Anger Without Sin

Anger without Sin

 

Look around at current events through the lens of “Godly Eyes” and what do you see? The world has seemingly gone amok!

 

The killing of the innocent is lauded as a woman’s right to choose. Sorry but that is not a guarantee under the Constitution or the laws of God. There is no such thing as anyone’s right to murder another. Murder is illegal and God calls it for what it is Sin.

 

Our nation has preached tolerance for so long that tolerance is no longer tolerated. How’s that for you oxy-morons? We are told to tolerate the intolerable, accept the unacceptable. Failure to lower our own personal standards places us in the same category as the scum of the earth.

 

Let me clue you in on something, we are born into a fallen sinful world which makes everyone the scum of the earth. There is not one thing that we can do to lift ourselves out of this scum; Nothing.

 

We are told by the Word of God (Jesus) to trust in God with all of our heart, mind and soul. Our body is not our own, it is the temple of the living God. We are to search everything as to whether it matches up with what God calls good. We are to run away from evil.

 

To the Christian believer sin is sin and not to be tolerated or partaken of. We are no longer of this world, but have been set free from the bondage of sin by the Blood of Jesus. It is not what we deserve for the wages of sin is death. God is the Creator of all and the giver of life to every living creature, animals, birds, fish and plants and all mankind. There can be no life without God and spiritual death is separation from God for eternity.

 

The choice is ours to make. Continue in our life of sin or ask God to forgive us? Choosing God leads to life any other choice leads to a spiritual death with separation from God eternally.

 

I’m not some holier-than-thou or a more-perfect human being. I’m simply one who gets caught up in the daily onslaught of human interaction and while using the faculties and emotions created in my by God tend to lose sight of the “end game” at times.

 

I am less tolerant of the stupidity of mankind and become impatient when it comes to anyone forcefully trying to peddle sin as truth, justice and the American way. It just doesn’t wash with me.

 

Our nation was founded on the Christian principles of the Bible. Our Constitution is the law of the land and based on the premise that the laws of God are surpreme.

 

When we as a people turn our backs on Almighty God who created us, we are simply thumbing our noses up at God declaring him irrelevant and that is dangerously ignorant on our part for it is God alone who can save us.

 

What we see today are people looking to governments or men for salvation. They will reap what they sow. Government is the compromise of men and women who bicker amongst themselves about how to do what is “best” for their people. God is the only answer. Until God becomes the center of human life and existence all paths lead to certain destruction.

 

Only God can rise up a leader who allows the voice of the Almighty to direct his paths and bring his people out of the wilderness. As he has done in “biblical” days of old, God searches the heart of a man requiring only availability. Often it is the most unlikely or undesirable whom God chooses and it is my firm belief that President Donald J. Trump is that man. The accomplishments we see are more than coincidence or charisma they are acts by God to show his love to us. So long as a man walks in obedient faith, God promises to prepare the way and walk beside him. The impossible become possible when God is the center of it all. We are told that God’s ways are not man’s ways and we cannot fathom or understand the reasoning of God’s plan. To the unsaved mind it seems like folly while to the believer nothing is impossible with God.

 

Our nation and the world are at a historical crossroad. Nations crumble while corrupt leaders prosper. The poor become poorer while the rich become richer and life is not fair. Yet God brings the rain on the rich and the poor alike.

 

The idea of political correctness is a curse to weaken and bring down the will of a people. It pits man against man, family against family and people against people until there is nothing left but hatred and anger. That is why we are told to be angry but sin not.

 

Here are three bible verses which instruct us to be angry but sin not.

 

Psalm 97:10: “Let those who love the Lord hate evil, for he guards the lives of his faithful ones and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.”

Proverbs 8:13: “To fear the Lord is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech.”

Amos 5:15: “Hate evil, love good; maintain justice in the courts. Perhaps the Lord God Almighty will have mercy on the remnant of Joseph.”

 

Mark 3:5 – When Jesus looked around at the arrogance of man he became angry and spoke to the man to stretch out his hand and Jesus healed him. Jesus directed his anger at sin, not at the people whom he would soon die to deliver from their sin.

 

We strive to be like Jesus. We are to hate sin, not people. Sin cannot be legislated to become acceptable when God has declared it as sin. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Federal Bureau of Anti-Matter

Federal Bureau of Anti-Matter

 

What a coincidence. Federal agents are screened for their honesty, trustworthiness and professionalism among other things. In law enforcement they are the cream of the crop, top of the line and trained to perfection in matters of criminal justice and the US rule of law. I’ve heard from experienced law enforcement professionals it is unadvisable to speak to them without legal counsel present – even during a routine traffic stop.

 

Have you ever gotten a traffic ticket? Do you attempt to pass the time of day with the officer? Ever confess to a minor offense in which you got off? As you prepare to depart the scene does the officer immediately leave at the same time? If not, have you ever wondered why not?

 

It’s important to remember this tip. The officer has an obligation to transcribe the entire conversation on paper in the event he must go to court over your offense. That sounds simple enough huh? What happens if you admit to previous wrong doing? What about an officer investigating a case that sounds similar to the event you admitted to? An officer is investigating and your name just happened to come up, because you told someone (the traffic officer) and now you’re a prime suspect.

 

Let’s say you end up going to court about the case you admitted committing. You are asked if you have any knowledge of that event and you say no or you don’t remember. The officer is called to the stand and asked if you ever mentioned it to him and he pulls out his notebook as he says yes. Then he reads your “confession” and you are charged with lying under oath “Perjury”.

 

That is why you should exercise your right to remain silent, especially at a traffic stop.

 

That’s why I said what a coincidence. Here we are and not one, but at least two high level FBI employees (former FBI director Comey; Assistant director McCabe; Special Agent Strzok and FBI Legal Counsel Lisa Paige have been called before congressional committees and under oath have answered many questions presented to them with, “I don’t remember”; “I don’t know”; or “I plead the fifth Amendment”. Even text messages and emails conveniently disappeared (although even a 15 year old hacker knows that text messages and emails are backed up daily or sometimes hourly on internet servers and kept for an extended period of time). One would think that FBI supervisors and agents would have clued in on that fact while conducting official investigations?

 

They are unable to recall specific events, dates, places or people they have interacted with over a certain period of time or pertaining to a specific incident when questioned by congressional committee members, under oath under penalty of perjury.

 

This is extremely interesting in that Comey AND McCabe each went on a “book tour” with various media outlets and described the events in detail which they couldn’t remember at the committee hearings. It would have been so considerate had they each presented the committee with copies of their soon to be released book prior to the hearings. Then questions could be referenced with page, paragraph and line number.

 

That’s why Special Counsel Robert Mueller himself a former FBI director made it a point to recommend prosecution of Trump associates who lied about unrelated matters under oath during HIS Special Investigation. Those “offenders” face substantial embarrassment, financial loss and/or jail time unless they “flip” on Donald Trump and admit incriminating evidence about Russian Collusion (which is still not a crime, even if it was true) – Which it is not.

 

It does appear that the Bureau, as it is called, has transitioned from the Federal Bureau of Investigation to its more proper title of Federal Bureau of Anti-Matter, because at the top the only thing that mattered was the smearing of and attempted removal of the sitting President of the United States, Donald Trump. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

The Shaming of America

The Shaming of America

 

This could also be called the “shamming” of America. We have become accustomed to having prominent Athletes, Entertainers and Politicians trash talk our nation, our leaders and elected officials and even ourselves. We are called names, placed into categories and expected to remain in our places while those who are superior treat us like trash. It’s not about race, ethnic or national origin of our ancestors. It’s about power and money.

 

In the Radical Muslim mindset those who are not Muslim are to be killed. Those who are Muslim but not radical are to be killed. Only the radical Muslims are to dominate and by force. We see this played out in the Middle East and in European nations where mass migration was encouraged through open borders. This is a clear pattern of what hell is like. It’s like being in a gang where everyone wants to be the leader and have no problem eliminating all competition. In the end the leader is the only one left. Wow, what joy! A leader without a following is not a leader at all.

 

We are guided by the Constitution of the United States and it is the basis for the Rule of Law. In fact our form of government is not a democracy and we are not just another republic. The United States is a Constitutional-Republic unlike any other in the world. Our citizens are of state and of the nation. We can travel freely within the country.

 

Our states are sovereign each with its own Constitution, government, rules and laws and yet joined together nationally under the national Constitution and government. That is primarily why phrases like United We Stand, One Nation, Under God, America First and Make America Great Again are meant to inspire patriotism, pride and confidence in our citizens and beckon others to come join us living the American Dream.

 

The national tone is set by the President of the United States and his administration sets out to implement his agenda and guide the nation. Elected officials represent the will of the people and set the stage for feast or famine. It is the responsibility for the government to provide for the safety of its people by the creation and enforcement of a series of laws.

 

Unless the people join together in the common cause of Freedom, working together for the betterment of the nation AND its people, there can be no freedom. Common sense tells us that NOTHING IS FREE!

 

Everything has a price.

 

It costs someone to make a pair of shoes. It costs someone to sell a pair of shoes. If you do not work for it, it has cost you nothing and it means to you NOTHING!

 

Only a parent can watch as their child struggles through life. They celebrate the ups and suffer through the downs as the child goes through trials and tribulations. It is natural for a parent to want to jump in and “help” the child or prevent the heartache the child will go through. It doesn’t help, but hurts the child who must develop their own decision making process and learn by their own mistakes. Parents must learn to step back and watch as their child falls down and gets back up making that a success.

 

 

It is not the responsibility of government to feed, clothe and provide free stuff that ensnare and enslave its people. Yet politicians want us to believe that work is not necessary because free housing, free food, free phones, free cars, free everything can be provided by the government and all you have to do is sell your vote to keep them in political office. How is that sustainable? How is that even possible?

 

In recent weeks we have seen former Obama administration officials surface on the world stage and denounce the United States and trash talk President Trump and his administration and his policies. Never before in my lifetime have I seen anything like this.

 

It is unheard of and unprecedented that Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry and now Joe Biden all former senators and elected or appointed officials have stood before international assemblies and reporters to denounce and ridicule the President and the administration that succeeded them into office. It is very unprofessional and the most anti-American, unpatriotic example of disloyalty imaginable. At the very least it is treasonous, seditious and very much politically based as each of these individuals are lifetime members of the Democratic Party.

 

The Constitution makes it very clear that Congress has the authority and responsibility to invoke the powers of impeachment against EACH OF THEM and once convicted they could be banned from holding any elected government office. It is also clear that the President could revoke their security clearances and recommend prosecution for their actions.

 

What is also clear is that in order for there to be a United States of America, there must be United American citizens who are committed to working for a better America and a country that is not divided through political correctness or petty political party politics.

 

There are many serious issues facing the nation and to date there have been no viable solutions brought to bear on solving them by politicians in Washington or by state or city officials in whose districts they are in. Serious problems require serious solutions. Solutions do not come from politicians, but from the American people. It is time to take back America! – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Where is Your Allegiance?

52011422_278701733044283_1124866645085388800_n

2-18-2019

Where is Your Allegiance?

 

Serious questions demand serious answers, “Where is your allegiance”; “For whom would you lay down your life”?

 

As a Christian my allegiance is to God who made everything and chose me to be his. It is God who said trust me and I will carry you the trials and tribulations of life. Yet it is I who say, “Yes Lord I trust in you”. The choice is mine. The bible tells us that death is not to be feared and to be absent from the body is to be present with God.

 

We often teach our children in Sunday school to recite a pledge to the Christian Flag so they understand where their allegiance is.

 

“I pledge allegiance to the Christian Flag and to the Savior for whose Kingdom it stands. One Savior, crucified, risen, and coming again with life and liberty to all who believe.”

 

In our schools we teach our children to recite the Pledge of Allegiance so they understand the concept of our nation and its relationship to Almighty God and to each other.

 

“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

 

We should not take any oath lightly because they are not just a pledge or promise to either a king or to God. An oath is a vow or specific promise or pledge to act or behave in a specific manner. When you can take an oath of office to promise to perform your duty to the best of your ability, taking that oath or vow requires that promise must be fulfilled. In order for someone to serve in the Armed Forces of the United States, that question is dealt with at Armed Forces Induction Centers across the nation when successful candidates for military service are sworn in and take the oath of enlistment.

 

Oath of Enlistment

 

I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.”

(Title 10, US Code; Act of 5 May 1960 replacing the wording first adopted in 1789, with amendment effective 5 October 1962)

 

While serving in the Armed Forces it is during the initial basic training that soldiers are taught to learn and abide by the Code of Conduct.

 

 

The Code of the U.S. Fighting Force

The Code of the U.S. Fighting Force is a code of conduct that is an ethics guide and a United States Department of Defense directive consisting of six articles to members of the United States Armed Forces, addressing how they should act in combat when they must evade capture, resist while a prisoner or escape from the enemy.

 

Articles of Code of Conduct

 

The Code of Conduct provides guidance for the behavior and actions of members of the Armed Forces of the United States. This guidance applies not only on the battlefield, but also in the event that the service member is captured and becomes a prisoner of war (POW). The Code is delineated in six articles.

 

Article I:

I am an American, fighting in the forces which guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense.

 

Article II:

I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender the members of my command while they still have the means to resist.

 

Article III:

If I am captured I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.

 

Article IV:

If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give no information or take part in any action which might be harmful to my comrades. If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those appointed over me and will back them up in every way.

 

Article V:

When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am required to give name, rank, service number and date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies or harmful to their cause.

 

Article VI:

I will never forget that I am an American, fighting for freedom, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

 

It is very important to learn this code of conduct in the event a soldier is taken as a prisoner of war by the enemy.

 

What we tend to overlook is what oath do new citizens take after passing their citizenship tests? Do they simply raise their right hand and say, “I do”? I don’t think so. Unless you have been there or have a loved one come from another country to the United States and complete the process of becoming a citizen you don’t really know?

 

New citizens must take a Naturalization Oath of Allegiance to the United States of America in order to complete the citizenship process.

 

 

Naturalization Oath of Allegiance to the United States of America

 

Oath

 

“I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God.”

 

Note: In certain circumstances there can be a modification or waiver of the Oath of Allegiance. Read Chapter 5 of A Guide to Naturalization for more information.

 

The principles embodied in the Oath are codified in Section 337(a) in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), which provides that all applicants shall take an oath that incorporates the substance of the following:

Support the Constitution;

Renounce and abjure absolutely and entirely all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which the applicant was before a subject or citizen;

Support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic;

Bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and

  1. Bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; or
    B. Perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; or
    C. Perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law.

 

The language of the current Oath is found in the Code of Federal Regulations Section 337.1 and is closely based upon the statutory elements in Section 337(a) of the INA.

As a Wilson, my allegiance is to love, protect and defend my family against all enemies and all threats.
 

What we see happening today are the carefully planned and orchestrated acts of civil unrest and disruption of racial harmony where the uninformed masses are made to react due to lack of common sense and their own ignorance of the Immigration Laws of the United States. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Proposed Federal Anti-Lynching Law

2-15-2019

 

Proposed Federal Anti-Lynching Law

 

Coming from California’s US Senator Kamala Harris is a proposed federal law that would make it a crime to lynch anyone for the first time in our 240+ year history. Sounds like a win – win situation for sure doesn’t it?

 

It’s not something I would think is beyond the grasp of the Congressional Black Caucus or members like Sen. Harris. Yet in its own sweet way it hammers yet another nail in the coffin of the Democratic Party platform or that of the CBC.

 

What you don’t see it? This proposed bill, if passed by the Senate and the House and then signed into law by President Trump would seal the deal. Yup for the past 2+ years what we see in the media and in the inner workings of Congress, as well as in various Department of Justice agencies has been the careful planning and execution of a systematic lynching of many good citizens.

 

Take the now infamous “Russia Collusion” hoax accusing Donald Trump’s campaign of colluding with Russian state actors to influence the 2016 election in his favor would be at best laughable, had it not been an overt attempt to tarnish now President Donald J. Trump and his good name.

 

Others who have been systematically lynched have been retired General Michael Flynn and even SCOTUS nominees, now Justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh. Oh there have been others in the Trump Campaign, the Trump Administration and even Trump family members and administration official’s family members.

 

I haven’t seen the content of the proposed Anti-Lynching Bill but I’ll bet before President Trump finishes putting pen and ink to make it into law, his legal team will have drawn up articles to sue various members of Congress, former-members of the DOJ and current employees who partook of spreading false allegations to the media.

 

Yes there must be a correlation between lawyers and criminals who are interdependent upon each other to use the law for their own shady purposes. Criminals think they know the law but have lawyers as their backup against the law. Lawyers study the law and twist the law in order to get their clients off and know how to play judges and the jury. Many legislators are lawyers who use the same techniques under the guise of compromise to create laws that can be easily skirted or ignored. Career legislators utilize manipulation, mob tactics of intimidation or threats to insure compliance of their agenda.

 

It’s been said that criminals are often not too bright, just enough to get themselves caught. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Five Hundred Thirty Five to One

53337695_167145327605713_1937217648509059072_n

2-15-2019

 

Five Hundred Thirty Five to One

 

There ought to be a movie about modern day Congress and President that highlights the epic saga of what amounts to a modern day coup d’etat orchestrated by the previous administration’s FBI senior staff and members of Congress.

 

What began as a politically financed stunt against a political opponent took on a life of its own at the expense of US taxpayers while tarnishing the reputation of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. This became a travesty of justice against a sitting President and a huge hoax on the American public. The scope of deceit is of a magnitude never before seen in the United States and is nothing short of the nationwide wholesale peddling of “snake oil” akin to the frontier days in the American Wild, Wild West.

 

The sayings that absolute power corrupts absolutely and a people who do not learn from history are bound to repeat it ring true once more.

 

The intent of the founding fathers as it pertains to elected congressional officials was to have citizen-legislators who would be elected to represent the citizen who voted for them. They would go to Washington and represent the will of the people. Upon expiration of their term, return home and resume their personal lives as private citizens having made America a better place for having served.

 

Instead Congress has become a career choice, reelection the priority with greed, power and financial gain a byproduct. America has not become a better place, but rather a cash cow to be milked dry. Members of Congress have often placed themselves above the law. The lawmakers have become the lawbreakers never to be held accountable.  Rather than submit legislators have betrayed that sacred trust and overridden the will of the people. Instead of changing US laws when flaws become apparent, legislators simply ignore them. Not willing to abide by the rule of law, it is ignored all together.

 

Modern day Congress sees itself in an adversarial relationship with the President and relies on the Supreme Court to act as a sort of playground monitor. They have forgotten the role of government is to govern.

 

Legislative Branch legislates;

 

Executive Branch enforces;

 

Judicial Branch rules based upon Constitutional mandates.

 

There is no room in governing for personal feuds, playground bickering or street justice. Elected officials are not superior to, but dependent upon citizens who expect their will to be carried out. The United States Government is responsible for the safety of and is responsible to its citizens. We have seen the audacity of a government who feel its citizens are not capable of self-governance. Provisions in the Constitution provide for the removal of an unresponsive government and the creation of a new one, when its citizens feel it is warranted.

 

We are at a critical point in the history of this nation where the driving force for change is Political Correctness that attempts to force into extinction the only Constitutional-Republic the world has ever seen. The corruption that has taken hold of many facets of our government threatens our very way of life. I am reminded of the story in the bible where it appeared the entire “Army of God” stood in fear of a giant named Goliath. As he stood taunting a young boy, David chose a single pebble, loaded his slingshot and felled the giant. David then used the giants own sword to cut off his head.

 

America has been under attack for quite some time and it appeared that as fearful as it was, nobody knew what to do about it. Christians across this nation fell to their knees in prayer asking God to have mercy on our nation and deliver us from evil. God heard our many prayers and he answered in a way nobody saw coming. They weren’t answered overnight but in the timing and choosing of God.

 

Today America has the giant of Political Correctness which threaten the very life of our nation. One must be careful what to do, say or even think for fear of being sued, threatened or imprisoned. Many of our legislators are furthering the PC cause by legislating it into the fabric of our nation in an attempt to effect changes of global proportions.

 

God has reached into his vast and unlimited resources to call forth a man of experience and determination and will to fight the battle and defeat the giant of Political Correctness. The man God has called knows well what it takes to win, because to him winning isn’t just everything, it’s the only thing.

 

When God called Donald Trump answered and given a mandate from God the battle for the very soul of America began and although the giant has not yet fallen, it has been defeated. Regardless of political persuasion or ethnicity the time is now for Christians to fall down on their knees to pray over America. Pray for our nation, our leaders and for our enemies. We pray for wisdom from God and the strength to become victorious so that God will set our nation free. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

The Only Constant in Life is Change

2-12-2019

 

The Only Constant in Life is Change

 

In the Old Testament of the Bible is the book of Ecclesiastes which places everything into a perspective that everything that is, has been before and will be again. The theme of this book is centered on a time for everything.

 

Ecclesiastes

 

1 There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:

2 a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot,

3 a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build,

4 a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance,

5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,

6 a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away,

7 a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak,

8 a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.

9 What do workers gain from their toil?

10 I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race.

11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.

12 I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live.

13 That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God.

14 I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that people will fear him.

15 Whatever is has already been, and what will be has been before; and God will call the past to account.

16 And I saw something else under the sun: In the place of judgment—wickedness was there, in the place of justice—wickedness was there.

17 I said to myself, “God will bring into judgment both the righteous and the wicked, for there will be a time for every activity, a time to judge every deed.”

18 I also said to myself, “As for humans, God tests them so that they may see that they are like the animals.

19 Surely the fate of human beings is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath; humans have no advantage over animals. Everything is meaningless.

20 All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all return.

21 Who knows if the human spirit rises upward and if the spirit of the animal goes down into the earth?”

22 So I saw that there is nothing better for a person than to enjoy their work, because that is their lot. For who can bring them to see what will happen after them?

 

In the 1960’s popular artists were turning out songs, like the Byrds rendition of “To Everything There is a Season” and even a poem by Ivy Schex with the same title.

Why is it such that man continually tries to reinvent the “wheel” (wheel is representative of what we call progress). We often say someone has invented a better mouse trap. When in reality scientific principles are repeated over and over in slightly different applications and are called cycles. That is why it’s important to study the history of mankind, take a look at its successes and study its failures in order to avoid the pitfalls of the past.

 

What we see happening before our very eyes are people so full of their own self-righteousness and wisdom that they are literally tripping over their own tongues. It’s as if they no know when to stop talking. It’s a mystery to most people unless you look at it from a biblical point of view.

 

Ephesians 4:18, “They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts.”

 

Our society would have us to believe that wrong is right and right is wrong and anyone who disagrees with them is mentally challenged. They would even call God into account though they have not the power to do so. They think more highly of themselves than they should.

 

They fail to realize that under God, All men are created equal, with the same ability to do great things, yet they chose to follow the leader under someone who possesses great oratory skills, much like the Anderson Fairy Tale of the Pied Piper. So great are their skills that people are mesmerized to the point of believing all that flows from those golden tongued devils.

 

Galatians 6:7, “Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.”

 

We see all around us the murders, the robberies, the violence perpetuated against others who don’t share the same belief or thinking. Today it is commonplace to take the life of the unborn from inside the mother’s womb, while demonstrating for a Woman’s Right to Choose and ignoring the Child’s Right to Birth. We applaud the ignorance of others and ignore the wisdom of Almighty God.

 

Have you thought about life ever after? Will it be a life patterned after the world we live in? Will it be a world without good, which is a world without God? I dare say that the events unfolding today are nothing in comparison to an eternity without God. An eternity without God is not life at all, it is a physical hell where good does not exist because without God there can be no good.

 

God’s will is not for anyone to be cast down into the pit of fire. It is by choice that man ends up there by rejecting the Love of God. Jesus came to pay a ransom for our sin because the wages of sin is death.

 

John 3:16, “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”

 

Salvation by any other name but Jesus is not salvation at all. There is no other name under Heaven or on Earth whereby man must be saved, except by the name of Jesus.

 

Don’t be swayed this way and that way but stay rooted in the Word of God and seek him with all of your heart, mind and soul. It’s been said that a man who stands for nothing will fall for anything.

 

What are you standing for? To be called a fool for Christ is an honor.

To just be called a fool is a revelation of who you are in the standings of the world.

 

So I say, “Whose fool are you?” – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Nothing Social about Democratic Socialism

Nothing Social about Democratic Socialism

 

The rise of platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and other online social networks have given new meaning to the term “Social” and thus new life to Socialism in America.

 

For years Communist and Socialist ideologies have led to the failed regimes around the world in places like Cambodia, China, Cuba, Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Laos, Myanmar (Burma), Russia, Venezuela and Vietnam. Pick any one and you see the same results, people without dignity, food, and hope of a better future.

 

There are very few documentaries from inside these societies to show the outside world what is really happening to everyday people stuck in a virtual vortex of despair and hopelessness. What we see are mostly state approved video snapshots showing happy, healthy and educated masses in an attempt by the authoritarian dictators to maintain power and control over their citizens.

 

In recent years American politics have produced home grown Democratic Socialists like Senator Bernie Sanders and more recently Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez the champion of the Green New Deal.

 

What exactly is Democratic Socialism in American Politics?

 

  1. Democratic Socialism is a political movement advocating a gradual and peaceful transition from capitalism to socialism by democratic means.
  2. A Democratic welfare state that incorporates both capitalist and socialist practices.

 

Since 1830 Socialism has acquired several different meanings. It refers to a system of social organization in which private property and the distribution of income are subject to social control, but the concept of that control has varied, and the term has been interpreted in widely diverging ways, ranging from statist to libertarian, from Marxist to liberal. In the modern era, “pure” socialism has been seen only rarely and usually briefly in a few Communist regimes. Far more common are systems of social democracy, now often referred to as democratic socialism, in which extensive state regulation, with limited state ownership, has been employed by democratically elected governments (as in Sweden and Denmark) in the belief that it produces a fair distribution of income without impairing economic growth.

 

Recent Examples on the Web

 

According to the left’s own sources, democratic socialism will cost $42.5 trillion in its first decade. — Brian Riedl, Vox, “America might be ready for democratic socialism. It’s not ready for the bill.,” 7 Aug. 2018

 

His support for democratic socialism, Medicare for all, and other progressive polices helped set the stage for a major shift within the Democratic Party. — Lucy Diavolo, Teen Vogue, “Bernie Sanders Believes the 2018 Midterms Are a Chance for Young Voters to “Transform America”,” 2 Nov. 2018

 

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/social%20democracy

 

The very idea of Democratic Socialism or any variation of Socialism or Communism runs against the very core of the American form of government. The United States of America was founded over 240 years ago as a Constitutional-Republic and is unlike any other government in the world.

 

The Rule of Law is based on the Constitution of the United States which was drafted by the Founding Fathers in accordance to biblical principles. The idea is a land where people are free to worship God, work hard and raise a family in safety while living the American Dream.

 

Today liberals equate socialism with social media. Where Facebook is a social networking platform where anything goes has been the norm until the recent political correctness craze, the train of thought equates to Facebook = Social Media therefore Socialism = Coolness. Let us run the country that way.

 

Look at the ridiculousness of some of the liberal lefts proposed social “policies” like a fart tax on farm animals; male urination into plastic containers that must be “cured” by the sun, then used as potable water for coffee, cooking and other uses. What’s next urine for brushing and rinsing to obtain fresh breath? The proposed ban on air travel would make it extremely hard for international travel unless we revert back to sailing vessels. What about guaranteed income for those unwilling to work? How would that work if all companies, corporations and private industry ceased to work? Turning unemployment offices into employment offices and stacking jobs for future use? Those are just a few bad ideas that have been expressed by the New Green Deal proposed by the liberal’s newest sensation Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

 

I don’t know about you, but I will not stand by and let this common senseless nonsense turn the country that I love into the United States of Nonsense. I will never forget the oath to defend the Constitution of the United States against ALL ENEMIES both foreign and domestic. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

A History of Political Parties in the United States

A History of Political Parties in the United States

 

In light of the political unrest that has surfaced during the 2016 Presidential Election and in the 2 years after I thought it pertinent to examine U. S. political parties and their history. Not trusting Wikipedia as a truly reliable source the next best would be the Encyclopaedia Britannica online at Britannica.com as a sort of an unbiased third party reference.

 

https://www.britannica.com/place/United-States/Political-parties

 

The United States has two major national political parties, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. Although the parties contest presidential elections every four years and have national party organizations, between elections they are often little more than loose alliances of state and local party organizations. Other parties have occasionally challenged the Democrats and Republicans.

 

Since the Republican Party’s rise to major party status in the 1850s, however, minor parties have had only limited electoral success, generally restricted either to influencing the platforms of the major parties or to siphoning off enough votes from a major party to deprive that party of victory in a presidential election.

 

In the 1912 election, for example, former Republican president Theodore Roosevelt challenged Republican President William Howard Taft, splitting the votes of Republicans and allowing Democrat Woodrow Wilson to win the presidency with only 42 percent of the vote, and the 2.7 percent of the vote won by Green Party nominee Ralph Nader in 2000 may have tipped the presidency toward Republican George W. Bush by attracting votes that otherwise would have been cast for Democrat Al Gore.

 

There are several reasons for the failure of minor parties and the resilience of America’s two-party system. In order to win a national election, a party must appeal to a broad base of voters and a wide spectrum of interests. The two major parties have tended to adopt centrist political programs, and sometimes there are only minor differences between them on major issues, especially those related to foreign affairs. Each party has both conservative and liberal wings, and on some issues (e.g., affirmative action) conservative Democrats have more in common with conservative Republicans than with liberal Democrats.

 

The country’s “winner-take-all” plurality system, in contrast to the proportional representation used in many other countries (whereby a party, for example, that won 5 percent of the vote would be entitled to roughly 5 percent of the seats in the legislature), has penalized minor parties by requiring them to win a plurality of the vote in individual districts in order to gain representation.

 

The Democratic and Republican Party candidates are automatically placed on the general election ballot, while minor parties often have to expend considerable resources collecting enough signatures from registered voters to secure a position on the ballot.

 

Finally, the cost of campaigns, particularly presidential campaigns, often discourages minor parties. Since the 1970s, presidential campaigns (primaries and caucuses, national conventions, and general elections) have been publicly funded through a tax checkoff system, whereby taxpayers can designate whether a portion of their federal taxes (in the early 21st century, $3 for an individual and $6 for a married couple) should be allocated to the presidential campaign fund.

 

Whereas the Democratic and Republican presidential candidates receive full federal financing (nearly $75 million in 2004) for the general election, a minor party is eligible for a portion of the federal funds only if its candidate surpassed 5 percent in the prior presidential election (all parties with at least 25 percent of the national vote in the prior presidential election are entitled to equal funds). A new party contesting the presidential election is entitled to federal funds after the election if it received at least 5 percent of the national vote.

 

Both the Democratic and Republican parties have undergone significant ideological transformations throughout their histories.

 

The modern Democratic Party traditionally supports organized labour, minorities, and progressive reforms. Nationally, it generally espouses a liberal political philosophy, supporting greater governmental intervention in the economy and less governmental regulation of the private lives of citizens. It also generally supports higher taxes (particularly on the wealthy) to finance social welfare benefits that provide assistance to the elderly, the poor, the unemployed, and children.

 

By contrast, the national Republican Party supports limited government regulation of the economy, lower taxes, and more conservative (traditional) social policies.

 

In 2009 the Tea Party movement, a conservative populist social and political movement, emerged and attracted mostly disaffected Republicans.

 

At the state level, political parties reflect the diversity of the population. Democrats in the Southern states are generally more conservative than Democrats in New England or the Pacific Coast states; likewise, Republicans in New England or the mid-Atlantic states also generally adopt more liberal positions than Republicans in the South or the mountain states of the West.

 

Large urban centres are more likely to support the Democratic Party, whereas rural areas, small cities, and suburban areas tend more often to vote Republican.

 

Some states have traditionally given majorities to one particular party. For example, because of the legacy of the Civil War and its aftermath, the Democratic Party dominated the 11 Southern states of the former Confederacy until the mid-20th century.

 

Since the 1960s, however, the South and the mountain states of the West have heavily favoured the Republican Party; in other areas, such as New England, the mid-Atlantic, and the Pacific Coast, support for the Democratic Party is strong. Compare, for example, the 1960 and 2000 presidential elections.

 

By the early 21st century, political pundits were routinely dividing the United States into red and blue states, whose assigned colours not only indicated which political party was locally dominant but also signified the supposed prevalence of a set of social and cultural values.

 

According to the received wisdom, the red states—generally located in the South, West, and Lower Midwest—were Republican, conservative, God-fearing, “pro-life” (on the issue of abortion), small-town and suburban, opposed to big government and same-sex marriage, and enamoured of NASCAR.

 

The blue states—found mostly on the coasts, in the Northeast, and in the Upper Midwest—were similarly reductively characterized as Democratic, liberal, secular, politically correct, “pro-choice” (on abortion), urban, and connoisseurs of wine, cheese, and latte.

 

Both the Democratic and Republican parties select their candidates for office through primary elections.

 

Traditionally, individuals worked their way up through the party organization, belonging to a neighbourhood party club, helping to raise funds, getting out the vote, watching the polls, and gradually rising to become a candidate for local, state, and—depending on chance, talent, political expediency, and a host of other factors—higher office. Because American elections are now more heavily candidate-centred rather than party-centred and are less susceptible to control by party bosses, wealthy candidates have often been able to circumvent the traditional party organization to win their party’s nomination.

 

James T. Harris

The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica

 

The Britannica article ends with William Jefferson Clinton in the 1992 Presidential elections. So the hotly contested 2000 election of George W. Bush pivoted on the hanging chads of the Florida election machines, but settled by the Electoral College votes that gave him the presidency.

 

The following election was an entirely new style of candidate when Senator Barack H. Obama came from behind and received the Democratic National Committee nomination over Senator Hillary D. R. Clinton in the 2008 election. Obama became the first African-American to occupy the White House in our nation’s history and he went on to win a second term in 2010 against Senator John McCain.

 

That brings us to the 2016 elections when yet an unlikely candidate Donald J. Trump entered the race with no political experience and came from behind to eclipse more than 16 GOP candidates and beat Democratic candidate Hillary D. R. Clinton to occupy the White House.

 

What made the 2016 election unique in many ways was the amount of mostly negative publicity that was sure to sink his political ambitions. The fact that Trump won the election after spending a mere several hundred thousand dollars to run his campaign, compared to the several hundred million spent by Hillary Clinton on her failed attempt at the White House.

 

Recent political events lead one to believe that there may be major changes in the way politics continues in the United States. The Democratic Party leadership and the mishmash of various midterm 2018 campaigns have brought a broad spectrum of candidates espousing a variety of ideologies and really looney tune style rhetoric.

 

The traditional Republican Party may also experience a vast awakening as many have lost faith in the current political system. Under President Trump’s America First agenda I would not be surprised to see something along the lines of a new Make American Great Again Party that champions the rights of all American citizens as proclaimed in the Constitution. A party that values hard work, fair trade and a reinvigorated judicial system reform as well as immigration reform.

 

Much has changed in America in just the past 2 years and patriotism is on the rise, as is racial division when people lose sight of the flag that unites All Americans. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Flip the Coin Over

2-7-2019

 

Flip the Coin Over

 

There have been a lot of comments about seeing things from the other point of view. So today I took a couple of hours first to watch President Trump’s 2nd Annual State of the Union in its entirety. It lasted almost a full 90 minutes.

 

I listened as President Trump gave a powerful address to a joint session of Congress and the American people. In true Trump style he didn’t mince words. He began by honoring a number of individuals who have suffered greatly for the sake of freedom; endured judicial injustices of a broken system being able to reenter as productive members of society; survived cancer and deal with the pain of great loss.

 

He recapped many of his successes; called failed policy decisions as he saw them; gave his solutions for success and announced that the State of the Union was Strong!

 

Throughout the speech he called on Congress to come to the table of compromise to find a workable solution to keep the government open, enhance border security for what he has termed a crisis on our southern border and fund a physical barrier or wall to restrain the hordes of illegal immigrants, dangerous drugs and prevent human trafficking.

 

That being said it was a great speech, one of the best I’ve witnessed by far. The response by seated Democrats in their white garb, likened to the white gowns and hoods of the KKK coupled with their body language and facial gestures made it plain their contempt for the President and his agenda. There were a few times when one or more Democrats would join in the applause after the President made it a point to call out the fact that more women are in business than in the past, and that more women are serving in the Congress than ever before. Yeah and they didn’t even notice that the President used an age old trick of flattery which they couldn’t resist.

 

I’ll admit there were also a few times when specific House and Senate members were called out by their recent rantings about giving Socialism a chance in America. Not going to happen under his watch. In fact the President’s statement about America will never be a socialist nation was clear and to the point.

 

Afterwards I hesitated but then I forwarded the recording to Democratic Party Responder Stacey Abrams of Georgia. I thought it was only fair since her speech was said to be about 10 minutes in length. I’ve see some of the memes of her and her crowd, then about her hard working family and her dad walking home in the rain with no coat after working overtime and being picked up in the family car. Without more details my first question was if he was working overtime why did he have to walk home when he had a fully functional car at home?

 

So yes I wanted to hear more from her and she provided important details about her working class parents, the life lessons they were taught as children. She even gave more details on why her dad was walking 30 miles home in the rain with no coat. He had given his coat to a homeless man he encountered along the way home. He said he knew that man would be alone, but that his family would be coming for him. He seemed to be a good man doing something for another without expectation of anything in return.

 

I’ll be honest I didn’t listen to her entire speech as it represented the response of the Democratic Party to the Presidents SOTU. I attempted to endure as she repeatedly blamed President Trump for shutting down the government and placing federal workers on furlough without pay, playing a political stunt. She continued stating that because of the President and the Republicans there were many companies closing and moving out of the country, placing thousands of Americans out of work. (Quite the contrary to what the President actually said in his address). Instead of offering actual points worthy of compromise to insure that America stayed open and workers stayed on the job, her entire point was to simply blame, blame, and blame Republicans.

 

Quite frankly I couldn’t sit and listen to her ramblings any longer. She is an educated woman, a lawyer and former Georgia State Legislator, who ran a failed campaign for Governor and even said she supported illegal immigrants to vote in elections. Typical of the Democratic Party, supporting Illegals over citizens and trying to hedge their bet as a political stunt that goes against the Constitution. So I shut her off in mid-sentence.

 

Usually there are two sides to every coin and at least two sides to every story. Except when it’s a Democrat Story, then there is only one side that matters and everyone else is a racist.

 

It has been two years since President Trump was inaugurated as the 45th President of the United States and the entire time he has reached out to Democrats and Republicans alike attempting to move this nation forward with an America First mentality. All I’ve seen so far is what amounts to a mental “Fart” from a majority of Congress.

 

Career lifetime politicians are worried they are going to have their power and prestige taken away by President Trump who has repeatedly campaigned on “Draining the Swamp”. Middle of the road politicians may see an opportunity to claim some of the power. Freshmen politicians of the 116th Congress are what we call “wet behind the ears” and don’t know or understand the inner workings of Congress. Several have stepped up their game in an attempt to display their mental prowess or their superior knowledge. For them might I suggest that you go back into your law school days of not too long ago and look up the Miranda Warning? What does it say vs what does it mean and when to apply it in the Congressional setting.

 

This last part is for American voters. We have a real situation in Congress. There has been a resurgence of legislators who are pushing socialistic and communistic ideologies, favor the radical Islamic Sharia Law over the Rule of Law backed by the Constitution of the United States. They are not compatible. The Constitution is based on Biblical theology and Islam is based on a manmade religion of domination. It is highly likely and verified that a minimum of 100 legislators out of 535 have been influenced, are working with or are currently agents of Socialism and Communism inside the  116th Congress.

 

If American citizens have not learned the lessons of U. S. and World history; have not studied the Constitution to ensure a clear understanding of the Bill of Rights and the Amendments that guarantee those rights. And if American citizens continue sticking their heads in the proverbial sand, there will come a time within the next 6 years where many of those rights will be terminated for lack of interest. Should that happen there will be no getting them back?

 

Voting is a right of American citizenship, as is public service at local, state or federal level. It has been said that if you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything. The Constitution guarantees certain rights for all citizens of the United States. Everyone else is here as a guest or as an illegal alien and there are no guaranteed rights for them. They have the right and responsibility of obeying all U. S. law, facing jail time or deportation. Anyone who enables, encourages or facilitates another person to commit a crime in the USA is also a lawbreaker and subject to being prosecuted as such.

 

There are many who serve in the U. S. military, the ready reserve or state National Guard or are continually on standby to defend the Constitution of the United States against ALL ENEMIES, both foreign and domestic. The oath we took has no expiration.

 

We are patriots who love our nation, its anthem and the Flag of the United States of America and Almighty God who created us all. We are in a real world war on terrorism and against evil.

 

I love this quote, “It’s a very imperfect world, and you can’t always choose your friends. That’s life. But you can never fail to recognize your enemies.” – President Donald J. Trump

 

To paraphrase former President George W. Bush “You are either with us or against us”! – I am the Real Truckmaster!
