Charting A New Course

The level of insanity in the government of the United States of America has crossed yet another red line. The nearly simultaneous events of the Trump assassination attempt, the resignation of Joe Biden from the campaign, the Crowdstrike attack, the carelessness with which conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza are being managed and the open border signal a lack of leadership at all levels. The fact that there is no one apparently in charge or responsible for defending against any of these catastrophes, no one who takes the blame and subsequently is either fired or resign, indicates a level of acceptance of that failure and a queasy feeling that they are by design.

In the United States, and especially this page, there is an understanding that there has been a communist coup, probably initiated in 1963, but invigorated over the supposed Pandemic and the increasingly provable stolen election in 2020. Other nations, however, see this as simple anarchy, producing a military and governmental weakness that can be exploited to their benefit. The dangers cannot be exaggerated. This is existential.

For the first time in American history, the nation is literally leaderless, no obvious chain of command exists. Joe Biden, having dropped out of the campaign for president with a one page memo, with no Biden-Harris letterhead and a suspiciously divergent signature could have been drafted and distributed by anyone who had access to his Twitter account. Joe has not been seen, he gave no national address and the identity of whoever has been playing the part of Joe Biden for the past several years has always been suspect to me. The shape of the head keeps changing, the eyebrows are different, the eyes are different, but I’ve never made such a big deal of that, because what difference would it make if everyone around Washington and the White House agrees to the fraud? Is he still the president, if he ever was? Did he drop out of the campaign or the official office? Does he know the difference? Were there a military emergency right at this moment, who would act? The military itself (to some limited actions that is true, but not a major engagement)? If so, by what authority? The larger question to me is: does anyone in the upper echelons of government care who would act? Would it be some committee? Where is the Speaker of the House? Where are all of those Republican representatives we elected? I hear not a word concerning the most consequential lack of leadership in the history of the United States.

By not thoroughly investigating all of these questions, it ultimately leads to this situation. I blame the Republican party for that, solely and wholly. If not them, who? If we get a Democrat politician in high office, does that mean they can do anything they want, while any Republican will be reduced in power to little more than a figurehead, betraying at least 50% of the population? Is that democracy?

Of course the Democrats, the least interested in democracy of any sort, clamor and wail about the loss of democracy, to use an Alinsky tactic to its fullest effect, but they only mean a loss of their bureaucratic power. Look at how viciously they went after project 2025, nothing more than a well-thought-out description of how to use the bureaucratic power to benefit the people themselves rather than politicians, lobbyists and government workers. They have no relationship to the democratic process. Every rule or law they encounter can be subverted and overcome simply by wailing their objections to it. Meanwhile, elected Republicans stand by in fear of being called names for defending the perspectives of their constituents.

On one hand, it’s interesting to see the Democrat party eating itself, the extent to which we have not yet seen until the Palestinians and their sympathizers exert their political will, probably violently. But the Democrats will have to choose and they can’t. Taking any side will alienate a good portion of the others and since violence is their only solution to conflict, the 2024 DNC might put the 1968 DNC to shame.

On the other hand, it is the nation the Democrats put in peril by their continued stubbornness to obey a single rule or law. Their failures are ultimately the nation’s failures and concern for one’s safety and the safety of the whole nation grows with each catastrophe. This is only heightened by the knowledge that Republicans are hopeless, abused spouses of their purported opponents. So where does one go for relief? The states, but they are gripped with the same fears and cowardice of the overall Republican party, or they would be recognizing that the Constitution has been overthrown and they must embrace their own political futures.

The truth of the matter is that the United States is right now presented with existential issues that cannot or will not be resolved within the current system. Much like the founders were forced to acknowledge that the Articles of Confederation were not working and entered into an extra-legal process of writing the Constitution without the authority to do so, but a cadre of influential people agreeing to the necessity of it, and drafted the now defunct and widely violated Constitution. It is that time again, patriots, and while I recognize that what needs to be done will not be strictly “legal” I fear not, because trying to play on a sloped field is how we have arrived at this predicament.

From the firm belief that the strong must protect the weak, I see the coming conflict as necessary and patriotic, because the old, corrupt system believes that the strong must subjugate and exploit the weak. That is a retrograde position dating back to the earliest of times, something for which the Constitution was initially praised for obliterating. By virtue of the Bill of Rights, it extended certain rights to the people themselves by which they might be able to stand on a level footing with all of the machinations of government power. It’s also the feature that the overall government has been dedicated to overcoming to seize that last vestige of power from the people. The pandemic and the government response to it was the future if we will not stand together and choose a different path.

Logically, with a lack of sentimentality for the good ol’ USA, there are states within the union that are too large to be governed by the small pack of jackals in Washington. The border issue dramatically illuminates the fact. Texas might want and need to defend the border, but that brings it illogically and unconstitutionally in conflict with the small pack of jackals and corrupt officials in the faraway land of Washington. They do not feel the impact of the border towns as Texans do. They do not suffer the injustices of criminality that those towns do. By not allowing Texas to defend itself, it has spread the injustices to every town, every city in America, but the small pack of jackals still don’t care, it’s with their political donors (also removed from the pain and poverty they cause) that their allegiances lie.

The answer to the problems are more representatives responsive to a smaller group of voters, none of which have the wealth to demand allegiance, or it is a complete realignment of political power to more readily respond directly to their constituents. This approach might be criticized heartily and patriotically, but it does not change the calculation that to continue on with a corrupt and dysfunctional system is not patriotism, but sentimentality.
