TRUMP'S "AMERICA FIRST" HAS NO PLACE IN 'AGENDA JOURNALISM!'
TRUMP'S "AMERICA FIRST" HAS NO PLACE IN 'AGENDA JOURNALISM!'
The disconnect between American’s and their family, friends,
and co-workers seems to becoming from the belief of who and what we are and
should be as a country! We are a land made of immigrants who sacrificed the
safety of their families to escape their perceived injustices to make to a
place they had only heard about, but a possible place where dreams and
religious freedoms might be able to be realized. Everybody came from somewhere
else, but all were escaping an intimidating past that threatened their
existence, and the safety of their families.
The identity of those moral and religious beliefs was not the
primary driving force when making their way to America, but life, liberty, and
the pursuit of happiness was, and the mortar that built this country was made,
and the bricks were placed to build the strongest foundation of mutual respect
and a bond that no country in the world has ever experienced!
We are a country of laws, and a country built by immigrants, but the laws about immigration, that are written by immigrant’s past generations, doesn’t
give a sitting President of the United States, who took an oath to defend and
protect the Constitution, a free pass to ignore its straight forward intent and
absolute findings, and substitute it with his own interpretation and intent
through the guise of political correctness and his anti-constitutional
republic’s definition of change!
The Silent Majority saved America’s ass and consists of all
disgruntled political party members who believe that their vote doesn’t matter,
and won’t make a difference. They came out in droves though when they realized
the Progressive Left was attempting to overthrow our Constitutional Republic’s 240-year-old
record of success for a 3rd world globalist, Socialist, and open
border existence.
America dodged a bullet when Trump won the election, and you
can feel and see the positive effects of being a part of the ‘America First’ movement.
The Progressive Left portion of the Liberal agenda won’t throw in the towel and
keep doubling down on Trump being a racist, but contrary to popular belief,
Donald Trump is not a racist. According to Google, the definition of racist is
“a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.” ~~
NO, DONALD TRUMP ISN’T A RACIST!
Trump’s charge that Judge Curiel cannot fairly adjudicate
the Trump University lawsuit is based on his belief that Curiel’s Mexican
heritage creates a natural bias against a presidential candidate that wants to
build a wall between the judge’s born nation and nation of his family ancestry.
While the merits of this charge are certainly debatable (they seem to have
earned precious little merit in the court of public opinion), there has been no
statement from Trump that indicates that he actually feels superior to Judge
Curiel based on the judge’s Hispanic descent. Rather, it’s just another example
of Trump demonstrating that he is an unapologetic nationalist.
In fact, counter to the racism charge, Trump is actually
telegraphing to the nation, through psychological projection, that he would
most likely behave the same way as the judge given the same situation. This is
not racism. This is Trump reminding us that his entire life has been defined by
winning, at any cost.
But, you may be asking, isn’t it racist when he talks about
banning Muslims from entering the U.S. and saying that illegal Mexican
immigrants are rapists and criminals? Nope. Why? Because:
•Muslims aren’t a race
•Mexico isn’t a race
Yes, many of Trumps’ statements seem racist, but it’s just a
plain fact that they’re not.
Why does linguistic accuracy matter? Because there’s an
actual danger for those who inaccurately impugn someone’s character: it can
backfire and damage the accuser’s credibility. Also, it misdiagnoses the
problem many have with Donald Trump as a political candidate. If we misdiagnose
our candidates, then we’ll be voting for or against them for the wrong reasons.
Imagine if — after all of the damage he has done to his
candidacy by saying what he said about Judge Curiel, Mexican immigrants, and
foreign Muslims — Trump parsed this out himself and turned it all around on his
accusers? He would be able to use the rhetorical overreach of racism to
re-enforce the point that the political class and the media elite simply can’t
be trusted, because they just can’t help themselves from exaggerating to make a
point, and ultimately get the analysis wrong as a result.
That would be a spectacular irony. ~~By Jon Deutsch, a Friend

NO, DONALD TRUMP IS NOT AN ANTI-SEMITE!
Straightforward From Here To The Left’s Fascist, Maybe
Violent, Endgame
The Democrat Party, its Media serfs, and Social Justice
Incorporated are all outraged because we uppity normals are again presuming to
rule ourselves, and their agony is delightful. Less delightful is how, in the
process of trying to claw their way back into power, they are incinerating the
norms and rules that preserve our political order. That stuff Hillary babbled
about honoring the legitimacy of elections? Yeah, no. There’s an invisible
asterisk only liberals can see that explains that the norms and rules are void
when liberals lose.
So, where does this crisis end?
We know where the leftists want it to end, with us silenced
and subservient forever, toiling to pay taxes for them to redistribute to their
clients as they pick at, poke at and torment us. You look at the things Trump
stands for and all of them are about lifting the yoke off of us – cutting
taxes, slashing regulations, guaranteeing the Second Amendment, protecting our
religious liberty, and safeguarding us from terrorists and illegals. But
everything liberals want, everything Hillary ran on, is about clamping the yoke
ever tighter around our necks – raising taxes, issuing more regulations,
disarming us, limiting our religious freedom, and putting us at risk from
terrorists and alien criminals. The whole leftist platform is about putting us
down and keeping us down.
They are certainly not going to risk us ever being able to
repeat November’s rejection. California’s decline lays out their tyrannical
road map. When the Democrats took power here, they “reformed” the election laws
to lock-in their party, co-opted the “nonpartisan” redistricting process, and
changed the ballot initiative system to make sure we will never see another
unapproved proposition. They ensured there is no way to stop illegal aliens
from voting because they want illegal aliens voting.
But even that’s not enough. The state government chose to
allow its unofficial catspaws to intimidate and beat dissenters at UC Berkeley.
California’s governing class wanted the thugs to prevail; it was a lesson to
its opponents. I thought my novel People’s Republic, about post-freedom
California, was an action thriller, not the first draft of a future history.
I was wrong.
Do you think Hillary Clinton or whatever aspiring Hugo
Chavez they offer up next is going to protect us from violent leftist thugs, or
encourage them? Remember how Obama weaponized agencies like the IRS against
conservatives? Multiply that by a thousand. Think about the “hate speech” rules
used to silence conservatives on campus; imagine them as federal law. That’s
coming, just like in Europe – it’s now a crime in France to speak out against
abortion. Do you imagine leftists don’t dream of doing that? No, once back in
power they will ensure we will never be able to challenge their rule. One man
(or woman or other), one vote, one more time, then never again.
How will they do it?
This massive resistance campaign against everything Donald
Trump has done and a lot he hasn’t done is one way. The media’s liberal
advocacy and tsunami of fake news is another; the press is now just one more
partisan political player campaigning to restore the establishment to power.
These same liars who fantasize about Trump silencing critics will cheer as the
next Democrat commandante does it for real. Remember how they said nothing when
Democrats voted to repeal the First Amendment so Congress could control speech
during elections?
And they think they’re winning.
Sally Kohn, a CNN commentator perfectly personifies the
left’s combination of utter cluelessness and utter certainty in its own moral
superiority. Drawing from her bottomless well of stupidity, she recently became
infamous for wishcasting about what happens “[s]traight forward from here.” Her
scenario starts with Step 1 (“Impeach Trump & Pence”) and ends with Step 6
(“President Hillary”), thanks to a Constitutional process she created herself
by blending ignorance, fascism, and wanting.
Sally, however, overlooked Step 2.5, where several dozen
million Americans defend the Constitution by taking out their black rifles and
saying, “Oh, hell no.” I assume the patriots determined to protect the Union would
be confronted, for a short and awkward time, by a pro-coup hipster army locked
and loaded with vinyl LPs, participation trophies and unearned self-regard.
There’s no reason not to believe that for these seditious
Democrats, the second time will be the charm.
But this amusing idiocy highlights a much more frightening
possibility. Dennis Prager has written that America is locked in a Second Civil
War already, albeit a cold one. And in light of the absolute rejection by the
left of any legitimacy of the grievances, the interests, or the right to
participate in governing this country of the tens of millions of red Americans,
it’s reasonable to wonder how this can end peacefully. You see read it on
social media, you hear it whispered. Are the wounds to our body politic so deep
they can’t be healed?
I recently polled people on Twitter about what they thought
of the chances of serious violence in the coming four years, and the results
from 6,159 people are alarming. “Stop being a nut” got 10%; I was hoping it
would get about 95%. “We’ll wise up” and find a way out of this crisis, got
13%. But “50/50 leftists may try violence” got a stunning 41%, while “It’s
coming. Gear up” got a terrifying 36%.
So, 77% of the respondents fear serious violence during
Trump’s first term. That’s scary, especially since political warfare is not
unprecedented in history. Forget Bleeding Kansas. Just reflect on the low-grade
insurgency the American left undertook in the 1970s, with more bloodshed than
most people remember, and consider how today the left has significantly more
cultural, institutional and media support. The reality is that there is the
potential for this to get out of control, way out of control, especially
considering the likelihood that leftist violence would be met in kind. That 77%
indicates that the red side is, as the left loves to say, “woke” to the threat.
And the red people have the guns and training, should things degenerate into
serious chaos.
Basically, this country is a powder keg, and leftist fools
who do not understand the danger are figuratively standing around it, firing up
their bongs.
Now, understand that leftist liars will meet this column
with the slander that I (and by extension, you) hope for violence. Skim down
the comments and check out the idiots no doubt infesting my Twitter feed –
you’ll see plenty of such lies. Actually, this is yet another of my several
pleas for sanity and peace (including in my book’s preface). But the left’s
favorite tactic is to deny substantive truth in favor of narrative; what I (and
you) actually believe is irrelevant. This infuriating tactic makes reasoned
discussion and argument impossible anymore, which itself makes violence more
likely since it forecloses the primary method of peacefully resolving
disagreements. If you can’t argue, if you can’t even speak, there’s only one
way to be heard.
The left’s combination of evil and stupidity is the driver
straightforward from here. With the grim understanding that they hate us, we
need to accept that there may be no easy return to peaceful coexistence. Our
goal in electing Donald Trump was to remove the left’s hand from our throat,
not to put our hand around blue peoples’ collective windpipe. We don’t care how
they live their lives, but leftists care very much how we live ours. Their goal
is to lock both hands around our throat and squeeze until we submit to leftist
tyranny or die.
This crisis has to culminate somehow. It could end peacefully,
with a return to the old norms and reasoned competition between ideas. But it
seems no one is interested in that; instead, one side has to win decisively,
and one side has to lose decisively. If so, I say we win and they lose, since
I’m not ready to submit or to die.
