As many state and regional leaders crush their small business owners under the weight of insufferable and unscientific COVID-19 restrictions, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis goes in the exact opposition direction. Governor DeSantis highlights his concern about the economic and financial impact to businesses and workers in the state.
The Florida Governor holds a press conference at a local restaurant today promising that all small business owners, restaurants and bars in the state will remain open and free to conduct business. COVID-19 will be managed, but we will not destroy families with arbitrary rules and dictates holding no foundation in science. God Bless DeSantis !
This is exactly the type of common sense leadership that is needed.
COMMENT: So now something that has been on the books for 95 years is suddenly a problem and UNCONSTITUTIONAL? So now it`s unfair to 1 man who in 4 years his only major accomplishment was to pass a tax break that the bulk of the tax break only benefited the top 1% ? In which that allowed him to go back to Mar a Lago and brag to the members who had there membership fee`s to the club raised after he was elected and say… I Just Made You People A Lot Of Money. So I think you can see how people who do not think Trump is our Lord & Savior and just look at facts might not see this as an end of the world scenario you want to put forth on your blog. CN REPLY: This is not about one man and what is coming will not benefit the 1% – only the 0.005% – the Super-Rich. This is not about taxes. Like Hillary or Gates, they set up foundations that are tax-free and get to use their money to play monopoly with the world. The refusal to decide a question of law is the end of civilization. If they rule against Trump or for him is not the issue. The FAILURE to rule will leave both sides hating each other and both claiming they are right.
Congress reduced the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court to discretion. So many people have suffered from arbitrary law and that denies the equal protection of the law because one circuit will practice something different than the rest of the nation. New York allows judges to change the very words spoken in court by altering the transcripts which is a federal crime. The Second Circuit claims they have no power to tell judges to obey the law. UNITED STATES v. ZICHETTELLO, 208 F3d 72, 97 (2d Cir 2000).
Try standing before a judge who has dementia and forgets even who you are. (OWEN-Life Tenure for Federal Judges Raises Issues of Senility, Dementia – ProPublica). Judges protect judges. There is NOBODY you can turn to when faced with a judge would has lost his mind. Judge Owen is even mentioned to have “incurable ‘senile dementia’” in books. He was a public disgrace but never would the court of appeals EVER criticize him or recuse him from any case. They called him 100-Year Owen for that was his favorite sentence.
Or when you have one judge who is trying to do the right thing and the government has to always win so they go to the chief judge to have the case removed and sent to a pro-government judge who rules only for the government and then they seal your docket so nobody can review what they have done. This is your rule of law and discretion at the Supreme Court allows them to violate their oath and avoid cases they do not want to have to admit the government has acted corruptly or in my case protected the bankers as always!
I feel sorry for you because you cannot see beyond your bias. This is not about Trump and if he has the evidence it should be reviewed for everyone to see. These judges have all used procedures to avoid ruling on anything of substance. In Wisconsin, they dismissed his case on the procedure and simply said he should have argued that before the election – avoid the issues once again. This is not what the rule of law is all about.
When judges refuse to enforce the law, the ONLY solution remaining to the people is a revolution.
Just ask yourself, why are the Super-Rich always pouring money into the pocket of Democrats? So they will go after them? A small business owner is the hated 1% yet the press cheers the super-rich and calls them our friends! Open your eyes. The corruption is all around you. You will lose your freedom and that of the future for your children because you will not look at the reality that surrounds you.

COMMENT FROM GERMANY: Back then during the days of the Berlin Wall, it was still possible to circumvent a wall with the audacity of some really bold guys…Today in a state of full surveillance it may be quite impossible…Certain virtues are totally gone.
Today I am reading in DIE ZEIT the suggestion to make the vaccination against COVID mandatory in every public building, including the railway station, public transportation, etc…That is pretty scary to hear this from a Newspaper that used to be one of the best weekly papers. Yes, we are heading into a very dark future that very much resembles our road to fascism.
Of course, I will try to stay as long as possible in Germany, that is where my work is and my family.
REPLY: This is the plan. They cannot tolerate dissent. Stalin rounded up those who he thought might join a revolution against him and it is estimated that 20 million were killed in his labor camps. This vaccine will be used in the same manner. If you refuse to take it, you will be confined to prison which will be your home. It will all depend upon those who resist. If they fail to do so in a serious manner, then the tyrant overlords will be thrown out at the end of the cycle – 2032. Let us not hope we must live under this tyranny for that long. In 2021. it will be the 60th anniversary of the rise of the Berlin Wall.
The press is all lined up and is supporting the end of freedom.
The technocrats of modern globalism have a way of carrying inappropriate gleefulness as they laugh, smile and pontificate their detachment from life under their control.
Thus the ever present smirk, smile and laughter from Bill Gates as he describes how workers on Main Street USA must accept their economic destruction as part of their larger responsibility to the global community. Don’t forget to wash your hands as you plate the Golden Sushi containing edible gold-leaf and precious pearls. Smiles everyone, smiles.
Pfizer has readied a COVID-19 vaccine that will soon be rolled out. Trump hailed it as a ‘medical miracle.’ I must disagree with our president in this instance. The real miracle is our own immune system. Regardless, the new vaccine will also come with a heavy dose of politics. That much is certain. The push will soon be on for everyone to take a rushed-to-market vaccine with inadequate testing and questionable contents and results.
There will be a greater chance of people dying from the vaccine than the coronavirus itself. When people suffer from debilitating side-effects, they can always sue the vaccine manufacturers, right? No. The makers are ‘immune’ from lawsuits. Instead the taxpayers pay the tab in a special vaccine court. The vaccine makers pay nothing. When there are is no punishment for an egregious mistake, it only makes the vaccine manufacturers more responsible, right? No. If there is zero accountability, then quality control and reliability inevitably suffers. The vaccine makers take no risk, but they rake in a big reward. Those inoculated take all the risk.
At first, the politicians will try to make getting vaccines a happy event. It’s ‘science’ they say. Aren’t you happy to get it so we can end the pandemic? It won’t end anything. Social distancing and the masks will remain. Even Dr. Fauci said this. If we refuse to take their vaccine, we will soon enter the bargaining phase. “You will get a bailout check if only you take the vaccine.” From there, it will quickly morph into the threat phase. “You can’t travel without proof of the vaccine.” Then more conditions will be added. You won’t be able to travel at all without proof. Your kids won’t be able to go to school without it. You won’t be able to buy stuff at stores. Amazon included. Without vaccination you must stay in place. If you don’t, you will be arrested. Even if you do stay home, they know where you are. Makes it easier for them to round up the unvaccinated and pack them off to a gulag.
If you go along, the vaccines will become more regular and numerous. Eventually you will be dying of cancer or some other disease due to the vaccine. If a lot of people get sick at once, they’ll blame it on some new virus and victimize the victims even more with endless injections.
Because of a fake pandemic with a very high survivability rate, we’re now entering a very dangerous period of medical tyranny. The elitists running the world want to control what goes into our bodies. They want us culled. We must stand up for ourselves and say NO!
ANSWER: Yes. They need to go back to the Supreme Court and argue that the Judiciary Act of 1925 is UNCONSTITUTIONAL because it created discretion to hear cases when the Supreme Court is the ONLY court created by the Constitution.
The Supreme Court made it abundantly clear that “The Supreme Court alone possesses jurisdiction derived immediately from the Constitution, and of which the legislative power cannot deprive it.” Stevenson v Fain, 195 US 165, 167 (1904). In Reid v Covert, 384 US 1, 41 (1987) this Court quoted Lord Coke: “God send me never to live under the law of conveniency or discretion.” The jurisdiction of this Court was created by the Constitution. It requires an amendment to the constitution to alter that jurisdiction, not a statute passed by Congress. Therefore, the Judiciary Act of 1925 is unconstitutional.
The only court required by the Constitution is the Supreme Court and every Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States are required to take two oaths before they may execute the duties of their appointed office – (1) the Constitutional Oath to defend it and (2) the Judicial Oath.
Therefore, anyone can see on its face that the Judiciary Act of 1925 is unconstitutional for it violates their oath to defend the constitution when they have the discretion to not hear cases. Previously, the Supreme Court ruled and ignored this time when it defined “discretion” by saying “the term ‘discretion’ denotes the absence of a hard and fast rule.” Langnes v Green, 282 US 531, 541 (1931). This means that those in power do not have to obey any law, even the Constitution. The Supreme Court also said, “it is obvious that discretion does not exist where there is no power to act except in one way.” Jones v SEC, 298 US 1, 18 (1936). When judges and politicians claim discretion, they claim to be ABOVE the law of men.
Trump is so outnumbered it is alarming. The Deep State has been after his ass since he took office. The world needs him for he is really the only person standing in the way of Klaus Schwab and crew. I have warned that these people are EXTREMELY dangerous and they have no idea what they are doing insofar as the West will never rise again. They are using the lockdowns, not for a virus, but they are using lockdowns for climate change. They will try to criminally prosecute Trump to prevent him from running again in 2024 as he has said he would do. It was John Kerry who said at Davos that a Great Reset was urgently needed to stop the rise of populism. Kerry vowed that under a Biden administration, America would rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement to push the Great Reset but added, that this was “not enough.”
“What did surprise us is we hadn’t really thought through the economic impacts. What happens when you have a pandemic that’s running rampant in populations all over the world? The fact that we would all be home, and working from home if we were lucky enough to do that. That was a piece that I think we hadn’t really prepared for.”
I doubt she is telling the truth. These people really did not understand what their scheme would cost the West and thought they could build back better in a short time period. Like Schwab, they think they can simply rebuild it and hand out some money for those who lost their jobs. They never took into consideration how they would totally destroy our way of life with these lockdowns and that there will NEVER be a return to “normal” by any stretch of the imagination.
The arrogance of these people who will NEVER know hardship is just amazing thinking they can recreate society. They are responsible for all the suicides taking place because people lost everything. In Japan, there were more people who died by suicide than COVID, and these people just smile. They NEVER considered that at least 40% of the workforce cannot work from home and what would happen to these people. It was all about getting to ZERO CO2.
The Supreme Court has blood on their hands for their refusal to address this election on the facts – good, bad, or indifferent. The Supreme Court may think it is acting like Pontius Pilate and they have no blame and try washing all the blood from their hands. History will not judge them so kindly.
Note: Forward this to every politician and every lawyer you can think of!
Many of my regular readers have seen this Latin phrase which is now my title and it reads: “If you want peace, prepare for war.” Wherein no truer words could describe the dire situation America finds itself in today.
As everyone knows by now that the SCOTUS has turned its back on our Constitutional Republic, which is best stated by …
“Yet despite overwhelming, irrefutable evidence of blatant election rigging, fraud, and foreign interference, local judges are too corrupt to hear the cases, district courts are too corrupt to decide on the cases, and the highest court in the land is too corrupt to even grant the case legal standing.”
“America has been plunged into lawlessness by the US Supreme Court. There is no coming back from the path of emerging history that SCOTUS has just set into motion, and this path will be slathered with the blood of patriots and tyrants.“ Mike Adams then concludes with: “The question now is: Will [President] Trump find the courage to give the order?”
Allow me to answer that burning question by offering the following food-for-thought: It is my solemn belief that our Lion, President Donald John Trump, is the greatest strategist in our time and author of ‘The Art of The Deal’, just as his mentor, Sun Tzu, was the author of ‘The Art of War’ wherein he advised that:
“All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when we are able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must appear inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.”
President Trump’s greatest successes came because none of the now declared enemies knew what his next move would be. As his son Don, Jr. once offered, my father is like the big ugly monster in a scary movie that everyone fears because they never know what he is doing, or more importantly, where he is—and then suddenly he is right behind them—and they panic!!!
“Appear weak when you are strong and strong when you are weak.”
The Deep State made the tactical error of believing their own lies, that President Trump was a stupid fool. Fools do not plan for over two years (September 12, 2018 EO) to entrap their enemy.
Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win.”
President Donald John Trump is a world class strategic planner and has won these battles hundreds of times in his mind and within his inner circle.
And, my hands-down-favorite:
“In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity.”
Speed of response and massive, simultaneous, actions will be the keys to our success. Meaning—hitting many of the major players at precisely the same time. BAM…!
Unfortunately, there is no other road back to our Constitutional Republic, as Benjamin Frankly once said “…if YOU can keep it! “In the history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the roll of defending freedom in its maximum hour of danger. We are that generation! This is our role: Freedom must be defended!” – Unknown author
And so we pray once more—Here we are Lord, if not us, then who? Who will deliver us from this evil? We know Your Guiding Hand will be there with us. Please let us know what it is that you want us to do.
Once again, if you truly want peace, you must prepare now for war. There are many relatives, friends and neighbors who will not heed this call and, for that reason, they may pay the ultimate price.
“If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my children (and six grandchildren) may live in peace.” – Thomas Paine.
Many people talk of a foreboding sense. A sense that something is very close to erupting on the surface. I believe, and have said for months, the final eruption will come as a result of overreach by control authority in reference to COVID dictates. We are close.
In Washington State the entire town of Mossyrock has united to defy the COVID-19 dictatorial fiats of the State Governor Jay Inslee. This is how the rebellion will succeed.
WASHINGTON STATE – Mossyrock Mayor Randall Sasser said he had talked with people from around the state who had come to help out. Steve Hurst said he came from Olympia because he thinks the governor is overstepping his power. (read more)
The power of government comes from the people; or as we say in the U.S. “from the consent of the governed.” When the people lead, the politicians are forced to follow.
Without implied consent the municipal or state government has no power. None.
As a result, the nonsense ends when the majority of We The People no longer give our consent. How do We The People retract our consent? We simply refuse to comply.
When the majority of people simply refuse to comply with unilateral dictates, and laugh in the faces of those who attempt to enforce them, the government no longer has power.
If one person refuses to comply, the government or control authority can, and likely will, intervene. However, if tens of thousands rebuke these unconstitutional decrees, there isn’t a damn thing govt can do to stop it… and they know it. A non-compliant snowball becomes an unstoppable freedom avalanche.
Local, regional and state officials know they can control the behavior of an individual. If one barber shop opens, the owner becomes a target. However, those officials also know they cannot control the behavior of the majority. If every barber shop and beauty salon in town opens… there is absolutely nothing the government can do about it.
If one restaurant and/or bar opens, the state can target the owner. But if every bar and restaurant in town opens; and if everyone ignores and dispatches the silly dictates of the local, regional or state officials; there isn’t a damned thing they can do about it.
The power of the local, regional or state authority comes from the expressed consent of the people. As soon as the majority of people in that municipality deny that consent, those officials and state authoritarians lose all of their power.
Yes, it really is that simple.
They want you to think otherwise, but it is not true. If WE THE PEOPLE demand freedom and stand together the control authority is useless.
Those who construct the systems of control need to weaponize fear. Fear of arrest; fear of losing a business; fear of losing liberty or financial security. Local, regional and state officials rely on fear. As soon as the people are no longer fearful, the control ends.
The overwhelming majority of dictates around COVID-19 mitigation are not laws. There was no debate; no input from representative government; and no option for the public to weigh-in on the decisions.
All unilateral rules are arbitrary, and despite many proclamations to the contrary, they rely upon voluntary compliance. As soon as citizens no longer voluntarily comply, the term of the rules has expired. If masks are so effective then why didn’t government give masks to prisoners, instead of releasing the inmates?
Liberty is inherent.
The removal of liberty requires consent.
..”If the public are bound to yield obedience to laws to which they cannot give their approbation, they are slaves to those who make such laws and enforce them.”..
In another exhibition of COVID madness, the governor of New York has banned indoor eating in New York City to stem the spread of the virus. However, the state’s own data shows a mere 1.4 percent of COVID-19 cases can be traced to restaurants.
It seems absolutely ridiculous when you think about proximity endeavors. Consider that airplanes, buses and trains have no social distancing at all – while restaurants were only allowed to operate at 25 percent capacity. Now restaurants can have no indoor service.
[New York Post] … In Manhattan, the capital of America’s restaurant business with more places, seats and customers than anywhere else, the new-infection rate is a mere 2.5 percent, compared with 5 percent in the state overall.
Yet absurdly, indoor dining is still allowed in most of the state including in areas with much higher infection rates.
The indoor ban’s the most painful to restaurant workers and to owners who went beyond the last mile to comply with the ever-changing rules for indoor and outdoor dining. (more)
Meanwhile…. Governor Cuomo plans to have a birthday bash:
Any thinking person can detect that forces are pushing us into a period of dangerous change. There is something nefarious in the air. Sometimes, reality that is foreign to anyone’s experience is hard to grasp. And so, we have millions of people confused as to what is actually happening.
In spite of stealing an election, the Left will have us believe they won the political and cultural war and now are in the process of removing the bodies in Washington, poised to take over. They are continuing to take down the symbols, the culture, the habits, much like Mao destroyed the Four Old Things, with 2 million dead, during his Cultural Revolution of 1966-1976… Old Customs, Old Culture, Old Habits, and Old Ideas.
The Left says our culture is filled with reminders and symbols of national sins, slavery and oppression. And yet, they are working toward developing their own slavery, and oppression, using their own brand of tyranny.
The Left has entered into an alliance with the Globalists and the Chinese Communist Party
The Left has entered into an alliance with the Globalists and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Russia has been swept aside as a communist failure.
The CCP is not successful because they are innovative, commercially or technically. Their achievements prevail because they are thieves. Their technology is our technology. The Chinese communists have purchased their way into our country by too many of us willing to sell. The Chinese are everywhere, Big Tech, the media, our corporations, education, and in the offices and beds of our politicians. And, they are in Canada. They have paid for and developed close relationships in the upper echelons of both our governments, including the Biden crime family. The CCP is setting up cells at universities all across America. The CCP has latched on to our freedom, not to copy it, but to use it to destroy us.
COVID was manufactured in China, the origin for so many novel diseases, as a last resort to remove Trump, as a cover and a dessert after the main meal, the United States. It is not a real pandemic. After watching scores of medical doctor’s testimonies, one can only conclude there is no real medical emergency. The World Health Organization, a highly political body, reports death rates all over the map. If you press them, they say that about 750 million people world-wide have been infected with COVID-19 with 1.04 million deaths. If you do the math the infection fatality rate is 0.1386%, similar to the 2018 seasonal flu with a rate of 0.1355%. The Spanish Flu, which killed some 50 – 100 million people had a world mortality rate of between 2.7% and 5.4% (PJ Media, Our World in Data).
Every death is a tragedy, but If you are vulnerable to COVID, by all means protect yourself. Do not expect the world to stop, putting millions at risk for bankruptcy and ruin.
COVID-19 is a political tool being used by globalists, the CCP and the Democrat Party to move the world into a totalitarian socialist government system. If they have their way, the world you once knew will never be coming back. The lockdowns and the scare tactics are not about your health.
This ‘pandemic’ has birthed millions of fraud-ridden mail-in ballots
This ‘pandemic’ has birthed millions of fraud-ridden mail-in ballots, as a planned by-product of COVID, concentrated in battleground states, to poison our election process. It has fabricated a failed economy. Millions of Americans are desperate for aid and they will soon look to anyone who can help.
While many Republicans remain strangely, but not surprisingly, quiet, Democrats go about their business finalizing their plans for the takeover, completing the coup. The Democrats are busy, intent on representing every race, color, sexual and gender preference in their choices of more swamp creatures for the proposed Biden cabinet. The experienced or religious need not apply, except if you’re Muslim. But, Joe Biden will be nothing more than a footnote, a useful idiot in the Left’s struggle to turn America into a socialist nation.
In the meantime, no one seems to be caring about or tracking the carnage of small businesses, or the demise of the middle class for that matter. These businesses are closing by the tens of thousands. 40% of restaurants will be permanently closed by March, almost 40% of heart attack patients go untreated because of the pre-occupation with COVID.
Fear not, the Left is here with all the answers, a new ‘Democratic’ Socialist society that will ‘wash’ our culture of old ideas like capitalism, and Judeo-Christianity. They will bring us new old ideas like socialism, total equality regardless of personal industry, and political correctness, complete with censorship and tyranny. Say or write the wrong thing, get fired or censored, all for the common good. It is happening now.
Our culture has changed drastically in 50+ years of constant Progressive bombardment. Nabisco is selling their Ritz Crackers with two gay men wearing lipstick. Large corporations care nothing of morality, only money.
This is no time to be faint of heart, to shrink into the background. It’s a time to find your courage, to protect what you hold dear
The Left, with their affinity for China, is pushing us into a Chinese-style Cultural Revolution. Schools everywhere are being renamed, statues destroyed, removing the symbols, the names associated with ‘oppression’…people like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison. The Judeo-Christian culture is under full assault. Churches are being closed or attendance severely restricted. Gatherings, especially of potential patriotic ‘trouble-makers’ are being outlawed while Left-wing rioters are hands off. All because Democrats are concerned for our health.
If our Supreme Court should fail in their duty to preserve and protect our Constitution, all confidence in the law of the land will be lost by at least half of the nation. That will be the last peaceful attempt at safeguarding our country from a hostile takeover. As a result, a movement toward secession or even civil war could take shape.
This is no time to be faint of heart, to shrink into the background. It’s a time to find your courage, to protect what you hold dear. We will either have a political solution where the law and the Constitution is upheld, or we will have a military solution where bodies of the dead will pile up in the streets. Which will it be?
