I recently watched again the movie “Mississippi Burning.” If you haven’t seen it, it’s worth watching—even more than once. For those of us who were tuned into current events during the civil rights struggles of the 1960s the movie is certainly a reminder of man’s inhumanity toward man. This movie is about what happened after Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy ordered an FBI investigation under the Lindbergh Law to look for three missing civil rights workers in Philadelphia, Mississippi—a community ruled by Ku Klux Klan (KKK) members.1 2

The KKK started up in 1865 at the end of the Civil War. By 1870 it had spread to nearly every southern state as a vehicle for white southern resistance to the Republican Party’s Reconstruction-era policies to establish full rights of citizenship for every black American. Of course, it wasn’t a positive, inclusive organization since its tactics were based on hate, terrorism, and segregation. Other than at the local level it was also rather disorganized. Eventually, it wasn’t until after President Wilson’s reign that the KKK went into decline. Before that, even in states such as Oregon blacks were forbidden to even think about putting down roots and, at its peak, about 4% of the national population claimed to be members of the KKK.3 4

Man’s inhumanity to others is certainly nothing new. We’re witnessing it on a daily basis here in the United States right now. It starts when various individuals go nuts as hatred and loathing consume them and they seek power by any means to force their way on everyone. They become totally irrational and hypocritical as they gravitate to each other en masse in their chosen echo chamber. Unfortunately, radical leftist liberals are modern forms of the KKK and our government’s deep state is saturated with these kinds of people—worse than in Philadelphia, Mississippi on June 21, 1964.

The prominence of radical liberals gained significant ground with the election of Obama. We all remember when Michelle Obama said “she was never proud of her country til they elected her husband POTUS." Prior to that we must assume that even though her husband was a senator, she was ashamed of America and all it stood for. From his election Obama set in motion the woke movement of national self loathing that he has led with the funding of George Soros, Mark Zukerberg, Bill Gates, and other elites whose agenda is to rip our country apart so they can rule through their One World Order.

I’m bringing up Obama because everyone is aware of his December 1, 2020, interview with Stephen Colbert on "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert," where he said:

If I could make an arrangement where I had a stand-in, a front man or front woman, and they had an earpiece in and I was just in my basement in my sweats looking through the stuff, and then I could sort of deliver the lines, but somebody else was doing all the talking and ceremony, I'd be fine with that. Because I found the work fascinating. I mean, I write about the... even on my worst days, I found puzzling out, you know, these big, complicated, difficult issues, especially if you were working with some great people, to be professionally really satisfying. But I do not miss having to wear a tie every day.5

Well, Biden was the perfect choice for continuing Obama’s woke agenda to fundamentally change the USA. For starters it was Obama’s CIA that caused the overthrow of Ukraine’s elected government in 2014. It was Obama who permitted Biden to put together his family’s criminal enterprise starting in 2013. It was the flipping of Ukraine’s government that eventually led to Russia invading Ukraine under Biden’s watch.6

Obama flew plane loads of cash to Iran, a sponsor of terrorism. And, on February 18, 2021, Biden withdrew Trump’s restoration of UN sanctions on Iran. Then in October 2023, Biden sent Iran $6 billion leaving Iran flush with cash which they used to attack Israel. Weirdly, in the past few days it’s rumored that an Iranian military security official revealed that the US contacted the Islamic Republic, asking them to allow Israel “a symbolic strike to save face” following Iran's retaliatory drone and missile barrage. Of course they were turned down. But the show of weakness on the part of the Biden administration is astounding! Yet last night’s Israeli attack on Iran did seem to follow that script.7 8 9

Under Biden our military has gone woke and adopted DEI principles. The result is that proficiency and recruitment is down. In July 2021, after abandoning Afghanistan and the strategic Bagram Airfield along with maybe $80 billion of military equipment, our country has shipped nearly all of its surplus artillery shells to Ukraine and it’s expected to take years to restock our ammo dumps. Also, our country’s petroleum reserve, which was setup for national emergences, has been drained to hold down the price of oil thus compromising its mission as a strategic reserve.10

The border has been wide open since the day Biden took office and about 12 million illegals have poured into the country. About 20% are gotaways, many of whom came to America to join terrorist cells. It’s also made the border easier for importing deadly fentanyl along with conducting human trafficking. As it turns out, Biden’s Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas is fully in bed with the open borders lobby. Until 2020, he served on the board of Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society—what is now being called a radical left-wing group that is actively ferrying illegals into America. Obviously Mayorkas was never serious about border security.11

Biden has become famous for ignoring the laws of the land from open borders (terrorists, fentanyl, human trafficking, criminality of all kinds), forgiving student loans, taking bribes, outright lying, turning a blind eye toward crime in America, election interference, lawfare, weaponization of the Department of Justice, inhumane treatment of Jan6 protestors, suppression of free speech, dictating the Green agenda, and more. He continuously takes the side of the radical leftists that are in the legislature and the leftist mobs that riot in the streets. And when things go wrong, he blames former president Trump.

He has staffed his administration with people of questionable repute. His foreign policy is a shambles and he exhibits weakness on the national stage. His fiscal policies are spend, spend, spend to the point where the purchasing power of the dollar domestically has fallen 20% since he’s taken office. The country’s debt is soaring at one trillion dollars a quarter.

As a result Obama’s surrogate has done more to weaken our country than any enemy in our country’s history. There’s virtually nothing he has done that has been uplifting. He has been divisive while exhibiting hatred toward anyone who encourages MAGA.

As a result our nation is being led by a new form of grand wizard that presides over a hierarchy of grand dragons, grand titans and grand cyclopses, whose objective is to spread fear, self-loathing, hate, and mind control while bringing our country to its knees for the elitists controlling the One World Order. The radical liberals burn our flag, cheer anti Semites, chant death to America, demand more subsidies, want socialism, hate our Constitution and Bill of Rights, despise our heritage, promote depravity and child mutilation, are sacrilegious, disrespectful, and demand a dictatorship rather than a representative form of government that’s of the people and for the people.

This is why the 2024 election is the most important one in our lifetimes. Hopefully it won’t be postponed by a national emergency or corrupted to the point of being meaningless.

To your health.
