How far we have fallen

How many times a week do comment to yourself, or others, how far we have fallen as a society? Perhaps this observation is a daily occurrence?

While stopped at an intersection one recent early evening, I noted a lone man in the crosswalk wearing a covid mask. I repeat: he was alone and wearing a mask! Cue head shaking and eyes rolling.

Then, someone sends me this tweet a few days later, ” BRADY BUNCH FAMILY GETS THE MEASLES IN 1969.” Boy, is this video on point. Watch:

What a difference half a century makes. Certainly, there were no such things as safe-spaces or trigger warnings because the culture was, predominantly, mentally tougher 55 years ago.

What caused this change from a culture laughing off once common illnesses, to people now scared for their lives the moment someone coughs or sneezes? I believe it’s America collectively losing the fear of God. I commented on this in my book American Christian: A Treatise of Spiritual, Cultural and Political Discernment. From the chapter titled, “On the Fear of the Lord,”:

“The West has reached the point where it has normalized pathological fear. Perhaps my statement could be construed as over-the-top, but you have only to reflect upon the culture’s obsessive fright over germs (what used to be seasonal maladies, such as the common cold or the flu) to see its accuracy. Fear has crossed from the reasonable to the irrational for an ever-growing number of Americans.” (Bahr, 2023. pg 23-24)

Fear of the Lord does not mean worrying if or when God will smite or punish you for some reason. Scripture actually tells us the fear of the Lord in the beginning of wisdom and, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. (Proverbs 9:10).

If the fear of the Lord (whether in reverence, awe, or dread) is the beginning of wisdom, therefore, no fear of the Lord results in folly, stupidity or irrationality; take your pick.

The Brady Bunch clip featured in this piece came from a time when Americans predominately feared God. The Law and Order: SVU clip , replete with dramatic pearl-clutching doom -and-gloom is from our “enlightened” (sarc) modern times.

Need I say more?

My, how far we have fallen.

Wake up Canadians

Wake up Canadians. President Trump is not threatening your sovereignty. He’s trying to snap you out of the delusion that everything is fine in your nation: it isn’t.

Trump calling for Canada as the 51st state, is a troll. Seriously, why would Trump make the 51st state a country steeped in socialism? Sorry, but most Canadians would likely vote Democrat to keep their socialized health care benefits, because it’s what they’re used to. That would only hurt America.

Don’t you get that? Trump’s comment followed former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stating any reciprocity in trade with the United States would hurt Canada.

President Donald Trump and former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau

For decades, Canada slapped huge tariffs on US exports such as a 270 percent tariff on dairy products, for example. In both 2023 and 2024 America imported more from Canada than it exported, resulting in a trade deficit.

Interestingly , America has a trade deficit not only with Canada, but most of the world. Trump is calling for reset.

From White House.gov:

“AMERICA WILL NO LONGER TOLERATE UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES: The United States is one of the most open economies in the world, yet our trading partners keep their markets closed to our exports. This lack of reciprocity is unfair and contributes to our large and persistent annual trade deficit.
There are endless examples where our trading partners do not give the United States reciprocal treatment.
The U.S. tariff on ethanol is a mere 2.5%. Yet Brazil charges the U.S. ethanol exports a tariff of 18%. As a result, in 2024, the U.S. imported over $200 million in ethanol from Brazil while the U.S. exported only $52 million in ethanol to Brazil.
The U.S. average applied Most Favored Nation (MFN) tariff on agricultural goods is 5%. But India’s average applied MFN tariff is 39%. India also charges a 100% tariff on U.S. motorcycles, while we only charge a 2.4% tariff on Indian motorcycles.
The European Union can export all the shellfish it wants to America. But the EU bans shellfish exports from 48 of our states, despite committing in 2020 to expedite approvals for shellfish exports. As a result, in 2023, the U.S. imported $274 million in shellfish from the EU but exported only $38 million.
The EU also imposes a 10% tariff on imported cars. Yet the U.S. only imposes a 2.5% tariff.
A 2019 report found that across 132 countries and more than 600,000 product lines, United States exporters face higher tariffs more than two-thirds of the time.
This lack of reciprocity is one source of America’s large and persistent annual trade deficit in goods: closed markets abroad reduce U.S. exports and open markets at home result in significant imports, both of which undercut American competitiveness.
The United States has run a trade deficit of goods every year since 1975. In 2024, our trade deficit in goods exceeded $1 trillion.
Thanks to the proliferation of non-reciprocal barriers in just the last few years, the U.S. now runs a trade deficit in agriculture, worth around $40 billion in 2024.
Though America has no such thing, and only America should be allowed to tax American firms, trading partners hand American companies a bill for something called a digital service tax.
Canada and France use these taxes to each collect over $500 million per year from American companies.
Overall, these non-reciprocal taxes cost America’s firms over $2 billion per year.
Reciprocal tariffs will bring back fairness and prosperity to the distorted international trade system and stop Americans from being taken advantage of.”

Any change in the one-way benefits from the U.S. Economy means Canada cannot survive. Simply put, Trump said if Canada cannot even put together its own military and defense then it should become America’s 51st state.

Instead of taking offense, my Canadian brothers and sisters, you should be taking inventory. For all your re-ignited patriotism , has it crossed your minds that for a supposed sovereign country , your leaders have made you dependent on another nation for your national defense and economy ?

You’ve become a “pass- through” economy , assembling goods from other countries for distribution in the United States. Get it? Canada , once an industrial rich nation now only puts together other nations’ products.

Wake up Canadians! How can you throw your support for the liberal government that has ruined your country because it considers climate change policy and socialized medicine more important than the people? Are you so gullible as to consider President Trump the source of your problems?

Judicial tyranny , it’s all the Democrats got

Judicial tyranny, it’s all the Democrats got in their efforts to stop the Trump train. Not surprising, considering they are the party of hate and lawlessness.

Nationwide injunctions by federal district judges are unconstitutional: a blatant assault on the Executive Branch and clear violation of the separation of powers. In just two months, radical leftist judges have issued a record 15 injunctions against Trump efforts to deport murderous illegal aliens, remove waste from federal government and remove trans-athletes from women sports.

This is compared to just 14 for Joe Biden’s entire term, 64 for Trump’s first term, and only 12 for Barack Obama’s entire eight years. Of the 127 injunctions since 1963, Trump has 79 of them.

That number is more than the total against all presidents combined before Trump. They’re desperate , folks.

Trump is such an existential threat to their corrupt business as usual practices in Washington DC, so they gotta pull out the stops. The problem is now they’ve jumped the shark with the sheer volume of judicial pushback. Now, the 77.3 million Trump voters are watching closely.

A reckoning is coming.

Trump has the people on his side. Poll after poll has shown approval of everything he is doing . These unelected activist judges are literally thwarting the people’s will.

Trump is rightly ignoring these rulings, causing more apoplexy on the left, which I believe is the goal. Remember, Trump always has a plan.

I’m not privy to any insider information. I’m just a guy typing on his laptop in his office and paying attention.

All you have to do is look at the asymmetric warfare tactics he has engaged the Dems and the Deep State with. He’s attacking their financial pipelines with DOGE, removing their spheres of cultural influence through the shutting down of USAID and the dissolving of the Department of Education.

Does it not figure Trump will decimate these leftist jurists in a similar fashion ? We’re not talking impeachment , but other means the legacy media can’t fathom.

Trump is much more savvy of the Democrat and Deep State tactics than he was in his first term. Don’t doubt for a minute countermeasures aren’t in place.

Of course, he’s counting on the Supreme Court to intervene, once and for all, on this question . However, Trump is smart; he realizes Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett are wobbly .

I’m confident he has one if not several Trump cards in place (pun intended). If so, the Democrats’ judicial tyranny will be just as neutered as their political power. Take heart regarding judicial tyranny, it’s all the Democrats got. The memes say it all.

Thank God for President Trump

Thank God for President Trump. If you study history, there’s no doubt God appoints all leaders for specific times . (Daniel 2:21, NKJV). These are men and women, equipped with certain skillsets, strengths and even weaknesses for God’s will and purposes.

Can you imagine just how terrible things would be right now if Kamala Harris won the presidency and the clowns sitting on their hands at President Trump’s Joint Speech to Congress were in absolute power?
We’d be done as a nation: plain and simple.

Think about the nearly mortal wounds inflicted on this country under the Biden Presidency. From the wide-open southern border, runaway inflation, rising energy prices, to President Biden demonizing half the country as extremists : metaphorically speaking, every day was another cut, gradually sapping our life away.

The Age of Nonsense, that was the Biden era. An apt term– what with the media’s and government’s obsession of convincing us two plus two equals five. If this term is unfamiliar you can read it’s about it here.

Remember these Orwellian examples of two plus two equal five? America is a nation of immigrants, therefore we must have a wide-open border. The covid lockdowns kept us safe by isolating us from loved ones /friends , decimating intellectual/social milestones for children and nearly destroying the economy. Transgendered men competing in women’s sports or accessing women’s bathrooms is perfectly normal.

Biden’s satanic minions slandered us as evil, racist, misogynist, transphobic, xenophobic, bigots, because we rejected their warped moral arithmetic. They tried to bully us into standing down against their wicked morality

However, all their efforts to break us backfired. How did this happen?

One thing about Dems, overkill consumes them when it comes to their enemies. Their efforts to destroy President Trump, whether through corrupt show trials, an FBI raid of his Mar -A- Lago home, and two assassination attempts exemplified this bloodlust.

A “bipartisan” and crooked unselect January 6 committee was the Deep State’s effort to make a Trump conviction nice and legal-like. Under the guise of saving democracy, the pulled out the stops to brand Trump an insurrectionist . That included possible witness tampering and the destruction of any evidence exonerating Trump.

Except, the opposite happened. Americans saw this onslaught on one man and it re-awakened in them an instinctual revulsion of tyranny.

Oh yeah, the nation got red-pilled.

Not Trump’s base, they never abandoned him. However, once solid Dem constituencies such as black men and latinos broke free of the Democrat matrix. A reality check was happening.

For years these black and brown communities protested abuse at the hands of the law. Now they were seeing that play out against the orange man who the media characterized as a racist. Something didn’t compute , hence the red-pilling of these constituencies.

They noted the abuse of the law against Trump and said to themselves, “Trump may have posted mean tweets, but my bank account was bigger when he was President. Food /utilities were definitely cheaper , America was energy independent and we were respected in the world. Biden reversed all of this.”

And so ushered in this golden era of Common Sense, dismaying the Dems. Through this new lens, former Dem supporters now a see a political party losing their minds over the lawful deportation of murderous illegal-alien gang-bangers and willing to die on the hill of transgenderism.

I recently wrote of the Dems as the real party of hate. Their Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) has unmasked their loathing of America and this vitriol is literally driving them mad.

God is exposing them for all to see through their TDS. All I can say is, thank God for President Trump.

President Trump delivers joint session Congress speech

Hard to believe it’s been over a month since President Trump’s inauguration on January 20. The world is changing , therefore Trump will no doubt have plenty to say in this speech before a joint session of Congress. Watch

This is not a State of the Union Speech, since that is usually a recap of the President’s past year in office. Although , President Trump has already done more for the people in America in nearly two months, than Joe Biden did in four years.

Nevertheless, Democrats are treating the address like a State of the Union Speech . Michigan Senator Elissa Slotkin, a former CIA operative, will be delivering the rebuttal .

Democrat kryptonite

DOGE has become Democrat. kryptonite. The agency is literally showing all Dem power and influence is illusory.

In Superman lore, kryptonite are fragments of Superman’s home world, Krypton. These irradiated pieces of the planet can weaken and even kill the Man of Steel.

Now please don’t think for a minute I am equating the Dems with Superman. While he stands for truth, justice and the American way, the Dems and Deep State are the complete opposite.

The fraud and waste Elon Musk and company are illuminating with DOGE is weakening the Democrat Party and the Deep State. Most taxpaying Americans are righteously angry at such United States Agency for International Development (USAID) expenditures as $47 thousand for a transgender opera in Columbia, over $5 million for gay rights in Uganda, or $17 million for “inclusion” in Vietnam.

Elon Musk presenting chainsaw given to him by Argentinian President Javier Milei

Some are speculating we are witnessing the exposure of an elaborate money-laundering system through DOGE’s initial audit of USAID. Democrats aren’t the least bit pissed off about this defrauding of the US taxpayer. Nahh… they’re instead raging at Elon for his revelations.

Senator Corey Booker defending USAID

You know what DOGE is presenting for everyone to see? Nothing is genuine or organic about Democrat power. The party manufactures, gaslights, and pays for everything.

For instance, DOGE exposed USAID giving millions of dollars to over 600 journalists and over 700 news outlets throughout the world.

Take a look at some of these findings.

The New York Times :

–$50 million from various government sources. Nearly $30 million from Health and Human Services.

Politico

–Over $34 million dollars from various government agencies. Guess who also broke the story of the 51 intelligence operatives claiming the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation? That’s right , the Politico.

Associated Press

— Nearly $20 million in government contracts, over $600 thousand in Deparment of State grants, with funding spikes in 2020 and 2024

REUTERS:

–$9 million from the Department of Defense for “Active Social Engineering Defense and Large Scale Social Deception” ?

$220,000 from the Department of State just last year.

BBC:

— British Broadcasting Corporation not only got $3 million from American taxpayers , Bill Gates also donated $20 million. Yeah, that Bill Gates.

It’s no surprise why media repeats the same narratives from the same angles worldwide.

And since USAID was first in DOGE’s crosshairs, now the Dems are in full-blown meltdown. Trump Derangement Syndrome or is it now Musk Madness , has them so discombobulated, they don’t realize how out of touch they appear to the American public.

What has been done in secret since is no longer hidden from the American people. It reminds me of Luke 8:17:

“For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open.”(NKJV)

Everything about the left is bought and paid for according to these revelations. President Trump’s got the receipts for US taxpayers. Just think, we’re only nearing six weeks of this administration. Can you imagine what voters will learn in the next six months?

Btw, the Democrat kryptonite isn’t DOGE, it’s truth. Like the green rock to Superman, Democrats hate the truth because they wither under its power.

Democrats are unraveling over USAID revelations

To say that Democrats are unraveling over USAID revelations in a headline is an understatement. They’re outraged, not at the waste of taxpayer funds revealed by Department of Government Efficiency, but at DOGE for exposing it.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt shared a list of some of United States Agency for International Development budget expenditures at a recent press briefing.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt describes the waste of USAID

$2 million

for sex changes and “LGBT activism” in Guatemala.

$6 million

to fund tourism in Egypt.

Spent

$20 million on “Ahlan Simsim” — a new Sesame Street show in Iraq.

Over $4.5 million

to “combat disinformation” in Kazakhstan.

Up to $10 million

worth of USAID-funded meals went to al Qaeda-linked terrorist group the Nusra Front.

$500,000

to group that “empowers women” in an attempt to solve sectarian violence in Israel just 10 days before Hamas’s Oct. 7 attacks. Awarded

nearly $25 million

to Deloitte to promote green transportation in Georgia (the country).

$4.67 million

to EcoHealth Alliance, one of the key nongovernmental organizations funding bat virus research at Wuhan Institute of Virology, in late 2021. Later

refused

to answer key questions about the funding.

$20 million

for the Strengthening Transparency and Accountability through Investigative Reporting program which used the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project as its implementing partner. The OCCRP was cited four times in the

whistleblower letter

that led to the Russiagate impeachment. USAID’s

2022-2030 climate strategy

outlined a $150 billion “whole-of-Agency approach” to building an “equitable world with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions.”

$7.9 million

to a project that would

teach

Sri Lankan journalists to avoid “binary-gendered language.”

$1.1 million

to an Armenian LGBT group.

$1.2 million

to the African Methodist Episcopal Church Service and Development Agency in Washington, D.C., to build “a state-of-the-art 440-seat auditorium.”

$1.3 million

to Arab and Jewish photographers.

$1.5 million

to promote LGBT advocacy in Jamaica.

$1.5 million

to “rebuild” the Cuban media ecosystem.

$1.5 million

for “art for inclusion of people with disabilities.”

$2 million

to promote “LGBT equality through entrepreneurship … in developing Latin American countries.”

$2.1 million

so the BBC can strengthen the media ecosystem in Libya, “designed to value the diversity of Libyan society.”

$2.3 million

for “artisanal and small-scale gold mining” in the Amazon.

$2.5 million

to promote “inclusion” in Vietnam.

$3.9 million

to LGBT causes in the Western Balkans.

$5.5 million

to LGBT in Uganda.

$6 million

to advance LGBT in “priority countries around the world.”

$6 million

to “Transform Digital Spaces to Reflect Feminist Democratic Principles.”

$6.3 million

to men who have sex with men in South Africa.

$8.3 million

for “USAID Education: Equity and Inclusion.”

Another $16.8 million

to a separate group in Vietnam for “inclusion.”

And get this, the radicals at USAID were even bankrolling leftist leaning news outlets, including Politico. President Donald Trump pointed this out in his usual style at the National Prayer Breakfast.

Discombobulated ? That definitely explains Sen. Cory Booker’s meltdown after DOGE’s revelation of waste by USAID.

Methinks the left doth protest too much. Their unhinged reaction tells you all you need to know about the importance of USAID to leftist causes and strategies.

The Dems’ collective rage may have distracted in the past , but Trump’s return to the presidency has sparked a cultural shift. All their tantrums are doing now is further opening the public’s eyes to USAID as political influence operation of the CIA and State Department, and a massive money laundering source . Natalie Winters succinctly describes this process.

Leftists are in panic mode. Why else would Samantha Power go on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert to gaslight USAID as this benign and benevolent entity that saves lives? Check out this clip from X. You can Watch the entire interview on YouTube.

Why do leftist women always look so pissed off? But I digress.

Late Show Host Stephen Colbert has no idea what he is talking about. Defunding USAID is not unconstitutional.

Colbert is correct when he said USAID was created by President John F. Kennedy. However he left out an important detail of Kennedy creating USAID by Executive Order.

Why is this important? Executive Orders of one president can be undone by an EO of another president. Executive Orders usually last the term of the president , that Kennedy’s lasted for over 60 years means both parties benefitted from this department in one way or another.

Speaking of EO ‘s , President Trump’s rapid policy blitz is driving the left bonkers. Piece by piece, Trump is methodically dismantling the silos of Democrat influences.

Crews removing the signage from the building that housed USAID is symbolic of this process of defunding the left, removing spheres of propaganda and dismantling the Deep State.

MAGA is in full throttle and its only been three weeks since President Trump’ s inauguration. Frankly, it’s both hilarious and glorious to witness.

Poise in the face of desperation

If there is one consistency in the Senate confirmation hearings of Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., it is their poise in the face of desperation.

Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr

Senate Dems look bad in these hearings. I mean B.A.D!

Whatever doubts about the UniParty as shills for Big Pharma, the military-industrial complex, the intelligence community and globalists are gone. Their Democrats’ dedication is not protecting the American people, but maintaining the narrative of January 6 as an existential threat to democracy, benign forced vaccines and an above -board 2020 Presidential Election.

Rude, condescending, and petulant is not a good look in a political reality where nearly 60 percent of the American public disapprove of the Democrat Party.

Trump won in a landslide, both the Electoral College and the popular vote. A majority of the American people want Trump to turn this country around.

Dem /RINO feigned histrionics and moral outrage is falling on deaf ears. Simply put, the American public believes President Trump should have his nominees in place to do the job they elected him for.

Contributing to this futility? The public believes Dems, the UnParty and legacy media, lie. That’s a huge cultural shift.

It’s not just we who know this, but also RFK, Jr, Patel and Gabbard. You can see it in their faces , amused by the desperate interrogations of the UniParty.

They’re neither flustered nor unsettled. The well-worn tactics of UniParty hacks demanding a yes-or no answer and never giving the nominee an opportunity to respond have become a worn-out schtick.

RFK, Jr calls Bernie Sanders Big Pharma shill and leaves a mark:

Patel exposes Adam “Pencil neck” Schiff’s natural jerk by simply telling the truth. Watch:

And Gabbard the evokes the serpentine mannerisms of Senator Mark Warner (watch this guy’s tongue, btw) :

These are just a few examples of the pathetic stature of Democrats and the Uniparty during these hearings. Their desperation is magnified in light of the nominees’ poise.

And what is the source of such distress? You know it as fear and it’s oozing from every pore of the UniParty.

To quote the legacy media, “the walls are closing in” on the UniParty/Deep State . Keep pressing in with prayer: the Dems and the UniParty are becoming unhinged and unglued before everyone.

Meanwhile, remember this mockingbird media classic compilation ?

Captain America shouldn’t represent America?

Captain America shouldn’t represent America? That’s what Captain America :Brave New World star, Anthony Mackie said in a recent European interview.

Anthony Mackie as Captain America

As of this writing, Marvel Studios is in major damage control mode.

Mackie released this statement after the backlash:

Here’s why Mackie stepped in it.

“For me Captain America represents a lot of different things and I don’t think the term, you know, America should be one of those representations. Like, uh, it’s about a man who keeps his word, who has honor , dignity and integrity…”

Mr. Mackie, the character’s name is Captain America and besides that, he wears a costume based on the American flag. How can you expect him not to represent the country?

The character debuted in World War 2 punching out a certain Nazi dictator on the cover of his first comic issue and has stood and fought for American ideals ever since.

Either Mackie felt he had to say this in front of a European audience to promote the film, or this is what he really thinks. Whatever the case, this guy who plays the title role of, who I like to call, “Captain African-American”, has given the viewing public yet another reason not to waste their money on this movie.

Captain America : Brave New World has gone through multiple re-shoots due to disastrous test screenings and is experiencing underwhelming advance ticket sales. In other words, insiders expect another Disney movie flop.

The problem with the movie is it features Captain America, but without Steve Rogers, the one and only Star Spangled Avenger. Mackie was originally The Falcon in the Marvel Universe, a historical character as Marvel Comics’ second black superhero.

Frankly, Marvel messed up passing Captain America’s shield to Sam Wilson/aka The Falcon. He was a perfectly fine and likable character in his own right. Why make him a hand-me-down hero?

Yes Sam Wilson became Cap in the comics, back in the 2010’s but sales tanked on the book .

Sam Wilson as Captain America

Woke politics caused Marvel to virtue signal, race-swapping the character. Fans hated the change, voicing Cap should have passed the mantle to Bucky,/The Winter Soldier his friend from World War 2 who, like Rogers was enhanced by the super soldier serum.

Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes/ The Winter Soldier

Bucky was a more successful Captain America in the comics because of the dynamic of him once being the brainwashed assassin, the Winter Soldier.

Bucky Barnes as Captain America

The problem most fans have with the new Captain America is he doesn’t have super strength. He just a regular guy with mechanical wings.

Anthony Mackie is a likable actor, but, sorry, he’s best as a supporting actor, not a leading man. Marvel knows this which is why Red Hulk is in the movie to boost ticket sales. At least that what Marvel execs are hoping.

But now those hopes are waning with Mackie’s ill-advised comments.

Captain America : Brave New World is scheduled for release during Black History Month (coincidence?) on February 14.
