The Joys of a Quiet Life

Posted: June 7, 2024 by datechguy in Uncategorized

I watched the Trump interview with Dr. Phil and something hit me during it.

There have been several times when I have been in the middle of things, from clearing the camps in Denver and the attack on the hotel where Conservative bloggers stayed, to boarding the Tea Party express bus to Washington, to being in the middle of the mob of “antinazis” in Boston that had to be held back from attacking two men one wearing a Trump flag and one wearing an Israeli flag back in 2018 ( a story that’s very relevant now).

But there have been also times when I just missed being in a bad spot, I had hoped to be in Texas at Pam Geller’s event but things fell through so I wasn’t there when the gunman started shooting, work prevented me from getting to DC to cover the J6 events which almost certainly in this environment would have put me in jail and destroyed my family finances.

Furthermore it has also hit me that if I had made it as an independent reporter I would have been targeted by the left in a way that would have again made life difficult for DaWife and family.

I’d like to think I’d have still done a good and honorable job if any of those things had happened, but part of faith is trusting that even if you don’t know what God’s doing God knows what he’s doing.

I’m wondering if I’ve been granted a quiet life simply because a less quiet life might not have been conducive to the heath of my soul.

It would be nice to do something for the country and in a very small way I hope we still do good here but being a good husband, a decent father and doing well in small ways in the community where you actually know and see people face to face is of no less value and might even be of greater value.

Either way may I be grateful for the quiet life that I have now been granted and carry myself well within it.

It’s a small vocation but if that’s where God has put me and might put you let’s do that job that we have been given.

The Democrats finally got Trump – now we have to make them pay for it!

After more absurd attempts than the entire run of Wile E. Coyote cartoons, Democrats finally succeeded at getting Trump.  All it took was an utterly corrupt District Attorney,  a similarly dishonest judge, twelve partisan jurors, and a complete trampling of the American judicial system. This was the culmination of almost eight years of constant scheming  

At the beginning of each previous attempt Democrat politicians, their sycophants in the news media and Hollywood, and their useful idiot foot soldiers celebrated with extreme glee.  They only had their hopes dashed over and over again as their schemes failed just as surely as if they came directly out of an Acme catalog.

The total glee the usual collective mob of leftists displayed at the verdict out of New York was exactly what everyone on the political right expected.   Check out this statement from George Stephanopoulos.

And we begin, Michael, with another first in American history. Donald Trump, now the first and only man who’s held the presidency to face a felony conviction. There you see the verdict sheet filled out by a New York jury. Guilty on all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records as part of an illegal scheme to corrupt the 2016 election that made him president. This is the third time this year that citizen jurors have held Trump accountable. In January, an $83.3 million judgment for defaming E. Jean Carroll. In February, a $450 million judgment for civil fraud in his business dealings. Juries. Ordinary people doing their duty under enormous stress, demonstrating civic courage. Remarkably, convicted felons can run for president. So, this year, in this extraordinary time, American voters will be the ultimate jurors. We’re going to cover the fallout of this unprecedented event.

It has been abundantly clear that this fraudulent verdict has infuriated Conservatives and Libertarians to a level that the Democrats never expected in their wildest dreams.  It is as if they poked a sleeping dragon in the eye.  Also a large percentage of Independents immediately rallied to Trump’s defense. 

As you can see from this headline, Donald Trump campaign has raised over $200 MILLION in just THREE days since guilty felony verdict, son Eric Trump claims (dailymail.co.uk), Trump received an absolute avalanche of donations immediately after the verdict was issued.

The conviction of President Trump will go down in history as one of the greatest legal travesties ever perpetrated.  One of the most crucial safeguards of our freedom, the jury box, has been desecrated by this farce.

We must make the political left pay using the soap box.  Let the world know how outrageous this verdict truly is on social media.  I know it will be difficult because the left has compromised the soap box through censorship on social media.

We must make them pay at the ballot box. We must vote for Trump in such large numbers that another stolen election is impossible.  Reelecting Trump is the only way of preserving the shattered remains of our Constitutional Republic.  If Biden is reinstalled in the White House, the only of way of restoring the United States is using the cartridge box

The Best and Most Impossible Advice a Democrat Will Ever Get

Posted: June 5, 2024 by datechguy in Uncategorized

The foolish martyrdom of Donald Trump by the left continues as left continues to push the whole “convicted felon” line and the right counters with lists like this:

Sakharov was a convicted felon.
Solzhenitsyn was a convicted felon.
Vaclav Havel was a convicted felon.
Martin Luther King was a convicted felon.
And Nelson Mandela was a convicted felon.

Notably missing from that list is a rather famous Jewish fellow who two thousands years was was as Douglas Adams put it: “nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be nice to people for a change“.

And lines like this:

As for Nelson Mandela, finally, what business does that convicted felon have in being in the South African president’s office?! That’s the second convicted felon who got elected to the presidency (although for the first time, not for the second). It’s scandalous! It’s a travesty!

In fairness Mandela did actually arrange for the murder of people.

But most troubling for the left it produces cash like this:

And while Byron’s York’s advice about waiting a week or two before deciding if the bounce in the polls is permanent this entire farce, while playing well in deep blue states and liberal bubbles on twitter seems to make the “too big to rig” result a real possibility.

At least one Democrat has noticed and given the Governor of New York some excellent advice:

In terms of the election it’s the best advice the Democrats will get. Not only would a Trump pardon mitigate a lot of the outrage in place and perhaps slow down the flow of cash to the Trump campaign such a pardon would have some excellent legal side effects.

You see once the Trump cases reaches an appeals court that is not populated by elected judges who have to face deep blue votes like the ones who replied to Mr. Phillips tweet it will not only be thrown out but very likely toss out with prejudice. In short it would negate the whole effect of influencing low information voters that the entire case was about. The last thing the left wants is a headline before the election quoting judges saying Trump trial was unfair or decided wrongly.

However a pardon gives NY State judges an out. While Trump’s lawyers are still sure to appeal the convictions based on the errors the justices can declare the case moot due to the pardon rather than ruling on the merits which a lot of them really would rather not do.

Alas however as much as many Democrats might realize this is the best out for the party nobody is going to convince a sitting governor who will be facing a deep blue electorate who have been promised blood for almost a decade to invite the wrath of said voters for the sake of Joe Biden and the national party.

Unless they have something really big to hold over Hochul’s head it just isn’t going to happen.

The impact of Trump’s conviction?

Unlike the media’s ‘experts, ‘ I am in a state of uncertainty, unable to predict how Trump’s conviction in New York will affect the November elections.

The only negative influence on Trump would be if he were sent to prison. That would eliminate his ability to use his effective campaign style to convince voters of his ability to handle the job.

Already, some polls state that conviction will play a limited role in the presidential outcome. But, of course, these are polls months before the actual vote and, therefore, are meaningless.

As one sage told me many years ago: “The only poll that counts is what happens when people go to the ballot box.”

What I do know is that the election will be decided on a variety of issues: the economy, immigration, abortion, and the apparent weakness of the United States in international matters, such as Afghanistan, Israel, and Ukraine.

The issue will fall flat if the Biden campaign focuses on Trump’s conviction.

Moreover, the election’s outcome will be heavily influenced by the usual key states of Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Nevada, and a few others. The sway of local issues and the uncertainty surrounding Robert Kennedy’s third-party candidacy could potentially tip the scales in favor of either Biden or Trump.

It’s challenging to gauge Kennedy’s strength other than as a protest vote against the major parties. Only George Wallace and Ross Perot made significant inroads in the presidential election.

The media will continue to focus on Trump’s conviction and the faults they see in his personality. However, the media’s influence in presidential elections has declined significantly in the past decade.
