WHY WOULD BLACK PASTORS SUPPORT DONALD TRUMP?

Posted on December 22, 2025 by | 3 comments

There has been a lot of talk about black Pastors endorsing Donald Trump. Some pastors feel that this should not happen and some have no problem openly endorse him. I might take a step out there and say that we see the same thing with white pastors. But what I have seen is people respond to leadership and strength. Not all do but most will. Recently there was a meeting held between a large group of black pastors and Donald Trump. Some attended and some didn’t.

To look at this we need to see both sides of the argument. What I see, for the most part, are pastors that don’t think that the church should be involved in the political arena and so they won’t endorse anyone. These pastors do not know what God’s intent for the church in the political arena is. The church is supposed to raise up those who run for political office. Churches that don’t support that ideal are failing our nation. Exodus 18:20 And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws, and shalt shew them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do. (21) Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens:[1] The position most pastors take is to stay silent concerning politics. Some pay no attention to what is going on or at least from the statements they make, make it seem like that is the case. One pastor that does not support Trump is Pastor Jamal Bryant–who was invited to the meeting but declined the offer–questioned the intentions of some of the reverends. “I really felt that their contingency was really selling out their vote for nothing,” said Bryant, who briefly ran for Congress as a Democrat earlier this year before calling off the bid. “We’ve heard nothing from (Trump) about bridging the gap of economic inequality, mass incarceration, public schools, trade with Africa and other issues important to the black community.”[2] From his comment it is obvious that he does not listen to the policies and concerns of Donald Trump.

Another pastor that doesn’t endorse Trump is Bishop Paul S. Morton. His reasoning falls in line with the pastors that believe that the church should not step into the political arena, at least that is what his comments leave us to believe. Bishop Morton was invited to go but didn’t. He commented: “I think it’s so very important to meet. I don’t mind pastors meeting with anyone, but to endorse someone, it was out-of-order. We have to protect the Kingdom and I told them I refused to go to a meeting. I think it was a set up. You get us there and then they put the cameras on you,” Bishop Morton said.[3] He states that endorsing a candidate is ‘out of order’. It is no more out of order than a pastor standing against abortion or homosexual marriage. Pastors are to inform the people concerning the biblical stand of the candidates. Most pastors do nothing and the result is the anti-American, anti-Israel fool we have in the White House today. Dallas TX. mega church Pastor Robert Jeffress endorses Trump, receives a standing ovation.

The first question is why would a pastor endorse a candidate like Donald Trump? Again. I have to go back to what I said in my opening statement, people respond to leadership and strength and Donald Trump exudes leadership and strength. You don’t build yourself the empire that he has without leadership and strength. Many have called him a racist because of his statements towards Mexicans that have snuck across the border and the radical muslims that have done the same. It’s funny how a person that is concerned with the United States upholding our laws and maintaining our national security from people determined to take us down can be accused of racism.

The man who organized the meeting between Trump and a large contingency of black pastors made this statement: Darrell Scott, the organizer of Monday’s meeting, said a formal endorsement was forthcoming. “We made history today,” Scott said. “We had meaningful dialogue with Mr. Donald Trump. We voiced concerns that are sensitive to the African-American community and we asked questions and the questions were answered where we were all satisfied with the answers.”[4] Many politicians have listened to the concerns of the people and gave satisfactory answers but did nothing once in office. These politicians have no track record of accomplishing what they promise. This last election is a perfect example of those failures in the Republican Party. Donald Trump has a record of accomplishments in dealing with many different people in many different countries and is well respected. People who lie and are dishonest in business don’t garner the respect of their peers. But plenty of attendees showed enthusiastic support for Trump, saying Trump has been villainized by his critics and some in the media. “You want stories, you want controversy. Anybody who knows Donald Trump personally knows that he’s not a racist,” said Steve Parson, a black pastor from Richmond, Virginia. Parson said he was in “total support” of Trump.[5]

I was watching Lou Dobbs the other night and he had on Roger Stone, political advisor to Nixon and Reagan. He made a very bold statement about Trump. He can’t be bought! No lobbyist can own him. The political party can’t own him. This is why the Republican elite are afraid of him. This commanding independent character attracts voters, even those that haven’t voted in years. Another thing that attracts voters is he won’t accept large donations. According to InsideGov.com the percentage of donations to his campaign under $200 is 42%.[6] Jeb Bush has raised 25 times the money that Trump has but Trump is 3 times higher in the polls.[7] These numbers also point to something else that most of the other candidates in the Republican Party lack, people have confidence in Donald Trump. Commenting after the meeting with the black pastors Pastor Steve Parson commented: “He’s best for not only for the country but certainly the black community. We’re wanting to get off of welfare and we feel that can be done through the information the knowledge of a person like Donald Trump.”[8]

The American public has not seen confidence in our nation’s leaders for the last seven years and the prospects in the Democrat Party are even worse than what we have today. In the Republican Party at least there is a little hope. Trump has shown the ability to take a stand and not back down. He can’t be bought by lobbyists or the Party elite. He hit the ground running with the immigration issue and was lambasted for it but he held his ground and now all the candidates in the Republican Party are talking immigration. He’s made a controversial statement concerning muslims and was attacked for it even by a candidate that introduced a bill to do virtually the same thing! But he has held his ground. He does have the legal grounds to ban muslims according to the 1952 Immigration and Nationality Act[9], another law that is not being enforced by either Party. He is talking about the things that are of importance to the people. Guts, fortitude and vision, three proven qualities of Donald Trump we have not seen in a candidate since Reagan.

Maybe the white pastors should jump on this train too.

Neocons Threaten to Start New Party if Trump Wins GOP Nomination

Posted on December 22, 2025 by | 3 comments

Third party will destroy Republican Party and ensure Clinton win

Kurt Nimmo | Infowars.com - December 22, 2025

http://www.infowars.com/neocons-threaten-to-start-new-party-if-trump-wins-gop-nomination/

On Monday the guiding light of the neocon faction of the Republican party, Bill Kristol, said a third party will be required if Donald Trump wins the GOP nomination.

Bill Kristol

Crowd-sourcing: Name of the new party we’ll have to start if Trump wins the GOP nomination? Suggestions welcome at [email protected]

Establishment Republicans are in disarray over Trump’s accession and make no secret of their willingness to abandoned the party and even cross over and vote for Hillary Clinton. A prominent neocon and senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, Max Boot, has denounced Trump as a fascist.

Max Boot @MaxBoot

Trump is a fascist. And that’s not a term I use loosely or often. But he’s earned it.

Boot is an official foreign policy advisor for Marco Rubio, the dark horse candidate who has courted casino magnate Sheldon Adelson. Adelson has spent hundreds of millions of dollars to influence the outcome of elections. “Rubio looks, walks, and quacks like a dyed-in-the-wool neocon,” writes the quasi-libertarian organization, Cato.

Jeff Greenfield, writing for Politico, notes the most vociferous Trump opponents hail from the neocon wing of the party. He believes “Trump running as a Republican could well face a third-party run—from the Republicans themselves… If you want to see the most sulfurous assaults on Trump, don’t look to the editorial pages of the New York Times or the comments of MSNBC personalities; look instead to the most prominent media voices in the conservative world: National Review, The Weekly Standard, Commentary and the columns of George Will and others.”

While third party candidates have fared poorly in national elections, the possibility of one capturing a key swing state like Florida would deny an establishment party candidate from taking the 270 Electoral College votes required to win the presidency.

The Constitution specifies that after a deadlocked election a vote must be held in the House of Representatives as a new session of Congress begins.

It is doubtful the neocon wing of the Republican party will be able to muster support to establish a third party powerful enough to beat Hillary Clinton. Democrats fear Bernie Sanders will form a third party after he is trounced in the primaries and this will pull a significant number of Democrats away from the party and give an advantage to the Republican candidate. However, fear of a Republican victory—especially the fear of a Trump victory—will undoubtedly bring a large number of Democrats back into the fold for the express purpose of defeating Trump.

In July 2014 The New York Times speculated the neocons may ultimately align themselves with Clinton. Boot remarked “it is clear that in administration councils she was a principled voice for a strong stand on controversial issues, whether supporting the Afghan surge or the intervention in Libya.”

In November Kentucky Senator and Republican candidate Rand Paul characterized Clinton as a neocon. “I think Hillary Clinton is a neocon,” Paul told MSNBC’s Chris Matthews.

“She supported the war in Iraq, in Afghanistan… If Hillary Clinton is president, we will be back at war in the Middle East.”

This is precisely what the establishment neocons hope for—a continuation of war in the Middle East and a revival of the Bush doctrine.

“We have done a tremendous disservice not only to the Middle East—we’ve done a tremendous disservice to humanity,” Trump said during the Republican debate. “The people that have been killed, the people that have been wiped away, and for what? It’s not like we had victory. It’s a mess. The Middle East is totally destabilized, a total and complete mess.”

DONALD TRUMP, ISLAM, TERRORISM AND INSANITY

Posted on December 22, 2025 by | 4 comments

NewsWithViews.com

Stop the World, I Want To Get Off!

Remember the old movie by this name? All I remember is the name, and maybe that’s because, so often when I read the news – for some time now - this title comes to mind.

If the refusal to learn from examples, from history and from study of comparative religions is so rampant today, spanning continents and nations, is that insanity? It appears as if the entire world has gone insane. The quotes from world leaders daily become less rational and less believable.

What is driving this insanity? A radical Islamic group is rampaging across the world, murdering innocent civilians because they’re too cowardly to take on armies and fight the way wars should be fought - soldier to soldier rather than terrorist to unarmed civilians. In the face of this danger, liberals put up a shield of “fairness to religions”.

This is either delusional suicide or a purposeful plot to destroy western civilization. To prove this, we could ask, “What if these two, or one of these, was nullified?”

If indeed, the plot is not purposeful, and Western leaders are not deluded, then it might go like the following.

When faced with a growing group of barbarians that declares itself a state based on Islam, whose goal is to subdue the world under their power, we would examine Islam under a lens of religion and find out if it is a true religion. What differentiates a power-hungry violent seventh-century ideology from a religion? The Encarta Dictionary defines religion as: people’s beliefs and opinions concerning the existence, nature, and worship of a deity or deities, and divine involvement in the universe and human life. “Beliefs and opinions” about a supernatural being seems to be the crux of the definition.

From the point of view of the American Constitution, and the raison d’être of America’s first settlers, this freedom of belief and opinion informed them and drove them to the shores of America. The intent was to build a country in which everyone could hold their own opinions and beliefs about their god and respect the rights of their compatriots to differ.

When the beliefs and opinions of someone’s god causes them to force their beliefs and opinions unto his brother through threat of death, the basis of religious freedom is eroded. It is no longer the national bedrock and that “religion” that has become a warring force ceases to be just belief and opinion. It has become a murderous force for domination of the stronger over the weaker – a totalitarian state. For America, that is not what the founders had in mind, obviously.

Is this so deep a discussion that US leaders cannot grasp it? How simplistic it is - a respect for the beliefs and opinions of others has been eliminated with the swipe of a sword. This has become an ideology which will sound the death knell of so-called “religious freedom” because it is no longer about freedom.

This is Islam, a murderous dictatorial ideology, not a religion worth respect and fighting to save. Once this is agreed upon, then the question becomes, “What to do with the followers and proponents of this ideology?”

Donald Trump caused a firestorm in early December by suggesting that the US screen out those who call Islam their religion and prevent them from entering the country. He bases this on the premise that a good percentage of these immigrants will be terrorists, and since we cannot determine which ones, and until we can determine which ones, it makes sense to prevent them from entering the country.

One’s freedom of religion ends where another’s rights to freedom of religion begin. There is no room in a free country for a group whose “Bible” (Koran) teaches that one religion – Islam – is superior to all. If one should innocently ask “How do we know that Islam instructs followers that it is a superior religion and for the sake of all people, they should accept the submission to Islam’s god?” Read the Koran. For those of us who cannot read Arabic, that would mean we need to read an English translation of the Koran. Here’s a teaser – I’ve done the basic work for you:

From Koran, Ayat 3:

19. The Religion before Allah is Islam (submission to His Will): Nor did the People of the Book dissent there from except through envy of each other, after knowledge had come to them. But if any deny the Signs of Allah, Allah is swift in calling to account.
20. So if they dispute with thee say, “I have submitted my whole self to Allah and so have those who follow me.” And say to the People of the Book and to those who are unlearned, “Do ye (also) submit yourselves?” If they do, they are in the right guidance, but if they turn back, Thy duty is to convey the Message: and in Allah’s sight are (all) His servants.
21. As to those who deny the Signs of Allah and in defiance of right, slay the prophets, and slay those who teach just dealing with mankind, announce to them a grievous penalty. (bolding by author)
22. They are those whose works will bear no fruit in this world and in the Hereafter nor will they have anyone to help.

This is just one of many such passages. The criticism of Trump’s call to bar entry to the Muslims included a claim that to do so would just increase their anger against the US for such discrimination against them. Liberals also fear that barring a group of immigrants based on their religion violates everything the US stands for. In this argument, the Muslims are cast in the same mold as the Pilgrims, and most ludicrously, the Jews fleeing the Nazis.

However, for those who know Islam, they realize that it is just the opposite scenario; it is the weakness shown by the appeasing pandering of the liberals which has increased the aggression of the Muslims. For appeasement is like adding fuel to the fire, giving it more energy and power. The Muslim always wants more, and appeasement proves to them they’re on the right track. So rather than dissuade, it encourages.

For those who don’t believe this, all one need do is look at Israel’s example. When the UN recognized the Jewish state in 1948, the Arabs who had stayed there during the war were given citizenship. Others moved in to take some of the many jobs available in the fledgling state. But the Arab states that attacked Israel the day after statehood was announced set up the scenarios that would challenge Israel for generations. Israel’s mistake was to appease the Arabs, rather than sending them packing. Such appeasement is still being forced on Israel by the UN, the US and Europe. Nothing has created as much conflict as this weak behavior, and Israel’s attempts to eliminate the terrorists from Gaza, Lebanon etc. have always been stymied by the US who starts yelling “restraint” every time complete victory looks possible for Israel.

Is it such appeasement and restraint which has planted the seeds for ISIS? There is plenty of evidence for this, and one would think world leaders would learn from this and start doing the opposite, answering fire with stronger fire, not holding back, but attacking the terrorists until they are too weak to prevail.

In a sane world, all the tenets of Islam would be evaluated, as would the current behavior of its followers. The most ludicrous proof this isn’t happening is the second reason for slamming Trump’s suggestion. This is the erroneous comparison of today’s Muslim migrants to the plight of the Jews fleeing the Nazis. Yes, Assad has murdered hundreds of thousands of citizens. Yes, Syrian women, children and elderly need a place to sit out the war. Normally, the young men might get involved in the fighting rather than flee, if they cared about saving the country. But if we don’t accept that, and we agree that young men also need a safe place, the most commonsense solution for all of these people would be the rather nice tents that sit empty in Saudi Arabia, used only for the pilgrimage to Mecca.

Thousands of tents with electricity etc.

This would not work only if we expect Syria to be destroyed and cease to be a nation after the war ends. In that case, we’re not talking about a temporary waiting area, but permanent or long-term residency until Syria’s status is settled.

Nevertheless, in regard to the comparison to the Jews, they didn’t have the option of joining the resistance and fighting the Nazis. The Nazis had a much bigger and more powerful regime than Assad, and there was no assistance from other nations as there is for the rebel factions in Syria. The Jews had no access to weapons; those who mounted a resistance were quickly destroyed. Syria’s resistance is much stronger and has much support, proven by the fact that they’ve withstood Assad’s forces this long.

But the foremost difference between the Jews and today’s Muslim migrants is that the Jewish immigrants were not intent on moving into America and attacking it from within or committing terror. There is ample evidence that suggests many of the Muslim migrants are indeed terrorists, and the government admits they can’t screen out the terrorists. The bedlam that is occurring in Germany is one indication that these migrants are nothing like the peaceful Jews who came after WWII. Many of them were professionals and had skills, while the Muslim migrants are largely uneducated.

If all this isn’t enough insanity, the irony is that this whole discussion is moot, because it is actually legal to forbid the entrance of would-be immigrants into the US. In 1952, Congress passed the Immigration and Nationality Act, which enabled the US to deny immigration to whatever group was deemed unfit. One of the criteria by which entrance could be denied is lack of willingness to assimilate. History tells us that Muslims generally do not assimilate, especially if not born in the US. We could look at Dearborn, Michigan, for an example.

The leftists in America are unleashing on the country the final nail in the coffin of what once was the strongest and most inspiring nation on earth. They’re blindly accepting a horde of barbaric uneducated, unskilled people who call themselves Muslims and who therefore follow the tenets of a totalitarian regime which doesn’t allow for democracy. A culture clash of mass proportions will ensue, and the blind followers of the god of political correctness will bear the guilt.

And Donald Trump will look like a prophet.

TRUMP IS RIGHT: STOP ISLAMIC IMMIGRATION

Posted on December 22, 2025 by | 1 comment

By Marilyn MacGruder Barnewall

NewsWithViews.com

THE IMMIGRATION AND NATIONALITY ACT OF 1952 PREVENTS MUSLIM IMMIGRATION INTO THE U.S. [Link]

St. Augustine once said: “He who is not angry when there is just cause for anger is immoral. Why? Because anger looks to the good of justice. And if you can live amid injustice without anger, you are immoral as well as unjust.”

Those Americans whose fellow citizens have been murdered by Muslim terrorists and who feel no anger are, according to St. Augustine, immoral and unjust. They are particularly immoral and unjust because their sympathies lie with the murderers, not the victims.

The issue of Muslim immigration became front and center in the media when Donald Trump released a statement to the press saying “Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our countries’ representatives can figure out what is going on.” He also made this statement during the Republican debate on CNN last Tuesday night.

Trump quoted a statistic from the Center for Security stating that 51 percent of the Muslims living in America believe they should be able to choose to be “governed according to Shariah.”

Trump then added to his statement, saying: “Shariah (law) authorizes atrocities (such) as murder against non-believers who won’t convert, beheadings and more unthinkable acts that pose great harm to Americans, especially women.” In case anyone hasn’t figured it out, that means they do not accept the Constitution of the United States as the highest law of the land and want to replace our laws and our Constitution with Shariah Law.

THE IMMIGRATION AND NATIONALITY ACT OF 1952

On June 27, 1952, the Immigration and Nationality Act passed. It revised the laws of immigration, naturalization, and nationality in America. The Act became Public Law 414. It prohibits entry into the United States by aliens who belong to any organization seeking to overthrow the government of the United States. That law remains in effect as of this date.

You can find the Immigration and Naturalization Act here. Click on the link, then scroll to Chapter 2, Section 212.

The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 makes clear the intent of Congress regarding aliens wanting to enter our nation. If you read Chapter 2, Section 212, you will find that if an alien seeking to enter America for whatever reason – I repeat, for whatever reason – belongs to any group or organization seeking the overthrow of the United States by “force, violence, or other unconstitutional means” that alien’s entry into America should be prohibited. A group which rejects our Constitution and seeks to replace it with Sharia law fits that definition.

Any “group or organization” includes religion. The Muslim faith is part and parcel of Sharia law which opposes the rule of law that flows from America’s Constitution.

This law is being ignored not just by the media, but by the man who claims to be President of the United States and his Attorney General. It is being ignored by the Republican-dominated Congress. It is not being ignored by Donald Trump. This issue would have never been brought to the public’s attention if not for Trump.

Donald Trump got it right when he said all Muslim immigration into the United States should be stopped until the citizens of America – those human beings the President of the United States is sworn to protect – can be assured that those who want to kill them can be prevented from doing so.

There is insufficient record keeping in Syria and Afghanistan and Iraq and Iran and all of the other Middle East Hell Holes like Libya and Pakistan and Egypt to successfully “vet” (research) residents of those nations. When they seek asylum in America, there is no way to identify with confidence Muslims with ties to violence prone Jihadist groups like ISIS. Intelligence officials have warned the President of this truth. He ignores them… and so does the Congress.

Trump was responding to the justified anger of the American people caused by the murder of fellow citizens. He was also responding to the justified fears caused by violent Jihadists whose Middle Eastern Islamic heritage has set them on a road of murderous intent. They want to kill American citizens because we do not believe in Allah.

All Muslims should be rejected from entry into America because the Qur’an, Sharia law and the Hadith require complete submission to Islam and Islamic law runs in opposition to our Constitution. All Muslims residing in the United States who will not commit to putting the Constitution of the United States ahead of Sharia law should be returned to an appropriate Qur’an-believing nation that is dominated by Sharia Law. It is best for them; it is best for us. They cannot reject Sharia law without rejecting their Muslim faith. They will not do that — nor should they be asked. To believe in their faith, they must reject the Constitution of the United States.

It appears the liberal progressive media has been conditioned to believe their stories are more important than the lives of the people who read them. Their liberal opinions are more important than truth or law. The media reacted as expected. They immediately attacked Trump for his uncaring, unconstitutional and “insane” attitude towards the peaceful people of the Middle East whose peaceful religious beliefs produce only a very small percentage of violent believers.

It only took two people to wipe out 14 lives of peace-loving Americans celebrating at a December 2, 2025 San Bernardino, CA party. The two Jihadists, one male and one female, seriously injured an additional 22 others. It only took a half-dozen violent believers in this peaceful religion to fly airplanes into the World Trade Center, killing 3,000 innocent Americans on 9/11/01. It took only one “peaceful” Muslim named Nidal Hasan, a U.S. Army Major and psychiatrist, to shoot and kill 13 and injure 30 others at Fort Hood in Killeen, TX. As his attack against military personnel began, Hasan shouted “Allahu Akbar!” but the Obama Administration refuses to name the attack terrorism. Instead, it was workplace violence.

There are from 5 to 8 million Muslims in America. If only 1 percent are Jihadists, that totals 50,000 potential terrorists with possible ties to ISIS. If 10 percent are Jihadists, that number increases to 500,000 potential terrorists. Trump is right to be concerned about the safety of Americans… especially women for whom Muslims have little or no regard.

We need to remember — and force our elected officials via the power of the ballot to remember — that though all Muslims are not terrorists, all terrorists are, thus far, Muslim.

Sharia law says all Muslims must commit and attest that the Qur’an is their life’s guiding principle. They must submit to Islam. They must submit to Islamic law – Sharia law. That is why immigrated Muslims do not integrate into the American system and why they begin demanding Sharia law from the time their feet touch American soil. They want prayer mats in airports (they got them). Muslim cab drivers want to be able to pick and choose which passengers are acceptable to them. They apply for jobs as truck drivers but do not want to deliver beer — though they knew their employer delivered beer when they applied for the job.

They must submit to Sharia law and its form of government – which is a subtle way of saying they want to overthrow the Constitution of the United States as the supreme law of the land. They run from the depravities and violence of their home countries and immediately want to implement the very laws that cause the depravation and violence they left behind.

Donald Trump is not only right according to American law. He is also right according to St. Augustine. Those who oppose him on this issue, seeking non-anger from the people over terrorist violence, are both immoral and unjust. After the media blow-up caused by Trump’s comments, prominent evangelist Franklin Graham, son of Billy Graham, stated:

“For some time I have been saying that Muslim immigration into the United States should be stopped until we can properly vet them or until the war with Islam is over.” Graham’s Facebook page continued: “Donald J. Trump has been criticized by some for saying something similar. The new Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan, said yesterday that he disagrees – saying that ‘such views are not what this party stands for and more importantly it’s not what this country stands for.’ Politicians in Washington seem to be totally disconnected with reality.”

If you, like Paul Ryan and the rest of Congress, haven’t yet figured it out: We are at war. We didn’t declare it — would our Congress declare war on anyone? The Jihadist terrorists declared war against us. If you haven’t yet figured it out, it is impossible to fight a war on the homeland of an offender without a homeland. The Caliphate (ISIL, as Obama prefers to reference the terrorist Muslims and their Caliphate) has land, but it hasn’t declared war on us. Only Jihadists have declared war; they are the ones who chant “Death to America” in the streets of Islamic population centers worldwide. And to make sure Congress, the media and the current Administration understand it: non-citizens do not have constitutional rights.

The statement “Not all Muslims are Jihadists but all Jihadists are Muslims” truly has significant meaning when viewed in this context. To them, life has no meaning. If your standard of living was as miserable as theirs, you might feel the same way. How miserable must the life of a woman be if she will gladly and willingly strap bombs on one of her children and tell him or her to go blow themselves up someplace where it will kill a lot of non-believers?

Sunni Muslims versus Shiite Muslims versus Kurd Muslims… they have been at war with one another since the death of Mohammed and arguments about who should run Islam arose.

All of the politicians running for the Presidency want to provide solutions to the ongoing battles of the Middle East but you don’t solve a war of several hundred years with a band-aid. It doesn’t seem to have dawned on anyone, but as long as they had leaders in power we in America would term tyrants, those leaders seemed to keep the various tribes from killing one another — and others around the world.

Perhaps it takes a Saddam Hussein of Iraq or a Muammar Gaddafi of Libya to keep Muslims from killing one another and protects the rest of the world from the violence that is so much of life in the Middle East.

Perhaps we should get rid of the Muslims who have immigrated to the United States and send them home to the violent social scenes they understand. Perhaps we should let the Middle East solve its own problems while we develop our own oil and gas resources and become a world exporter of the very products that have made the Middle East an important part of international commerce. Bring the price of oil down, down, down and kill the income stream that funds ISIS. Bankrupt them.

There is an answer… but it does not involve the Bush concept of nation building. These people are not temperamentally suited to freedom. They are too filled with hatred. Freedom requires discipline.

That’s not intended as an insult. As I watch the American people and their “give me something for nothing” socialist attitudes, I often think the same is true of about 45 percent of our people: They have insufficient discipline for freedom. Islam understands the discipline required for violence, not the discipline required for freedom.

Donald Trump, it appears, understands both.

ONE THING DONALD TRUMP CAN’T DO FOR THE ECONOMY PART 2

PART 2 of 2

“We were opposed to the Aldrich plan for a central bank. The men who rule the Democratic Party then promised the people who if they were returned to power there would be no central bank established here while they held the reigns of government. Thirteen months later that promise was broken, and the Wilson administration, under the tutelage of those sinister Wall Street figures who stood behind Colonel House, established here in our free Country the worm-eaten monarchical institution of the “King’s Bank” to control us from the top downward, and from the cradle to the grave. “

Yes, it was a conspiracy. Here is the full history of how the wealth of this nation was hijacked: The Creature from Jekyll Island - A Second Look at the Federal Reserve by G. Edward Griffin. And The Coming Battle, true history of our national debt.

By now most Americans paying attention are fully aware of the monstrous betrayal by Rep. Paul Ryan last week. (Marco Rubio skipped the vote; how convenient.) Unfortunately, I knew it was going to happen because the GOP majority in the Outlaw Congress has done it before; two of my columns:

GOP Incumbents Will Betray America End of Year, February 10, 2026

They did: Rape and Betrayal by the GOP: Let Me Count the Ways, December 16, 2014. “And, what did those incumbents who won their primaries and got reelected to the U.S. House do on December 11, 2014? The U.S. House of Whores voted to pass a $1.1 TRILLION dollar bill which will finance the government through September 2015 - including amnesty, all the programs underway to keep illegals here and Obamacare.”

Last week, smarmy Rep. Paul Ryan led the betrayal of the American people along with the U.S. Senate; the criminal impostor in the White House signed that massive 2,000 page bill into “law”. [Obama is a fake president who usurped the office, but no one seems to give a damn except those of us who believe the Constitution is the law of the land.] For this, Paul Ryan, professional politician and pimp to special interests received a standing ovation. Yes, he did.

That $1.1 trillion dollar rape funds the sickening hoax called Climate Change. Funds baby killing machine, Planned Parenthood. So much for pro-life conservatives who continue to sucker their supporters; increases the deficit by hundreds of billions of dollars in unconstitutional spending. John Boehner was in bed with Nancy Pelosi to get virtually every “free” trade treaty rammed through the Outlaw Congress. December 11, 2015, Ryan and Pelosi had dinner together. The fix was in no matter how many phone calls we the people made in opposition.

Before last week’s vote people should have seen it coming: Speaker-in-Waiting Paul Ryan Abandons Opposition to Big-Spending Budget Deal

• Paul Ryan Betrays America: $1.1 Trillion, 2,000-Plus Page Omnibus Bill Funds ‘Fundamental Transformation of America’
• Sen. Jeff Sessions: Omnibus a ‘Betrayal’, Increases Foreign Workers, Fully Funds Obama Immigration Agenda. By all means, keep bringing in foreign labor with 94 MILLION Americans out of work and 48 MILLION on food stamps. Cheap labor while Americans starve or don’t have enough money to heat their home this winter.
• Congress Provides $1.6B to Resettle Illegal Immigrants Arriving at Border Through 2018 (They are NOT immigrants. They’re illegal aliens.)
• GOP Budget OKs Billions for Wind, Solar Power Subsidies

• Spending Bill Spares Sanctuary Cities, Does Not Request Additional Assurances on Vetting Refugees
• More phony conservatives: House Freedom Caucus Makes Excuses For Ryan’s $1.8 Trillion Tax-And-Spend Plan
• Democrats Gloat, List Conservative Policies They Stripped From Ryan’s Omnibus
• [Rush] Limbaugh ranted, “Sanctuary cities fully funded. All Middle East immigration programs fully funded. All these have been exploited by terrorists. Sanctuary cities fully funded! All refugees fully funded. The release of criminal aliens, fully funded. Everything the Democrat, leftist, wet dream has just been paid for!”

• $1,100,000,000,000 Omnibus Increases Number of Unskilled Guest Workers
• Is anyone surprised? Paul Ryan Builds Border Fence Around His Mansion, Doesn’t Fund Border Fence in Omnibus

As I have written so many times: Build a fence 20′ tall, no problem. Rolling concertina wire from top to bottom. Forget California run by a bunch of socialists, communists and nose candy burn out, Jerry Brown. Use the National Guard in New Mexico, Arizona and Texas. Start with the ‘hot’ spots first and work in each direction. I have no doubt there are enough experienced National Guard to build such a fence. They’re already on the payroll so you won’t have massive labor costs from contractors, just pay for materials and housing costs if not close enough to a military base.

Do the governors of Texas, Arizona and New Mexico need the government’s permission to build a fence on their state’s sovereign soil? I say no, but I’m not a constitutional lawyer. Donald Trump has promised to go after illegals and amnesty as soon as he’s sworn in, but in the meantime, I think he should discuss this with the best legal minds (I can give him a few excellent references) and those three state governors. My state of Texas is being invaded every day with hundreds, sometimes thousands of illegals. Our governor is doing what he can with our Attorney General, but drastic action is needed NOW.

One constitutional provision of that bill. One: Congress blocks bailout of ObamaCare insurers in spending bill

GOP, Democratic Leaders, Hide Plan To Outsource 200,000 Americans’ Jobs: “House Speaker Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) and Democratic leaders have hidden a bipartisan plan in the 2016 appropriations bill that would outsource blue-collar jobs held by almost 200,000 Americans to lower-wage temporary foreign workers. The covert plan could also cut the salaries of many additional American workers, and force taxpayers to pay additional billions in welfare costs, so companies can boost their profits.”

For this voters gave Republicans a majority in the House in 2010. In 2014 they put even more “conservatives” in the House and Senate. Last week both the House and Senate sh*t right in the face of every voter who put their faith in them to uphold their campaign promises.

There’s a push to find a candidate to replace 100% pro-amnesty dirt bag, Paul Ryan, both as Speaker of the House and kick his backside out of Congress altogether: Movement to Primary Speaker Paul Ryan Out of Congress Picks Up Steam. The Wisconsin Tea Party is heading up the effort. I don’t know if it’s too late to find a candidate; filing dates. If you live in Wisconsin contact the Wisconsin Tea Party and help throw Ryan out of office. Watch out for vote fraud.

How is it possible to vote to spend $1.1 TRILLION dollars when the people’s purse, the U.S. Treasury, is overdrawn almost $20 TRILLION dollars? How do you write a check for $1.1 TRILLION dollars when your checking account is overdrawn almost $20 TRILLION dollars?

Why, the magical money machine called the Fed will keep supplying them with borrowed money. Use debt to fund more debt. The magical money machine will just keep printing worthless paper for which you, me, our children and grandchildren will pay the interest on forever.

Congress needs the candy store or they would not be able to continue borrowing to fund trillions in unconstitutional spending running the debt clear to Pluto. Without the central bank Congress would not be able to take America into never-ending, undeclared wars; the Viet Nam ‘era’ or ‘military interventions’ every time the economy takes a dive. Oh, you didn’t know? War is big business. The economy goes into a recession or depression, crank up the war machine. Business has been booming since 9/11.

The economy is imploding and nothing can stop another disaster that is rolling across this country- worse than 2008. 2016 will be devastating for tens of millions of Americans. The next president won’t take office until January 2017.

In 2007, former Congressman Ron Paul introduced a bill to get rid of the “Fed”. ZERO sponsors for the reasons above. The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 was and is an Act of Congress. Donald Trump cannot get rid of it using an Executive Order. However, Trump can do as Andrew Jackson did:

“The greatest party battle centered around the Second Bank of the United States, a private corporation but virtually a Government-sponsored monopoly. When Jackson appeared hostile toward it, the Bank threw its power against him. Clay and Webster, who had acted as attorneys for the Bank, led the fight for its recharter in Congress. “The bank,” Jackson told Martin Van Buren, “is trying to kill me, but I will kill it!” Jackson, in vetoing the recharter bill, charged the Bank with undue economic privilege. His views won approval from the American electorate; in 1832 he polled more than 56 percent of the popular vote and almost five times as many electoral votes as Clay.”

But…the reality of the situation is the GOP establishment, Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell and the list goes on - do not want Donald Trump to become president. They don’t want to give him the power of the bully pulpit and I believe will do everything in their power if he’s elected, to destroy him. Even if it benefits the Democratic/Communist Party USA.

There can be no economic prosperity in this country until the “Fed” is abolished. They create inflation, deflation, booms, busts, depressions and recessions. Learn the truth. Take the time to read those links above; over coffee or lunch.

There is no expiration date for the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. The thieving criminals who pushed it through made sure of that. It has to be abolished. Think that will happen with the current incumbents in the U.S. Congress?

If your member of Congress has done nothing to kill the cancer and continuing down the same road, what makes you think re-electing the same incumbent next year will get the job done? Abolishing the unconstitutional “Fed”, getting us out of all “free” trade treaties, abolishing Obamacare, get us out of the UN once and for all, abolishing unconstitutional cabinets - the most critical issues have been completely ignored by your incumbent and mine, who is retiring, thank God. Tragically, we the people are going to pay dearly in the near future.

No. It’s not the other party’s fault. The Republican and Democratic/Communist Party USA are two wings on the same bird of prey. Should Donald Trump get elected I have no doubt he will go after the cure on things like trade and hopefully, the head of the beast, the “Fed”. It’s also up to every voter to educate themselves on the disabilities of our monetary system and demand the only true solution: Abolish the Fed. I know there’s a vote next month on a bill from presidential hopeful, Rand Paul, to audit the “Fed”. A good thing, but the ultimate solution is to abolish the central bank. That won’t come without the dirtiest war this country has ever seen. That’s how high the stakes are and puppets like Jeb! will never turn on their masters.

Both the House and Senate are now gone until January. Nice paid vacations, again. They’re in your district right now. Call their offices and find out if they will be making any public appearances and go give them a piece of your mind - politely works best. Here’s the roll call vote in the House for that sickening 2,000 page omnibus spending bill; I doubt any of them read the full text. Here’s the roll call vote for the Senate. Thank them for betraying you and sticking the knife in what’s left of the middle class. For part one click below.

ONE THING DONALD TRUMP CAN’T DO FOR THE ECONOMY

Posted on December 22, 2025 by | 1 comment

PART 1 of 2

NewsWithViews.com

“Tell them (the South Carolinians who wanted to nullify the Tariff Act of 1832) that I will hang the first man of them I can get my hands on to the first tree I can find.” —President Andy Jackson

Donald Trump launched his presidential bid by going after destructive “free” trade treaties that have all but destroyed our most important job sectors: Industrial, manufacturing and agriculture. NAFTA being the first: NAFTA (No American Factories Taking Applications) according to Soviet traitor, CFR/Trilaterialst, Henry Kissinger: “What Congress will have before it is not a conventional trade agreement but the architecture of a new international system…a first step toward a new world order.” July 18, 2026

If you missed this in one of my columns, I would like you to take a look at this map published in the Denver [Com]Post, August 30, 1992: A New North America. Note page 2 and the comment about NAFTA. That deadly agreement was the prelude to the equally traitorous North American Union - something Ted Cruz’s wife is very familiar with: Ted Cruz again battles ‘globalist’ charge against wife - Senate-race opponents spotlighted her CFR membership

While that “agreement” was being pushed by the hands that own and direct the White House and the Outlaw Congress, many of us tried to warn, but few paid any attention. It is a blue print to break up our country in favor of regions comprising a world government. Right there for the whole country to see but who did not see because NAFTA was being sold as a way to bring “cheap” goods to America. It’s a tragedy the American people pay more attention to the premiere of the new Star Wars movie than solutions to stop the hemorrhaging of jobs in this country:

IT’S WAR: STOP THE TPP AND TAFTA

“The first of the job and sovereignty killing treaties so innocently called an agreement was NAFTA. Official title: North American Free Trade Agreement. In reality: No American Factories Taking Applications. That unconstitutional tool of the global elite was pushed through by globalist Newt Gingrich with enormous help from Rush Limbaugh. Marxist Bill Clinton signed it into “law” in December 1993. Then began the massive destruction of the three job sectors that made America the most prosperous nation on the face of this earth: manufacturing, industrial and agriculture.

“A bill was introduced in 2011 to finally get us out. It got zero attention from the old media. Forget FOX. Too many Americans pay little to no attention to bills sitting in the biggest whore house on the planet- except for hot button issues like abortion; it went no where. There were too few of us to make it happen.

H.R. 29: To provide for the withdrawal of the United States from the North American Free Trade Agreement

“NAFTA was also supposed to usher in a new age of prosperity among the American people as thousands upon thousands of good-paying jobs were to be created through the increase in trade surplus that never quite came to fruition. As you can imagine, just the opposite happened. Each and every year more and more jobs are outsourced to Mexico where labor is incredibly cheap and environmental concerns are a mere afterthought. The raft of jobs outsourced to Mexico forced American workers into direct competition with one another and drove down wages for all.

“Now Americans are forced to compete, not only with one another, but also with Mexican workers who are willing to work for much less than the average American. In the U.S., the average factory worker makes roughly $18 per hour while his Mexican counterpart earns just $3 per hour. This has encouraged a “race to the bottom” in which American companies are frequently relocating production facilities across the border. Iconic American companies such as Coca Cola, Ford, RCA, General Motors, General Electric and Nokia have all opened up assembly plants in Mexico. In fact, GE employs 30,000 Mexicans in 35 factories in the country.

“This race to the bottom has had a devastating effect on America’s manufacturing base. Pre-NAFTA, the U.S. had 16.8 million people employed in the manufacturing field. By 2007, that number was down to just 13.9 million. That accounts for over 20 percent of America’s manufacturing jobs over the past 14 years. Those good-paying manufacturing jobs have been replaced by low-paying service sector jobs with little or no benefits.”

“In 2000, the Outlaw Congress had the chance to get us out of GATT/WTO. The effort was killed by John Boehner and Nancy Pelosi. Since the impostor president has been squatting in the White House, John Boehner has given Barry Soetoro aka Obama every damn “free” trade treaty or “agreement” he’s pushed for; sleeping with America’s enemy, Johnny boy. Do have another glass of the red wine you’re so fond of.

“On June 9, 2005, the House voted 338-86 to reject a motion to withdraw congressional approval of the 1994 agreement establishing the WTO and governing body, GATT.

“One book that stands out on this issue is America’s Projectionist Takeoff 1815- 1914: The Neglected American School of Political Economy by Michael Hudson. I invite you to read the comments about Hudson’s book; it really is a must read. What made us a power house has been destroyed since 1994 and yet, every two years the American people who have suffered so badly because of all those treaties continue to reelect the same scum bags back to the House of Representatives and Senate who have taken us to poverty with more in the works. “

Again in the 2013-2014 session, another attempt was made: H.R. 156 (113th): To provide for the withdrawal of the United States from the North American Free Trade Agreement. The bill was introduced by a Democrat. It had ZERO sponsors before it died. Not one damn Republican signed on to a bill to get rid of an “agreement” that has caused so much destruction to our economy and our fellow Americans. Why? Because the GOP is owned by the anti-American jobs U.S. Chamber of Commerce and big corporations - same as the Democratic Party, just add Hollywood. Support for that bill by the American people was virtually non existent again because they either knew nothing about it, don’t care or are too under educated to even understand the issue. There was no help from the media, including FOX.

“This Act (the Federal Reserve Act, Dec. 23rd 1913) establishes the most gigantic trust on earth. When the President signs this bill, the invisible government by the Monetary Power will be legalized.” former U.S. Congressman Charles August Lindbergh, Sr.

The one thing Trump cannot do as president is abolish the head of the beast that has siphoned of the wealth of we the people: The unconstitutional “Federal” Reserve. The privately owned banking robber barons who continue to loot this country with the full blessing of the Outlaw Congress. It was the issue of the central bank which drew my attention 25 years ago prompting me to give up my career, a million dollars in paychecks and so much time with my family giving speeches, writing and being a guest on radio shows thousands of times. What I was learning was sickening. I wanted to do what I could to educate anyone who would listen so I published my 45 pg booklet, Why A Bankrupt America, in February 1993 and sold 1,653,000 copies at cost until I retired it in mid-2004. Since then many millions now know the truth about that “federal” bank which is no more federal than Federal Express.

The damage done to the people of this country since the “Federal” Reserve Act was passed on December 23, 2025 is staggering. It’s impossible to cover this critical issue in one column but it takes time to learn and understand it. You can’t solve a problem until you know how it started.

Either the American people take the time to understand what’s killing our economy - besides those treaties - or they will continue buying the same old election BS from Republicans about smaller government! lower taxes! as well as the same socialist/Marxist policies pushed by the Democrats. While there are hundreds of books on the subject, most I have read, along with thousands of articles on the Internet, below are resources I feel can educate anyone fairly quickly, so do share with friends and family:

• The Federal Reserve System: A Fatal Parasite on the American Body Politic
• The Dollar - The Constitutional Guarantee of the Value of our Money & Wealth by Tom Selgas. An excellent, powerful slide presentation. Scroll down until you see ‘Lawful_Money_presentation.pptx - 2014-03-29’ click and hit open file.
• A Cross of Debt
• The Forgotten Role of the Constitution in Monetary Law, Texas Review & Law of Politics
• Banking and Currency and the Money Trust, Charles A. Lindbergh, Sr.
• A Primer on Money, Congressman Wright Patman

Congressman McFadden’s Speech - Fill text at link

The Federal Reserve - A Corrupt Institution

“Mr. Chairman, we have in this Country one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Banks, hereinafter called the Fed. The Fed has cheated the Government of these United States and the people of the United States out of enough money to pay the Nation’s debt. The depredations and iniquities of the Fed has cost enough money to pay the National debt several times over.

“This evil institution has impoverished and ruined the people of these United States, has bankrupted itself, and has practically bankrupted our Government. It has done this through the defects of the law under which it operates, through the maladministration of that law by the Fed and through the corrupt practices of the moneyed vultures who control it.

“Some people who think that the Federal Reserve Banks United States Government institutions. They are private monopolies which prey upon the people of these United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers; foreign and domestic speculators and swindlers; and rich and predatory money lender. In that dark crew of financial pirates there are those who would cut a man’s throat to get a dollar out of his pocket; there are those who send money into states to buy votes to control our legislatures; there are those who maintain International propaganda for the purpose of deceiving us into granting of new concessions which will permit them to cover up their past misdeeds and set again in motion their gigantic train of crime.

“These twelve private credit monopolies were deceitfully and disloyally foisted upon this Country by the bankers who came here from Europe and repaid us our hospitality by undermining our American institutions. Those bankers took money out of this Country to finance Japan in a war against Russia. They created a reign of terror in Russia with our money in order to help that war along. They instigated the separate peace between Germany and Russia, and thus drove a wedge between the allies in World War. They financed Trotsky’s passage from New York to Russia so that he might assist in the destruction of the Russian Empire.

They fomented and instigated the Russian Revolution, and placed a large fund of American dollars at Trotsky’s disposal in one of their branch banks in Sweden so that through him Russian homes might be thoroughly broken up and Russian children flung far and wide from their natural protectors. They have since begun breaking up of American homes and the dispersal of American children. Mr. Chairman, there should be no partisanship in matters concerning banking and currency affairs in this Country, and I do not speak with any.

“In 1912 the National Monetary Association, under the chairmanship of the late Senator Nelson W. Aldrich, made a report and presented a vicious bill called the National Reserve Association bill. This bill is usually spoken of as the Aldrich bill. Senator Aldrich did not write the Aldrich bill. He was the tool, if not the accomplice, of the European bankers who for nearly twenty years had been scheming to set up a central bank in this Country and who in 1912 has spent and were continuing to spend vast sums of money to accomplish their purpose.
