Death by Indifference & Incompetence

Are You Not Radicalized?

Oct 06, 2024

I’m letting this one fly early because (a) I finished before midnight which is rare and (b) I’m angry…like green-eyed gamma rays angry.

Hulk's Gamma Powers Have a Mind-Bending New Ability

What’s happening in North Carolina right now, in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, is nothing short of one of the greatest scandals in American history. It’s a devastating failure by the federal government. Bureaucratic incompetence and indifference on a catastrophic scale have resulted in the needless deaths of hundreds of Americans.

This isn’t hyperbole; it’s reality. Kamala Harris should lose the election in a landslide for this disaster alone. It’s that bad. And yet, almost no one in the media is covering it. They’ve chosen to ignore one of the worst natural disasters in our nation’s history, while thousands are missing or dead, and the damage estimates are already creeping past $50 billion.

It’s impossible not to think back to the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. One week after Katrina hit, you couldn’t turn on the TV or open a newspaper without being bombarded by wall-to-wall coverage.

The New York Times had critical stories on the front page, above the fold. The media was relentless in their coverage of George W. Bush’s response to Katrina. And let’s be honest, Bush didn’t handle it perfectly. But he responded within two days and deployed resources at 10 times the level we’re seeing in North Carolina. Yet, now?

Crickets. No mention of Helene on the NY Times front page, no endless CNN coverage about FEMA’s bungled response. No 24/7 coverage of the victims and devastation.

Why? Well, of course you know why. Because there’s a Democrat in the White House, and the media is playing defense for their DNC clients. What we’re witnessing isn’t just media bias—it’s calculated and willful ignorance…and it’s evil. It’s a transparent attempt to cover up a disaster of epic proportions because it doesn’t fit the preferred narrative.

This disaster—the most expensive natural disaster in U.S. history and the 2nd largest loss of life—is unfolding, and what are we getting from the Harris/Biden administration? Nothing.

FEMA has thrown up its hands and claimed they’re out of money, with much of their budget reportedly spent on resettling illegal migrants. Imagine that. American citizens, dying and displaced in the wake of Helene, and FEMA can’t respond because the funds are gone. This is the state of our government—completely out of touch with its own people, prioritizing the needs of others over its citizens.

$200 Billion to Ukraine. $450B+ to illegal immigrants every year.

And $750 to American citizens who have had their lives destroyed.

In the ultimate tone deaf statement, Secretary of State Blinken lauded the Administration’s efforts in delivering $157 Million dollars to displaced civilians and refugees in….«checks notes» Lebanon.

As thousands of Americans are dead or missing and receiving no aid from the Federal Government, our dear leaders are lauding their efforts in a Hezbollah governed state 7,000 miles away.

Not only are the federal government’s response efforts woefully inadequate and pathetic, but there are credible stories that FEMA is actually interfering and preventing civilian, state and local rescue efforts.

I’m not surprised, but I am deeply disgusted. I’ve seen this before. This is the same betrayal I felt during COVID when the government lied to us, locked us down, and then had the gall to demand we inject experimental, barely-tested vaccines into ourselves and our families to be able to keep our jobs or socialize in public.

“Trust the science!”, they said, even as Pfizer and the FDA refused to release the data for 75 years. It was during that time, just like now, when I fully realized: our government doesn’t care about us. It’s not just incompetence. It’s indifference, even hostility, toward the very people they claim to serve.

After the COVID mandates, after the BLM riots, after the disasters in Hawaii and East Palestine, now this. How many times do we have to go through the same thing before we wake up? How many more Americans will be radicalized by this experience, realizing that their government has failed them in the most fundamental ways?

These aren’t just failures; they’re crimes. They are betrayals of the American people on a scale we haven’t seen in modern history.

Look at the list: the Russia collusion hoax, the Hunter Biden laptop coverup, the lies about COVID and the safety of treatments, the unconstitutional mandates, the blatant censorship and violations of the First Amendment, the open borders invasion, and now FEMA money going to resettle illegal immigrants while Americans die in North Carolina. What in the world are we paying taxes for? What is the point of government if it can’t even exert the most minimal effort or competence to protect its own citizens?

These aren’t just bad policies or unfortunate mistakes. These are the actions of anti-human globalists who have declared war on their own citizens. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: “they hate you”. This government—this regime—is not on your side. It’s not looking out for you or your family. It’s actively working against your interests, eroding your freedoms, and dismantling the very fabric of American society.

And who’s being held accountable? No one. Joe Biden will likely die of old age before he faces any consequences for his administration’s treasonous actions.

But Kamala Harris and Alejandro Mayorkas? They should be jailed for life for this. For spending FEMA money on illegal immigrants instead of Americans, for the deaths and suffering of our fellow citizens.

This is the death of American competence, the death of a government that once, at least in theory, worked for its people.

But there’s still one last chance to turn the tide. We have one final opportunity to elect leaders who will put America first—who will fight for the people and restore this nation. We can elect Donald Trump and a cadre of the best and brightest—Vivek Ramaswamy, Elon Musk, RFK Jr., and others—and see a resurrection and reinvention of government and the social compact.

This is the America First movement, and it’s our last hope. Because if we stay on this current trajectory, we won’t make it to the end of the decade as a functioning country. Hell, we might not even make it to the 2026 midterms.

Our forefathers tarred and feathered politicians for offenses 100 times less severe than what we’re suffering through today. They understood that accountability wasn’t just an option—it was a necessity. If we don’t demand that same accountability now, we are doomed.

The choice is clear. We can take back this country, or we can watch as it continues to crumble under the weight of corruption, incompetence, and globalist indifference. The clock is ticking, and time is running out. If we don’t act now, we won’t have a country left to save.

If you consider yourself a patriot and an American, and you haven’t gotten at least one other friend to sign up to vote, then get moving. There are no bystanders in a war of attrition. Register, get friends and family registered, and vote early. Because I can guarantee there will be more ‘disruptions’ on the day of the election intentionally designed to disenfranchise our side. This election, we leave nothing to ‘chance’.

This is where I stand right now: I’ve said enough, and I pray to God I’ve done enough. I don’t know how many more of these letters I’ll write, especially as the election approaches. I’m no Paul Revere, but I’ve tried my best to sound the alarm and wake up my fellow Americans to the reality that we are living under a hostile, occupying regime—a government that no longer remotely resembles the one our Founding Fathers fought to create.

We are witnessing the deliberate destruction of the American way of life. And the first step in reclaiming it is acknowledging that truth. The second step is rising up—together—and pushing back with everything we’ve got under the law. This is our moment, our time to act. The longer we remain silent, the deeper the darkness grows. But united, we are a force unstoppable, a people unbreakable. The fight to restore our nation starts now, and it starts with **us**.

We owe it to our children, to our ancestors, to every American who has sacrificed for freedom. Stand up, push back, and fight for what’s right. America is worth it.

And here’s some additional details and commentary on the storm by A Midwestern Doctor that’s worth a read.

VP Debate

The other big news of the week overshadowed by the Helene catastrophe was the VP debate and as expected, JD Vance put on a masterclass.

Let’s be clear: Vance was a home run pick by Trump. Smart, competent, and utterly persuasive, Vance displayed the kind of no-nonsense leadership that has been sorely missing from American politics. He wiped the floor with Walz, and anyone watching could see it.

From the start, Vance was on point, articulating a clear and coherent vision for America’s future. He was composed, confident, and didn’t fall into the usual political traps despite once again running into an embarrassingly biased moderator panel composed of two midwit shrews spewing regime propaganda.

Walz, on the other hand, stumbled through the night, weighed down by his own baggage—much of which he brought upon himself. And while Vance was respectful and focused on the issues, he also took a ‘high road’ approach and didn’t spend energy or time exposing the gaping holes in Walz’s character and record.

While the above disappointed me as a partisan, it’s a smarter move as this is likely the first time that some of those mystical ‘undecided’ voters might be seeing Vance unfiltered for the first time.

Let’s talk about a few of the highlights that were insta-memed all over Twitter: Walz made the laughable claim that border crossings were down since Donald Trump left office. This has to be the single biggest whopper ever told on a national debate stage. Walz might as well have said the sky is green and he has more championship rings than Michael Jordan. There isn’t a single person alive other than Walz who believes that nonsense (except perhaps the two midwit shrews moderating who didn’t bother to ‘fact check’ that fib).

Walz also likely ‘mis-spoke’ when he proudly declared that he was “friends with school shooters.”

Yes, you heard that right. In a debate where millions of Americans tuned in, Walz made the most absurd and tone-deaf statement possible. How on earth does someone think this is a badge of honor? Vance, without needing to say a word, let Walz’s comment speak for itself. The look on his face said it all: disbelief, followed by the realization that his opponent had just done half of his job for him.

But that wasn’t Walz’s only blunder. During the debate, he claimed—yet again—that he was present in Tiananmen Square during the infamous massacre. It’s a story he’s trotted out before, and like many of his other stories, it’s been debunked. Walz wasn’t anywhere near the massacre. This man has a documented history of lying and the debate was no exception. Remember his stolen valor scandal? Walz falsely claimed a higher rank and exaggerated his military service, disgracefully lying about his contributions to gain political points. It’s a history of deceit that continues to follow him, and for good reason.

The biggest question mark of the night, though, was one that Vance didn’t even need to push too hard: Why has Tim Walz visited Communist China over 30 times? This is not a normal pattern of behavior for a U.S. politician. What exactly was Walz doing during these visits? The optics alone are troubling, and it raises a very real question: Is Walz a CCP asset? How can a high school teacher afford to visit China over 30 times (and better yet, why)? It’s a line of inquiry that Vance, wisely, left for another day, but it’s clear to anyone paying attention that this is an issue that demands answers.

Vance, on the other hand, avoided the petty mudslinging. He stuck to the high ground, showcasing his commitment to America First principles. His focus was clear: reinvigorating the economy, securing the borders, and protecting American values from foreign threats—both external and internal. He demonstrated exactly why Trump chose him as his running mate. Calm, collected, and razor-sharp, Vance came off as the embodiment of competence and leadership.

At the end of the night, it was clear: Vance had won the debate. Tim Walz survived, but anyone familiar with his track record should understand that be it his stolen valor lies, his adoration and enabling of the BLM riots, or the snitch lines he set up during Covid or his suspicious ‘trips’ to Communist China - he is someone fundamentally unfit to hold office, like his running mate. In this battle of ideas and integrity, Vance didn’t just win—he dominated.

Vance’s debate performance not only galvanized the America First base, but it also likely appealed to those in the middle, offering a clear alternative to the tired Obama-Biden-Harris approach.

Here’s Vance’s closing statement if you missed it. It’s worth the 2 min watch.

If we can get 2024 right and return Trump to the White House, the next eight years hold incredible promise. Just imagine a Vance-Vivek ticket—that’s about as strong and competent a team as you could hope for.

Travesty

The case and sentencing of Tina Peters is a glaring example of how our justice system is being weaponized to silence those who dare to expose potential election fraud. Peters, a courageous former county clerk from Colorado, was targeted and ultimately convicted for doing what many Americans believe is the right thing—protecting election integrity.

Her crime? Preserving election data that she feared would be deleted in a cover-up of irregularities. Instead of being hailed as a whistleblower, she was prosecuted and sentenced in a way that sends a chilling message to anyone looking to question the 2020 election results or any future elections.

Judge Matthew Barrett condemned Tina Peters for supposedly "undermining election integrity" before sentencing her to an astonishing NINE YEARS in prison.

In what world does safeguarding election records from potential deletion equate to undermining election integrity? How does preserving critical data result in a criminal charge, let alone a near-decade-long sentence? Under what legitimate circumstances would election records ever need to be deleted in the first place? None of this adds up, and that’s precisely the point.

This case isn't about justice; it’s a calculated effort to suppress those who question the system.

When a system is set up to deliberately prevent any type of transparency, accountability, or authenticity, it’s safe to say that system is designed to be deliberately fraudulent on its face.

“It’s a feature, not a bug” as we Bitcoiners like to say.

Like many of the J6 political prisoners, the timing and handling of her case seem designed to prevent people from asking tough questions about our election processes. By punishing Peters so severely, it’s clear the establishment wants to make an example out of her, discouraging anyone else from stepping forward with concerns about election transparency. Peters wasn’t out to undermine democracy; she was trying to safeguard it. But instead of investigating her claims, the system focused on silencing her, effectively protecting the very institutions that should be scrutinized.

This travesty of justice isn’t just about one woman—it’s about the broader effort to prevent future efforts to expose election fraud. If we can’t trust our elections, and if those who try to ensure they are free and fair are persecuted, how can we trust that our voices are being heard at all?

President Trump’s first act should be to pardon Tina Peters. That is, if a sane appellate court hasn’t overturned this travesty by the time he’s sworn in.

*******

Here are a few more insights this week on the widespread election fraud that Democrats appear to be orchestrating to once again manipulate the outcome of our elections. The overwhelming and still-growing body of evidence since 2020 continues to support these concerns.

What I’m Watching and Reading….

Good letter from American author and lifelong Democrat M.C. Armstrong on X:

To @TheDemocrats ,

This is my career suicide note, but it’s also a thank you from someone who is done with careerism. I’m a lifelong member of your party and I’m voting for Donald Trump. Why? It’s not just your industrial-scale censorship or your endless wars or the fact that you disenfranchised millions of Kennedy voters through lawfare. If that were all I had, it would be sufficient, in terms of conscience and rage, but there’s more to this story than anger. Your hatred and censorship has taught me to admire @realDonaldTrump and to love my fellow working-class Americans, and for that I thank you.

This vote is for all the traumatized people who have been canceled and banished just for saying no to the establishment. This vote is for the surveyor, the farmer, the HVAC man, the nurse, the hairstylist, the Deadhead, the veteran, and my fellow adjunct professors who have told me their stories about being bullied by the Democrats in their friends and family and their colleagues at work. This is for the young Black woman in my class last year who, on the day of Kamala Harris’s visit to campus, said, “You’re going to hate me, Dr. Armstrong, but I’m not going. I’m voting for Donald Trump.” Why would she think I would hate her for the way she votes? What has happened to our country?

Somehow, Donald Trump has changed my mind. Where I once saw a cartoon white supremacist, warmonger, and narcissist, I now see the man who renegotiated NAFTA and the only president in the twenty-first century not to start a new war. Where I once saw the pal of the neocons, I now see a man who has awoken from his slumber and disavowed Dick Cheney, George Bush, and John Bolton, even as my own party embraces these “men.”

Why has the greatest entrepreneur of my generation (@elonmusk) risked his career to side with Trump? Why has the most consequential grassroots environmentalist of my time (@RobertKennedyJr ) sacrificed friends, family, and reputation to side with “The Orange Menace?” Why has the most courageous peace activist of the twenty-first century (@TulsiGabbard) left our party? Because Tulsi, Bobby, and Elon see what I see. Donald Trump is resilient and he’s risking his life to change the fate of our nation. Trump is transforming the Republican Party into the party of peace, free speech, and the working-class. He has converted George Bush’s billionaire boys club of Big War, Big Ag, and Big Pharma into a party that cares about public health and embraces regenerative agriculture.

Now I don’t think the GOP is all the way there yet, but they’re clearly the party that embraces dissent, and dissent—brave speech—is the fuel for evolution. So, for the first time in my life, I’m voting Republican. In the name of peace in Ukraine and free speech here at home, I’m casting my vote, as a Kennedy Democrat, for Donald Trump.

Oldie but goodie. This is from 5 years ago but it’s so damn good it’s worth a rewatch. Naval Ravikant on Joe Rogan.
