Broadcaster Paul Harvey outlines in 1965 what he would do if he were the devil .. Interesting to compare this nightmarish vision to today.
I remember finding this audio of Paul Harvey many years ago, as we progressed into the internet age. I found the words of Paul to be spot on. Even a decade ago, I was able to save that audio to my computer, and have managed to keep it. But, while perusing through Parler.com (you can find me here) today, I came across this very well done video, with the Paul Harvey audio of "If I Were the Devil." It was uploaded to Youtube on March 1, 2019, so it is very much up to date.
There is one thing that I should tell you, this is probably not appropriate for young children to watch. I beg you to watch this but please not with the little children in the room. Keep in mind what this is about. The Devil has lead many Americans to be doing some pretty bad and sick things.
From the Dan Bongino Show's description of this episode on youtube.com/Bongino or in his Show Notes:
In this episode, I address the explosive weekend interview between President Trump and Fox News’ Chris Wallace. I also address the explosion of violence in Portland and the violent leftists behind it.
Attempting to keep these posts written on the day of the show, or the next day, is getting to be a major challenge. It started last week with the passing of my father, and I managed to do what I could in a relatively contemporaneous way to keep up. However, various things this week that came along has kept me from reaching that goal. There is no doubt in my mind that the readers of this blog would really want to keep up with the show. And if they depend on this blog to do that, might I suggest that they just go directly to Dan Bongino's youtube channel on their own so that they can keep up? Seriously, I have no problem with that! You can always come back here and check out my posts as you go. There could always be some nugget here that lends another insight to the show episode that you may not have thought of. And seriously, I really think that Dan is quite capable, credible, and honestly one of the best podcasters out there, so he will be keeping you up to date with the information you need to know. So, when I'm behind like I am right now, you will survive. I may survive, too!
I actually did see this episode two days ago. I was going to write about it yesterday, but I couldn't decide where to go with it. Honestly, my mind was in total blank mode, staring at a computer screen, without any ideas coming forth. Authors call it "writer's block." There were so many good segments in this episode, where would I go with it? What is my takeaway? I'll get to that in a moment, as my writer's block diminishes.
Well, today, while listening to the Simon Conway Show on iHeartRadio, I learned something very valuable to know. Simon had on a great author and novelist by the name of Brad Thor. One of the highlights of the interview was when Simon asked Brad how he dealt with writer's block. Brad replied that any author that says they don't ever get writer's block is lying to you. And then, he provides a great piece of wisdom that I'll never forget, and totally free advice: "Give yourself permission to write a crummy first draft." I don't know, when you read this piece, you may think that I've posted that crummy first draft. In a way, you'd probably be right. But, it is the process of starting it that we can get hung up on, right? Okay, and so what if I watch the episode a second time, and maybe some segments multiple times. It was that, "Give yourself permission" thing that gets us by those writer's block moments. So, now that this problem is in the past, here is what I took away in this episode, and Dan will be glad that a member of his audience gets it.
One of the main themes of the show is that we need to listen to what the politician says. They will interchange words, like "defund" and "redirect funds," as though we are too dumb to know they are the same thing. That happened in the video of a Joe Biden interview, where he admits that he would redirect funds from the police, if he was President. And then there is the video of Ms. Lilith Sinclair who explains how they will destroy... I mean, abolish, the United States as we know it... reading from her latest version of the iPhone, which is a fine product of the free market system of capitalism... Kind of a clear example of how the "soytifa's" are so loyal to their cause, as in frauds, no? Like Dan says, "Just listen to them." That goes for Ms. Sinclair, Joe Biden, AOC, or any of the people on the left. They are saying what they want to do to America. So, if you're okay with voting for people that want to defund (redirect funds from) the police, or destroy (abolish) the United States, you are free to vote for them. It's still a free country. For now.
Yes, and I love the many other topics that Dan talks about in this episode, and I'm pretty sure you will too, unless you're a weak, soulless "Soytifa" (which Dan calls the Antifa group). And I'm really glad that I permitted myself to write this crummy first draft! Just sayin'...
In this episode, I address the backlash brewing over the faulty “modeling” used to shut down the country’s economy. You’re not going to believe the about-face going on. I also address the trouble hidden inside the “stimulus” bill that passed in the Senate last night.
This was one of the episodes that I had to go over a few times, before I could make a really good pitch here. You might be sitting at home, not at work, watching the kids, and of course, cursing the Wuhan Coronavirus. Or, you may just be bored to tears. I get that. A lot of things in your life that you enjoy aren't possible to do at this time. No baseball games to go see, and not being able to be following your NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament bracket. I get it. It sucks.
The list of things that we are not permitted to do right now is endless. We must remain to be hostages, in our homes. You must comply. Resistance is futile. We are learning, first hand, how valuable our freedom has been, and what the Founders gave us. We are also learning how quickly freedom could be taken away from us; for our own good, of course.
So, I did learn a few interesting things while watching this episode. Strangely, I had never heard of "Hobson's Choice," until Dan brought it up. The President is faced with choices that are really no choice at all! The media is attempting to paint President Trump into a corner with a "Hobson's Choice": Either shut everything down and people suffer with not being able to work, or do nothing, and people die. The worst part of that is, the MSM will attack him for either choice!
Continuing on from there, Dan fills us in on the "modeling problems." There is a problem there. A big problem. What President Trump may have been told by advisors may have not been accurate. Because of the extreme importance of the data coming in, we may see that there may have been an extreme amount of media hysteria when it comes to what is really happening. I tend to find myself thinking from the perspective of how many catch the flu, and many die, but yet, about half of us do not get the flu inoculation shots. Is that not weighing the risk of going on with your life, and taking your chances? People always do that, too.
Despite knowing the risk of doing something, like skydiving and not having the parachute open in time, or at all... people go on doing things. You know how it is, when you're thinking about doing something, and people tell you, "That's so risky!" We weigh the benefits to the risk, don't we?
Well, anyway, you'll find out a little secret in this episode, and I'm not telling you what it is. That's my big pitch of the day, to get you to click on that play button. Only just a little clue: Certain people that hate President Trump, and are suffering from massive amounts of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS), like Level 6, seem to already be in the process of developing their next "story" (as in, "a story," and not "the story") and I bet you can guess who the players are in that next plot!
Okay, just to play with your head a little bit today, here is your Hobson's Choice: Watch the video below, or just stay ignorant and uninformed, and be a good little sheep. Nope, nothing to see here. That is definitely what those on the Progressive side would want you to choose.
In this episode, I address the worst fake news story yet, as the media continues to promote insanity and hysteria. I also address the ridiculous pork Pelosi tried to insert in the Wuhan Virus Bill.
Wow, would you look at all those links I've included below, from the show notes? Yes, make no mistake, it was another jam-packed episode on The Dan Bongino Show yesterday (I know, I'm still a day behind). But, it is so important for me to be able to concentrate on what the episodes are telling us. You will no doubt see Dan's anger in the beginning of this video. You may see my anger in the content of this blog post. No doubt.
How many of us are screaming, wishing the Demonicrats in Washington, District of Corruption, could hear us? Why in the world did the Demonicrats throw in all their wish list in this bill now being considered, that is supposed to be helping Americans get through this Coronavirus attack on our economy? So much in that bill goes against just about everything that Conservatives stand for. As I say in my pinned tweet on Twitter, "I do not need the government to legislate my happiness, or for that matter, my misery!!" Believe me! We the People of America do NOT need any of the crap that the Demonicrats crammed into the bill that is supposed to help America, specifically our economy, survive! It is outrageous! We just need legislation to do what it is supposed to do: Just FIX IT, you Demonicrat morons! It is all we want, and all we need!
I totally understand why Dan Bongino was slightly unhinged today. I am, too! The media and the Demonicrats, propping up Biden? That's practically impossible, so there is their usual fallback: Attack the President. However, thanks to the great commentators like Dan Bongino, and those of us that do what we can to promote them, to get the word out. I don't think that the American people are all as stupid as they think we are. In fact, we're on top of it! And, be ready, Demonicrats, many of you running for reelection in November are going to be looking for a job. And I kind of hope that many of those in the MSM gaslighting China-propaganda-spreading cohorts are in the unemployment lines along with you.
Sadly, some of the episode had to do with another Joe Biden moment. Seriously? Why are people close to the old former Senator, V.P, and college professor (which never happened), allowing Joe to continue? Are the Demonicrats that worried about Bernie Sanders becoming their nominee? Why? We should all be asking those questions.
Watch this video, and stay tuned to the show. I think that Dan Bongino has a special talent in explaining how crazy things are getting, and that we need to FIX IT. There will be a way to do that, in just a few more months, in an election.
In this episode, I address the blowup on Fox News last night between me and Geraldo Rivera, and what it was really about. I also address the shameless plagiarism of the Trump plan by Joe Biden. I discuss another dreadful lie by AOC on cable news.
Please forgive me for being behind a couple days right now! It has been a busy, and a rough, weekend. Trying to keep my spirits up. Trying to help others keep their spirits up, one person at a time. After watching this wonderful episode of the Dan Bongino Show, I had a really good take away from it. You know how the media is bombarding us, on a continual basis, with more and more bad news? Events shutting down, churches shutting their doors for the normal services, and on and on, it keeps on coming. Who couldn't be depressed by all of this?
While some of us, or all of us, would like to say that it is all nonsense, that the Coronavirus is just a horrible hoax, we also have to consider that maybe there is a clear and present danger. Well, at least from the public panic reaction, anyway!
This is why I highly recommend this episode to you today, even if it is a couple days later than I meant to post it. When you watch the whole episode, I think you'll understand the whole meaning, especially when you get toward the end of it. There is the news about AOC's comment about voter suppression in the Michigan primary. What Alexandria Cortez-Ocassio says in her interview with Bret Baier of Fox News is extremely dumb! Be sure to see this part of the episode. It will entertain you! Maybe a good time for us to cheer up! As Dan says in his favorite quote, "WAIT! Do not FLEE!" Yes, we need to understand, our adversaries don't appear to be very smart. Just sayin'...
RELATED STORIES (in other words, read the show notes!):
As always, The Dan Bongino show was absolutely packed with information in today's episode. As Dan reminds us, again and again, they all know each other! And they all have something to hide! We're learning more and more about the Ukrainian connection to Biden's corruption scandal.
We will also see Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's shining illustration of the learnin' she received in college, with a degree in Economics. We should be glad she didn't major in theology, she would want us all to end up as atheists. Instead, she comes out with a confusion of two economists on the polar opposite ends of economic theory. Yes, she is pretty much clueless.
But the most important take-away I saw in this episode was near the beginning, when Dan told about when he decided that he wanted to be a cop, and explains how that happened. I pay intentional tribute to this part, as Dan is explaining why MOST cops are doing what they do, and how they are not usually recognized for their heroic actions on almost a daily basis.
