One of the forgotten weeps and pleas for help, crushed by Globalist Crony Capitalism and Marxism.

This is the result of two forces, Marxism and Crony Capitalism. It is not a left vs right problem, it is a Globalism/Marxism/Crony Capitalism vs Nationalist Free Enterprise problem. We have Globalism (much less following Trump's first six months of SMASHING it back). We have Cultural Marxism and actual Marxism ensconced in our Federal Bureaucracy and nearly every institution of Education and NGO institutions. Our economy (True Free Enterprise) is STRANGLED by Globalist Crony Monopoly Capitalism. We are not the "forgotten people" as Trump coined it, but the "disregarded and discarded people" people who tried to pursue Free Enterprise in a system destroyed by both Marxism and Capitalism.

Jamie Dimon Capitalism vs Free Enterprise
Jamie Dimon, JPMorgan’s CEO, believes the press has lost the big picture. In a Friday conference call he said that the U.S. has become “one of the most bureaucratic, confusing, litigious societies on the planet. … It’s amazing to me that every single one of those countries (France, Argentina, Israel, Ireland, India and China) understands that practical policies to promote business and growth is good for the average citizens … somehow (in) this great American free enterprise system, we no longer get it.”
The problem is America has not been a "Free Enterprise System" since 1913. It is a crony capitalist system where huge corporations look to governments to protect and increase their monopolies and bail them out as "too big to fail" when their greed destroys them. They strangle TRUE Main Street Free Enterprise and set a Globalist Crony Capitalist agenda, where even the slave holders of China, (the Chinese Capitalist Elites) are not only tolerated but put up as positive examples, as Dimon just did. He is head of a huge Crony Capitalist entity that was too big to fail. This system is insidious and EVIL, slave owning and amoral. The huge Big Pharma induced opioid epidemic in the U.S. is all the proof any sane person would need to understand the truth of WHAT I am saying.
Free Enterprise is humanitarian, meeting the legitimate need of humanity. Capitalism is Luciferian, using great psyops methods to induce in the brainwashed "wants" they mistake as "needs."
When a Capitalist pig like Jamie Dimon waxes poetic about the need for deregulation, he isn't talking about humanitarian goals. Yes, we drastically need deregulation; we need to starve and kill the "administrative state", but that Administrative State is tied at the hip to Crony Monopoly Capitalists and every one of these Monopoly Corporations needs to be broken into many pieces, answerable to the PEOPLE they should be serving, not KILLING. Further, they need to be regulated so that they are not free to brainwash the public into wasting money on things that KILL them.
Big Pharma's license to brainwash people into drug dependency of multiple types is HELLISH at its core.
Are Passions on the LEFT the Real Problem as Newt Gingrich Suggests?
What is true and untrue in Newt Gingrich's statement?
I really have to push back on the idea of anti-Trump derangement syndrome. Are there people suffering this, yes, but they are not the Psyops Media, the FAKE NEWS. The FAKE NEWS Narrative is a coldly calculated psyops assault on the challenger to their Globalist/Cultural Marxist vision of the future. It is not "insane" it is evil. It is not emotional, it is cunning and calculated.
The panic that is causing them to look the fools they are is a SYMPTOM, not the cause. This alternative reality is not contained in the passion drawn from their hatred of Trump; that would mean that Trump was the cause of their insanity. Their alternative reality is a decades-long Cultural Marxist march into this present Culture of Death, and the goal to spread it into a governing world authority, yet another Utopian Luciferian Dream, another Tower of Babel.
When the problem is reduced to "emotionalism" the means to WIN is obscured. Their "passion" is not the enemy, their calculated Luciferian Plan IS, and under the guise of the "utopian demands of futuristic technology," Newt Gingrich has, in the past, promoted it.

Americans Are Living Under "Intellectual Martial Law"
The Oberton Bubble: Things are really cool inside it until they are not; imagine the sound of a heart monitor signaling "flatline."
The Original Article is at this link - it is a must read to understand how Cultural Marxist Political Correctness destroys not just free speech but the arena of new and innovative ideas and KILLS societies, nations, and institutions problem-solving ability, removing from the equation, common sense. BTW I don't completely agree with his list of things (subjects) he lists inside and outside the "Oberton Bubble." But as a priest, I can testify to the Oberton Bubble in the Christian Churches where the secularist/naturalist/cultural Marxist influence in the Church, especially in the Mainline Protestant Denominations and the Roman Catholic Church has removed from these Institutions their ability to prevent their own suicide. To speak outside the "Bubble" as I have for decades is dangerous and "destroys your career." One is literally viewed as dangerous, as a disrupter, because only sophisticated lies are allowed inside "the Bubble" and truth is damaging to the present false edifice.

Mirror Article Below, in case original is ever taken down.
Authored by James Howard Kunstler via Kunstler.com,
The disgrace of America’s putative intellectual class is nearly complete as it shoves the polity further into dysfunction and toward collapse. These are the people Nassim Taleb refers to as “intellectuals-yet-idiots.” Big questions loom over this dynamic: How did the thinking class of America sink into this slough of thoughtlessness? And why – what is motivating them?
One path to understanding it can be found in this sober essay by Neal Devers, The Overton Bubble, published two years ago on TheFuturePrimaeval.net — a friend turned me on to it the other day (dunno how I missed it). The title is a reference to the phenomenon known as the Overton Window. Wikipedia summarizes it:
The Overton Window, also known as the window of discourse, is the range of ideas the public will accept…. The term is derived from its originator, Joseph P. Overton (1960–2003), a former vice president of the Mackinac Center for Public Policy….
Devers refines the definition:
The Overton Window is a concept in political sociology referring to the range of acceptable opinions that can be held by respectable people. “Respectable” of course means that the subject can be integrated with polite society. Respectability is a strong precondition on the ability to have open influence in the mainstream.
This raises another question: who exactly is in this corps of “respectable people” who set the parameters of acceptable thought? Primarily, the mainstream media — The New York Times, The WashPo, CNN, etc. — plus the bureaucratic functionaries of the permanent government bureaucracy, a.k.a. the Deep State, who make and execute policy, along with the universities which educate the “respectable people” (the thinking class) into the prevailing dogmas and shibboleths of the day, and finally the think tanks and foundations that pay professional “experts” to retail their ideas.
The Overton Window can be viewed as a mechanism of political control, demonizing anyone who departs from the consensus of respectable thought, and especially if they express their heresies in public speech.
This has consequences.
Deavers explains:
The trouble with the Overton Window as a mechanism of political control, and with politicization of speech and thought in general, is that it causes significant collateral damage on the ability of your society to think clearly.
If some thoughts are unthinkable and unspeakable, and the truth happens in some case to fall outside of polite consensus, then your ruling elite and their society will run into situations they simply can’t handle….
An unwise political elite is one incapable of thinking clearly about their strategic situation, acting in concert, or sticking to a plan….
An insecure political elite is one which has either no sufficient mechanisms of political power short of the politicization of speech and thought, or is faced by such powerful but somehow never decisively powerful enemies that they need to permanently escalate to a state of vigorous politicization of speech and thought. We can compare this state to “intellectual martial law” for its structural similarity to the physical-security equivalent.
We’re now living under that condition of “intellectual martial law.” The consequent degradation of thinking means that the polity can’t construct a coherent consensus about what is happening to it (or devise a plan for what to do about it). This is exactly the point where the Overton Window turns into an Overton Bubble, as described by Devers. The bubble comprises ideas that are assumed to be self-evident (though they actually aren’t) and notions that are potentially destructive of society, even suicidally so.
Here is a partial list of the current dogmas and shibboleths inside today’s Overton Bubble:
Russia hacked the election of 2016 (no evidence required).
Russia (Vladimir Putin in particular) is bent on destroying the USA.
All immigrants, legal or illegal, have equal status before the law.
National borders are inconvenient, cruel, and obsolete.
Western Civilization is a malign force in human history.
Islam is “the religion of peace,” no matter how many massacres of “infidels” are carried out in its name.
Men are a negative force in society.
White men are especially negative.
Brownie points given for behaviors under the rubric LBGTQ.
All discussion about race problems and conflicts is necessarily racist.
The hijab (head covering worn in public by some Muslim women) is a device of liberation for women.
There should be a law against using the wrong personal pronoun for people who consider themselves neither men nor women (recently passed by the Canadian parliament).
A unifying common culture is unnecessary in national life (anything goes).
Colonizing Mars is a great solution to problems on Earth.
That list defines the general preoccupations of the thinking classes today - to the exclusion of other issues.
Here is an alternative list of matters they are not generally concerned about or interested in:
The energy quandary at the heart of our economic malaise.
The enormous debt racked up to run society in the absence of affordable energy inputs.
The dangerous interventions and manipulation in markets by unelected officials of the Federal Reserve.
The extraordinary dysfunction of manipulated financial markets.
The fragility of a banking system based on accounting fraud.
The dysfunction and fragility of the American suburban living arrangement.
The consequences of a catastrophic breakdown in the economy due to the above.
The destruction of planetary ecology, threatening the continuation of the human race, and potentially all life.
Now, the question of motive. Why does the thinking class in America embrace ideas that are not necessarily, and surely not self-evidently, truthful, and even self-destructive? Because this class is dangerously insecure and perversely needs to insist on being right about its guiding dogmas and shibboleths at all costs. That is why so much of the behavior emanating from the thinking class amounts to virtue signaling — we are the good people on the side of what’s right, really we are! Of course, virtue signaling is just the new term for self-righteousness. There is also the issue of careerism. So many individuals are making a living at trafficking in, supporting, or executing policy based on these dogmas and shibboleths that they don’t dare depart from the Overton Bubble of permissible, received thought lest they sacrifice their status and incomes.
The thinking classes are also the leaders and foot-soldiers in American institutions. When they are unable or unwilling to think clearly, then you get a breakdown of authority, which leads to a breakdown of legitimacy. That’s exactly where we’re at today in our national politics — our ability to manage the polity.

You Cannot Reason With Idiots
The Russia psyop is not about TRUTH, it is about a FAKE Narrative to try to save as much of the Globalist/Cultural Marxist Agenda as possible by defaming Donald Trump and Family. Come on! Even Van Jones, CNN Psyop Agent, and a Globalist Antonio Gramsci/Saul Alinsky Marxist said: "THE RUSSIA STORY IS A NOTHING BURGER."
I wonder how many times this conversation has been repeated in social media, and face to face in America over the last several months. But remember the FAKE NEWS has LOST. They are making a lot of noise, fooling only fools and idiots, but they have lost. (If you want to know how badly they are losing click HERE)
Jason D. Chastain
Another episode of CONVERSATION WITH A LEFTY:
LEFTY: Did you see the smoking gun on Eric Trump?
ME: The Russia nothing burger you guys keep pressing is a joke. Your own people know it, too. Move on.
LEFTY: What, the security of our nation means nothing to you?
ME: Oh, you mean like when Hillary sold 20% of our Uranium to Russia in exchange for Millions in donations to her Clinton Crime Family Foundation?
LEFTY: That was normal state Dept business.
ME: Or when she emailed top secret info over an unsecured server she deliberately hid in a bathroom? Smashed her phones with a hammer? Those are real felonies, not imagined. Why aren’t you calling for her arrest?
LEFTY: Those are FOX News lies.
ME: Uh. No, they are facts which were testified to under oath by Comey in a Congressional hearing.
LEFTY: That she is not in jail is proof she did nothing wrong. But Trump needs to be impeached for collusion.
ME: What would the Russians gain from Trump ramping up our economy and military strength? Hillary is the one who sold us down a river for cash. Selling influence for money, that’s Racketeering; another felony she should be in prison for.
LEFTY: We haven’t uncovered all of Trump’s crimes yet, that’s why we must continue to investigate.
ME: You have 11 months of no evidence of any crimes. It’s nothing but a manufactured leftist smear campaign to cover up the absolute vacuum your party suffers in ideas, platform, and leadership. Your party is out of gas and coasting on the fumes of propaganda. That’s all you have.
LEFTY: You conservative A-holes are destroying the world….. (flees to safe space.)
Christopher A Wray - FBI Nominee
THINK! In a nation of laws and not of men, which is the way our legal system was designed to work and has not worked because people like James Comey became the servants of men, politically powerful men and women, and not the servant of the Law, the Constitution, and the American People. Comey, in fact, right along with Hillary Clinton, Obama, the Psyops Press/Media became an enemy of the American people.
Despite the caterwauling from people who are offended that Trump's FBI nominee said that as FBI Director he would be the servant of the Law and the American People and not the servant of the President, or any political structure, his statement is correct. Would that he keeps his word and enforces the law without regard to persons, personalities, or political power structures; enforces the law "straight" as he promised and according to the Constitution. Were that to happen, it would be a huge blessing for this country.
We have lost that foundational goal of American Jurisprudence, destroyed by politicizing law enforcement, turning my opening sentence on its head and making law enforcement NOT about LAW, but all about people, creating one set of laws for people like you and me, and another set of laws for people like Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton and a host of other Globalist and Cultural Marxists.
You say you want to see the Republic Restored, then you trash a man who promises to honor "rule of law" over "cronies."
I don't know Wray, he could be one more Trojan horse, just another Neo-Con hiding behind CONSTITUTIONAL rhetoric. Whether he is for real or a Fake, you can't trash him for stating Constitutional Principles. What is his record? That is the ONLY thing that matters; who has he till now proved to be?
Are you smart enough to realize that the Mayor of a town is not the Commander and Chief of his Police Department's Police Chief, even though that police chief works for the CITY at the pleasure of the Mayor or Mayor and City Council? That police chief's first responsibility is to THE LAW. And were it proper, he should be willing to charge even the Mayor with a felony, were FACTS to warrant it.
The same relationship applies to the head of the state police and the governor. Only the County Sherrif has more power than that, answering only to the people and the governor of his state (in most instances.)
Just as the city mayor is not the Commander and Chief of the Police Chief, even though the Chief serves at the Mayor's pleasure, the President is not the Commander and Chief of the FBI Director, even though he served at the pleasure of the president. The FBI Director's FIRST responsibility, ONLY responsibility is to THE LAW. I keep hearing this term, "The FBI Director works for the President." NO, HE DOES NOT. Comey worked for his political cronies, that is glaringly obvious. Let us hope this director works for the American People enforcing in a fair way, the RULE OF LAW. Why? Because we are supposed to be a nation of laws and not of men.

Killing Fake Stream Media Psyops: USE COMMON SENSE.
Sometimes I swear I think Trump reads my posts - (not literally) well, some language I wrote on my blog made it into two of his speeches but that is another story during the campaign. Four days ago I wrote this and yesterday Trump Tweeted the following.
Butch Robinson
July 8 at 1:36pm ·
Notes toward SANITY:
(1) Do not believe any story that is "anonymously sourced."
(2) Do not believe any story claiming to be from "high-ranking" sources who spoke, "off the record" or any other source "off the record." This is the same "anonymously sourced."
(3) Pay attention to the News Outlet, or Website that fed you FAKE News. REMEMBER THE NAME, CNN, FOX, podunk website, blog, etc.
(4) Don't believe anything again from any site that has published fake news, unless you can verify that information from a trusted source.
(5) If the story is "obscure" like Nancy Pelosi's fake daughters being arrested, (a) check and see if the story is "SOURCED" - (b) see what local law enforcement made the arrest, (c) Verify such event happened from local sources (3) or if it was supposedly the Feds, FBI, DEA, ATF, etc., etc., note the location and check for LOCAL news confirmation.
This is just common sense folks and it is indeed sad that some have to be taught common sense. You don't have to remain nieve and easily misled and you don't have to be a genius to VET the stories you read.
