We are TRULY living in a Bleak House!
I’ve been waffling about continuing my writing. I quit writing several months ago because I saw the futility in opening minds. I realized that indoctrination and programming were too deeply ingrained, moving the improbability marker to 9.8 out of 10, meaning that any chance of success was extremely low. But being an optimist… you know the rest.
My only hope is that somewhere in the 330 million people in America, or nearly eight billion people in the world, there may be a few willing to consider a disparate opinion, or diverse point of view.
Maybe I could reach a few curious minds.
Or am I deluded?
Am I alone, facing this daunting task and dilemma?
I feel like I’m pissing on a forest fire, hoping to put it out, or into the ocean expecting an appreciable rise in the level. Continue reading
It should be obvious by now to anyone with half a brain that the Biden regime’s plan for America is one that calls for the destruction of America as we know it. With all that has gone on in this country since Biden “won” the 2020 election this should hardly be news.
If a belligerent state launched 185 explosive drones, 36 cruise missiles and 110 surface-to-surface missiles from three fronts against civilian targets within the United States, would President Joe Biden call it a “win”?
It is my right to be uncommon… if I can; I seek opportunity…not security. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me. I want to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed. I refuse to barter incentive for a dole. I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence; the thrill of fulfillment to the stole calm of utopia. I will not trade freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout. I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat. It is my heritage to stand erect, proud, and unafraid; to think and act for myself; enjoy the benefits of my creations and to face the world boldly and say, – This I have done, and this is what it means to be an American.
House Speaker Mike Johnson may not last long. He quickly went from MAGA to swampy morass. Instead of sending money to close our southern border, he wants even more billions of tax dollars sent to the lost cause that is Ukraine. 
Not unlike the famed tree of Shel Silverstein’s divisive children’s book, teachers don’t have much left to give. Operating in a infamously demanding and poorly paid sector, many educators have reached a breaking point over the last couple of years as they navigate an increasingly broadening workload. 
Abortion may still be front and center in the power struggle between the Left and the Right over who has the right to decide – the government or the individual – when it comes to bodily autonomy, the right to privacy, sexual freedom, the rights of the unborn, and property interests in one’s body, but there’s so much more at play.
Number of Chinese nationals who crossed the border illegally in FY 2024 already surpassed the total number apprehended in the entire prior year
This historical parallel from the Roman Empire is the perfect analogy to the situation today – the US appears far weaker than it was even just a few years ago. And that has some pretty substantial implications for the future.]
It will beg, steal or borrow if necessary, but it wants your money any way it can get it.
Saw an item on Fox News this morning about someone on the terror watchlist having been caught. You might be tempted to think that this is an example of the government doing its job and protecting American citizens. If you thought that you’d be dead wrong. Turns out, this particular individual on the terror watchlist had already been caught twice before.
Back on the 2020 campaign trail, one of the big promises Joe Biden made was that he would keep the United States out of wasteful wars that only serve to prop up the military industrial complex and cause mayhem all across the globe. 
Quite often Americans hear that the U.S. has a “melting-pot” environment that encourages the assimilation of Muslims. However, more often the facts show an entirely different situation. New immigrants and second generation Muslims are becoming more isolated, largely due to the multi-culturalist policies and agendas put in place by the Marxist-Maoists of the Obama administration that continued through Trump’s term and into the Biden regime. An increasing number of young Muslims are attending Islamic schools and lectures sponsored by mosques with a “radical” fundamental Islamic agenda, or U.S. universities with radical professors who actually encourage Islamic anti-American activities and terrorism against America.
The human mind is a fascinating organ. Aside from being the control center for the body that houses it, it is because of our ability to think that we have cars, airplanes, computers, and all the other gadgets and gizmos that make our day-to-day lives easier. That is why I find it so bewildering that people are not able to look at the issues that face us with the same critical thinking skills that have given us all these technological advancements. The thing is, I shouldn’t find it bewildering; I too was just like that; until I freed my mind of the shackles of its ignorance and taught it how to think critically. 
Government censorship has shifted to the forefront of American conversation with the recent passing of H.R. 752, which would essentially ban TikTok; this development, which has passed the House and is on its way to the Senate, is igniting debating on how much involvement the government should have in social media.
A week after the Biden administration’s 
About 200,000 deportation cases have been thrown out by immigration judges, according to a new report published by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse.
This is what everyone was worried would happen. War just seems inevitable.
