1) BACK TO BASICS

There are so many of you who are new followers that you probably haven't seen a lot of my longer screeds that explain some of my positions. So I'd like to take a moment this morning to review.

2) Basic 1: The DemoKKKrats are the Party of Slavery. Why?
2) contd. As explained in my "Seven Events that Made America" & in "Patriot's History of the US," in 1820 Martin Van Burn, state congressman from NY, was jolted (as was Jefferson) by passage of the Missouri Compromise.

3) This concerned him because he thought it meant civil war. His reasoning: the MC set an imaginary line (34/30) at the bottom of Missouri: any new state entering the Union ABOVE that line MUST be free (virtually all). At the time, Dakotas, MN, IA, NE, KS, ID, WY, MT, CO.
4) To MVB, this meant that very soon, the free states could vote slavery out of existence. He knew the South wouldn't tolerate that. War would follow.

5) His solution was brilliant & horrific & affects us to this day.

6) Create a new political party.
7) This new party HAD to somehow attract anti-slave northerners or "don't care" northerners as well as southerners. How?

8) Bribe them. Give them jobs--party jobs, gubment jobs (local, state, fed)--in return for getting out the vote for the party.
9) The better you were at getting out the vote, the higher you rose in the job/$ structure.

10) This ENSURED gubment at all levels would grow steadily from then on. Always.

11) But there was a little more to his scheme.
12) They party MUST preserve & protect slavery. Remember, an attack on slavery meant civil war.

13) So--review--MVB set up a new political party called the DemoKKKrats to PROTECT AND PRESERVE SLAVERY.

14) A Guy named Jesus said you can't get good fruit from a bad tree.
15) That's why, ultimately, there can be no "good DemoKKKrats." They are ALL from a "bad tree" of slavery.

16) But MVB still needed more to prevent a war. STATES had to supercede the federal gubment. ("States' rights"). Always remember, the phrase "states rights" . . .
16) contd . . . whatever it means later, in THAT day meant "states' rights to have slavery." That's ALL it meant. Don't give me garbage about the "tariff." That was a facade for opposition to emancipation.

17) Last, MVB needed the presidency.
18) This is where it got a little tricky. He knew no southern slaveholder as of 1821 would ever again be elected president. But "westerners" (such as Andy Jackson or Harrison or Polk) were acceptable, deemed "free" of slavery (even though all had owned slaves at one time).
19) The other option than a westerner was a northerner who would support slavery by inaction. As one historian put it, "a northern man of southern principles."

20) Armed with the new "spoils system" of paying people to get out the vote, DemoKKKrats dominated til 1860.
20) They did have opposition after 1830--a RINO-type party called the Whigs. What was interesting about the Whigs was that they like the modern RINOs wanted to avoid the "big issues" (abortion now, slavery then). So they never took a stand on slavery. "Do what you want."
21) Not surprisingly, we only had two Whig presidents (Harrison & Taylor). Both died in office. Neither did a damned thing before they died. EXCEPT . . .

22) Did I mention that the "spoils system" caused gubment to grow? Even with one party? Now you have two.
23) What did you have to do to get elected? Give away jobs. Except now you have two parties COMPETING to give away jobs.

24) Gubment growth accelerated, even under so-called "small gubment" guys like Jackson. Couldn't help it. It's called the "Spoils System" or patronage.
25) So beginning with MVB gubment grows & gets more power with every election but slavery appears safe cuz you have a westerner (Harrison, Polk, Jackson) or a "northern man of southern principles" (no dealing w slavery) every election (Taylor, Pierce, MVB, Fillmore, Buchanan)
26) They do flip flops to avoid touching slavery.

27) And DemoKKKrats had the Supreme Court since 1836.

28) The infamous Roger Taney, Chief Justice from MD, rendered the worst decision in American history prior to Roe,Dred Scott.

29) THAT decision caused the Panic of 1857.
30) Meanwhile in 1855 you got a new party, one that for the first time ever took up the issue of slavery. Admittedly, it was only slavery in the territories--I'll explain in another thread why that was critically important--but they did take up the issue.
31) Right out of the box, a party that stood for freedom nearly won the election of 1856. They needed only 3 states.

32) Then came the thunderbolt. In 1860, Abraham Lincoln, a Republican--a NORTHERN MAN OF NORTHERN PRINCIPLES--won. Guess what he now headed?
33) This big, powerful gubment that had grown steadily for 30 years--but nobody noticed cuz it was in the "right hands."

34) Uh oh. Now it's in the "wrong" hands.

35) If this sounds familiar, this is EXACTLY what happened in 2016 when the . . .
35) contd . . . massive, spoils-driven, RINO/DemoKKKrat gubment that had controlled things since Reagan fell into the hands of one

Donald John Trump.

1) The latest demonic PR campaign is to try now to get the alternate electors from Arizona indicted. This is led by the hyenapickle phony AG Mayes.

2) The focus-grouped memo term they are using is "fake electors."

3) No such thing.
4) In 1960 (I won't review the circumstances again) Hawaii quickly certified one candidate and approved a set of electors that was sent in; but then the governor approved a different set and a recount led to a third set.

5) ALL reached the desk of the President of the Senate.
6) In that case, it was Richard Nixon, who had an incentive to accept the slate saying HE won. He took the recount, most recent, slate saying JFK won.

7) None of those were "fake." They were all legitimate because it is up to the Veep/President of the Senate to decide . . .

1) A little study in humility:

In the 1990s we joined a small church that had a ROCKIN' band. But I thought I was a better drummer than the fellow they had.

I spoke to the music director/pianist, who said, "No we're set."
2) The pastor overheard the conversation and said, "If you want to serve we have a need."

I said, "What?"

He said "Vacuuming the church, cleaning the windows, and doing the toilets."
3) While I was in part offended---"here I am a guy who opened concerts in front of 10,000 people"---I said, "Of course."

4) Dutifully I showed up for a few months, doing my absolute best. The toilets sparkled.

THREE GREAT ROCK AND ROLL ACCIDENTS

1) In 1968, Peter Tork of the "Monkees" had a party in Laurel Canyon, most likely at Joni Mitchell's house. Steve Stills, David Crosby, & Graham Nash were there and Nash pulled out a Stills song, saying, "let's sing this."
2) Although pairs of them had sung together before, this was the first time all three collaborated.

Nash said, "Whatever sound Crosby, Stills, and Nash has was born in 30 seconds. That's how long it took us to harmonize."
3) Accident number 2: Legendary producer George "Shadow" Morton (see below with my director Marc Leif & friend Esteban Lopez during filming of my movie "Rockin' the Wall") who had discovered Janis Ian, produced Vanilla Fudge, and by then was doing a new group called . . . .

I will do a full review of "Breaking History" by Jared Kushner later, but two parts stand out.

First, while many of us disagreed with H.R. McMaster on some of his positions, according to Kushner he was a loyal soldier who pushed back but when Trump decided, the totally complied
Second, John Kelly was an absolute snake. He not only pettily tried to expand his little kingdom, moving to keep Kushner out of meetings---when Trump trusted him because he didn't leak & got crap done!---but are you ready for this? . . .
Kelly listened in on Trump's phone calls without informing the President.

Folks the ONLY question that should ever be asked is not "Why didn't Trump do x?" But
HOW IN THE HELL DID HE DO ANYTHING?

1) I know Dobbs, Aff Action, and the 2A cases were sexier, but in the long term, the Court probably did more damage to the Deep State in the 2 EPA cases and the 5th Circuit's SEC case than you can imagine.
2) Unlike Dobbs or Bruen, you won't see a change instantly, but the Court & Fifth have deeply wounded the Swamp/Administrative State's ability to set its own rules and expand.
3) No one noticed at the time because of his goofy logic on Obamacare, but buried within that decision John Roberts severely undercut the ability of the Administrative State to use the Commerce Clause to expand. So they have no fall-back now.

1) Brief review of @barnes_law on his segment tonight;

2) The Hunter Biteme case is so extraordinarily out-of-bounds of even federal REQUIREMENTS that it could only have come from Grand Moff Garland or his Deputy. This was top down.
@barnes_law 3) We do not know the extent of any IMMUNITY Hunter might have gotten in the plea deal.

4) Still thinks Rutabaga will pardon Trump due to the need to protect Hunter from other crimes.

5) False that Trump can't get attorneys to represent him. A few, but not many.
@barnes_law 6) (Zen Master agrees on this): the "speedy trial" requirement forced the trial to be listed in August, but almost no chance this goes to trial before November 2024.

For ex: once you get past Dec., we will be in election season and Barnes thinks no one will start a trial then.
