The Biden/Harris regime has named Avril Haines as Director of National Intelligence (DNI). The DNI coordinates and supervises all aspects of national security, foreign and domestic. And she is the most dangerous, deadly, and anti-America person to ever hold that office…she is the ultimate globalist and authoritarian.

So who is Avril Haines?

Her serious education/indoctrination began at the age of 14. She attended that ultra-elite/leftist Ivy League-bound high school, Hunter College High School. Then she went on to the University of Chicago, home of such notables as:

• old school elites banking family Rockefellers
• big-tech moguls from Oracle and Microsoft (Ellison & Nadella)
• radical socialist John Dewey who mandated government schools in America
• Communist Party member Bernie Sanders
• James Comey, former FBI director who led the coup against Trump coordinating closely with the Clintons and the CIA
• radical socialist journalist Ana Marie Cox
• radical political activist Ed Asner
• globalist, neo-conservative politician Liz Chaney
• Aldrich Ames, former CIA operative and Soviet Union spy
• Saul Alinsky, radical American communist and socialist, wrote a book dedicated to Satan
• Arne Duncan, former Secretary of Education and radical extremist Progressive
• David Brooks radical leftist/globalist journalist
• And the list goes on and on and on…a breeding ground of radical leftists, Progressives, and globalists.

To continue her post-college globalist indoctrination and to gain authoritarian regime experience:

• she worked at the Hague Conference on Private International Law
• worked under Biden on leftist CFR
• Served as Deputy National Security Advisor in the radical Marxist Obama administration
• Then took the post of Deputy Director of the Central Intelligence Agency under John Brennan (well-known authoritarian extremist and documented to have committed dozens of acts of extra-judicial executions of America citizens).
• Of particular note, in 2015 she prevented the prosecution of CIA operatives who illegally spied on members of Congress. Doing so while overruling the CIA Inspector General himself who had recommended prosecution of the CIA spies. The speculation is she was the one who ordered the illegal (i.e. unconstitutional) spying and the trials would have revealed the leadership of deep state in the federal government and the depths to which they were willing to go.

Why is her working closely with John Brennan as his immediate subordinate at the CIA important? At least one CIA insider revealed that John Brennan actually made plans to assassinate President Trump. And it goes further…John Brennan openly acknowledged that he had voted for US Communist Party members in Presidential elections during the Cold War . There are also numerous credible reports that John Brennan was actually a Communist Party member. But there are no longer any US Communist Party records to prove it. So, the new DNI was mentored by a known Communist supporter and originator of a CIA plot to assassinate a US President…and never brought this to light…let alone worked for him. Makes you wonder why?

And most notably, she led the CIA operations from 2014 – 2016 in the extra-judicial “targeted killings” by drones. Even the ACLU criticized the drone murders! Haines herself reduced the minimum criteria to virtually ZERO for an individual to be “nominated” for lethal action. The term “nominated” is a deceptive euphemism for targeting people for assassination, and her drone guidelines allowed for the assassination of US citizens without any due process in our American judicial system. Yes, outright murders of American citizens!!

Why is she so willing to use drones to murder people with virtually no evidence that they are a threat…just on a CIA operative’s word?

Why is she so willing to murder Americans?

Why is she so willing to by-pass the America judicial process?

Well, it is plainly obvious…at least to me.

In my opinion she is one of the most dangerous people to have ever worked in the US government. She would be as home in Gestapo headquarters or leading a torture session of an American citizen as drinking a latte in a Starbucks. She is a cold-hearted, stone cold killer…and radical extremist.

Based on her education, her work background, and actual documented actions…she is going to kill Americans, work actively to bring us under the thumb of totalitarianism, and bring us under an irreversible globalist elites’ control.

Watch for killings, murders, assassinations, disappearances, and renditions to drastically increase under her tenure as DNI.

Biden couldn’t have picked a more perfectly educated,well-trained…and evil person as DNI to further their authoritarian regime’s agenda.

Avril Haines…everything anti-American and anti-Constitutional as a person can get.

For your information:

• Avril Haines as Director of National Intelligence
• Tony Blinken – Biden/Harris Secretary of State 
• Jake Sullivan – National Security Adviser
• Ron Klain – White House Chief of Staff
• John Kerry – Climate Envoy

Personal message from me this evening…from my heart.

Man oh man…what a week it’s been! Heck, what a two months it’s been!!

I took a lot of time researching what was happening this past week, who was involved, why, and what comes next. As Michael mentioned in a “reply” he was not surprised at what happened…but he was surprised at the speed at which the reaction was and the speed of the reaction’s progress. Amen! Michael was spot on.

I sincerely hope you have read my SitRep – 1/7/2021, Feedback & Comments – 1/7/2021, FAQ – 1/8/2021, FAQ – 1/9/2021 and my two Immediate Action Warnings from earlier today. Those are pretty dang essential to understanding what happened, the reactions taking place, and some suggestions on what is coming and what to action(s) to take. Tonight I just want to talk, share some thoughts, ideas, issues, and concerns in a less formal way.

So here are a few things we know:

1. On 1/6 a peaceful rally turned into a protest. The protest turned into a violent and destructive demonstration. The demonstration turned into a deadly and unprovoked attack on the US Capital.
2. The attack was carried out almost exclusively by Trump supporters proven by clear and overwhelming evidence (i.e. Trump saying they were, their own admission, facial recognition, etc.).
3. The attackers did include some people from non-Trump organizations. However, they were relatively few in number and took no leadership role.
4. There appears to be multiple issues with the initial and on-going law enforcement response before and during the rally/protest/demonstration/attack phases. The exact nature of the “issues” remain to be fully exposed.
5. Many of those who participated were part of the peaceful rally and got caught up in the moment and found themselves participating in the attack. No, I am not excusing their part in the attack, I am simply explaining some of the facts of the situation.
6. Some of the participants of the most troublesome part of the attack were folks who came looking for some serious trouble: 1) ready to take hostages, 2) ready to commit acts of extreme violence, 3) and at least one person came prepared to use bombs. And so far, all of those folks have been clearly identified as actual Trump supporters with a well-documented history of supporting Trump.
7. One attacker and one federal law enforcement officer died in the attack. Multiple others died as indirect casualties of the attack. Many dozens were injured.
8. Some of the attackers displayed white supremacy insignias.
9. Some of the attackers displayed extreme anti-government symbols.
10. Some of the attackers were veterans.
11. The attack failed to accomplish anything positive.
12. The attack was a major victory for all things liberal, Progressive, Communist, Marxist, and Socialist…and forwarded the cause of authoritarianism.
13. The attack was a major defeat for, and set-back for, everything right-wing, Republican, Conservative, Patriotic, freedoms, liberties, and rights.
14. The mainstream media reacted as predicted…immediately labeled the event everything from violent to insurrection, and the participants were labeled everything from right-wing to terrorists to insurgents. And those labels weren’t far off when viewed in the cold light of reality.
15. The conservative media reacted as predicted…immediately labeled the rally as mostly peaceful, the demonstrators as non-Trump supporters, and the violent participants as undercover AntiFa and BLM operatives…all of which without any credible evidence to support it.
16. The radical left immediately rallied and called for swift and significant crushing of the insurrection.
17. The radical right Trump worshipers immediately started to deflect any responsibility and actually initiated innumerable conspiracy theories about who really carried out the attack. They shifted into protecting their idol…at all costs. And provided no credible evidence to support their wild conspiracy claims.

So there you have my read on what happened…hope it makes sense and I wrote it out as it was in my head. So what do you think?

What I think is this…what the Trump supporters did on 1/6 in attacking the Capital Building was despicable, disgusting, destructive, worthless, stupid, and evil. Absolutely nothing they did was positive or had any constructive value at all! To the contrary…the attackers handed the dark side a tremendous victory of incredible value. The attackers set back any freedom movement, any patriot movement, and any Conservative movement by years…if not decades. Pure and simple they were either utterly stupid or insidiously evil in their actions.

So there you have it…plain and simple…for all to see…my opinion based on facts and principles…not based on politics or unfounded conspiracy theories.

I already explained why I think they did it in FAQ – 1/8/2021 (Why?) <click here>

So now what?

Well you are already seeing part of it…the authoritarians are coming down on the attackers big time, arrests are being made, charges being filed, perpetrators being identified with the help of everything tech, censorship is running rampant, and much more to come.

But, here is the number one problem that resulted from 1/6…division. The dark side can now do all kinds of PsyOps to split the right away from mainstream America, and split the right itself into small groups…divide and conquer. And you can’t blame them! It is as if in a matter of a couple hours the right-wing committed suicide.

No wait, more like they were suicide bombers…and there was significant collateral damage besides their own suicide. The Republicans will now have to demonize Trump supporters (and they are), RINOs can demonize everything right-wing, everybody can now demonize Conservatives, all right leaning politicians will have to vilify the Trump attackers and their supporters, and libertarians can rightfully say, “I told you so!”

The right coalition is now fractured into many camps…mostly small camps. And as rational Trump supporters learn of, accept, and think through the evidence of 1/6 they will abandon the idolizing of Trump and his “style” and “methodology”. But the diehard Trump worshipers will dig in and not just demonize everyone else…but they will actually strike out against all things non-Trump, create conspiracies, and lose all credibility with normal and rational people.

Bottom line with this…the Trump supporters, the Capital attackers, have successfully handed the federal government to the Democrats and authoritarians for a long time to come…for sure several election cycles, maybe decades. And I think the right-wing movement as it stands now is permanently destroyed and will have to be rebuilt. And I don’t have a clear picture of that will look like…but I feel it will not be good in many aspects.

If one thing positive came out of it…1/6 and the aftermath will clearly reveal those that are…well, I wanted to write “crazy” but that isn’t appropriate. I could say “those that you don’t want to be associated with” but that isn’t true in every case either. So I am struggling to identify the “group” I want to label. So maybe I should say those that participated in 1/6, those that support(ed) it, those that create conspiracy lunacy, etc…simply revealed themselves.

So now they have two main choices; 1) understand and accept the reality of what happened and the consequences of it…and then change their ways, 2) dig in and become even more radical and more severely misguided.

For you…well, you have to decide to what degree you align yourselves with group #2. I strongly suggest you forgive group #1 and help them with taking a more Constitutional, more moral, more realistic approach to the situation America is in right now. For group #2…well, I will distance myself from associating with them, I will condemn their actions and their approach, and I will expose them for who they are…a radical destructive force in the United States that our Founding Fathers would not approve of at all.

It was proposed to me that 1/6 was a first “action” of a change of government as approved of in the Declaration of Independence. My view on that is…ABSOLUTELY NOT! There is NO relating the actions of 1/6 with the Declaration of Independence process for change of government. Seriously, think about this for a minute…does anything that happened on 1/6/2021 even remotely resemble the actions of April 19, 1775? No, I didn’t think so.

But honestly, what now?

Well, there are two clear answers to that…

1) You must distance yourself from any support of those involved in the attack of 1/6. Those actions were shameful as shameful can be…and hurtful to the true freedom movement by an incalculable factor. Do not associate yourself with that event for the simple reason it was wrong and against correct principles.

2) You must work even harder to clarify the principles in which you believe, stand firm in those principles no matter what, and prepare for everything that is coming. And what is coming will be surprising in a very negative way.

How bad will it get? I have written at length what will happen if the Democrats get control of the Whitehouse and Congress. Well, that day has come…the Republicans and Trump handed them that victory on a silver platter. And then they sprinkled that sliver platter victory with copious amounts of gold flakes on 1/6. The Democrats now have virtually a free-hand in whatever they wish to do…to destroy our Republic.

The radical left doesn’t just have the mainstream media on their side, they have a much diminished conservative media credibility to contend with. The radical left doesn’t just have the mainstream media on their side, they now have all social media platforms of any note on their side…and a very loud voice calling for the crushing of “false information”.

Yes, that crushing is two-part; 1) any opposing view, 2) all conspiracy theories. And yes, the conservative right-wing whack job websites are alive and teeming with all sorts of crazy conspiracy theories concerning 1/6. And of course the big tech companies now have perfect cover, perfect justification, for teaming up with authoritarian big-government types to do their part to crush the right wherever they are found.

Do I want you to be quiet and take it? Seriously, anyone who has been reading my stuff or any length of time knows that to be anything but true. But, I am asking you to be smart and be on the right side of history. Prepare every needful thing, obviously. And be active in forwarding the cause of freedom, working to secure liberties, and relentless in advocating for rights given to us by God. But do it smart!

Do not get involved in militias or any group that even begins to support the people involved with 1/6 or anyone who supports those kinds of actions. Do not get involved in “politics” or idolize politicians…especially to the point of blind idolizing that we’ve seen with many Trump worshipers.

Find people that support your principles and who would be willing to run for office, at any level, and then work to get them elected…and keep them on the right path if they get elected.

Teach your family, especially your kids what is right and what is wrong…and especially teach them those thing that are accurate in American history and civil affairs.

Expect the unexpected! What is coming will be vicious, hateful, and evil as we’ve never seen it before. Expect it!!

One example is the Lincoln Project is building an extensive database of Trump supporters and others they consider “dangerous” and “complicit” and intend to work with the federal law enforcement and politicians to create a war crimes environment to go after them. But, that is only the tip of the iceberg and a minor example of what these radical authoritarians are capable of…and planning.

I am convinced now, more than ever, that mental and spiritual preparation dwarfs any physical preparations we can make. You must be strong enough to resist ALL evil…whether it comes from the radical left, the racial right, Washington, and even from those in your own religions who have lost their way.

Yes, be self-reliant in every possible physical way…AND be spiritually self-reliant as well. And that self-reliance comes from adopting correct principles that you live by, stand by…no matter what.

I am honestly pleading with you…I beg you to get ready, to be prepared, to be sane and grounded in reality, avoid idols, avoid worshiping man, avoid politics as usual, grasp the iron rod of good…and don’t let go!

Well, this is not going to be a SitRep, it’s not going to be technical to any degree, and it is probably going to state the obvious for many of you. All that being said I thought it was time to write to you from my heart, just me, nobody special, not a “guru” of any kind, just me…a man watching the little dots appear and someone who is trying to connect them in some meaningful way…before it is too late.

And while I am at it…I apologize again for not really writing any decent “prepper” articles, equipment reviews, gear guides, Tips & Traps, etc. With everything that is going on I am concentrating on 3 things right now; 1) finish the basics of my home and the 40a that goes with it, securing it for what is coming, 2) watching and analyzing the current events that we are witnesses to, 3) helping my neighbors as much as realistically possible. That doesn’t leave me much spare time to write other than the most essential articles. I hope you understand.

So this article is more like just a written conversation from my fingers to your ears and hearts and spirit…I hope it means something to you and has some value for you.

And of course remember one thing…it is all my opinion and nothing more.

Politics –

First off, as I stated before, Biden is the next person to be sworn in as

President. Nothing any of us does will change that. Trump will not be President come January 21st. And again…no attendance at any demonstration, rally, protest, etc. will change what is happening with the presidency. No letters, no petitions, no emails, no phone calls will have any effect on who is the next person to occupy the Whitehouse. It is 100% out of your control or influence. Well, unless there is some special lurker out there reading this…and seriously I doubt that. So I am saying to you…move on from the 2020 election. Let the legal folks, the courts, and the national level politicians handle this from here on out…as for you…leave it alone…it is history…it is the past…move on.

As for the Senate…the Republicans still don’t have a majority. The good news is the facts are showing that they may win one, probably both Georgia seats that are still undecided. Republicans David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler are facing pretty stiff challenges from democrat opponents. However, it looks now as if the Republicans will keep both seats. And have 52 Senate seats ensuring a Republican majority. And more importantly…keep Biden in check to some degree. The primary “win” for Republicans keeping the Senate will be their ability to block expanding the Supreme Court and having the Democrats pack it with radical leftists. There is also a secondary part of that win that is important…the ability for Republicans to block legislation that is passed in the ultra-Progressive (i.e. radical leftists) House. Whew!!!

But don’t get too comfortable…just as Trump’s Executive Orders undid a lot of damage done to the Republic by Obama and Bush…Biden can reverse all of that with Executive Orders…and then go WAY socialist/authoritarian.

So while the Senate outcome will help soften the coming blow…a Biden/Harris presidency will still be a hefty blow to deal with over the coming 4 years. Well, unless the fraud that was rampant in the Presidential election rears its ugly head and the Democrats win both Georgia Senate seats. Then…well, think Titanic to get the picture of what would be coming.

COVID-19 –

Do not let COVID run your life. Remember some facts (as reported by the government):

• Less than 4% of the US has contracted COVID-19
• About 2% of those who reportedly contracted COVID-19 have died
• That means less than .0008% of the US population has reportedly died from COVID-19 (yes, that is 8 ten thousandths of 1%)

And let us not forget the studies of those who actually died from COVID…2% of all REPORTED COVID-19 deaths are actually from COVID…the other 98% had co-mortality conditions that are phenomenally high in mortality by themselves. So while the reported deaths from COVID-19 is about 265,000 as of today, only about 5300 died from COVID itself. And don’t forget that health officials have been caught intentionally misreporting non-COVID deaths as COVID deaths…as in Florida reporting a death due to COVID-19 when in actuality the individual died in a motorcycle accident.

My point…do not let COVID run or ruin your life. No, don’t be stupid about it…but don’t be fearful either.

FOOD –

We are hearing reports of a major food crisis developing…and lasting for 50 years. To that I throw the BS flag! First off the UN released that announcement that was quickly picked up by the media and repeated ad nauseam. The UN has repeatedly released those announcements for decades and then immediately asks member countries for money.

And there will always be a food shortage somewhere in the world in any given year. And that trend will not change any time soon. This year when they made the announcement they stated the need for “Better social protections for poor people…” Ah, sorry…what does that have to do with feeding people? If someone is hungry you feed them and then teach them the skills to feed themselves…and others.

And I have heavily researched the food shortages last spring. There was NO food shortage!!  There was plenty of food (i.e. normal food supply)…it was simply being bought up by people wanting to have more food in their pantry than normal and people eating more at home due to restaurants being closed. Then the spot shortages appeared on grocery store shelves.

The food supply chain was not broken either. It worked as designed…it brought food and related items to stores as normal. It was that “normal” was not tied to the new abnormal buying of those items. Hence it took longer to get those items to the stores in sufficient quantities. And food producers were producing food as normal…and again, the “normal” was not sufficient to meet the new abnormal demand. But there were NO food shortages and the food supply chain was NOT broken. They were faced with a “new normal” and are reacting accordingly.

Now, those that ran out of food in their homes did so because of poor

planning and lack of understanding the most basic of “prepping” principles. They, as individuals, chose to run out of food…the food system did not choose to deny them food, nor did the government.

I would sincerely hope that you and your family are now prepared to deal with any different “normal” that may hit the food production, supply, and distribution chains.

That being said…I would not delay in buying heirloom garden seeds for your next year’s garden. Consider yourself warned.

World of Opposites –

One thing I have learned over the years is the world is comprised of

opposites. Everything that is, or does, or takes place has an exact opposite.

The man who robs and kills a convenience store clerk is opposed by the woman who gives of her time and resources to a local food bank. The teenager who does drugs and steals from his parents to buy those drugs is opposed by the teenager leading a project to restore a local park. A serial abusive clergy member is opposed by a selfless Bishop/Minister/Preacher who dedicates his time and energy to helping his congregation. Everything has its opposite.

In our lives we see theft vs generous donation, selfishness vs selflessness, foul vs beauty, ignorance vs intelligence, calming vs chaotic, right vs wrong, good vs evil.

In politics we see authoritarian vs libertarian, politicians vs citizens, campaign promises vs post-election actions, politics vs principles, freedoms vs taxes, Constitution vs agenda, rights vs regulations, right vs wrong, good vs evil.

Everything in our world has its opposite…it is up to us as individuals which of those choices we embrace. And those cumulative choices become our principles, our morals, our ethics, our very character itself.

Someone once told me that criminals have no morals, principles, or ethics.  I disagree. Their personalities are comprised of morals, principles, and ethics…just the bad side of most of those things.

In our world today we see opposites more than ever, they are all around us, and they are clear and recognizable. Well, that is if we prevent our bias(es) from interfering and clouding our perceptions.

Our job, those of you who frequent my website, is to please do three things:

1) Truly and honestly look at events in the world today to determine

what is happening in regards to opposites.

2) Look closely at the people who we consider “power players” and determine which of the two sides they are on.

3) Reevaluate and assess where our own choices are in regards to “opposites”.

Then treat each event, including anticipated events, and each person appropriately. What does “appropriately” mean? Well, that is up to you to decide. Let me share a few examples that I thought of…

Example: Local city council proposes yet another bond, tax, or “fee”…you could organize an opposition movement to defeat those measures.

Example: A radical leftist (i.e. Democrat) is running for a County Commissioner seat. Find a trustworthy Libertarian to run against them; back that candidate with your time, effort, and resources.

Example: Your church wants to embrace and sanction abortion. You could voice your opinion and work with like-minded people and through your governing church leadership body to stop the move.

Example: Local families are not getting enough to eat. You could organize a food drive and distribute that food to those in need. Or better yet, work to organize fellow congregation members, friends or neighbors to join in, thus multiplying those whose needs can be met.

Example: There are two radical leftists running against Republicans in Georgia for control of the Senate…if you live in Georgia you could actively campaign for the Republicans. If you don’t live there you could make a monetary donation to one or both of those Republican candidates.

Example: Right now we are living in a world of “isolation”, or at least far more so than we have historically seen. So, go opposite…call your neighbors, friends, or someone who you think might be in need of company and talk to them on the phone, Facetime with them, Zoom them, or perform an act of service for them. Chip away at people’s feeling of isolation.

Time “To Do!” –

I recently wrote about “control & influence” (SitRep 11/20/2020)  I think it would be a good idea to read that material as a refresher…then couple it with “What to do, What not to do”.

I thought I wrote in an article somewhere on the site about Smithy (my first mother-in-law) and what she taught me some 40 years ago. As a refresher, since I can’t find that article, Smithy taught me a very valuable lesson…albeit a very simple one. From every situation and from every person you can always learn one of two things (sometimes both)…what to do or/and what not to do.

Right now, in our time, this week, today, is the time “To Do!”  

However, that call to action comes with a qualification…the “do” part must be the right thing to do. And of course the “do” is also dependent on timing. Do those things that are right, but also do them at the right time.

Yes, this is a call to action…and I mean a CALL TO ACTION! 

For quite some time now I have been giving you a list of things to consider doing. How’s that going for you? What is working and what needs more effort?

I also have been cautioning you against doing certain things…alerting against those activities and actions that might not be in your best interest or those things that could be potentially dangerous. I sincerely hope you followed those cautionary promptings.

So what is different now?  I am asking you to step it up, to get more active, to do more, to be more…the world needs you! Dang it!…your family needs you, your neighbors need you, your church needs you, your community needs you!!!

You are needed…and needed right now!

And yes, you will be needed for the foreseeable future. Exactly how long I don’t know, and honestly, it doesn’t matter. You are needed…period!

You might be asking why my change in tone and my “call to action”…and it would be a valid question. My answer…well, I am hesitant to it share it all with you…but I will, at least to some degree.

I have been doing this for a long time, a very long time. I’ve been a prepper for over 40 years. I homesteaded, I farmsteaded, I have been in emergency incident management (now retired) as a professional. I’ve have closely monitored the political front and done research on politicians, political parties, movements, power players, and such for more than 10 years. I’ve been of the inside of the federal government, I sat in federal government meetings that would appall you to your very core.

What am I getting at? Well, I am seeing a very dark, deeply dark, time

coming for our country. We are entering a whole new phase of a “dark ages” as a country. We will slip further into the authoritarian government abyss. We are going to have the federal government spiral completely out of control. The conflict in government will fall as a tidal wave onto the populous. I believe the chaos that will come among citizens will exceed that of the 60’s race riots…or anything else we’ve seen short of war.

As I spoke of opposites earlier, that holds true now and in this situation. As the government and politics tanks into conflict and chaos, as the Constitution continues to disappear, as the divisiveness deepens, as the darkness gathers…there is the “opposite”…and it is you…and others like you. You cannot fail…

You must not fail!

You, and those who join us, will be a light, will be a joy, will bring hope, will bring goodness into this civil/political bleak and worsening world. Together we can make a huge difference in the lives of individuals, families, and communities.

Why is “hope” so important?

The primary cause of suicide (and other forms of self-harm) is a feeling/sense of hopelessness.

What we as individuals must do is be the opposite of hopelessness by being bearers of hope like never before. We must be selfless not selfish. We must be willing to sacrifice for others. We must embrace the entire concept of “service” as we’ve never seen before. We must do without while we provide for those with even less.

We must do our part, a significant part, to prevent hopelessness in our families, our congregations, our communities, and our country. Because if we don’t, just as the person who commits suicide due to hopelessness…so it will happen to our families, our congregations, our communities, and our country.

We are now at a point in history the likes the United States has never seen. We have two very clear paths in front of us…we can choose authoritarianism or we choose freedom, we can choose political parties or we can choose principles, we can choose right or we can choose wrong, we can choose good or we can choose evil. In our world today it is entirely up to us what we choose…and then live through the consequences of those choices…as will our children and grandchildren because of those choices.

We must not allow evil to triumph. We must not allow those who do ill to win. We must not stand by while darkness encroaches. We must be a light, we must be hope, we must do our part…and…

the time to do our part is now!

There are some comments and my replies on yesterday’s article. Please read, digest, and continue replying. We need to make this a real serious community discussion.

<click here to read Resist!>

OK, that was “click bait” for sure…again. (More on “Resist! a little later.)

Unofficial vote results shows a Biden/Harris win. Biden won the popular

vote by over 4million votes. He also apparently won 290 Electoral College votes, maybe more…albeit unofficially.

Remember I wrote that Biden would win the popular vote? That should have been a no-brainer for anyone…Trump was wildely unpopular with many, many people in this country for a wide variety of reasons.

And while 290 EC votes is not exactly a landslide it is pretty clear that Biden flipped a couple battle ground states back into being Democrat country.

And of course the Democrat Party held onto the House of Representatives.

But, here may be the worst news of all…the Senate may still end up in Democrat Party hands. Currently the Republicans and Democrats are deadlocked at 48 seats each. A couple of races have yet to be called. Should the Republicans win a majority then there is a firewall against the radical leftist policies that Biden/Harris will attempt to push through. Should the Democrats win a majority, then prepare yourself for an onslaught of radical socialist/authoritarian policies turning into laws. And then it gets worse…Democrats will be able to appoint large numbers of federal-level judges. And yes, they will obviously make a run at enlarging the Supreme court…then packing those seats with radical left-wingers. They desire a clear majority of radical leftist Supreme Court Justices.

And don’t forget…should there be a vote tie of Senators, Republican/Democrat, then vote ties are broken by the President of the Senate…the Vice-President. And that of course would be Kamala Harris…the most radical and authoritarian Vice-President that we have had since the FDR days….maybe longer.

So we are on the cusp of a HUGE speed change in the direction of our country. No, not a HUGE change of direction…simply a HUGE difference (i.e. increase) in the speed of the direction our government in making.

Speed vs Direction????

Yes, the direction the country has been taking for 120 years is plain and very easy to see. The US government is making our country a more authoritarian state, with socialist underpinnings, and with a steady loss of rights, liberties, and freedoms; and doing so by seizing more and more power and money from US citizens. It has been a steady and consistent direction for those 120 years with only the speed of seizing changing.

Under Biden/Harris the speed will increase…and become ever so painful to those that value rights, freedoms, and liberties. And it will be ever so welcomed by those that love socialism and/or authoritarianism.

So what about the “Resist!” thing I bait clicked you on?

Ah, but maybe not how you think in terms of resisting. I am speaking of resisting:

• Fear of what is to come.
• Panic buying.
• Panic moving.
• Joining a militia.
• Participating in violence against the “system” in any shape or form.
• Panic selling of stock/ precious metals, etc.
• Panic withdrawing of IRA, 401k, or pension funds.

Resist all those passion driven actions, restrain your emotions. Allow time to show what is coming, how soon, how it will affect you, and what you should do about it. Be patient. Be kind. Be thoughtful. Be clear in thought. Be prayerful.

We lived through 8 years of Obama…the stock market did quite well under his Presidency actually.

We lived through 12 years of globalist, Progressive Bush Presidencies even though we lost a HUGE amount of rights, liberties, and freedoms.

We lived through 8 years of Clinton and all his crap.

We can it through this as well…maybe…ah, more on that later.

Now, what do I see coming?

Once I can think through these issues with a little more perspective I will write about what I specifically would like to suggest as a course of action. But, I have total confidence in you that you already know what you need to do…or will shortly be able to sort it all out and lay in a plan of action.

The single most painful and dangerous clarification that came out of this election…TWO Americas.

America is clearly broken down along a single clearly defined line…Urban/Rural…you could also call it Coast/Middle.

Let me briefly explain…Big cities and the surrounding suburbs are clearly and overwhelmingly left-wing. While most areas outside of the cities, and especially the middle of the country, is far more conservative. Look at any state county-by-county breakdown of Presidential vote results map and you will plainly see what I am talking about.

Unfortunately that points the US in a serious and dangerous direction…revolt. Maybe you even call it Civil War…or maybe even Revolution.  But the bottom line…the two sides that have formed in America are diametrically opposed to one another. And 70 years, maybe even 25 years ago we could have rallied together against a common foe. But…no more, those days are gone.  Even after 9/11 the country rallied together for maybe a few months…then back to polar opposites along political lines.

The two sides are on a collision course…war.

Don’t be surprised…America has noble beginnings and a divinely inspired foundation in the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and The Bill of Rights. But, like any/every other government…they seized more and more power and money from citizens. And America has done so like any other empire in the history of mankind. And like ALL other empires America too will fall. When? I have no idea…could be in 100 years, could be next year…but it will fall…they all have. America will be no different.

Fortunately, there are enough people who know and love the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and The Bill of Rights…and will save them and their principles even if it only by a thread. Unfortunately…our country, as such, will not be saved and our government cannot, will not, be restored to its original form and design. But, there will be pockets of people where those ideals will be preserved and lived. Are you prepared to be part of, or a leader of, one of those pockets?

More to come…<click here to read the follow-up>

Yup, that’s borrowed from Paul Harvey…I didn’t think he’d mind, especially when you hear the story.

So in my Crotchety Old Man post on 9/8/20 <click here to read> I mentioned my UTV being broken down and the part to fix it is no longer manufactured and I couldn’t find it anywhere. Well, let me finish that story for you…the rest of the story.

So you got the first part…broken UTV, part is no longer manufactured, talked to multiple dealers with no luck, they even searched a special web-thing that shows what dealers, if any, still have it on the shelf (called “old new stock”) and no luck. Talked to every major parts supplier house on the Internet, no part anywhere to be found. Talked to a couple of ATV/UTV/motorcycle junk yards, the best I got was “I think I might have it around somewhere, if not my buddy might have one, call me back in a couple weeks.”

To say I was disappointed and discouraged would be a massive understatement. That UTV is a workhorse around here. I use it every day for my projects and my chores. Without it, my workload is much more strenuous and tiring…if not impossible. But, no part was to be found…nowhere, for any amount of money. Not giving up, I had decided that the week of September 14th I was going to drive to Phoenix (1/2 day away) and just start visiting every junk yard and UTV dealer in the entire area.

On September 15th I awoke very early in the morning (couldn’t sleep) and wrote “OK, let’s talk…” <click here to read> What motivated me to write that post? Well, I received exactly 6 comments via email to the “Crotchety Old Man” post but about 20 posted comments. One struck me like a baseball bat across the face…

“If you save but one soul how great shall be your joy…. Whether you save one temporally, spiritually or both you have brought a great wealth of information, knowledge, experience and wisdom to those of us who are learning to be prepared.”

It came from a special man who I have a special connection with that is…well, very special. He reminded me on what I was supposed to be doing. His reply, along with the ton of other posts and emails, made me feel humbled…and renewed. That generated “OK, let’s talk…” Well, now…that post generated more emails to me than any other post ever! All were wonderful, heartfelt, touching, warm, and just plain great. I had no idea that…well, I just had no idea.

Back to the UTV part…

Right after I wrote that post (OK, let’s talk…) I started feeling (a prompting really) that morning to call Polaris directly and plead my case and see if there was anything they could possibly do. But it wasn’t until late in the day (9/15) when I finally got around to it. And of course their headquarters is way back east…they were closed. But, I talked to a nice guy who took my information, he gave me a case number, and told me to call back the next day when customer service was open.

I called early the next morning and talked to a customer service representative that sounded bored out of her mind and completely disinterested in my situation. She put me on hold to talk with “Parts”…predictable results. She came back on, message was anticipated…the part is no longer manufactured, it’s not in any Polaris warehouse anywhere in the world, and she was sorry. She then said that the parts guy had checked the dealer inter-something net and would email me dealer contact information that they thought might have it.  Well, I already knew the dealer they were talking about, had talked to them, and they didn’t have it. But, I thanked her anyways and we hung up. I was thoroughly and completely discouraged. And to share the despair I went in to tell my wife the news. As I walked into the living room…”I heard” was all she said. I turned around and walked out of the room.

Disheartened I returned to the little spare/storage/computer room and sat down. Before I started up the part searching I wanted to see what was happening with the “OK, let’s talk…” post. I was surprised, a very decent number of views! And then I checked the personal responses that came in via email. Wow! There were already a bunch of emails from people I knew, all being very supportive and encouraging. And then there was the one specific email…from Betty, a very dear friend of mine that I’ve known for nearly 45 years. Here is the main message from her email…

“Wow, I can imagine how much you depend on the UTV. Maybe a ministering angel will drop one out of the sky for you. Remember what Art always said, ‘all you can do is all you can do, and all you can do is enough.’  One other thing, Heavenly Father wants us to ask and be specific and direct in our asking. Y’all are in our prayers!!
Hugs, Betty”

So, now the rest of the story…

I had been praying all along that Heavenly Father would bless us in regards to the UTV. Each time I worked the phones or searched the Internet I had a prayer either vocally or in my heart. But, I had not been specific in what I was asking help with. That would change. I had a prayer. I was specific.

I checked my regular email account and there was the email from Polaris “parts” with a list of 4 potential dealers that were showing they had the part in stock. I was elated and thrilled…prayers were working. But, before I picked up my cell phone I had a very specific prayer to please get us the part.

Called dealer #1: no, it was a software system error, they didn’t actually have the part at all, never did.

Called dealer #2: yup, they had the part up until YESTERDAY! They had shipped it out this morning to a dealer in Illinois to fix a customer’s machine.

Called dealer #3: well, not actually a dealer…a grain and seed store that also sold a few Polaris parts par-time. Busy signal.

Called dealer #4: They didn’t think they had it but would check and get back to me. As I was giving them my area code…they hung on me.

What?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!!?

I was getting ready to call Polaris back when Betty’s words came back to me…clearly. So, I had an even more specific prayer for help from Heavenly Father. And called back the non-dealer Dealer #3, “Will” answered.

I explained the situation to him and told him that Polaris was showing that he had the part in stock. He checked…nope, not showing it in stock on his computer system. I was crushed. But, he said he would go check the spot on the shelf where it should be just to be sure. I was put on hold.

Literally 10 minutes I was on hold. During that time I kept praying a specific prayer for help, a pleading to for God to be merciful and help us…to find that part for us.

Will came back on the line and said the spot was bare…no part where it would have been. Then he said he felt like he should look round on some of the other shelves which he had done…and he was holding the part in his hand. He had found it nowhere near where it should have been. He didn’t know why it wasn’t there…but he was holding it in his hand.

I was simply overwhelmed with emotion.

I told him I would take it! He said it would go out today. I paid for it and told him he was an answer to prayers. As I walked into the living room to tell my wife the good news I had tears in my eyes. I explained it to her…we were joyful to say the least.

To recap:

• I had become discouraged about the website.
• I wrote an article (Crotchety Old Man) to that effect and I was going dark.
• You guys responded with such warmth and good will that I couldn’t abandon the website. The turning point…the message from Glen that I shared earlier.
• I wrote “OK, let’s talk…” as a result of all of those incredible replies and encouragement.
• Then a reply to that posting from Betty to be specific in my prayers for help with the UTV.
• Also, many of the replies I had received contained messages that I/we were in their prayers.
• For the two previous weeks I had no luck finding the part for the UTV…none!
• Then I get the prompting to call Polaris direct. They give me the only 4 options left.
• One dealer who had the part had sold it the day before I called. (FYI…they had the part on the shelf for over 10 years).
• Two other dealers were of no help, one of them had hung up on me.
• The other dealer (a non-dealer) gave me a busy signal the first attempt. Then their system showed they no longer had one in stock.
• The guy was kind enough to check just to be sure…and no part in the bin where it was supposed to be.
• Then he felt like checking the other shelves to see if he could find it.
• He eventually found it nowhere near where it should have been.

It arrived Tuesday, I installed it yesterday. I drove it from the workshop to the house, pulling up and whistling to my wife if she wanted to go for a ride. All is well, all is well.

So now you know the rest of the story…the whole story.

If you are a religious person…this reinforces that God lives, He hears us, and He answers prayers. That is my testimony.

If you are not a religious person…well, maybe you should reconsider now that you know the rest of the story.

Yesterday I posted an article warning about the potential for violence, if not outright armed rebellion, if Trump and the Republicans tries to replace RGB. <click here to read the article>

I really looked all over the Internet this morning for several hours and found a large list of groups calling to “burn down” the system (including Congress) if the current administration tries to replace RGB.

And, not so strangely, there is a long and growing list of celebrities calling for the same thing.

For this to gain so much traction so quickly is worrisome to say the least. The next “dot” to watch for are actual protests or demonstrations that would support the “burn it down” advocacy and how quickly they show up.

Even Pelosi is talking about another impeachment attempt before the election or if Trump is defeated, during his lame-duck period.

Keep your eyes open, become more prepared, fill the holes in your pres, and stand-by.

And one more thing…get your principles defined, solidified, and be prepared to stand up for them.

Do not succumb to “politics”…stand for your “principles” ! !

While I am glad to see one less radical leftist member of the Supreme Court gone, I have to extend my condolences to Ginsburg’s family for their loss. But, this creates a potential powder keg situation for the country.

Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia died in February 2016. Obama nominated Merrick Garland to replace him. Republican leadership, they controlled the Senate, said that the vacancy should not be filled until after the Presidential election in 2016, and the new President was sworn in.

Now, McConnell is saying something entirely different. He has stated multiple times in the last 5 months that he would allow Trump to nominate and a vote would be taken on any Court vacancy.

Ouch, obviously a double standard as well as hypocrisy at its worse. But there is a potentially much larger problem…violence. Or, I should say much more violence.

What do you think will happen if Trump is allowed to nominate a Conservative to fill Ginsburg’s vacancy…and the Senate confirms? Actually, they will go ballistic when Trump is allowed to nominate, they will go more ballistic when the hearings take place…and they will go nuclear if a nominee is confirmed if this is done before the election. And double that if Trump is defeated and this stills goes through before January 20th when Trump would leave office.

We could potentially see an open armed rebellion in the streets.

Prepare now for that eventuality.

Note: I am working on another piece; it is in its final editing. Three weeks’ worth of work has gone into the research and editing. I hope to get it out on Monday. With this Ginsburg vacancy development I have to “war game” what, if any, differences it may make in my opinion.

Stand-by!  Prepare now!
