The Trump 2020 Campaign - An Interview with Jenna Ellis ~ Ep. 1291 ~ The Dan Bongino Show®

From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode, I interview Trump 2020 campaign legal advisor Jenna Ellis about the state of the campaign.
Of course, just about every time I see an episode of the Dan Bongino Show, I'm pretty sure it's the best one I've seen yet.  But, that's just me.  This is one that I know that anyone that wants President Trump to WIN the reelection, needs to see.  However, there is even more I can add to that.  This is information that President Trump supporters that actually talk to people about the President, need to know.

Jenna answers Dan's questions very thoroughly.  That is an important thing to know about this interview.  Dan isn't asking dumb questions like the fake news guy the other day that asked if President Trump was glad the South lost the Civil War.  No "gotcha" questions, of course, and full disclosure, Dan and Jenna are friends.  Dan asked serious questions, representing a lot of what Trump supporters want to know, to verify and confirm our positive information about the President.  And I believe that Jenna gave very solid and informed answers. 

Just how lucky are we to have Dan Bongino and the interviews and episodes that are so packed with information?  There was something in this interview that I don't know if every viewer would catch.  It was my feeling that not only did Jenna answer all of Dan's questions in great detail, but she also provided enough evidence for me to know she was being truthful and not just trying to spin a narrative.  No doubt, her beliefs seem to match our President's, and ultimately, ours. 

There is no doubt that her feelings about loyalty to the President runs deep.  And then there is the fact that the things I believe about the President seem to be confirmed.  I guess that her knowing that the Founders wrote the Constitution with a citizen President in mind, and that this country was founded with God's principles in mind, was all the affirmation that I needed. 

So, if you are a supporter of the President, watch this interview, while learning and gaining confidence in the information you have accumulated about the President and his accomplishments over the last 3 to 4 years.  It will be well worth your time!

Study Marxism to understand Hillary ~ By Cliff Kincaid

Mrs. Clinton's speech to the Women in the World Summit, where she spoke on how religious beliefs have to be changed, was significant for several reasons. The event was sponsored by Tina Brown, who launched The Daily Beast and later became editor-in-chief of Newsweek. The event was conducted in association with The New York Times, and included actress Meryl Streep and comedian Jon Stewart. These were the elites of the progressive media and Hollywood.

Typically, Mrs. Clinton talked about families at the event. "We know that when women are strong, families are strong," she said. "When families are strong, countries are strong." It's important to understand this comment in light of her own failed marriage, which she has held together for political purposes, and how she has adopted the entire progressive agenda regarding how traditional families have to be changed to accommodate new sexual rights and new "family" structures. Olson's book is still important in order to understand what Mrs. Clinton means by families, and how Marxists use family-friendly jargon to confuse and mislead. Kengor's book is absolutely essential to understand how the progressive agenda would continue to transform the nation under a President Hillary Clinton.

I would tell you that I give Cliff Kincaid a lot of credit for being courageous enough to write and publish this piece, but then, I'd be patting myself on the back for having the courage to tell you about this article. The problem is, I shudder at the thought that I'm doing this. You see, I'm thinking the Progressives may have already won the cultural war. It is no longer "politically correct" to say that non-traditional families are destroying the foundation of this country, so, what are we to do, say, or write, that won't get NON-progressives fired from our jobs or blacklisted somewhere (like in the mainstream media or Hollyweird)? The "public" (or trolls living in mommy's basement?) is now programmed to scream and holler if anyone sounds one little bit intolerant of the non-traditional families.

As Cliff points out in this column, "the gay rights movement has now morphed into rights for so-called transgenders, as we see in the relentless media propaganda that is designed to convince the public that men can, and perhaps should, become women."

Okay, here is the deal:  I am sure that Cliff wrote this column for the benefit of promoting Paul Kengor's book.  I have no problem with that.  Cliff is just the messenger, and I'm just the guy galloping across the fruited plains via the internet super-highway to deliver the message:
Paul Kengor’s new book, Takedown: From Communists to Progressives, How the Left Has Sabotaged Family and Marriage, provides a detailed explanation of why, according to a new Gallup poll, “Americans are more likely now than in the early 2000s to find a variety of behaviors morally acceptable, including gay and lesbian relations, having a baby outside of marriage and sex between an unmarried man and woman.” Gallup notes, “Moral acceptability of many of these issues is now at a record-high level.”

What we are witnessing is a “shift to the left” that has been carefully orchestrated and planned over the course of decades. It is a phenomenon known as “cultural Marxism,” the application of Marxism to culture rather than the economic sphere. Kengor’s book, published by an arm of WorldNetDaily, outlines how this movement has operated, naming the names of the individuals and organizations that have been part of it, and how they have reached their zenith under the presidency of Barack Obama and the Democratic Party.

Significantly, he writes, Obama’s “most enduring legacy may be on American culture,” not in economics or foreign policy.
What makes me feel the worst is that we can be aware of cultural Marxism, and possibly believe that the Left has already won that battle, but do we have even a clue how to promote the desire to bring back the traditional family as the norm in this society?  Those of us that love the traditional family are the ones that would never believe in using force or tyranny to change things back to the way it was.

It took the Progressives a little over 100 years to transform America, and they're not done!  There is more evil that is ready to come in the form of Hillary Rodham Clinton, who has said, "deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed." Whoa, that is a lot more specific than just the old "hope and change" slogan! Just sayin'...

From RenewAmerica.com



Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush's speech that launched his presidential campaign on Monday noted that Hillary Clinton's "progressive agenda" includes the admonition that traditional religious beliefs "have to be changed." Mrs. Clinton's entire quote, in talking about opposition to her version of feminism and demands for abortion, was that "deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed."

Bush also said of the Democrats, "They have offered a progressive agenda that includes everything but progress."

But it's never been the case that the progressive agenda offers real progress, as ordinary people understand the term. Instead, the "progressives" offer what Professor Paul Kengor calls cultural Marxism. This is the planned disintegration of the traditional family structure that has been the basis of Western civilization. Kengor, author of the new book, Takedown: From Communists to Progressives, How the Left Has Sabotaged Family and Marriage, told me in an interview that the progressives are guided by the belief that "new rights are coming all the time and that everything is in a state of evolution." He added, "There are no absolutes for them." Hence, the gay rights movement has now morphed into rights for so-called transgenders, as we see in the relentless media propaganda that is designed to convince the public that men can, and perhaps should, become women. Kengor says the next step is for "progress" or "evolution" to a new level that includes such concepts and arrangements as multiple wives, group marriages, sibling marriages, fathers and stepfathers marrying daughters and stepdaughters, and uncles marrying nieces.

It's no secret that Bill and Hillary Clinton's family structure exists in name only. Bill, the disgraced former president impeached by the House, betrayed Hillary and had sex with a White House intern. He is a serial adulterer. But the Clintons have stayed together for political reasons, so that Hillary can pursue her political career. Together, along with daughter Chelsea, this arrangement has generated nearly $2 billion in donations to a family foundation that now finds itself embroiled in financial scandals over where the money went, and what it paid for.

Patriotism or just PO'd? ~ By Dave Welch

Commentary from WorldNetDaily
Dave Welch By Dave Welch Posted: January 23, 2010 ~ 1:00 am Eastern © 2010 The political breath of fresh air that swept through Massachusetts this week like an old-fashioned "nor'easter" gave hope that the government takeover of health care and the radical agenda of the Marxist/Democrat machine can be slowed or stopped. The fact that it occurred near where another "shot heard 'round the world" occurred on the 19th of the month (April) was particularly sweet. As usual, let me be the fly in the sugar bowl for a moment to remind us of some important facts. First, anything close to center and certainly center-right from the Commonwealth was a huge victory. However, lest we pin too much hope on Scott Brown, it is important that we remember some critical facts. First, he represents a state that has given us Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Barney Frank and – I know I'll raise some ire with this inclusion – Mitt Romney … all center to very far left on a legitimate scale of true conservatism. This political victory was desperately needed to throw grease under the drive wheels of the Obama/Reid/Pelosi locomotive. The fact that it also represents the uprising of the Common Joe to take our government back is inspiring. With that stated, here is the question we must answer; "How did we get from John and Sam Adams to Ted Kennedy and Barney Frank to begin with?" We must also answer the challenge David presents us from God's word: "If the foundations be destroyed, what shall the righteous do?" (Psalm 11:3) The foundation he was referring to is in verse 1, "In the Lord, I take refuge. …" Do we largely take refuge, aka hide our collective self under His authority and protection? How is it that the region that was the birthplace of freedom and produced like the Adams and documents like the Fundamental Orders of Connecticut declined so far, so fast? While we often deride Western Europe for its dead churches, secularism and socialism, those nations have been on a much longer and more gradual decline. New England is the least churched region in the nation, following in the footsteps of our European cousins, producing similar fruits. In large part the majority of our pulpits, congregations and institutions no longer reflect the "aflame with righteousness" described by Alexis de Tocqueville. We have loved comfort, popularity, prosperity and peace far too much to risk even preaching the offensive truth of God's Word lest we chase off the big donors or aren't invited to be keynote at the Church Growth Conference. While we love to wave flags and wipe a tear on Independence Day, do we really know what patriotism is, or is it even a legitimate premise for Christians? Am I irritating you will all these questions? Good. How we define patriotism in its true form, whether it is just people mad at government overreach and overspending or whether the foundations of it are much deeper, is critical. Noah Webster, in his historic 1828 dictionary defines it as:
PAT'RIOTISM ,n. Love of one's country; the passion which aims to serve one's country, either in defending it from invasion, or protecting its rights and maintaining its laws and institutions in vigor and purity. Patriotism is the characteristic of a good citizen, the noblest passion that animates a man in the character of a citizen. (emphasis added)

About my Christmas and Reflections on the New Year (and Decade)

From johnny2k's Facebook Page (NOTES)
From left: Lisa (my daughter), me, Brian (my son) By John Kubicek December 28, 2009 Yes, I worked over the Christmas Holiday time, but at least I was able to get with my family on Christmas Eve. The crowd included my brother Dave, sister Mary Jen, my Mom and Dad, and my daughter Lisa accompanied by her awesome boyfriend Andrew. We ate dinner that Mary Jen prepared, ordourves that Dave provided, did our gift exchange which is always fun, and played the card game, Wizard, a family favorite. I hope you all had at least as good of a Christmas as I did. It helped me to get through several days of rain and then snow. Don't you just love Winter? Actually, I apologize for taking it so lightly, knowing that many family plans had to be aborted due to the weather we had in this part of the country. Sorry about that. And I understand your pain. In the opening statement of this comment, I did mention that, "Yes, I worked over the Christmas Holiday time..." It wasn't just at my job, but also in working on my side projects. And of course, the standard delays of this time of the year, like successfully getting my gift shopping done and then (poorly) wrapping them, caused some projects to be delayed. But while many of the top talk-show and TV News hosts were taking the time off, somebody had to be watching out for us, keeping the public informed of all that is going on. I did my usual share of blog posts and youtube videos that you can always check out. We all have our priorities, though, don't we? It was hard, but I managed to get my family first, followed by my job, and then my work on my projects. Because I had my priorities correctly inline, I didn't feel any stress. I did what I had and wanted to do. Now that there is a new decade coming our way, I think that it would be a good time to reflect. What I am doing is evaluating what I did in the last 10 years; what I did right, and what I did wrong. And yes, I gave myself a grade - and that will stay confidential. I can tell you that I did find some areas of my life that need some improvement. To accomplish those improvements, I will have to make some lifestyle changes. To do that, I'm going to have to make some attitude adjustments. But, hey, no problem. I have the motivation. There's no doubt in my mind that major CHANGES really ARE coming our way. Not only do I want to prepare myself, I also want to be able to do my best to also help you get through -- or better yet, prevent -- those changes. During the time that I was thinking about what I want to accomplish in this next coming decade, I realized that it all has to do with what I can do for you. I don't want to sound harsh, but this is NOT the time to be clueless about what is going on in this world. This is NOT the time to be ignorant of the threats that we face. It will be my eternal mission, I think (because I leave it up to the Lord), to do my best to provide the information and resources you need to help us prevent a hostile takeover of our country, and our freedom.

What's it take to win the Heisman?

From WorldNetDaily (SportsNetDaily section)
Trophy winner, coach tell WND secret to running back's success Posted: December 13, 2009 ~ 8:12 pm Eastern By Stewart Stogel © 2009 WorldNetDaily NEW YORK – For a brief moment this weekend, the sporting world took a time out from its constant coverage of Tiger Woods' ever expanding scandal to report on a traditional "feel good" story, the Heisman Trophy. Just hours after Woods announced his "indefinite suspension" from professional golf, the 75th Heisman Trophy was awarded to Alabama running back Mark Ingram in the closest voting in the award's history. The contrast and the connection between the two was compelling. Woods, who has admitted to numerous incidents of infidelity, insisted that his immediate goal during his golfing hiatus is to concentrate on rebuilding his ties with his family. Family ties was a theme repeatedly expressed at the Heisman award ceremony last night. Ingram, who rose to be named college football's No. 1 player for 2009, insisted that his family ties were the main factor for his meteoric season, a campaign that will see his Alabama Crimson Tide play Texas for the national championship in Pasadena, Calif., on Jan. 7. "First and foremost, I would like to thank God. I'm so blessed, and without him, I wouldn't have been able to accomplish this," Ingram said in his acceptance speech. "I'd like to thank my family, my mother and my grandparents ... my father, who has been a great influence on my life and I love him to death, my aunts and uncles, my sisters … and I'd like to thank my teammates." Ingram's acceptance speech can be seen below: READ FULL STORY >

The Unintended Consequences of Startups

In a column by Jason Nazar, he talks about something that I have also experienced. There are sacrifices to make when you want to get ahead in life. There is just no doubt about that. And, Jason reminds us in his column that at some point, we may have to decide if the "unintended consequences" are worth the reward. Hmmm.... something to think about! From the article:
There is only one way I can imagine running a startup, obsessively giving it everything you’ve got. In my opinion its what separates the winners from everyone else, and it’s the only way I’d ever be able to look back on this experience without regret. [Continue reading]
