Triad Conservative

By God, We'll Have Our Home Again

I learned about this tune from NC Renegade. It really seems to capture the spirit of the age; but I also hope it reflects a determination to restore what used to be a great country: 

"Minds Full of Mush"

How is it that they could have thought otherwise? Maybe-- just maybe-- they are misinformed.

Who Is Ultimately Pulling Biden's Puppet Strings?

A couple of weeks ago, I republished here a sweeping article by Patrick Byrne that interprets the events of the last year as a massive "psyop" that progressed through four distinct stages. I had already commented also on a Time article by Molly Ball that openly describes the conspiracy in connection with the 2020 presidential election.

Many have also described the fact that Joe Biden is not his own man. Many feel that someone else is pulling the puppet strings behind the scenes. But who is the "man behind the curtain"? Obama? Xi? Or is it some other group or set of forces, instead of a single person? For instance, the globalists or the "deep state"?

Readers will recall that Obama used Eric Holder as his alter ego, and also as the enforcer of everything he was trying to do and achieve-- legally and politically. Biden's selection for Attorney General is Merrick Garland. We were given a preview of what to expect during his confirmation hearing. A neat synopsis was posted elsewhere: 

● Garland: Portland Riots May Not Be ‘Domestic Terrorism’ Because Courthouse Was Closed

● Garland Vows to Prioritize Prosecuting Capitol Rioters and Their ‘Abettors’

● Garland Won’t Promise to Protect Durham Investigation

● Garland Says DOJ Would Advance Biden’s Anti-Gun Policies

• Garland refuses to state illegally crossing the border is a crime

● Garland Sidesteps Question on Trans Participation in Women’s Sports

We’re particularly concerned with this remark Garland made in his opening comments during Monday’s Senate hearing:

“If confirmed, I will supervise the prosecution of white supremacists and others who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6 – a heinous attack that sought to disrupt a cornerstone of our democracy: the peaceful transfer of power to a newly elected government.”

Lock all of that in your brain for a few moments.

And remain mindful that many of Biden's most significant executive actions led to a significant loosening of checks on illegal immigration; and also measures designed to increase the flow of immigrants-- both legal and illegal-- and also refugees.

Richard McCulloch over at the Occidental Observer proposes that Joe Biden was a Manchurian Candidate. That is, he was a candidate advanced by another party or nation to achieve its objectives. McCulloch comments on the fact that the Mike Lindell video exposed the actions of China interfering with the election and explains: 

(E)verything now happening is ultimately about race, centered on race and driven by racial group interests. He totally misses the role of race and racial interests in the power struggle that underlies the increasing intolerance, division and polarization in the country, all part of the process of racial transformation as the founding White population loses power to, and is increasingly replaced by, the diverse non-Whites who are unified against them in this purpose. All the old verities and norms created and sustained by Whites do not matter to them, except as reminders of a history and people they see as hateful and an obstacle to their goals...

Clearly we live in conspiratorial times, where there seem to be more conspiracies afoot then we can keep track of, but all of them are part of the much larger central conspiracy, which is all against our race.

Which brings us to the matter of the ignored elephant in the room. Where were the Jews in all this? Of course they were at the center of it all...

But the Chinese couldn’t get away with something on this scale unless the Jews were on board with them, protecting their back and providing cover from the media, academia, politicians, Wall Street, etc. as only they can. Nothing like this can succeed unless the Jews are part of it, or at least agree to cover for it, and for that it has to further Jewish interests and be “good for the Jews”...

Let’s hope (Mike Lindell's) video flies far and wide. As previously noted, it already had three million views when I watched it. If Lindell is willing to make the commitment, it could go a good distance. Its story that our domestic racial enemies have now formed something of an alliance of common interests with our most powerful foreign adversary, if essentially correct, is certainly a very important one, and would greatly discredit the establishment and red-pill a lot of normies, which can only help us. Also, it should inform us that although our primary enemies are unfortunately already within the gate and the odds of us overcoming them often seem overwhelming, the enemy outside the gate also commands our attention, and our deliberations should consider how to resolve our domestic racial problem in such a way that we will still emerge strong enough to confront foreign foes on favorable terms.

A year ago, I had posted here about Kevin MacDonald's premise, in the midst of the first impeachment effort, that the movement against Donald Trump has been primarily driven by the progressive-socialist Jewish community in the United States. Their chief grievance against Trump was his stance on immigration. They had been instrumental moving the 1965 law that opened the United States to massive levels of immigration from non-Western countries. They have used immigration as a key vehicle for advancing their own group interests.

MacDonald cited numerous specific examples.

Since then, we have seen a second attempt at impeachment and removal from office. Who was the chief impeachment manager from the House? Jamie Raskin, who is Jewish. By the way, his wife had been a member of the Federal Reserve, and is now slated to be a key player in Biden's Treasury Department. Notably, it has been reported that she was behind the unmasking of General Michael Flynn.

It's interesting how everything ties together.

Of course, Merrick Garland is also Jewish. That provides context when considering many of his statements during the confirmation hearing. 

The American progressive/socialist Jewish community provides half the funding for the American Democratic Party, and treats it as their plaything. 

But of even more importance for Christians is the fact that this community played a key role in advancing legal abortion on demand; the LGBT agenda and same-sex marriage; the removal of prayer from public schools; the widespread electronic availability of pornography; and the diminution of religious liberty for orthodox Christians. This community is the originator and driver of Critical Race Theory, that underlies much of the anti-white ideology being advanced during recent times. 

This group is an enormous force that is both anti-Christian and anti-white. They were welcomed into this country many years ago, and then proceeded to tear down the people who allowed them to settle here.

A couple of weeks ago, I was watching an online sermon. I heard a pastor, commenting on recent events, refer intentionally to the Democrats as "Demon-crats". And there is little question as to the demonic influences that are prevailing.

I had an opportunity recently to read a book called "The Sword of Christ", written by Giles Corey. I recommend it heartily. Corey argues that Christians ought to take a more muscular approach to confronting the evils enveloping us-- even if it requires fighting physically for our liberty and our church and our historic nation. Given the fact that our country has been taken away from us, that probably needs to happen.

The "Green" in Greensboro: Electric Buses and Blackouts

Aw we witness from afar the horrifying events in Texas, the absurdity of green energy is coming into greater focus. It is being revealed to be a sham and a fraud. The good people of Texas are enjoying the complications of prolonged or rolling blackouts; water shortages; and food shortages. 

But how could a red state like Texas fall victim to relying upon so much wind and solar? It's simple, really. The green energy companies buy off state legislators, whether they are Republican or Democrat. Republicans eager to demonstrate for the corrupt media their enlightened progressive credentials play right along.

A number of years ago, there was considerable fanfare when the city of Greensboro announced its purchase of electric buses. There was nary a protest even though there was at least one of two Republicans on the city council at the time. Federal grant money was involved.

I had the opportunity to speak with a reliable source who told me about the limitations of the electric buses.

Did you know that they cannot maintain their speed ascending hills, and must slow down causing traffic to back up behind them? Imagine them lumbering along at 25-30 mph on a major thoroughfare.

Did you know that during periods of high electric usage-- for instance,  when AC is used-- they only can ride for a few hours and then must return to the garage because the battery is depleted?

Did you know that a lack of parts and/or expertise servicing them renders them unusable for weeks at a time when problems arise?

And because of the previous two considerations, did you know there must be extra buses in reserve to replace them when they are out of commission, to a greater extent than with diesel buses?

Did you also know that these buses do not maintain the temperature inside the bus as well as the diesel counterparts, limiting comfort?

So our progressive politicians and city staff get to wave their progressive credentials proudly, while the users of the buses must deal with the consequences. And the costs might be higher than it appears on the surface.

Meanwhile, in the wake of a couple of ice storms over the last ten days, the city of Greensboro enjoyed widespread blackouts. I had pointed out previously how our idiot mayor, Nancy Vaughan, had made a big stink over Duke Energy cutting trees to clear the power lines, and enacted an ordinance to make the process much more difficult. Since then, we have had more blackouts, and when they occur, they are often more prolonged.

But dear Nancy was engaging in one of her foolish crusades, waving her green banner to save the trees-- even though Greensboro is one of the most lushly green cities imaginable from the standpoint of trees and vegetation.

Interestingly, the media does not discuss topics such as these. We must maintain the facade of green enlightenment in spite of all the downsides.

Guilford County Schools: Vaccines and Covid-19 Discipline

I had posted here Thursday about the fact that Skip Alston asked the governor to allocate 15,000 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine to teachers and other staff within the Guilford County Schools system. Later that night, WFMY reported that-- magically-- the county Health Department is going to be vaccinating schools personnel-- at least 10,000 over a period of two weeks. It will all begin on Thursday. 

But wait a minute. There are still many elderly and medically vulnerable within Guilford County who have not yet received the vaccine. They have been trying but it has not been available to them. Many have had to postpone their second dose. And yet, we have thousands of doses made available for school system employees.

Cooper and Cohen set up an elaborate framework to determine the levels of priority for who will get the vaccine and when. If there is a deviation from this plan, is it unreasonable to assume they gave the green light for this change?

It is truly outrageous that politics is determining which groups are granted priority for receiving the vaccine.

But with many public school students returning to the classroom, the socialists who run the system feel they must control things. Therefore, they are imposing a very high level of regimentation on the students, including limiting interactions with friends, changing how lunch is taken, and the like. After all, they can't be allowed to "spread the virus". 

It will be interesting to see how they will maintain discipline on these matters, especially in those schools that have high levels of minorities. Let's remember that much of our school board politically opposes school discipline, and ran for office on that platform. Are they now going to find suddenly that, at least on some matters, discipline is actually necessary?

Otherwise, it is not clear how they will get the students to comply with their regimentation. Is it all a pretense-- a show-- or are they really going to enforce it?

In the meantime, they will be jabbing away at school system staff to get them vaccinated while those who truly need it will have to wait. And some of them will inevitably die.

No Mandated Masks in South Dakota

Why is it so difficult for so many other GOP politicians to stick to their guns?

Public Schools and Political Jackasses: Give the Money Back to the Taxpayers

There were a couple of notable items in the news recently regarding our public schools.

First, our esteemed Governor Roy Cooper proposed that teachers in the state of North Carolina should be given $2,500 BONUSES because of their extra efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic.

And second, the chairman of the Guilford Board of County Commissioners, Skip Alston, has requested that the governor set aside 15,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses for teachers and other staff within the Guilford County Schools system.

Cooper wants the teachers to get bonuses even though, in organized fashion, they had refused to return to the classroom-- and even though "the science" that is supposed to be dispositive recommends otherwise. Alston wants them to get the vaccine preferentially even though there are many others at much higher risk who have not yet been able to get vaccinated-- and even though "the science" ordains that the vaccine is most needed in high-risk populations. Yes, some teachers and other employees of the county school system are likely at high risk, but other accommodations or special arrangements can be made for them. Of course, that has not been publicly discussed because it would have facilitated the reopening of the schools sooner, and they did not want that.

What really should happen with the Guilford County school system? One article indicates that school systems ought to be required to refund taxpayers since they had refused to go back to teaching in the classroom.

Imagine that-- the Guilford County Schools system refunding taxpayers because they would not deliver the services promised. That is what ought to happen.

Instead, we have Cooper seeking to reward them with bonuses; and Alston trying to reward them with preferential arrangements for vaccinations.

This is what you get when you put jackasses in positions of power. And that is what we have had, seemingly, for decades almost without interruption.

If the GOP Has Any Prospective Rock Stars...

... this guy is the one. Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida is a Tea Party kind of guy and a former House Freedom Caucus member: 

RIP, Rush...

I had posted here about Rush Limbaugh's cancer diagnosis one year ago.

The superlatives today have been flowing freely from many other sources. And they are all justified.

But one fact remains-- and it is a fact that Limbaugh himself admitted recently. Unfortunately-- he had failed, as have all of us in the conservative/constitutional commentariat. The nation has not been moved in our direction; and many of us know why. The full-blown communist/fascist takeover we have been witnessing over the last year is but one piece of evidence-- but not the only one, by any means.

Consider the following:

• the progressive/socialist march through the institutions;
• the corruption of the ideology of the young by the education establishment and by other online influences;
• the massive hits to marriage, life, family and religious liberty;
• the dramatic rise in anti-Americanism and the resultant loss of social cohesion;
• the deliberate alteration of the nation's demographic mix, and how that came about;
• the abject refusal of the Republican establishment to stand for conservatism, and deliver better outcomes for the American people; 
• the massive increase in the federal debt;
• the enormous, contorted welfare state; and 
• the massive degree of excessive federal power and activity at the expense of the states and the people.

The tragedy is that Rush was watching this all unfold in florid display during his last dying days. It is a tragedy for all of us.

Richard Burr's Censure

The North Carolina GOP made a bit of a splash this week when it voted unanimously to censure Senator Richard Burr. The issue, of course, was his vote to convict Donald Trump.

Never mind the flagrant contradiction that he had voted a couple of days beforehand that the proceedings were unconstitutional. The establishment GOP, of course, tends not to allow a "small" matter like the Constitution get in the way of political objectives.

But I think the North Carolina GOP, while taking the correct action, was probably acting in somewhat of a cynical fashion. The members on the executive committee know that Burr is a lame duck, and will not be running for re-election.

Moreover, they know that senators like Burr and Tillis are not accountable to the state party or to the party's base. They are instead primarily accountable to the donor class that put them in office. Tillis voted the other way because he will be ultimately subject to re-election; and will be unable to serve his donors if he cannot prolong his Senate career. Burr is freed from that conflict, and therefore felt emboldened to remove Trump.

The state of North Carolina needs a recall provision that would enable voters to remove elected officials at the local, state and federal levels. Citizens ought to be able to remove worthless politicians like Burr.

But we also need to repeal the 17th Amendment. It is the popular election of United States Senators that makes them political whores, subject to the whims and desires of the donor class. We need to return the election of Senators to the state legislatures.

We also need to get rid of leaders like Mitch McConnell, because it is this type of leader who recruits prospective candidates like Burr to run.

Finally, we need to revisit the Citizens United Supreme Court decision. This is the decision that allowed woke corporations and other leftist organizations to inundate political campaigns with cash. It gave the leftist billionaire class added power-- on top of the disproportionate power they already enjoy. And it further magnifies the propensity of Senators toward whoredom. The notion expressed in that decision-- that political contributions are a form of speech-- is a distortion. This was an activist ruling that worsened the political class dramatically. The GOP caucus in the Senate, for the most part, consists of men and women who represent slight variations on Richard Burr-- entirely unaccountable to their home state's conservative base, and untethered from the Constitution.
