2) We'll talk about jobs in just a minute. First, I have to repeat and emphasize this request. Please help us get this video to as many people as possible. Joe's candidacy, this primary, are more important than most people might imagine, assuming they'd even heard of it.
3) If we do our job right, we'll roll forward from 100s to 1,000s, 10's of thousands, hundreds of thousands and beyond. For my part, I believe that millions, not only in Washington state, or America, but around the world NEED, desperately NEED to hear Joe's message.
4) But why? First, the left has obliterated the true basis of the #MAGA Movement. People round the world have no idea of our intellectual foundation, our spiritual principles, the high calling that demands we fight forward. @joekent16jan19 explains all this as no one else has.
5) Consider today's segment, American Jobs. Joe teaches us that we must reclaim this definition: a job out of high school, with purpose and growth for a lifetime, where one individual can support a two-parent family economically. This is the American Dream.
6) These are my words, but they're directly inspired by @joekent16jan19. Parenting is more than just a fulltime job, it is, in fact, a career. As we've allowed our economy to be whittled out, our jobs exported, our families are the direct victims.
7) What you hear in Joe's wisdom is a combination of tactical and strategic vision. It is tactically mandatory that we bring jobs back. It is strategically mandatory that we rebuild the economic strength of our families.
8) My coaching life beckons, so I'll have to come back and timestamp study and comment later today or tomorrow. In the meantime, please listen to Joe's message, and forward our interview as far and wide as you're able. More to come, soon as I may return...
9) By the time we get to 23:30, we've learned how the timber industry built the Pacific Northwest. That lumber has been devastated by over-regulation, and that we are actually importing timber, now. I still can't believe my ears. We import timber. Shocked.
10) Joe walks us through forest fires. Not only are the forests no longer managed by the greatest managers ever, the logging companies, not only does underbrush accumulate uncontrollably, even the roads - which used to be managed by the logging firms - are no longer accessible.
11) A bit after 24 minutes, Joe explains the combined power of the Federal Government over both regulations, on the one hand, and the land itself on the other. He guesses that the Feds own about 60% of the West. Imagine that.
12) Combine the two-fold forced of Federal Government control of environmental regulations, and its trillions of dollars worth of land holdings, and American jobs could be brought back almost instantly. Reduce regulations making them job friendly. That's one strike for good.
13) Then, start selling the land back to the people, allowing Americans to determine the best destiny of America. Between the two strategies jobs could come flooding back almost instantly. Over time, we can reclaim the American Dream.
14) At just before 25:40, @joekent16jan19 starts discussing the mills. Just listen in...
15) At 26:30 I cut back in, redirecting. Leading up to that, though, Joe explains that his district had the second largest timber mill in the world, employing at one point 2,000 workers. It's now down to about 100. Those jobs? All shipped overseas.
16) The Pacific Northwest, to of course include Microsoft, has led the way in the world's tech revolution. @joekent16jan19's district is absolutely tech ready. It's got ports and rivers with global portage reach. Move semiconductor production from Taiwan to WA-3.
17) Shipping in general, with vast river and port capability, as well as train reach into the rest of the US. Energy is another sector Joe's district can compete in. All the sexy renewables, to include wind and solar, are available of WA-3. This brings us to about 27:45 or so...
18) Here, pushing Joe as to what he can actually accomplish for his district, you want to truly listen to his answer. I've never heard an answer like this before. He names both Koch Industries and Georgia Pacific (for the 2nd time) as bad guys. I love that! But there's more...
19) @joekent16jan19 immediately owns the truth, you can't get the Biden Administration to do diddly on any of this. But you have to start the fight. He points to 2024 and Trump's return. But between now and then, there is a fight to be had. If he didn't have me before...
20) By 28:45 or so, we're up to incentives and tariffs. Joe would have no way of knowing that I worked intensively on tariffs over the years, but I do, and I'm telling you, he is 100% spot on. He thinks like Trump thinks, and that, my friends, is a great compliment!
21) Next GIGANTIC point. Since America believes in Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit Of Happiness, we'll never be able to compete over labor costs with China. They control labor via slavery. Zero is a hard number to match. Linger with Joe on this.
22) 29:45 brings us up to our 4th segment. We'll dive into that soon. Here, I'll close out with these general observations. How do you not like this guy? You don't. What you do is respect and love him. And please mind, there was no prep or scripting, all from is heart.
23) As you watch coming segments, pay special attention to logical relationships such as that between slave labor and tariffs. You pay no labor costs? Okay, we'll tariff you so highly that you'll just have to build your stuff here. Seems simple. It's pure genius.
24) One of the websites attacking @joekent16jan19 tells us he worked for the CIA, so he's obviously a bad man. How about that? Well, I dare them, watch this interview and tell me you're not watching a simply great guy, a great human. So much more to come!
Our #Joe4Congress Analysis ends at #24. Here again is the link to the interview. Do please share it as far and wide as you can!
2) Honestly, I was dreading the fact that I KNEW I'd have to watch, start, stop, and time stamp, @joekent16jan19's deep wisdom and incredible knowledge and vision for America. But then, the second magic moment happened. I documented this yesterday, here:
3) The first magic moment was the interview itself, of course. I knew almost nothing about Joe before. Moment by moment, he simply had me at the edge of my seat, if not falling off it completely. That is what leads to the second bit of magic. It's worthy of actual study.
2) Wow! Can't figure out about the link to Joe's video. If you go to his account, it should be up, there. But Twitter is not allowing me to paste it in above. Go figure, eh? So again, here's Joe's account where the video is posted: @joekent16jan19
3) Now, and with no further ado for the moment, here is a long-form interview I had the honor to record with Joe a few days ago. More on the interview will follow, below, but here it is for your viewing pleasure:
Follow them. Listen to them. Serve and support them as they have served and supported us. We need them in ways we have not yet understood.
2) Your first step is to go, right now, and follow @SandhillsKen right here at Twitter. Ken is a LtCol Ret. Army, right Ken? He led his warriors on the field as Special Operations commands. I can’t get him to tell me any more than that. I’ve tried.
3) @SandhillsKen does both lead a local movement and has an outstanding website. When you go there, and I’ll give you some screenshots below, you want to subscribe and donate. Here’s his site:
Imagine if you will, a nation where babies are safe within the womb. Where murdering babies is the most terrible act, and one simply never done. Where the miracle of life is sacred.
2) @shestokas has taught me to believe in such progress. He points out to me that once slavery was enshrined in law, with all the majesty that law imparts. Evil and contrary to every aspect of our creed as a people, it existed lawfully until it was make illegal.
3) We may argue over the morality of contraception. Many reject it. I do not. But I do reject every form of abortion, to include the day after pill. Murder by pill is still murder. And yes, with great agony, I have accepted the term "murder," as the only one appropriate.
I considered (and then rejected) the idea of entitling today's analysis like so:
Rights, Rule Of Law, Life, Murder
Rejecting the title, we're going right there anyway. The decision to end a life, purposefully, is murder.
2) You may believe me when I tell you, I thought long and hard before I hit "Tweet" above. I know that, for me personally, there is no going back after posting that. For the rest of my life, even if I were to recant, I will always be judged by the above statement. Always.
3) I have granddaughters who may never speak to me again. I will lose business in my coaching practice. While far from the first to use the term "murder" on topic, having done so, I may never take it back. And I am doing so. Abortion is murder. It is not a right.
Of the 15 points made, we’ll analyze points 11 – 15 below…
2) And here are all 15 points:
3) We need to pick up at #10, to understand #11. @shestokas has faced judges, defending churches against unconstitutional closures. I often say to him I just can't imagine what he's experienced. This is another. How can a judge even hear such a case in America?
