I wish I was better at research. There is a video clip, it has to be out there, and I want it but can't find it. It's from the phenomenal show Yellowstone. Rip is speaking to the boy.
2) None of us deserve the opportunities we're granted. They show up, unannounced and unearned. Then, we either show up or we don't. The only way to "earn" an opportunity is to show up for it after it arrives. You just have to show up. You still don't deserve it.
3) Why don't you deserve your opportunities? Because of all those who came before, who fought and bled and died for all you have available to you. I didn't fight in World War II, did you? What if Hitler hadn't been defeated? What about Hirohito, Mussolini? Did you defeat them?
4) I confess, I have just about nothing on World War I. It confuses hell out of me. Yet still, there appears to be some bad guys in Germany, wanting to take over Europe. The entire Russia thing, with its 1917 Revolution is involved. Very confusing.
5) Yet I have some strange reason to believe I'm grateful for our boys who bled and died for our freedom. The Kaiser did not become King of Europe. So there's that. Seriously, let freedom ring. And then, further back there's Honest Abe and the 13th Amendment he died for.
6) We still have freedom, here in the US. It's under vicious attack, no question. Freedom doesn't seem to be very popular with the ruling class. There's nothing new about that. Rulers love to rule. They love obedient compliance from their underlings. Not new.
7) Be you serf or be you slave, be you compliant obedient citizen, rulers love their rule. It's tempting to say who wouldn't love that? But it's wrong. I wouldn't and I bet you wouldn't either. If you're a free man or woman, you need no other's subjugation. Do you?
8) Let's talk about the 2020 election. It was stolen. Here I am, on Twitter, saying so, and they still don't take my account down...yet. I have no idea why not. But I do know that I have the right of free speech to say so. The election was stolen.
9) You've heard of crimes against humanity. Hate crimes, right? And when the power of government is used as Hitler did in exterminating Jews, that defines a crime against humanity. I want you to meditate on that. The entirety of human suffers from such crimes. The entirety.
10) What we suffered in 2020 was a crime against America. Our Constitution was violated in the worst possible way. If this remains uncorrected, we have lost our Constitution. If our Constitution is lost, we are violated as a people. A crime against America.
11) Yet still we must be grateful. All those who went before gave us this opportunity. We didn't give it to ourselves, they did. It is our opportunity to reaffirm our Constitution, to fight again for our freedom. It's not gone, not lost, just tarnished.
12) No, I don't know how to do it. I don't know how to correct the Crime Against America that occurred. But I do know that there is a team who's working very hard to do so. Mike Lindell. Patrick Byrne. Lin Wood. Sidney Powell. General Mike Flynn. They're all working hard.
13) I won't linger. There appears to be some dissention among them, these fighters for our election integrity. My hope, my prayer is that they resolve this dissention rapidly. They have the opportunity to lead. If they rise to it, we will have the opportunity to follow.
14) But let's talk about what they face. They face the entire apparatus of government that gave rise to the discredited Mueller investigation, the discredited FISA court, the discredited process of illegal unmasking. The Swamp is mighty. Has been. Still is. That's what they face.
15) With all the gratitude in my soul, I say, let us be sure to unite forces against the evil in our land. That is, after all, what "Lock Her Up" was all about. Hillary committed flagrant crimes that you or I would be in prison over, had we committed them. Yet, she remains safe.
16) With gratitude, here I still remain. I can say "Lock Her Up," still. I still want her to find herself behind bars. I still believe she committed crimes what should be punished. And I am still able, so far, to say so. How about that?
17) In The Usual Suspects we are told that the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was to persuade us he does not exist. Genius. However, I have what may be an even greater trick he pulled to offer. He persuaded the righteous to fight each other, and not fight evil doers.
18) Reagan's 11th Commandment does not cover something. It fails to cover the evil doers in the Republican Party. They must be fought. We must master the art of the Primary. Yes, we do have evil doers in our party and they must be ousted.
19) But if we fail to recognize the opportunity to do right, we fail to be The Right. Stolen Election 2020 is just such an opportunity. We don't deserve it. We may only rise to meet it, to face it, to embrace and claim it, if we will. Can we restore American election integrity?
20) That we can, I am certain. Will we? Not quite as certain. We must come together. We must be grateful for the opportunities we do not deserve but that present each and every day in America. The Beatles commanded us...come together.
2) The image above is NOT a worldly image. It is not cynical. It is not sophisticated. There is a famous Democrat attack against fly-over country Republicans, as being smelly Walmart customers. I am a proud, smelly Walmart customer.
3) I know that Walmart itself, as a corporation, is compromised. I know it is a retail outlet for Made In China products. Slowly, I'm learning to look for such products and NOT buy them. But Walmart is bigger than its corporate bigwigs. It is part of true America.
2) I had never heard of Tucker before, so I've spent good parts of the past two days correcting that gap in my learning. It is what I've found in his work and life story that inspires today's meditation. I begin below with an extended quote...
3) "Whilst we were offering up vows at the shrine of Liberty, and sacrificing hecatombs upon her altars; whilst we swore irreconcilable hostility to her enemies, and hurled defiance in their faces;
In each segment of this analysis I'll provide the 21 ideas, and the 6 points that contain. Today's focus will be on the 2nd point. Recognition will always be given to @shestokas, my teacher.
2) Here's the list:
1) Hold 2) Truths 3) Self-Evident 4) Men 5) Created 6) Equal 7) Endowed 8) Creator 9) Unalienable 10) Rights 11) Life 12) Liberty 13) Pursuit Of Happiness 14) Secure 15) Governments 16) Instituted 17) Deriving 18) Just 19) Powers 20) Consent 21) Governed
3) The first three points:
1) We hold these truths to be self-evident 2) That all men are created equal 3) That they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights
I'll give you the list immediately below. I have to give credit to @shestokas for being my constant teacher. He will soon be Attorney General of the Great State of Illinois. Get ready for change.
3) From our Declaration of Independence, Dave has chosen 55 words which he calls the American Creed. I completely agree with him. These words are why America was formed. It's what our forefathers fought for. These ideas founded our nation.
2) General Flynn has famously called for an army of Citizen Journalists. The Q Movement (which was NO conspiracy) unleashed millions of patriot researchers. Those of you following here are needed. How, exactly, does this corruption occur?
3) So here's a voter roll. It has thousands, 100s of thousands, maybe even millions of of dead citizens still registered. How, exactly, are those votes voted? Is it in specific, by name? Such-and-so dead person's vote is..? Or, ...
