NOTABLE QUOTES

Molly Hemmingway author of a recently published book, “Rigged: How the Media, Big Tech, and the Democrats Seized Our Elections,”: “People who care about knowing what’s happening in elections and having trust in what they are shouldn’t just be looking at what they did in previous elections. The people who did this knew that people were going to figure out that they did this crazy embedding into systems. So presumably, they know that people are going to make it illegal and they’re going to move on to the next thing. So people need to be kind of imaginative about how the election administration can be corrupted so that they can be ready to see what’s going to happen in the future.”

Steve McCaan contributor to American Thinker: There are two irrefutable and intertwined realities of authoritarianism that the citizens of any democratic nation must recognize and understand.  First, any political party that espouses ever greater power for the central government, socialist-centric economic policies and continual erosion of individual freedom is an existential threat to the nation.  Second, the leaders of these political parties and their disciples will lie incessantly and under no circumstances will they alter their policies or tactics, as they can never be wrong in their pursuit of unbridled political power.

Charles “Sam” Faddis former CIA operations officer: Joe Biden’s federal vaccine mandate is toothless. He cannot make it work. He cannot enforce it, and so the federal government has tried to ‘back door‘ a national vaccine mandate by pushing corporations to do their dirty work. Maybe the feds can’t really order you to take the jab, but if they can prevent you from earning a living without the vaccine, they can achieve the same objective. It seems simple enough and strangely fitting for a government that is increasingly indistinguishable from giant multinational corporations, Big Tech, and the oligarchs that run the entire enterprise.

Col. West Republican candidate for Texas Governor joins the fight against Biden’s vaccine mandate: “Our bodies are our last sanctuary of liberty and freedom, I will defend that for everyone, even the progressive socialist jackasses who must be saved from themselves.”

Patricia McCarthy contributor to American Thinker: Will law enforcement capitulate to Biden’s absurd vaccine mandate or stand together against it?  Will they physically abuse citizens who don’t wear masks or have proof of vaccination?  Our police need to decide which side they are going to protect: the criminal politicians and bureaucrats or law-abiding citizens.  If they, along with their brothers and sisters who are firefighters, paramedics, and health care workers, present a united front, perhaps we can win America back from the communists wildly wielding their undeserved power over us all

LIFE & THE U.S. SUPREME COURT

Ascik: Eight Reasons to Overturn Roe v. Wade
With the widespread public furor about whether the Supreme Court will overturn its more-than-landmark 1973 abortion decision in Roe v. Wade, it is necessary to recognize that the Supreme Court’s abortion decisions, in their content and in their judicial methods, are without precedent in American jurisprudential, political, social, cultural, and moral history. For last 48 years—that is, 20 percent of our history—no other issue, public or private, has divided and polarized the country and the Court as its decision in Roe v. Wade. In its petition to the Supreme Court filed in July, the state of Mississippi has boldly attacked the two fundamental Supreme Court abortion decisions, Roe v. Wade (1973) and Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992), as “egregiously wrong” because the Constitution, while protecting “aspects of privacy,” does not provide for a “general right of privacy.” In addition, the Court’s line of abortion cases and their standards of review, Mississippi says, have proven to be administratively “unworkable” in state attempts to enact their own abortion laws. And overall, the Court’s abortion decisions have undermined “democratic self-governance,” and thus have “harmed the nation.” The case, Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, has now been set for oral argument on December 1. This essay expands on some of the arguments enunciated by Mississippi and offers additional rationales for the overturning of Roe. The dominant theme herein is not merely “constitutional” in the sense of case law, but “constitutional” in the sense of the basic premises and practices of American government and common public life. There are at least eight reasons to overturn Roe v. Wade. First, there is the sharpest dichotomy, both in the facts and in the law, between what the Supreme Court thinks abortion is and what the state governments think. There is no comparable example in American jurisprudence. In Roe, . . . […]  Second, not only does the Supreme Court regularly overturn prior precedents, it has established rules for doing so. Responding to the Supreme Court’s temporary decision in September . . .

2020 ELECTION

Gelertner: Your Vote Won’t Count
But third, and most important by far, the thing that ultimately renders our elections meaningless is people like Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), Republican National Committee Chairman Ronna McDaniel and Georgia Governor Brian Kemp. They are the most important allies in the conspiracy to steal our elections, precisely because we expect them to be fighting on our side. Fraudulent elections cost Republicans seats—cost Republicans the presidency—so why wouldn’t the most powerful people in the Republican Party be fighting just as hard as they could to expose fraud and pass laws requiring in-person voting with ID? Here’s the secret answer:These people hate you. Sure, they’re willing to pay lip service to America as a great nation, to churchgoing values, and so forth. But they’re really just Democrats with different special interests: They want to funnel all your money to military contractors instead of environmentalists. People like Donald Trump interfere with that. People like you interfere with that. Because you want the government to mind its own goddamned business. And, on that issue, Mitch McConnell is united with Senator Chuck Shumer (D-N.Y.) against you. These people live for power. They exist for the pleasure of . . . […]  There is no solution to this problem short of a Constitutional Convention that restores our elections to their original format: Voting on election day, and in-person. Until we make that happen, there is no point in hoping the next election will be magically less fraudulent than the last one. That is precisely what the Mitch McShumer crowd wants you to do: hope. Hope is an excuse not to act. Don’t take it.

THE UNRELENTLESS DEMOCRAT LED EFFORT TO SEXUALIZE AMERICA’S CHILDREN

(Posted August 2011) Clabough: HHS Website Advocates Early Sexualization of Children
The United States Department of Human Health Services seems to be pushing for the sexualization of young children. According to the HHS website, children are in fact “sexual beings.” This revelation comes around the same time as a group of psychologists are pushing to decriminalize pedophilia. The combination could prove to be a recipe for trouble and for the loss of childhood innocence. In the “Questions and Answers About Sex” section of the HHS website’s “Quick Guide to Healthy Living,” children and infants are described as “sexual beings.” The site indicates: . . . […]  “The idea that ‘children are human beings and therefore sexual beings’ is one of the most destructive myths of the sexual revolution. To a large extent, this myth may be traced to the ‘research’ conducted by Alfred Kinsey, including the infamous ‘Children of Table 34’ experiments, which involved the deliberate sexual abuse of children as young as 6 months old under ‘experimental’ conditions. […]  Those potential dangers are exacerbated by the efforts of a group of mental health professionals, called “B4U-ACT,” to decriminalize and normalize pedophilia. A statement by the group reads: . . . […]  The goals of B4U-ACT is to encourage tolerance of pedophiles.

(Posted December 2020) Alfred Kinsey and the Children Of Table 34
The theory of childhood sexuality advanced by Alfred Kinsey’s sex researchers has shaped how and when sex education is taught in the United States. It has also influenced the laws against sexual molestation. Alfred Kinsey was a zoologist, most famous for his sex research in the 1940’s. What is less well known is his use of known pedophiles in his experiments with children. There is evidence to suggest that Kinsey’s scientific research into child sexuality was actually molestation. The Infamous “Table 34” Kinsey’s Sexual Behavior in the Human Male1, 1948, offers proof of the systematic child abuse in Dr. Kinsey’s researDr Judith Reisman documented the abuse of more than 300 infants and children in the production of Alfred Kinsey’s research. These kids were aged from 2 months to 15 years. She asks: . . .  […]  Pat Trueman is a former US Attorney for the US Justice Department’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Unit. Trueman says, If these experiments took place, they involved acts to which no child could provide consent and for which no parent or guardian could provide consent on behalf of the child. Therefore we are talking about criminal behavior, the criminal sexual abuse of children. […]  The theory of childhood sexuality advanced by Alfred Kinsey’s sex researchers has shaped how and when sex education is taught in the United States. It has also influenced the laws against sexual molestation. Gordon Muir continues: (Kinsey) provided the “scientific” basis for (pedophilia). He felt the main problem with adult-child sexual relations was hysteria and over-reaction on the part of parents and authorities. […]  Who was Mary Calderone? Working with the Kinsey team was Mary Calderone, medical director of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America from 1953 to 1964. She later founded . . .

Laila: Ohio Man’s Kidney Transplant Canceled Days Away From Scheduled Surgery Because Donor Wasn’t Vaxxed
Fully vaccinated Mike Ganin, 52, was just days away from his scheduled transplant surgery when he was informed by the Cleveland Clinic it was canceled because the donor was not vaccinated. Under the Cleveland Clinic’s new policy, the donor must be vaccinated against Covid in order to donate an organ.
Desperate to find a kidney donor after doctors said dialysis would no longer suffice, Debi Ganin took to Facebook to find a match for her husband. Debi pleaded for help in a Facebook post and sure enough she found a match for her husband after dozens of people offered to take a blood test. After finding a match and months of prep, the Ganins were told the transplant surgery was canceled due to a new policy.

Sundance: Maine Hospital Gives Dire Warning About Healthcare Services if Forced to Fire Unvaccinated Workers – Democrat Governor Says Let Your Hospital Patients Die We Ain’t Changing
Central Maine Medical Center, a key hospital for regional healthcare, issued a dire warning about the need to shut down critical care services last week if they are forced to fire or lay-off all the unvaccinated workers.

BIDEN/HARRIS/OBAMA REGIME: TRANSFORMING AMERICA

Blankley: Gas prices at 7-year high and rising as Biden wages offensive against domestic energy producers“Average gas price: June 2020: $2.21 June 2021: $3.07 President Biden’s economy!” Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) tweeted during the summer. […]  . . . the Democrats’ $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation bill reportedly includes an estimated $6 billion worth of charges on U.S. oil and gas operators on federal lands, which could effectively put mom and pop small business, and minority and Native-owned operations out of business, in addition to killing tens of thousands of jobs. There isn’t enough oil and gas supply to meet U.S. demand, due to a combination of factors, including the Biden administration halting new leases on federal land, halting the Keystone Pipeline, increasing regulatory burdens, and other measures that will take years to correct, those in the industry argue. […]  The $6 billion in additional costs imposed on the industry included in the budget reconciliation bill include new methane fees, inspection fees, severance fees, and bonding requirements, as well as additional requirements for operating on federal lands. One provision increases onshore oil and gas . . .[…]  Another provision includes an additional $15 per-acre fee for  . . . […]  Another proposal shortens the length of the lease from 10 to 5 years, making the lease nearly moot, since it often takes five years for a lease to be approved. Read more at Just the News.

AN AMERICA IN DECLINE: A PATH TO RESTORATION

The Washington Examiner: Restoring America
America is going wrong. That is the stark but necessary starting point for this editorial. Many people know it to be true; they can feel our politics and culture turning ever more sour, taste the bitter reality of national decline. But fewer people acknowledge it, for it is difficult to say such a terrible thing so bluntly. Politicians prefer to attack or promote specific policies and voice narrow grievances but tend to avoid the electoral poison of general gloom. They mostly keep away from the idea conveyed by the word “malaise,” with which Jimmy Carter succinctly captured America’s weakening spirit and dwindling capacity during his hapless presidency. But a sense that the country is out of whack and needs to be restored is now widespread. One hears it wherever one goes, at least among those who love America. […] . . .  the Washington Examiner arrived at six broad categories of values and vital reporting and commentary that will guide Restoring America. Now, let’s add detail to each:PATRIOTISM & UNITY  We will campaign for children to be taught to love and respect America. This does not mean whitewashing history or evading the truth that slavery is a grievous stain on our past. But it does mean schoolchildren should not be propagandized, as they are now, to believe that ours is a fundamentally bad country, worse than others, and beyond redemption. Last year, Gallup found that U.S. national pride had fallen to a record low. This should not be, for America is great and good, and children should grow up . . . […]  FAITH, FREEDOM, & SELF-RELIANCE  We will advocate for . . . […]  COURAGE, STRENGTH, & OPTIMISM  We will campaign for . . . […]  EQUALITY NOT ELITISM  . . . […]  COMMUNITY & FAMILY . . . […] FAIRNESS & JUSTICE  . . .
