Lots Of American Voters Aren’t Wedded To Either Political Party, And May Boycott Both

  By Timothy D. Naegele[1]

I began as a Democrat in a devoutly-Republican, Southern California family, because of John F. Kennedy.  Indeed, I was in Los Angeles’ Coliseum when he gave his acceptance speech at the 1960 Democratic Convention, even though I was not old enough to vote.  Years later, I passed up a chance to return to a prestigious law firm in San Francisco because I thought service to my country was the right thing to do.[2]

I spent two years at the Pentagon as an Army officer assigned to the Defense Intelligence Agency, and then pounded the corridors of Capitol Hill, trying to find a job, which I did.  It was heady work, with some of the political giants of the times.[3]  But there was and is a seedy side to American politics, which equaled or surpassed what happened in Hollywood (or Los Angeles) where I grew up.[4]

When I left the U.S. Senate, I concluded that the Democrats were “evil” but smart, while the Republicans were “Neanderthals” and dumb.[5]  Hence, I became an Independent and have been one ever since.  The Kennedy men, I learned, were evil—with essentially no redeeming qualities.  And the Democrats have rigged elections, including JFK’s in 1960.[6]

They have targeted their Republican opponents unmercifully, including Richard Nixon with Watergate, Ronald Reagan with Iran Contra, and Donald Trump—who has been attacked from Day One of his quest for political office.  And the Republicans are too stupid or inept to stop them.  We have Brain Dead Joe Biden in the White House, with Willie Brown’s former ho Kamala Harris waiting in the wings for him to croak, yet the Republicans seem unwilling or impotent to jettison them.[7]

What both political parties don’t appreciate, much less fathom fully, is that Americans don’t need either political party.  Lots of us stopped voting for Democrats years ago; and as we see the “vested interests” in the GOP targeting Trump, it is very easy for us to abstain from voting altogether.  The problem is that by defaulting, the Democrats become the victors, in perpetuity.  Therein lies the rub.  Another factor is that the Democrats might have gotten crushed except for young voters who were swayed by the abortion issue, and tragically have supported Infanticide.[8]

Meanwhile, Brain Dead Joe takes his pathetic “victory lap” globally, conceding that China owns Taiwan, just as he ceded Afghanistan to the Taliban.[9]  The GOP needs to dump Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy as leaders.  They are feckless at best.[10]  And never underestimate Donald Trump, nor discount the possibility that he will return to the presidency.  The always-despicable Democrats, the “vested interests” in the GOP, and their fellow travelers will try to convince you otherwise.[11]

At the very least, McCarthy must not stand in the way of investigations into the criminality of Joe and Hunter Biden, the AG Merrick Garland, FBI Director Christopher Wray and others.

Dump Brain Dead Joe, McCarthy, Pelosi and their ilk, and Republicans like Karl Rove who gave us the Iraq War—in which more than 5,000 Americans died and many more were maimed for life, and staggering amounts of money were wasted for nothing—and never trust any of them.

Have American Voters Indicted The GOP?

  By Timothy D. Naegele[1]

“Republicans In Shock” was one of the headlines at the once-conservative and bellwether Drudge website.[2]  Another was “Fox News Freaks,” which aptly describes the reaction by most at the largely-conservative news network’s roundtable of its anchors and invited guests.  This brings to mind the folk tale about Chicken Little, who believes the world is coming to an end, and proclaims: “The sky is falling.”[3]

Political pundit and former Clinton adviser Dick Morris says nonsense.  The Republicans have made enormous progress; and Donald Trump has made all the difference.  Without him, none of this would have been possible.[4]

When I left the U.S. Senate, I concluded that the Democrats were “evil” but smart, while the Republicans were “Neanderthals” and dumb.  This was the resounding message or takeaway from Tuesday’s national elections, and why I have been an Independent for so many years.[5]

Tragically, we live in a Kardashian nation where bimbos can become billionaires; organized religion is despised, and God is honored in the breach; human lives are devalued, with abortions on demand—or Infanticide—being championed; and Brain Dead Joe Biden in the White House, with Kamala Harris waiting in the wings for him to croak.

Our allies don’t understand or respect us, while our enemies—principally Xi Jinping in China, Russia’s butcher Vladimir Putin and North Korea’s Kim Jong-un—are moving globally like chess masters to weaken if not destroy us. In short, the inmates are in charge of the asylum; and the GOP’s predicted “red wave” did not materialize . . . although Donald Trump’s endorsed candidates were very successful.

American politics seems to reside in the status quo; and one wonders whether Donald Trump can breath life into its body and soul before the 2024 presidential elections.  His “MAGA” or “Make America Great Again” followers have to be dispirited.  And the Trump haters are dancing with joy, believing that he may be indicted and fade into the rear-view mirror of history.

Like Mark Twain, the reports of his death and political demise may be an exaggeration and premature.[6]  Like Lazarus, he may rise from the grave.[7]  Those who wish the worst for Trump, and believe he is a crass opportunist, may find themselves on the wrong side of history.  He and Mark Twain may have the last laugh; and may not be consigned to the ash heap of history.

In the interim, the midterm elections are essentially over; and Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and their thoroughly-evil Democrats must be counted as losers.  While in the vernacular of the surfing world, it wasn’t known as “wipeout”—a red wave did engulf them.  By all reckoning, they did lose control of the House of Representatives; and yes, it’s an opportune time to gloat and for “payback,” after everything they have put our great country and all Americans through.[8]

Many of us began as Democrats, and are enraged by how our former party has become so radicalized.  Perhaps George Orwell described it best in his prescient Animal Farm, when he wrote about the takeover by the Pigs, and how they subjugated the other animals.[9]  Clearly, the Pigs today—or the uber-Leftists, “Progressives” and eco-Nazis—must be obliterated, never to rise again.[10]

Every single policy change that they initiated after stealing the 2020 election from Donald Trump must be reversed and eliminated forever.  Their lackeys in the media who covered for them and became co-conspirators, via “Fake News,” must be fired.  Elon Musk threw out the number of 75 percent with respect to Twitter’s staff.  It must be decimated.[11]  At America’s corrupt “Department of Justice” and FBI, the housecleaning must be complete and unprecedented.[12]

This leads to a discussion of 2024, and who will represent each of America’s two major political parties.  California’s Governor Gavin Newsom, who is related to Nancy Pelosi, may lead the Democrats’ list.  But his star is fading, inter alia, because of his wife’s links to Harvey Weinstein.[13]  Donald Trump is expected to run again, perhaps with Florida’s Governor Ron DeSantis as his running mate, which may be formidable and unbeatable.

All of this is occurring against the backdrop of a possible nuclear confrontation, which might destroy the United States.  This too is a direct result of Joe Biden’s mental incapacity, and criminality.[14]  Where is God in the midst of such changes, and what so many perceive as utter chaos and Godlessness?[15]

[5]  Obviously, there are vast numbers of Democrats who are “victims,” and have voted for Republicans or decided not to vote at all.  Like the author of this article, they believe their party has left them.  And they disagree with its trajectory.

[9]  See, e.g., https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_Farm#Plot_summary

[10]  Joe Biden must be impeached and removed from the presidency.  Aside from his obvious mental incapacities, he is a criminal and must be treated as such.

See, e.g., https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11368895/President-Biden-claims-FIFTY-FOUR-states-concerns-age-continue-mount.html (“Sure about that, Joe? President Biden, 79, claims US has FIFTY-FOUR states as concerns continue to mount about his cognitive abilities”) and https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11380139/Bidens-gaffe-filled-speech-Calls-Debbie-Wasserman-Schultz-senator-says-son-Beau-died-Iraq.html (“Biden’s gaffe-filled speech: President refers to congresswoman as ‘senator’, claims son Beau died in Iraq and makes bizarre claim he met the ‘inventor’ of insulin – a naturally occurring hormone discovered in 1921”)

Obviously, what to do about Kamala Harris is the next order of business.  She is pathetic, and the laughingstock of the world.

See, e.g., https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2022/10/republicans-investigate-possible-impeachment-joe-biden/671859/  (“The Impeachment of Joe Biden”)

This article is weak, but it discusses many of the relevant issues.  Among those that are implicit is Jim Jordan’s role as a future Speaker, replacing Kevin McCarthy and Nancy Pelosi.

See https://www.mediaite.com/election-2022/knives-are-out-for-kevin-mccarthy-fox-news-jacqui-heinrich-reports-gop-drama-following-underwhelming-midterms/ (“‘Knives are Out for Kevin McCarthy’: Jacqui Heinrich Reports”); see also https://saraacarter.com/jordan-warns-doj-and-fbi-not-immune-from-transparency-or-above-accountability/#comment-4223

Groups such as J Street, which champion reconciliation between the Palestinians and the Israelis, have become de facto arms of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), or “DNC-lite.”  They preach hatred of Donald Trump, the MAGA (or “Make America Great Again”) movement, and Republicans; and they desperately try to avoid becoming irrelevant and losing their fund-raising capabilities.

At the very least, AG Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray must be indicted, convicted and imprisoned for their many crimes.  Retribution must be swift, but it must not stop with them.

“There is a lot more to this.  But we will never know the truth.  Like what happen[ed] to male/female in car with him on night of wreck [in Napa].”

Whatever the truth about Paul Pelosi’s sexual preferences and proclivities, it’s indisputable that he made millions from Nancy’s position as Speaker; and he was caught by the police in Napa, California with alcohol and drugs.

Let The Celebrations Begin—Putin Will Die Soon

  By Timothy D. Naegele[1]

Vladimir Putin will die, hopefully a grisly death.  This is an immutable fact—of how the civilized world views him.  He alone is principally responsible for the killing of innocent Ukrainians; the raping and disfigurement of Ukrainian women, men and children; and the suffering of so many.

The more he suffers, the louder and longer will be the exhalations and celebrations.  He and Russians are viewed as global pariahs, and very sick perverts.[2]  Yes, that may seem harsh, cruel and even Godless, but what he has done to destroy Ukraine and its courageous people is sadistic and barbaric at the very least.  He is pure evil, incarnate.

Soon, Russia may implode like the Soviet Union before it, and exist no more.  Putinism will die with Putin.[3]  The rape of approximately 2 million German women by the Soviet military—aka Russian barbarians—when they entered Berlin at the end of World War II, will have been avenged, somewhat.

Now a healing must take place, or at least begin, among Ukrainians.  Those who fled their country must be welcomed back; and its heroes must be honored.  Families must be reconstituted; and rebuilding must take place.  Like the fall of the USSR, and in particular Berlin and Dresden in East Germany (or the DDR), reconstruction will erase the most visible scars of a war that will never be forgotten.

Lastly, America’s despicable Left—aka Democrats or so-called “Progressives”—have rigged our elections since the days of John F. Kennedy.  They have encouraged riots in our streets by the thugs, slugs, hoods and mongrels of “Black Lives Matter,” Antifa and other far-Left groups, which have killed or hurt innocent Americans including our police; and destroyed black and other businesses.  Now, they are rioting again and trying to subvert decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court.[4]

The U.S. Supreme Court Is A Tragic, Pathetic Joke

 By Timothy D. Naegele[1]

The U.S. Supreme Court just issued its decision in Gamble v. United States, and “left the door open for state prosecutors to prosecute Trump campaign officials regardless of whether federal officials have already done so.”[2]  In his dissenting opinion, Justice Neil Gorsuch—President Trump’s first appointment to the Court—wrote: 

A free society does not allow its government to try the same individual for the same crime until it’s happy with the result. Unfortunately, the Court today endorses a colossal exception to this ancient rule against double jeopardy.  My colleagues say that the federal government and each State are “separate sovereigns” entitled to try the same person for the same crime. So if all the might of one “sovereign” cannot succeed against the presumptively free individual, another may insist on the chance to try again. And if both manage to succeed, so much the better; they can add one punishment on top of the other. But this “separate sovereigns exception” to the bar against double jeopardy finds no meaningful support in the text of the Constitution, its original public meaning, structure, or history. Instead, the Constitution promises all Americans that they will never suffer double jeopardy. I would enforce that guarantee.[3]

Our Supreme Court has been a tragic, pathetic joke for years, certainly since it blessed infanticide in Roe v. Wade—and the killing of more than 55 million American babies.[4]  Also, Chief Justice John Roberts constitutes the second worst decision that former President George W. Bush made during his eight-year presidency—other than the senseless Iraq War in which more than 5,000 Americans died and many more were maimed, and trillions of dollars were wasted, for nothing.[5]

Perhaps an editorial of The New York Sun described the Gamble decision best:

How is it possible that, after all the tumult over the Supreme Court, the only two justices to grasp the plain language of the Constitution in respect of double jeopardy are — wait for it — Neil Gorsuch and Ruth Bader Ginsburg? It’s amazing enough that there are but two sages for the bedrock prohibition on double jeopardy. More amazing still that the question unites the right- and left-most justices.

The case, known as Gamble v. U.S., involves an ex-con named Terance Martez Gamble. He was pulled over in a traffic stop in 2015 at Alabama. A gun was found in his possession in violation of both Alabama and American law. Gamble pled to the state charges and drew a year. Then the federales turned around and charged him again for the same offense, drawing additional time for the same deed.

The justices rejected his appeal in an opinion — by Justice Alito — that reminds us of President Clinton’s hemming about how it depends on what the meaning of “is” is. In this case, it depends on the meaning of the word “offense.” The justices reckon there were two offenses, one carrying the blasted gun in Alabama and the other the same gun at the same time in the United States. Could the United Nations also charge him?

. . .

Justice Thomas, sage of what Myron Magnet, in his new book, calls the “lost Constitution,” manages to concur with the majority’s ruling against Gamble while attacking stare decisis. The ink wasn’t even dry on his concurrence when the press started warning that Justice Thomas was — yet again — prepping the ground for overturning Roe v. Wade. Others were more focused on the implications of Gamble for Paul Manafort.

New York, after all, is preparing to bring charges against President Trump’s former campaign manager even while Manafort sits in the Big House hoping for a pardon on federal charges. It’s not so clear, though, that New York will throw at Manafort the same charges Mr. Mueller levied. To discern differences between the federal and state cases against Gamble, though, one would need an electron microscope.

Our own interest in this case is neither stare decisis nor Paul Manafort nor Ms. Roe nor Mr. Wade. It is the plain language of the Fifth Amendment, where the prohibition against double jeopardy is laid down. Our national parchment was supposed to be a bar against such injustices as the state appealing acquittals or the law chasing someone from one court to another.

This is beautifully marked by both Justices Ginsburg and Gorsuch in two dissents. Justice Ginsburg, citing precedent about the separateness of federal and state laws, warned of “frittering away” Gamble’s liberty “upon a metaphysical subtlety, two sovereignties.” Thundered Justice Gorsuch: “A free society does not allow its government to try the same individual for the same crime until it’s happy with the result.”

It is not our intention to suggest that there can never be, say, a federal prosecution after a state acquittal. During the Jim Crow era, southern juries often ignored the facts. In those cases, though, the argument would be, and was, that the accused racists were never in genuine jeopardy in the first place. That is not what happened in the case of Terance Gamble.

All the more inspiring that the two dissenting judges from opposite ideological ends of the bench came together on this bedrock. It doesn’t suggest the confirmation battles are about nothing. It does remind all of us not to panic. The thinness of the vapors at the altitude where these justices breathe makes it hard to predict how they will behave. History teaches that great dissents have a way of getting vindicated over time.[6]

We can only hope that Justice Gorsuch’s dissenting opinion becomes the law of the land, which is not very promising given the 7-2 ruling—or for Paul Manafort and others who tried to help President Trump and may be caught in the insidious web of double jeopardy.  We have to thank our Supreme Court again for the perpetuation (or creation) of tragic injustices.[7]
