It Has Begun- written on January 6, 2021

 It Has Begun. 



First of all, as you all know, I've warned about this scenario for close to three years. There are others like Trump's Niece Mary Trump, his Lawyer Michael Cohen, and his ghost writers who also knew what he would do. They all knew him personally and interacted with him over years. I've not had anything like that, yet I forecasted fairly accurately over time, step by step, what he would do out of desperation in his final days. How did I do that?

Because I am expert on three things, which I have been preoccupied with since I was 12 years old. The rise of the Third Reich and fascism in Europe,  the psychopathology of Adolf Hitler himself, and the mass psychology of fascist movements. And that is the story. No source of private Intel, no insider connections, no Ouija Board. Just my mind, and a little bit of foresight. 

I gave 35 years of my life fighting politically to prevent this from happening, then stepped away for personal reasons. Then, on March 17th, 2017, after Trump endorsed the Nazis marching at Charlottesville, I unretired, knowing i would have to jump back in to contribute something to stopping this. Not coincidentally, that was the day upon which Joe Biden decided to run. 

This year, I've written 149 blog articles on history and politics, and a dozen investigative reports, in which I have tried to get through to people in the Democratic leadership, the Biden Campaign, the retired military and intelligence professionals, and various civil rights and voting rights constituency groups. None of these layers wanted to face the truth about the violent and ugly new turn underway among the religious based white nationalist movement which grew like a cancer under Trump's misleadership. They also brushed off to a degree the documentation (from mainstream and government sources) that elements of this movement were steered from Moscow. They prepared for every legal challenge, but not for this. Not for Civil War. 

So, I tried to warn them, and now it is started. For me personally, this has been a year without much sleep. This is a movement of fanatics, which will look at today as like the first shots at Lexington and Concord, or the Boston Tea Party. They outgun the US Military, in terms of small arms. However today plays out, it is the beginning, and not the end.

Every American needs to ask themselves now, what is their relationship to this? What is your relationship to people defending Trump and these treasonous actions? Don't tell me what is legal or not, or what the authorities should do. Ask yourself, what should I do about the fascist next door, at my club, at the local bar, who I work with, or that I see at family reunions? Are we going to be tolerant and accepting of their opinions today? 

What are you going to do about that? 

Many of you thought I was off the rails in saying that Biden might be forced to use the military to put down the coming insurrection. Some people hate the military so much that they would rather accommodate with fascism than trust them to defend our Constitution. What do you think now? You are watching the same thing I am today. Asking for future generations.

Today in History, July 17, 1918- Czar of Russia and Family Executed

Today in History, July 17, 1918, Execution of the Romanovs, the Czar and Czaritsa of Russia and their Children by the Soviet Government. By July 1918, Russia was engulfed in a hellish civil war which would cost millions of lives and damage a country already reeling from the devastation of World War I. Swept away in this hellfire was the old Tsarist monarchy, last headed by Nicholas II. Nicholas had abdicated in 1917 as the Russian Revolution swept through the nation. Since then he had been a prisoner of successive governments, first the Provisional Government and then the administration run by Vladimir Lenin and the Bolsheviks. The Romanovs were shipped from place to place, eventually coming to Yekaterinburg in April, in the Urals, an area known for its hard Communist sympathies. As the White Russian forces grew closer, Lenin and his associates ordere...

Milton Friedman- The Man Who Revived Fascist Economics, and Called It "Freedom".

Image
  You may have heard the name before, as he was featured in a PBS Series, titled "Free To Choose", also the title of his most famous and misnamed book. He was a prolific author, and widely publicized by Conservative News Media and Magazines, especially by the followers of William F. Buckley. In fact, Milton Friedman is the current top economic advisor to the so-called "movement conservatives", from Nixon to Reagan, to Newt Gingrich and Trumpworld,  and is still to this day the main architect of the GOP approach to dealing with the present economic crisis, though he has been keeping a low profile. A very low profile. In fact, six feet under. He is currently dead, and has been for 14 years, yet his horrific philosophy continues to stalk about, haunting us like the living dead animated by a Voodoo curse, burning live Chickens, chanting incantations, and propitiating the irrational forces of Britain's Adam Smith and his "Invisible Hand". (Which is the hand...

How Do You Know If What You Are Reading Is True Or Useful? - A One Year Old Facebook Post

Image
 How do we know whether what we are reading is true, or for that matter useful? There are many journalists in the US today who are not only excellent writers, but are just good people. They are well informed, have the best intentions and are highly professional.  I have to force myself to write, and it comes with great difficulty because I am blocked, and had little journalistic training. Without an editor I feel lost, and feel as though I want to rewrite everything or throw it out after I read it. Reading books and articles is my favorite hobby, and when I'm doing that I am in my happy place.  As of now I have 30 News and Magazine sites bookmarked and I read them everyday as a routine. I usually read anywhere from 2-10 articles in each, depending upon what newsworthy events are breaking that day. Plus I have a number of books on history that I have going at any one time. This is no big accomplishment or unique, it's just how I occupy my time and is my form of work these ...
