I have been holding my tongue for the past several weeks because either I am fed up with the most current events, I do not know what to say, and I just have been too busy to put my thoughts to the keyboard. But news “breaking” in the last forty-eight hours has really inspired me to type despite how busy and reluctant I am to type.
Specifically, the events that have broken the proverbial camels back and led me to put fingers to keyboard are the Generals and President Bush’s comments regarding their endorsements of Joe Bidden and against President Trump. First and foremost, everyone has a right to express their opinion and I have served in the military, having taken the oath several times, to defend this right. Based on this what this has told me is that we are seeing the establishment seriously rising to go against President Trump and to me the middle class average Everyday Joe so to speak.
First, when I read about retired General or Admirals speak out on civilian matters, I must take that with a grain of salt. Though I respect what they have accomplished I must keep perspective of the realm in which they have been successful. Specifically, they have been successful in a profession that is supported by the taxpayer. The military and its wars do not generate wealth and it is fundamentally a parasite on society. At best and at worst militaries steal wealth from others which is why we have militaries to defend against others from stealing our wealth. Hopefully, we do not become the type of country whose military steals from others, but I can say an argument can be made that our military and the complex built up to support it is stealing from society. Sometimes parasites can be beneficial or harmful and can swing either way. In the case of the military we must have a military to protect our country from foreign aggression which is am example of the military’s beneficial contribution to society. However, history is full of examples in which a country’s military becomes harmful and ultimately kills its host. Just look to Rome and the once mighty Spanish Empire. This happens when the generals become more powerful than the politicians. It is at this point that the parasite with kill its host.
Secondly, I look back to the history of Presidential administrations that these Generals came up in. To me these administrations arguably will go down in history as some of the worst administrations in terms of preserving individual liberties and outright corruption. I have no illusions that when a person moves into the flag officer level more and more of their abilities to be “political” play into their promotions. If one needs to me spell this out, except for one, they moved into and up the flag ranks in President Obama’s administration and or in President Bush’s administration. Both administration that oversaw the shipping of American might overseas and the further eroding of America’s middle class which gained substantial momentum under President Clinton and which Presidents Bush and Obama seemed more than happy to keep rolling.
What now upsets me more than anything is the extent to which it appears the powers to be, elites, international socialist, or whatever you might call them are willing to go to prevent President Trump from being reelected. It shows me to what lengths they are willing to go to prop up the international order, a order which I have written about in the past, that is the denizens of socialists and powerful elites who are really, in fact, the descendants of the aristocracy. An aristocracy they held themselves above the law or rather interpreted, subverted, and bent the laws, if they existed, to their own whims. I have no illusions that they care about me, my family, or my community.
Ok, some observation that I feel support my rational regarding President Trump are that first there was the Mueller waste of time to try and remove and smear President Trump. When that did not work there was the impeachment sham which we know did not work. Then there is this “global pandemic” which as time goes on is a complete and total joke to me. In my opinion President Trump did the prudent thing in the beginning to slow its spread until more information was obtained on the virus, its transmission, and potential control measures. However, that seemed to be relatively under control with numbers being now worse than a bad flu year and the economy starts opening up and suddenly the press gets ahold of what appears to be an abhorrent action committed by Minneapolis police. Actions that on the surface of it that should terrify any American regardless of race, ethnicity, religious or political belief. However, what is troubling me is how quickly and organized this spun out of control. The protests and subsequent riots were coordinated and planned in my opinion. Though I do not have the proof it is just too coincidental. Now we have businesses, Generals, ex-Presidents and all sorts and sundry characters blaming President Trump! Give me a f*&@ing break!!! Pardon my language but this is way to coincidental to be coincidental.
First off, most of the protests turned riots are happening in states and cities run by member of the Democratic Party. Minneapolis is a Democrat stronghold as is Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, New Orleans, Seattle, and Las Vegas to name a few. Many of these cities have black Americans in leadership positions. Why is this not being discussed? Is it because they are being good Uncle Toms and supporting their white masters in the international socialist party? Pardon my language again but I am angry. I have served with and for black Americans overseas and worked with them in my civilian job and quite honestly, I would rather have many of them as neighbors than many of the white Americans that I have worked with. I would and have trusted them with my life and would continue to do if called upon. Now that former Presidents and generals are now calling out the President on this I am more firmly in the camp that these protests turned riots are further evidence that the conspiracy of this duly elected President has taken a more sinister and deadly turn. A turn for which I am concerned this country may not be able to come back from.
So, in closing I ask Generals Kelly, Mattis, Powel and Presidents Bush and Obama what about me? What about the middle-class working man and woman? What about us? How do you feel about the fact that you made your entire careers working in a parasitical system that cannot survive without the working businessmen and women of this country? You attack President Trump, but I have never seen any action from any of you to support the average working American or small business. All I witness in you and your minions are machinations, subterfuges, and usurpations of American treasure in the name of “National Defense, the public good, and whatever other reason concocted to keep our minds occupied. News flash! While you moved up in a corrupt self-serving system the true wealth of this once mighty country has been bleed and continues to be bled. I am grateful that you have shown your true colors. If it had not been for President Trump the public would have never seen this. Now I just wonder how many more in the swamp are going to come out slithering and wiggling and gnashing? Now I cannot help but wonder just how close to the truth some of the Washington investigations are getting and how high up the chain the stench rises in both the Republican and Democratic Parties? Yes, it is a stench and it is becoming fouler by the day!!!
