The real meaning of the various events of January 6, 2021 is not yet fully apparent to most Americans. But it’s getting there. As sure as the sun comes up in the morning America is waking up to the truth about that day despite every desperate, heavy-handed, pathologically dishonest tactic the enemies of freedom are using to squelch it.

Who are the enemies of freedom? To paraphrase Justice Potter Stewart, you know them when you see them. Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and AOC lead the charge in covering up the Deep Police-State role in the so-called Insurrection, but freedom’s enemies are myriad operators just as venal as they are, though far more subtle. Some wear the cloak of the opposition, like a Mitt Romney for example, but in their lust for power they work just as certainly to undermine the best interests of the country and its citizens.

Satan wears many disguises, and of course, the devil is in the details. This phenomenon comes out in many ways often betrayed most plainly by language – the Affordable Care Act, for example, is anything but. In the hands of the enemies within, the Justice Department – including the federal police agencies such as the ATF, the FBI, the CIA, and the NSA – become cudgels against honest citizens rather than their protectors. Add to that list now, the Capitol Police. There’s hardly any justice in all that.

What we are witnessing today – rising inflation, abject humiliation before the world in Afghanistan, chaos on the southern border, rising crime, and short energy supplies to name a few of the issues that have become critical since the Biden Junta took office – is the culmination of nearly a century-long push by the enemies of America to bring it down from within.

When you honestly exam the videos and testimony – to the extent we’re allowed to see either one – it becomes clear that the events among the mob of January 6 were a fracas, not an insurrection. It’s like having kids in the back seat of your car who suddenly erupt into a brawl. You cannot identify who started it, so you punish all of them just to get quiet. Justice is not served, only a tenuous peace.

The fact is, despite Speaker Pelosi’s campaign to make the fracas in the Capitol the focal point of public attention, the mob events were just a sideshow. The real insurrection was the stealing of an election and that backseat fracas was simply used as a distraction from the real injustice – the certification of the Electoral College results. Technically they gave Biden the presidency but they were based on faulty data. Everyone knew it but no one could or would do anything about it thanks to compromised judges, amoral attorneys, and diabolical politicians. Thus, from the moment the vote was certified, America became an occupied country.

President Trump was right to blame Vice President Mike Pence for failing the American people in this moment. He, along with other good, basically honest servants of the people like Senators Marsha Blackburn and Bill Hagerty, and even Kentucky’s Rand Paul, were so horrified by the fracas that they lost their nerve and voted for peace rather than justice. They have been going out of their way to prove their conservative bona fides to anyone who will point a video camera at them ever since. Conservative though they may be, they faltered when America needed them most. They were the last bulwark against a stolen election.

So now we are seeing the results of their failure. We have an imbecile propped up as President. The country is being ruled by committee. The decisions being made are so bad that many wonder if they are intentional, designed to bring America down. And nothing epitomizes the Biden Junta’s dereliction of duty more clearly than their botched withdrawal from Aghanistan leaving thousands of Americans trapped behind enemy lines.

So the question that is the title of this piece hangs over the country now like the sword of Damocles. The Biden Junta has in just half a year changed the trajectory of the country so radically that if it is not changed back just as radically and quickly, it may never be corrected. Once inflation wrecks the economy, once our enemies know just how weak we are, once civil unrest has been unleashed in the biggest melting pot ever assembled since Babel, how soon is it before we have reached the point of no return?

Perhaps that point was actually reached on January 6. If real Americans to do not stand up now, push back against the encroachments on their civil liberties and the Constitution in everything from arbitrary “health” mandates to voter ID, we will never know. But America may end up like one more headstone at Arlington.

America has become like the woman in the old Dick Feller song. Her husband thinks he’s a chicken. But she adapts. “He don’t eat much, just chickenfeed,” she says, “and all that peckin’ in the ground don’t hurt nothin’… Heaven knows, we can use the eggs.”

If you don’t get the irony, then you probably believe the Democrats won the presidency and a deadlocked Senate, that January 6th was an insurrection by domestic terrorists, that Joe Biden is not just a corrupt, senile old politician that the enemies of state have propped up as a figurehead, that open borders and H.R. 1 are about civil rights, that the abandonment of Afgahnistan wasn’t the biggest botch since Jimmy Carter’s helicopters crashed in the desert, and that O.J. is gonna find the real killer some day.

But don’t make waves. There are eggs aplenty. For now.

With apologies to Johnny Paycheck and David Allen Coe. It’s not the so-called unvaccinated who are saying, “Take this jab and shove it.” Those who have chosen not to take the Wuhan Virus shots each have their own reasons. It’s their damn business, not yours nor the government’s. Contrary to their sloppy propaganda, taking the shots has nothing to do with transmitting the disease. Whether you take the shots or not, you can get the virus just the same and pass it on to the next person.

Rather, it is the Biden Junta complicit with rabid health administration authorities who are saying, “Take this jab and shove it.” In other words, You, simple citizen, take the shots whether they are known to be safe or not, whether they are manifesting thousands upon thousands of cases of adverse reactions or not, whether they cause blood clots or interfere with women’s reproductive health or not, whether the FDA has approved them or not.

In other other words, if you have a personal, private objection to getting the shots, shove it.

It’s the same process going on in the courts. Do you bring a legitimate cause of action questioning the legitimacy of the 2020 federal elections? Too bad. The court decides in legal terms that you have no standing. In other words, “no standing” means shut up and sit down.

Silencing critics is the primary characteristic of totalitarian regimes. It is exactly why freedom of speech is the primary building block of the Bill of Rights. Just ask the Uyghurs in China. Their plight is eloquently depicted by the photograph above from this week’s cover of World magazine. It is a Uyghur protester wearing, ironically, a mask. In China, they don’t just silence contrary speech on social media. They put dissenters in concentration camps. Nor do they stop short of murdering their opponents. The numbers are big.

The Biden Junta, their enablers and the silent complicit, seem to admire China’s model. Already they talk of social credit scoring along with the mask mandates and vaccine passports. They are using fear to force consent.

As Ben Franklin warned, those who will give up freedom for security deserve neither. It is our duty as an American citizens not to shut up and not to sit down for this.

Whatever the majority of health authorities and politicians are telling you to do, do the opposite and you’ll most likely be better off.

Of course, you may draw the short straw and nothing will stop the Wuhan virus from killing you. But even among the target population, even those who haven’t taken the so-called vaccine, that eventuality is rare.

No sane person is 100% against vaccines. True vaccines. Long before Salk perfected the polio vaccine, the human race had figured out that taking a bit of the poison could create antibodies in your bloodstream to fight the full poison. This saved countless lives even before Salk for a variety of viral scourges. The science that perfected true vaccines, tested over years and thousands upon thousands of animals and humans, was a medical achievement rivaled only by the perfection of antibiotics.

But what they’re calling vaccines today are not vaccines a la the polio vaccine. The “vaccines” being pushed for the Wuhan virus do not create an immunity. They are an injected palliative designed to soften the symptoms and thus to reduce the chance of hospitalization or death.

So if you’re past child-bearing age, if you have diabetes or other have other conditions that compromise your health, by all means, take the shots. At a certain age for us older folks, it’s here today, gone tomorrow anyway, right? The chance of a bad virus outcome outweighs the chance of a bad “vaccine” outcome.

But for the young, the healthy, and especially for those still of child-bearing age, taking the shots is a gamble. Many individuals have suffered awful side effects, even died from side effects of the shots. It is an open question whether the way some of the shots alter your RNA has long term consequences. There is good reason these “vaccines” are not FDA approved. The studies that have been done on them were rushed, limited, and financially and politically compromised. For Heaven’s sake, until years of study have been conducted, they should not be foisted on children. If the adverse reactions and deaths that have resulted from the current “vaccines” were evidenced in real vaccines, they would have been pulled from the market immediately.

There is even a school of thought that considers it a legitimate risk that by reducing symptoms in the healthy, the shots actually encourage spread of the virus. There is another school of thought that suggests the vaccines may encourage mutations of the virus. The millions who have already had the virus have natural immunity and the shots may actually interfere with that. These are reasonable concerns. Shouldn’t decisions about universal “vaccination” be delayed until true, long-term studies have been conducted?

Of course.

But meantime, the constant corporate and government drumbeat is: Get the shots. And worse, the lie is promulgated that the shots stop the spread of the disease. They don’t. The “vaccinated” people who get the virus are called “breakthrough” cases, as if they were exceptional. They are not. They just happened to get tested even though they had no or mild symptoms. The shots do not stop the virus. You do not protect anyone else by getting the shots. You do it for the sake of your own health only.

The health administration and political figures who had the hubris to think they could defeat the virus ordered lockdowns, shutdowns, mask-wearing, school closings, quarantines, and social isolation. These policies have all been shown to be boneheaded. The vulnerable should have been protected and the virus allowed to sweep through the population, going the way all viruses do. Yet the same boneheads now want to mandate the shots, impose vaccine passports, and make kids go back to wearing the suffocating masks in school.

If you get all your news from NPR, ABC Radio News, etc, or God forbid, your “smart” phone, turn them all off. You’ve heard enough of that b.s. by now. Take a listen instead to the forbidden, cancelled voices. Though sometimes wrong, they can’t be more wrong than the official boneheads. Use your discernment to size up what’s right for you.

And whatever the medical Mussolinis of this world are telling you, take it with a grain of salt. And maybe a grain of zinc, vitamin D, hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin or whatever a good doctor whom you know and trust recommends.

Perhaps the saddest revelation to come out of the Wuhan Virus Damnpanic is just how gullible, dense, and skittish we Americans can be.

Franklin Roosevelt, the icon of the big government, welfare state Democratic Party, rightly said, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” He was trying to rally the American people to fight the first war he waged, against the Depression, a disastrous campaign which was only won on a scratch thanks to the next war, a real war against the fascist socialist Adolf Hitler. FDR’s fearless leadership won that war brilliantly.

But today, fear is not banished but is the banner of a feckless, fractious movement led by FDR’s own party. Already, just when America and the world have had a taste of normal life, the political hacks are whipping up the fear again with a new fake “pandemic of the unvaccinated.” This, even though there is no vaccine, just an injected palliative that does not stop the spread of the virus at all. The big push begins again for more child abuse in the form of children forced to wear masks and incited to fear their friends and neighbors and even family – if “unvaccinated.” Vaccine mandates have started and vaccine passports are sure to come. It is a sad, sad time for freedom.

Questioning the authorities ist streng verboten! Do dat vich you are told or ve vill send you to zee reeducation camp! Just try to post a dissenting opinion in a conspicuous place on a big tech social media platform.

But… the subject is defunding the police. Anyone, everyone knows this is one very stupid idea, but few dare admit it in this environment. And yet right now those of us who value freedom – and security – must not let all the nonsense going on with the virus distract us from what the central powers, the Deep State, the Swamp, the freak show known as the Biden Administration – call them what you will – are doing to the American justice system.

Barack Obama let their plans slip way back in 2008, in a July 2nd speech in which he called for a “civilian national security force, that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded” as the military. Here’s a question to ponder: Isn’t it odd that the FBI and the ATF and other federal law enforcement agencies never have a single questionable episode that makes the national news like the death of George Floyd? Can it be that they never abuse their power? Might it be that federal cops’ reputations are being protected while local law enforcement is being hung out to dry? That’s just one line of questioning. If you have a curious mind, you will find many more of your own.

And question this, too, because the success of our republic has come from discourse and debate, not acquiescence: Unless something big happens, and happens fast, this country is on an inexorable slide into tyranny and despair. The denigration, diminishment, and defunding of local policing will come at the expense of local control and will usher in a national police state.

Odds are, if you really think it through, you will know that it is time to push back. Fear is not our friend, whether avoiding the virus or fighting the bastards that would take this country to its knees. Free men and women willing to stand up to tyranny are what it will take to win this country back from within and thus save it from its enemies without.

Take it from ol’ F.D. Arra.

The abortion cartel is in a bad way. Decades after Roe v. Wade, their cause has only lost ground. Despite millions spent with Planned Parenthood and an all-out war to convince women that abortion is a right, abortion still has a stench, a stigma, a bad aftertaste in the Kool-Aid they’ve been serving up. The thing is that abortion, even if you call it pro-choice, is simply killing babies. Everyone knows it. The mental health damage inflicted on millions of mothers is a bottomless pit of screaming, crying, abandoned souls whose lives were snuffed out by mad-scientist surgeons’ scalpels and chemical mutilation.

Whether religious or not, every woman comes to know that abortion is a sin, tragically too late in many cases. But God is merciful. He understands that Mammon misled the aborting mothers. May every such woman work through the misery and find forgiveness in herself, for God has forgiven her already.

Mammon was at work again in the 2020 presidential and senatorial elections. No matter how the leftist cartel, whether personified by the DNC or the Never-Trumpers among the Republican elite, tries to recast the election as legitimate via social media censorship, mainstream media mockery, or Justice Department malfeasance, every conscious citizen knows that the supposed outcome stinks to high Heaven. What we have been delivered, like the suddenly barren and heartsick woman after her baby is stolen from her, is a stillborn presidency.

It will take years to get past this breakdown of democracy. Reconciliation may never happen before the whole contraption implodes. See, the consequences are that the kids we all hated in elementary school have taken over, the ones who the teacher put up front when she had to run to the restroom. They have no respect. They have no friends. They have only the power of the snitch.

It may take America at large a while to figure it all out, but ultimately, just as America has figured out that abortion is nothing more nor less than killing babies, America will figure out that the Chinese virus drill staged by the leftists to take power from the people is nothing more, and nothing less, than a stolen election. They’ve thrown the sanctity of the vote out with the bathwater. It is every American’s duty to try to save that drowning baby now.

Flattening the curve was the first and biggest lie of all. Once the American public had swallowed that, it was nothing to scare the whole world with further, more byzantine and devastating lies. Like that the virus came out of a meat market. Or that the huge explosion of mortality numbers weren’t doctored to include deaths totally unrelated to the virus. Or that social distancing and shutdowns and quarantines and mask mandates did a damn bit of good to stop a virus that was rampant already long before we knew what was happening.

In the words of Willie Stark, you’re suckers. We’ve all been taken for suckers. We’ve been told the big lies and still we want to believe them. That the Delta variant is a real thing. That there were virtually no deaths from the flu in 2020. That these vaccines – a magnificent achievement in concept and execution thanks to the efficiency of the Trump administration – should be administered to everybody, even the young and healthy who have almost no mortal threat from the virus but most definitely are threatened by the vaccines. Over 6,000 deaths associated with the vaccines already, and hundreds of thousands of E.R. visits and hospitalizations. Yet those real numbers are ignored and as vaccine enthusiasm wanes, new imaginary threats are invented.

For decades now the left has mocked anyone who doubted their wild and unproven claims about global warming, overpopulation, peak oil, et al as flat-earthers. Yet now they are the ones who want us to believe that there is no such thing as biological sexes. That parents should not be in charge of their children’s values, discipline, and health choices. That China is our friend. That Trump was not re-elected in November. That the January 6 debacle was an insurrection. That Hunter Biden is an artist. That black citizens are any less capable of getting valid I.D. than anyone else. That illegal immigrants are streaming across the border because of Democrat Party’s compassion.

If you believe anything at face value that is coming from the Biden administration, the W.H.O, the C.D.C, the F.B.I, the U.N., the C.I.A. or any of the other alphabet soup of government agencies – and for that matter, Alphabet Inc. or any of the other globalist corporations – you, my friend, are a Flat-Earther.

And it all got kicked off with a lie about flattening the curve. It was indeed flattening the curve – the curve of the earth. Be careful you don’t fall off the edge.

District Attorneys are generally the lowest low-lifes of the legal community. DA’s invented the concept of virtue signalling. Given a little power and waving a flag of “justice” they have a long history of fabricated evidence, withheld exculpatory evidence, media manipulation, and grandstanding, all in the name of furthering their political careers, not real justice. They couldn’t care less about guilt and innocence, only winning. Glenn Funk is the poster child for the type.

His charging of Andrew Delke with first degree murder in the 2018 killing of Daniel Hambrick is the ironic high point of Funk’s disgusting career. Metro cop Delke stopped Hambrick, who had outstanding warrants and fled with a gun in his hand. Hambrick ignored all orders to stop and was apparently shown on video to be in the act of turning to shoot at Delke, when Delke took him out.

Faced with withering pressure from the DA and acutely aware of the mob mentality affecting the George Floyd case, Delke took a plea deal. He will spend at least a year and a half in prison for manslaughter just because he did his job protecting Nashville citizens from an armed felon on the loose. The city is less safe thanks to Glenn Funk’s mishandling of “justice” in this case. Every cop is on notice now that the legal system is out to get them and every miscreant knows the cops have got to pull their punches to protect their own freedom.

Delke has acted heroically. He stood up in court and took full responsibility for the death of Daniel Hambrick with a steady voice and a clear conscience. What has been lost along the way is that Daniel Hambrick is in fact responsible for his own death. His previous crimes are what put him in harm’s way. His ignoring lawful orders and brandishing a pistol amid the chaos of flight and pursuit made it impossible for Andrew Delke to make any other decision. But the media have mostly focused on Hambrick’s mother’s profane and violent outburst in court when the plea deal was accepted. Judge Monte Watkins, if he had any sense of justice and cojones, should have put her in jail for contempt of court and refused to accept Funk’s plea deal with Delke.

Glenn Funk is himself a low-life as low as Daniel Hambrick, but he is no dummy. He knew by charging Delke with first degree murder he would gain cred with the race-baiting mob. He should be ashamed of himself. Nashville’s rising murder rate is to a great extent on him.

This comment from Donald Trump in 2015 was directed at his political rival, the late Sen. John McCain, to devastating effect. McCain had made his career on the fact that he was shot down and captured by the Viet Cong, spending months in a North Vietnamese prison camp under awful conditions. His experience, which by any normal standard was heroic, served as a shield against political criticism. You can’t go up against John McCain, the conventional wisdom was, he’s a war hero. That mode of thinking blazed the trail for McCain to rise through the party ranks to serve as the Republican candidate for president in the 2008 election against Barack Obama. He was a disaster as a candidate.

Despite his failure taking on Obama, McCain attempted to position himself as elder statesman, calling the shots for the Republican elite. Trump popped that bubble. He revealed McCain’s pretense. McCain spent the rest of his life trying to spite Trump, even preventing the dissolution of Obamacare in his bitterness.

As for Trump, his comment neutralized a political foe but just added fuel to the fire of criticism that he was an oaf, coarse, ham-handed, and unfit to lead. The problem for the critics who find him so offensive, however, is that he did lead. Trump is full of bluster but behind the big rhetoric is real accomplishment – a secure border, strong economy, strengthened military, huge strides for peace in the Middle East, et al. This kind of apostasy the political elite cannot stand. Merit is not the name of the game in American politics any more, only networking, posturing, and duplicity rule the day. Thus Trump was snuffed out. If you believe the 2020 election legitimately elected Biden as president, you are either ignorant or a chump, or both.

But that’s not the point here. Trump’s seemingly unforgivable comment about John McCain is the point. For the real message behind Trump’s zinger was that success, not failure, defines the greatness of America.

In a Biden world, on the other hand, we live in a universe of losers: Creepy men who invade girls’ sports and bathrooms and creepy perverts who cross-dress and act out their miserable dysfunction for all to see while forcing the world of mentally healthy people to call it normal. Minority “leaders” who wallow in victimhood – and point the finger at ghosts of the past as their oppressors – while completely ignoring the huge strides in social progress in America over our history. Leftists who continue to try to apply the Marxist folly to real life, which over and over has proved that it just does not work with human nature and always, always results in tyranny and violence.

So, what are we going to have? Will we be defined by isolated shortcomings of our past or the brightness of our future? Are we as a people, as a country, going to be captured by negative thinking, fear, and our own sinfulness? Or are we going to throw off the bondage of weakness and be strong? With all the Lilliputians of the left each tying us down while we sleep, it will not be so easy to get back up again. But get back up we must. “Captured” is no way to live.

Signs of age are starting to show on the faithful friend. Seems like just yesterday he showed up as a puppy. It is a bittersweet thing to notice.

If you’re lucky, you have a lifetime of being cared for by dogs. With each one, you learn more about what they need to have happy days, which is all a dog should ever have. God’s word says that man has dominion over the animals. There is nothing like a dog to teach one how to take that stewardship seriously. For a dog to serve you best, you must serve him best. As you learn this, each dog you have will be the best dog you’ve ever had. Funny how that works.

Favorite saying: “The chief difference between man and dog is that dog won’t bite the hand that feeds it.” That’s the short version of one of Twain’s gems. Real life corollary: “Once you mistreat an old dog badly enough, don’t expect him to come when you whistle.” Dogs are all about love, and loyalty, and having your back. But even an old dog will guard his dignity.

Most of all, dogs have true love to offer. Saint Paul ranks love at the top of God’s gifts. God is love. And Dog, if you’ve never noticed, is God spelled backwards. Be kind to your old dog. He is your most direct link to Heaven.
