Bleeding Edge

Now, why should anyone care about the midterms?

Maybe because we are addicted to the blood sport called Politics?

Or maybe because we are at a critical junction as a country?

Or even because we find ourselves at a hugely important time in our history?

Or especially because it is these days when literally every single vote cast in November can drastically and dramatically change the country we perceive as America today?

Either way you see it — these times are the ones that make grown men cringe…

But don’t take my word for it, as this video comes from my personal story of surviving an assassination attempt as a Politician while giving a speech inside Microsoft HQ in Redmond WA — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_75RzVfbAM

Instead, you can listen to another survivor who was shot with a Kalashnikov rifle, by a deranged Socialist Democrat following the violent dictums of Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders — to kill off your political opponents…

These beacons of violence and incivility tend to exist only for their own gratification, and for their persoanl self aggrandizement, and lust for money & power, and not because they want to offer any kind of usefulness or public service to our Constitutional Republic, or in order to serve our country and our people whom they despise as they call them deplorables or worse…

And if you want to hear an opinion about our current state of affairs from another Senator – here is Lindsey Graham, who advises us about which way to go as a country.

Senator Lindsey Graham urges voters to reject the Democrats’ “Mob Rule” in the midterm elections, and he is advising all Americans to act in this way to uphold their country by refraining from reaching out to the demented Dems: “Please don’t give these people power.”

US Senator Lindsey Graham said that the midterm elections simply come down to mob rule. He was saying that if voters elect Democrats, they’ll be rewarding mob violence and evil behavior by the party of the DemonRats who care far more for the animals of the MS13 than for ordinary Americans.

The South Carolina Republican Senator will indeed be campaigning in 13 states over the course of the next 12 days, ahead of the November election, and he speaks openly about the errant attacks against men who choose to be conservatives.

Mr. Graham said that if the Democrats get any sort of power — they will move to impeach the president and Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh. That is if they gain control of Congress — whereas if Republicans keep control or augment it, they will surely continue to keep the economy moving forward and will defend the United States border and territory…

He went on: “If you elect Democrats to run the house, you know exactly what you’re going to get.”

Mr. Graham said. “You’re rewarding mob rule … don’t give these people power.”

He pointed to the harassment of Republican lawmakers like Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Sen. Ted Cruz, who were both shouted at and driven out while eating with family in normal everyday restaurants with their wives, and Sen. Susan Collins who has faced death threats during the Kavanaugh confirmation process.

“Name one Democratic leader who stood up to these thugs,” Mr. Graham challenged.

Now methinks that this is why we should all vote for Independents and Conservatives this November because we cannot reward the mob violence behavior and the incivility that is the only solution offered by the Democrats.

And this was seconded by Lindsey Graham as he travels across the United States spreading the gospel of “Getting Along” as Americans ought to be doing…

And now, let us hear the personal story from another House Representative who like me is a survivor of a recent violent political assassination attempt, Congressman Steve Scalise.

Steve Scalise represents Louisiana’s first Congressional district and serves as the Republican majority whip. On June 14, 2017, he was shot by a deranged Bernie Sanders supporter while practicing with fellow Republicans for a Congressional baseball game. He nearly died, and underwent multiple surgeries before returning to the House on Sept. 28, 2017, to bipartisan applause.

“When Eric Holder, other Dems call for violence, that’s a direct threat to our democracy” –By Rep. Steve Scalise

Speaking in New Hampshire, former Attorney General Eric Holder says his decision about 2020 will come in early 2019, but for now he simply advocates violence — “kick them in the teeth” speaking against his political opponents while following the line that came down from Hillary Clinton and from the rest of the Democrat party leaders.

This summer, California Democrat Rep. Maxine Waters called on her supporters to harass cabinet officials. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Tuesday that you “cannot be civil” with members of the Republican Party. And Wednesday, videotape was released of former Attorney General Eric Holder telling a Democratic audience at a campaign rally in Georgia on Sunday that they should “kick” Republicans when they perceive them as “going low.”

Despite the continued reports of politically motivated threats or violence, Democratic Party leaders have worked to keep this anger burning and incite even more harassment and violence.

Beginning with my own near-death experience at the hands of a deranged shooter who sought to assassinate a baseball field of Republicans, there is a growing list of violent or threatening actions taken against conservatives by Democrats.

Ashley Kavanaugh, Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s wife and his daughters received multiple credible threats.
Dana Loesch, NRA spokeswoman, received death threats against her children on Twitter.
Rep. Diane Black, R-Tenn., received such a threatening phone call that the man has now been indicted.
Jamie Gardner, wife of Sen. Cory Gardner, R-Colo., wife, received a text of a beheading after the vote to confirm Justice Kavanaugh.
Several Republican Senators had their personal information, including home addresses, posted to Wikipedia for threatening purposes by a Democrat House staffer.
Congressman Clay Higgins (R-La.) received threatening phone calls that led to a man’s arrest.
Sen. Rand Paul, R-Kent., and his wife Kelly Paul have both received credible threats that have led to arrests.
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and his wife, as well as White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee-Sanders, were chased out of restaurants.
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen was confronted by protesters and harassed out of a DC restaurant.
Rudy Peters, a Republican California Congressional candidate, was nearly stabbed while campaigning.
My office has continued to receive threats against my life that have led to arrests.
A female pro-life activist was violently assaulted by a man that has now been found guilty of eight counts of assault for this and similar incidents.
And this list goes on. The threats and the violence have not let up and instead of seeing my Democrat colleagues calling for an end, there have been calls for their supporters to keep going, to do even more to threaten Republicans.

In America, we win battles at the ballot box, not through mob rule or intimidation.
As a survivor of a politically motivated attack, it is tragic to think this is an acceptable state of political discourse in our country. I refuse to stand for this and I will continue to call for an end to it. A healthy, strong democracy is not possible if anyone lives in fear of expressing their views.

If this is going to stop, it must start with Democratic leaders, who need to condemn, rather than promote these dangerous calls to action.

In America, we win battles at the ballot box, not through mob rule or intimidation. While it’s clear many Democrats refuse to accept the election of President Trump, if they want change, they need to convince people with their ideas and actually win elections, rather than call for violent resistance, harassment, and mob rule.

As I see, working in Congress every day, it’s possible to agree without being disagreeable and address political differences in a civil manner. That’s an example leaders need to continue to set.

Instead, when Democratic leaders like Eric Holder call for violence, that is a direct threat to our democracy.

I hope he and others think long and hard about the world they are creating and the impact they are leaving on this country.

As the oldest democracy, our country has long been heralded as the freest country in the world. It doesn’t feel so free if anyone lives in fear for holding or expressing a differing opinion.

Let’s end this violence and return to civility before someone else gets hurt.”

That was Steve Scalise’s take on these elections.

Wise words.

As for me….

Most people I know are sick & tired of politics, and only want to see babies and puppies on social media, grill and chill on the weekends, and live life as if they deserve it all. After all, people went crazy in 2016, and many Americans are just fed up with all the fighting.

I get that.

I really do.

However, there is also this thing called ‘reality’.

Reality is coming in November. The outcome of the midterms will decide the course our country runs. What the people who are fed up with politics don’t realize is that our midterms are just as important as the 2016 Presidential election. The times we are living in now are similar to a time in America’s history not long ago. A tipping point if you will, when Americans were divided.

In 1776, brave men drafted the Declaration of Independence, declaring America’s freedom from an oppressive tyrannical government. What most people do not realize is that we as Americans are again at that level of importance in our history, and our willingness to engage and stand up and fight, or our apathy from our daily lives of luxury will define us as the generation who either saved America or let her die.

When we all reflect on that awe-inspiring letter declaring that all men are created equal and we are endowed certain unalienable rights by our Creator like Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, we feel inspired by those men. Their courage to risk their lives in order to stand bravely in the face of the most powerful monarchy of that day, and pick a fight with their King that would become a war that would change everything gives rise to our own courage.

Their willingness to sign that letter, revealing their very identities as traitors to the Crown, and refusing to obey the King’s overbearing demands is an act that many Americans nod their heads in agreement with and imagine they would do the same if they lived in that day.

Here’s the cold hard truth for you. Most of you wouldn’t do a damn thing.

You would not have signed that precious document that led to America’s freedom. By signing their names, these men knew what they were risking. Being a traitor to the crown was a crime that was punishable by death, and not a quick one at that.

The executioner would first cut their stomach causing their bowels to fall out. Then hang them, but not for long enough to kill them. Next, they would be drawn and quartered, ripping their limbs from their bodies. Lastly if they were still alive, the executioner would chop off their head, finally ending their horrific agony. The brave men that signed that fateful letter to the King understood and still risked everything.

However, many of the colonists were not that brave of heart, just as it with many Americans today.

If we had lived in that day, most of you would have been annoyed with the young men who threw the tea into the Boston Harbor. Maybe you enjoyed your tea-time and the break it gave you from your work day. It took months for the tea to arrive in your ports. How reckless it was of those young men to disrespect the King and the company who had shipped the tea. You would have been irritated that now you had to wait for the next shipment that could be weeks to months away.

You might have also argued with your neighbors and co-workers who annoyingly discussed how they wanted to stand up against the King. You had a good life in America now, and a war would disrupt everything, especially business and making money. All the discussions and the fighting about how to handle the King’s policies would be stressful to you and you just want to enjoy dinner or parties or your day off. The last thing you would have wanted to do would be to risk your life, home, family, and job over politics!

Sound familiar?

It should because this is where we are today just the same as it was in 1776.

The truth is that in that time in our history, when the brave men we all look up to and respect took a stand against the biggest and strongest military in the world. Nearly half of the colonists did not want to fight and wanted to stay loyal to the King of England.

Let that sink in.

Over twenty percent of the colonist agreed with the politics of the King of England, which was directly the opposite of freedom of every kind, and the remaining 30% or more remained neutral, not wanting to get involved. It is estimated that only 40-45% of colonists supported a war. Half of the colonists just wanted to live their lives exactly the way they were living and did not want any part of their lives disrupted with politics or a war to change the status quo.

Does that sound familiar?

It should because that is exactly the climate we are living in today.

In November are the midterm elections. America’s two dominant political parties have become so divided that whichever party wins control of Congress, that party will impart its values and goals on America. The Democratic Party desperately wants to regain control and erase all things Trump. If the Democrats gain the majority of Congress it is likely that any forward momentum of the Trump Administration will be stopped and the daily news will be nothing but 24-7 impeachment hearings.

The Democratic Party has also shifted further left to a more Socialist-leaning ideology. They have voiced their opinions against a border wall, against ICE, against the new Tax Cuts Plan, and against free market healthcare for almost two years now. They preach about open borders, tax increases, for a new costly socialist style health care policy, abolishing ICE, and reducing America’s military and power position in the world.

Democrats are also against Trump’s peace deal with North Korea, ending the Nuclear Deal with Iran, and forcing other countries to treat American companies fairly in trade. This is only the tip of the iceberg and says nothing about the social policies that liberal Democrats embrace, like abortion, 16 different genders and the idea that masculinity is dangerous.

If we elect Conservatives and Independents in order to keep the majority control of Congress, and Senate in the hands of sane people — or even strengthen our control, we can be assured that President Trump’s Make America Great Again agenda will continue.

Although not all Republicans or Independents agree with Trump in all matters, the Republican party is uniting under him as his policies are proving to be successful and as Americans get a feel about WINNING again.

Winning is all about the sentiment of the People and of the Markets and the expectation of further wins. And because as of now America is boasting a thriving economy, record high employment numbers, lower taxes, defeating ISIS, ending a NK nuclear threat, fighting a war on opioids, record high human trafficking arrests, and tightening border security — general optimism about further winning is at an all time high.

These Trumpian results show that electing a businessman was exactly what America needed.

Which takes us back to treating our long term politicians as a liability and not as an asset.

And that makes the case for strong term limits in all positions for all of our representatives a much needed reality, because the brave men that led our colonies into a Revolutionary War that led to our Independence and to our Constitution — they were all common men, and certainly not career politicians of any Establishment.

Like it or not, we are at a time in history where we cannot afford to be complacent. Our voices and our votes matter greatly.

And the biggest truth that we all must remember is that we have been born into the blessing of the freedoms we possess. But with this gift comes great responsibility, since each and every generation must fight to preserve our freedoms.

We each have a choice. At the end of the day, who will we be.

Will we be the random citizens of America that do not want to be inconvenienced with politics?

Or…

Will we be that Patriot who stands in front of the firing line unashamed and unabashed?

Yours,

Dr Churchill

PS:

That is the challenge facing us today.

Which way we go, surely will define us forever.

And what path we shall follow as individuals, will color our perception and our reputation for evermore.

And that is the grave difference between the two paths opening up in front of all of us.

Because a Patriot is a strong loyalist to our Constitution, and a Freedom fighter, who will risk it all, and even chance his life & limb, in order to defend our freedoms and our national Liberty.

Whereas a vanilla soy latte, liberal, is a slave of fashion and fads, following Group Think, and Group Action. He is just another snowflake wearing the leotard of leftism socialism and dementia sprinkled liberalism, dressed in black & masked as an Antifa, and going out to break people’s heads on Demo day with wooden clubs — once in a while — whereas the rest of time he is just another plain stupid stoner, eating Doritos from the 10 pound bag, couched in front of a video game console and a big monitor TV screen wasting his life away.

And you?

Who are you?

Perhaps who you are is defined by how you vote and by where do you stand on these issues…

Do you know where you stand?

I for one — know where I stand.

I stand for Liberty and I’m never on my knees.

I choose to fight.

I choose to speak and write and I refuse to be silent.

I organize and I also choose to help campaigns and protest what I see as threats to our Life, Liberty, Property, and the Pursuit of Happiness.

I stand for political office.

I choose to vote Independent and Conservative of the Lincoln party.

I refuse to be part of the stupid generation that lost the gifts of freedom and the fruits of Liberty that were handed down to me — in exccahnge for a bag of weed and the right to get stoned stupid.

I refuse to be that idiot…

Because that would be a tragedy that I could not bear to carry for ever…

I could never look my children in the eyes, and say I was just too busy to care about politics.

Therefore I choose to fight.

I am a fighter like these beautiful American men and women who put the fright on the hearts of our enemies…

What about you?

Who do you choose to be?

And perhaps more importantly — what future do you want to see for your children?
