This doodle says a lot.  Most of the liberals I know seem unaware that the Democrat party has been taken over by the “woke” progressive left.  Elon Musk gets it.

Unintended consequences or deliberate destruction?

 

At American Thinker, Patricia McCarthy published an excellent summary of the damage inflicted on America to date by the Biden administration.  Here’s some of it:

. . . The damage this progressive cult has done has crippled America in nearly every way possible.  As Steve Feinstein has written, "[t]hese Democrat policies have tangibly and dramatically degraded the quality of life in America[.]"

Inheriting a nation that was energy independent under Trump, Biden put an end to that on day one.  To say his botched withdrawal from Afghanistan was catastrophic is a gross understatement.  He left billions of dollars of state-of-the-art military equipment there and effectively handed Bagram AFB to the Chinese.  Thirteen young Americans were killed needlessly, and thousands of Americans were left stranded to the Taliban.

We do not know as yet, but Biden's folly with Putin and Ukraine could lead to nuclear war.  Biden's devastatingly poor judgment has knocked the dollar off its hundred-year run as the global currency while Putin's ruble has rebounded.  None of the above would have happened or would be happening if Trump were still in office — and everyone knows this.  In short, this administration is the most destructive in American history by any measure.  Biden's Cabinet is the most incompetent in history.  The nation may never recover and the criminal cabal that put him in office is responsible.

Thanks to investigative journalists Peter Schweizer and Miranda Devine, we know that Biden and his son Hunter are congenitally corrupt and virtually owned by the Communist Party of China.  They also used Ukraine as a financial playground, as did the Clintons.  Under the circumstances, it is not outside the realm of possibility that COVID was part of a plan to see Trump ousted from office, to make mail-in ballots seem necessary and to destroy the Trump economy in one fell swoop.  We know that Fauci and his evil pals obsessed with making viruses more dangerous have long-term ties to China, as does Biden, and as do numerous other NeverTrumps in Congress.

. . .

When Obama came to office, he liked to think he was elected to manage our decline.  It was Obama who weaponized the FBI, the CIA and the DOJ.  Obama hated America; he set back race relations at least fifty years.  With the advent of Black Lives Matter, the Democrat party lurched farther to the left; they've now gone so far left that they are aligned with the CCP.  It is as though they have adopted Orwell's dystopian novel 1984 as a handbook for the running of the United States.  Can all this damage done be chalked up to stupidity and incompetence, or is it by design?  . . .

Mo Brooks spills the beans

 

Bascott O’Connor reports on the corrupt culture in DC.  From the Blue State Conservative website a day or two ago:

Congressman Caught On Tape
Explaining How “Special Interest Groups
Run Washington”

In March, at a campaign fundraiser, Alabama Republican Congressman Mo Brooks was filmed and confirmed what many voters have suspected for years—money runs congress. Brooks is running for the Republican nomination for the senate seat being vacated by retiring Richard Shelby. The Alabama Senate primary is May 24 and polling has Brooks in third.

Here are the most substantial Mo Brooks quotes from the video.

• “Special interest groups run Washington.”
• “In the House of Representatives (I’ll use that as an example because that’s where I work), if you want to be a chairman of a major committee, you have to purchase it, and the purchase price for a major committee (say, like Ways and Means) minimum bid is a million dollars.”
• “We have committees broken down by A group, B group, and C group. C are the cheapest, B are middling, A is the most expensive. It’s the most expensive because those are the committees that special interest groups care the most about.”
• “So, where does a congressman come up with a million dollars to be chairman of one of these A committees? You can’t get it from Joe and Jane Citizen because Joe and Jane Citizen back home, they’re not going to be contributing that kind of money. They don’t have it—they need that money for their own families.”
• “And, so, you have to get it from the special interest groups, and with the special interest groups, there is a quid pro quo. If you don’t do what they tell you to do, they won’t give you the money that finances your chairmanship.”

Is JD Vance a Big Tech sleeper cell?

J D Vance is running for Ron Portman's Senate seat and he was just endorsed by Donald Trump.  Cleveland Tea Party does not usually post on gun issues, as most 2nd amendment issues fall outside Tea Party core values. But Ohio Gun Owners (OGO) has posted a lengthy and evidently carefully researched "deep dive" into JD Vance's background -- his associations, affiliations, and relationships.  Click here for the link to the full report.  Here's a sampling from the OGO website:

This is an Ohio Gun Owners RED ALERT.

We hope you will read this post in its entirety and share this with everyone you know before the May 3rd Republican Primary Election.

Everything you and I love about our country is being attacked and, in many cases, defeated.

From taking God out of schools and indoctrinating our kids, to big tech censoring and manipulating the population, to the Radical Left grooming our kids, to shutdowns and mandates, to the destruction of our economy, to the destruction of the family and to the sustained and constant attempts to destroy the right to own firearms, the Left’s culture war to end America is raging.

That means we must FIGHT LIKE HELL if you and I are going to be able to save it.

And the choices we make in the May 3rd Republican primary play a pivotal role in whether or not we are going to be able to win.

The Survey

OGO has issued our 2022 Ohio Gun Owners Candidate Questionnaire to every candidate running to replace Rob Portman in the US Senate.

We have asked each candidate a series of questions on the issues they will likely face if they get elected because their answers give an indication of how they will vote, especially if they have no record that we can objectively investigate.

Up to the moment of this writing, we have received 100% pro-gun surveys from Josh Mandel, Mike Gibbons, Mark Pukita and J.D. Vance.

The Survey’s Weakness

As a non-profit issue advocacy organization, Ohio Gun Owners does not endorse candidates.

We highlight differences between candidates, of course, and we viciously expose the records of anti-gun legislators or candidates whenever and wherever we are able so that gun owners can better decide who they want to represent them in office.

But as Ohio Gun Owners grows larger in size, scope and political power, there is one distinct weakness that we have identified in our survey program:

There is the definite potential for a candidate to deliberately fill out the survey without ever intending to keep their promise. And the reason why is simply because they are making the calculated decision to do whatever is necessary to get elected, knowing it is far harder for an incumbent to be unseated.

That’s why Ohio Gun Owners investigates candidates who are running with no voting record, because we want to see if their past reconciles with what they promise to be in the future.

It is not unfair to say that politicians in the past have said things that they don’t mean just to get elected.

That’s why we investigated J.D. Vance at a deeper level, even though he scored 100% pro-gun on his OGO candidate survey.

Vance: Deep Dive

Someone once said, “Show me who your friends are, and I’ll tell you who you are.”

J.D. Vance’s friends, who he has alliances with, who is funding his campaign and what we uncovered during our investigation is alarming on a scale unlike anything we’ve ever seen in electoral politics.

Quite frankly, the alliances Vance has formed, the business partners Vance has and even some of the businesses Vance has created or invested in are major red flags for anyone who loves America or who may be angry at the levels of freedom that are being stripped away by lawless politicians and their partners in Big Tech.

. . .

Peter Thiel

Get used to the name Peter Thiel – it is a recurring theme throughout this investigation.

Thiel’s proximity to and involvement with J.D. Vance was the initial reason we red-flagged and prioritized this investigation here at Ohio Gun Owners.

So who is Thiel, other than the guy Vance worked/works with in California? And why does he matter?

Well, for starters, Thiel is the #1 financier of JD Vance’s effort to claim one of Ohio’s two US Senate slots.

Peter Thiel is a billionaire Silicon Valley tech investor and executive, deeply in bed with Big Tech.

➜ Thiel co-founded PayPal (which is a full-blown enemy of gun owners).

➜ Thiel sits on the board of Facebook and was Facebook’s first outside investor.

➜ Thiel is the chairman of Palantir, a Department of Defense contractor that specializes in big data analytics. Palantir designed the software behind the enforcement of the unconstitutional Patriot Act, which was neither American nor patriotic.

➜ Thiel is a partner at the Founders Fund, a Silicon Valley venture capital investment firm that invests in technology and artificial intelligence and is composed of partners that founded, were employed by or invested early in companies like PayPal, Google and other Big Tech companies.

➜ Thiel is an investor in a company called Athena Security, which markets an artificial intelligence video surveillance system that scans people in populated areas for the presence of firearms, alerting government “authorities” in the process.

It goes without saying that Facebook has been an eager participant in the censorship of free speech for the last several years, censoring any voice that dares to counter the narratives spewed by the Biden administration or the Fake News Media.

And nearly every conservative in America has been banned or “Zucked” because Facebook’s Misinformation Police decide they don’t like your patriotism.

BlackRock Connections

Peter Thiel, who is a man, is “married” to another man named Matt Danzeisen.

Currently, Danzeisen is a portfolio manager at his “husband’s” company, Theil Capital Management.

But guess who Theil’s “husband” worked for before he came to Theil Capital?  

BlackRock, Inc.

Earlier today, this blog linked to Dr Joseph Mercola's article -- with BlackRock at the center of The Great Reset.  Not pretty.

Who Will Eventually Own Everything, Including You?

This blog has linked to columns and op-eds by Dr Joseph Mercola — usually on the subjects of COVID and mis-named “vaccines.” This link is to Dr Mercola’s opinion piece at Uncanceled News on The Great Reset, a/k/a New World Order, a/k/a Agenda 21, etc.:

Who Will Eventually Own Everything, Including You?

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

• The vast majority of the world’s assets are owned by just two investment firms — BlackRock and the Vanguard Group. Combined, they have ownership in nearly 90% of all S&P 500 firms, and through their investment holdings they secretly wield monopoly control over all industries
• By now you may be familiar with the World Economic Forum slogan, “By 2030, you will own nothing.” To that end, BlackRock and other investment firms are buying up every single-family home they can find, making cash offers of 20% to 50% above asking price
• Buying a home has been part of the American dream since the founding of this country. It’s been a significant part of financial success, security and freedom. George Washington declared that “Private Property and freedom are inseparable.” Now, lower to middle class Americans are being intentionally positioned to become permanent renters, which means they cannot build equity
• This is wealth redistribution from the low- and middle-class to the upper, and it’s in line with plans for societal reorganization described under banners such as The Great Reset, Build Back Better, Agenda 21 and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development
• These agendas all work together toward the same goal, which is a global monopoly on ownership and wealth, with a clear separation of the haves and have nots; the owners and the owned; the rulers and the ruled; the elite and the serfs
