Dickens: Fortitude and Stick-To-It-ivness!

“The quality that allows someone to continue trying to do something even though it’s difficult or unpleasant.”

Uncle Charles

Another word that comes to mind is tenacity:

* the quality or fact of being very determined; determination.

* the quality or fact of continuing to exist; persistence.

I’m going to pose an unpleasant question to consider: Do we, as citizens of this republic, have the determination to do what’s necessary, to right and repair our foundering ship of state, or will we skirt these weighty and formidable tasks essential to overhaul our constitutional republic when they require our involvement or approval, just like we’ve abandoned every difficult task since 1960.

Will we make sacrifices if they are necessary?

Does anyone remember the rationing of scarce items during WWI and WWII? If not, please refer to the omniscient inter-web for more information. Americans were firmly behind these efforts. Will these requisite repairs to America require our sacrifices? I’m sure they will, but having a savvy businessman running the country, I doubt we’ll face rationing, but I think the needs will be more about the personal commitment to the changes.

Smith: Don’t Tolerate America’s Enemies From Within

The lesser evil is still evil … Indeed, the safest road to Hell is the gradual one – the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts.” ~ C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters

          Wa. Wal, wal – I am about fed UP with all of this!

Where we go after last week’s election is anybody’s guess, but I don’t expect it to be as great as many pundits seem to believe it will be. The damage that’s been done is already massive, and it will take decades to repair, with Trump only having less than four years to attempt it via Big Government solutions that are certain to continue to exacerbate the status quo.

Part of the problem is the people keep screaming for Big Government and whoever’s in charge to “Do something” … anything … as if most of the problems we already have aren’t as a direct result of asinine “government solutions“, and as if Big Government has ever really solved any of America’s problems. And those in power and currently running for office keep promising the moon and a pot of gold and Lucky Charms at the end of the rainbow.

If Kamala had pulled out the “win” or “the steal” … well hell … don’t make me cuss – it would have been all over and the drawing and quartering of America will be served up on a platter to Her enemies, both foreign and domestic.

In my humble opinion, had Kamala won the election – even legitimately – it would have been time to throw sand in the gears of government at every level and start engaging in a campaign of guerrilla warfare the likes of which was seen in Ireland during the early 1900s on through the 1970s and The Troubles.

Trump won, and his administration will definitely find unique means to jump start the economy, some by means of manipulations with short term results and one, his assurance to crank up drilling for oil and natural gas and mining coal, will have immediate and long term benefits if they aren’t rescinded by some later commie regime seeking to enact carbon credit taxes and shut fossil fuels down again.

But liberty and our freedoms will not necessarily be in better hands, given what we all saw during his first term, and much remains to be seen, especially when it comes to who will be in his cabinet. ~ J.O.S.

The Odds Are Never In Your Favor

For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society saying to our citizens, “As long as you obey the law – we will leave you alone.”

~ Forewords ~
How many years ago was the following written and posted? Does it really matter? One can change a few of the embedded names, but the story has remained the same – or has it all worsened? I believe that it has. During the week of April 5th, 2021 – I covered numerous stories from the past – two from October and early November of 2001 – just weeks after 9/11 – which dealt specifically with Anthrax, potential quarantine and the possibility of Masks – in other words – CONTROL of the minds and the bodies of the people. To me – it was the experimental game leading up to much of what we have dealt with in 2020 and continuing into this year – and Fauci was already involved with the games that many years ago.

Since that time, we have survived through the Shrub Bush years and those of the Kenyan, leading into a single term of Trump – and now we are faced with controls which are deep into the darkness of the Biden ‘administration’ – and believe that it will be short-lived. What follows below was republished with permission by the author – on it’s original day of publication and has remained within the pages of Kettle Moraine Publications ever since – and continues to hold such great importance today – maybe more-so that when it was written over five years ago – thus – it became the background for my nightly program today.

This Is a Good Time to Be Optimistic

It started with the Antonine Plague in the late 160s AD, most likely a really bad smallpox epidemic that killed 8 million people across the Roman Empire.

Then came the barbarian invasions… a tidal wave of migrants pouring across Rome’s northern border and plundering the countryside.

The Roman government also bizarrely spent a fortune doling out vast sums of money to adversary nations – a sort of bribe (they called it ‘tribute’) to make sure that foreigner powers wouldn’t attack Rome. Continue reading

Smith: Ol’ Guy Wisdom On Toxic Masculinity

I’ve never felt more alive than when racing down a raging river on a raft, driving 140 mph down a winding road, jumping off bridges and cliffs into the waters below, swimming in the ocean, climbing a mountain, breaking my hand on some fool’s head, running down a wooded path with Sweet Mutt, watching a new sunrise or watching the sunset with a beautiful woman sitting by my side… And yes – I’ve done all these things and more.

Dickens: The Fractured Nation

February 28, 2017 – We are a fractured country. We live in fragmented communities. We don’t know our neighbors and we don’t even know ourselves. We lap up bullshit served up by a media with an agenda of disunity. They speak and the sheople follow lemming like right over the cliff.

Would you like an example? Read the divisive crap on this social site (Facebook) alone. There are now two sides to everything further dividing us in to camps. Some love Mr. Trump and some actually hate him because of the vitriol spewing from the fountain of lies in the media. Continue reading

The 1866 Civil Rights Revolution

The phrase “equality of opportunity” is expressed by the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as a nondiscrimination principle. There has been much debate on whether the nondiscrimination principle is a formal right to equality before the law, reflecting the principle that everyone has a right not to be discriminated against, or whether it is a substantive right vested in specified groups (e.g., blacks or women) to give them special legal protection that members of other groups (e.g., whites or men) do not enjoy.

Maryland Public School District Removes 2 Pro-LGBT Books From List Elementary School Students Must Read

A Maryland county public school district board involved in a religious freedom lawsuit that awaits a decision from the U.S. Supreme Court has removed two pro-LGBT books from its list that elementary school students must read.

ABC7 News reported on October 28 that Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) has “disapproved” the books “Pride Puppy” and “My Rainbow” from the list but, as The Washington Post reported, the books are still in the school’s library. Continue reading

Juntti: How to UNRIG the Elections!

Unregister!

voteOctober 18, 2016 ~ In the 90’s I was a PCO in a rural area.. I went out and knocked on the doors of every registered voter in my precinct. A friend of mine who lived in a nearby precinct did the same thing. We found that in the most recent list of registered voters that many had moved – several had died, some years ago – but they were all still listed on the registered voters list.

We took this information to the county Auditor who, if memory serves me right, was Cathy Pearsall-Stipek (D). We showed her what we had found out and requested those names who had died or moved be removed from the voters registration roll in our precincts. We were told that we couldn’t do that as the **person involved** had to come in and make the request to be removed. My question was HOW DOES A DEAD PERSON DO THAT???? She had no answer.

Juntti: Did I make a difference?

September 2, 2010 ~ I heard this song by the Oak Ridge Boys recently and it just hit me – I am sure I’ve heard it many times in the past but this time the words really rang thru my head. Maybe it is my age (only being 16 ya know), maybe it is all the political things going on and the efforts so many of us have been and are making to *make a difference* – to wake folks up to what is going on and how their napping is supporting the destruction of America.

I do a lot of one on one emailing with readers all over and one of the topics most emailed about is my faith. How I seem to not be as *emotionally* stirred up as some writers on things. I tell them it is my unwavering FAITH in God to carry me thru whatever comes along. I have this small wall plaque that was my mothers that says, “The Will of God will never lead you where the Grace of God cannot keep you.” Continue reading

Bennett: 2024 ~ Back to the Future… for time is running out!

The following column was published on Federal Observer on October 5, 2022. Nothing has changed. I have provided many links below to allow our readers to fully understand the insanity of it all. ~ Jeffrey Bennett, Editor

Since June 28, 1995… I have been telling you so…

The phrase “the Fall of America” suggests some cataclysmic event ended the American Empire which had stretched from Maine to California and Florida to Washington. But at the end, there was no straining at the gates, no barbarian horde that dispatched the Empire in one fell swoop. Rather, the Empire fell slowly, as a result of challenges from within and without, and changing over the course of hundreds of years until its form was unrecognizable.

These past four years, and more these past two months and days have put pressure on this nation as has not been seen since both our American Revolution of the 1770’s, and our second Revolution of the 1860’s. For me – it has been the days of this week, more than any before them.

Frankly, the 21 months I spent in Vet Nam between 1968 (beginning months after the Tet Offensive) and ending in early 1970 – not once during that time did I feel the pressure nor fear – that I feel for this nation – and our future – that I feel today. Continue reading

DiLorenzo: The Fraud Has Begun

Will we remain a constitutional republic or become a banana republic? Our long walk down a dark road could be ending soon. Pray to God it does!

Crooked Voting

“Americans will always do the right thing – after exhausting all the alternatives.”  – Commonly credited to Winston Churchill

The voting situation has already become tense. Lawsuits are everywhere. Democrats are posing as election officials. Cheat-by-mail schemes by Democrats, and printing errors are causing thousands of ballots to disappear or remain uncountable. Ballots are being overcounted. Ballot box fires are being reported in several states. And, of course, voting by illegal aliens has affected almost every state. Thank you, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. As of September 2024, only five states are actively purging non-citizens from their voter rolls. Continue reading

E. Cantavero 1968

There are those in America today, who can look back so many years – and see the future. I was in Viet Nam, and you were still in school. I thank you for sharing this with me my friend. At some point – I will see you on the Other side! ~ Jeffrey Bennett

Roberts: How America Was Destroyed

Hardly anything is left!

Those who control the Democrat Party are concerned about Kamala’s election chances. Little wonder. She represents the most anti-American, anti-Constitution, anti-white, anti-peace regime in US history. Top Democrats are concerned that Trump will not only take the swing states, despite the multiple theft mechanisms Democrats have in place, but also some blue states. Polls are revealing that a majority of men of color see Trump as a leader of America and Kamala as a destroyer of America. Those who control the Democrat party, most certainly not the people, are also disturbed by reports of the heavy early voting by Trump supporters. Continue reading

Bans on Smartphones in the Classroom Gain Favor Across Political Spectrum

The school year is over, and the results should leave parents and educators with more anxiety than relief. Achievement scores are near historical lows and student absenteeism is high. There is some bipartisan agreement, though, on classroom management that could help students begin to rebound in the fall: Prohibit smartphones in classrooms.

Earlier this year, Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb, a Republican, adopted a proposal that prohibits students from using phones in class. Last week, the Los Angeles Unified School District school board voted to prohibit smartphones in classrooms. Continue reading
