A LESSON FROM CHANUKAH



If Chanukah teaches us anything it should be not to let the government tell us what we have to worship.

Society does not get it's morals from government. Government get it's morals from the people. And the people get their morals from our Judea-Christian values.

That is the core principle that guided our Founding Fathers and the creation of our Nation.  If we forget this, like the Nation of Israel, America will be overtaken by it's enemies.

If America fails to heed the warnings of Washington and Lincoln and others, America will fall just as the mighty Babylonians and Egyptians and Greeks and Romans all did.

2020 Vision


I enjoy taking a stab at predictions for the New Year. Like goal setting, it's something I try to do at the end of every year. Here's my stab at 2020.

2020 is going to be very different.  I forsee a number events and developments which will make 2020 dramatically different than 2019, or even the last decade.

  1. We are going to have a rip roaring economy.  The best GDP growth in 20+ years. Inflation will be moderate thanks to several items below.
  2. Economies around the world are going to take off, especially in Asia, India and the U.K. This will be a major multi-year expansion which will lift trade and the USA economy, and coincide with the Administration's new trade deals.  The USMCA will start to pay big dividends as well.  USA farmers are big winners, but they certainly are not alone!
  3. Faith in God is going to make a comeback.  The unborn finally gain some rights. End-of-times focus fuels a revival in Christianity. There will also be continued  growth in Satanism!  
  4. USA energy efficiency and production are going to achieve extraordinary improvements.  Breakthroughs, discoveries and consumer behavior are going to combine to provide great promise for meeting our energy needs for the rest of the century in cleaner ways. Recycling and waste management will be a positive factor. 
  5. The debate and concerns over climate changes dramatically for the better. 
  6. Labor force productivity is going to take off. 
  7. Labor force participation will rise measurably and add significantly to the GDP.
  8. Business capital investment will accelerate and increase markedly, contributing to the GDP. 
  9. The USA will make enormous investments in infrastructure.  This will pay big dividends in energy conservation and labor force productivity in the long run. 
  10. Household income, wealth and spending all shoot up. This will result in a very active consumer that is making substantial durable goods purchases. Big ticket purchases will be big. The consumer will contribute to the GDP expansion in a major way.
  11. America is finally going to make significant inroads to fixing health care.  This will come through big changes on multiple fronts including but not limited to delivery systems, personal accountability, new treatment methods, cost structure improvements, liability reforms, approaches to insurance coverage, etc.
  12. There will be largest shakeup of the Democratic party in history as findings from the Durham investigation rocks Washington DC.  A new star will arise to lead the party. Many long time politicians in the party will be replaced. 
  13. Great turnover in Congress. Lots of incumbents in Washington from both parties will lose their seats in Congress or choose to retire. Term limits have a chance of passing.
  14. Donald Trump will win reelection by the largest landslide since 1936. Such a victory is going to give Trump the strongest mandate any President has had in a over a century. He will continue to remake the courts, drain the swamp, cut government programs and waste and put through his  legislative agenda.  He will fill another Supreme Court Justice, but probably not until 2021
  15. Distrust in the FBI, DOJ, CIA and FISA court will cause an historic nonpartisan review and important reforms. 
  16. With a new government formed in Israel, the Trump Administration will put forward an historic and vastly different approach to peace between Israel the Palestinians and other Arab nations. And it will work!  
  17. Iran is further isolated.  A Revolution is coming.  An Israel and USA military action will damage Iran's ability to be a nuclear military threat or to use advance weapons. This action will be much more than an "escalation." 
  18. The USA Military and Pentagon will dramatically rethink how the USA approaches defense and our role in being the world's police force. Significant and lasting strategic and tactical changes will involve new wespons technology and require new training.  
  19. The USA takes big steps forward in resolving immigration and gun violence. The border wall, cooperation with Mexico and deportations will collectively result in steep declines in illegal crossings and a drop in USA crime by illegal aliens.
  20. Black swans may appear including major environmental disasters!

FACING DEEP REGRET

This week's Torah parashat from Genesis is powerfully suiting. In parasha Vayashev we learn about Reuben's profound deep regret over not standing up more to his brothers who wanted to kill Jacob's favorite son Joseph.

Joseph's 11 brothers threw him into a pit and they let him be sold into slavery in Egypt.

Benjamin was deeply haunted over letting himself be ruled by the mob. Reuben's guilt and shame stayed with him his entire life.
Reuben couldn't live with himself.  So he left for Egypt to retrieve Joseph and bring him back to his father Jacob. So determined was Reuben to address his wrong deed that he said to his father,
"Kill my two sons if I do not bring him back to you." Genesis 42:37
Take a lesson Democrats.  You will regret trying to destroy the PRESIDENCY.

Yesterday's impeachment is not only a hateful Partisan attack on Trump. It is a grotesque abuse of Constitutional power and a horrendous assault on the Office the Presidency.

The concept of a "President" with balances versus a "Monarch" (King or Queen), was our Founding Fathers greatest creation.

As Providence would have it, a wild boar didn't kill Joseph as his brothers lied to their father. And little did his brothers know, Joseph's greatest days were ahead of him.

Like Reuben, Democrats will come to regret their actions for the rest of their life. And Trump's greatest successes are ahead of him.
Democratic leaders Pelosi, Schiff, Madler, Waters and others have evoked God in the performance of Sin.  That is BLASPHEMY!
Providence will protect the President of America whose faith is in God.

CREATING A VACUUM IN AMERICA


DEMOCRATS HAVE DRIVEN THEIR PARTY OFF THE CLIFF.  With the House's vote for Impeachment they've done it. There is no backing up.
"The dangerous thing about hate is that it seems so reasonable." Francious de la Rochefoucauld
Does anyone seriously think that 70 million Americans are going to let lying clowns Pelosi, Schiff and Nadler get away with impeaching President Trump?? If it weren't such a serious matter it would be laughable.
"Hate is all lie, there is no truth in hate." Kathleen Norris
What Pelosi, Schiff and Nadler have done with their 3 year effort to impeach President Trump will go down in history as the 2nd most egregious abuse of political power ever.

I said the 2nd most, because the 1st most egregious abuse of government power will be announced by AG Barr when US Attorney Durham is ready to present the findings and charges of their criminal investigation into the predication for operation Crossfire Hurricane, aka "Spygate."

Spygate and the House's bogus impeachment are part & parcel of the same evil hate based power hungry attack on Trump's Presidency.  The two sinister efforts work in tandem to try to achieve what Democrats could not achieve in the voting booth in November 2016.

Democratic leaders think they have put a permanent stain on Trump which will enable them to defeat Trump in 2020. But what they have done is the direct opposite. They haven't proven Trump's guilt, instead they have validated Trump's claims.

With hate deep in their hearts, the Democratic Party leaders have brought sin unto themselves.
"Hatred is a deathwish for the hater, not a lifewish for anything else." Audrey Larde
In the process, the Democratic leadership has sealed their own fate. They have virtually ensured the re-election of Trump in 2020 by the largest margin since 1936. There is a good chance of losing the House as well.

Democrats sought to take away Trump's power, but ultimately they will be increasing his power and his mandate.

What America is witnessing is the destructive power of hate on the hater.

In destroying themselves, rather than President Trump, the leaders of the Democratic Party, and I might add the Liberal Fake News, have done is CREATE A VACUUM!
"Hatred ,which could destroy so much, never failed to destroy the man who hated and this an immutable law." James Baldwin
Once the destruction that will come about after AG Barr and US Attorney Durham have made their case, there will be a giant hole in America. A hole that needs to filled which will act like a vacuum that will draw in new leadership and bring about a rebirth in America.

GOING OUT ON A LIMB


Sharing observations and making predictions puts oneself out there.  It exposes us to criticism and judgments. It is risky. In a sense, it is going out on a limb.

I have a tendency of going out on a limb.  In this post I will crawl out a bit further on limb I am already on.

Climbing out on a limb is what we are supposed to do in life. Climbing out on a limb is an especially human attribute.  After all, isn't that what we do when we make goals, or start a business, or go on a risky adventure of nearly any kind. Don't all such affairs begin with a mental commitment to a go out on limb? Besides, climbing out on a limb is how one gets a better view.

If you have been following my posts on Facebook or my blog you know that for a while I have been saying that there was a "RECKONING" coming concerning the political affairs of our country. A few weeks ago I said that it had begun.

In addition I have alluded to something pending that is much more cataclysmic with my repeated tag line:

0101■2020
DESTRUCTION and REBIRTH.

I have been waiting for events I expect to unfold before giving an explanation about what I mean by that ominous phrase. Without those events being public knowledge what I have to say would seem preposterous and even ludicrous.

Jonah Ben (son of) Amittia, the man I am named after, said something preposterous to the people of Nineveh around 2700 years ago. Jonah declared to the great and powerful city of the Assyrians that their entire city and all it's inhabitants would be overthrown.

One the lessons I learned from studying the Book of Jonah is to follow my truth. "MY TRUTH" is literally the meaning of the Hebrew name of Jonah's father Amittia.  As the Apostle John said, "And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." (John 8:32.)

But I digress ... so I'll get back to my predictions.

Soon my predictions won't be preposterous - they will be the logical conclusion drawn from the facts available.  That is because there will be a paradigm shift concerning politics and our government that Americans have never experienced before.

Future events will shatter beliefs that Americans are supposed to have about our Government, our political system and our Nation's most powerful and influential people and institutions.  Credibility of the mainstream media will be obliterated.

The IG Report is the tip of the iceberg.  Things will soon get much worse for the criminals, Democrats leading the impeachment effort, the Deep State and the Mainstream media.

From the IG report we now know that there was a criminal conspiracy to defraud the FISA Court, frame Carter Page and spy on the Trump campaign. But the IG report doesn't speak to the motivation and actions which lead up to this.

When AG Barr said he disagreed with IG Horowitz conclusions about a "lack of bias" he said it was because Horowitz lacked information which he and Durham had.

With that remark AG Barr confirmed my expectations and foreshadowed a huge new dimension concerning "Spygate" that will be revealed when US Attorney Durham comes forward with the findings of his criminal investigation.

I am now convinced that AG Barr and Attorney Dunham have information on what predicated the spying and the parties involved. That information will ROCK THE WORLD.

As bad as it is that parties in the FBI criminally defrauded the FISA court, the revelations that I expect to be revealed by Durham and Barr are far worse.

When the announcement of the findings of Durham's investigation are revealed the implications are going to dwarf the impeachment!  The facts to be revealed, and the crimes that will be prosecuted will show the impeachment to be the political charade it is. In fact it will turn the impeachment upside down and make it absurd on it's face.

Democrats will be so embarrassed about the impeachment they started that I would not be surprised to see the House move to cancel the impeachment in hopes of stopping a trial that will be devastating for them in the Senate. That in itself would be an unprecedented and stunning turn of events. But it would be a futile if it happens because it will not stop the wheels of justice which are underway.

What's to come will bring into doubt the trust Americans have in the highest levels of our government and the elected and appointed officials who run our country. It will rock the Democratic party and American institutions to the core!  This will be the greatest test of our Constitution in American history.

If events unfold as I expect, they will set up a dynamics which will have startling effects. One such effect leads me to offer the following prediction.

President Trump won't only be elected to a second term. He will be elected by the highest electoral college and popular vote margin since the 1936 election of FDR. Trump's mandate will have profound implications for the next quarter century at least.

But I have gotten ahead of myself. What will happen between now and the election is equally significant.  For those predictions you'll have to wait until next month.

HATE IS ON TRIAL

You can believe what you want, but let's be honest with one another about what is really happening in the House.

Make no mistake, this is not a bipartisan act. This is a highly Partisan act. The HOUSE will NOT impeach Donald J Trump. The Democrats will. 

Try as they may to couch their motivation in claims of their Constitutional duties, we all know their motivation is a deep hatred which Democrats and the mainstream media have nurtured for three years.

Their hatred is "covert" and has been pursued in covert ways since Hillary, the CIA Director Brennan and the DNC initiated and paid for the Steele Dossier. According to Jewish Law, Covert hatred is the more vicious form of hate. 

According to all rabbinic authorities one who hates, one acting out of enmity, is ineligible to serve as a judge in cases involving his enemy. They may not even be a witness. Hateful Democrats are acting as prosecutors, witnesses and judges in order to impeach the duly elected and loved President of the United States.

Pelosi convulses whenever she is accused of hating the President.  Is there even a Democrat who believes her denial?  If she is praying for the President it is out of the Left side of her mouth, and most likely because she is all too familiar with the evil acts being committed against him.  If Pelosi is praying for the President it is in hopes to save her own soul.  Deliverance is the Lord's.

It is blatantly obvious that Adam Schiff, Jerry Nadler, most of the Democratic witnesses, the Squad, Rep. Al Green, and so many others deeply hate Trump. 

Frankly, I don't think anyone questions whether Democrats who are leading the impeachment process hate Trump. This has been all about impeaching the Mother F'er since November 2016.  The last election simply gave Democrats the votes they needed in the House.

The Democrats banked on winning the House. What they didn't bank on was Republicans holding the Senate!  And the Senate is where this impeachment will meet it's end.  But much more is at stake.  The soul of our Nation is at stake.

The question at this point is whether the leaders of the Democratic party have committed the severe sin of gratuitous hate (שִׂנְאַת חִנָּם) with the act of impeachment.  

According to the Talmud gratuitous hatred is the most vicious form of hatred. Gratuitous sin is equal to the three paramount sins of idolatry, fornication, and murder!!

The Democrats are trying desperately to prove that their hatred and their impeachment was not gratuitous.  Sadly, Schiff, Nadler, Pelosi and other vocal Democratic leaders and the mainstream media have many believing that this impeachment is justified. 

It may appear that Donald Trump is on trial, but I think what we shall soon all come to realize once the trial begins in the Senate is that it is the Democratic party that is on trial.  Hate is on trial. 

The Democrats have everything at stake. They have risked it all. If the evidence proves that their hate was gratuitous they may lose it all.  Prominent Rabbis view gratuitous hate as reason the Second Temple was destroyed -  as punishment for this sin.

The RECKONING has begun.

A CRESCENDO OF HATE

"PEOPLE HATE ABOUT OTHERS WHAT THEY FEAR WITHIN THEMSELVES."

What Hillary, Biden, Brennan, Pelosi, Schiff, Nadler and others leading the efforts to overthrow Trump, by every means possible, fear is being exposed for abuses of power and corruption that they know they are guilty of.

I used to think that Trump Derangement Syndrome was a static state with various degrees of affliction.  But now it is apparent that it is chronic and progressive - it advances. In other words, if not treated it grows increasingly worse.  Now I  understand why ... hate increases as the risk of what we fear increases.

Two fears are increasing. The first fear is the more common and public.  It is the fear which Democrats have that their candidates for President are terrible and that Trump is superior.  In short, it is the fear that Trump will win re-election.

The second fear is limited to a more narrow group of Washington insiders and Deep Staters.  This is the greater and more dangerous fear and hate!  This is also the group that has the most to fear from Trump's re-election!!

The average public is unaware of the extent of Washington corruption. But Trump has targeted them - he uses two terms to describe two different but related groups: "The Swamp" and the "Corrupt Fake News."  Both groups are fighting back hard.  They are fighting for their lives. Their level of fear and thus their hate is increasing as their sensed risk of being exposed is increasing. Those feelings are peaking at this time because they are starting to realize that the RECKONING has begun and their DESTRUCTION is coming.

As AG Barr, US Attorney Durham, IG Horowitz, Rudy Giuliani  and others get closer to exposing the real crimes of corruption and abuse of power in Washington, the "Haters" are growing increasingly fearful and therefore hateful. As they do, their actions become more extreme and their behaviors more bizarre.  Witness Biden and Pelosi!!

The same can be said of the Corrupt Fake News as they are exposed for their cover ups and failure to cover the views and accusations of Conservatives.

One way to understand TDS and how it effects people is to learn about the psychology of hate.  Here are some key points. What follows in this post is purely psychology with NO political connection intended by the professionals:

1) Behavioral researcher Patrick Wanis explains, “Hatred is driven by two key emotions of love and aggression: One love for the in-group—the group that is favored; and two, aggression for the out-group—the group that has been deemed as being different, dangerous, and a threat to the in-group.”

2) Fear of Ourselves - According to Washington, D.C., clinical psychologist Dana Harron, the things people hate about others are the things that they fear within themselves. She suggests thinking about the targeted group or person as a movie screen onto which we project unwanted parts of the self. The idea is, “I'm not terrible; you are.”

This phenomenon is known as "projection," a term coined by Freud to describe our tendency to reject what we don’t like about ourselves.

Psychologist Brad Reedy further describes projection as our need to be good, which causes us to project "badness" outward and attack it: "We developed this method to survive, for any 'badness' in us put us at risk for being rejected and alone. So we repressed the things that we thought were bad (what others told us or suggested to us that was unlovable and morally reprehensible) — and we employ hate and judgment towards others. We think that is how one rids oneself of undesirable traits, but this method only perpetuates repression which leads to many mental health issues.

3) Lack of Self-compassion - The antidote to hate is compassion — for others as well as ourselves.

Self-compassion means that we accept the whole self. “If we find part of ourselves unacceptable, we tend to attack others in order to defend against the threat,” says Reedy. “If we are okay with ourselves, we see others’ behaviors as ‘about them’ and can respond with compassion. If I kept hate in my heart for [another], I would have to hate myself as well. It is only when we learn to hold ourselves with compassion that we may be able to demonstrate it toward others.”

I am well aware that people who vehemently disagree with me are apt to think I fail to see how this explanation of "projection" can be turned on me. And that I am one who is projecting.  Such is the futility of today's debate. Everyone is accusing the other of the same thing. Round and round we go.

Coming Back To Today's Politics in my opinion:
The hate is reaching a crescendo with the impeachment trial.  The Senate hearings and AG AG Barr will start to truly expose the reasons for the fears.

Coinciding with the impeachment hearings will be the release of the IG Report as well as findings from US Attorney Durham's investigation.

It is about to get totally TDS crazy!

The RECKONING has begun.
