Good news.

“The Communists’ chief purpose is to destroy every form of independence—independent work, independent action, independent property, independent thought, an independent mind, or an independent man. Conformity, alikeness, servility, submission and obedience are necessary to establish a Communist slave-state.” -Ayn Rand-

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the party is always right.” -George Orwell-

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." -Ronald Reagan-

“If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed;

if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may

come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”

-Winston S. Churchill-

"THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated” -Thomas Paine-

What wonderful quotes from great men! I am copying your whole answer to share w my family & friends when they say I'm making too much of all the shenanigans of the EU, WHO, WEF, FBI, CIA and all the rest of the alphabet soup agencies.

If I may, I'd like to add a couple more:

"A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have." -- Thomas Jefferson

"A man's rights rest in three boxes: the ballot box, the jury box and the cartridge box."

-- Frederick Douglas

Best quotes ever Julin & John. Frederick Douglas' is becoming more timely as we are being pushed into a military confrontation/crisis by the EU and Biden. Of course cartridges mae be ineffective. Better vote Biden out before it's too late.

This will be a wake up call for the elite, who will begin canceling and manipulating elections

Expand full comment

Like Macron just did?

Expand full comment

It didn’t cancel an election even if he has played a lot with the French constitution with the help of advocates and Mac Kinsey and co. As the president he’s allowed to « dissolve » (not sure about the proper word) one of the chambers - the Assemblée Nationale where deputies have a siege -. Rarely used since 1958, and mainly as a political action by the president. Last time being used by Jacques Chirac in 1997 following advices that he will have the majority in the two chambers. Socialists won.

For Macron there was rumors that he will dissolve the Assemblee Nationale if the right wing party win. He didn’t have a full majority since his re-election in 2022 and lots of the important laws decided since COVID-19 have been passed playing with the Constitution despite a huge contestation or even riots.

We’ll see how if will turn for Macron. He should decrease his majority but it could be a calculated move. Without a majority he’ll be able to pass laws using decrees has he’s always doing. And as a showman he’ll justify it saying French people made the wrong choice or anything like this. He said in the COVID-19 that he wanted to « emmerder » the ones who refused the injection and he did it.

French democracy died a few years ago.

As are that of the UK, even Ireland. Both Democracies are being submersed under Socialism, by their own voters and immigrants. Deserve their fates.

Thank you for that information. WOW, their government management model is as ridiculous as ours in Canada if that’s even possible!

Expand full comment

Yes..as it did in every Western Nation!

This whole Agenda is aimed at destroying Western Christian nations!

195 countries signed on to Agenda 2030..only 13 of those nations are ‘Democracies’ so it is letting socialist..and 180 other lawless counties destroy the West..

It’s so obvious..all done in secret by ‘unelected’ persons in EU/UNWHO .. which are funded by private individuals..ie Gates/CCP..Bankers ect..🙏🏽

Good news! I hope a more centrist approach will win. Right-wing governments can be as authoritative and oppressive as left-wing. The pendulum must right itself!

Expand full comment

Nope. What do you think would or could be authoritative and oppressive about a “right wing government”???? Close borders? Tough on crime? Smaller government? List what you are afraid of instead of just the usual fear of “right wing”.

Expand full comment

I think the definition of 'right wing government' needs to be more clearly defined before we start to discuss it.

Expand full comment

Well, take the recent Geert Wilders sort-of win. It leaves "conservative" Mark Rutte as part of the coalition. You may be thinking that's a good thing, but Rutte is one of them. And take Jean-Luc Melancon. He's supposed to be left wing, but by a rational categorization, we would call him populist right. Then, the National Rally, people describe them as populist right. But Le Pen's father was talking about the need in a democracy to rediscover the lost "kingly role" of the state, the role of the investor whose interests are aligned with that of the economy and society as-a-whole.

Finally: it is austerity that has been the punishment stick the European state uses, via the definition of the Euro, it's allowed quantity per member nation, as a ratio of fiscal spending to GDP, to control member nations. And austerity equates to right wing politics. So what you say makes sense on a surface level and has something to it, we need to be a bit precise here, as the other commenter said, about what we mean.

Expand full comment

Austerity is one step removed from the Weimer Republic.

Expand full comment

There are strong parallels, right.

That said, in finally instituting austerity, Minister of Finance, Hjalmar Schacht, effectively ended the hyperinflation--Mosler, Armstrong (book abstract, Weimar...). That said there was significant unemployment, i.e., overshoot, resulting from Schacht's quantitative approach, Mosler and Armstrong suggest.

Putting aside Germany's response, as Allied victor, what how would you have set the Armistice terms? Ideally, the allies could have won a stronger victory, been left less nearly equally economically ruined, and so on and we could have the strong one-sided decision of a *proper hypothetical*.

The problem as I see it was that the major companies were still controlled by the same shareholders, so in back of the democratic Weimar government lay the same leadership of the economic strcture, with unchanged feudal era attitudes.

It’s always centrist more left.

You'll be happy to know that the long biggest group, who also gained the most, are the milquetoast centrists who just follow the money: EPP (Christian Democrats)

--

After them the biggest growers are looking to be Identity and Democracy; who just want to protect European culture, put an end to the illegals terrorism, bring back sovereignty to the member states, and more insight into the doings of the unelected EU feds. Sounds familiar?

--

Next after them you have the Conservatives and Reformists; basically centrist virtue signallers. However, they do claim they want a smaller government and more freedom.

--

Biggest losers are the extreme left groups of Renew & Greens. Which means the mean is even more strongly placed in the centre.

--

Now, to be fair, ~14% of the projected mandates have no stated alignment yet, so it's fully possible that we'll see, for example, an Islam coalition at the end of it. So we'd be back to tilting towards the extreme left.

Agree. While we’ve endured a lot of abuses here in Europe, the last thing we need is an overcorrection too far to the right.

Good news! May the people rise!

No point winning an election unless you actively reverse the policies of destruction that have been put in place. Throw out ALL the left Marxist teachers who are teaching lies to the young. Otherwise they just quietly keep teaching lies and win the next election.

Fabians socialists use his winning strategy. Just keep pushing the way you want to go. Grab the gains. If opposition exists, just push somewhere else or stop quietly for a short time then go again.

This is absolutely outstanding news for Europe…. truly, Truly, I mean this. it really tickles my heart to see this happening. I never really thought we would love to see the day that the majority of European countries, well, maybe not the actual majority, but many of them would wake up.

Socialism is not, Has not, And never will be, a friend to the workingman. And by that I mean the blue collar workingman. Here in the United States, that’s what we call 📞 them. Men that make their living as welders / pipefitters / carpenters / scaffold builders / truck drivers Etc. etc……

To the reader, that possibly reads my comment, hopefully you get the picture of what I am saying. With all this being said, I really feel that I need to say this, I just wish we could have seen Miss Marine Le Pen, Become president of France. It’s not for lack of trying.

It’s not because her heart hasn’t been into it and she’s just been pushed into it. She tried in 2012 / 2017 / 2022. This last election, as far as I know, and I say this to everybody out there, please, by all means, feel free to correct me if I’m wrong. But from everything I’ve read, this last time, she ran in 2022, this was the closest she had come to becoming president.

I wish that our Lord Jesus Christ would make a way for her to become president. I would love to see Donald Trump become our President, And Miss La Pen become the president of France.

This should make us hopeful but find out how many of the candidates are “young global leaders” first. I don’t trust too many politicians . Anyone who stood up during the “p a n d e m i c” got short shrift and is probably back home peeling potatoes . The real problem as I see it, is the majority of the population is now so woke and brainwashed it’s the battle at the coalface that has to be won. But let’s hope !! We certainly need some hope.
