The Here and Now and America's Future

How many times in this election cycle have you had fellow people of faith, acquaintances, associates, neighbors... even strangers say to you, “I don’t like either Donald Trump or Kamala Harris” or words to that affect? Additionally, these same people claim, they are not planning to vote for either one of them for President on election day. If past election data and current polling stats suggests that millions of people of faith presently are planning on not voting for either Harris or Trump. In making this decision, such voters are exercising what some have identified as the “Pontius Pilate Option” approach to moral decision-making. When confronted with angry mobs demanding the crucifixion of Jesus, did not the Roman governor attempt to absolve himself from moral culpability for the crucifixion by ritually washing his hands with water?

Atlas, in a fallen and sinful world where we are frequently, regrettably, lamentably... are not faced with the comfort of an option abutted by good and evil, but instead an option between the greater evil and the lesser evil. In the words of Edmund Burke, “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do nothing.”

I sympathize with my fellow Christians, patriots and citizens who find themselves adverse or ill-disposed towards both candidates. I find flaws in both DJT and Kamala Harris. But I am not voting for a family member, an associate, or a spiritual advisor. I am voting for a president to lead our Constitutional Republic for the next four years and a Commander-in-Chief of our Uniformed Armed Services in a perilous, unstable, and volatile world, as should be the case of every American voter.

For those who find both candidates wanting. Allow me to provide you with some information that may oblige the readers to vote one way or the other. Based on his first term as president, there is no doubt Trump he is more pro-life, pro-smaller government, and he will do far more to grow the economy, especially among lower-income workers. On the economy, we have the luxury of a clear comparison between DJT’s record in office and Kamala Harris’s record as VP in the Biden-Harris Administration. In addition to the life issue Kamala Harris is the most radical and unwaveringly pro-abortion candidate to ever head a presidential ticket. Kamala Harris is obstinately in favor of the transgender agenda and will certainly curtail parental rights to protect their children from transgender propaganda, indoctrination, and potential surgery against their parents’ will.

What Sets the Last 3 Democrat Presidential Nominees Apart

 Just thinking... When examining the last three Democrat presidential nominees I have noticed some key contrasts which differentiate or set them apart from one another. Admittedly Obama had an abundance of charisma, Biden not so much. But the real Kamala Harris is vacuous, completely inarticulate, and plainly lacks any charismatic depth. But what she lacks in charisma, she makes up for in her masterful ability to stretch the truth or evade it all together. Oh, and she is not African American either, but we need not hash over that at risk of being labeled a racist or anti-feminist, misogynist, sexist, chauvinist, bigot, misandrist, misanthrope, cynic, naysayer... However, the blank-screen strategy is critical for Harris to maintain her image as the "candidate of change." In plain English, Harris’s entire campaign hinges on Barrack Obama’s successful 2008 strategy to obscure who he really was. Note, this is what some on the right dubbed Obama’s “Audacity of Deception” Line of attack. And it worked well for him, not so much for the American people.

Controlling Information is To Control the People

Just thinking... Kamala Harris, Walz, their cohorts and many within MSM is spouting readily, volubly, and at length claims that “misinformation” about the election is “running rampant” on Facebook. Misinformation, disinformation, deepfakes and other similarly constructed terms treat speech as a dangerous thing. Misinformation “spreads” like a virus, it “runs rampant” until it’s censored. Its existence threatens the governing consensus through which the regime rules the people. The obsession with stamping out “misinformation” has so overridden the liberal DNA of free speech that the ACLU now fights ‘misinformation’ rather than upholding free speech and “PEN America” a nonprofit that defends free expression urges that it is “important to correct misleading or false information”. It’s important because by controlling information, their political allies and agenda control the people. Former Climate Czar, John Kerry has a point. It’s hard to govern when everyone is free to speak their mind. That’s why America was a bold experiment in freedom whose purpose was to be hard to govern. Americans being hard to govern is not, as Obama, Kerry and Harris think, a bug, but a feature.

The Epitome of Absurdity or Lunacy

Tens of thousands of illegal immigrants with sex-related offenses and murder convictions are loose on the streets, according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) data provided to lawmakers this week. The data, as of "July 2024", is broken down by those in detention, and those who are not in detention, aka, the non-detained docket.  The non-detained docket includes illegal immigrants who have final orders of removal or are going through removal proceedings but are not detained in ICE custody. There are currently more than 7 million people on that docket.

 

The data says that, among those not in detention, there are “425,431” convicted criminals and “222,141” with "pending criminal charges." Those include “62,231” convicted of assault, “14,30”1 convicted of burglary, “56,533” with drug convictions and “13,099” convicted of homicide. An additional “2,521” have kidnapping convictions and “15,811” have sexual assault convictions. There are an additional “1,845” with pending homicide charges, “42,915” with assault charges, “3,266” with burglary charges and “4,250” with assault charges.

Some people, though I am, not one of them may be shocked to learn that the Biden-Harris dynamic duo has participated somewhat enthusiastically in releasing tens of thousands of criminal illegal aliens, some of which are probably terrorists, cartel members, sex traffickers... into our communities, but their own numbers conclusively prove this to be the case. Does this not defy common sense? Under President Biden and his ‘border czar,’ VP Harris, and DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, have directed law enforcement to mass-release illegal aliens whom they know have criminal convictions or are facing charges for serious crimes. Moreover, these menacing, dangerous, and destructive deviants are making their way into every town, community and municipality and every state in America. How many more Americans need to ‘Buy the Farm’ or be victimized at the hands of an illegal alien, a foreign state sponsored terrorist and or geopolitical adversary before this administration is forced to abide by the laws they swore to uphold? Is this not the epitome of absurdity or lunacy? No civilized, properly governed and well-functioning society should tolerate what is taking place at our borders. If I am not mistaken, Border Czar Kamala has had nearly 4 years to protect America and failed. Has she not allowed tens of thousands of murderers and rapists to roam free? Does Kamala's actions or lack thereof paint a picture of one who puts criminals first and the safety and security of you and your family last. 

For more or less than a half-century, the criminal has been portrayed as a victim. Social scientists, criminologists, and mental health professionals and left leaning Democrats, to include Harris continue to characterize criminals as shaped by forces beyond their control. “Criminogenic” environments have long been cited as causal. The assertion is that turning to crime is understandable, even a normal response, if one grows up in a crime-infested neighborhood. Crime has also been attributed to poverty, the thinking being that people who are denied opportunity will seize what they need. And seize, the band of border hoards will, unless the swamp politicians and bureaucrats put a stop to this border imbecility.

The Worst Illiterate is The Politico Illiterate

Just thinking... The worst illiterate is the politico illiterate running for an office which she or he is unqualified to assume. The 2024 dynamic Democrat duo hear nothing, see nothing, obfuscate the truth by being evasive, unclear, or dubious in the telling of the facts. They take little to no interest in the consequences of their political decisions. He or she doesn't seem to know that the cost of living, the price of eggs, of flour, of rent, gasoline, medicines... all depend on political decisions. They even pride themselves on political ignorance.  One sticks out her chest, laughs like a hyena and says she dislikes MAGA conservatives. She, the know-nothing and her dolt running mate doesn't know, that from their political non-participation or political ignorance comes the prostitute, the aberrant illegal immigrant, sex exploitation of women and children, the abandoned youngster, the aborted child, the drug dealer, the thief and, worst of all, corrupt officials, the lackeys of exploitative multinational corporations, Big Tech, MSM... We have moved from an age in which government leaders sought to do what was best for the people to one in which the political leadership is convinced it knows what is best for the ‘People’ whether they like it or not. Lest we forget, the power to lead is the power to lead, and the power to mislead is the power to destroy.

A Solemn Day in Commemoration

On this solemn day in commemoration of those who perished on the Islamic 9/11 attack. Let us pray for a spiritual and moral awakening that would make America “a tree planted by water” that “does not fear when heat comes.” And let us remember: Unless the “Lord holds the house. Those who build it labor in vain.” Who is building your “house” today? Moreover, who do we trust to ensure another 9/11 type attack by antagonists with malicious intent, be they foreign terrorists now within our contiguous border or enemies outside our national boundaries does not happen again. For those who fail to understand this warning, the bloody consequences will be on your hands. Are not Republics created by virtue, public spirit, and intelligence of the citizenry? They fall when the wise are displaced from the public ruling body, because they dare to be honest and the profligate are rewarded, because they flatter the people, to betray them. However, the imminent domestic threat to our Constitution now is very deceptive, especially because the mainstream media and social media platforms where most people get their information are providing full cover for this political ruse. This domestic enemy’s threat to Liberty is being led by those who have forsaken their sacred oaths to support and defend our Constitution, in deference to their socialist political agenda. And that agenda is wholly antithetical to our Constitution and Liberty. The ramifications of the upcoming Presidential election will likely determine America’s destiny.

Just Thinking... The Questionable Ideologies of The Democrats New Dynamic Duo

Just thinking... My view of President Joe Biden’s leadership and that of Vice President Kamala Harris and her heir apparent VP, Tim Walz is one of trepidation, disappointment, godlessness, sorrow, Abbey Gate... Abbey Gate framing it as a divine judgment and a reflection of societal moral and leadership decline. The mentioned dynamic politico duo is revealing while America as a nation is reaping the consequences of its moral choices. Biden’s administration’s vocal support for questionable ideologies is emblematic of a society straying from biblical teachings. History tells the tale, when a society turns to sexual depravity, and a reprobate mind, God gives them up. If you follow that pattern, what you get is Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and the likes of Tim Walz who are part and parcel the epitome of all those things just stated. The good news, societal redemption is possible, but only by returning to scriptural principles and genuine Christian conversion.
