show maturity
GREAT BEND TRIBUNE | Jan 18, 2022
Nickoles Sandmann and Kyle Rittenhouse are two American teenagers who fate propelled into circumstances beyond their years, yet both acted with a maturity and restraint under intense pressure that highly trained adults have often mishandled.
A culture that can produce two young men with this combination of innate courage and instinctive moral clarity has got to be doing something right!
In a contest between good and evil these ordinary teenagers overcame the forces of chaos, in Rittenhouse’s case the specter of death at the hands of a craven mob; only to be persecuted by a corrupt political/media elite that has come to represent the nihilism of the neo-American left.
A left whose ethical void has been filled by Jacobins like Representatives Ilhan Omar, Eric Swalwell, Adam Schiff and to the shame of the nation President Joe Biden.
In a world where deception is transformed into truth by masquerading in a swirl of media manufactured disinformation, these two innocent young men overcame a pack of frothing jackals with an unpretentious courage that resides at the core of all American greatness. Gregory Bontrager, Hutchinson

In a few short months America has gone from the pinnacle under Trump to laughingstock of the World à la Joe Biden and his smug disinterested administration.
These people don’t care about the price of gas or milk or keeping warm in winter because they don’t have to, it’s below their station to worry about such trivial things. Tilting at windmills is their priority, no matter how much it costs the rest of us.
If Biden showed the same outrage for the plight of working America or fixed income elderly as he does fake border incidents or paying third world grifters hundreds of thousands in taxpayer dollars maybe his poll numbers wouldn’t be plunging like the proverbial rock.
A wise man once said, “You know them by their works” and we’ve come to know the works of Joe Biden and his incompetent duplicitous administration all too well. Gregory Bontrager, Hutchinson
attacks by homeless men: What does it
reveal about America’s crime wave?
Instead, the once-vaunted FBI is being morphed into the KGB lite by politicized operatives like Attorney General Merrick Garland, whose allegiance seems to be servicing the needs of the democratic elite and the intimidation of law-abiding citizens who have legitimate grievances.
American parents have a right to be outraged at Trojan horse school curriculums and a right to express that outrage in profound terms. This country wasn't founded by sheep, but by the greatest order of human beings to set foot on earth and it's time we act accordingly.
Parents standing up for their children against this fifth column of virtue signaling misanthropes is a virtue not a threat and represents a counter to the bold display of Biden regime speech suppression tactics.

The unarmed Babbitt’s death deserving offence was climbing through a broken window.
While media stooges and sinister political forces try to gaslight the Capitol riot into the Reichstag fire, the decorated Air Force veteran crossed the river Styx for what amounted to trespassing.
Babbitt was different from other high profile police shootings; she had a long history of esteemed patriotic service to her country. Yet there will be no statues erected or city squares named after her.
Ashli Babbitt had no business being in the Capitol building on January 6th, but her biggest mistake was not realizing that the “summer of love” rules didn’t apply to her or thousands of other disaffected Trump supporters.

Not to mention the thousands of American citizens and NATO allies who were callously left to fend for themselves at the hands of the brutal Taliban. NATO member Prime Minister Janez Jansa said on Aug. 16 this is the “Greatest defeat for NATO in history.”
From his first day in office, America and the world have discovered the hard way that Biden’s governance can be summed up succinctly with the phrase, “from order comes chaos.” Everything this man and his regime touch seems to spiral into the abyss.
In my view, American citizens, third-world migrants, Afghan interpreters and our NATO partners’ only value is to serve the needs of Joe Biden and his Democratic base in callus pursuit of their own radical agenda.

With Trump, it was back across the border you go, with Biden its catch and release into the heartland of America using the highly problematic honor system to appear in court at a later date.
From Trump border order, into the nirvana of chaos so loved by the pathologically irrational American progressive movement, it’s California here we come!
As usual, it will be the proletariat who bears the brunt of this masochism inflicted on us by the ever so virtuous intelligentsia of the Democratic Party along with their Hollywood/billionaire donor-accomplices, who love moralizing to us 'lost souls' as they cynically pursue their own political and economic self-interest no matter what the cost to the rest of us may be.

What will our fearless leader Joe Biden do to protect America from this invasion in all but name only? If history is an indicator of the past, they will not be required to receive a COVID-19 vaccination while millions of American citizens are under a mandate to do so (What makes them so special?).
Then these law breakers will be scattered like autumn leaves as surreptitiously as possible throughout the United States.
We will be lied to shamelessly at every convenient opportunity as a token number are sent back to Haiti. We will also hear bold statements of our humanitarian virtue as American citizens in border communities and throughout the nation will be expected to pay the price with our health-care system, schools and tax dollars to support these transnational grifters.

The people who built this country, fought the wars, pay the taxes and patrol the mean streets in police uniforms are being propelled into second class status by philosophical degenerates who have an absolute belief in their own supremacy. They twist our children with elitist lies like ‘critical race theory’ and obliterate high paying jobs in the name of hogwash called ‘global climate change’.
While sitting in gated communities with taxpayer funded security protecting their own backsides, they try to destroy the second amendment to the Constitution. A constitution whose only value to them is a punch line in the malignant propaganda they spew.

In my opinion, judging by the price of gasoline, natural gas, electricity, border security, inflation, unemployment or any other measure you choose, this is the most rapid under-reported downward spiral I have ever seen.
Evidently the American people haven’t learned that populating our government with serial liars and influence peddlers like Joe Biden and is a fast track to disaster.
While the previous administration’s brilliantly honed foreign policy is being dismantled and our schools are firmly in the grasp of radical teachers unions, remember we could have been on the path to a more prosperous, equitable union instead of this headlong plunge toward the foul stench of a woke socialist sewer.

So why do we spend billions importing petroleum from hostile powers and enriching our enemies when we are literally the energy capital of the world? This energy can be obtained safely but we allow misguided politicians and eco-radicals to block our path to energy independence and the revitalization of our economy.
In the meantime, we sit on an untapped gold mine that could free us of debt from China and dependence on Middle East principalities that hate us. We should be reaping the reward of our own natural resources. Energy independence by 2020 is an easily obtainable goal. The alternative is bondage to foreign powers that gloat at our misfortune.
The presidential election this November will be decisive in determining if the United States remains a superpower or fades into the obscurity of history.

I do remember President Trump’s pledge to put America first and the creation of tens of thousands of new jobs, including the recovery of thousands of manufacturing jobs that Obama said were gone for good. I also remember that 63 House Democrats boycotted his inauguration, Madonna saying she wanted to “blow up the White House” and Democrats plotting his impeachment before he was even inaugurated.
What Trump gave us was unparalleled economic growth, energy independence, stable borders and the reassertion of our sovereignty over leach nations like the People’s Republic of China. We also got an amoral Democratic Party that lied, connived and disseminated at every opportunity.
What the Biden administration has delivered is thousands of high-wage Americans forcibly propelled into the unemployment line in pursuit of the existential fairy tales of the left. The same lofty promises and failed policies are being propagated by essentially the same pack of losers that gave us the malaise of the Obama years and are being replicated in the Biden administration.

The real intent of this under-reported executive action is mean-spirited harassment of the law-abiding American shooting public who have used this inexpensive ammunition for years.
The gun control efforts of the Democrats have met with little success legislatively. So they enforce their will on an unwilling public through administrative gimmicks that will make an already severe ammunition shortage worse.
When the people reject Democratic gun control policy electively, they concentrate on shoving it down your throat administratively.

American’s only desire is to be free from the heavy hand of power-mongers, who are attempting to parse every aspect of our lives, all done under the color of law. The American people are being viewed as if they are inmates in a maximum security cellhouse.
The spirit of King George III resides at the highest levels of American government and is just as feckless and power-mad now as he was then.

They, along with the Chinese, Mexican cartels, teachers unions, Hollywood liberals and replacement American border crashers find the ethically flexible Joe Biden refreshing.
On the other hand Mexico and Canada, along with the rest of the world, even those who wouldn’t realize it at first, grew quite fond of Trump. In spite of his often obnoxious personality, his coherent policies worked spectacularly.
Now, we must endure four years of voodoo that will be passed off as science. We are required to pretend boys with penises can be girls; the Keystone Pipeline is environmentally harmful and benign children’s classics like Dr. Seuss must be banned!
Who is telling us this malarkey and, more important, why is anyone paying attention to them?

At this moment an unchecked World invasion of the United States along our southern border is underway. Yet Biden told political commentator Charles Hurt that he inherited this problem from the previous administration and the situation was now under control.
Instead of facing the crisis he created, Biden has constructed a “Potemkin” border where Mexican cartels aren’t really engaging in rampant human trafficking or drug peddling and unvetted foreign nationals aren’t being surreptitiously scattered throughout the United States. That’s all right-wing disinformation.
Clearly the Biden administration has placed the welfare of the nation below their own perceived political self-interest. Preferring instead to stand idly by while innocent American communities are being thrown to the wolves, forced to bear the brunt of this manufactured calamity.

Sanctuary cities that defy the will of the American people should be dealt with swiftly and, if need be, aggressively. The anchor baby loophole is being ruthlessly exploited by foreign nationals and no longer serves the purpose for which it was originally intended. This antiquated provision in the law needs to be eliminated.
We need to be selective in the people we grant citizenship to. They must reflect our religious, moral and constitutional values. If they don't, they have no business being granted citizenship. We are not citizens of the world, but of the United States of America.
Our obligation is to our own welfare first, not the rest of the world. The days of accepting freeloaders into our midst must come to an end.

These angels of light tell us that we are supposed to accept those who have committed a crime by entering our country illegally.
That they commit less crime and pay more than their fair share when exactly the opposite is true.
We are supposed to happily hand over our money, schools, and neighborhoods and if we object we are intolerant racists. After all, we are a nation of immigrants, aren't we?
It is time to put aside this childish rhetoric and the people who spew it.

I was working as a volunteer with the Sedgwick County EMS reserve when the unit I was stationed with responded to a multi-car accident. When we arrived at the scene several automobiles where overturned and the smell of gasoline permeated the air.
Wichita fire department personnel worked skillfully to stabilize the scene and extract an elderly couple who had been pinned in their vehicle. I participated in CPR on one of the victims but unfortunately both citizens died as a result of the injury’s they sustained.
I found out later the accident was caused by an illegal alien who had stolen a car and then attempted to evade the police in a high speed chase.
I never learned the fate of the perpetrator of this crime but I often wonder how many times a day innocent Americans are victimized at the hands of illegals who have no right to be in the United States.
I wish our president and supporters of the sanctuary city concept cared as much about the lives of innocent Americans as they do increasing their voter base.

Even more nefarious is the Chinese infiltration of our universities, where their students are used as intelligence agents to steal our most vital military and economic technology.
A stranglehold of Chinese cash and large student enrollment has created an environment of bullying were direct and implied pressure from mainland China has created an environment of “keep the Chinese happy,” no matter what the cost.
As usual, the highest administrative levels of our universities have caved to Chinese pressure.
It may be necessary to limit the number of Chinese students permitted to attend our schools in order to protect our most valuable technology from the pervasive threat Chinese intelligence gathering pose to the security of the American people.

A lawful society can never allow innocent citizens to be victimized or society at large to be held hostage to the tantrums of an aggrieved minority.
There is no justification for innocent people being set upon by arsonists, looters or organized agitators who use these uninvestigated incidents to further their own anger, political agenda or common thievery while masquerading behind the word protester.
If these criminals were charged for the felonies they committed instead of an overnighter in the local jail you would see a decline in this kind of behavior.

When I see a mother harassed for arranging a play date for her child in Wisconsin, a man in cuffs because he dared walk in a public park or public beaches closed by California’s governor-thug who has an unnatural fondness for illegal aliens, I realize why we have a Second Amendment.
The groundwork to tyranny is being laid like it always is, in the name of the people. Ask the shop owners who are being driven out of business what tyranny looks like. Look at the statistics for states that didn’t lockdown in contrast to the ones that did and the pandemic modeling of alleged experts that proved to be so wrong.

On the other hand; red-states with the support of Donald Trump tend to be citizen-friendly, prosperous and under control, while blue-states are in debt, with high taxation, and a declining population.
It’s too bad the Blues under the faux leadership of Joe Biden don’t spend as much time telling the truth as they do making up lies for years of catastrophic failure.

Uncle Joe happily recites the script of his radical handlers and is barely able to maintain stamina for a news conference before speaking gibberish.

How times in America have changed that a crank like Sanders could rise to the top of the Democratic Party. This socialist fraud has been tried and failed before with the same decline into poverty and ideological duplicity.

Blending into the weeds is a Darwinian survival skill Biden has mastered with scary proficiency. Biden’s team is attempting to project a “woke” image for an old-time politician who carries a ton of baggage.

What disturbs me even more is watching our political leadership bend to appease a Mexican government that actively encourages its citizens to break our immigration laws while it ruthlessly enforces its own.
We are being invaded by foreigners who don't care about our nation or our heritage. They are here for one reason, to take. Whether it be from our schools or medical system, these criminals continue to consume the life's blood of our elderly, children and working class.
We should expel those who have committed a criminal act by entering our nation illegally. If you have come to the U.S. by marriage fraud or any other illegal means you are not an immigrant, you are a criminal. You have no right to be here.
When will we man up and stop this invading army of marauders?

| Provoked by professional agitators, the Covington school students stood up to a hail of obscenity and intimidation that would have withered most adults. |
With a moral compass received from a superior education, they validated the teachers and schools they represented, in contrast to the provocateurs who rushed to judgment before learning the facts. Like the Jussie Smollett hoax, its evident many celebrities and media outlets didn’t care about the truth, as long as it supported a race-baiting narrative. Even now many would prefer to believe the lie. The Covington students are a credit to the nation while exposing their critics for the hucksters they are. Hate crimes exist, but many high profile cases have proven to be stunts perpetrated by fakers for political or personal gain.

Former acting ICE director Tom Homan summed it up best, 90% of illegals can’t find a way to court, but they don’t have a problem finding the welfare office.

Like Barack Obama, she is a virulent globalist, and has a religious belief in “man-made climate change.” This belief has caused the average German household to pay three times more in energy costs.
Merkel has led Germany from ethnic cohesion into a blood-soaked reign of terror by flooding the country with unassimilable migrants.
Like the United States, this open immigration is at the expense of the working class, who are supposed to shut up and pay the bill. Their plight is of little interest to Merkel or her ilk – if you don’t like it get out.
Police armed with sub-machine guns must patrol once safe streets and concrete barricades are needed for fear of being run-down by suicide martyrs.

Both of these countries have proven they know how to stop aggressive migrants from entering their sovereign territory. The days of dealing with invasion-migration tactics by massed foreigners must come to an end.
The use of tear gas, pepper spray or water cannon may be an unpleasant necessity when dealing with virulent border crashers. But the lesson will be learned very quickly.
The U.S. has learned the hard way we cannot be the world’s policeman. We must also learn that we cannot be the repository for every person or group of people who have a real or imagined reason for fleeing their country of origin.

According to USA Today “There has been an explosion in building border walls since World War II” from 7 to 77 in 2018.
Israeli, Hungarian and United States border barriers have proven to be nearly 100 percent effective.
Compared to the economic drain of illegal immigrants and the economic threat they pose to low-wage American workers, a wall would be cost-effective protection.
Other than a need for short-term seasonal workers, Mexican and Central American migrants provide little economic value to the United States.
Encouraged openly by Democrats and secretly by corporate Republicans, an activist-fueled invasion of the United States is underway, for what these two odd ends consider to be in their own political and economic self-interest.

According to the media, these migrants are poor hapless woman and children seeking a better life.
The reality is 80 to 90 percent are young fighting age men who tactically stage woman and children at the front of the column to bear the brunt of the tear-gas.
As with the European experience, most of them will become wards of the state either dependent on welfare or in prison.
If you want your schools and neighborhoods turned into crime-ridden sewers, by all means, let them in.
Never fear because even if you don’t an Activist court will force you into submission.
Resistance is futile in the Globalist order; you will be assimilated while the morally superior remain comfortably secure in gated communities protected by guards who carry guns, protecting them from the same third-world trash that we are supposed to joyfully rub elbows with.

The problem is they don’t. They reflect the rigid intolerance of the societies they come from. They have little regard for human life, including their own.
Never has such a religious culture believed itself to be so superior yet demonstrated the misogynistic brutishness of a third-world street gang.
The question Western societies must ask themselves: Is Muslim immigration worth the debasement of their own women and children in order to placate a subset of human beings whose ultimate objective is the destruction of every social vestige of the host country?
We also must remember that these people fled lands of competing tyrants and they were the losers.
Like most barbarians, they don’t seek to change their ways, but to ply their brutality on those they consider weaker than themselves.
Is victimhood at the hands of cultural thugs the legacy you wish to leave your children?

But Mr. Acosta’s intent is to create a hostile environment and to be as disruptive as possible so he can make a headline.
He does this at the expense of the American people and the other reporters who have legitimate questions to ask.
It's not just President Trump that Acosta is disrespecting but the millions of American citizens who love and voted for President Trump.
I want to hear what the president has to say, not the polemics of a disgruntled CNN windbag like Jim Acosta.

With our preoccupation with the war on terror, this looming superpower - more powerful and deadly than the former Soviet Union - is aggressively seeking to supplant the United States as the preeminent military and economic power on the globe.
Following a policy of appeasement, the Obama administration has abysmally failed to protect the American people from the Chinese. Why design for yourself when you can steal the best. And steal they do, from nuclear warheads to toaster ovens. According to Brooks, the PRC has 3,500 front companies in the U.S. whose sole purpose is the theft of our technology.

The more ignorant the healthcare consumer is, the more profitable they are for the healthcare provider. Shopping for health care across state line should be allowed.

By blocking Trump's order, Judge Orrick has made himself a willing participant in the criminal activity of these sanctuary cities. Orrick is an Obama appointee who reportedly raised $200,000 and donated $30,000 of his own money to former president Obama.
The fact that cherry-picked judges like Orrick can be used to disrupt the lawful exercise of executive power is an act of lawlessness that must not be tolerated.

If you like welfare, food stamps or unchecked borders, Obama was your man, but if you work for a living or own a business, President Trump is on your side.
The working class finally has a friend in the White House. The American worker will no longer be the target of runaway bureaucracies like the Environmental Protection Agency or rogue tax collectors in the IRS who were weaponized by Democrats to suppress political opposition.
Whether they sit on the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, city councils of sanctuary cities or the Hollywood elite, it is time to reject this neo-fascist sect that has seized control of the Democratic Party.
This new breed of Democrat follows a path of violent intolerance toward others and unlimited ambition for power, no matter how unethical the end result may be. The Democratic Party of today would be rejected by liberal icons like John F. Kennedy.
It is clear that a fifth column of Obama holdovers has embedded itself in the bureaucracy of the United States government and is illegally working to subvert the will of the American people and undermine the presidency of Trump.

Coexistence is a cover for the ultimate subjugation of other cultures whose only choice will be to convert or be driven to extinction. Assimilation has never been an objective of Islam.
Not all Muslims are the same, but a substantial segment of the Muslim population are jihadist or jihadi sympathizers which means a small number of these zealots are capable of disrupting the entire fabric of western civilization.

This utopian fallacy has driven peaceful Europe to the brink of chaos. Like most progressive disinformation, multiculturalism is a product of self-hating indoctrination based on a variation of white guilt.

The result being healthy ethnic cohesion and centuries-old cultural stability, minus the terrorism and high crime rates fostered by the virulent multiculturalism of Western Europe.

We do know that anyone who truly wants a gun for evil purposes will get one and that a gun in the hands of a citizen can bring the evil actions of another to an end very quickly.
If only a teacher, concert-goer or innocent bystander had been armed, how many people would be alive today? We will never know the answer to that question, but a solid case can be made that more guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens is a proactive deterrent and immediate resolution to gun violence.

Everywhere these so-called immigrants have been permitted to nest, crime rates have skyrocketed and civil chaos has followed. In countries like Sweden, Germany and France, women and children can no longer walk down once-safe streets for fear of being accosted by these violent sociopaths. Peaceful neighborhoods have become hunting grounds for gangs of predatory refugees.
Instead of protecting their citizens from these barbarians, the liberal governments of Europe and the United States are allowing the brutalization of their own populations at the politically correct altar of multiculturalism. In the masochistic liberal mindset, the defense of your own citizens from predation by foreign invaders has become an act of intolerance.

Your life and children have become subjects of social experimentation at the hands of activist judges who not only have ceded to themselves the power of judge but usurped the role of jury and executioner as well.

While Gen. Petraeus’ name has been dragged through the mud for his indiscretions, 6,600 convicted felons have been released from prison by the Obama administration because their sentences were deemed too harsh. The misconduct of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton outweighs anything Gen. Petraeus did, yet she receives a pass from the Democratic Party elite.
According to retired Gen. Paul Vallely, this follows a pattern by the Obama administration of purging the ranks of our most capable military leaders.

His administration has mastered the art of jumping from one lie and one disaster to another without missing a heartbeat. “Truth becomes lies,” “war is peace” and all that Orwellian memorabilia fit the “most transparent administration in history” to a T.
Great men and women try to find practical solutions to the world’s problems, while the Obamas of the world try to make the world’s problems fit politically correct solutions arrived at by ideological elitism. And when they fail, which they always do, it’s at the hands of some vast conspiracy instead of their own incompetence.

We lack even the rudimentary political will to control our own borders, much less our vital interests around the world. As Friedrich Nietzsche said generations ago, “Out of chaos comes order.” The frightening thing is Nietzsche’s kind of order comes at the price of our freedom and, if you live in the Middle East, maybe your head.
As the forces of darkness coalesce around our “shining city on the hill,” feckless, self-serving cowards inhabit the seats of power in Washington. Our enemies’ fear has turned into mocking laughter, as this stranded giant can’t even stop foreign children from walking across our border in broad daylight. Deviant lifestyles are taught as if they were normal in our schools, and left-wing disinformation is passed off as truth.
Day by day, the agencies responsible for maintaining order are being used as tools to spy on and persecute honest citizens because of their political views.

It was widely believed these demonic murders were retaliation for the recent convictions of upper echelon gang members and that the killings bore a striking similarity to Mexican drug cartel assassinations.
A disgraced Kaufman County magistrate appears to have been the perpetrator of the murders. The frightening thing is that, with the porous southern border, these assassinations could easily have been carried out by Mexican murder squads that could walk across the border in broad daylight.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has reported Mexican cartels are currently setting up shop in American cities, controlling wholesale drug distribution across the nation.
The question is, when will these Mexican Narco terrorists, many of whom were trained by U.S. special forces, bring their grisly brand of violence to the main streets of America?

“Hope and change” has been replaced with an ethos of cynicism and duplicity.
With the election of her husband, Michelle Obama said, “For the first time in my life, I am proud of my country.” After America has been repeatedly lied to by Obama, who falsely claimed that you could keep your doctor and your health insurance, is the first lady still proud?
Fortunately for the Obama family, they are exempt from Obamacare. Apparently the cook is too good to sit at the same table with the proletariat.
Republican attempts to remove the special carve-outs for Congress under Obamacare were blocked in a party-line vote by the Democratic majority at the time. Is there no limit to the hypocrisy of this president and the Democratic Party?
If you have employer-based insurance, get ready. The other shoe has yet to drop. When the employer mandate kicks in, millions more Americans will lose their coverage and be forced into the uncertainty of overpriced Obamacare exchanges.

It quickly became clear to me that there is a difference in the way people on the “left” think. They preach tolerance as long as they get what they want, but are viciously intolerant when they don’t.
As years of experience with Obama and Clinton has shown, deception is considered a legitimate part of doing business. There are no ethical limits when you consider yourself morally superior to others.
Young people who have been indoctrinated by the left in our schools and universities have not been taught the skill of critical thinking.

The only light in this dark room has been provided by Fox News. On critical issues, Fox is routinely excluded from White house briefings. According to White House adviser David Axelrod, “Fox is not a real news organization.” Could it be that Fox tells the American people the uncomfortable truth instead of the administration spin?

Did Obama kill Osama? No. If not for the ground work of George Bush and Dick Cheney, Osama bin Laden could have been living in Trump Tower and the Obama administration wouldn’t have had a clue.
Our brave Navy SEALs using information obtained from enhanced interrogation techniques and the polices of Bush/Cheney lead us to bin Laden. While the single greatest accomplishment of Obama is to take credit for the work of someone else.
You can’t have it both ways. If you’re going to blame everything on “eight years of Bush,” you have to give him credit for the demise of bin Laden too.

What’s that you say — “forgive them, for they know not what they do”? Aha, but there is silver to be made by joining the “dark side,” and it doesn’t get any darker than the loony-left Huffington Post. Humm, do I smell the king of the loons George Soros lurking somewhere behind this?
It would appear AOL has sold itself to a new master to pump up the bank account at the expense of its soul — a perfect example of unbridled capitalism lacking a shred of moral fiber

Hiding behind well-financed front organizations, this Judas, who as a youth during World War II assisted in confiscating property of fellow Jews (as revealed in a 1998 "60 Minutes" interview), hides his nefarious financial empire offshore to avoid the scrutiny of U.S. financial regulators.
He will use any means necessary to reshape the world in his own twisted, left-wing image.
With billions of dollars and insidious fifth-column maneuverings, Soros is attempting to encircle independent media outlets and replace the truth with his progressive "one world" dogma. What happens to those who stray from Soros' path? Ask Juan Williams, formerly of National Public Radio.
Using mouthpieces like the Huffington Post, Soros is relentlessly moving toward the destruction of our core American values.
Unfortunately, Mr. Soros has run into a problem; fearlessly, Glenn Beck of Fox News is exposing this elitist socialist in his insidious plot to reshape our nation and the world in his own distorted, godless image.
If Mr. Soros is successful in his endeavor, hopefully we will receive better treatment than he gave his fellow Hungarian Jews 65 years ago.

Senator Bruce is part of the established political elite of Reno County, a “good old boy" whose ilk has run this town and state far too long. He has attained membership in the most exclusive club in Kansas, our Senate and will likely remain there because of the apathy of voters who are content to elect party operators who spend more time looking out for their political home boys then the citizens who elected them.
With the likely ascendance of Sam Brownback to the governorship I'm sure Mr. Bruce will make a lovely addition to the new governor's rubber stamp collection.

Aided and abetted by attorneys who specialize in calculated character assassination and myriad well-intentioned church and social organizations, a silent atrocity is being perpetrated against innocent Americans who have naively married a foreign national.
Without hesitation, your home, job and standing in the community will be sacrificed in order to maintain their visa status. Your rights as an American citizen have become secondary in the new world order of political correctness.
Are all such marriages fraudulent? Of course not, but if you are marrying a foreign national beware, you are placing yourself in a high-risk category .

By the thousands, Kansans are labeled "abusers" by those who have a vested interest in misrepresenting the truth. Unscrupulous attorneys shamelessly manipulate protection from abuse rules for financial gain while masquerading under the color of law.
Even more disturbing is that our judiciary will stand idly by as false claims of abuse are taken at face value. With a wink and a nod, the reputations of Kansans are being destroyed in a quasi-legal process with standards akin to the Salem witch hunts.
Why is this disgrace allowed to continue? Because most legislators are attorneys, guaranteeing themselves continued profits at the expense of honest folks in what has become a corrupt money making scam called "divorce.

Evidently Arizona citizens aren't capable of handling their problems without help from George Soros of the Open Society Institute and his crowd. As left-wing fascism strikes at the heart of our nation, heroes like Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County, Arizona, stand firm in the face of provocation by radical left-wing organizations like the Service Employees International Union.
These barbarians are no longer at the gate. They have metastasized into the body politic of our sleeping nation.
With insidious deliberation, we are being devoured from within by forces alien to our Constitution who are replacing our beliefs with their distorted progressive dogma. We must be aware, we must resist, or we will lose all that we value.

With his impromptu style, Mr. Beck makes the toes of the neo-Marxist Obama administration curl like the Wicked Witch of the East in Munchkin Land. The closest thing the left can muster is Keith Olbermann of MSNBC. If he's the best you can do, all hands abandon ship. Um ... is that Barney Frank boarding that life boat?
Remember, if you repeat the truth over and over again someone will believe it. This is why the Obama administration hates Mr. Beck and Fox News with a passion

The fact is, Obama is all fluff and very little substance. It’s unfortunate that some liberals in this country swoon every time they see his face and fail to realize it’s backed by a head filled with tried and failed left wing policies as old as Karl Heinrich Marx.
Down the road to oblivion we travel, with the belief that Obama’s pretty face and glib syntax are going to save us from something.

As a lifelong Republican, I can only express my disappointment in the Republican Party. From president to dogcatcher, the Republican Party has failed its constituency. What a bunch "we the people" placed in power! Of all the problems wrought by my party of choice, the biggest disappointment is Sen. Sam Brownback. I remember shaking hands with the incumbent senator in front of Wal-Mart years ago, and the elation I felt with his election.
Now, all I see is a politician pandering to an increasing population of illegal aliens in the hope of garnishing votes at the expense and welfare of his fellow citizens. This is a man who took his Washington phones off line during a vote on "immigration reform" to thwart the outcry of fellow Kansans to vote against what amounted to amnesty for people who entered our great nation through illegal means.
In my view, Brownback has placed the status and welfare of foreign nationals above his own country men and women and has begun embracing positions of groups that were once referred to as the "loony left." We see in Brownback a disturbing thing that happens to many politicians who have held office too long: They forget they hold office to serve their constituents, not their own re-election.
To paraphrase Al Gore, it's time for him to go.

How many of you have read sworn court transcripts listing you as present in court, when you were home in bed? I have. All of our jurists are of the highest character, or are they? I guess the question is have enough citizens of Reno County seen the dark side of our legal/judicial system as it works on an everyday basis? If you haven't, you may be in for a surprise.
Here is good news. We don't need a revolution or revolt to change this system. The founders of our nation have given us all the tools we need to effect change. Go to the polls and vote. With a little involvement we can make our community a better place to live.

This predator has one goal, to gain entry into the United States by marrying an American citizen. Once this objective is accomplished, you have served your purpose. You will be discarded like a rag. Be assured this predator is not alone. He or she will have access to attorneys who specialize in distorting the intent of our legal system.
No matter how unethical, they will get the job done. The predator, through legal maneuvering, is now transformed into a "victim"

As the day draws to a close, I wish I had told this nice decent person how much I loved him and how much I will miss him.
In my mind's eye, I will see and say hi to this dear man the rest of my life as I walk the path to my home. I will always see him sitting on that porch.
Sleep in silence, dear soul; you have left your troubled world behind. With God's grace, may you lie down beside the still waters and find the peace that eluded you in this life.

| Our Nation is in deep peril. We are in a fight for our survival as a Constitutional Republic like no other time since our founding in 1776. The conflict is between supporters of Socialism and Marxism vs. supporters of Constitutional freedom and liberty. During the 2020 election an “Open Letter from Senior Military Leaders” was signed by 317 retired Generals and Admirals and, it said the 2020 election could be the most important election since our country was founded. “With the Democrat Party welcoming Socialists and Marxists, our historic way of life is at stake.” Unfortunately, that statement’s truth was quickly revealed, beginning with the election process itself. Without fair and honest elections that accurately reflect the “will of the people” our Constitutional Republic is lost. Election integrity demands insuring there is one legal vote cast and counted per citizen. Legal votes are identified by State Legislature’s approved controls using government IDs, verified signatures, etc. Today, many are calling such commonsense controls “racist” in an attempt to avoid having fair and honest elections. Using racial terms to suppress proof of eligibility is itself a tyrannical intimidation tactic. Additionally, the “Rule of Law” must be enforced in our election processes to ensure integrity. The FBI and Supreme Court must act swiftly when election irregularities are surfaced and not ignore them as was done in 2020. Finally, H.R.1 & S.1, (if passed), would destroy election fairness and allow Democrats to forever remain in power violating our Constitution and ending our Representative Republic. Aside from the election, the Current Administration has launched a full-blown assault on our Constitutional rights in a dictatorial manner, bypassing the Congress, with more than 50 Executive Orders quickly signed, many reversing the previous Administration’s effective policies and regulations. Moreover, population control actions such as excessive lockdowns, school and business closures, and most alarming, censorship of written and verbal expression are all direct assaults on our fundamental Rights. We must support and hold accountable politicians who will act to counter Socialism, Marxism and Progressivism, support our Constitutional Republic, and insist on fiscally responsible governing while focusing on all Americans, especially the middle class, not special interest or extremist groups which are used to divide us into warring factions. Additional National Security Issues and Actions: • Open borders jeopardize national security by increasing human trafficking, drug cartels, terrorists entry, health/CV19 dangers, and humanitarian crises. Illegals are flooding our Country bringing high economic costs, crime, lowering wages, and illegal voting in some states. We must reestablish border controls and continue building the wall while supporting our dedicated border control personnel. Sovereign nations must have controlled borders. • China is the greatest external threat to America. Establishing cooperative relations with the Chinese Communist Party emboldens them to continue progress toward world domination, militarily, economically, politically and technologically. We must impose more sanctions and restrictions to impede their world domination goal and protect America’s interests. • The free flow of information is critical to the security of our Republic, as illustrated by freedom of speech and the press being in the 1st Amendment of our Constitution. Censoring speech and expression, distorting speech, spreading disinformation by government officials, private entities, and the media is a method to suppress the free flow of information, a tyrannical technique used in closed societies. We must counter this on all fronts beginning with removing Section 230 protection from big tech. • Re-engaging in the flawed Iran Nuclear Deal would result in Iran acquiring nuclear weapons along with the means to deliver them, thereby upsetting Mideast peace initiatives and aiding a terrorist nation whose slogans and goals include “death to America” and “death to Israel” . We must resist the new China/Iran agreement and not support the Iran Nuclear Deal. In addition, continue with the Mideast peace initiatives, the “Abraham Accords,” and support for Israel. • Stopping the Keystone Pipeline eliminates our recently established energy independence and causes us to be energy dependent on nations not friendly to us, while eliminating valuable US jobs. We must open the Keystone Pipeline and regain our energy independence for national security and economic reasons. • Using the U.S. military as political pawns with thousands of troops deployed around the U.S. Capitol Building, patrolling fences guarding against a non-existent threat, along with forcing Politically Correct policies like the divisive critical race theory into the military at the expense of the War Fighting Mission, seriously degrades readiness to fight and win our Nation’s wars, creating a major national security issue. We must support our Military and Vets; focus on war fighting, eliminate the corrosive infusion of Political Correctness into our military which damages morale and war fighting cohesion. • The “Rule of Law” is fundamental to our Republic and security. Anarchy as seen in certain cities cannot be tolerated. We must support our law enforcement personnel and insist that DAs, our courts, and the DOJ enforce the law equally, fairly, and consistently toward all. • The mental and physical condition of the Commander in Chief cannot be ignored. He must be able to quickly make accurate national security decisions involving life and limb anywhere, day or night. Recent Democrat leadership’s inquiries about nuclear code procedures sends a dangerous national security signal to nuclear armed adversaries, raising the question about who is in charge. We must always have an unquestionable chain of command. Under a Democrat Congress and the Current Administration, our Country has taken a hard left turn toward Socialism and a Marxist form of tyrannical government which must be countered now by electing congressional and presidential candidates who will always act to defend our Constitutional Republic. The survival of our Nation and its cherished freedoms, liberty, and historic values are at stake. We urge all citizens to get involved now at the local, state and/or national level to elect political representatives who will act to Save America, our Constitutional Republic, and hold those currently in office accountable. The “will of the people” must be heard and followed. |
