America’s Reckoning With Reality

The Republican and Democratic National Conventions, always heavy on glamor and light on substance, are over. It’s time to move beyond sloganeering and address reality.

In the United States, the price of food is up 21 percent in three years. Thirty-year mortgage rates were 3.7 percent; they are now 7 percent. Rents are skyrocketing, car loan delinquencies are rising and, last year, there were at least 150,000 reports of American children going missing in what is becoming a child-trafficking emergency.

Millions of Americans think that our society is experiencing a moral collapse. Divorce is widespread, single parents struggle to raise children, drug abuse is rampant, suicide rates are high, and the rule of law is collapsing across the country.

Is it really a surprise that Americans doubt their institutions, their courts, even the leadership of their own armed forces? Americans feel disconnected from their collective, national identity. Shamed into isolation and self-hatred under the oppressive weight of mass-media, pop-culture, and official deceit, Americans feel helpless to stop their freefall into nihilism—the belief in nothing, not justice or beauty, no divine influence, just nothing.  

Americans feel like their homeland is being transformed into a wasteland. More and more Americans think that taxation without representation is the norm in all 50 states, not just in DC. Voting for one or another of the major parties, Democrats or Republicans, does little to arrest the nation’s descent into chaos.

What does Washington’s ruling political class of so-called Democrats and Republicans, hereafter referred to as the Uniparty, think?

Frankly, the Uniparty does not care. While American wages declined, and jobs dried up Washington’s ruling political class grew rich from insider deals and cronyism. Since January 2021, America’s 750 billionaires have increased their wealth by $1.5 trillion. Like the political figures the billionaires pick to run the government, including 5,000 political appointees, they have no “skin in the game.”

The Uniparty celebrates trashy, degenerate events like the opening ceremony for the Olympics in Paris. Americans who object to the degradation of Christianity and Western values and beliefs are dismissed as bigots, extremists, or White Christian Nationalists.

Americans want to know what is happening to their country. Americans want to know why they are living in a world where the ugly pretend to be beautiful and the beautiful are being brainwashed to think that they are ugly.

You Will Hear the Names of the Dead: The DNC in Chicago

A couple of weeks ago, I plunged into Lake Michigan. Unlike usual, the water felt warm. It was easy to run all the way in and easy to float over the waves. Montrose beach was crowded with families, pitching tents to keep out of the sun. Children played, laughed, and cried. Midwesterners who still hadn’t made it out into the sun crisped their pale shoulders. It would have been a perfectly relaxing day, but fighter jets circled above everyone’s heads — doing dives and turning every which way. Mothers plugged their children’s ears and I saw a baby wearing noise cancelling headphones.

It was the Air and Water show — an annual proud display of American military capabilities. They are the same jets that fly over the shores of Gaza, dropping bombs on families. That’s what I thought about — it was just by happen stance that we were there watching these planes as a performance rather than in Gaza as weapon of mass slaughter. The more places I travel to, the more I realize how much the world looks the same. People everywhere are really kind and generous — the only thing that separates us is if the stars align to have us born under the boot of the United States or not.

As the jets flew over our heads I felt my stomach sour. In two weeks, the Democratic National Convention would come to Chicago and it was a present opportunity to make clear the contradictions that kept me up at night. Once months and months away, the DNC was finally around the corner.

This week, members of the Democratic Party came from all parts of the country to convene in Chicago. They were coronating Kamala Harris as their presidential nominee, a woman no one really voted for. Even in the face of this blatant lack of democracy, the party members were elated to choose her. They carried signs with her husband’s name and applause erupted from the tens of thousands of people in the United Center when she declared that the United States would have the “most lethal military” in the world under her leadership. To the people well aware of the millions of people the United States killed in the last twenty years alone, her statement was a threat.

The week was marked by the obvious gaps between the people going into the United Center and the people outside of it.

There was a young woman that sat outside the exit of the Democratic National Convention on its third night reading the names of the children Israel has killed in the last ten months. She did it for hours, until her speaker battery died. She did it alone, taking care to pronounce every child’s name correctly and to say their age at the time of their murder. Without her, many of the DNC guests wouldn’t necessarily be confronted with the carnage members of their party is carrying out.

Outside the gates of the DNC I saw a young woman making sure the children of Palestine weren’t just numbers, and I saw people laughing at her for doing so. They laughed loudly and mocked her voice. They mocked the names of the dead babies. They yelled at her to leave them alone. They left the coronation ceremony livid that they had to even hear about Gaza.

That night was demoralizing, and it’s something I will remember for the rest of my life. Democrats laugh at the names of dead children. They openly refuse to let a Palestinian speak for two minutes at their four day long event. They order riot cops on people protesting a genocide. They have their parties, fundraisers, and happy hours while bodies pile up. If they really didn’t think the genocide was so bad, they wouldn’t get so mad at us for reminding them. They knew that the people they were rallying behind are cheering on mass slaughter — they’ve just weighed their fun, their careers, and their vanity against the lives of 180,000 Palestinians and decided that nothing could be more important than themselves. I don’t care what they said to me, or my friends, but I hope our faces and our presence made them feel even an ounce of discomfort. In the best case scenario, I hope they went to sleep hearing the echoes of the martyrs names. I still foolishly hope they turn a corner at some point.

The Vindman Twins Are Deep State Super Villians

The Vindman’s are case studies on the effect of toxic woke-ism on military officers. Their view of America is Big Government control of everything, bloated bureaucracies, and tyrannical suppression of free speech.

Vindman 1 (V-1) is Alex Vindman, the noisier and most obnoxious of the two. Retired as a Lieutenant Colonel after acting as a Deep State Agent and spy of Congressman Adam Schiff and within a nano-second of him monitoring a Trump phone call as an Action Officer at the White House, used it as the core fodder for the coup against Trump. Now he is making it clear, if you step out of line on social media, the Deep State will come after you.

Vindman 2 (V-2) is Yevgeny Vindman, noisy and obnoxious, is running to fill VA-7, Abigail Spanberger’s seat in Congress who is prepping for a run for Virginia Governor to make Virginia solidly blue. V-2 is already caught up in money laundering in VA-7, an artform V-1 and V-2 learned in laundering Ukraine Aid Money.

These two are trouble. They are Deep State Bulls who carry their China Shop with them, wherever they go.

RFK Annihilates the DNC and Endorses Donald Trump as Democrats Threaten Re-Education Camps

I’m not going to offer any commentary on the Democratic National Convention. I just don’t have the heart to do it, and there are plenty of pundits (like pretty much all of them) who are happy to tease out the best one-liners and most obvious lies.

Instead, I’d like to hone in on a creeping issue that’s being mostly overlooked—but first, let’s set the stage. There is no doubt that we are in an existential battle for the future of America—and now, both sides believe that they are fighting for freedom.

===BREAKING: RFK Annihilates the DNC and Endorses Donald Trump===
…but we’ll get to that in a minute.

Regarding the Democrat’s sinister rebranding of what freedom actually means, consider the gaslighting coming out of the gas-bag Hillary “Cankles” Clinton.

Looking “FORWARD!” to a radical leftist regime, the wench proclaims:

“I see the freedom to make our own decisions about our health, our lives, our loves, our families, the freedom to work with dignity and prosper, to worship as we choose or not, to speak our minds freely and honestly. I see freedom from fear and intimidation, from violence and injustice, from chaos and corruption.”

To clarify, what Clinton is saying is that under Kamala’s commie regime, we will have freedom to make our own decisions, unless the government says we can’t. We will have the freedom to worship as we want, unless the government says we can’t. We will have the freedom to speak our minds, unless the government says we can’t.

I’m sure you get the point.

As far as her vision of the American people enjoying freedom from violence, injustice, chaos, and corruption, well, that’s just a flat out lie. Quite the opposite, it is the intentional unleashing of violence, the outrageous degree of injustice, the orchestrated chaos, and the predictable assembly line corruption that is meant to intimidate and strike fear in the hearts of American patriots.

As you well know, this is how Marxists operate. They lie, cheat, and steal their way into power, so that they can “forcibly overthrow” all aspects of existing society. I believe we are currently witnessing a full-court press to achieve just that.

Once in power, as all throughout their ascent, their strategy will be to divide and conquer by turning people against each other. Beyond that, they will continue to brainwash the useful idiots in a relentless deluge of propaganda, laying a firm grip on the public psyche, ala China-style.

America will never be the same.

Eventually, they will get around to rounding up the remaining dissenters for deprogramming, shuttling them off to publicly funded re-education camps.

Dems Scramble To Walk Back Harris’ Price Control Scheme

Democrats are in damage control mode after Kamala Harris’ communist price control scheme received a harsh rebuke – including from the Washington Post, which characterized it as “populist gimmicks.“

Facing pressure to defend the plan, Democratic lawmakers are downplaying it as a pipe dream that has no chance of passing Congress, Politico reports.

The plan, unveiled as part of Harris’ first big economic policy speech, has become a focal talking point for Donald Trump and allies, who continue to frame it as “communist price controls.” Meanwhile, food industry officials and some left-of-center economists have warned that price controls could be detrimental, according to the report.

Central to the plan is a call for congress to pass the first-ever federal price gouging ban on food and grocery stores – mirroring legislation reintroduced by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) earlier this year, for which Warren was taken to task by CNBC‘s Joe Kernen.

Now, six Congressional Democrats and five Democratic aides tell Politico that they’ve been privately telling critics that the plan isn’t viable – and is instead a messaging tactic to to divert blame over inflation from the Biden-Harris administration.

Even many Democrats remain skeptical, or at least uncertain about how Harris would carry out her proposal, if elected. They’re still working on getting details, but many have left that for after the DNC. -Politico

“It’s clear to me these are very general, very lofty goals,” said one of the Democratic lawmakers.

“I honestly still don’t know how this would work,” said a second Democratic lawmaker.

One More Whopper: Tim Walz Falsely Claimed He Was Named ‘Outstanding Young Nebraskan’ by the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce

Kamala Harris’ vice presidential running mate Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D) was caught in another misrepresentation during his 2006 run for Congress, Alpha News reported Friday.

Walz, who was born and raised in Nebraska and enlisted in the Nebraska National Guard at seventeen, falsely claimed he had been named “Outstanding Young Nebraskan” by the Nebraska Chamber of Congress. After the chamber’s president sent a scathing letter to the Walz campaign a few days before the 2006 election, the campaign blamed a typographical error and claimed the award actually came from the Nebraska Junior Chamber of Commerce:

Alpha News excerpt:

In early 2006, when Walz ran for the U.S. House of Representatives, his campaign website stated that he had received an award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce for his contributions to the business community. This claim was refuted by Barry L. Kennedy, then-president of the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce, who confirmed in a letter that Walz had never been the recipient of any such award.

“We researched this matter and can confirm that you have not been the recipient of any award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce,” Kennedy wrote in the letter, a copy of which was obtained by Alpha News.

Kennedy then requested that Walz remove the inaccurate claim.

Democrats Push Cheap Housing for Illegal Migrants

Democratic politicians nationwide are trying to put many illegal migrants into apartments and homes that would otherwise go to young Americans.

In California, Democrats in the state Assembly have passed legislation that would create homebuyer tax breaks for illegal migrants who walked through weak border controls.

“When undocumented individuals are excluded from such [house-buying] programs, they miss out on a crucial method of securing financial security and personal stability for themselves and their families,” according to the sponsor, Rep. Joaquin Arambula, a Democrat with a large and poor Latino constituency in Fresno Valley.

The giveaway will drive up Americans’ housing costs — and make life tougher for the 85 percent of American-born California families who earn less than roughly $80,000 per year and spend more than 30 percent of their income on housing, according to a pro-migrant advocacy group.

In Canada, the government’s mass migration policy is preventing many young Canadians from buying homes, reducing the birth rate, exploding Canada’s homeless population, and shifting vast wealth to older investors. Many young people will lose the retirement wealth that their parents earned from house ownership, Canada’s pro-migration Prime Minister Justin Trudeau admitted in July.

It Hasn’t Worked Once, So Why Would A Politician Go All-In On Price Controls Now?

August 15th was the anniversary of the infamous “Nixon Shock”, when excessive spending and trade deficits had governments on the ropes, as prices climbed relentlessly, inflation soared into the double digits, while economic growth stalled.

In 1971 of that year, Nixon “temporarily” suspended convertibility of the US dollar for gold (still in effect), while simultaneously proclaiming a 90-day freeze on all wages and prices across the United States.

The stagflationary ’70s also saw Trudeau the 1st enact “The Anti-Inflation Act of 1975”, with his infamous “6 and 5” measures (a 6% cap on wage increases with a 5% cap on prices was supposed to put 1% back into the pocket of the peasants).

None of this worked, and as the lumpenpublic were mulched by higher prices and growing government, gold served as a barometer to it all – soaring from $35/oz at the time of the Nixon Shock to $850/oz in 1980 (that all-time high still won’t be exceeded in inflation adjusted terms until gold cracks about $2,580).

It took Paul Volcker  to get inflation under control with double-digit interest rates – (when the news came that he had been elevated from President of the New York Fed under Gerald Ford to Chairman by Jimmy Carter, Volcker’s wife burst into tears).

Today, 50 years later with a monetary regime that makes the ’70s look austere, double-digit interest rates are simply not an option – we’ve just seen a 5-sigma event nearly blow up the global monetary system from the BoJ nudging interest rates from the zero bound to 25bps.

With an unprecedented levels of monetary expansion and debt levels somewhere beyond nosebleed elevations, policy-makers and central bankers are trapped.

This is why we’re seeing a resurgence in popular rhetoric around the idea of price controls – everywhere from Jagmeet Singh here in Canada, who blames grocery store CEOs for inflation, to Dem nominee and incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris, channeling him with promises of food price controls as part of her election campaign.

Obama’s Proxy Presidencies: No, You Can’t!

Mattieu Mabin, France 24’s Washington correspondent, reported on Barack Obama’s DNC 2024 speech Tuesday, noting:

It is remarkable to see how little Barack Obama has changed. What’s even more surprising is that, after leaving the White House nearly eight years ago, he can pick up his presidential rhetoric exactly where he left off, adding some required updates, and most notably, as if he were himself a candidate in 2024.

Oui, Monsieur Mabin, you’re right!  Barack Obama is, in effect, seeking his fourth term.

Obama served two terms as president from 2009 until 2017.  Following Donald Trump’s four years in the White House, Joe Biden was elected.  The Trump-Biden debate and Joe’s ouster as the 2024 candidate made it clear that Biden was not capable of being in charge for much of the past three and half years.  So who was? 

There are several candidates among the Democrat elite, among them the power pair, Bill and Hillary Clinton; Nancy Pelosi; Chuck Schumer; and Barack Obama.  There are certain indications that it was mostly the last.

Approximately three quarters of Biden’s key aides served under Obama. 

Biden’s key foreign policy posts (Antony Blinken, Jake Sullivan, Wendy Sherman as deputy secretary of state, Victoria Nuland as undersecretary of state for political affairs, and Jon Finer as deputy national security adviser) were primarily promotions from the Obama administration.

Even the leftist Washington Post reported on January 5, 2021 that the “concern around Washington is that the same people who crafted and defended President Barack Obama’s foreign policy won’t be willing or able to recognize, much less rectify, its shortcomings. “

Those concerns have turned out to be well founded.

RFK Jr. Exposes Democrats’ SUBVERSION OF DEMOCRACY Under Guise of “Saving” It

Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy took a flamethrower to the Democrat Party establishment Friday while announcing he’s suspending his campaign for president and throwing his support for Donald Trump.

Check out highlights from RFK’s historic speech below.

During his address to the nation Friday, RFK condemned Democrats for becoming a shadow of their former selves, saying they’d “become the party of war, censorship, corruption, big pharma, big tech, big ag, and big money.”

The nephew of former President John F. Kennedy went on to describe how Democrats subverted democracy by blocking his campaign from appearing in ballots in several states while claiming to save it.

Kennedy also bashed the military industrial complex for its complicity in Ukraine’s war against Russia.
