Biden admin asks for 1,500 troops at US-Mexico border

The Biden administration has requested 1,500 troops for the U.S.-Mexico border amid an expected migrant surge following the end of pandemic-era restrictions, according to three administration officials.

The troops would be sent down to focus on administrative tasks so that U.S. Customs and Border Protection can work in the field, two of the officials said. They would not do law enforcement work. The officials were not authorized to speak publicly about the request because it had not yet been approved and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

Bank Stocks Are Crashing

US bank stocks are crashing today. Of all US regional banks, only one is currently trading in a plus as shown in the above image.

Although this is news in Russia, people in the United States are told everything is fine. Currently the market is down 583 points and gold is up $30.30 (going up with a bullet)

You may not be able to eat gold but you certainly cannot eat or barter dollars in a failed banking system (or a digital dollar).

Get Your Money Out of the Banks

S**t Just Hit The Fan Across Markets, Regional Banks Crashing

Weak JOLTS?, Poor factory orders, hot EU inflation, surprise RBA rate-hike, a sudden realization of the urgency and seriousness of the debt ceiling debacle, Europe back from vacation, or just pre-FOMC jitters?

Or was it this!?

As a reminder, the Fed NOW has next week’s dire SLOOS report in hand— zerohedge (@zerohedge) May 2, 2023

Who knows to be frank but everything went just a little bit turbo, starting with a total collapse in regional banks…

And despite the Biden admin claiming that FRC was just another ‘outlier’ business model, PacWest, Western Alliance, and Zions (among others) are in a freefall…

Biden’s Amerika

I stopped at a restaurant yesterday for lunch at 6:00 PM after a meeting. The following message was prominently displayed when we came in. Atmosphere was good, wait staff was adequate and the food was literally inedible.

Another day in the regime’s planned destruction of Amerika. Whenever Biden tells us that MAGA republicans are destroying the country, ask yourself why the leader of any country would not want that nation to be great?

The Wheel

The three articles I linked relate to the theme of futility in varying ways. I shan’t insult my Gentle Readers’ intelligence by explicating them here. Rather, I’d like to add a fourth set of ideas that the events of the past few years appear to imply.

     We look at the actions of the Usurpers and their allies at the state and local level, we note the obvious, easily predictable consequences of their policies, and we shake our heads in disbelief. The consequences are always bad for ordinary Americans. Every one of them conduces to a poorer, less safe, less peaceful, less fecund, and (of course) less free society. And the majority of Americans say wonderingly, “Isn’t that as obvious to them as it is to me?”

     Well, duh! The people doing this to you are not stupid. Evil? Yes. But they know what they’re doing. It pleases them that so many of you continue to think them misguided rather than malevolent.

     The commentator in the video at the third link says it flatly: We’re being made to run on a wheel. Our existences are being reduced to futility by the application of ever harsher constraints and survival pressures. We’re getting nowhere, we’re tiring from the effort, and the Usurpers are making the wheel ever harder to spin.

     The Tennessee Star editorial proposes a “grand alliance” of the great mass of us who want our country back as it was. The Usurpers hope to prevent exactly that, which is the central reason for their policies. As they force Us the People to struggle ever harder to keep ourselves and our loved ones alive, adequately provided for, and reasonably safe, they drain us of the energy that would make it possible to resist them. A man who’s barely succeeding at “treading water” can spare no thought for anything but survival.

     Does that sound like anyone you know, Gentle Reader? Does it sound like you?

The Bad Effect of the Anti-child Mentality Upon Public Policy in America

Martin Luther wrote in his day that “There are many who do not want to have children.” The desire to prevent offspring is nothing new. Man has always, because of self-centeredness and the pursuit of materialism and ease, viewed having many children as a burden, and a detriment to self-fulfillment. But if the conditions of Luther’s day caused him to commiserate, America’s situation today would have put him in a mental hospital with severe depression. Americans have taken what Luther observed in his day to a whole new level. American Christians eat birth control pills like candy while pastors peddle the anti-child mentality in their pre-marriage counseling with the glee of a Fuller Brush salesman.

This anti-child mentality does not bode well for the future of our nation.

I have eleven children; five sons and six daughters. As our numbers increased over the years, I noticed that I became more concerned about the public policies of our nation as the number of our children increased. Why? Because I have a lot invested in the future of our nation – eleven children I care about deeply. I will die, and what kind of nation will I leave my children to live in?

When people do not have children or have their one or two, they tend not to care as much about the future of the nation because they have nothing or little invested int he future of the nation. When they die, it is over, so there is less concern over what is left behind culturally. A man and a woman who have many children, however, tend to care more about the future of the nation because they know that after they are gone, their children and grandchildren will still be here.

I find it interesting that the founding fathers of our nation (back when people were actually having children) had the following priority list – God, Country, Family. The priority list of most American Christians today is – God, Family, Church, Business. Country doesn’t even make the list of American Christians today. Why did the founding fathers (almost all of whom were Christians) put Country before Family? They did so because they knew if the country was sound, their families were safe.

When Christians abandon the arena of public policy, whose public policy do you think is going to rule? That’s right, the policies of wicked men. Our nation is no longer sound, and our families are less safe today precisely because of our neglect of public policy.
