A Ted Cruz Missile Right in the Nutz
First off let me say that I don’t have an axe to grind against Ted Cruz. As far as Republicans go, the Texas Senator is about as good as it’s ever going to get; the guy has like literally memorized the entire Constitution, or something like that. But folks, you’re never going to vote for Republicans hard enough to turn things around, even conservative Republicans like Cruz…NEVER.
There’s a mountain of proof that this is the case, and to illustrate let’s look at something seemingly minor that Senator Cruz did recently which went mostly unnoticed and demonstrates the utter futility of relying on the Grand Ol’ Party as a force that will fight for you.
Dear dead guy who undermined everything the Republican Party stood for, We’re going to miss you and your hundred-million-dollar donations.
If you're like me and you've always wondered why you vote Republican and nothing ever changes, and why a right-wing agenda is NEVER advanced, well Senator Cruz’s condolences to a mega-donor, who’s assumed room temperature, explains everything and is the perfect encapsulation of present-day partisan politics.
You see, the GOP is controlled by a few ultra-wealthy goblins. And they are why the GOP never conserves anything even though it is an organization that has billions of dollars, millions of volunteers and has been around for a 167 years. It could have the Left on the run if it wanted to.
Republicans have control of the majority of Governors, Attorneys General, State Delegations, and the U.S. Senate. They’ve had all these things for many years. Question: Does it ever feel like it? Do you ever feel like you’re winning?
The Republican Party even had control of all three branches of the federal government from 2017-2019 and produced nothing for their grassroots! No useful legislation at all! They wouldn’t fund the wall; hell, they could’ve taxed remittances to Mexico and made Mexico pay for the wall. They didn’t. DACA wasn’t stopped, birthright citizenship was never addressed, sanctuary cities were left in place, legal immigration was greatly increased as we were hit by wave after wave of caravans of illegals during the Trump presidency.
Even on their classic bread-and-butter issues of taxes, controlling spending, and reducing the size of government, the GOP delivered nothing. If they couldn’t do it then, when will they ever?
One huge reason: Donors. The GOP is run by a cabal of globalist elites. It’s a small club, and you ain’t in it! Sheldon Adelson, the casino pimp, gave over 200 million dollars to the GOP. So, who is this guy who made Ted Cruz so sad when he died?
“In November 2017, the Adelsons also made it clear they weren’t on board with Steve Bannon’s insurgent efforts against establishment Republicans. “They are supporting Mitch McConnell 100 percent,” a spokesperson said.”
In case you were wondering why the swamp was never drained and it got everything it wanted.
“As a Republican, it’s my view that efforts to complete immigration reform should be led by our party. Some on the outer fringes of the GOP may disagree, but the truth is we are humans first and partisans second. Frankly, the Democrats don’t have a monopoly on having hearts.”
“Let’s start by instituting a process in which all undocumented immigrants receive permits to legally work here. Let’s provide them with the opportunity to get driver’s licenses and bank accounts.”
“Let’s face it, the United States does not have a process—real or imaginable—to deport 11 million people from within our borders. Those who favor the deportation of every person here illegally must understand that this position simply is not realistic…Poll after poll shows the majority of Americans support immigration reform, including a pathway to citizenship. So, let’s put the political nitpicking aside and deal with the situation.”
This is the largest donor in the history of the Republican party saying this!
Is it any wonder why none of Trump’s immigration agenda was ever enacted?
By the way, the idea that Americans want immigration reform (amnesty) is a conspiracy theory that was debunked by the election of Donald Trump in 2016.
“It would be inhumane to send those people back, to send 12 million people out of this country. … So we’ve got to find a way, find a route for those people to get legal citizenship.”
Adelson is an especially telling example of the self-interest of businessmen on immigration. His newspaper, Israel Today, the largest newspaper in Israel, is wildly patriotic (pro-Israel) on immigration (and everything else).
Israel Today has trumpeted the success of the 15-foot razor-wire fence along Israel’s 140-mile border with Egypt, triumphantly noting last August that, for the first time, “no infiltrations were recorded from the Egyptian border.””
Walls and an ethno-state for me but not for thee.
If protecting Israel from “infiltrators” is good for them, why is it not good for America? This from the man who established The Adelson Family Foundation - “The primary purpose of the Foundation is to strengthen the State of Israel and the Jewish people.”
Adelson and his foundation that lives on in his name will annihilate any chance of a right-wing agenda to be carried out by the Republican Party for the foreseeable future. Remember, he was just one of many mega-donors who have similar agendas. Take a look:
Breitbart - Billionaire hedge fund managers Paul Singer and George Soros define the ideological boundaries of the globalist opposition to the Trump agenda. Neither hesitates to use his substantial financial resources to stymie the populist conservative economic nationalist policies of the “Make America Great Again” coalition.
One of the largest donors to the GOP, Paul Singer, teamed up with George Soros to stop Donald Trump’s America First agenda. It wasn’t even hidden; it was done right out in the open. Also, it was Paul Singer’s Washington Free Beacon that funded GPS Fusion to conduct opposition research on Trump in hopes of keeping him from getting the nomination. Obviously, the Trump of 2016 represented a serious threat to this mega-donor who doesn’t want the Republican party to be a serious opposition party.
Along with George Soros and the left-wing Ford Foundation, Paul Singer gave hundreds of thousands of dollars to the pro-open borders National Immigration Forum (NIF). The NIF later set up and funded the sham grassroots Christian group “Evangelical Immigration Table” to create the illusion of widespread conservative Christian support for mass third-world immigration.
Gee, I wonder why the Republican Party was never serious about getting control of our borders?
Paul Singer, the Republican mega-donor, also gave you legalized gay marriage.
“Nine months before the GOP convention in Cleveland, a well-funded effort to change the Republican Party’s official opposition to gay marriage is getting big-money backing and vastly expanding its scope, hopeful that the Supreme Court’s recent decision to legalize same-sex marriage will push conservatives to abandon a platform plank they once embraced eagerly.”
The Republican Party is owned by people who don’t share your values (to say the least) and it should be obvious why they never advance a right-wing agenda… because they are paid millions not to!
Jennifer Natalya Pritzker born as James Nicholas Pritzker.” The world’s only known transgender billionaire.
“The Pritzker clan has long been decidedly socially liberal and Democratic—the governor and the former commerce secretary are Jennifer’s first cousins—and Chicago itself is deep blue. But the colonel is blood red. A top Republican donor, she has written big checks to the likes of John McCain, Jeb Bush, Mitt Romney, and Donald Trump, for whom she voted. “For the Pritzkers her transitioning wasn’t that eventful. They’re all cool with it. It’s like, pass the salt,” says a family friend. “Her Republicanism—that’s more difficult for them.””
This “guy” is a top Republican donor?
Now I’m starting to figure out why nothing is ever “conserved.”
“Her gifts include $6.5 million to the Program in Human Sexuality at the University of Minnesota; $5.99 million to Palm Center, an LGBTQ think tank, for a study on trans people in the military; $2 million for the world’s first chair of trans studies, at the University of Victoria, British Columbia; $1 million to Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago for a Gender and Sex Development Program; and $50,000 for the first trans-study course at the University of Toronto.”
What does it take to normalize degeneracy? Apparently, all it takes are some multi-million-dollar donations and a Republican Party who’s paid to throw the fight.
Now comes the terribly sad part of the story; however, there is hope if you will take action.
I’m going to ask you to take part in an exercise. As I said earlier, the Ted Cruz post where he celebrates the life of the usurper Sheldon Adelson is the perfect encapsulation of present-day partisan politics.
Go to the link on Facebook and just read the comments with the knowledge of who Adelson really is and you will see how American politics really works.
You have one leftist after another and another accusing Ted Cruz of inciting sedition and insurrection and demanding he be impeached and tried for treason immediately before he can “destroy our democracy!” In truth, Ted Cruz poses zero threat to these people at all; it would be nice if he did, but he and his donors are happy enough to let Republican voters be de-platformed, demographically displaced, and discriminated against by a hostile government. And Ted Cruz has no way or will to stop it. That is the truth.
Now, what is profoundly sad and frankly unforgivable is the way that good but purposely misinformed conservatives are manipulated. Read the comments. You’ll see hundreds of conservatives who see “their guy” Ted Cruz under attack. So, naturally they jump to defend Cruz AND Sheldon Adelson! They don’t know that Adelson was to the left of Barrack Obama on immigration, that he is a Neo-con who supported endless Middle Eastern wars, that he was about to bring casino gambling to Texas (that would have meant hundreds-of-thousands of foreign HB1 visa holders coming to Texas to work in those casinos.)
Sheldon Adelson worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure Republican voters never got what they wanted but here they are defending him because of Ted Cruz, who isn’t stupid, and don’t kid yourself… Ted Cruz knows better.
That is the perfect microcosm of modern partisan politics: low-info Leftists attacking traditional Americans with unhinged vitriol and traditional Americans staunchly defending Republicans who have no plans to help them in any way. Partisan politics is the hamster wheel of futility that we are expected to waste all our time and effort on until the clock runs down and there aren’t enough of us left to mount a real defense.
The Republican Party has ceased to be an effective vehicle for traditional Americans to organize under in order to protect ourselves. A political party should be about a collective seizure of power and then advancing the will of its members regardless of what its enemies say. We have a righteous and noble mission to do just that.
Politics is force. It is will to power. In order to save ourselves we are going to have to use the force of government against our enemies just as they have done to us for decades. We will have to become illiberal. Conservative free speech will never be protected unless the government steps in and forces private companies to respect our rights. Republicans will never do that, ever. Pharmaceutical giants are killing Americans at an alarming rate with opioids, and the Republicans did nothing when they could have saved hundreds of thousands of their own voters.
Pornography is an epidemic among our young people, warping their behavior and destroying their chances to have a normal family, and the Republican Party will never do anything about it. For us to stop pornography, it would have to be oppressed by the government just like it is in Israel. Yes, the government would have to step in and enforce community standards like governments have since the beginning of time, but the modern Republican Party will never lift a hand to protect our children.
Children are being chemically castrated and permanently damaged in the name of transgender rights, and the Republican Party will do nothing to stop it. They are even incapable of even saying that deranged men should stay out of women’s restrooms and out of women’s sports.
What elected Republicans will do is to point out the latest outrage, fund-raise off of it, and do nothing that would stop it. Just vote harder for us, they will say.
The very idea that 74 million America First Trump voters can only politically organize themselves under the hapless Republican Party is a very stupid conspiracy theory. One that nobody should believe and one that will be debunked.
We have to take ourselves and as many people as we can convince off of the hamster wheel of futility that is partisan politics. “Owning the Left” does nothing to stop them; pointing out their hypocrisy doesn’t stop them; organizing a real movement outside of the GOP will. A coalition of traditional Americans with purpose and solidarity will stop them. We have to raise ourselves up from the Dems vs. R’s, Blue Guys vs. Red Guys paradigm. The constant futility of this moronic, fake political fight does nothing but keep you discouraged, which is exactly what it is designed to do.
Look at those conservative commenters on that post again. They are frustrated and misinformed. Literally none of them has the right take on the situation. Stop watching Fox News (and the like) because it keeps you mentally invested in this fake and futile fight. The same is true of conservative talk radio. Tell your friends and family to do the same because it isn’t mentally healthy for us to continually watch what is essentially a scripted wrestling match and see what is presented as “our side” always losing (especially since our side is paid by hostile billionaires to lose on purpose!)
We will have to abandon traditional political parties for ones that have a “street presence.” We have to build a party/movement that can literally protect its members from the violence of the Left.
Political power will follow when enough of us are willing to do this, and it will have to be done in person not just online.
It’s sad that it’s come to this, but anyone with half a brain knows it to be true. We need something more than just a political party; we need a social movement. As our society breaks down and becomes more dysfunctional, there will be a greater need for local networking. Be prepared to meet the material needs of your community through community service in order to build goodwill. With goodwill will come numbers and with numbers, true political power will follow. The key to doing this will be solidarity with no petty in-fighting.
We have the God-given right to self-determination. They fear us for good reason, and that is because we are stronger than they are. Millions who are fed-up with this garbage, and all they ask for is a chance to fight back. They need a party willing to do so. For that party to form will require no tricks, no lying, no schemes. All it will have to do is provide leadership and give people what they already want… allow people to do what they already want to do. You don’t need some gimmicky marketing campaign; you just have to provide people with an avenue to act in their own self-interests, something their soul is already telling them to do anyway.
Times are going to be different, and so are we. Be ready to act and to act with solidarity. There are millions of us, and we are the storm, a storm that will not be stopped.
