Why are we ignoring the ticking timebomb that is the Prog-Democrats?

 New York Governor Kathy Hochul pardoned convicted felon Keisy Guerrero Mariano in late August 2026, which led the U.S. Supreme Court to dismiss a major legal battle over prolonged ICE detention bond rights. This was a well-planned move to undermine legal actions against violent criminals who are illegally here in the country. Why Kathy Hochul would defend violent criminals who rape, rob, and murder US citizens she is supposed to represent is not only insane, but is morally reprehensible. 

A good friend of mine told me years ago that he expected the left to initiate an ethnic cleansing against European-descent Americans. They are too well educated, independent-minded, and ask embarrassing questions of their leaders. Latino, African, and Asian migrants come from third-world countries with many generations of authoritarian regimes. They are programmed to obey, and they will obey their leaders without question. Welcome to 1984 in Español con el Sharia. 

What will be ironic is that, once again, the blacks will support the Democrats in this, but once in place, the black population will be even more ignored than now. It is hard to imagine that people can be that gullible, but Black politicians have depended on this naïveté for decades, and it is unlikely to go away. Europe is already farther down this suicidal path than America, but it appears, in Poland and Germany at least, people are beginning to wake up and smell the coffee. “Far Right” nationalistic parties have formed in both Germany and Poland. One very important region in Germany just elected a majority nationalistic party and the leftists are screaming about it. I think the UK is a lost cause and expect them to adopt sharia and become an official Muslim state. I do expect Ireland and Scotland to put up a fight. So maybe this will be the catalyst to reunite Ireland into the free country it should be, without British interference in Gaelic culture. One can only hope, I guess. In any case, the talking heads that run "community standards" and other censorship (a rose by any other name, et. al.) should look at the Leftist leaning of their "enforcement". In short, jailing someone for stating that Islamic youths in roving gangs are raping young British girls with impunity is NOT "hate speech"! Objectively true statements are just that; they cannot be considered hate speech. The truth is only categorized as hate speech in a tyranny, period, end of discussion. 

While Islam is a major problem in both the US and Europe, it is allowed because of the spectre of socialism; actually and realistically, it is simply communism, a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Why any sane person, knowing what happened in the last century, can espouse any form of socialism is beyond me. I’m a Constitutionalist Libertarian at heart. at heart a Constitutionalist Libertarian. I tend to believe most people will make good decisions, love their families, and generally want the greater good.  Dealing with Prog-Democrats has soured me on this viewpoint. They, as a group, are fundamentally amoral, foolish, naive, and corrupt. 

For the Democrats, a male can become a female by listening to the voices in his head, and magically, Biological law becomes optional, and he pretends to be a she, and not only that, but tries to force everyone around “her” to pretend along with them. So they force impressionable young men to doubt their biological sex and have dangerous hormonal treatments and disfiguring surgery to go along with the narrative. Young women are so programmed into believing in “toxic masculinity” that they also disfigure themselves to be unappealing to men. The real toxicity in these groups is the psychological backlash this horrific mindset and post hormonal/surgical depression and even psychosis have on these young people. The suicide rate alone is appalling, and even those who try to reverse the damage done to them have irreparable damage to their minds and bodies. There can be no rational excuse for this; it is pure evil, nothing more.

The Democrats also find (another page from 1984) people to be dispensable. Even children are subject to their amoral beliefs. “Progressive” Democrats have pushed laws that allow, literally, to kill a baby after a healthy birth. This obscene belief carries over into the women who support a mother who murdered her 3 kids because she was “sad”. This is horrific and disgusting, and mirrors the ancient worship of the demon Moloch, whose worship included burning babies alive. Another commonality is Islam, whose tenets allow burning their enemies alive, among other such disgusting practices. I guess that’s not really surprising. 

If the picture I am painting seems bleak, you ain’t seen nothing yet. Remember when electric blackouts resulted in mass riots in NYC? Imagine a full national blackout from a series of terror attacks. There are at least a few thousand (yes, thousands) terrorists known to have come into the country, but we have no idea where they are. Thank. you Biden and Obama! Islamists from Somalia, Yemen, Iran, Lebanon, and other countries were given carte blanche by Obama and Biden to invade us, and they have done so. This was apparently of complete disinterest to the media (imagine my shock!), and they never got around to reporting on it. In the Rand Reports on impending terrorism, scenarios were run on our vulnerabilities, and in several, ten teams of 5 operatives could successfully shut down the entire power grid and all utilities, with recovery taking weeks to months. Think about that next time you want to support illegals. MS13 and Tren de Aragua are minuscule problems compared to the real terror threat we face. 

Unless the Right pushes back hard and soon, we are probably in deep S**t. It is time to weed the garden and take out the trash by any means necessary.

Illinois Governor Pritzker want to ban all "Automatic" weapons as "weapons of war.

 The Court of Appeals has struck down a 2023 Illinois law the bans AR15s and any "similar"weapons as "weapons of war". "Despite those who value weapons of war more than public safety, this law was enacted to and has protected Illinoisans from the constant fear of being gunned down in places where they ought to feel secure," Pritzker spokesman Alex Gough said.

Leftist extremists have one goal, maintain and increase governmental power and control. By definition a liberal leftist believes that the average person is incapable of making correct and rational decisions. This ethical background serves to allow almost any amoral or unethical rule because the unwashed masses cannot be allwed means of resiting the government when it becomes corrupted and autocratic. Thomas Jefferson and others among our founding fathers warned us.about this many times. 

Loking at this objectively, there are several truths about leftist anti-gun mindset:

The Left believes that the 2nd amendment refers only to the militia of the Colonial times, and is unnecessaryn in the modern era. However, it is a truth that the very first action in every authoritarian takeover is to disarm the people. This is historically a universal truth. From Russia to Nazi Germany to China to Cambodia (under Pol Pot) to modern day Britain. Every time a tyrannical and intrusive government develops, it want to maintain power by making its subjects submissive and incapable of self defense. This lack of ability to defend oneself not only applies to defense against a tyrant leader, but against criminals. A citizenry subject to criminal tyranny by society around them is totally dependent on and subject to the government in power. "A free man must by definition be a man armed and trained in arms to stand against those who would curtail and remove that freedom". 

Secondly, that argument that semiautomatic weapos are "weapons of war" is spurious. Even as long ago as the Second World War, fully automatic weapons are the standard of military weapons. Semiautomatic weapons are not weapons of war, and weapons like the AR15, SKS, etc are absolutely THE best home defeense weapon. The Watts Riots proved that. The ONLY buildings that were not burned by Black rioters were proteted by mostly Vietnamese immigrants proteting their businesses and homes using AR15s, 30 cal carbines and SKS semiautomatic rifles. While a shotgun is pretty effective as an antipersonnel weapon,it requires a pretty stroong arm to effectively weild it. Well documented studies show that petite women can very effectively use an AR15, but were literally knocked down byt eh recoil of a 12 ga shotgun. Of course it is this very effectiveness as a defensive weapon that causes the Democrats to attack it. Democrats don’t want people to be able to defend themselves. They want us to be completely dependent on a corrupt and powerful government . Democrats want total control of our lives, money and minds. To them “1984” is not a cautionary tale, it is a “How To” manual and an underpinning of DNC policy platform. 

One year ago, these ugly and sick Democrats murdered Charlie Kirk, a father, husband and public evangelist for freedom or thought, religion and strong personal responsibility. The Democrats hate all of these things. They cannot tolerate personal responsibility because most of their base is incapable of personal responsibility or moral duty. 

Tomorrow is the anniversary of 9/11/2001 when Islam attacked our country murdering thousands of hard working Americans. Now there are several high profile Muslims in positions of power and influence, all Democrats. This is impeccable and imperative evidence of the Democrats hatred of our country. They attack our democracy, our religion, our families, and our country, They call patriots “nazi” and accuse hard working and law abiding citizens of homophobia/racism/sexism because we support one husband, one wife as a couple and heads of a family who love one another. There is NO replacement for the traditional family, and never will be. There are 2 and only 2 genders, biologically determined and immutable. There is no replacement for personal responsibility and accountability and equally no place for DEI, Woke/Socialist ideology, LGBTQ insanity or Sharia. The Constitution is the Law. 

We need to weed the garden and take out the garbage. That should start this midterm election. The Left does not belong in any position of power or authority. 

What Madness doth prevail.

I alwas thought the John Birch Society was a collection of wackjobs and loose cannons. OK,  I was wrong. I have seen far too many times that "conspiracy theories" turned out to be true. Urban Black Culture has done what I never expected to see; they have proven the JBS and the KKK to be absolutely correct. Don't take my word for it, Look up for yourself some of the speeches by the late leader of the John Birch Society and actually listen. Don't skim, don't prejudge, just listen. This guy actually frightened me by how accurate he was in his predictions.I was always taught that the extreme right was substantially insane and incapable of rational logic chains. 

That was both untrue and unrealistic, as BLM et al have shown. Here's another conspiracy theory you can follow: what if Soros, who we know was a Nazi sympathizer and working member of the Party, actually took the long view and is helping the black community to demonstrate their inability and unwillingness to live in civil society? Sound crazy? Maybe, but the speeches and philosophy they espoused was about the time Soros was determining his political positions and planning. The guy is and always has been, a snake. He watched the Nazi machine he served for years come apart. The two political systems he was taught to hate, Communism and Captialism gained ascendency and Nazism became a hated street urchin. That had to be a tough thing to accept for him. He adopted a veneer of Socialism, with the more cynical aspects of rampant Capitalism and he learned to thrive and grow wealthy in the swamp that he hated. He learned to muck in the swamp with the best of them. 

As a Nazi, he would have learned to consider blacks as sub-human, Untermensch, as were the Jews. So he probably considered them too ignorant to figure out he really was not their friend. As a Left wing Democrat, he would partake in the Democratic policy to ignore blacks except for the year before elections.  Most Democrats do not believe blacks are clever enough to realize the Left doesn't give a crap about blacks, but they want their votes, so the game goes on. Apparently most blacks have not figured it out yet, either. For 60 or so years of voting dependably for the Left, blacks have little enough to show for it. Yet the dance continues. Blacks, like feminists, can't help shooting themselves in the foot. Feminists have gone so far as to no longer represent biological women, but favor biological (mentally ill) males over biological females. Youn can't make this stuff up, and it just keeps getting weirder. For the left, a man in a dress takes precedence over a biological woman. 

So, given the background and the current state of affairs, my observations are really not so improbable after all. Weird and perverse are the common denominators here, and they are here to stay. When 14% of the population commits almost 90% of all violent crime, it doesn't take a genius to figure out our virtue signaling about DEI/BLM/BUC simply makes no sense. Politicians are notoriously hypocritical, but the sheer level of Democratic mendacity is far beyond the pale. Black culture is not only dysfunctional, but also dangerous. Every black who is educated, industrious, productive or responsible is dubbed "too white" by their peers. This alone is telling about the sad state of black urban culture. There is no group that even begins to approach the level of fatherless households as blacks. No other demographic preys upon itself so much as blacks. For as much as black on white crime is well over 50 times more common than thr reverse. black on black crime is even worse. On top of that, leftist media keeps burying these facts, rather than helping to expose and correct them. If the Left really gives a damn about blacks, why do they ignore this 800 pound gorilla in the room? 

The worse thing of all is the appallingly disingenuous way in which the left pretends there is no "black" problem, and even worse than that, that blacks are victims, not of the crime and single parent households that scar them for life, but of some kind of delusional “systemic racism”. The lack of fathers in the home is not systemic racism, it is the failure of Black leaders to act legitimately for the good of the people they claim to represent. The criminal who is committing a violent crime is NOT a victim, spin as you will, the person stabbing the other person is the bad guy. My personal opinion is that the leftist mantra of "toxic masculinity" is mainly to blame. Black boys and young men are almost expected to behave like feral hominids. This expection becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. 

The solution? Excision. Like any other infection, this must be removed. This generation is lost, but by removing the next from the ingrained conditioning of the black urban culture, it can be saved and maybe turned around. But to do this, the Democrats must be kept out of the proccess. They don't want black culture to be corrected. That would take too much power away from them. It's that or we really will face something very like a race war. That is the end game for Soros and the Democrats, whose plan is to take up the reins of total power once the dust clears. It won't be pretty. Read the novel “1984” if you want to see what is coming. 

Liberal poisons being injected into America’s lifeblood.

 

In our largest city, a Muslim radical elected to Mayor has refused to participate in ceremonies honoring Jewish Americans, condemn antisemitism or even acknowledge the brutal attacks by Hamas on innocent Israeli women and children. Furthermore, he is in opposition to businesses, financial success based on actual hard work, or equality under the law. Blacks and Muslims, he feels , are not bound by Constitutional law, nor should they be held accountable for crimes they commit. His policies have severely affected the tax base for the city and he apparently expects the federal government to bail the city out. So far, none of this has been addressed by Democrats or the main stream media, despite the importance of this to the US as a country. 

The Democrats are trying to normalize socialist extremism and subversion of the Constitution. Why? Did they not all take an oath to “protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign or domestic”? That oath does not have an expiration date. Apparently, the Dems think themselves too enlightened to actually keep their promises and oaths. It is unfortunate that there really is no place for a moderate or centrist in the Democratic Party. One must: A. Hate Trump, even when he is right. b.Hate Trump, because Orange man bad! C. hate yourself for being white, or if you aren't white, hate whites for being white. D. Despise the traditional family, and hate men for being toxic. E. Hate and kill unwanted babies, and pretend it is moral to kill them. F. embrace ethnic cleansing against whites, but pretend it isn't happening. G. Hate Christianity for pointing out Moral values, support Islam, because either tisn't Christianity, but NEVER examine what Islam actually teaches and practices, because liberals are all about gays and grooming kids for pederasty, while accusing the other side of being pedophiles. Remember, lying is only lying when Conservatives do it.

At least one legislator has enough sense and gumption to address a lot of the problem, get foreign nationals out of federal government. Even Mexico has that much common sense. No foreign born in Mexico, naturalized or not, can hold office, nor have unrestricted freedom to purchase land. Their national language is Spanish, and that is what everyone speaks, period, no exceptions. Foreign languages are taught in college, but everyone is expected to learn and use Spanish in public, institutions and educational settings. Also their borders to the south are highly secured, and illegally entering their country carries harsh punishment. They keep the US border open so they can dump their mentally ill, criminals and other undesirables across the border into “El Norte”. Maybe we should banish all our illegals to Canada. I’ll bet the liberals there would sing a different tune if we did that. 

Only citizens may legally vote. No illegal is, by federal law, allowed to obtain an interstate commercial license, own a weapon or vote. No illegal may legally obtain any federal or state assistance. The Dems totally ignore the law and nobody’s doing anything about it. Conservatives, especially white conservatives, are expected to toe the line, but not liberals. The two tiered law enforcement is so common nobody even expects the Left to have to obey the law. That should scare the hell out of everyone. The MSM SHOULD be all over that like white on paper. They aren’t and a lot of this is due to Soros and foreign interests (eg CCP) outright owning MSM and most Democrats. Yes, it’s a bad as that, but we are so conditioned to being ashamed of patriotism, whitenesss, obeying the law and simple truth, we can’t bring ourselves to act as we should. Thomas Jefferson was a prophet of sorts. “When the government fails to carry out its duties and to protect its citizens, it is their prerogative to take action to secure those rights by force of arms if necessary.” 

Vigilante Law was a direct result of corruption and laisse faire attitude by government and law enforcement. The courts have lost their ability to deal justly with the public. We need to act with reason and if that fails, with force. Time to weed the garden and take out the trash. IT is past time to stop the majority from taking orders from the minority, now. 

Mamdani shows his colors. Equity over equality.

 If you have a flat tire, you (assuming simple rationality) add air to the tire. That is logical, rational and it works. Equality is like that, a level playing field where everyone gets ahead by hard work and personal achievement. Equity means that, like in a caste system, one's skin color and race determine one's plae in life. Mamdani wants to make NYC the starting point for a political ideology and movement advocating for the unity of Muslims worldwide under one Islamic state, often a caliphate, or through an international organization based on Islamic principles (Sharia). It promotes solidarity, the "ummah" (Muslim community) as the primary allegiance, and often serves as a form of anti-colonial resistance to Western influence. Under this system (as under the ideal Liberal society) the approach to a flat tire is to take the air out of the other three. The entire approach to problems by the Left requires exceptional energy in it's defense. Leftist ideology is not much into the objective reality category. 

What I find interesting in the Islam-Leftist love affair is that about everything the Left promotes is anathema to Islamic ideology.It is Haram,Haram is an Arabic term meaning "forbidden" or "prohibited" in Islamic law.Muslim dominated countries stone women who try to demand self determination or leave their husbands, or try to get an abortion. Gays are stoned, thrown off buildings, or in some cases, burned alive. Sharia law is not attuned to personal freedom. The liberal Left has not dealt with reality and shows no potential for doing so. So, the Left is in denial about Islam. They simply hate the Judeo-Christian legacy that much. 

Mamdani is engaged in ethnic cleansing against Christians and Jews in NYC and wants NYC to go the way of London, England. In Muslim areas of London, women cannot walk alone, must wear Hijab (head scarves) and you cannot walk a dog. "grooming gangs" wander the neighborhood, and no non-Muslim girl is safe from rape. Islam does not consider the rape of a non-Muslim girl or woman to be a sin or against the law. However, if one reports that rape by a Muslim, you will be the one arrested for a "hate crime". You can go to prison in the UK if you post anything critical of Islam online. This is what Mamdani and the other Islamists want to do here. Replace US law with Sharia and US culture with Islamic culture.

So mix together DEI,CRT,BUC,Sharia,and anti-White ethnic cleansing and you have the Democratic platform and in the process, the death of American tradition, family and the Constitution. It is Satan's own brew of poison for traditional family values and freedom. You should really think about this before voting this year. If you want your grandchildren to worship Allah, wear hijab, spit on the US flag and watch American culture obliterated and replaced with Sharia, by all means vote Democrat.

Our System of governance should be changed

 Our System of Governance Should be Changed.

It occurred to me that if I am going to criticize what the government and various political elements in the country are doing, I should rightly have an alternative to present. That being said, I also think that there should be standards by which any system of laws should be judged 

So lets start with an overriding concern. The function of law is to serve the populace, not the converse. As it stands, the law (and the government) act in their own interest, not the best interest of the population at large. That is to say, government and the laws perpetuating its existence act to support and enable that government, not the will and interest of the population. 

It is further true that there are subsets of the population that are favored by the laws and the government which is formed by them. Since the motivation of the government is to maintain itself, not to serve the bulk of the population, it follows that that portion of the population which is most able and willing to support and maintain that government is most favored by that government. “Them what has, gets” is an aphorism that summarizes the actual functioning of the present government. It can be made more technical and detailed, but no more true in it's presentation. 

History, for those interested enough to study it, points out that this descent into pragmatic servitude to the wealthy is a failing of most all governments in history. However, history also provides an ideal that could and probably would minimize this tendency. 

“Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus was a Roman consul (460 BCE) and dictator (458 and 439 BCE), a legendary figure in the early days of the Republic. He responded to a call from the city fathers, left his plow lying in the fields, donned his senatorial toga, and led the Roman forces to victory over the invading Aequi, only to return to his small farm fifteen days later. For generations, he served as the symbol to Romans young and old of what a loyal citizen ought to aspire.

Although Cincinnatus has long been considered a heroic representation of the virtuous Roman citizen, there are some historians who doubt the story altogether, claiming it to be nothing more than a myth. Yet, while there are many who may not accept the story as genuine, they contend that it does not really matter whether or not it is true. As with any myth or legend, the story of the heroic Cincinnatus served a useful purpose by rallying the citizens of the fledgling Republic together as one, demonstrating that a loyal citizen must place the matters of the state over his own self-interest.”

There is some question whether this is historically accurate, but as an idealized principal it has merit. Government by those unwilling to govern,as contradictory as that sounds, is the ideal form of government. Government by conscription may be the closest to an ideal that can be accomplished. We trust the very most important decisions that can be made, life and death, to a jury of twelve. These are conscripted jurors. It works. 

This could well be the standard for any governmental body or group. If legislators were lay people, conscripted like jurors for a certain period of time and given clear standards and structure for writing and passing laws, the law itself would become clear, straightforward and functional. Most of the millions of dollars spent yearly to pay lawyers and judges to interpret the laws passed by other lawyers would not be needed. For example, let any bill be presented with a mandatory prologue. This prologue. would state the intent and scope of the law in clear and universally understandable language, and the details of the law, including dates of application and review would be contained in the body of the bill. No additions to the bill would be permissible, as this is one of the most easily corruptible aspects of our present congressional system. 

Those holding law licenses would be barred from making laws. The reasoning is simple; lawyers write laws for lawyers, non-lawyers write laws with the sole purpose of making a clear guidance and law. Lawyers would be allowed in the judicial segment of the government and nowhere else. The judiciary would, as they do now, review laws to ensure compliance with the original intent of the Constitution. 

Constitutional issues, such as keeping and bearing arms would not be legislated under the concept of subsidiarity, as would almost all other issues. Subsidiarity is simply the item of social justice that states that problems should be addressed at the point closest to the problem at which that problem can be addressed successfully. Issues like concealed carry of arms should be nationwide, and the sole source of guidance should be the Constitution. Common ares of interest like medical licensure, Nursing and other such licensing should be likewise national in scope. It is intrinsically unfair that any citizen receive lesser protection simply based on geography. 

Issues like education, on the other hand, are definitely best handled at the closest to local level possible. Guidance and standards of performance would be nationwide for reasons given above. The so called Common Core was and is a purely political construct never really meant to improve education, but rather to cater to a political group. Guidance for education would be based on such things as requirements of institutions of higher education admission standards and background minimum standards for successful completion of undergraduate courses. Tech school requirements likewise on the needs of business for entry level employees. Annual review of success would allow adjustment on a close -to-real time basis of the educational standards. 

No form of discrimination should be tolerated, including the most prevalent and subversive form of affirmative action. All success must be based on personal accomplishment, not adjusted for race, gender or whatever. Personal responsibility and accountability are part and parcel of liberty, as is blind equality. Men are not born equal, they are born with equal right to progress as far as their personal ability will take them. 

The sense of entitlement that has and is paralyzing our nation is directly tied to the failure of the family unit. The activist court and left wing interference in the nuts and bolts of life is not to be tolerated. No one has any right to that which they have not earned, and most especially not to that which someone else has worked for and earned. These must be guiding principles of any and all governance. 

Religious freedom is established in the Constitution and must be clearly and cleanly enforced. Sharia law and such imposition of religious law in any form is unconstitutional, as is the denial of anyone to practice their belief. The caveat is the humanistic ideal that (in religious practice specifically) “an it harm none, do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law”. 

Biological sex determination is also part of Natural Law. All religious proscriptions aside, the nuclear family is and has been the means of survival and development of the human race. The basis of society should be legally, morally and practically the support and clear defense of the nuclear family and biological gender identity. Any governmental support, tacit or otherwise of any deviant of that natural order should be strictly disallowed. Individual decisions on lifestyle, as and in religion and its practice likewise should follow the earlier example “an it harm none, do as thou wilt shall be the whole of the law”. No religious belief system should influence the law more than any other. That being said, the personal practice of religion, like keeping and bearing arms “ shall not be infringed'. There is nothing in this system and approach to governance. that is not doable, nor anything that can be cast upon as “racist”, “sexist” or other “ists”. It is simply a realistic and practical approach to fair and efficient governance. 

CIA whistleblowers reveal Obama conspired to illegally remove Trump from office and committed sedition

 

Obama, along with Biden and Hillary Clinton falsified intelligence reports and created a false FISA to attempt to remove Trump from office under false pretenses. A group of CIA whistleblowers (https://www.dni.gov/index.php/newsroom/press-releases/press-releases-2025/4090-pr-18-25) have come forward to corroborate a buried intel action that proves this claim. Tulsi Gabbard has called for an investigation of Obama and the others involved in the Russiagate hoax and is accusing Obama and others of sedition. 

While I am sure the Democrats will either try to bury this, and/or create some kind of diversion, the fact remains that the Obama administration and the Democrats in Congress lied to the United States citizens and tried to undermine and remove under false pretenses, a duly elected sitting President. There is no way to get around this, no way to spin it. The fact is that the Democras, including Schiff, Schumer, Pelosi, Nadler, Swalwell, and the rest of the Obama administration committed deliberate sedition and lied to the public. 

This is grounds for criminal prosecution and if proven in court, prison time for all involved. It may also reveal the involvement of the CCP and the Russian government via the Soros organization and Swallwell’s  infamous CCP allegiances. There is absolutely no doubt that there is sufficient grounds for a special prosecutor investigation into this. I might add that it will be interesting to see if the Democrats pursue this investigation with the same intensity they went after Trump, and it will reveal whether or not they are as hypocritical and dishonest as I believe they are.
