“It is impossible to imagine the universe run by a wise, just and omnipotent God, but it is quite easy to imagine it run by a board of gods. If such a board actually exists it operates precisely like the board of a corporation that is losing money.”

“Our, the American People’s” media are in a target-rich news environment, as regards Congressional tactics to derail President-to-be Donald J. Trump’s agenda. One ’thwart Trump’ measure in our Congressional Senate is a Senate parliamentary rule known as a filibuster. Senate filibuster rule lets Senate legislators stand in oration indefinitely to stall or stop legislation. Filibusters don’t have to bathe.
“The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one’s time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all.”
~ H.L. Mencken
“We, the American People” have to figure Senate oratorical filibusters could stand in Senate debate well long enough to become nasally noticeable. However, when coercing one’s will on one’s fellow humans by force of law, personal hygiene will have to play second fiddle. Too much is at stake when burdened by other legislators, including chief executives, who would exert their will despite objection.
“Government is actually the worst failure of civilized man. There has never been a really good one, and even those that are most tolerable are arbitrary, cruel, grasping, and unintelligent.”
~ H.L. Mencken
Thirst For Lawful (Forceful) Power is never quenched. Post-Election 2024 fury over President-to-be Donald J. Trump’s ‘victory’ may have motivated anti-Trump forces to revisit their premises on how it is they did not lure enough voters to bring down former President Donald J. in his re-bid to take up residence at 1600 Pennsylvania avenue. They mean to send him and his kind packing soon’s they can.
“The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out for himself, without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, and intolerable.”
~ H.L. Mencken
Anti-Trump-Like Office Seekers may not have as easy a time as they are determined to have come future elections. Nor, may Vice-President JD Vance have a routine chore following Donald J. Trump. Could be perspectives have changed for “Us, the American People.” We just might be entering a time where legislators will find it not so easy confiscating property (wealth) and restricting choice (Liberty).
“The aim of public education is not to spread enlightenment at all, it is simply to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed and train a standardized citizenry, to put down dissent and originality.”
~ H.L. Mencken
People Determined To Live In Liberty do not allow legislators – or other public officials within These United States of America, to permit public (government-“State”) schools to delve into their children’s attitudes, values, or beliefs. They protect their children’s privacy and teach them to be thinking individuals.
“Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.”

Not Smart For “Us, the American People” to make political decisions emotionally. Not easy to make political decisions unemotionally. We might despise political office candidates, think they’re just not good. We might even be turned off by political office candidates’ appearance. We might forget we have power to elect them, turn them away, run them out of office if we find they don’t back Liberty.

“Our, the American People’s” media tell us a President-to-be Donald J. Trump detractor says some American states could break ties with America and join Canada. To avoid life with President-to-be Donald J. as President Donald J. Pro Trump residents in states in question could have a slightly different view. At very least, they just might consider devils they know less troublesome than those they don’t.
“When a legislature decides to steal some of our rights and plans to use police force to accomplish it, what’s the real difference between them and the thief? ”

A Related Media Article Features a democrat legislator who claims democrats are in political legislative power trouble because they did not, do not listen to ordinary Americans. “We, the American People,” arguably, demonstrated how we can become unfriendly – as in Election 2024 – when we are ignored or taken for granted. Election 2024 winners could easily stray and suffer similar election fates.
“The state spends much time and effort persuading the public that it is not really what it is and that the consequences of its action sare positive rather than negative.”

Another Related Media Article reports a former President-to-be Donald J. Trump first term Trump official is warning one and all Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is not a good choice, and lives will be lost if Robert F. is confirmed to head up Health and Human Services (HHS). Because, amongst other things, Robert F. is an anti-vaxxer. We can be vaccinated if we wish; Robert F. doesn’t have to like it. Doesn’t.
“Wherever politics intrudes upon economic life, political success is readily attained by saying what people like to hear rather than what is demonstrably true.”

People Expecting To Live In Liberty do not allow legislators – or other public officials within These United States of America, to cause any citizen to be drawn into an obligation to assume responsibility for public debt for reasons other than to defend These United States. They uphold self-government and their option to protect their property and financial security as they see fit.

GIVING THANKS TO GOD AND HONORING OUR FOREFATHERS The Pilgrims believed that religious liberty preceded civil liberty
11-27-2024 The National Monument of our Forefathers was dedicated in 1889. Upon this dedication, William C.P. Breckinridge stated, “ …in the name of the Fathers we dedicate this monument and ourselves. For ages it will stand the enduring witness to grave and resolute conduct; to privations and sacrifices; to thrift and frugality; to domestic love and unaffected piety; to rectitude in thought as well as in life; to earnest principles and true beliefs; to Christian fidelity and faith… here and now we rededicate ourselves to a more fervent love for man as man; to a braver allegiance to truth for truth’s sake, and this ‘in the name of God’ and Amen and Amen!” The monument came to be 269 years after the pilgrims arrived and now there has been another 135 years since that monument was dedicated. This nation has done a lot of growing, and we’ve been through many wars, including a civil war. Is there anything that we can point to that would be worthy of a monument such as the Faith Monument? https://400th.org/blog/americas-covenant-of-liberty-and-the-forefathers-monument In the last few years, we’ve witnessed the destruction and removal of many historical statues. In January 2023, New York erected a new statue supposedly representing women’s rights and honoring the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg for her stand on abortion. Abortion, in my opinion, has demeaned women and devalued life. The statue is satanic looking and puts our nation to shame. https://www2.cbn.com/news/us/ny-elevates-horned-statue-paying-homage-rbg-and-abortion-critics-say-it-looks-satanic There are many in our nation and high up within our government, who refuse our Christian heritage, and would like nothing more than to remove it, and us, completely. President Barack Hussein Obama made the comment that, “We are not a Christian nation, and we never were a Christian nation.” Is he completely ignorant of history or simply an anti-American and anti-Christian advocate? The Faith Monument is significant proof that our “beginning” as a nation was grounded in the Christian faith, and by some very exceptional people! If you remember, Obama did not believe in American Exceptionalism. The Pilgrims in 1620, landed on Plymouth Rock seeking religious freedom and planned to establish such in a new world, America. Eventually our Founding Fathers declared Independence from that “old world and the king,” and America became a New Nation – The United States of America.
There is a war going on now in America. It is a war between good and evil. Dr. Paul Jehle has observed: “The Pilgrims believed that religious liberty preceded civil liberty. The first was internal, the second external. Religious liberty gave rise to civil liberty in society.” Would it not be a logical conclusion that today we seem to have very little civil liberty in America because we no longer cling to our Religious Liberty? Visit 400th.org https://400th.org/blog/americas-covenant-of-liberty-and-the-forefathers-monument The 400th is a project of The Leyden Preservation Group, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Teach the history of this great nation’s beginnings. Teach about those who were most definitely the exemplification of American Exceptionalism to your children and grandchildren. While not perfect people, the Pilgrims are the true founders and heroes of America! American Exceptionalism! It is real! Dr. Charles Wolfe stated, The Pilgrims were the very embodiment of “American exceptionalism” – their lives demonstrated an exceptionally clear understanding of and deep commitment to the principles of liberty with order, tangibly expressed in spiritual, religious, political, and economic self-government under a written constitution: a prototype of “one nation under God, with liberty and justice for all.” Dr. Charles Wolfe was a founder of the Plymouth Rock Foundation and an executive committee leader for the Plymouth 350th anniversary celebration. Salt and Light “Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 5:13-16 KJV The Pilgrims and our Founding Fathers believed this nation should be the salt of the earth. Without Faith in our God, we have lost our savor. Without America’s shining light unto the world, the world is in chaos. “Thus out of small beginnings greater things have been produced by His hand that made all things of nothing, and gives being to all things that are; and, as one small candle may light a thousand, so the light here kindled hath shone unto many, yea in some sort to our whole nation; let the glorious name of Jehovah have all the praise!” ~William Bradford, Of Plymouth Plantation “Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.” Matthew 5:14 KJV The war between good and evil is evident in the heinous crimes we have witnessed in the past years and presently. College students protesting and calling for the annihilation of the Jewish sect of people, is proof of evil in a nation once founded in Christianity. The LEFT ridicule colonialism yet they colonialize their own hate and violence. Once attributed to Alexis de Tocqueville, “America is great because America is good. And if she ever ceases to be good, she will cease to be great.” All that is good comes from God! Without God, America is not good and will not be great. We cannot make America great again until we first Make America Godly Again and Bring America Home to our foundation which landed on Plymouth Rock by the great providence of our God! Upon the dedication of the Faith Monument, those Americans rededicated their lives. If we Americans today would rededicate our lives to God, perhaps our next monument will honor “America’s Returning.” Happy Thanksgiving!

“Democracy is also a form of worship. It is the worship of Jackals by Jackasses.”
~ H.L. Mencken
Under No Circumstance, for any reason, ought “We, the American People” let government tamper with who we are, or, by force of law, undercut attitudes, values, and beliefs we cherish. We do precisely so. Legislators make their personal attitudes, values, and beliefs (PAVB) lawfully compulsory with selective, arbitrary, and discriminatory legislation, taxation, and regulation (SADLT&R). Tyrannous.
“It is the fundamental theory of all the more recent American law…that the average citizen is half-witted, and hence not to be trusted to either his own devices or his own thoughts.”
~ H.L. Mencken
Those Of “Us, the American People” who are convinced President-to-be Donald J. Trump – or anyone seeking any legislative office lawful authority – will deliver us from oppression are naively illusionary. Nor, would we be thinking straight to believe America’s commonwealth, federal (U.S./National), and state Constitutions will protect us from oppression, solely or collectively. Not for a PAVB second.
“The argument that capital punishment degrades the state is moonshine, for if that were true then it would degrade the state to send men to war… The state, in truth, is degraded in its very nature: a few butcheries cannot do it any further damage.”
~ H.L. Mencken
“Our, the American People’s” Constitutions are nothing more than expressions of ideas. No precept or protection articulated in any American Constitution carries any weight when legislator or magistrate interprets Constitutionality by magistrate or legislator PAVB-driven SADLT&R. No Constitution has or can shoulder a weapon in its defense. Constitutions have no strength but sovereign citizenry action.
“The most common of all follies is to believe passionately in the palpably not true. It is the chief occupation of mankind.”
~ H.L. Mencken
Election 2024 Losers, Media-related articles accurate, and loser supporters, are busy preparing to regain lawful power over their fellow Americans – and anyone else they can – come Elections 2026 and 2028. Elections have no more to do with America’s security and prosperity than do America’s Constitutions. America’s security and prosperity lie with America’s sovereign citizenry’s commitment.
“A professional politician is a professionally dishonorable man. In order to get anywhere near high office he has to make so many compromises and submit to so many humiliations that he becomes indistinguishable from a streetwalker.”
~ H.L. Mencken
People Determined To Live In Liberty do not allow legislators – or other public officials within These United States of America, to cause any citizen to be drawn into an obligation to assume responsibility for public debt for reasons other than to defend these United States. They require elected leaders to defend America’s liberty unequivocally.
