In 1787, as Benjamin Franklin left the final session of the Constitutional Convention, he was asked what form of government the delegates had given America. “A Republic,” he answered, “if you can keep it.”
Spoiler alert: we didn’t.
In 1963, Leonard Read warned Americans that “our once-upon-a-time Republic” was degenerating into something else; "we are headed into a kakistocracy,” he wrote.
Kakistocracy means "government by the worst." Read particularly liked James Russell Lowell’s definition: “a government… for the benefit of knaves at the cost of fools.”
We now know there is a mass of contradictory information regarding COVID after irreversible damage has been done following the vaccinations. Over 80% of Americans were baited, bullied, badgered, browbeaten, or blackmailed to get the jab without thorough knowledge and thoughtful consideration.
We were assured by “the scientists” and “revered health officials” that the rushed vaccines were “safe and effective,” only to learn they are not safe nor effective.
All over the western world, the United Nations is forcing countries to accept foreigners who claim to be refugees but are nothing more than economic country shoppers looking for a good deal. I don’t know about you, but I am sick of it.
I am sick and tired of woke idiots telling me what to do, what to eat, what to drive and what to think.

Throughout history, assassins would use poison to try and rid themselves of their target. The person in power was vulnerable to attack and one of the easiest ways of ridding their adversary ( their political opponent ) was to poison them.
It was normally administered in their food or drink and, in a few short moments, the opposition was removed.
It became customary to employ an official food taster who had the dubious honour of eating a sample of the meal or sipping from the cup. If the taster failed to die, then the person in power deemed it safe to eat their meal and sup their wine.

More than six years ago, World Economic Forum (WEF) founder Klaus Schwab gave an interview in which he promised that an implantable “global health pass” microchip would be unveiled within the next 10 years to track and control all of humanity.
Even though the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) had not yet been unveiled by the medical deep state, Schwab already knew that a catalyst was soon to come that would forever change the landscape of our world.
A boomerang is an ancient weapon created by Australian Aboriginal ( Indigenous ) People. It was and is a hunting weapon. If it hit its target, the boomerang could be used for the future.
If, on the other hand, the weapon missed its target, it would come back to wait until it could be hurled at another time to harvest its prey.
Trump is a master boomerang hurler. He throws the boomerang out and sometimes it hits and sometimes it misses. But he always knows his target. When he misses, the prey, whether it be a " kangaroo ", a " snake " or a wayward " lizard ", the object of his aim will always know that it was nearly a victim and it feels the fear of the next attack.

Why do the Democrats hate him? Why do leaders of Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and other Nations around the world find him so hard to accept?
Is it hatred or fear?
Why do people in power from around the world, and within his own Nation fear him so much? After all, he had lowered unemployment to record levels, increased wages, reduced taxes and overseen the American economy booming. American manufacturing was thriving... and he was taken down by those who despised him and what he had done. Why is that?
Anyone who attended school in years gone by has heard of this remarkable woman. The woman who came from a privileged British background and gave birth to the modern movement we know as Nursing
If only we looked at her matter of fact approach to the care of the ill, perhaps we would not be in the mess we find ourselves in today where commonsense has been obliterated by scientific models and political agendas.

Upon returning to my computer this afternoon I discovered an irate e-mail from the mother of a George Mason University freshman. Here’s my reply to her.
Ms. L__:
I’m dismayed to learn from your e-mail that, because you’ve just discovered that I endorse the Great Barrington Declaration, you’re demanding that your son transfer out of my upcoming Econ 103 course. That decision, obviously, is for you and your son to make. You should advise your son to do what you think best.
But you took time to write to accuse me of “intellectual incompetence,” so I’ll take a moment to defend myself.
In the first year of the pandemic, a team from Otago University in New Zealand (my former university) published an interesting study that provided some explanation for the strong public support for lockdown measures. This support came despite known or predicted collateral harms, including loss of livelihoods, elevated mortality from neglect of other diseases and ailments, “deaths of despair” from greater loneliness, and police abuses.
The 1993 film Demolition Man saw some parts of our future clearly—and reminds us there are many shades of dystopia.
I haven’t thought about the movie Demolition Man in a long time, but this changed recently when it was brought to my attention that the film is now nearly 30 years old.
