America needs a strong leader to restore law and order in our society. Our leadership has chosen to create division and cause neighbors to turn on neighbors. We are facing the highest national debt in US history, lower purchasing power, inflation that will not wane, a sharp wave in crime, a housing crisis, two proxy wars with a third on the way, and no one has taken a stand to calm the fear of uncertainty that has caused the people to lose all trust in government.
Where is the POTUS, the commander-in-chief? Not only do the American people need the president, but all of Washington needs a centralized authority figure to connect each branch and cabinet. One of the president’s primary roles is to ensure that all of Washington is working collectively, but our current president is nowhere to be found.
Joe Biden has addressed the public on fewer occasions than any other president in the past four decades. The Times wrote, “For anyone who understands the role of the free press in a democracy, it should be troubling that President Biden has so actively and effectively avoided questions from independent journalists during his term.”
The Times even endorsed Joe Biden during the 2020 US Presidential election, but now they are forced to admit that the president is a failure. “That systematically avoiding interviews and questions from major news organizations doesn’t just undermine an important norm, it also establishes a dangerous precedent that future presidents can use to avoid scrutiny and accountability. That is why [publisher A.G.] Sulzberger has repeatedly urged the White House to have the president sit down with The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, Reuters, CNN and other major independent news organizations that millions of Americans rely on to understand their government.”
The press secretary refuses to answer questions on behalf of the president. He has been seen with note cards that dictate which reporters he may call upon during Q&A sessions, and those reporters are equipped with pre-approved easy questions. All of this is a deliberate attempt to hide Joe Biden’s failing mental health, as he always misspeaks when not reading directly off of a teleprompter. And people want another four more years of this mess?
I reported in December that Biden had spent at least40% of his entire presidency on vacation. The man with arguably the most important job in the world has set the record for taking more time off than any other president, collectively absent for over a year of his first and hopefully last term. He has only held four events before 10 AM and around a dozen past 6 PM. His former Press Secretary, Jen Psaki, once said that he does nothing prior to 9 AM, but it is closer to 10 AM if you look at any of his public schedules.
How will Biden physically manage an additional four years when he is not fit enough to currently hold office? He has refused to take a mental health examination, but we simply do not need one at this point. A company would crumble if the person in charge was absent, avoidant, or dismissive of any real responsibilities. But we accept this level of incompetency for the person in charge of a nation?

Short of joining Hamas, there is nothing Joe Biden will not do to secure the Gen Z vote. The latest plan will “forgive” $7.4 billion worth of student loans, which brings the total of loan cancelations under Biden to $153 billion. This new wave will benefit 277,000 borrowers/voters and cost the American public $559,000,000,000.
The original student loan forgiveness plan backfired, plain and simple. Payments were frozen in March 2020 under the CARES Act when countless people were out of work, and the program made sense. Millions of people simply stopped paying their loans as they believed Biden’s campaign promise to make all student loans vanish into thin air. By July 2023, over 7.5 million borrowers had defaulted on their student loan payments. Millions more were set to default in September 2023, when the COVID provisions were set to end. The Department of Education then decided to create an “on-ramp” period until September 2024 so that anyone who missed a payment would not face consequences.
Biden has “forgiven” billions in student loan debt since then, adding to the overall deficit and taxpayer burden. Amid low polls and pushback from academics and universities, Biden has decided to introduce a new wave of loan forgiveness. He has implemented the SAVE plan which has quickly shot up in costs from $475 billion to $559 billion. The SAVE income-driven repayment plan bases payments on a percentage of discretionary income, but low-income borrowers may be completely off the hook from paying back the debt they agreed to take on.
“As long as there are people with overwhelming student loan debt competing with basic needs such as food and healthcare, we will remain relentless in our pursuit to bring relief to millions across the country,” Biden stated. What about the American public that has seen the value of their dollar decline drastically since Biden took office? Joe Biden is blatantly BUYING VOTES and ignoring the economic implications as our national debt is perhaps the largest threat to our national security.
Halting repayments after the government agrees to shut down the global economy is one thing. Saddling the average American with additional tax obligations is extortion and economic tyranny. No one will forgive your mortgage loan, for example, a cost you agreed to take on. Biden continues to hunt down the American public for taxes to pay for his ridiculous spending plans that only benefit him and a select group of voters. The expected cost of student loan redistribution to the taxpayers continues multiplying as Biden’s poll numbers drop.

COMMENT: I was on the Swarthmore campus this afternoon and couldn’t help but notice the same green tents as I’ve seen in some of the other Gaza protest pics. More evidence perhaps of a coordinated effort.

REPLY: Columbia University is canceling its large university-wide commencement ceremony amid ongoing pro-Palestinian protests. This is a major effort to bring back anti-semitism that will no doubt spread to the hatred of all Jews as was the case in Germany. There, it began with protests against the Jewish bankers. Then it was the Jewish shopkeepers; Then it was – what the hell – get all the Jews. Once this old hatred has been unleashed from the bottle, it may not be stuffed back in. Throw in the LEFT vs. RIGHT, rigged elections, and we are staring into the eyes of some very serious civil unrest that is scheduled for violence centered on the election. Those funders behind this movement will be enlisted to turn against the MAGA Republicans. The trick was to get them together first – and then expand the protests.
These Green Tents come with instructions confirming that this is a DELIBERATE effort to create civil unrest that will be used for the 2024 election as well. Despite all the new craze of fake fact-checkers have been defending Soros, Rockefeller, and Gates Foundations, claiming they are not funding all these Green Tents and major anti-semitism in the United States, the two of the organizers supporting the protests at Columbia University and on other campuses are Jewish Voice for Peace and IfNotNow. Both are supported by the Tides Foundation, which was seeded by Democratic megadonor George Soros and previously funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. It, in turn, supports numerous small nonprofits that work for social change and are involved in creating civil unrest in the United States.

These protests against Israel in favor of “Palestine” are the oldest trick in the book on how to wage war and demonize your enemy for support—the terrorists our info states that 40% of the invading Hamas force were not even Palestinian. You deliberately want the opposing force to kill civilians, so who can say they are horrible people and need to be eradicated – every last one. Just look at the stats from World War I. There were 40 million who died, and at best, only 23 million were military. An estimated total of 70–85 million people died in World War II, but the military deaths were less than 25 million.
It is the act of war itself that is the crime against humanity. The people are merely pawns on the chessboard, and nobody cares if you actually live or die. As Field Marshall Hermann Goring said at the Nuremberg Trials, it is always easy to drag the people into war.
The US was secretly shipping arms to Britain on passenger ships, deliberately hoping the Germans would kill civilians and they could use that as an excuse to get into the war. The Germans even took out advertisements warning people not to sail on that ship for they would sink it. Finally, it took 67 years for the USA to admit the Germans were correct, and there were armaments on that ship.
Zelensky knew when the Russians would invade, and he refused to tell the civilians so the Russians would kill as many as possible so he could get support from the West. When he admitted he knew to the Washington Post, he said if he warned people, he would have lost $7 billion.
The Wall Street Journal has reported that some people are being paid to create anti-Israeli protests. It has been alleged that the Gates Foundation funded part of the protests
along with the Rockefeller Foundation and, of course, the man who thinks there is no God, so he must assume that role – George Soros.
College students always think they know something when they know nothing of the world. In Vietnam, at least, they were being drafted and sent to die. Here, they live in comfort even in their green tents bought and paid for by the very people using them as the next generation of pawns.
Knowledge comes only gradually after you get your first paycheck. Until then, the youth are merely playdough for those looking to create political movements. Bill Murry had the best answer: how to teach your kids about the real government.

As a Christian, I believe the gospel in full, every letter.
The gospel says Jesus, a Jewish man – son of God – messiah, was handed over to be crucified (killed) by the chief priest, the elders, and the Jewish crowd which was prophesied in Isaiah 53.
— Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 (@RepMTG) May 5, 2024
The internet is in an uproar after the House of Representatives passed an antisemitism bill that outlaws a few common Christian beliefs based on verses found in the New Testament. No – the New Testament has not been banned. However, the ban is a new attack on both freedom of religion and free speech that may particularly target the Christian community. The Christians are merely the first in line, as this bill is the precursor for future legislation that simply outlaws numerous widely held religious beliefs.
Now the bill, passing 320-91 in the House, was presented as a means to prevent antisemitism in the wake of the University pro-Hamas protests. This particular law expands what is considered antisemitism, as there are already laws in place preventing individuals and businesses from targeting citizens based on their religious affiliations. “Right now, without a clear definition of antisemitism, the Department of Education and college administrators are having trouble discerning whether conduct is antisemitic or not, whether the activity we’re seeing crosses the line into antisemitic harassment,” Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y. stated. This bill has been primarily supported by Republicans, which some have found surprising (besides those who understand AIPAC lobbying) due to certain clauses within the bill.
“From the River to the Sea” and other phrases that call for the eradication of Israel will be prohibited. Cosplaying as Hamas or a terrorist organization should already be grounds for threatening harassment. Imagine if people were dressing up as ISIS and parading around on college campuses after 9/11? Absolutely despicable behavior.
The First Amendment’s Free Exercise Clause forbids the government from creating legislation that prohibits the free exercise of religion. The First Amendment also protects our right to free speech, but we cannot threaten or cause harm to others simply because of their race, gender, or religion as reaffirmed by the Fourteenth Amendment. States are required by the Fourteenth Amendment to abide by the Equal Protection Clause and prevent blatant discrimination, but there are loopholes that do not protect religious practices that could be seen as criminal, such as polygamy.
So where does Christianity come into play amid this bill? Afterall, Jews and Christians share the Old Testament story as do other Abrahamic religions. Jesus himself was a Jew, descendant of former and shared prophets, who worshipped in the Synagogues. The Christians believe Jesus came as the final prophet, Son of Man, so that those who seek him may find eternal life, while the Jews are still waiting on their final messiah. The problem many are finding within this bill is that it prohibits anyone from claiming that Jews were responsible for killing Jesus.
Pontious Pilate, King Herod, and the Roman authority responded to the pharisee’s repeated warnings that a mortal was claiming to be the Son of God, disturbing the peace, speaking blasphemy, and, most important to Rome, creating a following and potentially civil unrest. The pilot asked the crowd, primarily Jews, whether he should spare Jesus or a criminal named Barabbas. Jesus was crucified with the phrase “King of the Jews” above his head.
Would this new bill prohibit the verses found on this incident from publication? While that is unlikely, there are deeper implications. For you see, this has nothing to do with the Jews or any religious protections. The Republicans would not be championing this bill or ostracizing their Christian voter base if that were the case. This bill is a means for the government to usurp power by preventing religion from superseding government authority. If they pass this measure, what’s to say they won’t outlaw religions or religious texts that criticize homosexuality, for example, or questioning the government as a secondary authority.
America was once unified as a primarily Christian nation. As a relatively new nation, we were unable to keep that shared moral value. Governments have a long history of wiping out religion to usurp control. China for example only allows five religious groups to register with the CCP, and we know where Mao stood. The former Soviet government confiscated churches and banned all religion – the government was to be the highest power.
Marx called religion the “opium of the masses,” and governments have had a long and treacherous road with religion as a rivaling authority. We know Klaus Schwab has a bust of Lenin in his office, and simply put, the new world order cannot occur with religion in the way. It is too divisive and does not abide by the agenda to create the few haves and a mass of have-nots. The governments would love to tax religious institutions and prevent people from paying any form of a tithe. The entire woke agenda goes against absolutely every prominent religion, but it is easiest for government to paint the majority, the Christians, as intolerant.
Church and state were designated to be separate entities. Yet the government may always override the church or religion. In this case, the government is slowly making provisions that enable them to prevent religious ideas from threatening their authority. Every time the government is permitted to take a bit of power, they continue pulling that rope until they override any potential threats.

Eleven states may face capital gain taxes to comply with theBiden Administration’s 2025 budget, in which the government must hunt the people for taxes to pay for a fraction of their spending. The concept of capital gains was not within the original Constitution. The Founding Fathers established a completely new nation in an attempt to flee government tyranny, but yet again, Democracy has fallen into a Republic where the people have no say.
Capital gains were introduced in 1913, The 16th Amendment granted US Congress the power to levy income via taxation, which remained at around 7% until 1921. Congress quickly determined that they needed to extort citizens for more money and created two brackets. The 7% tax became a standard for income tax, but investors who held for over two years, an insignificant amount of time, were punished for saving and forced to pay 12.5% to Washington. Fast forward to 2025, and we are looking at the top marginal rate rising to up to 57.9%! The current capital extortion rate is around a quarter of one’s capital.
This idea of hunting down the rich is utter nonsense as it becomes an excuse to eliminate the middle class. The big money can take the risk, but the average investor cannot. This will deter small business investment and entrepreneurs who greatly contribute to innovation as they bring creativity and imagination to business.
Naturally, the 11 states are primarily blue. Californians really destroyed their state by voting for Gavin Newsom, and now they may face a top tax of 57.9% to cover the state’s excessive spending and growing deficit. New York and New Jersey, two states that should have stayed red, will face the second-highest capital gain taxation at a rate of 55.5%. These states already pay astronomical taxes on things such as property. Minnesota is looking at a tax of 55.45%, Oregon 54.5%, and Maine 51.75%, with the remaining states (Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Georgia, and Idaho) all facing capital gain extortion rates above 50%.
Why on Earth would anyone want to conduct business in these states? If Biden remains in power, it will be a wonder if major corporations continue to choose to do business in the United States at all. Businesses could go literally almost anywhere else and face lower rates of taxation. Additionally, the American consumer has been stretched so thin through dollar devaluation, inflation, and taxation that they are not spending the way they once did. Capitalism is under attack; success is a punishable offense.
America’s consumer economy will continue to decline while places like China see their middle class grow and the consumer economy rise. China is not creating worthless spending packages on climate change. Remember, they told us clear as day that the goal is to destroy America’s standing as the world’s leading superpower. Klaus Schwab has been aiming for 2030, but the computer has been honing in on 2032 before Schwab released plans for Agenda 2030. Unfortunately, this is all precisely on schedule as America enjoys its final time in the spotlight as the world’s financial capital.
