After 1 week, Biden's peace and unity is over.

DAILY EXECUTIVE ORDERS THAT STICK A THUMB IN THE EYE OF  OPPOSITION

NO ATTEMPT AT UNITY, JUST POWER POLITICS


After one week of the Biden/Obama administration we see that all the talk of unity was just that, talk. It is clear that there is no effort being made to address the concerns of a large segment of the American population. It is clear he is the president of Washington D.C. and the elite of New York and silicon valley. He is not interested in the well being of the country as a whole, but in the political wishes of his contributors and those who reject an independent United States in favor of a global government. While they promise equality they really want to usher in a new era of Feudalism. A system with a new aristocracy of the few and powerful and a large number of peasants, that will need to be controlled.

We see the daily attempt to control and suppress any opposition even in congress, those with an opposing view are now dangerous and should be ousted from their elected office. The atmosphere in Congress and the Senate is deteriorating by the day, it looks like it will only get more hostile

Freedom of speech is freedom of speech, even if you don't like it, even if it offends you, even if it should be inaccurate. America always believed that the truth would prevail and freedom of speech was the 1st amendment to the constitution for a reason. It was part of the bill of RIGHTS. Not to be determined by who or what party is in power at the time.  

Now we see that the plan to pack the courts is in fact a real goal of this administration, any such act will make this administration a traitor to the constitution and rule of law. It will make this government illegitimate and a dictatorship. If there no longer is an effective third branch of government, there will no longer be any system of checks and balances. With the other tendencies that we see, it will evolve into the worst kind of totalitarian government.

While many did not support the Biden election, most hoped we would see a refrain from overreaching, a tendency of left that has been more the norm than the exception in recent years. It now looks like, as some have predicted, it is a rush to insure one party rule forever and to squash any opposition or difference of opinion. If political domination is the ultimate goal of this administration it is going to be a catastrophe for this nation. 

While the left has been openly talking and supporting socialist revolution, we better hope we don't end up with something more like the French revolution.

Why not create new jobs before destroying old jobs.

THE DOWNWARD ECONOMIC SPIRAL HAS ALREADY BEGUN 

REMEMBER WHEN POLITICIANS PROMISED THE NEW HIGH TECH JOBS THAT WOULD REPLACE THE OLD MANUFACTURING JOBS?


I guess they feel that after 30 years, the old lie will work again. In the 1990's we were told not to worry, all those manufacturing jobs that are going to be destroyed by trade deals that were designed to equalize living standards around the world would be replaced with new higher paying hi-tech jobs. It was a lie then and promising hi-tech green jobs is a lie now.

If they really believe they can replace oil and gas jobs with hi-tech green jobs, why don't they do it now? Why destroy jobs and living standards, make the country dependent on foreign resources and lower the standard living of all Americans? They promise after all that destruction, to provide new green jobs as a replacement. It is the big lie all over again. Are Americans workers going to fall for this same story again.

I for one believe that fossil fuels likely will reach a point were they will  need to be replaced by some sort of cleaner and more reliable energy source. I do not believe that there is an infinite supply of fossil fuels. I also believe cluttering up the landscape with windmills and solar panels is not a real viable alternative.

We often hear the phrase that we need to rely on science, except when it interferes with a political and socialist agenda.

I also believe engaging on a path of economic and social destruction is not going to be the best way to replace these energy sources.

It is a fact, that if the U.S. would eliminate all our carbon emissions it would not make any difference in global warming.  Our economic suicide would not reverse this trend while China, India and others will replace our regulated industries with truly dirty unregulated industries. 

If we destroy our fossil fuel industry without having a replacement ready to go, we will move more of our economic wealth to China and other countries. They will inevitably be the producers of these green jobs. A new energy source that is going to be unreliable and insufficient. Just look at how many sunny days we have had in Pennsylvania the last 60 days. Either these people are just plain stupid or they have another agenda, I fear it is the latter.

Americans should insist that if we are going to replace fossil fuels, we need to come up with a viable solution before we scrap the existing system. If not, we can expect a huge decline in our economic and personal well-being, all for a false promise that they know is a lie.

Biden motto, "Make America dependent again"

NO POLICIES TO ENCOURAGE JOBS OR SELF SUFFICIENCY

HOW LONG UNTIL THE RESULTS ARE APPARENT? 


After one week of executive orders and legislative proposals, it is clear that the Biden administration is not focused on creating jobs or endorsing policies that make America and American's self sufficient. It is a policy of dependence on the government and foreign interests.

One of his first edicts was pulling the permit for the keystone pipe-line. This will likely result in at least a temporary loss of thousands of jobs and income for those states involved. It will also result in lawsuits by companies here and in Canada, with likely billions in damages paid by the U.S. government. It has also damaged the trade treaty with Canada and Mexico.

This act along with his suspension of drilling on Federal land will raise the cost of energy, resulting in the loss of more jobs and the ability of some Americans to sustain their debt payment.

It will also move this country back to a dependence on foreign oil and the resulting economic and political involvement and manipulation that has kept us in numerous wars for decades.

The hoped for replacement in jobs from the solar and wind industry, that will never happen without massive subsidies from the federal government and will result in more business with China and more dependence on foreign manufacturing. 

It will also shift transportation of oil back to rail, much which is owned by Warren Buffet, a big donor to Biden and the democrats. Transportation of oil by rail and truck is the most expensive and most dangerous way, spills and accidents are inevitable.

He has suspended deportations of all illegal immigrants and his policy has encouraged more illegal immigrants who will soon be pouring across the southern border. This will depress the wages for unskilled workers all across the country and result in may more depending on government services.

Now he is proposing a $15.00 minimum wage for the whole country. Any federal government mandated increase on 50 separate states with 50 different economies is just plain dumb. Most places in Pa. today are paying $11 or $12 for low level workers. They are actually having a hard time finding workers that show up or do not have drug problems. In some states $15 is a low wage in some it may be middle class. It will cause huge disruptions to the economies and will result in less jobs and more automation. It will also likely be the last straw for many businesses struggling to stay afloat in these perilous times. The federal government should not be in the business of setting wages in the private sector. It will not end well.

These are just a few of the new anti-job and ant-self-sufficiency proposals, more are coming by the day. We will see more Americans dependent on government programs and foreign products. We will inevitably see a slow down in the economy. It seems that making political statements and political policies are going to be much more important than policies that will make America stronger and more self-sufficient.

Fake news is as fake as ever.

 NEWS MEDIA REPORTS OUTLIER POLLS AS FACT

OF COURSE, ONLY ON THOSE THEY OPPOSE


Last week all the media including Fox reported that Donald Trumps approval rating hit an all time low of 29%., this poll was conducted by Pew research.

This poll according to Real Clear collection of polls is an outlier, it is reported they only polled 32 % of republicans. This poll is likely to have been an intentionally biased poll to fit their hoped for narrative. 

Yesterday, January 25 Rasmussen did the first poll on Biden and he had a 48% approval.

January 20, inauguration day Harvard-Harris had Trump at 47%
January 20, the economist had Trump at 44%

January 19 Rasmussen had Trump at 51%.

Trump's polls in the last few weeks has been in 43 to 47 % about were it has been for the last 4 years.

Biden's polls are likely to be at there highest level, this is, as they say, still the honeymoon period of American politics. We can expect to see fake pools near 60 if necessary, but the fact is in today's political environment high 40's may be as good as it gets.

Establishment politicians, Media and administrative state still don't get it.

 TRUMP AND AMERICA FIRST IS A REACTION TO THE POLICIES OF THE PAST

REPRESSION AND CONDEMNATION WILL NOT MAKE IT GO AWAY



We now hear that those who supported Trump need to be deprogrammed from their cultish following of Cult leader Donald Trump. That the America First agenda needs to destroyed and anyone who espouses such a policy needs to be suppressed, alienated and possibly destroyed.

The piling on in the last week has now accelerated into a frenzy of very dangerous propaganda. Their fear of America First is now becoming more evident by the day. It seems somehow they believe that they can shame those who believe in a America with borders, that protect its workers from unfair trade arrangements, who oppose putting foreign interests ahead of the well being of American citizens, who do not believe that the federal government needs to control and regulate every aspect of American life and reject the policy that American citizens should support the policies of a select few that send our soldiers and spend our tax dollars on every dispute around the world. Many of these disputes actually created by these same geniuses meddling in the affairs of other nations.

Donald Trump is not the originator of a desire for an America first policy, he is just the spokesmen up to now. 

It is likely that policies planned by the coming Jobama administration will in a short time actually grow America First into more broad support. Many who were put off by the style and the demeanor of Trump will likely see the validity of the arguments made in the last 4 years. After all, it was the policies of Bush and Obama that made the presidency of Trump possible. 

We see the list growing of the likely Republican presidential candidates for 2024, most are delusional. The likes of Mitt Romney, John Kasich, Pat Toomey or some Bush dynasty member can not win the nomination in the new Republican party. They just don't know it yet. Any such nominee put forth from the back room, if nominated, will lose to any democrat opponent. The days of nose-holding voting are over.  It is a fact that the republican party will never be the same. Some actually believe establishment republicans really don't want to be in the majority, but would rather be back benchers complaining about democrat policies, but never really stopping them, just allowing a slow decline of America as a country.

It is also a fact that the democrat coalition is about to embark on a realignment of their own. Without Trump as a foil, they will have a clear picture of their future and how to deal with their buyers remorse.

The Democrats now believe they have some kind of mandate to continue the fundamental transformation of America into some kind of  Utopian socialist state. They actually claim they are using California as a model for the future of the country. While they will likely continue to attack Trump, their policies will now become the reality that they refused to espouse during the campaign. While Biden ran on being the lesser of 2 evils, his party and their policies will now be in focus for all to see.

Impeachment 2, Dems get to kick Trump on his way out.

 IMPEACHMENT IS NOW JUST ANOTHER MEANINGLESS POLITICAL WEAPON

IT MAY BECOME A REGULAR TACTIC BY THE MAJORITY



So, The Democratic majority house has fulfilled their promise to the Democratic base that they would impeachment Trump. They promised this before the inauguration, even made it happen twice, a new record for partisan politics. I am sure that it is not the last we will hear of impeachment. It is likely to become a regular feature of U.S. politics.

The first impeachment was brought forth, when Trump had the audacity to question leaders in Ukraine about the corruption of the Biden family. Any mention of corruption by establishment politicians it seems is a no, no. Expect the full force of the federal government. First it was debunked. Then it was, of course, Russian disinformation. Now within days we can expect it will all go away and be labeled a political investigation. 

The second impeachment was brought forth when a peaceful protest about election fraud got out of hand by a small number of the protesters. Of course, we have never seen such protests get out of hand by Antifa and Black lives matter, even when they destroyed business's and cities for months. The real offense was to suggest that there was voter fraud in the 2020 election.  What most people wanted, including a large number of house members and senators, was to have a bi-partisan view of the results with some audits of the most egregious accusations. Their hope was that a transparent view would restore confidence in the election by all Americans. Now we are told that all is well, no fraud, take our word for it, and if you don't you are a conspirator and unhinged. You may even be subject to some penalty, yet to be determined.

That approach just magnifies the beliefs of those who have questioned the results. 

So now they claim they are going to send the impeachment over to the Senate for a trial, but to their dismay Trump will not be in the Presidency by the time any trial could be convened. No matter, they say, just got to do it. Even when the first impeachment was advertised as having to be conducted by the Senate in an exclusive manner, with no other business to be conducted by the Senate. Even while occurring with the onset of the Covid-19 problem. It is likely much of this has to do to pressure Trump to do, or not do, certain things before he leaves office. It has not worked before and will unlikely work now. It seems rules are now to be changed whenever it is inconvenient or not in the political interest of the majority.

I have no problem with such a trial, let the Senators spew forth their hate. Make them all vote, including the Republicans, and especially those who have a hope of running for president in 2024. After all, they would not want to run against Trump in 2024. 

I think Trump has served his tour of duty, he should now look to see where he can be effective in the future or just plain enjoy life. He has not only changed the politics of the U.S. forever, but also internationally. Biden is inheriting a far different world than the one he left in 2016. His administration is nothing more than the third Obama term, including most of the appointees. If they believe they can now reignite the middle east, they may find that those leaders have seen something better from the U.S. and may not be so easily manipulated. If they want to cozy up to Iran, they will find  few allies in the middle-east.

At home, he will have the power of the media, which has been diminished for much of the nation. It is obvious the left fears an honest debate on the issues, that is why they are attempting to suppress free speech by their opposition. A much larger and better informed opposition. They may attempt to suppress them, but they will not make them go away.
