2017 Foreign Aid Libya 78 million, Mexico 289 million, Sudan 193 million, South Africa 500 million, Iran 477 thousand, Venezuela 14 million, Haiti 306 million and the list goes on and on. I would bet that hardly anyone knows what this money is spent on. What is it we get for this aid?
nose is, of course, to get these countries to do our will. I remember years ago the ambassador to Romania wrote a book called (I think) Pinstripes and Reds. The U.S. was giving aid on condition the government would stop religious persecution. But they continued bulldozing churches, persecuting Christians, in short, they got the money anyway.

That’s why the Benghazi thing went down the way it did. The buck doesn’t stop until someone dies and then maybe not even then.

Western culture produced western thinking. When I say west, I mean the United States. Europe long ago abandoned much of the foundation that undergirds our western culture and the United States is being pushed over that same cliff.

Western movies and television shows expressed best what our culture was about. There were good guys (white hats) and bad guys (black hats). There was a right and a wrong. Gary North, an American historian spelled it out and I paraphrase, “it was cowardice vs. honor, the defense of private property, law enforcement, and the moral limits of vengeance. It was the combination of individualistic yet bourgeois-supportive”.

Our culture is supported by these four pillars mentioned. Westerns gave kids examples they needed to understand what’s morally sound. It was well known that some things ain’t right. If the majority of men are cowards, if private property is not defended by law, if law enforcement becomes corrupt, and if there are no limits on personal vengeance, then we risk losing our western culture. Liberty will be lost.

The sixties changed everything. A young president was assassinated, the war in Vietnam, the music and sexual revolution, and a new “great government-dependant society was born. We now sit at the door of a new culture iteration. We’ve had socialism light for years thanks to FDR and LBJ. Our children have been instructed in government-run schools which teach them that America is an evil country because it gives people freedom. Freedom to think, say, believe anything they want. They are believers in idiotic ideas dreamed up by damaged minds, ideas that promise the moon with no way to get there.

I see the hatred expressed for anything from the past and I fear a fight may be coming. Hatred leads to violence. Don’t think the hatemongers aren’t above a bloody revolution. They say they won’t take no for an answer. I think they mean it. They have no option but violence. The members of the Democrat/leftist/LBGTQABC/Muslim hate crowd are young and of huge numbers. I’m hoping there are just enough of us who remember the creed of our culture; this ain’t right. I’ve had enough of what ain’t right. I’m hoping the majority of us aren’t cowards.

We know who they are. They’re Californians. Fruity people with nutty ideas. Not all of course but enough to make California a laughing stock in heaven. There’s no need to enumerate the stumbling blocks that make up their philosophy; we know they’re at the forefront of progressive lunacy. Their thinking is the source of their problems. Many are now leaving the state because screwed up ideas have consequences and that is a big problem for the states they move to.

They sell their homes for big money and buy in other states for a much less. The price of homes is driven up making it hard on the local citizens to live. That’s only the half of it. The California way of doing things is gradually forced upon the communities occupied. The fruity ideas are eventually forced upon the city/state they move to. Idaho is one such place where you used to move to get away from progressive tyranny. It was “safe” there, safe from the overreach of big brother.

Sadly, nothing remains the same. Arrogant people always know more about how you should live your life and are more than willing to pass laws to make you comply with their demands. This corruption of freedom is now epidemic in the United States. The filth emanating from our colleges and Hollywood effect us all and even has spread to the whole world.

In much the same way, California has allowed Hispanics to bring their wrong-headed culture into our country. Last year 120 people running for office in Mexico were assassinated. This is normal for them and by the rhetoric of the left, I believe it’s the direction we are heading. Mexico has a murder rate of 17 per 100,000, the U.S. has a rate of 5.3 (2016 figures). Granted that Mexico is fighting a war with the drug cartels but this should bolster the argument that we must carefully monitor who comes across our border. In short, we need a wall and it is California lunatic ideas that fight it. If their ideas prevail, the cartels will overrun our country too. Progressives are either stupid or consciously evil. Build a wall or destroy the nation.

Immigrants come to this country for a better life, a life their old country didn’t offer. As an aside, this proves that America is not a racist country. If it were, all those other races wouldn’t come here. It’s just the homegrown ethnic groups that have been given an ax to grind for a purely political purpose that feels America is racist.

We used to have immigrants work for us. They worked hard, were dependable, and came back year after year to work for us. One of them spoke fairly good English and of course, ended up being a foreman as he could communicate in the language of business. He tried for citizenship but became disenchanted with the process and difficulty of it all. So he moved back to Hermosillo. He started a business there and has done quite well.

Last year his sons moved to the United States. They became citizens, no small feat. They have excellent jobs and are a great asset to this country. They are just like their father, hard-working, honest, and knowing that learning English gave him a huge step up in life. His sons learned that too. They are doing well. They are Americans of the highest order. It’s good to have them here.

The following is a letter I sent to the Cato Institue “think” tank in their article of August 22 of last year why we don’t need a wall. It’s basically an in your face support for illegal immigration. So much time thinking is wasted if you don’t know how to think.

I ran across your article from August 22, 2018, on the murder of Mollie Tibbetts by an illegal alien. Your charge that her murder is was used to keep Manafort and Cohen off the front page is ridiculous. The relentless assault on President Trump is featured daily on the ABC channels. Turn on CNN or any of the rest of them and you will be presented with hatred for Donald Trump. Nothing deters these people (and you apparently) from vigilance in destroying our president.

My dad always used to say that figures never lie but liars always figure. Your insinuation that 4% of the murders in Texas don’t matter is an insult to those who have lost a loved one. What’s missing from your analysis is the obvious fact that people are streaming into the country by the thousands. Being that you either don’t know or don’t care what this does to our country, let me enlighten you.

1. Who supports these people? Who pays for their upkeep. Do they have shovel-ready jobs given to them? Most of them are poor, uneducated, and only qualify for low paying jobs. They move several families together in one house. This is making the United States degenerate into a second, then third world nation. We build schools to educate them, subsidize their living, and give them all the benefits of being an American but never expect them to assimilate. They arrive at our border with diseases and medical conditions that we must address and as a reward are told we are deplorable people because we don’t adequately take care of their needs. We deplorable people tire of self-righteous Americaphobes dismantling our values.

2. The left (and no doubt you too) are happy immigrants are bringing their culture to our country. The bulk of these people come from places where government corruption is rampant. Tyrants run their countries whether elected or not. This makes ready-made, left-leaning voters, eager followers of the politicians who redistribute wealth. The Democrats care not what kind of government we have just as long as they run it.

3. I skimmed through your article on incarceration rates and am appalled at your desire or lack of ability to see the elephant in the room. You continually concentrate on the mouse. Somehow we’re supposed to take comfort in the fact that there are only 800,000 or less illegal immigrants who are of a criminal nature. Incarceration rates are a bogeyman as every time you accuse a Hispanic of anything, you’re accused of being racist. A good share of the country has elevated the Hispanic community to an untouchable position. Sanctuary means sanctuary. This unwillingness to hold people of ethnic backgrounds accountable is well represented in the case of Nikolas Cruz. The police had been to his house thirty plus times and nobody could figure there was a problem. Like every other corruption of justice, it’s always reported that there’s nothing to see here.

I could go on and on but I know what the bottom line is. You hate Donald Trump. You don’t believe forcing yourself across the U.S. border is a crime or if it is it’s a victimless crime like jaywalking. You’re part of the Deep State, that cesspool in D.C. that benefit from the decline of American values and morals. You spend much time on figures; I only wish you’d spend less time using figures to demean our common sense.

Pandora’s box is now fully open and what is coming is at best frightful and at worst deadly for myself and my posterity.
