue / Honesty
  is hardly ever heard / And mostly what I need from you."
	As we move into elections during these chaotic times, we might
  recall the words of one of the nation's founders, Thomas Paine, who
  observed, "We have it within our power to begin the world over
  again."
	Those who aspire for political office and power might consider
  that many among the 87% who are not happy with our country today
  and where they see it headed, know that truths exist — truths upon
  which a great nation was built — and despair how they have disap-
  peared in our public life.
	Leaders who have the courage to be honest, despite how challeng-
  ing this can be now, will wake up a lot of souls in our nation who
  recall and long for better days.
	** Star Parker **
	Since Star posted this, Democrats have redefined 'recession' and
  have orchestrated some disastrous events, including a raid upon the
  the Trump home in Florida and as with the impeachments and Mueller
  Investigation, Jan 6 Committee, and the 2020 election "Honesty" has
  been tossed in the trash with ethics, morals, and patriotism.
	We HAVE to depend upon God to deliver us from the evil and pray
  that He will save our nation for our children for generations to
  come.

	The Crybaby Leftist Mind
	Victor Davis Hanson / June 30, 2022
	
    Modern progressives assume moral and intellectual authority.
	Consequently, their supposedly superior ends naturally justify
  almost any means necessary to achieve them.
	Among the elite, the Democrats’ “blue wall” states were once con-
  sidered a testament to the wisdom of the Electoral College. When that
  wall crumbled in 2016 to Donald Trump, the Electoral College suddenly
  was blasted as a relic of our anti-democratic Founders.
	The nine-person Supreme Court was once beloved. On issues like
  abortion, school prayer, same-sex marriage, pornography, and Miranda
  rights, the left cheered the court as it made the law and ignored
  legislatures and presidents.
	Republican court picks—Harry Blackmun, William Brennan, Anthony
  Kennedy, Sandra Day O’Connor, Lewis Powell, John Roberts, David
  Souter, John Paul Stevens, Potter Stewart, and Earl Warren—would
  often flip leftward. How could they not be swayed by the greater
  brilliance of their liberal colleagues?
	From affirmative action to Roe v. Wade to Obamacare, apostate Re-
  publican justices for a half-century greenlighted legislating from
  the bench.
	In response, was there any serious right-wing talk of packing the
  court with six additional justices to slow down its overreaching
  left-wing majority—or of a mob massing at the home of a left-wing
  justice? Certainly not.
	But now?
	Suddenly a narrow constructionist majority has returned matters
  of abortion to the states. And the once-beloved court is being
  slandered by leftist insurrectionists as illegitimate.
	Every sort of once-unthinkable attack on the courts is now
  permissible.
	Confidential draft opinions are leaked illegally. A senior senator
  threatens justices by name at the doors of the court. The homes of
  justices are surrounded by heckling protesters. And the very life
  of a justice is threatened by a would-be assassin close to his home.
	Consider also the Senate filibuster. Former President Barack Obama
  not long ago ranted that it was racist and a 180-year-old relic.
	Obama’s logic was infantile. When Democrats were in the Senate mi-
  nority, he was giddy that the filibuster could slow down the Repub-
  lican majority. Indeed, while a senator, Obama himself filibustered
  the nomination of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito.
	When Democrats were in the majority, however, a pouting Obama
  blasted the filibuster as a racist, Jim Crow roadblock.
	Can the Jan. 6 committee issue some universal declaration that de-
  feated candidates should not question the integrity of an election,
  much less call for it to be ignored?
	Apparently not. In 2016, a defeated Hillary Clinton claimed the
  winner, Donald Trump, was illegitimate—this from the architect of
  the entire Russian-collusion hoax.
	Clinton then trumped her own inflammatory rhetoric by urging Pres-
  ident Joe Biden not to accept the 2020 tally of the balloting if he
  lost.
	Former President Jimmy Carter agreed that Clinton won the 2016
  election and Trump was thus illegitimate.
	Hollywood actors appeared in commercials, insurrectionary-style,
  urging Republican electors to renounce their constitutional duties
  and instead elect Clinton.
	On racial matters, the left is most intellectually bankrupt.
	During the recent confirmation hearings of an African American
  nominee to the Supreme Court, federal Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson,
  the left alleged that tough questioners were racists and sexists
  for “bullying” Jackson.
	Yet she got the kid-glove treatment compared with the character
  assassinations of past conservative nominees. Brett Kavanaugh was
  smeared as teen-aged rapist and targeted by former Democratic media
  heartthrob Michael Avenatti, now an imprisoned felon.
	Currently, loud mobs of affluent, young white women have been
  circling the home of African American Supreme Court Justice Clar-
  ence Thomas—just 1 of 5 court justices who voted to let the states
  decide the status of abortion.
	Thomas did not write the majority opinion that overturned Roe v.
  Wade, but then again, leftists have a toxic fixation with blacks
  who do not appreciate their condescension.
	In the left-wing mind, the buffoonish Capitol riot on Jan. 6 was
  an “insurrection.”
	Yet, the much larger May 31, 2020, riot that sought to storm the
  White House grounds and sent the president into a bunker was the
  sort of mob violence that “was not going to stop,” in the words of
  now-Vice President Kamala Harris.
	The recent pro-abortion mob assault on the Arizona state Senate,
  the left insists, was an apparent cry of the heart.
	What would the left do if after the 2022 midterms, a Republican
  majority Congress emulated its own infantile tantrums?
	Imagine a new House speaker, Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., tearing up
  Biden’s State of the Union address on live television.
	How about the House impeaching Biden twice, even as a private
  citizen in 2025?
	Envision a 22-month, $40 million investigation of the entire Biden
  quid pro quo, corrupt family syndicate?
	What if McCarthy booted left-wing congressional representatives
  from key select committees?
	And what if conservatives showed up screaming at the gates of one
  of Obama’s three mansions?
	How odd that leftists are destroying the very customs and tradi-
  tions whose loss will come back to haunt them when the Democrats
  lose the Congress in November.
	Crybaby tantrums won’t win over the public. These nonstop,
  puerile meltdowns have turned off most Americans who tire of whiny
  narcissistic hypocrites.
	***Victor Davis Hanson***

   	Mr. Hanson has so clearly stated the difference between an evil
  mob of unruly, amoral, and unethical whiners while the true patriots
  who strive to adhere to the rule of law, stand by and await their
  their once again opportunity to clean up the mess the Democrats
  always seem to leave behind.
	Pray that God gives another chance to fix this once great nation.

	Joe Biden is Lying About Savings Accounts and Debt

      The economy of the United States, for all intents and purposes,
  is on its way off a cliff.     
	Americans are postponing years-long plans they’ve made for
  retirement. Families across the country are spending multiple times
  more on gas than they’ve spent in previous years; that’s not to
  mention the rising costs of groceries and other essentials.	
	One poll after the next has shown the economy is a top concern in
  the minds of the American people. It will also significantly impact
  how folks vote in the midterm elections.	
	Despite all of these documented and consistent economic problems,
  Joe Biden has a very different perception. According to the current
  president, Americans are just thriving when it comes to their
  finances.	
	Breaking Down Biden’s Admitted Views on the Nation’s Economy
	On Friday, Biden put out a series of falsehoods about current
  economic conditions, falsehoods that are astounding even for him.	
	The president stood before the country and declared that a 
  "robust" economic recovery has been accomplished amid his leader-
  ship.
  Biden would later go on to incorrectly claim that debt is down,
  savings accounts are greater, and financial comfort is up since he
  has been into office.	
	This stunned many Americans, causing some people to question
  whether the president is living in an alternate universe of sorts.
	Multiple economists are saying a recession is coming. Just
  earlier this week, the BlackRock CEO stated inflation will remain
  with the nation for years on end.	
	Yahoo Finance even recently reported significant drops that have
  happened and are anticipated in Americans’ rates of saving money.
  Meanwhile, the Bureau of Labor and Statistics confirms wages are on
  a downward spiral and being outdone by inflation.	
	During the first quarter of this year alone, nationwide credit
  card debt surged up to $15.84 trillion, a major climb from the
  initial rate of $266 billion.
	
    An Avalanche of Negative Feedback
	As of Saturday morning, “#FJBiden” was trending on Twitter. The
  content of these tweets is full of Americans calling out the direct
  lies that Biden spread on Friday.
	Many people claimed the president is either delusional, getting
  bad intel from his advisers, or simply trying to gaslight the
  nation.
	Whichever it is, Americans who are living in the real world
  have pointed out the true reality of what they’re up against.
	Another common theme amongst criticism of Biden is how much
  people miss the leadership and presidency of Donald Trump.
	I saw this from an anonymous writer on the internet but is is
 no longer current so I will adjust it.
	Added to the gas prices are taxes, building supplies, store
 shelves empty and almost all types of insurance.
	Since Biden TOOK office he has sold, given, or worked deals that
 have drained nearly half of the Strategic Petroleum Reserves of oil.
	Recently, it was reported that he has sold millions of barrels
 of our reserves to China, of all places. We are early in his plan to
 distribute 1 million barrels a day for 90 days.
	Folks, the United States can no longer afford the destruction
 of our economy under this corrupt administration.
	We have to band together and support the Convention of States or
 the Republican candidates in the upcoming mid-term elections.
	The Democrats and the dark money are working hard at disrupting
 the state legislatures that make the rules in each state to govern
 the process.
	Fron Convention of States.

	We have all been conned by the corrupt media along with those
 select few who are acting out their plan to ruin our economy to a
 point of no return.
	The gullible liberal minions, even with their lifestyle is going
 down the drain continue to either not care about America, their
 fellow citizens, or the laws set forth in the Constitution.
	It is beyond me how people have allowed themselves to be fooled
 into hating someone so much that they would ruin any future that
 they had and leave a broken, weak, subservient nation for their own
 families to endure.
	God has a plan, but I pray that it does not require this disaster
 to complete its completion.

	Supreme Court Targets the Real Enemy
  By Jeffrey A. Tucker July 1, 2022 Updated: July 1, 2022

	The flurry of rulings from the Supreme Court has everyone’s head
  spinning. The most significant among them, even if it doesn’t capture
  all the headlines, is West Virginia vs EPA. The majority opinion is
  impressive but the part I found truly wonderful is the concurring
  opinion by Neil Gorsuch. This is where we see things headed, toward a
  major and much-welcome curbing of the power of the administrative
  state.

	Just to review what this thing is, it is the unelected bureaucracy
  that rules the country without oversight from voters or legislatures.
  For well over 100 years, most courts have given it a pass, just as-
  suming that the “experts” in the bureaucracies are handling things
  just fine, faithfully interpreting legislation, and merely creating
  rules for easy compliance.

	Generations have gone by as this 4th branch of government has grown
  in size, scope, and strength. For the most part, its baneful imposi-
  tions have been felt by one business or one industry at a time. You
  have heard the stories. The car dealer complains of how the Department
  of Labor is making him crazy. The machine-parts manufacturer is going
  bonkers about letters from the Occupational Safety and Health Admini-
  stration. The energy company can never satisfy the Environmental Pro-
  tection Agency.

	They are stories and we find them unfortunate but we’ve generally
  avoided thinking of these as systematic, all pervasive, and truly dan-
  gerous to the idea of freedom itself. However, there are some 432 of
  these agencies. The authors of the Declaration of Independence noted
  their existence back in the day when they accused the English king of
  having “erected a Multitude of new Offices, and sent hither Swarms of
  Officers to harass our People and eat out their Substance.” They
  fought a revolution to end the tyranny but now we have a home-grown
  form, starting in 1883 with the Pendleton Act and continuing through-
  out the 20th century as each new administration creates its own
  bureaucracy.

	The thing has taken on a power of its own. Strangely, the topic
  hardly comes up at all during elections, and this is for a reason.
  Politicians running for office like to advertise their power to make
  change. They might even believe it. In reality, elected officials
  have very little influence over the conduct of public life relative
  to the administrative state. As Trump found it, not even the presi-
  dent is a match for the deep state.

	Here is what has happened since March 2020: the beast showed its
  face. Seemingly out of nowhere, these strange agencies and people for
  whom we never voted were ruling our lives. They restricted travel,
  forced us to cover our faces, closed our churches and schools, and
  forbid our businesses from operating unless they were big enough to
  afford a powerful lobbying arm in Washington. The whole scene was ap-
  palling. It caused many people—including some earnest judges—to take
  notice.

	Once you see the problem, you cannot unsee it.

	Consider the problem with inflation alone: it is largely the re-
  sponsibility of the Federal Reserve, which is among the most terrif
  ing of the deep-state agencies. This thing was founded in 1913 with
  the promise that it would end “wildcat banking” and contain the ex-
  pansion of money and credit so that we would have a more stable eco-
  nomic environment to encourage growth.

	Even now, people believe that the Fed is going to somehow fix
  recessions and inflations, even though a deeper analysis reveals that
  the Fed itself is the cause of both. The Fed cannot be both the pro-
  blem and the solution, surely. This is becoming as obvious as the
  fact that the CDC cannot make a textbook pathogen go away with power
  and potions.

	Let’s take a quick look at the supposed 2 percent inflation target
  of the Federal Reserve. It might seem to you that they have long ago
  blown past this such that it is entirely cosmetic. But the Fed has a
  little trick up its sleeve. It says it doesn’t follow conventional
  inflation indexes like the Consumer or Producer Price Index. It is
  fancier than that. It follows instead the index of Personal Consump-
  Expenditures. And sure enough when we look at the PCE, we find
  tion that the Fed is pretty good at its job!

	All that changed recently when the PCE itself blew up. Now the Fed
  has been revealed to be utterly incompetent, in a way that is not
  different from the CDC, NIH, DOL, DOE, DOT, HHS, DHS, FTC, SEC, and
  all the rest of these glorified 3-letter agencies employing nearly 3
  million people who cannot be fired or controlled. The unique feature
  of our times is that the expert class in government has been unmask-
  ed as fakes at best and unrelenting menaces as worst.

	Here is where the Fed’s preferred measure of inflation stands
  today:

	So much for competence at the Fed! And yet, how exactly is this
  institution supposed to be controlled? We don’t vote for them. The
  Fed board is appointed by the president with Senate approval but this
  control is mostly mythical. The fancy economists run circles around
  the political actors with big words and fancy finance, so what can
  they do but approve?

	The political class too often acts like absentee owners of a
  far-off land: they have little choice but to trust the hired landlords
  to do a good job. That’s the administrative machinery that has become
  the real power, not only implementing the policies but making and en-
  forcing the rules too.

	With COVID, this whole scam was revealed to absolutely everyone—
  not just to small businesses but to every single individual and family
  in the United States. The whole bureaucracy announced to us what they
  have always believed but rarely said: your life is not your own. Your
  job is to comply. And so this raises the fascinating question of what
  precisely are we going for here and what kind of society and govern-
  ment do we want? Surely this should be up to the people!

	The Supreme Court in its most recent decision was dealing with a
  technical aspect of how regulations applied to a coal plant, but the
  implications of the decision are much larger. The EPA was determining
  policy, even making it, riffing wildly on legislation with the pre-
  sumption that courts will always and everywhere defer to the agency
  over industry and even over the words of the legislation. The court
  said no: it was the EPA that had been operating illegally all along.

	This decision is so startling because it shows a Supreme Court
  doing what it is supposed to do, serving as a legal check on the power
  ambitions of government itself. That’s what the framers intended. We
  have just begun, however. The Court needs to attack the whole machi-
  nery of the deep state at its very root, going after “Chevron defer-
  ence(1984), the Public Health Services Act (1944), the Federal Reserve
  Act(1913), and stretching all the way back to the Pendleton Act(1883)
  A nation ruled by a faceless deep state is not a representative demo-
  cracy and it is not consistent with the U.S. Constitution.

	When you consider the implications of this one decision, they are
  awesome. It doesn’t just apply to the EPA and its elaborate plans for
  changing the global climate through command and control. It also app-
  lies to every other agency, including the CDC and even the Federal
  Reserve itself. They all should be accountable to the people through
  their elected representatives. If we cannot get back to that system,
  we will lose everything.

	We have to pray that the SCOTUS and God hold strong until we the
  people can regain control through faith and morals.

      Inflation Hits 9.1 Percent in June, New 40-Year High
  By Andrew Moran July 13, 2022 Updated: July 13, 2022
	
	 The U.S. annual inflation rate climbed to 9.1 percent in June,
  reaching its highest level since November 1981 and topping the market
  estimate of 8.8 percent and May’s annual rate of 8.6 percent.
	According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the consumer
  price index (CPI) rose by 1.3 percent month-over-month. The monthly
  inflation also was higher than economists’ expectations of 1.1 per-
  cent.
	While the core inflation rate, which removes the volatile food and
  energy sectors, eased to 5.9 percent, that was higher than the fore-
  cast of 5.7 percent. On a monthly basis, core inflation rose at a
  higher than-expected pace of 0.7 percent.
	Food prices soared by 10.4 percent, while the energy index advanced
  by 41.6 percent.
 	Nearly every food item, except uncooked beef steak, was more ex-
  pensive last month. Pork surged by 9 percent, chicken soared by 18.6
  percent, and ham increased by 9.6 percent. Eggs spiked by 33.1 per-
  cent, milk rose by 16.4 percent, fruits and vegetables jumped by 8.1
  percent, and coffee swelled by 15.8 percent.
	On the energy front, fuel oil increased by 98.5 percent. Gasoline
  surged by 59.9 percent, electricity costs picked up by 13.7 percent,
  and propane and kerosene jumped by 26.1 percent.
	New vehicles surged by 11.4 percent, used cars and trucks jumped
  by 7.1 percent, apparel increased by 5.2 percent, and shelter climbed
  by 5.6 percent.
	Shelter costs, which make up about one-third of the CPI, increased
  by 0.6 percent in June from May. This was mainly driven by a 0.8 per-
  cent rise in rent of primary residence, the greatest rent increase
  since 1986.
	“Today’s shockingly high consumer price inflation number does not
  bode well for our country’s economic outlook,” Desmond Lachman, econ-
  omist and senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, told
  The Epoch Times in an email.
	It makes it likely that the Fed will keep raising interest rates
  and decreasing its “bloated balance sheet” aggressively, he said.
	“The Fed will likely do so despite the growing signs of economic
  and financial market weakness both at home and abroad,” Lachman said.
  “That has to raise the risk of a hard economic landing before yearend
  and further turmoil in the equity and bond markets.”
	The S&P 500 ended 0.4 percent lower, its fourth consecutive drop,
  after tumbling as much as 1.6 percent earlier. The Dow Jones Indus-
  trial Average fell 0.7 percent, while the Nasdaq Composite ended
  down 0.2 percent, erasing nearly all of an early 2.1 percent loss.
	The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), which measures the greenback against
  a basket of currencies, spiked with the news before ending the day
  lower by 0.13 percent to 108.02. The index has been on a tear in 2022,
  rallying about 13 percent year-to-date.
	A fake CPI report circulated online on July 12 and attempted to
  emulate the formatting of the May inflation data, using different
  dates and figures. It claimed that the annual inflation rate was 10.2
  percent in June. Despite being a forgery, it caught the attention of
  investors sending stocks slightly lower in the afternoon session on
  Wall Street.
	The White House braced the American people on July 12 for an ele-
  vated headline reading, noting in a memo that the June CPI report was
  out of date since it didn’t contain the dramatic decline in food and
  energy prices. U.S. officials are ostensibly looking ahead to the
  July inflation numbers to show that their efforts are succeeding.

	Peak Inflation?
	Over the past month, crude oil and gasoline prices have fallen by
  notable levels amid growing recession fears and weaker demand out-
  looks.
	West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude has slumped by about 17 per-
  cent to below $100 per barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange
  since the middle of July. The national average for a gallon of gaso-
  line tumbled by roughly 7 percent to about $4.65, according to AAA.
	Agricultural commodities have also plummeted, with corn, wheat,
  and soybeans down by approximately 20 percent in the past month.
	“The softening food, energy, and commodity prices, the improved
  supply chains, the easing shipping costs, and lower purchasing mana-
  ger indices hint that U.S. inflation may have hit a peak last month,
  of will hit one soon,” Ipek Ozkardeskaya, a senior analyst at Swiss-
  quote Bank, wrote in a research note.
	Even if inflation has peaked, market experts believe prices for
  many goods and services in the marketplace will remain elevated, such
  as rent and airline fares. Core CPI could moderate, too, because of
  weaker used car prices.
	The headline inflation reading prompted the interest-rate futures
  market to revise its expectations that the Federal Reserve will raise
  rates by 100 basis points at this month’s Federal Open Market Com-
  mittee (FOMC) policy meeting. Most of the market had anticipated a
  three-quarter-point increase at the upcoming rate-setting committee
  meeting, with small odds of a full point hike, according to the CME
  FedWatch Tool.
	Price stability has become the central bank’s primary objective,
  even if it triggers a recession and extends the selloff in the finan-
  cial markets. Fed Chair Jerome Powell has stated that it’s possible
  to navigate a soft landing, but noted that it isn’t a guarantee.
	Bryce Doty, senior vice president and senior portfolio manager at
  Sit Investment Associates, says the Fed’s actions will exacerbate pro-
  blems in the economy.
	“The Fed’s clear mistake of destroying demand by aggressively
  raising rates instead of supporting businesses desperately in need of
  workers will further extend shortages,” he wrote in a July12 research
  note. “Just think of the incredible growth we would have if another 2
  to 4 million workers re-entered the workforce. Supply shortages would
  dry up and inflation pressures would dissipate. Instead, the Fed’s
  actions will slow growth and inflation will persist longer than it
  should.”
	However, Deutsche Bank analysts believe that the U.S. central bank
  needs to maintain its hawkish attitude as inflation continues to show
  that it’s “a demand-driven phenomenon.” In the past couple of months,
  consumer demand has eased. Personal spending rose by just 0.2 percent
  in May, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. Retail sales
  unexpectedly fell by 0.3 percent in May, the Census Bureau reported.
	At the same time, with near-term recession fears growing, the
  financial institution expects the peak fed funds rate will be 4.1
  percent, but economic downturn concerns “could well short-circuit
  the Fed’s hiking cycle before it reaches our current terminal rate
  expectations.”
	Following the June FOMC meeting, the Fed updated its dot-plot from
  March, projecting that the benchmark rate would hit 3.4 percent this
  year, 3.8 percent in 2023, and drop back to 3.4 percent in 2024 (pdf).
	“My expectation is that inflation will soon peak,” Lachman said.
  “It will do so as a result of the U.S. and world economy moving into
  a recession, as well as a result of the slump presently underway in
  international commodity prices in general and oil prices in partic-
  ular.”
	Next on the inflation front, the BLS will release the June producer
  price index on July 14. Economists forecast that it will come in at
  10.7 percent year-over-year, down from 10.8 percent in May.

    A Cabinency of Dunces
    Victor Davis Hanson May 26, 2022

	 As the nation sinks inexplicably into self-created crisis after
  crisis, debate rages whether President Joe Biden is incompetent,
  mean-spirited, or an ideologue who feels the country’s mess is his
  success.
	A second national discussion revolves around who actually is
  overseeing the current national catastrophe, given Biden’s frequent
  bewilderment and cognitive challenges.
	But one area of agreement is the sheer craziness of Biden’s
  Cabinet appointments, who have translated his incoherent ideology
  into catastrophic governance.
      Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas has essenti-
  ally nullified federal immigration law. More than 2 million foreign
  nationals have illegally crossed the southern border without audit
  and without COVID-19 vaccinations and tests during a pandemic.		
	Mayorkas either cannot or will not follow federal law.	
	But he did create a new Disinformation Governance Board. To head
  his new Orwellian Ministry of Truth, he appointed Nina Jankowicz—an
  arch disinformationist who helped peddle the Russian collusion, Steele
  dossier, and Alfa Bank hoaxes.	
	While Jankowicz’s adolescent videos and past tweets finally forced
  her resignation, Mayorkas promises his board will carry on.
	In the days before the recent Virginia election, grassroots parent
  groups challenged critical race theory taught in the schools.
	In reaction and under prompts from teachers unions, Attorney Ge-
  neral Merrick Garland directed both the FBI and the Justice Department
  to establish a special task force apparently to “investigate threats”
  from parents against school board members.
	The FBI recently has been knee-deep in political controversies. It
  illegally doctored a FISA application to entrap an American citizen.
  Its former directors, under oath before Congress, either claimed
  faulty memory or admitted lying to federal investigators.
	The last thing a scandal-plagued FBI needed was to go undercover
  at school board meetings to investigate parents worried over their
  children’s education.
	We are in a fuel price spiral that is destroying the middle class.
	Yet when Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm was asked about plans
  to lower gas prices, she laughed off the idea as “hilarious.”
	Later, Granholm preposterously claimed, “It is not the administra-
  tion policies that have affected supply and demand.”
	Apparently haranguing those who finance fossil-fuel production,
  canceling the Keystone pipeline, suspending new federal oil and gas
  leases, and stopping production in the Arctic National Wildlife Re-
  fuge all had nothing to do with high fuel prices.
	Currently, supply chain disruptions are paralyzing the U.S.
  economy.
	The huge Port of Los Angeles has been a mess for more than a year.
  Since last fall, dozens of cargo ships have been backed up to the
  horizon. Thousands of trucks are bottlenecked at the port.
	During the mess, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg was not
  at work. Instead, at the height of the crisis, he took a two-month
  paternity leave to help out his husband and two newborn babies.
	Such paternal concern is a noble thing. But Buttigieg is supposed
  to ensure that life-or-death supplies reach millions of strapped
  Americans.
	This winter, trains entering and leaving Los Angeles were routine-
  ly looted in the Old West style of train robbing—without much of a
  response from Buttigieg’s transportation bureau.
	In Senate testimony, Secretary of the Interior Secretary Deb
  Haaland refused to explain why her department is slow walking federal
  oil and gas leases at a time when Americans are paying between $5 and
  $6 a gallon for gas.
	Haaland was unable to provide simple answers about when new leases
  will result in more supplies of oil and gas. Her panicked aides slid
  talking points to her, given that in deer-in-the-headlights fashion,
  she seemed incapable of providing senators with basic information
  about U.S. energy production on federal lands.
	The United States is sending many billions of dollars' worth of
  sophisticated weapons to Ukraine to combat Russian aggression. We
  rightly claim it is not a proxy war against Russia, but instead an
  effort to help stop a brutal Russian invasion.
	Why then did Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin tell the world the
  very opposite in a fashion that could only convince Russians that
  our real aim in Ukraine is to destroy Russia as a superpower?
	As Austin put it publicly, “We want to see Russia weakened to the
  degree that it can’t do the kinds of things that it has done in
  invading Ukraine.”
	Even if that description of the agenda is true, why broadcast it,
  given Russia has more than 6,000 nuclear weapons and its president,
  Vladimir Putin, is increasingly erratic and paranoid?
	The common denominator to these Biden appointees is ideological
  rigidity, nonchalance, and sheer incompetence.
	They seem indifferent to the current border, inflation, energy,
  and crime disasters. When confronted, they're unable to answer simple
  questions from Congress, or they mock anyone asking for answers on
  behalf of the strapped American people.
	We don’t know why or how such an unimpressive cadre ended up run-
  ning the government, only that they are here and the American people
  are suffering from their presence.
  ****Victor Davis Hanson

	Sadly this group of misfits seems to think that they are doing 
  something right regardless of the disaster they are creating.
	Add to that a Vice President that has no clue of her duties and
  the ones she has been given, she shirks them off. As the Border Czar
  she has yet to even go there. SHe just cackles.
	If the good Lord is graceful to us we will remove a large number
  of these people along with many Representatives and Senators in the
  upcoming midterms and the sane and ethical portion of DC can begin
  to rescue the US from more damage.

    Democratic Hypocrisy

    The Pattern of Democratic Hypocrisy

    Fences are a good place to start.
    Democrats were all for a wall/fences on the southern border
until Trump said he would build it. Then the Democrats decided
that there was no way they would allow that even when the funds 
were available.
    Obama closed down the tours of the White House because of 
budget cuts in 2013 that were cramping his generous wasting our
tax dollars. The tours cost $74k per week. 
    He didn't let it cramp his style of renting a $21M house, the
Blue Heron Farm. It was closed 4 different time since then.
    When the Biden coup took over, he and Pelosi stopped the tours. 
He put out a letter stating that it would resume the tours in April
but I don't think it has.
    Keep in mind that Republicans were not behind any efforts
against completing the construction.
    This has been going on for decades but let's just go forward.
    Although they allowed the mobs of liberal protesters roam the
halls of the Capitol during Committees ruthless grilling of Trump's
Supreme Court nominees. Then Democrats again permitted during the 
two illegal attempts to impeach Trump, both of which could not find
any law that he might even come close to violating. Both were also
based upon lies fabricated by the left in an effort to keep him from
fulfilling his promises to the American people.
    More and more proof is being uncovered about the 2020 election
in more races than just the coup against Trump and millions of loyal
conservatives. Not to mention that they chose to focus their illegal
efforts in the same states that Trump had flipped in 2016.
    They even corrupted the laws written by those state legislatures
in order to literally, break the law to steal the Electoral votes
at the last minute before and while votes were being counted by, as
we now know, people who were witnessing breaking those laws but, of
course, we all know that Obama had corrupted the Justice Dept. that
enabled them to pretend it never happened. 
    Now we know much of the truth and karma is coming.
So, Jan 6 was the last day for Trump's final legal CHALLENGE to
the Electoral count.
    Democrats had to fabricate something to disrupt this challenge
about 1 pm when the count was to begin.
    Trump had planned a rally at the White House so that some of his
65 million conservatives could peacefully and patriotically walk to
the Capitol to have their voices heard.
    This was actually a big mistake on his part because he provided
cover for the left and Pelosi to disrupt the proceedings and they
took full advantage of it.
    So back to Pelosi having barricades erected designed to have 
their hired thugs push their way into the Capitol, but they knew that
Trump followers were never violent or armed, so her people went out
and invited people to come in one set of doors while the hired thugs
destructively forced their way in a different doorway.
    Now back to the fence.
    Pelosi used that excuse to construct an 8' fence around several
blocks after she refused Trump's offer to bring in 10K National
Guard soldiers. After Jan 6th, Pelosi brought several thousand
NG members and posted them around the Capitol fence for months.
    I will remind you that Republicans have never been violent or
destructive unless, as usual, provoked by liberals.
    Amid the riots around the blue cities after they tried to burn
down the Presidents Church near the White House, Pelosi had another
8' fence constructed in May 2021.
    In July 2021 Fences went up after Capitol riots got too close to
where she worked. I watched her fabricate unrest for the optics 
because it was obvious that since she had no need for fences after
Biden was installed. After all she turned them on and off to make it
appear as if the riots were not of her making.
    Biden finally opened the public tours of the White House finally
in April 2022.
    Since then, the Democrats have put together a troupe performance
not even worthy of turning on the stage light under the guidance of
a network producer that cut and pasted and scripted a made for late
night comedy rendition of their fabricated version of the events of
Jan 6th without any Republican committee members, any witnesses, any
verifiable evidence and laced with the most boring reading amateur
actors reading every word spoken.
    They provided no explanation as to who the people were who tried
to violently breach the Capitol in spite of 14K hours of videos they
refused to share with the public. They also arrested some 800 people
who for an undisclosed reason were ALL conservative.
    There was NO cross examination of any of the so-called witnesses
even though they mostly provided hearsay testimony.
    The evil and lack of ethics, morals, patriotism, and concern for
their fellow human beings tells me that the Democrats are close
minded, hate-filled and anti-Christian at a level never before seen
in this country. 
    I fear the mid-term election could mark the end of the American
Dream and our Constitutional freedoms.
    Faith and God's grace will guide Christians through this.

Conservatively,
John
