Freedom Is Bedrock Of The West — The establishment through it’s government agencies, mockingbird media and comped academia is seeking to destroy truth, justice and the American Way to bring forth a New World Feudalism.
One of the ways is promoting the untrue claim that America — and Western Civilization itself — is founded on slavery. The strategy via means like the objectively false 1619 Project follows the principle articulated by noted Nazi Joseph Goebbels that “if you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.”
Fortunately, as Goebbels qualified: “The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
And the truth is being told at places like here and Patriot.Online and many others.
A great rebuttal to the “West is a bunch of slave owners” lie can be found in Drieu Godefridi‘s article Enslavement of the Black by the White: ‘The Bedrock of the West’? at Gatestone Institute. Check it out.
Delco Election Suit Bombshell — Suit Filed By Greg Stenstrom, Leah Hoopes, Ruth Moton Against Delaware County, Numerous Officials
Delco Election Suit Bombshell — A lawsuit by Gregory Stenstrom, Leah Hoopes and Ruth Moton was filed yesterday, Nov. 18, in Delaware County Common Pleas Court against Delaware County, Pa., former Pennsylvania Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar, the Delaware County Board Elections, the Delaware County Bureau of Elections and numerous officials, including Chief Custodian and Voting Machine Warehouse Supervisor James Savage.
Stenstrom and Ms. Hoopes were Delaware County Board of Elections certified poll watchers and observers at the counting center. Ms. Moton, was a 2020 candidate for the 159 District in the State House.
The suit claims that:
Defendants intentionally and fraudulently conspired to destroy, delete, secrete, and hide November 3, 2020, election data, materials, and equipment to prevent discovery of election fraud and election law violations in Delaware County, which the Defendants also conspired to commit and did commit while carrying out the November 3, 2020, election. In furtherance of this conspiracy, Defendants intentionally created chaos surrounding the November 3, 2020, election so that they would be able to then carry out the acts of election fraud and the election law violations described herein undetected.
Defendants did this, in part, by placing incompetent or underqualified individuals with no training in positions of responsibility so that they would be able to hide their fraud under the pretense of the incompetence of election day workers/volunteers in the event the election fraud and election law violations were discovered.
Moreover, when a May 21, 2021 Right to Know (RTK) request for election information and data was made with respect to information that is by federal and state law to be kept and preserved, the Defendants fraudulently and intentionally deleted, changed, adulterated, manipulated and/or obscured the information, data, and materials produced in response to the RTK request in order to hide their fraud and election code violations because they knew that they could not reconcile the previously fraudulently reported November 3, 2020 election results with the actual responsive information that they had in their possession and which they were required to preserve and produce in response to the Right to Know request.
Plaintiffs know this to be the case and can document this and demonstrate this by showing, among other things, that November 3, 2020 election, data materials, and equipment was destroyed including but not limited to V-Drives, Return Sheets, machine tapes/proof sheets/result tapes, Mail-In Ballots, Ballots Destroyed, voting machines, hard drives, paper documentation, Blue Crest data, correspondence concerning the November 3, 2020 election.
Further the suit notes that Delaware County was the last count to submit its presidential vote total in Pennsylvania “potentially changing November 3, 2020 election results in numerous races”.
The suit says that before Delco’s submission, Donald Trump was leading Joseph Biden by 7,515 votes, and that Delco’s tally showed a difference of 88,070 votes between the candidates favoring Biden.
Maybe the most shameful thing is the silence of the Delaware County Republican Party leadership. Truthfully, you can have an easy life in second place if it’s an easy life you want. See: Philadelphia Republican Party.
Please don’t equate Republican with good. Political parties are means, not ends, and being active in one does not automatically confer virtue, or imply that you love truth, justice and this nation.
Also, not every one mentioned in the suit is a villain. Regina Scheerer, Cathy Craddock and Marilyn Heider are good citizens, grandmoms and patriots, and were most certainly doing their best.
Tip to the plaintiffs: We are confident that they are as convinced the election was stolen as any of us.

MSNBC Doxing Rittenhouse Jurors?— The Kenosha Police Department tweeted today (Nov. 18) that Last night a person who is alleging to be affiliated with a national media outlet was briefly taken into custody and issued several traffic related citations. Police suspect this person was trying to photograph jurors. This incident is being investigated much further.
Kenosha, of course, is where the Kyle Rittenhouse inquisition is occurring after a pedophile and a wife abuser were shot by the boy in self-defense.
The reporter is identified as James Morrison who says he was told to follow the vehicle under the supervision of Irene Byon, a producer in New York.
Judge Bruce Schroeder has banned NBC and MSBNC from the courtroom for the rest of the trial.
These aren’t journalists. These are terrorists who are trying to make an innocent boy spend his life in prison.
In her October 22 New York Times opinion piece, “Angela Merkel Was Right,” journalist Michelle Goldberg praises the German chancellor for her bold 2015 decision to resettle about 800,000 Syrian refugees. Experts like former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and former Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson who predicted doom and gloom for Germany after Merkel threw open the borders were wrong, Goldberg wrote. Merkel, on the other hand, was correct, and now because of the refugees’ contributions, Germany is a better place.
High on the list of Merkel’s triumphs, Goldberg wrote, was the new, more vigorous labor force that refugees represented. Bonus: the Syrians, continued Goldberg, would boost Germany’s stagnant population growth. Goldberg’s sub rosa message is that if the U.S. followed Germany’s example, adding more refugees would revitalize the domestic economy. Moreover, Goldberg suggested, since Syrians have so seamlessly integrated into German society, Afghan evacuees might do the same and thus help end U.S. divisiveness.
Not all went as smoothly as Goldberg suggested. In the years immediately following Merkel’s decision, crime in Germany spiked. Statistics related to violent crime showed that, in 2017, 10.4 percent of murder suspects and 11.9 percent of sexual offense suspects were asylum-seekers and refugees. Many migrants formed gangs and perpetrated some of the most heinous imaginable crimes.
Beyond the considerable societal challenges that refugee resettlement often brings, timing for the accepting country must be factored into any decision to admit large numbers of foreign nationals. In 2015, Germany wasn’t undergoing a continuous wave of illegal immigration as the U.S. is today. As of late October, an estimated 1.7 million illegal aliens from more than 160 nations were detained at the Southwest border. Most will eventually be admitted to the U.S. population, and rewarded with employment permission.
The federal government will have its hands full dealing with the multiple needs of under-educated, low-skilled, non-English speaking foreign nationals without adding thousands more refugees, asylees and evacuees. The federal government has already failed dismally to cope with the estimated 11 million, possibly as many as 20 million, illegal immigrants. Another large caravan is headed toward the border, and determined to get past what is now only token protection.
Unlike Germany, a largely well-run country, the U.S. is and has been politically dysfunctional for decades. Germany has a successful on-the-job training record, while the U.S. has mostly abandoned training employees and offering trade school education. Unions have been decimated. Workers are poorly paid and generally treated even worse. These failures also argue strongly against adding a new population that would further put U.S. citizens at a labor market and public education disadvantage.
Goldberg is doubtless sincere in her recommendation that the U.S. adopt a more welcoming system to accommodate a higher refugee total. For Goldberg and other refugee advocates, they suddenly have a unique chance to lead the way on compassionate resettlement. The Biden administration’s State Department recently agreed to let private groups of five individuals form sponsoring units that could, for a 90-day period, be responsible for resettling Afghan evacuees. The sponsorswill be expected to provide for the evacuees’ basic necessities such as clothing, groceries and household furnishings, as well as assist with processes to access federal, state and local benefits, and introduce the evacuees to the local community.
The congressional wealthy who have throughout their careers voted in favor of higher refugee intake could and should also step up to the plate. Senators Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), Mitt Romney (R-UT) and Bernie Sanders (I-VT) have consistently voted for higher refugee resettlement totals. They’re among Congress’ richest legislators, multimillionaires all, each of whom have multiple homes.
The flaw in the so-called “sponsor circles” is that the guardianship period lasts only 90 days, insufficient time for Afghan evacuees or other refugees to accustom themselves to American life. Most refugees need assistance for many years; eventually, the responsibility to provide for them will fall on voiceless state and local taxpayers.
In the end, despite interim, partial solutions like the sponsor circles, the federal government must develop a refugee program consistent with the public’s wishes, its ability to integrate new arrivals, and maintain a sustainable, stable future. A haphazard evacuation of tens of thousands of unvetted Afghans doesn’t meet that definition. Americans want to help Afghans, but the evacuees’ presence was thrust upon them. The elite and the wealthiest are better prepared to provide immediate assistance than others. Let them be the first among Americans to set an example; others will follow.

Delco Vote Fraud Case Before Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court — Leah Hoopes and Gregory Stenstrom will have their appeal heard 9:30 tomorrow morning at Commonwealth Court in Harrisburg of a Jan. 11 ruling by Delaware County Common Pleas Court Judge John Capuzzi that was hoped by the powers-that-be would shut up all discussion of massive voting irregularities in Delco in the 2020 election.
Leah and Greg — who were Delaware County Board of Elections certified poll watchers and observers at the counting center — say that they were prevented by Capuzzi of having an evidentiary hearing and discovery regarding their claims that that the chain of custody for ballots was shattered in Delco, and the USB drives containing records from voting machines disappeared.
They said that Capuzzi would not allow discovery to see ballots and envelopes.
Capuzzi dismissed the case with prejudice and awarded attorney fees to the county Board of Elections, which was the defendent.
Leah says the fees are now up to $50,000.
Leah says she and Greg are also defendants — along with President Trump, Rudy Giuliani, Jenna Ellis, Phil Kline and The Thomas More Society — in a defamation suit filed by James Savage of Chester, who is head of the Delaware County Voting Machine Office.
The suit has been strangely filed in Philadelphia Common Pleas Court, despite nobody involved living in Philly and the matter occurring in Delaware County.
Dynastic, career politician Jake Corman – president pro tempore of the Pennsylvania State Senate – is the latest Republican to toss his hat in the ring for Governor of this great Commonwealth. Given Corman’s insatiable ambition, his decision to enter the fray isn’t necessarily surprising. What is shocking is that someone with Corman’s amount of political baggage actually thinks he enhances his party’s potential for victory in 2022. Corman’s arrogance in believing he will “clear the GOP field” (as he is reportedly conveying to GOP power brokers) is breathtaking. Speaking clearly: Jake Corman is the most unelectable candidate in the GOP field, and his candidacy should be considered dead in the water.
Having worked in Pennsylvania’s campaign trenches for over 20 years, I can tell you that having a baggage-laden, career politician like Corman as your opponent is the political equivalent of a shooting fish in a barrel for any consultant/strategist with half a brain cell. No one wants to see Jake Corman become the GOP nominee for governor more than the presumptive Democrat nominee, Attorney General Josh Shapiro. Let us examine the reasons why:
1. Corman hails from a geographically weak area. The State College media market covers less than 9 percent of the state’s total population. Corman’s home county, Centre, is the largest county in this media market, and it is one he lost against an underfunded, no-name Democrat in his 2018 bid for re-election. Compounding this problem is the fact that Corman has virtually no name recognition outside his state senate district as confirmed by a recent poll of the 2022 Republican gubernatorial primary race. In fact, Corman barely attracts a scant 15 percent of GOP voters in his own media market, which he has been highly visible in for 22 plus years. However, in that same poll, Republican State Senator Doug Mastriano bests him with 25 percent support in Corman’s own media market and doesn’t even represent any of that area in the Senate.
2. Corman is the product of dynastic politics. His state senate seat was bequeathed to him by his late father, former state senator Doyle Corman. If there is one thing voters on both sides of the spectrum in Pennsylvania detest –especially Republican primary voters– it’s political dynasties. Just ask Jeb Bush. This helps explain why in Corman’s own small backyard, he can’t garner more than 15 percent of GOP voters in his bid for governor while Lou Barletta is dominating his own media market with over 51 percent support in that same poll.
3. Corman is now target numero uno of Pennsylvania’s grassroots conservatives, who are enraged at him for: ushering Act 77 through the legislature thus creating a 50-day stretch of no-excuse-needed mail-in voting, which Trump loyalists believe handed the election to Biden; and vindictively punishing pro-election audit State Senator Doug Mastriano, a hero to many pro-Trump Republicans. Corman not only booted Mastriano from the Senate GOP caucus, he stripped him of his Harrisburg staff.
4. The heaviest anchor around Corman’s candidacy is his 22-year anti-taxpayer record of enriching himself at the public’s expense. Indeed, “Jake the Snake” is arguably the most venomous creature in the Harrisburg Swamp. He’s been at the center of every crooked deal to come out of the state capital over the last two decades, and his numbers will collapse faster than his backbone during state budget negotiations with Tom Wolf when this record is exposed. The lowlights are: the infamous midnight pay raise of 2005, when legislators snuck into the Capitol during the witching hour to give themselves an unconstitutional mid-term pay raise of 16-34 percent; the Pension Grab of 2001, when Corman and his fellow careerists raised their already generous taxpayer-funded pension by a staggering 50 percent; and the gas tax hike of 2013, which Corman enthusiastically voted for and touts to this day. How politically toxic is the vote making Pennsylvania’s gas tax among the highest in the country? Just ask Tom Corbett. Tom Wolf pounded Corbett over the head with ads in every media market outside Philly, causing enough Republicans to pull the lever against Tax Hike Tom. You can bet Josh Shapiro’s team is retrieving those ads from the media archive as you read this. Eight years ago, I wrote a memo warning Republicans that Tom Corbett’s numbers were fast becoming unrecoverable. However, the GOP establishment hacks ignored reality and stuck with “their guy”, who went on to buck the national Republican wave of 2014 to be the ONLY Incumbent GOP Governor in the country to lose to a Democrat.
You are probably asking, “Why doesn’t Corman understand that his candidacy is mission impossible?” Is he that delusional to think he can survive his horrible record?”
Well, yes. It’s simple. Corman’s cadre of (inept and greedy) consultants need somebody to pay for their second or third summer beach home. And this is the dirty little secret the media fails to report during campaign season. Pennsylvania’s establishment consultant class lines up in big statewide races to feed at the trough, often going to great lengths to convince their clients and potential clients “they can be governor, too.” Many do this knowing damn welltheir candidate stands no chance. But for them, it doesn’t matter as long as the check clears. I understand that strategists and consultants working in campaigns is part of the process. I do that for a living, as well. But to actively recruit and convince ego-driven, delusional politicians they stand a chance at winning statewide office, when in reality they have the same chance as a one-legged man does at winning an butt-kicking contest, is one of the reasons we have so many subpar candidates in the field. And therein lies the problem with today’s GOP gubernatorial field. Many of these candidates with no chance of victory are often coaxed into running by Harrisburg’s grifter class. I know this for a fact, since I have often convinced candidates not to run for office after they met with other firms who were selling false hope of likely electoral success.
Unfortunately, what is the result of this greedy practice? The voters are left with fatally flawed candidates, like Jake Corman, who actually believe they, too, can be Governor. And if flawed career politician Jake Corman by some miracle or strange turn of event becomes the GOP nominee in 2022, then you can expect Tom Wolf to hand over the keys to the Governor’s mansion to Attorney General Josh Shapiro.

So The New York Crimes, I mean Times, had a long-winded opinion piece entitled “The First Thing We Do Let’s Kill All the Leaf Blowers” by a Margaret Renkl. One of my Swarthmore neighbors, John B, hand-delivered it to me –that’s how they do things in Swarthmore — and insisted I write about it. John is anti Leaf Blowers (hereafter LB).
Now, living in Swarthmore, and Delco, the melodic tones of the gas-powered LB reigns supreme at many hours, which leads to outrage in some quarters, though, unless it’s before 7 a.m., it’s kinda legal.
Now there are not any Pennsylvania State Regulations about Gas LB’s (and here you thought there were Pennsylvania State Regulations about everything), but 15 States, including neighboring states, New Jersey and New York, have municipal regulations on this. These municipalities include Princeton and Southampton.
Now we have never used a LB because we refuse to surrender our leaves to the Borough. Instead, our leaves become mulch for our winter vegetables and other plants, and end up in our chicken coop. The leaves make the ground much richer for nature and, by growing and eating our own fruit, as long as we are still allowed to do this, we feel we may be, in our own small way, disrupting this whole notion of the Global supply chain.
At least we hope so.
A rake has advantages over any LB. First, raking does not affect the environment. It is also this thing they call exercise which many married men try to avoid, and it puts you right out there with nature, rather than beyond it.
Which gets us to lawnmowers. We have neighbors using lawnmowers daily, or paying someone. My question has always been Why! Of all the activities I could find (and did as an adolescent), I find daily mowing much less useful than composting (in my house I’m “King of the Compost Pile”), digging for plants, trees, providing for our chickens, etc. However, if this daily mowing keeps our neighbors off the Swarthmore streets, it’s probably useful.
Let’s end with a quote from a former Eagles Player Ricky Waters “For who, for what”. Though I guess if it’s a choice between watching the Fall 2021 Eagles or mowing, then mowing sounds good.
