  • What Do We Do Now

    Given the events of the last two weeks “We The People” must take action to correct the operations of our government. The event that stands out the most egregiously since the Kent State Massacre is the murder of an Citizen of our country by the direct and forceful actions of an ICE agent in Minneapolis. I have reviewed the video footage and the agent was NOT in danger in any way by Renee Nicole Good. The agent did not follow any kind of recognized police procedure, he was doing what The present have been allowing ICE agents to do since last January.

    So we now have a choice to make, the present government has been looking for an action like this where they could try to control the narrative to justify the use of the military to police all of us. Here is what I believe will happen:

    1, Ice will be ramping up their operations and become more violent towards the protestors watching their activities. This will result in injury on both sides. THIS IS HAPPENING NOW!

    2. The President will use the above to justify declaring there is a rebellion and put regular military units to guard the ICE agents. THE PRESIDENT IS CONSIDERING INVOKING THE INSURRECTION ACT!

    3. When either the military chooses to not obey the order of the President or they do and mass casualty events start happening where ever troops are deployed, It won’t matter to President Trump.

    4. President Trump will cancel the 2026 elections, close down the Congress to purge those who oppose him and Project 2025 goals. The courts and legal system will be only concerned with dealing with the enemies of the state, and the Constitution will be suspended until further notice.

    We can argue whether or the present administration is competent enough to pull this off but that is a moot point. This is their end plan.

    “We The People” can prevent this. I propose that we starting hitting the nail on the head.Instead reacting to an individual agency running amok. Let us direct our voices to force the Congress to Impeach the President, Vice President, the Cabinet, and every person that Donald J. Trump has appointed to a government post and hold them for trial. We can then set up an Interim Government to rebuild our Judiciary Branch, the investigative agencies such as the FBI, BCE, ICE, etcetera. The Supreme Court will also need a rework to eliminate the possibility of a Justice(s) being comprised by external influences. This reformed Judiciary branch will be tasked with dealing with the Trump Regime members and their influencers . The Congress will hold and supervise the 2026 elections and then again in 2028. The 2028 election will replace the interim government with a new President and Vice president. The interim Government shall have the power to rescind any Executive Order, Policy Change, or Pardon issued By the Trump presidency, Any Congressional Actions taken by the Congress to support any Rescinded Order or policy will be addressed by the Congress, Members of Congress will not be allowed to use the political party to enhance or decry the decisions of the Interim Government and the Congress will be in continual session until such a time as the Interim Government is excused from it’s duty by the Voters or January 31, 2029.

    There should also, I believe, be several Constitutional Amendments put forward to define just how far each branch of the government can push their power so we can, hopefully, prevent another situation like we have now. More on these at a later time.

    I firmly believe that the above can be accomplished peacefully if citizens in this country holds Congress to the task of preserving the “Government of the People , by the People, for the People.”

    We The People need to pressure the Congress to immediately stop and impeach the entire Trump Administration , and install the Interim Government. Flood the your Representatives and Senators phones, mail and email and demand the Impeachment of ALL the Trump regime. Flood your State Representatives, Assembly Members and Governors to hold the Federal Government Accountable for the Crimes and High Misdemeanors the Trump Regime has committed and if Congress does not comply then call for a Constitutional Convention under Article 5 of the Constitution. And if the mid-Terms Elections are Held VOTE Against any one of the above who do not want to stop the insanity that this regime . Start Petition Drives, stop supporting the billionaires, show up at peaceful demonstrations, and use any other legal means to show the above players how serious We The People can be.

    The alternative is to allow this regime to continue with it’s plan to permanently install a Dictator, control the people with their version of the SS and Gestapo and then we will all be subject to arrest and prosecution at their whim and fantasy and the blood will flow.

  • Fear

    Vic Meyers #resistance (catch it on YouTube) has been running a very good series on the Trump Administration and it’s backers on it’s use of FEAR to steer the the agenda. Anyone watching the military buildup Caribbean Sea since last September will remember the term “Narco-Terrorists” there’s a nice catchy phrase used to inspire fear, ICE has been using it for the last year to deport various groups of people whether or not they could be classed into that phrase. Now that Maduro is in custody for being a “Narco-Terrorist”. The Administration now says we will be running Venezuela to redeem a seizure by the Hugo Chavez government so that our oil companies can profit from their input into the tapping the oil reserves. This all part of our National Security Statement where the US says we control the western hemisphere.

    As Mr. Meyers would say “Let’s adjust our perspective” what does all the above mean when we remove FEAR from the equation? Firstly Maduro had to be removed, Next we seize the oil assets and hand them over to our oil companies. Then we run Venezuela, probably through a puppet dictator. All is well.

    Except we are walking into a situation where drug traffic is still going to flow through because the demand for the drugs still exists in our country. If we really want to do something about shutting down the drug traffic coming we must get our demand for the under control, this will limit the control of the drug cartels and we will have an easier time shutting them down. But since this administration wants nothing to do shutting down the demand they will keep the drugs coming in so they further their agenda. But keeping the oil under the control of US firms, that would mean keeping a fighter/bomber wing, one close air support wing, and one division of military people operating from French Guiana through Columbia to control the cartels but also to stop the flows arms and munitions into Venezuela. So we have Afghanistan all over again except we are following the Putin Model to control the territory. In other words, a lot of people mostly innocents will be killed by our military and we will be lucky to get oil out of Caracas.

    One thing that any country has the rights to is the resources on or below their land. Nationalization of those resources and the right to change how those resources are extracted is solely the right of that country. If the President truly understood history, he would understand why Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Iraq, and Iran all nationalized their oil and we never took more than a diplomatic stance to try retain some interest of that resource. The losses by the oil companies far out weigh those lost in Venezuela yet the US Government stayed out of the fray. The oil companies wrote the loss on their taxes. Such is the life of being in an extraction industry.

    Where do We the People go from here? We the people need to remove the our present Administration from the President whit all his lackeys in the Cabinet, department heads, second in commands, and congressional lackeys, and at least four Supreme Court members from office. Then put in a TEMPORARY GOVERNMENT to clean up the mess this Administration has caused. We hold the Mid term elections as scheduled to replace members of Congress as required and then in 2028 hold an election to replace the TEMPORARY GOVERNMENT.

    In further posts here I want to put forward some ideas to consider from decreasing the power of the drug cartels to Constitutional Amendments to help make sure we can keep our Government of People, For the People and By the People.

  • WAR For OIL?!!!

    This morning the Administration bombed Caracas Venezuela destroying port facilities, military barracks, and abducting Madura and his wife. The initial justification for this act of war was to capture Madura and his wife for being the head of a major cocaine smuggling ring to bring him to New York City to put him and his wife who were indicted six years ago and put them on trial. But then during the President’s Address he said it was all about recovering the Venezuelan oil fields for their “rightful” owners – US oil companies.

    Putting aside the fact the type of attack done this morning is under International Law, an Act of War, the attacks on the “Drug Smuggling Boats” have violated the Geneva Convention by killing those who might have survived a missile strike and were no longer a credible combatant, this administration is stealing a sovereign nation’s resources by going after the oil. It would seem that our President is acting more like Vladimir Putin than he is following the rules of law and war.

    Now I believe the President when he say’s its about oil and I wonder what he was paid by the oil companies for this. We taxpayers have put up the front the money to move our military into the Caribbean Sea, put the lives of our military personnel at risk to further enrich a company like Exxon Mobile? $2/gallon gas, maybe but not likely. The President has made us a group of bandits no better than the drug cartels. so the Venezuelan people have nothing to gain from all this so we will now have to have a military presence in a hostile environment to protect the interests of the oil companies and that will only cost us taxpayers a minimal amount say about $1 Trillion a year for as long as the oil flows that should only run the price of gasoline up to $4 per gallon, because of the risk the oil companies are taking, and add about another one or two trillion dollars to the national debt each year. Great Fiscal responsibility! Then there will be the dead and wounded coming back home, we saw this in the Viet Nam war, and the Second Gulf war, neither of which worked to our advantage and our veterans and their families suffer the most. But the Oil Company CEOs will be happy.

    I believe that the President no longer has the good of our nation and people as his primary interest, We as the people need to stand up to our Congress and demand the removal of the President and his entire group of flunkies NOW. Mark my words, Trump will try to pull a typical dictator move and cancel the mid-term elections because we will have a war going on in South America, and when he does that we will cease to be a Democracy. We will be no better off than the Russian people.

    Sorry to less on decorum my friends but when someone like Trump puts the lives of our military at risk to enrich people who stroke his ego or fill his pockets, I cannot be calm and measured nor should each of you. War is not glorious it is dirty, bloody, and deadly ask any veteran who ever had to fight in a a place like Fallujah.

  • For Every Thing There Is a Season

    This is a time of year that people have traditionally come together. In the northern hemisphere it is the time of darkness , cold, and hunger. In ancient times the winter solstice was celebrated as the turning point, the sun would start to return the days getting longer and it was the time of rebirth for the earth and it’s people. Christianity very early in it’s existence chose this time to celebrate the birth of Jesus for the same symbolism.

    In order to survive the winter our ancestors came together so their communities would live on. Food, heat, and shelter were shared so that most of the community would survive. When Christianity took hold in Europe this would become the basis their communities to come together and share what they had with others. As a Jesuit brother told me “God saw the people were having problems with following 10 simple rules so he sent Jesus with two rules – Love thy God and Love thy Neighbor” This season no matter who you pray to, is the time follow that second rule.

    We divided into factions now, we have fostered hate and fear of our neighbor, we walk past the cold, the hungry, the sick, the homeless while we are encouraged to spend our money on trinkets that will be forgotten in a month to enrich those who could care less for needy in our communities, The saddest of this is for each of us all it would cost us is a bit of our excesses. I urge each of you to volunteer to help prepare and serve Christmas Dinner at the halfway houses, the homeless shelters, When you see someone is cold give them that blanket that no longer matches your color scheme, a coat, gloves, scarves you haven’t worn for years or an old pair of shoes. These are simple acts of kindness. There our many more ways you can show these people that they are not forgotten.

    So make this a season to change, our leadership may not care about the least of and only for themselves, but each of us can show we care about the least of us. The message of this season is if we can show a person that one of us cared enough to give them hope, maybe they regain the courage to change the course of their life. This is what it means to Love thy Neighbor

    I wish every one you a Happy Christmas and a bright New Year and may you free from sorrow and pain.

  • Birth Right Citizenship

    Amendment 14 to the Constitution Article 1 states:

    Section 1.
    All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

    EVERY person born in this Country after 1868 is covered by this amendment. No matter who your parents are or where they came from. Whether your ancestor were Native American, Hispanic, African, Irish, Scottish, English, Slavic, German, French or whatever your genetic heritage may be. And all of your civil rights come from this amendment because it accurately and succinctly states who is a citizen and they have the rights stated within Our Constitution.

    Our current President has decided to do away with this by Executive Order. A lower court ruling the Executive Order was not constitutional and that ruling was appealed, the ruling was upheld and now the Trump Administration has an appeal that the Supreme Court has agreed to hear. Should the Supreme Court rule in favor of the Trump Administration overturning over 150 years of interpretation and Supreme Court precedent then that would give our president the right make away ANY PERSON BORN OR NATURALIZED citizen, essentially, an illegal immigrant. What a way to deal with all of your enemies! No right to due process, you can’t vote, you can’t travel anywhere, don’t matter you if were or are in the military, no rights at all, at least according to our new version of the Gestapo – ICE. And then they have total control of you. All of material assets are now government property and if you are lucky you might get deported to Sudan or more likely you will be put in an ICE controlled work camp and used for slave labor. Don’t buy the snake oil that it will only apply to present illegal immigrants, or to Foreign women who happen to be in the United States when they give birth. IT WILL APPLY TO ANYONE THE PRESENT ADMINISTRATION WANTS TO SUPPRESS !!!!

    But that is not all if the Supreme Court decides in favor of the Trump Administration they will have held that these six justices, the same ones who gave the President Total Lifetime Immunity from prosecution no matter what type transgression is committed, will solidify their power to declare any part of the Constitution is unconstitutional, As logically absurd that is. The Framers gave us a two ways to change the Constitution; Congress can propose an Amendment and send it to the States for ratification or for the States to call for a constitutional convention to hammer out they changes that all of them can agree on.

    The Supreme Court may have made some bad judgements in the past but the Court has never given anything close to the power this court has given to this President. All in the name of the Federalist Society and Project 2025. Let them know that we are watching them and their puppeteers that they are still accountable to We the People.
