Forgive Me for Asking, But I Must
Forgive me, it is not my intention to cast cold water on our collective rejoicing at having President Donald Trump re-elected, again, and thus at having dodged the Democrat Party’s communist anti-democracy bullet aimed at America’s heart. It is true that Trump’s election gives us hope that our constitutional republic is not over. However, I feel like I am watching a repeat of 2016-2017, where highly qualified conservatives and Republicans were mysteriously bypassed, overlooked, left untouched by the then-new Trump Administration.
Well do I recall someone of real stature writing publicly then (2017-2018) about how mystified he was that no one from Team Trump had contacted him about any of the unique policy strengths he had, and how the new Trump Administration seemed disinterested or lost on whatever that policy subject was. Well, here we go again, from where I sit.
Trump supporters have learned to forgive the 2016-2017 lapses, missteps, failures, and missed opportunities as due to Trump’s unfamiliarity with government, his natural reliance upon long established and unreliable DC Beltway insiders, his understandably misplaced trust in deep staters and other bad actors, his misplaced faith in the weight of federal employees’ oaths of office.
We watched as Trump’s first term slowly, painfully, peeled away the mask from the hostile administrative state, generously bankrolled by American taxpayers and yet also so openly at war with us. We grudgingly learned to accept the stolen 2020 election as the cost of doing business within the parameters set for us by the establishment media, the administrative state, and its constellation of hostile non-government organizations, who then worked furiously from outside to undermine the very rules they set.
And so we miraculously prevailed in 2024, and America as founded yet lives again. And now we have earned the right to say openly, can we please not make the same and very avoidable mistakes again, this time around?
While President Trump is indeed appointing strong leaders who are willing to assertively implement his bold vision for a better government that is closely attuned to America’s founding documents and principles, one question has not been addressed: Who exactly is going to carry out these deep reforms?
With few exceptions (the US Dept. of Commerce being one), nearly the entire federal workforce was already openly insubordinate to President Trump the last time around. And there is no reason to believe that these public employees are going to honor their oaths of office this time. And if Trump follows through on the DOGE promise to eliminate entire federal agencies, and greatly streamline those that remain, then which law-abiding civil servants will there be to carry forward in those same agencies the Trump Administration’s policies?
Put another way, if President Trump installs leaders who, for example, change the name of the radicalized US Environmental Protection Agency, then which of the old USEPA staff will there be to then follow through with the systemic change through every artery and vein inside the old institutional body? If the federal government is going to aggressively do compliance checks or reel back in billions of dollars in Biden grants to far-left NGOs, then who exactly is prepared to hit that ground running? The current federal workforce is almost entirely unreliable, and if left in place, each and every federal employee will become a road block of one. The DOGE people had better be collecting lots and lots of names of prospective civil servants who are prepared to take the place of existing staff, who should end up fired from federal service for any number of good reasons.
House cleaning is promised, but who then moves into the house to give it new life?
Ending where this essay began, it is my turn to publicly complain: No one from Team Trump contacted me, way back in 2016-2020, or now, about my unique area of expertise. I am one of a very small handful of truly conservative Republicans nationwide with extensive hands-on experience with public land issues and wildlife habitat/ land conservation policy. No Trump staffer has called to ask my experienced opinion on federal appraisal standards, especially related to eminent domain, or on rights-of-way issues surrounding federal properties. To my knowledge, none of my few colleagues have been contacted, either. I am not looking for a job. I already run a small business that I really enjoy. But I am willing to volunteer my precious time to help shape sound federal policy that is a significant deviation from the longstanding horrible status quo.
President Trump has the loyalty of so many talented and experienced conservatives, any and all of whom will jump at the opportunity to simply help this one man (and his administration) who can save America. This is the big chance to get America back on track.
So why then do I feel like America via President Trump is once again missing easy opportunities to make lasting, good policy? If the right people do not identify and help fix these longstanding horrible policies, the civil servants will keep them in place, and we will miss a once in a lifetime opportunity for good government.
January 6th is the modern July 4th
January 6th is traditionally the date upon which the previous national election is certified in the US Congress, in Washington, DC, barring any discrepancies or challenges.
Certification implies a process, and any process implies steps and checks and balances. An election cannot possibly be automatically certified. What the hell would that rubber stamp prove? Certification in its fullest meaning means that all of the questions have been answered, any outstanding challenges have been resolved, and everyone or most of everyone involved is on board.
Certifiying an election means that it is a kosher product, unadulterated and without question legitimate.
And so while tomorrow Congress is supposed to stick around DC to certify President Donald Trump’s electoral success last November, it appears an imminent snow storm has sent most congresscritters squawking for shelter. Which leaves us with the opportunity to reflect upon just what meaning January 6th has taken on since the January 6th of 2021.
I participated in a peaceful protest in Washington, DC, on January 6th 2021. Originally gathering at the Washington Monument, around 1:40PM we eventually started walking down Constitution Avenue to the US Capitol, where we were supposed to peacefully show our displeasure at the obvious rubber stamping of a blatantly stolen 2020 election.
At this point, my memory of exactly where we ended up standing out in front of the Capitol is lost to the haze of time and age. However, I recall standing on a large stone plaza with a lot of other American patriots, many of whom waved American flags and other types of flags (Gadsden, many Trump themes, gay, Vietnamese) while peacefully milling around. We were facing the Capitol and about forty feet away was a line of metal barricades.
Out of the blue an unexpected and unearned rain of flashbangs and other explosive munitions were launched into our midst, while I personally watched peaceful protestors standing in front of the barricades get shot directly in their faces with explosives by the police officers who we thought were there to protect us from Antifa thugs (I saw several protestors with destroyed faces stumbling away from the barricades). I also watch police officers lean across the barricades and spray chemical irritants into the faces of peaceful protestors, as well as smash people in the head with their batons. I myself was shot many times with rubber bullets by a single determined police officer, who seemed to be trying to hit my face, but who instead hit my chest and shoulders (a picture of some of them below that I brought back with me).
Like many other peaceful protestors gathered around me, I was also gassed several times by pepper and tear gas munitions fired by the police out over the barricades and into our peaceful gathering. Being gassed is an awful experience. Mind you, none of us were doing anything but singing the national anthem and other patriotc songs, as well as breaking out into spontaneous chants of USA! USA! USA! We were standing exactly where we were supposed to be standing. We did not deserve to be shot, gassed, bludgeoned, or blown up by the police who were sworn to protect us.
The fallout from January 6th 2021 has only begun.
January 6th was nothing like the fake presentations done by the corrupt US House January 6th Committee, which dubbed in riot sounds over the silent CCTV footage they carefully cobbled together. Nothing like the ridiculous narrative told by the mainstream media. The vast majority of protestors on January 6th were peaceful, if ultimately shocked by the illegal brutality rained down upon them by uniformed police officers.
We expect a great deal of investigation to be done this year, into the official lawlessness and criminal police brutality we protestors experienced. Only a small handful of people were in or near the Capitol or its doorways, and only a handful engaged in real violence against the police. The rest of us deserve justice, and especially those political prisoners who have been languishing away without receiving a speedy trial, often in solitary confinement, since their violent arrests in 2021.
If American citizens receive huge pay-outs for minor injuries incurred from violent police officers, then what are people like me entitled to? My right eye still has a purple clot in it that I got from the gas or pepper spray on January 6th. I still carry emotional trauma from that violent experience, not to mention the several subsequent visits I received from FBI agents, who told me up front that I had committed no crimes on January 6th, but that they “just wanted to talk with me.” Like mafia goons. Their lawlessness is breathtaking.
Other Americans were seriously injured and permanently disabled by the police on that terrible day. The January 6th political prisoners have undergone years of torture and beatings in prison. All of these people deserve just compensation, and I really hope we will get it.
If nothing else, January 6th 2021 was the modern day Kent State or even the new July 4th (recall that on January 6th four protestors were killed by police, and zero police – none, nada – were killed by the protestors). We, The People stood up to the lawless thieves and power-hungry tyrants of our time, challenged their phony election certification, declared our ownership of the government they hijacked and our independence from their tyranny.
With the 2024 election of freedom-fighter Donald John Trump, we have ultimately prevailed, despite the legacy media constantly lying about us and about what really happened on January 6th, 2021.

Oh, the Biblical irony of Trump’s win
Anyone with even a minimal exposure to the Bible knows that miracles happen and that God operates in strange ways. Well, it is no miracle that Donald Trump won re-election to the presidency, because the radicalized anti-America Democrat Party has estranged over half the country, but it is quite richly ironic that Trump won this election.
The irony is that had the 2020 election not been stolen, Trump woud have been leaving office right now. Who knows how effective he would have been in his second consecutive term, given that he was still barely keeping his head above the DC quicksand when the 2020 election was held.
Now, however? Well, after surviving four years in the political wilderness, being cut to the bone over and over by cruel and evil people with their lawless lawfare, Trump has emerged even stronger, smarter, more experienced, with truly fine-tuned, finely honed political instincts and skills.
If people thought Trump was tough and determined in 2020, well, I suspect they ain’t seen nothin’ yet. Trump is likely going to absolutely roar back into office like a cleansing tornado or an angry dominant lion scattering his foes in all directions, because he now knows where the power buttons are, the skeletons lie, the bureaucracy’s weak points, and where the really dangerous people are located. If Trump doesn’t do a complete and utter, devastating, crushing re-make of the DC bureaucracy, then he learned nothing from his time in office and in the wilderness.
Trump could not have become the truly shining knight in white armor without having gone through all of the torment and abuse he experienced. His time out of power in brutal conditions tested him, improved him, and made him into an incredible warrior for democracy and for We, The People.
And that is the irony. Rich, rich irony. Had the DC Swamp just left him in office another four years back in 2020, he probably would have floundered along, hamstrung by the rogue bureaucracy and the corrupt Uniparty. Now…change is coming, bitches. And it was you lawless, thieving Democrats and Uniparty people who made Trump into who and what he now is.
God is indeed great. A greater comeback and national salvation story could not be dreamed of. Except in the Bible.
2024 Election results reveal 2020 Election was stolen
2004 Election: 121 million votes cast
2008 Election: 129.5 million votes vast
2012 Election: 126.8 million votes cast
2016 Election: 128.8 million votes cast
2020 Election: 155.5 million votes cast
2024 Election: 141 million votes cast
Numbers don’t lie, and the numbers from six elections, and especially the three last elections, tell us that the 2020 election was blatantly stolen.
Trump just won with about 73 million votes to Kamala Harris’ 68 million, roughly speaking, as drips and drabs of overseas ballots are still be counted.
In prior elections, neither Hillary Clinton nor Hussein Obama obtained anywhere near 81 million votes, which is the number attributed to Joe Biden in 2020. In 2020, doddering, dementia-ridden, no charisma Joe Biden hid in his basement, held few rallies, and the rallies he did hold were super low T low energy low turnout. Historically, in human history, this kind of political campaign just cannot win.
In 2020 Trump got 74 million votes nationwide, in what was considered to be the hottest, most aggressive race and the most popular, most energized individual campaign since Obama’s first run. Recall that Trump had huge rallies, had all the polls and the momentum on his side.
And after Trump won decisively on Election Day 2020, but then waited in good faith for days afterwards for several swing states (PA, GA, AZ, MI) to finish counting “newly found” ballots behind closed doors with no Republican observers present, suddenly, magically, ridiculously, Biden was declared the winner of 2020.
The MSM claim was that Biden had obtained the unbelievable number of 81 million votes.
While the 2020 Trump campaign did object to the hastily declared win on so many procedural grounds, because there were so many crazy high numbers of really crazy, blatant election law violations, not one court would hear the lawsuits. Not one court decided a 2020 campaign lawsuit on its merits. Rather, the entire political establishment just looked away as the political assassination and theft of a nation played out in front of everyone’s eyes. It was a time of mass insanity.
And so for four subsequent years, the conservative base, patriots, working people, moms and dads, began networking and paying closer attention to political procedures, to school boards, to the massive government overreach happening everywhere. And this new body politic grew its own information networks, and fueled others that had been kind of on the sidelines. Sources like Breitbart and Gateway Pundit suddenly grew by leaps and bounds. Trump’s Truth Social became a place where conservatives could communicate and share information without fear of being censored. Then Elon Musk bought Twitter, and fired about 80% of the hard-left staff, and made it into Free Speech Central.
And as the lid came off the information flow, more and more Americans began circumventing the partisan establishment media, and getting the truth about the lawless disaster that is the Biden-Harris administration. Next thing ya know, a mass movement for freedom, for America, and for Trump was re-invigorated, especially after Trump was martyred weekly with false accusations, lawfare and bizarre court proceedings that everyone could see were unfair.
And the Republican National Committee also changed leadership, removing listless, petulant, pouting, lazy, useless do-nothing Ronna McDaniel, replacing her with Lara Trump and Michael Whatley. Whatley and Trump focused on all the lessons learned from the procedural failures of 2020, and began building a political machine with lawyers tied in with the voter base and polling places. Something that RNC elites had not done in many decades.
When the 2024 election arrived, RNC attorneys and poll watchers were everywhere, watching everything, refusing to allow Republican poll watchers to be violently removed from polls and vote counting, like they were in 2020. Refusing to allow truckloads of unknown, undocumented ballots from being delivered to vote counting locations without a fight. And so, RNC resistance to cheating and vote fraud in 2024 staved off another stolen presidential election.
Attempts are happening right now to steal several congressional elections around the country using the overseas ballots, which the DOJ was trying hard to protect from scrutiny earlier this year. Here in PA we have (US Senate race) Dave McCormick ahead of Bob Casey by about 28,000 votes, and (US House race) Scott Perry ahead of Janelle Stelson by something like a couple thousand votes, and the UOCAVA ballots are now being used to try to overcome these leads. If real scrutiny is applied to these ballots, and only the real ones are counted, then the leads of McCormick and Perry should hold.
I got a call an hour ago, with the RNC trying to locate as many election law attorneys as they can find to cover this new front in the election.
Back to Kamalingus: Somehow she got thirteen million votes LESS than Biden did just four years ago? And somehow America lost fourteen million votes overall between 2020 and 2024? No. These votes did not just vaporize and disappear two days ago. They never existed. They were just made up of fake ballots. These numbers show just how bad the cheating was in 2020, and that means that Joe Biden was not elected president. Trump was.
Bottom line is, Democrat Party cheating just never stops. It is an ingrained part of the party’s culture, and it will not stop until cheating is made less possible. It is why the Biden DOJ fought every voter integrity law passed across the USA over the past few years, and why the DOJ just fought (and lost) to keep illegal aliens on the Virginia voter rolls.
God willing, America now has a Republican majority House, Republican majority Senate, and the White House, and if nothing else, they must pass voting laws that prevent the kind of cheating we saw in 2020 from ever happening again.
UPDATE November 9, 2024: Trump has now exceeded the number of votes he obtained in 2020, somewhere north of 75 million, while Harris has also increased her votes somewhat. More and more people are openly questioning and mocking the fake “81 million votes” number that Biden supposedly got in 2020. How the 2020 election was fraudulently stolen is going to come out soon.
Pictures worth a bazillion words
I had my jab sticker
Only ballots matter, not candidates, not votes, not polls or surveys
With Dementia Joe Bribem dropping out of the election today, the scramble is on to replace him with a credible candidate. Apparently the fur is flying within Democrat Party circles, as people jockey and push to get their preferred candidate nominated.
It doesn’t matter who they choose- Kamala, Hillary, Gavin Newsom. Absolutely none of the potential Democrat candidates make any difference. Puppetmaster Barack Hussein Obama can literally choose Mickey Mouse and still have a good shot at “winning” the November election.
This is due to the fact that the Democrat Party with its RINO enablers perfected voter fraud in 2020, and with even just half of their fraudulent methods enabled again this November, they have a good chance of declaring their candidate, anyone, the winner.
Literal ballot stuffing and voting machine “glitches” in 2020 and 2022 are probably sufficient in 2024 to spam Election Day counting so that regardless of questions raised, the corrupt Democrat establishment media can rush to declare a winner and force it through.
Ballots are all that matter now. Not polls and surveys, not votes, not even voters really matter. Cartloads of fake ballots will still be counted in favor of whomever the Democrat candidate is, just as we watched on video in 2020 in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan and Arizona.
Here in Pennsylvania, Governor Shapiro is rushing to enable a lot of disqualified illegal aliens to vote, by issuing them driver’s licenses and then having automatic motor-voter registration. Get a driver’s license, automatically get registered to vote for more Democrat Party largesse. And it’s actually more diabolical than this. Up in Williamsport a new illegal alien processing center has been set up. These new and very illegal Democrat voters will then be shipped off to conservative political districts, where they will dilute and replace the actual citizens there.
The Democrat Party and its RINO Uniparty “deep state” allies cannot afford to lose this election. Because their mask is off, we all see who they are and what Marxist totalitarian evil they are intent on committing, and if they lose the election, we know exactly what to do to neuter their ill-gotten gains. So everything is on the line for the administrative state, and for We, The People.
Never before has this blog called for American patriots to “ammo up,” at least that I can recall. But now I will say it: Prepare fully for the very worst effort to steal the election and thereby to steal America in the next few months. Talk with your trusted friends and faith community about sticking together in the event of a catastrophic emergency. Be like the original Minute Men; be ready. You have probably lost your vote, and now all you have is your one finger and something to pull with it. That’s the only thing totalitarians respect.
If you doubt me on how bad these people are, look at Joe Biden now: Stepping out of the campaign because he’s got dementia, but staying in the presidency because he wants to. Even though he has dementia and is not qualified to stay there. This is all about Democrat Party power over America, not about what is best for our nation.
CNN debate shows world Biden is a mindless puppet
Interesting how for the past four years leftists, the mainstream media, some establishment Republicans, and partisan Democrats have strenuously defended Joe Biden’s mental incompetence, his well documented influence peddling/ bribery/ selling out of America with China and Ukraine, the stolen 2020 election that put this mindless puppet in power. And last night, the entire world got to see up close that Joe Biden is indeed a dementia-ridden mindless puppet. The man is not in control of his own mind or his own decisions, and has not been for years.
“I don’t understand what he just said, and he doesn’t know what he just said,” President Donald Trump said to the cameras last night in response to one of Joe Bidens’ humiliating mindless mouthful of marbles gobbledygook.
President Trump easily dominated the debate. So easily, that a lot of people are now wondering if it wasn’t an inside set-up to put Joe Biden in the most public spotlight, so that even the most super partisan silo-dwelling rah-rah Democrats would have to finally be confronted with the uncomfortable truth that their man is a mindless puppet. Once they accept that Biden is a mindless robot, they will more willingly try to find someone else to replace him, is apparently the thinking.
After the CNN/Democrat Party-run “debate” ended last night, “moderated” by two partisan political activists who have spent years badmouthing and lying about President Trump, President Trump confidently strode off stage right, and Jill Biden ran out onto the stage to grab doddering ol’ Joe Biden, who was frozen in place, vacantly staring out into the empty studio (remember CNN’s debate rules that were designed to protect Joe Biden and to undermine President Trump – no props, no pieces of paper, no studio audience, microphones turned off…there was no one for Biden to look at, just darkness).
It is clear to everyone who watched last night that Joe Biden is not his own man. He is doing the bidding of others, because he has not his own thoughts in his head. It is sad, and infuriating, because he was illegally installed in 2020, not elected, going from hiding in his basement to the White House without earning it. Someone else, probably America-hating Barack Hussein Obama, has been actually running the American presidency from behind a curtain.
If the true goal was to out Biden as an incompetent, it worked. Because today the wide open public debate among mainstream media Democrats and the official Democrat Party apparatchiks is who will replace puppet Joe Biden for the 2024 election. He clearly cannot continue on as candidate for president; not if the Democrat Party wants to retain a shred of hope of winning the 2024 election.
Everyone sees that Biden is well beyond an Article 25 removal case. Even worse than a constitutional problem, Biden is the very image of final death for the pro-slavery Democrat Party, that should have died out by shame alone in 1865 after plunging America into the first civil war, and losing.
Biden is now suddenly such a huge liability that he ironically threatens to bring down the whole political party that once fraudulently placed him in power. This stuff is drama of a Biblical scale.
How sweet our freedom will taste in November, after the evildoers are ruined, and by their own hand no less.
Easter & Passover = Time for American Renewal
America as a representative, constitutional republic run by The People is being purposefully killed by the Biden Administration. In case the horrible inflation and scary economy and ATF cold blooded murder-execution of Bryan Malinowski in his bedroom did not grab your attention recently, maybe today’s headlines will: Joe Biden declared today to be a “transgender day of visibility,” despite today actually being Easter.
A more grotesque and purposefully evil statement could not be imagined, but then again, what evil haven’t we seen with Joe Biden. Sorry to the transgender people out there, but today is a major Christian holiday, and to flaunt hypersexual nonsense at the expense of America’s founding belief system is a major slap in the face of all Americans.
If Biden’s bizarre effort to outright ignore Easter and flaunt hyper sexuality seems to you like a big political risk for very little political gain, you are correct. What you are forgetting is that Joe Biden stole the 2020 election and has not felt accountable to voters ever since. This first-ever bizarre day of trans whatever nonsense is what politicians do when they believe they are not going to experience electoral pushback. And if you steal elections, you don’t feel accountable, and you just do whatever crazy crap you want to do. Like tyrants everywhere else.
America is in huge trouble. Enormous trouble. Who the hell ever saw a president so deeply committed to destroying the foundations of America, as well as its national defense, the rights of its citizens, its economy, etc? Joe Biden is not some aberration, he is being inflicted on America in order to destroy us as a people and as a nation. Joe Biden’s constant assault on America is not sustainable, and you should not think that America is too big to fail. You are watching America be failed on purpose right in front of your face.
Easter is based on Passover, which is right around the corner. Easter is more theological and Passover is more about national identity, and I think this year, these two holidays can, and must, together, mark an American spiritual, cultural, and political renewal that is borne out at the ballot box this November. Christians can pray that a free constitutional America rises again, and Jews can pray that a lawlessly brutal and sadistic federal government is defeated by The People, so that The People can go free and live their American lives as was envisioned from the beginning in 1776.
Hopefully enough Christians and Jews recognize that Easter and Passover of 2024 are uniquely placed to prompt them, you, us, to have a spiritual and national renewal, and that such a renewal allows us to throw off Joe Biden’s slave chains, so that we Americans can be a free people once more. This renewal must be implemented at the ballot box this November. The rejection of Joe Biden’s bizarre un-American/ anti-American values must be so overwhelming that there is no hope of his election cheating again this November.
