chris – Something About Everything

In the Meme Time

Leftist memes are known for promoting half truths that prey on one’s emotions rather than using intellect to think. And this installment is no different. What is worse about this one is that the Left is taking advantage of a tragic event.

This is of course about the school shooting that happened in Minnesota on Wednesday morning. So we are going to start with the identity of the shooter and what the Left has not told you.

The shooter’s name is Robert, he had it changed to Robin in 2019 because he came out as a transgender female. And since the Left wants to celebrate this mental illness instead of treating it. They would rather you not know this madman thought he was a woman.

Robert/Robin was also a former student of the very Catholic school that he shot up and killed students and injured others during their morning Mass. He knew the school well. He knew they would be at morning Mass. This is a premeditated hate-filled attack on the school. And the Left doesn’t want you to know it.

Then there is the messages on the weapons and ammunition. The statements above are indeed correct. But again the Left doesn’t want you to know everything. Especially when it goes against the narrative. Mr Westman had written “Kill Donald Trump” on the gun as well. These images are ones the Left would just disappear.

Definitely an Anti-Trump Transgender activist. But not one who is an illegal alien or lawful immigrant. He was not a known member of any Antifa movement or radicalized by Isis. But he was radicalized by the Leftist Trans movement.

He is certainly not a right-wing anything. He is firmly Left-wing. There is no evidence indicating that he is a “white nationalist.” This is just race baiting by the meme’s Leftist creator. Not that any white nationalist group would accept a transgender member anyway.

Yes, he is indeed a homegrown terrorist who is mentally ill. And so are nearly all the others. Most of the recent school shooters have all been radicalized by the Leftist Trans movement.

But the Left doesn’t want you to know that. They keep it hidden. When they talk about this most recent shooter. They call him by male pronouns even though he identified as a female. Because it doesn’t fit the narrative.

We know who the shooters are. We know that lately most have all been Leftist Trans and not a single one are right wing or anything close to it. They are all mentally ill.

Fix it – Congress & Electoral College

Here is a great fix for Congress and the Electoral College. One of the largest issues with Congress is that it is too small. Proportionally we don’t have enough representatives for the size of our population. And this is due to the Reapportionment Act of 1929.

This Act capped the US House, permanently, at 435 seats. It was temporarily lifted and increased to 437 seats in 1959 when Alaska and Hawaii became states. But the lift didn’t last long and was reverted back to 435 seats in 1963.

Back in 1929, the population of the United States was around 121 million people, today that is 346.8 million people. The population has tripled since the Act was put into place.

Mathematically, in 1929 a Representative had a constituent base of slightly more 278,000 people. While today that base can be over 797,000 people. Far, far too many for a person to really represent well.

There needs to be an Act that changes the 1929 Reapportionment Act. This will make Congressional Districts smaller, more numerous, and increase the size of the House of Representatives.

I am not alone in this thought either. There are others out there that think the same thing. It would be better for everyone. The question is what should the new cap be for the US House?

An easy question when thought of in slightly different light. Don’t cap the number of representatives. Cap the size of the districts by population. Make the largest possible district size limited to 500,000 people. Less than what some of them are now, and far larger than what they were in 1929.

That would give us about 694 members of Congress, an increase of 259 members. Congressional districts would be smaller, making it easier for the congressman to represent their district and constituents.

It would also increase the number of Electoral votes needed to win the Presidency by 130 votes.

Both of these things are a great idea. And every decade, with the census results. Congress could grow in size as the population increases. And so would the number of needed Electoral votes. It’s a win-win all around.

The One Big Beautiful Bill

A special edition of In the Meme Time.

The Left is lying when they post this nonsense. This entire meme is absolutely false and nothing but fearmongering to the uninformed. H.R. 1 is available to read online in it’s entirety like all bills before Congress. Just go and do it and see for yourself.

You can find the full text and PDF searchable version here: https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/1/text

Just like the Project 2025 scare. None of the people posting the “dangers” and so-called provisions of Project 2025 ever read the document. If they had, they would have seen that none of the scare bullet points existed at all.

Again so in the One Big Beautiful Bill. None of the scare bullet points exist. Not one. On any page.

There is nothing in this bill about stopping elections. The only elections this bill has anything to do with is the election of At-Will employment. Not a thing to do with Federal, State, or Local elections.
There is nothing in this bill that allows the President to ignore the Courts other than what is implied in the Constitution of the United States by the Founding Fathers.
At-Will employees are just that, at-will. The same for all right to work states.
Judges, again a repeat attempt to think there is something here that isn’t.
Protesting have always been tracked and in some cases can be a criminal offense if another law is broken. But there is nothing in this bill about either.
LGBTQ+ isn’t even mentioned.
VPN isn’t even mentioned.
Voting is mentioned of course, but in other cases. Nothing in this bill will suppress your vote unless you are an illegal alien and voting illegally in the first place.

So, there you have it. The entire campaign is misinformation and a LIE. There is NOTHING in the bill remotely resembling any of the above ignorant points.

If you think there is, please point out the PDF page number and line item number in the comments for review. I’m sure no one will post anything because the moment they actually read the bill, if indeed they can read, they will find nothing of the kind.

The 86 Crowd

Those who are threatening the President of the United States with their 86 posts should all be charged, arrested, and sent to prison for 5-10 years. This is not a joke. It is not funny.

Just as in President Trump’s first administration where a comedian posted a fake severed head. This is a willful desire by people to commit murder or have someone commit murder, and assassinate a sitting president. It is not humorous. And it should never be posted in in jest.

Post it. And I will do what I must. Including unfollow, unfriend, and block you for all time on my Social Media accounts. I will also report it. And I hope you will go to prison.

This behavior must end. It crosses the line. And I am done with it.

In the Meme Time

I love to ridicule Leftist memes. And the Left’s useful idiots give a never ending supply of them on social media. So here we go into this installment. It will be short but sweet.

Now this meme is supposed to imply that everyone who isn’t a “native” American Indian is here illegally. And that is just plainly incorrect. Anyone that understands history should know it.

First though, there is no such thing as an “illegal immigrant”. One is either an immigrant or an alien, illegal or legal. This is because to be an immigrant one must lawfully exit their country of origin and then travel to and lawfully enter their new adopted country. Both actions are lawful. Take out the lawfulness and they are not immigrants.

And immigrants, true ones, fully immerse themselves into the culture, language, and customs of their new country. They don’t wave flags of the country of origin. You can be proud of your heritage from the old country but you become a member of the new one.

Also, there is no such thing as a “native” American Indian. These tribes and proto-tribes crossed into North America from Asia. They were alien conquerors and explorers who settled in this new land. And won the land through the right of conquest.

So now we come full circle. And the reason why none of us are leaving as suggested in the meme. Because we too came here as alien conquerors and defeated the American Indian tribes that existed here before us. We own the land through the right of conquest. The Indian tribes lost. Case closed.

Now if we let these alien conquerors who have been flooding our homeland succeed then we too will be a vanquished people like those before us and they would win the land through right of conquest. But we are fighting back with the full force of our laws against them.

Trespassing is a crime. They have committed that crime, every last single one of them, and some have committed others. We need to look at the Bible for the proper response because there are those on the Left that say sending them back isn’t Biblical.

God Himself established the first national border when he exiled man from the Garden of Eden. And placed at it’s gate an Angel with a fiery sword. The Angel has only one duty. If anyone trespasses into the Garden they are to be slain. That is the Biblical reaction to those who enter your nation illegally. Death and that it should be.

Don’t Take the Church with It

The death of Pope Francis is a sad thing as all deaths are, we mourn the loss. But he was a determent to Catholicism and Christendom. A progressive Leftist which I have written about a number of times over the course of years he lead the Roman Catholic Church. And he does not follow the Gospel of Jesus Christ or the teachings contained in the Holy Bible.

It is hoped that in his last hours he came to know the errors of his ways and sought forgiveness for his many sins. And thus came to know the Lord Jesus as his personal Savior. But I have my doubts and pray that I am wrong with them.

And now the Catholic Church must find a new Pope to lead them. To be the voice of the Church as it moves forward into the 21st century. It is sad to think that most of those eligible to vote in the upcoming Conclave have all been appointed by this wolf-in-sheep’s clothing. I fear for the Catholic Church and how far it may fall. Taking with it the billions of Catholics around the world.

False teachings within the Church need to be stamped out. There is only ONE path to God and Heaven where people can be saved. That is through believe in Jesus Christ. Any other path leads to damnation and a separation from God forever.

Additionally the Catholic Church must exorcise its authority over those who profess to be members yet their actions are in opposition to the teachings of the Church and Scripture. This is especially true when it comes to politicians.

Excommunication.

Interdiction.

These are the tools available to the Church, the Pope, Archbishops, Bishops, and Priests of the Faith. They should use them as they once did when wayward nobles thought they could go against the Church.

So to the Pope-to-be, we are watching. The true followers of the Faith are watching. God is watching. You must shepherd His flock which sometimes calls for a strong hand.

Do the right thing before God which many times is the wrong thing before man. Do not get caught up in what the World thinks or wants the Church to be or do. The world is going to hell. Don’t take the Church with it.

The Fight is On

There is a war going on for the heart of our Republic. In the end either the Republic will prevail or Tyranny will reign supreme. What is this war you may ask.

It is something deeper than Republican vs Democrat. Conservative vs Liberal vs Leftist. It is truly right vs wrong. The Constitution and our Founders dream vs those that want to destroy that dream and this Republic from within.

I have written about this topic before and must again write on it. This is about our 3 branches of government. What they are. What they do. And what powers they have and don’t have.

There is a common myth that the 3 branches of government are co-equal. This is not the case and it is not how our Founders designed it. One branch was singled out to be the weakest branch by design. Our Founders saw the inherent evil in a powerful and unelected judiciary. So the purposely restrained the power of the courts.

But let’s review the 3 branches and what they do. There is the Executive branch. This is headed by the President. In a nutshell, the Executive branch sets and enforces policy and enforces the rule of law as created by the Legislative branch.

The Legislative branch is Congress, both the House and Senate. Their job is simple. They create laws, no other branch has this power.

Lastly is the Judicial branch. This is made up of the of the Supreme Court and any lessor courts as directed by Congress. Here is where there is a lot of confusion. The job of the Court is NOT to interpret laws. This is a wicked lie and usurpation of power and authority not granted to the Courts under the Constitution. The Courts job is to judge actions under the law.

Our Founders did not grant the Courts the power of “judicial review” of laws, statutes, acts, or even of the Constitution itself. This wasn’t an oversight, this was deliberate. These are all powers that the Courts have granted unto themselves without any authority other than “they said so.” These powers were and are well established in European Courts and have been abused for centuries. That is why our Founders did not give the Courts of the United States these powers.

The Constitution is very clear. All powers granted to the specific branches are spelled out in details. Any other powers are not granted to them at all. They are all reserved for the States or the People. This too is written in plain language.

Today we have a President challenging this run-a-way activist Court which has issued opinions contrary to the rule of law and the policies of the administration. These are the correct actions by the President to ignore these opinions and it is causing an uproar.

The Judiciary committee in Congress will have the final say on this and we pray they will see the light and strike down these unelected black-robed tyrants attempting to usurp the power of the Executive branch as they did the Legislative branch. And the people.

Let them pass

During the early run of the Babylon 5 television series there was a war between two of the major powers. The Narn and the Centauri. Old rivals for sure with a long backstory and history between them.

As the war breaks out, both sides are trying to get Earth involved on one side or the other. At some point during this Commander Jeffery Sinclair, the Earth Ambassador and commander of the Babylon 5 station is in a conversation with the Vorlon Ambassador, Kosh. This is the exchange:

Kosh: “They are alone. They are a dying people. We should let them pass.”
Cmdr Jeffery Sinclair: “Who, the Narn or the Centauri?”
Kosh: “Yes.”

Reflecting on this I see it can be applied to today’s real word just as easily. With a few changes to the players it would read as this:

The USA: “They are alone. They are a dying people. We should let them pass.”
Europe: “Who, the Ukrainians or the Russians?”
The USA: “Yes.”

In the Meme Time

The useful idiots of the Left are an endless source of Leftist memes to tear apart and debunk. I follow them on social media so I can get these gems.

This is today’s installment and it’s a beauty.

Like many Leftist memes, this one contains a hint of truth to trap the unwary and deceive them into Leftist thinking (if such a thing exists.) Don’t be fooled by it.

Let’s start with the hint of truth. Medicare is bad. That’s about all the truth it contains. Medicare is bad because it is socialized healthcare funded by taxes and government ran. The percentage of taxes is irrelevant. The government has no business providing or administering healthcare services.

Remember that the Boston Tea Party happened because of a half-cent tax. It’s the tax funding and government control that makes it bad. In reality it makes it evil and wicked. But going down that rabbit hole is beyond the scope of this article.

Yes it’s too expensive because it is forced through taxation and theft.

The top part of this meme is completely off the mark. Paying my so-called health insurance through my employer at any is neither good, capitalist, or affordable.

Capitalism believes in the free market. Health insurance is not in the free market place at all. It is restricted by the states. If this was a free market insurance system, all plans would be available in all areas without the state imposed burdens and red tape. Additionally, health care providers would have to publish their fees for all procedures before you have any. That would enable the consumer to shop around.

Or even better, eliminate health insurance all together and have the consumer negotiate with their provider directly instead of going through a middleman that might deny the charge and claim. That would be the most capitalist way of handling healthcare.

And finally, the last bit is somewhat true. The Left does propagandize that more government, more taxes, and less freedoms and rights are the better way to go. From the ads we see on TV, all of social media, the garbage out of Hollywood, and what is being taught in the government ran schools is nothing but propaganda that demonizes the United States, a Republican form of government, and capitalism.

Tweedledee and Tweedledum

Iowa’s two Senators need to go. Just because they have R’s after their names doesn’t excuse them or mandate our support. It’s time for new leadership for Iowa in the Senate.

Chuck Grassley was an effective force back in the day. He was first elected to the Senate in 1980. He has spent the last 44 years in the Senate. Now he is 91 years old. And it shows in many ways.

He looks frail. His speech is slow and comes out as if every word is difficult to say and that he has to think about the word before saying it.

He is out of touch. At 91 years old he doesn’t understand modern technology and innovations, yet votes or writes laws that govern our use of these things through the lens of the early 20th century mindset.

And yes, I question his mental competence and have for some time now. Although his mind is not as far gone as President Biden’s, it’s also not far behind.

Chuck Grassley needs to retire before he crosses that line, if he hasn’t already.

Then there is Joni Ernst. Many conservatives agreed that she wasn’t their choice when first nominated. Other candidates were better options but she got the nomination. And between her and any Democrat running. It was a hold your nose and vote for Ernst. The lesser of two evils.

DC has changed her or possibly made her show her true colors. She is a RINO and votes against the conservative Republican agenda time after time. She has been censured by multiple county Republican Central Committees in Iowa for her actions. Yet she is still there and isn’t taken those seriously.

And even now she is against President-Elect Trump’s agenda and appointees that need Senate approval. Rumor has it that she actually wants a Cabinet position herself. Fat chance of getting one when you are working against the next President of the United States.

Ernst is pro-war while Trump wants to see an end to the wars that were started under the Biden Administration. Ernst is pro-Transgenger in the military. A bad social experiment that Trump is going to end. Ernst is not one of us. She needs to go before she can cause more harm to the incoming Trump Administration.

These two Senators should not seek re-election when their current terms are over. It may even be better if they both resigned immediately instead of waiting for their term to be over.

Chuck Grassely is old and frail both physically and mentally. He should resign before he loses any of those factors completely.

Joni Ernst on the other hand should resign because she is not doing her job. She is a RINO and like all RINOs she needs to go. Be voted out of office or removed from office.
