More than Don't Let 'em Win

By DC Vesser

This book attacks a poison that for so very long we have called political correctness. Political correctness (PC) is the act of avoiding expression or language that can perceptively be construed as marginalizing by specific minorities or demographic groups. It is often difficult to argue against PC, because supporters of PC are likely to claim that contrary to using PC, one would instead use expressions or language that offends, which is oft what I wind up doing. This response is a false conflation of permitting and condoning, but the fallaciousness usually doesn't deter those who want to win the argument. It's easy to accuse someone of simply seeking justification to use epithets in order to put him on the defensive and into the unenviable position of having to assert that he's not a racist. It's also dirty and hateful to do so, and that's how such responses should be considered. We also review Agenda 21, Document 7277, the Illuminati, the Club of Rome, and the Committee of 300 in brevity. We discuss the New World Order and speculate about megaregions and their locations both in the United States and abroad. We take a very long train ride from the most southern tip of South America all the way to New Zealand, and we discuss possibilities for a likely location for the capital of the world (that may surprise you). We even speculate about a location right here in the United States for a habitat for useless eaters. We discuss how close we have come in our society to achieve all the goals of the New World Order. I really hope you enjoy the read.

I would like to say a gracious thank you to my Honey for all of her encouragement and support over the years and for keeping me strong in our faith; I love you! Thank you to my very kind and wonderful friends in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, the Hodges—Joan, Brian, AmyBeth, and their families. They have helped lavishly as not only wonderful friends, also as strong supporters. Without their help, I cannot imagine what my first book signing would have been like, and it was so wonderful to have had my first book signing in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania at the Brafferton Inn, proprietors Joan, Brian, and AmyBeth Hodges. A very special thank you to my brother Stuart for all of his help with Don’t Let ’Em Win, and another book he and I like to call (Just About) Everything You Should Know about a Handgun. Although many miles separate me from my brother, I thoroughly enjoyed the collaborative efforts and all of his rich ideas. Many kind thanks, brother! And thank you all for everything. Agape.

I am not one to let people stomp their feet and then have their way. I am not like that; I never have been.

Almighty God

Give us grace that we may cast away the works of darkness,

And put upon us the armour of light,

Now in the time of this mortal life,

On which thy son Jesus Christ came to visit us in great humility,

That in the last day,

When he shall come again in his glorious majesty to judge both the quick and the dead,

We may rise to the life immortal,

Through Him who liveth and reigneth with Thee and the Holy Ghost,

Now and Ever.

Amen.

Preface

I have used quotes in various places throughout this book; in order to maintain the purity of the quote I have quoted exactly as previously written. Unfortunately, that leaves certain gross errors in spelling and grammar that are (to me) unfixable. Moreover, as a direct quote, some portions may be nearly unintelligible. I regret the errors and ask your indulgence. Thank you.

I regret the errors and ask your indulgence. Thank you.

It is with no trepidation that I undertake a rewrite of Don’t Let ’Em Win. The idea originally came to me after I found a new publisher, one that treats me much better than my previous publisher. I pondered the rewrite and spoke with some people very close to me, and each one had their own ideas about why a rewrite is necessary. Wayne told me that I should consider a name change; okay, I have considered it. I believe from now on, this book will be called More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win. That takes care of Wayne’s idea. Thanks, Wayne. Additionally, the most wonderful and kind person I know (besides my lovely wife), who happens also to be one of my three very best friends on this planet, told me that in Don’t Let ’Em Win she quickly got overwhelmed with the enormity of information. Also, her husband—one other of my best friends on this planet—concurred there was a lot of material in Don’t Let ’Em Win that was not necessarily covered adequately in the fore pages of the book, so here is my best effort to do a better job getting you prepared for what is to come in this book. This is for you, PAB. Having said that, I am guilty of running down rabbit holes sometimes, so do not be too surprised if I missed a thing or two on these fore pages.

It has been said that a conspiracy theory—when used as a noun—is a belief that some covert but influential organization is responsible for a circumstance or event. Additionally, a conspiracy theory is an explanation of an event or situation that invokes a conspiracy without warrant, generally, one involving an illegal or harmful act carried out by government or other powerful actors. Although both are valid and accurate definitions for a conspiracy theory, we are past a time when we can rely upon a belief or an explanation. I believe the evidence found in this book far exceeds beliefs and explanations. It is far past a time that we can act proactively and nearing a time in history that reactivity will soon become moot! I furthermore think to call this a conspiracy theory would do great injustice to all other conspiracy theories. I passionately believe we are running short of time to thwart the left, the far left, the socialists, and all other noncapitalists that would harm our way of life here in the United States of America.

In More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win, I talk about the Illuminati. I talk a lot about the Illuminati. About the origins of the Illuminati, the existence of the Illuminati. Applications to become a member of the Illuminati. I even provided you with an application form for membership in the Illuminati. I talk about current and past members of the Illuminati and why certain celebrities are targeted to become members of the Illuminati—then about some of the goals of the Illuminati. I talk about symbolization used by the Illuminati and what certain symbols may mean as well as discussions of locations of annual meetings of the Illuminati and who actually attended per the Illuminati’s own attendance rosters, to add a little credibility of the existence of the Illuminati. I even told you the 2014 American Music Awards was littered with New World Order Symbolism—the Illuminati (go ahead, Google it) using stars like Taylor Swift, Iggy Azalea, and Jennifer Lopez and newcomers such as Charli XCX. We discuss some specific bloodlines to the Illuminati which are predisposed to becoming members of the Illuminati, connections to the Illuminati, and significance of those connections and bloodlines. I discussed possible locations for the capital of the world’s One World Government and am confident in my investigations enough to share my findings and references so as to dispose of any thoughts of conspiracy. There is a lot of discussion regarding plans of the Illuminati, what they (the Illuminati) have done, what they (the Illuminati) are doing, and what they (the Illuminati) plan to continue to do.

In More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win, we discuss extinctions of certain species—inclusive of animals and plants and yes, I even allude to extinctions of certain races of people. World depopulation is discussed as well as implications of what world population decimation might mean and that the Illuminati says world depopulation is necessary to sustain our lives—but wait! Our lives will never be the same after about the year 2045 anyway, so what does it matter?

In More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win, I talk about a mathematical equation that estimates a majority-minority tipping point date. By the year 2044, meaning that by 2045 the white population will become the racial minority of America. We talked about inventions, innovations, and changes that will occur by 2045, all of which will change your life.

In More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win, I talk about one’s wish to live forever as an avatar. I also tell you about Document 7277 and Agenda 21. Document 7277 is also referred to as State Department Publication 7277 or State Department Document 7277. No matter what you call it, there is still a vile stench to this document. Signed into law in 1961 by President John Fitzgerald Kennedy, Document 7277 gave specific instructions about how to systematically and totally disarm sovereign nations. The revolutionary of modern weapons within a world divided by serious ideological differences has produced a crisis in human history. In order to overcome the danger of nuclear war now confronting mankind, the United States has introduced, at the Sixteenth General Assembly of the United Nations, a Program for General and Complete Disarmament in a Peaceful World (excerpt from Document 7277’s introduction). The document also is considered a precursor to what we now call Agenda 21.

Since Agenda 21 was signed by President George H. W. Bush in 1992 at Rio’s Earth Summit, additional agendas you may wish to know about have also been signed. These agendas include Agenda 2015, which was a World Economic Forum; Agenda 2030, which will discuss transformation of our world and present an agenda for sustainability of our world which includes—among so many other things—a depopulation of the world and a redistribution of wealth and you might not like where the redistribution goes. An additional agenda is Agenda 2045 which presents an initiative to create technologies enabling transfer of an individual’s personality to a more advanced nonbiological carrier, extending life up to the point of immortality (an avatar). There is also an Agenda 2063 which (signed in 2015) calls for transformation of the African union to turn those third-world countries into modern nations. And the list goes on.

Agenda 21 is a 350-page document divided into 40 chapters that have been grouped into 4 sections:

Section I: Social and Economic Dimensions is directed toward combating poverty, especially in developing countries, changing consumption patterns, promoting health, achieving a more sustainable population, and sustainable settlement in decision-making.

Section II: Conservation and Management of Resources for Development includes atmospheric protection, combating deforestation, protecting fragile environments, conservation of biological diversity (biodiversity), control of pollution, and the management of biotechnology and radioactive wastes.

Section III: Strengthening the Role of Major Groups includes the roles of children and youth, women, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), local authorities, business and industry, and workers; and strengthening the role of indigenous peoples, their communities, and farmers.

Section IV: Means of Implementation includes science, technology transfer, education, international institutions, and financial mechanisms.

I contemplate a real existence of liberal tolerance and a great push from the left against any tolerance from the right. There is no such thing as conservative tolerance, only embarrassment, intimidation, harassment, and violations of rights of those that have a different point of view than those on the left!

In More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win, I talk about Obama and his failed administration and the plethora of ill-managed and mismanaged programs that did nothing but waste money, many of which were abandoned even while Obama was still in office; they all required tax hikes and fomented profiteering.

In More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win, I discuss useless eaters as defined by Henry Alfred Kissinger—an American statesman, political scientist, diplomat, and geopolitical consultant who served as United States secretary of state and national security advisor under the presidential administrations of Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford. I also tell you about what plans Mr. Kissinger has for these so called useless eaters.

In More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win, I explain to you what a conspiracy theory is and then list several conspiracy theories. I discuss similarities and differences between safe places, safe havens, safe zones, and safe spaces, and you are right to think there are more differences than there are similarities. I discuss the marginalized, the snowflake (if you already know what a snowflake is, you probably are one, know one, or hate one), and trigger warnings. I give you my views on a relationship between political correctness and socialism.

In More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win, I talk about constitutional law and international law. I tell you how Obama’s Supreme Court allowed international laws to influence their decisions on three major court decisions left up to a final decision from the United States Supreme Court.

In More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win, I tell you about our major political parties by defining those parties, and giving you a history of our political parties including how they began, and define certain lines drawn in the sand between those parties. There is even a little bit about parties from around the world. Did you know you can Google the most socialist countries in the world and find that our neighbor to the north (Canada) places high in the top ten most socialist countries in the world?

In More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win, I define, describe, and identify megaregion areas in the United States; I name eleven megaregions in the United States and give you their locations. Although we discuss useless eaters, I do not identify nor attempt to locate habitats for useless eaters for a number of reasons, but I will keep my list short here. For one, habitats for useless eaters will not be inviting places; they will be places where people go to meet their end all alone and with little comfort. Another reason I do not talk about a location for a habitat for useless eaters is because the megaregions in the United States are already identified. I found evidence our government has spent copious amounts of time considering the infrastructure and locations of each megaregion including exact locations for each megaregion, clear and careful naming of each megaregion, and specific crops to be grown at each megaregion or what specific product would be manufactured at each megaregion. I can find no such evidence for a habitat for useless eaters. That does not mean they do not exist! That just means our government is not prepared to go public with this information as yet. I have some speculation that I might even allude to in this book.

In More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win, I place you on board a train on the southernmost tip of South America; this train ride will take you on an overland journey to all borders of South America, Mexico, Central America, North America, into Russia, across Europe, Asia, Mongolia, into the Middle East, the Far East, China, India, Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and the rest of the world. Do not mistake this for a fantasy; the ink is already dry on the paper. Not only has this all been planned for, the project is all but funded and all but started.

In More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win, I talk a lot about gender, gender reclassification, and LGBQT issues, perhaps more than otherwise makes me comfortable. Did you know that New York City recognizes thirty-one different genders? I asked my eleven-year-old grandson how many genders are there; even he knew only two—boy and girl. Albeit there are several duplicities in New York’s list, New York City, in its infinite wisdom, chose to identify with all thirty-one genders. Also, New York City spent over $265,000 to advertise to let you know it is okay to use whatever bathroom you choose.

In More Than Don’t Let ’Em Win, I tell you about Kate Steinle (may God rest her eternal soul) and her murder at the hands of an illegal. Never mind the illegal is a recidivist felon; never mind the illegal was deported from the United States back to Mexico on a multiplicity of times. The fact remains—on July 2, 2015, while enjoying her last moments on this great planet with her father on California’s Pier 14 in San Francisco, California, Juan Francisco Lopez Sanchez shot and killed Kate Steinle with a pistol Sanchez had stolen. Get to that part of the book, read about it. The whole thing was egregious. More liberal tolerance!

You might notice I referred to that illegal murderer as illegal only. My opinion is we just are not taking a hard-enough stance with the way we loosely classify immigrants. As we continue to misclassify immigrant status, it just makes it easier to not vet or to avoid proper vetting potential immigrants.

Okay, that was then under copyright number 1-5051926208, DTD 20170505, ISBN 978-1-54390-874-9 for printed book and ISBN 978-1-54390-875-6 for e-book. I printed my book Don’t Let ’Em Win. Fast forward to October 1, 2018, and I am doing a rewrite of Don’t Let ’Em Win. There are two exact reasons for the rewrite. Those exact and specific reasons include that I made a commitment, which I do not take lightly, that requires a rewrite, and secondly I thought while I was at a rewrite I could add some additional text to the book. This is the new version of Don’t Let ’Em Win. Hope you enjoy it.

The Same

Out of the dust and out of the ashes will arise a New World Order. Cities you will not recognize as they are nothing like what you have ever seen before. The cities have no feeling—there is no warmth and there is no cold, there is no rain and there is no snow. We wiped away the seasons long ago just as we expunged your memory a long, long time ago, and now neither seasons nor memories exist. You gave way to this mind control which eliminated your memory because you were just too weak or timid to stand up for what you thought was right; you just went along with the tide!

There is no reason for seasons; seasons only interrupt progress of the earth and get in the way of advancement while at the same time seasons make everything different, and because there is a difference, our government decided we just could no longer keep pace with all the changes so a sameness was adapted as the new normal. Moreover, memories are very much the same as seasons; memories exist only to make things different, too, but one can become bewildered with memories. There is no longer a need for differences; we must shed our differences and move on, or so we have been told.

Memories only exist outside the boundary of memory, and seasons no longer change in our unchanging world. Without seasons and without memories, we will create sameness. The sameness will make us more manageable and easier to manipulate to their ways. Just like sheep, we exist to follow. The sameness will make us all the same.

We will all wear the same

Clothes and the same

Shoes.

All of our days will be the same,

All of our nights will be the same.

We all will learn the same

Thing at the same

Time. We will all look the same,

and act the same.

Knowing what something is, is not the same as knowing how something feels.

Conspiracy Theory

So what is a conspiracy theory? Quite simply, a conspiracy theory is an explanation of an event or situation that invokes a conspiracy without warrant, generally, one involving an illegal or harmful act carried out by government or other powerful actors. Conspiracy types include:

a theory of civil conspiracy, an agreement between people to deceive, mislead, or defraud others of their legal rights or to gain an unfair advantage,

a theory of criminal conspiracy, an agreement between people to break the law in the future, in some cases having committed an act to further that agreement,

a theory of political conspiracy, an agreement between people with the goal of gaining political power or meeting a political objective, and

a theory of a hub-and-spoke conspiracy, a conspiracy in which one or more principal conspirators (the hub) enter into several similar agreements with others (the spokes) who know concerted action is contemplated, usually where the success of the concerted action depends on the participation of the other spokes.

While many agree there are four types of conspiracies, most believe in five kinds of conspiracies which consist of:

a kind of conspiracy conducted by an enemy from outside, which refers to theories based on figures alleged to be scheming against a community from the outside,

a kind of conspiracy conducted by an enemy from within, which finds the conspirators lurking inside the nation, indistinguishable from ordinary citizens, invisible people,

a kind of conspiracy conducted by an enemy from above, which involves powerful people manipulating events for their own gain,

a kind of conspiracy conducted by an enemy from below, which features the lower classes working to overturn the social order, and

a kind of conspiracy conducted by a benevolent conspiracist, such as angelic forces that work behind the scenes to improve the world and help people.

Although we will discuss conspiracies more in-depth later on in this book. I just wanted to get this out in front of you from the onset so you will know that my intent here is not one of conspiracy. It is about getting the truth out there for you and encourage you to once again muddle through the day-to-day truths and understand the facts as they are—not the facts as they are presented to us. When I get asked what my book is about and I start telling people my theories, notions, and philosophies, I get a very quick Oh you’re a conspiracy theorist, even sometimes from those closest to me. Nothing is farther from the truth. We live in a real world, and within our small part of this real world there are those that exist solely to overthrow our way of life so we can one day wind up in a borderless world where every one of us (the many) will work for others and lose our property and wealth to those (the few) that will become our leaders. This might be our last hope, and we are running out of time to do something about our future. The one thing this book is not: it is not a conspiracy theory!

Unabashedly Unapologetic

Courage, a perfect sensibility of the measure of danger and a mental willingness to endure it.

—William Tecumseh Sherman

For far too many years, I have endured in a world of snowflake versus the other guy, and I was always that other guy. This is not a book about just the snowflake. This book is about where I think we are going askew, because sometimes it is just easier to agree with someone rather than go through the annoyance of trying to explain. One thing that I believe is happening right here, right now today is for so long everyone was so politically correct that over the last twenty or thirty years, because of political correctness and in order to not offend anyone by telling the truth, we have lost some of our right to freedom of speech. You might say that is not true because the First Amendment to the Constitution of our United States of America (among other freedoms) guarantees my right to freedom of speech. Although I agree with you and I looked this morning to make sure nothing happened overnight to change things and the Constitution of the United States under the First Amendment still says Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances, I consider it a categorical lie to imply we have not lost some of our freedoms of speech particularly when I am at the same time told to be careful of all the safe zones, safe places, safe spaces, and safe havens we have created to protect the timid and watch out for trigger warnings. In other words, give up on the political correctness and follow the constitution!

This book is about us being able to communicate again with each other on a more refined and adult level, without all the drama associated with being offended by absolutely everything the other guy says so we can interact and share ideas. This book is about the fact that there are usually two sides to every story and that it is all right for you to have an opinion, even if your opinion is different from others. This book is about those that believe they automatically get front-of-the-line privilege just because they do not want the inconvenience of having to wait their turn like all others. This book is about the fact that all lives matter, and there is no such thing as privileged behavior. If someone does you a favor which would imply some sort of privileged behavior, they just did you a favor—get over it! You just simply are not that important in the big picture!

By the way. What is a participation trophy? Why do we give participation trophies? Did you ever accept a participation trophy? How did that go?

A participation trophy is a trophy given to children that participate in a sporting event and do not place either first, second, or third, which typically would not make them eligible to receive a trophy or a ribbon. Most agree this practice began in the mid to late 1980s and is generally associated with millennials and their inability to accept a fact that they are perhaps not the world’s greatest at everything. And, no! I never was a recipient of a participation trophy. When I was young and in school and participating in sports, if you were not good enough to place, all of your friends ridiculed you until you either got better and placed in the top three places or you were humiliated into quitting altogether. Most likely not a good choice either but at least we did not snivel about our loss until some adult decided we were no more than pathetic losers and the only way we would ever get a trophy would be for someone to just give us a trophy. Who thought that would be a good idea? It just made things worse because that among many other similar things made us anticipate special treatment.

Participation trophies have become controversial as some critics argue participation trophies promote narcissism and entitlement among recipients of participation trophies. Psychological benefits of self-esteem are the basis of this rationale, but is it the self-esteem we seek, or is it the fact that no matter how poorly or how well we perform, everybody gets a trophy?

Supporters of participation trophies believe by earning participation trophies children learn trying their best is good enough; even if they do not win, they still get a trophy. With participation trophies, we have ostensibly said we no longer will try for that personal best we used to seek to achieve. Just participating is good enough!

Critics of participation trophies also note participation trophies are valued less than a first-, second-, or third-place trophy. In addition, participation trophies seem to devalue the first-, second-, and third-place trophies in the eyes of some winners because why work so hard to place? In many instances the loser gets the same trophy (for participation) as the winner gets for winning.

A New Jersey high school is trying out a new cheerleading policy that is already stirring up a real hornet’s nest after a mother complained when her daughter didn’t make the cut.¹ What the heck was that? Sounds to me like a one-time former recipient of that good ole participation trophy wanted the same benefit for her daughter. I remember the news clip from that day. It was a tearful moment; the young lady had a complete meltdown on television. Sophomore Stephanie Krueger said she’s been practicing four days a week for the last decade, dreaming of making it to Hanover Park High School’s top-tier cheering team, known as the Black Squad.² So the school’s leadership decided it was in the better interest of all students to make cheerleading as inclusive as possible and the historically elite team would be made up of every cheerleader in the eleventh and twelfth grades, instead of by skill level.³ Guess what, Stephanie: you and your mother have single-handedly destroyed that once top-tier cheering team and made it, so now everyone can be a member of the Black Squad.

This is exactly why our colleges and universities across the country are adding coloring rooms for their students, attaching a list of target words to all course-related materials, and opening up safe zones, safe places, safe spaces, and safe havens. My opinion—I do not know Stephanie Krueger, nor do I care to because I believe thanks solely to Stephanie Krueger, the idea of the Black Squad is dead forever. Thanks to Stephanie Krueger, no one will ever realize their dream of belonging to the elite cheer group known as the Black Squad. Moreover, thanks to Stephanie Krueger who single-handedly destroyed the school’s once sacred process of competing for the elite Black Squad, the school decided it is in the better interest of all students just to accept less of their once elite Black Squad. Thanks to Stephanie Krueger, no one at Hanover Park High School will ever self-actualize—ever again. Thank you, Stephanie Krueger, for making our life a more inclusive one wherein anyone can be just as good as you, and I pray you never need a brain surgeon nor an anesthesiologist.

There was a time when if one’s talents were not adequate to win one a position on the squad, one had the following options:

Practice more, come back later, and try again.

Find something you are actually good at and try out for that instead.

Take up a sideline sport.

No one owes you nor me nor anyone else everything we can think of for which to ask. There is no free ride, no free lunch. Whatever metaphor you choose to insert here, the fact remains—nothing is ever free. There is always a catch or some gimmick. Whenever you hear the word free the word itself should be in scare quotes.

Give up on trying to force-feed your gender-confused, pedophiliac, drug-induced, porn-obsessed, and liberal, leftist, progressive, socialist ideas and notions upon me. I will finish my little chapter about being unabashedly unapologetic with just a few demands of my own and an observation. I hope these demands do not sound too much like they come from a crotchety old man as much as they come from a concerned parent, from a concerned American citizen, and someone that is genuinely concerned about the future of our America.

It cannot be one way only; you just cannot get everything to which you think you are entitled. There is a difference between to what you are entitled and to what you have earned! No one can always be right no differently than anyone can always be wrong. There has to be some middle ground upon which we can agree.

We need to end all political correctness. I really do not care about how you think your individual needs should influence the outcome of this great nation! If you have not been fact-checking before you start spreading your ideas, one can only imagine how many lies and falsehoods you have spread. You owe it to yourselves and everyone that trusts you to fact-check everything you espouse. How do you fact-check? How about just ask the person making the claim for their evidence. Find out what others before you have discovered about source(s) of information. Do an online search such as Google, then double-check your work. Look for different opinions. Follow research leads of others. Read works from others! Never take anything at face value. If you do that, you might find that while the blurb you put out supports your exact current beliefs, it may be totally fictitious and later make you look like an underinformed boob who now, too, can no longer be trusted. Go to places analogous to factcheck.org, or snopes.com. There is so much political information floating around out there on social media that even Facebook had to respond; check into that. Lemme show you what I mean. I wanted to fact-check Hillary Clinton guilty of information spillage because of private e-mails. Today I entered this query into FactCheck.org which reveals:

A Guide to Clinton’s Emails—FactCheck.org

www.factcheck.org

https://www.factcheck.org/2016/07/

A Guide to Clinton’s Emails—FactCheck.org

Jul 5, 2016…criminal charges in connection with Hillary Clinton’s use of a personal email…Was Clinton allowed to use personal email for government business?…The State Department’s information technology staff did create two email…I want to be thoughtful cause we’re, as you know, big about the law, that I’m…

When perhaps you want to talk about the specific needs of the many and how you can improve on the existing political arena, then perhaps you, too, should run for political office. It is and always has been a contribution toward the collective whole that has made this country such a wonderful place in which to live. Fact-check first though! When we fail to fact-check, I believe the following things occur:

We are in such a hurry to get the fact out there that we first fail to check that fact and when we do send it out, we sometimes send out false news.

False news stirs up the crowd and lends to turn people into haters.

False news dilutes the truth.

There is a profound impact on freedom of expression, usually a negative impact.

Fewer people trust the many, but no one blames the media nor George Soros.

All likeminded people shall take a stand to salvage the rest of time and resources we have here on this planet earth.

Think about the goals of progressivism, which are:

protecting social welfare,

promoting moral improvement,

creating economic reform,

fostering industrial efficiency, and

government reform.

All lofty goals and they sound reasonable enough, but at what cost?

To protect social welfare was (perhaps) the first-world view of survival of the fittest. Originally sought after to soften some of the harshness of industrialization. We are well past the industrial period of the United States of America. Do you not see this as a major step backward? Before continuing with this slant on social welfare, let me pose a few questions. Do you believe in equal treatment? Do you believe that what is good and fair for the green should equally be good and fair for the orange? Do you believe that if there is an understanding of liberal tolerance there should also be an equal and shared understanding that there must also be a conservative tolerance? There is no such thing as conservative tolerance; otherwise there would be no issues such as muck raking against the president of the United States nor his appointees. Case in point, President Trump’s alleged collusion with the Russians with information provided and paid for by the Clinton Foundation and sexual misconduct allegations that are thirty-five years old on President Trump’s Supreme Court appointee Brett Kavanaugh. Let me give you a little history lesson. After nearly fourteen hours of debate, the House of Representatives approved two articles of impeachment against President Bill Clinton, charging him with lying under oath to a federal grand jury and obstructing justice. Clinton, the second president in American history to be impeached, vowed to finish his term. So based upon this man’s vow [sic] to finish his term, we—the American people—allowed him to stay in office after being impeached from office for one count each of lying under oath to a federal grand jury and obstructing justice. I will provide for you a partial list of political personnel of America from 2000 until present:

Gary C ondit, Representative (D-CA): his affair with 23-year-old intern Chandra Levy was exposed after Levy disappeared. Her body was found a year later and in 2008, an illegal immigrant with no relation to Condit was charged with her murder. Condit had often demanded that Bill Clinton come clean about his affair with Monica Lewinsky.

Ed Schrock, Representative (R-VA), announced he would abort his 2004 attempt for a third term in Congress after allegedly being caught on tape soliciting sex from a male prostitute after having aggressively opposed various gay-rights issues in Congress, such as same-sex marriage and gays in the military.

Strom Thurmond, Senator (R-SC), noted segregationist, fathered a child, Essie Mae Washington-Williams, with a 15-year-old African American in 1925 who was employed by the Thurmond family.

Steven C. LaTourette, Representative (R-OH), was elected in 1994 and had voted to impeach Bill Clinton for the Lewinsky scandal. He himself had a long-term affair with his chief of staff, Jennifer Laptook, while he was married. He married Laptook after his divorce.

David Dreier, Representative (R-CA), voted against a number of gay rights proposals, but was outed concerning his relationship with his chief of staff. He is featured in the 2009 documentary film Outrage.

Don Sherwood, Representative (R-PA), failed to win re-election following revelations of a five-year extramarital affair with Cynthia Ore, who accused him of physically abusing her.

Mark Foley, Representative (R-FL), resigned his House seat when accused of sending sexually explicit e-mails to teenage male congressional pages. He was replaced by Tim Mahoney.

David Vitter, Senator (R-LA), took over the House seat of former Congressman Robert Livingston, who resigned in 1999 following revelations of an extramarital affair. At the time, Vitter stated, I think Livingston’s stepping down makes a very powerful argument that (Bill) Clinton should resign as well. Vitter’s name was then discovered in the address book of Deborah Jeane Palfrey (the D.C. Madam).

Randall L. Tobias (R), Deputy Secretary of State and former AIDS Czar appointed by George W. Bush, stated that U.S. funds should be denied to countries that permitted prostitution. He resigned on April 27, 2007, after confirming that he had been a customer of Deborah Jeane Palfrey (the D.C. Madam).

Larry Craig (R-ID), a U.S. Senator for 18 years, was arrested on June 11, 2007 and charged with lewd conduct arising from his behavior in a men’s restroom at the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport. Craig pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of disorderly conduct; he later unsuccessfully sought to withdraw his guilty plea. He announced his resignation three months later on September 1, 2007, but changed his mind again, although he did not seek re-election in 2008.

Tim Mahoney, Representative (D-FL), was elected to the seat of Mark Foley, who had resigned following sexual harassment charges from his congressional interns. Mahoney ran on a campaign promise to make a world that is safer, more moral. In October 2008, he admitted he placed his mistress on his staff and then fired her, saying, You work at my pleasure. He then admitted to multiple other affairs.

Vito Fossella, Representative (R-NY), was arrested for drunken driving. Under questioning, the married Congressman and father of three admitted to an affair with Laura Fay that produced a daughter.

John Edwards, Senator (D-NC), admitted to an extramarital affair with actress and film producer Rielle Hunter, which produced a child, seriously undercutting his 2008 presidential campaign.

John Ensign, Senator (R-NV), resigned his position as chairman of the Senate Republican Policy Committee on June 16, 2009, after admitting he had an affair with the wife of a close friend, both of whom were working on his campaign. Under investigation, he then resigned his Senate seat 20 months early in 2011. In 1998, Senator Ensign had called for President Bill Clinton (D) to resign after admitting to sexual acts with Monica Lewinsky.

Chip Pickering, Representative (R-MS): on July 16, 2009, it was announced that his wife had filed an alienation of affection lawsuit against a woman with whom Chip allegedly had an affair. The lawsuit claimed the adulterous relationship ruined the Pickerings’ marriage and his political career.

Eric Massa, Representative (D-NY), resigned to avoid an ethics investigation into his admitted groping and tickling of multiple male staffers. He later stated on Fox News, not only did I grope [a staffer], I tickled him until he couldn’t breathe.

Mark Souder, Representative (R-IN), a staunch advocate of abstinence and family values, resigned to avoid an ethics investigation into his admitted extramarital affair with a female staffer.

Chris Lee, Representative (R-NY), resigned hours after a news report that he had sent a shirtless picture of himself flexing his muscles to a woman via Craigslist, along with flirtatious e-mails. He did not rely on a pseudonym or a false e-mail address but used his official Congressional e-mail for all communication. Lee said: I regret the harm that my actions have caused my family, my staff and my constituents. I have made profound mistakes and I promise to work as hard as I can to seek their forgiveness.

Anthony Weiner, Representative (D-NY), admitted to sending sexually explicit photos of himself to several women through his Twitter account. He resigned from Congress on June 16, 2011, but kept sexting after his resignation. On Nov 6, 2017, Weiner began serving a 21-month sentence for sexting a 15 year-old girl.

Scott DesJarlais, Representative (R-TN), admitted under oath to at least six affairs, including two affairs with his patients and staffers while he was a physician at Grandview Medical Center in Jasper, TN. Additionally, while running on a pro-life platform, DesJarlais made his ex-wife have two abortions, and tried to persuade a mistress who was his patient, into an abortion as well.

David Wu, Representative (D-OR), resigned from the House of Representatives after being accused of making unwanted sexual advances toward a fundraiser’s daughter, July 26, 2011.

Herman Cain (R) 2012 Republican presidential candidate, was accused of sexual harassment by several women. These accusations eventually caused him to suspend his run for the presidential nomination including Sharon Bialek, Karen Kraushaar, and having a 13-year affair with Ginger White. Donna Donella also reported possible inappropriate behavior.

Vance McAllister, Representative (R-LA), who is married and the father of five, was caught on surveillance camera deeply kissing a married staffer. Several prominent Republicans asked McAllister to resign. In response, he stated he would not seek re-election in 2016. McCallister said: There’s no doubt I’ve fallen short and I’m asking for forgiveness. I’m asking for forgiveness from God, my wife, my kids, my staff, and my constituents who elected me to serve.

Matthew P. Pennell (R), a staff member for Tea Party-aligned US Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-KS), was arrested on 17 counts of alleged child sex crimes. He was sentenced to 12 months in prison.

Blake Farenthold, US Representative (R-TX) was reported to have paid $84,000 of taxpayer money, via the House of Representatives Office of Compliance, to settle a sexual harassment complaint from a former staffer. Farenthold’s former communications director Lauren Greene sued the congressman in December 2014, and a settlement was reached in 2015. The identity of Farenthold with respect to taxpayer involvement was made public in 2017. This was the first documented case of taxpayer funds being used to settle sexual harassment complaints against a member of Congress.

Dennis Hastert, former Speaker of the United States House of Representatives (R-IL), pled guilty to structuring bank withdrawals in order to conceal deliberately-unspecified misconduct by Hastert against an unnamed individual years earlier. At a sentencing hearing in October 2015, Hastert admitted that he had sexually abused boys while he worked as a high school wrestling coach decades earlier.

Donald Trump (R), the 45th President of the United States, was accused of sexual assault by 13 women during the 2016 election and he denied the allegations. The allegations arose after The Washington Post released a 2005 video of Trump, recorded on a hot microphone by Access Hollywood, in which he brags about groping women. Trump himself renewed the controversy a year later by alleging that the video was fake, to which Access Hollywood replied, "Let us make this perfectly clear—the tape is very real.

Tim Murphy, Representative (R-PA), had an extramarital affair with Shannon Edwards, a 32-year-old forensic psychologist.

Murphy resigned his seat in Congress.

Roy Moore U.S. Senate candidate in Alabama (R) was been accused by nine women of sexual misconduct with them when they were in their teens.

As far as to promote moral improvement, I think a good place to start would be with cleaning up that previous list. Later on in this book, we will talk some about moral courage, but at this point I would just like to share with you what I believe to be the meaning of moral courage. Moral courage is the courage to take action for moral reasons despite the risk of adverse consequences. Courage is required to take action when one has doubts or fears about the consequences. Moral courage, therefore, involves deliberation and careful thought. In other words, if you know something is wrong and you choose to do nothing, you become complicit. The more you endeavor to breathe life into individual values, the better. Moral courage is also defined as brave behavior, accompanied by anger and indignation, intending to enforce societal and ethical norms without concern for one’s own social costs. Moral courage is merely doing the right thing—even when there is no one there to notice.

We all know these allegations of sexual misconduct are socially and morally and ethically wrong, yet we allow this kind of behavior to continue. Moral courage is the required leadership ingredient to empower good leaders and prevent bad leaders. There can be no casting a blind eye nor a deaf ear. We cannot say that person is a good leader, too bad about all the allegations of sexual misconduct.

More on protecting social welfare. All the muckraking; what is muckraking? Muckraking is the action of searching out and publicizing scandalous behavior—in an underhanded way—about famous people. The term muckraker is used to characterize reform-minded American journalists who attacked established institutions and leaders as corrupt. They typically had large audiences in some popular magazines. Otherwise a form of fake news. Progressives believe in social institutions to reform society.

The early days of promoting moral improvement saw social groups enforcing prohibition through temperance. This could have been a precursor to liberal tolerance—although the social groups often acted illegally (Carrie Notion would break liquor bottles with a hatchet). Certainly, it is now and was then illegal to destroy someone else’s property. You might not think a bottle of whiskey is property, but in my house, we know exactly to whom that bottle of whiskey belongs.

More on promoting moral improvement—teaching immigrants about America and American values so the immigrants will become better Americans and get them more involved in public policy.

I will close on moral improvement with these few thoughts of which (of course) we will explore more in-depth later on in this book. Later we will discuss costs of teaching immigrants about America and American values so the immigrants will become better Americans as we talk about Colin Rogister (a Caucasian male), a teacher in the California public school system of a young lady student Marlene—no last name given—(a second-grade student from an impoverished immigrant family illegally in the United States), how Rogister’s plan to satiate Marlene’s insatiable appetite for reading ultimately cost the United States taxpayer $250,000,000. Note the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund (MALDEF) advocates open borders, free college tuition for illegals, lowered educational standards to accommodate Hispanics, and voting rights for criminals. Imagine the implications there. Know that the number of immigrants entering the country annually increases, and know that between 2015 and 2060 the US population will lose 23 million US-born whites but gain 118 million racial and ethnic minorities, and immigrants.

On economic reform, the thought is that business is getting too big so the government should step in to regulate business by dividing business among the people and eliminate a need for competition. Without competition, there is no price regulation. Without competition, there is only monopoly!

On government control—there is a demand to end government corruption. I think we can all agree at this point there are copious efforts to do as much collateral damage as possible using conspicuous efforts to derail the Republican agenda. I think we can go back a few paragraphs and reread some of what we were discussing re: moral courage.

Or, think about the notions of socialism, which include:

free Medicare for all and a single-payer health-care system,

tuition-free college for all,

banning private prisons, and

abolishing the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency.

None of the above is economically feasible, and no one has any idea how to fund such a project; take, for example, abolishing ICE. That effort would (among so many other things) include finding other government agencies to manage the tasks and responsibilities of ICE, train those agencies to enforce tasks and responsibilities of ICE, and transfer power to specific agencies that have been retrained to enforce tasks and responsibilities of ICE. The list just goes on and on.

I have not even talked about wealth redistribution yet; I am not comfortable with wealth redistribution. I feel I earned my money, and I am pretty certain you earned your money. Do not allow socialism a chance to take hold of our government and start their social welfare programs and universal basic income programs. I do not believe in giving over my profit so others can lie about. That does not mean I am insensitive to specific charities, but charity should start at home.

Instead of giving your money to that pitiful-looking person at the stoplight with the sign that says my wife and daughters will do anything for money, how about take him home with you, let him mow your grass, edge your sidewalk, weed your garden, give him fifty dollars, and ask him to come back next week and do the same, let him get back on his feet and regain some self-respect and maybe even help return this person to being a provider instead of a panhandler? Nothing is free unless you make it free. And I did say I believe charity starts at home, but take that with a grain of salt as well. A New York couple allowed their thirty-year-old son to continue to live at home for free for so long that the son grew to expect to maintain his current condition for a very long extended period of time. It finally became a burden to that couple. When they asked their son to move out, he refused for many reasons. He so steadfastly refused, it took New York State Supreme Court Judge Donald Greenwood to order the thirty-year-old to leave his parents’ home.⁵

I am about to digress to just throw out some facts for whatever they are worth and see if any of them make any sense to you.
