Most of us have watched, with disgust, the massive misrepresentation of current events by the Democrat Party and its partners in the MSM. The sad reality is that they would prefer to do absolutely nothing about the millions of people who are in this country illegally. This is so bad that they even allowed some of the most dangerous criminals on this earth walk free. They labor under the illusion that if we treat bad people fairly, they will stop being bad. There is zero evidence to support this opinion. There is a mountain of evidence to show why this approach has always failed.

Now we have violent protests in Los Angeles and other cities designed to force the Trump administration to stop enforcing immigration laws. Just think about that. When these protests turn extremely violent, they are furious not at the violent protestors, but rather Donald Trump for daring to send in the National Guard to restore order.

These are the same people who have lied to us continually about everything. They lied about Joe Biden, ignoring the dangerous reality of having a Commander in Chief, President of the United States, who was mentally incapable to performing the awesome duties of that position. Then, when he is finally removed from office by an overwhelming vote for Donald Trump, they are trying to convince us that Donald Trump is the threat to Democracy. Do they really believe that?

But the problem is far worse than that. They have ignored the indisputable fact that Iran has been sponsoring terrorism all over the world. They downplay the horrific attack on Israel by Hamas and argue that it is Israel who is the threat to world peace by working to defeat Hamas.

Now we learn that Iran was extremely close to getting a Nuclear Weapon. Thank you, President Obama. Thank you, President Biden. It is now clear that Iran has zero interest in anything other than obtaining a nuclear weapon, that it intends to use against Israel and against us. It is impossible to overstate the threat to the entire world if a terrorist state like Iran obtains a nuclear weapon. If that happens there is no possibility of a good outcome.

Hiroshima and Nagasaki taught us all about the horrific damage that can be done by nuclear weapons. Today the weapons are much smaller, and they can do much more damage.

Last night Israel launched an attack on Iran and on its nuclear capacity. This is likely to last for several days. So far, while the rest of the world is doing nothing to help, they also aren’t condemning Israel. That is an enormous clue regarding the seriousness of this threat.

We all better hope and pray that Israel gets the job done. It is time for everyone to stop playing partisan politics and work together to protect this country. One of the major problems with all those illegal immigrants let in by several Presidents, but especially Joe Biden, is that at least some of them are dangerous terrorists. We can be certain that some of them were sent here by Iran, and they are likely to at least try to attack us and inflict the most horrific damage possible.

Since the people came into the country with no documentation, we don’t even know how many are here. It is sad that some good people, trying to be productive, will also be picked up by ICE and deported. But the blame for that falls on the people who let this happen, without regard to the consequences. Well welcome to the consequence.

In the meantime, pray that Israel succeeds. The cost of failure is beyond imagination.

When Donald Trump was elected President in 2016, he did not understand the deep state and he was unprepared to deal with it. Some federal officials view the President as a transient figure in the Oval Office. If they don’t like him, they just ignore him or even sabotage him, certain that they will remain in power long after he finished his term of office. (I used him because, so far, all U.S. Presidents have been male.)

If you want to see a parallel of this, check out the Cambridge Spies miniseries from 2003. It tells the all too true story of five Cambridge students recruited by the Russian KGB.

The series concentrates on Guy Burgess, Kim Philby, Anthony Blunt, and Donald MacClean. John Cairncross was also recruited at Cambridge. He worked as a German Translator at Bletchley Park, contributing to the ENIGMA/Ultra project. This gave him access to secret information he gladly supplied the Soviet Union in direct opposition to Churchill’s orders.

https://ahf.nuclearmuseum.org/ahf/profile/john-cairncross/

He was awarded the Order of the Red Banner (a Soviet military decoration). Incredibly he was transferred to MI6 and later he returned to the Treasury. It is believed that he provided the Soviet Union with information regarding the Atomic Bomb.

When Burgess and McClean fled England to avoid investigation, handwritten notes found in Burgess’s home were linked to Cairncross. He denied being a Soviet Spy. But was forced to resign from the resign from civil service. Incredibly, he moved to the United States where he taught at Northwestern University and Case Western Reserve University.

When Kim Philby defected to the Soviet Union in 1964. Cairncross finally admitted to being a Soviet Spy but was never prosecuted. He wrote memoirs bragging about this in a book called “The Enigma Spy,” published in 1997, two years after his death.

I did not watch the entire series, because it was too disgusting. But one of the significant things was that Guy Burgess was caught doing something extremely disgusting. This was covered up by “the British establishment” at Cambridge which told Burgess he was part of the club so they would protect him. While this may not be historically accurate, it is extremely accurate in portraying the un-elected elitists who consider themselves destined, by the God they don’t believe in, to make decisions for everyone else.

It would be naïve to believe that such people do not also exist here, in the U.S. They are equally arrogant, contemptable, and stupid. Nothing matters to them other than retaining personal power.

This helps explain why the FBI, the CIA and others were more than willing to do anything and everything to obstruct Donald Trump during his first four years in office. It explains the unprecedented lawfare against him using non-existent facts and ridiculous arguments to obtain convictions against him in hopelessly prejudiced courts. This was done solely so they could call him a convicted felon and prevent him from winning.

But he did win, he knows all about the deep state and he is determined to defeat it. We better hope he succeeds. Those remaining in power and their friends in the MSM are still on a mission to stop Trump, which is why the attack, lies, and misinformation continue daily. Whatever Trump does is horrible, and everything he says is dismissed as a lie. None of this requires any facts or evidence.

But there is a problem. In their desperation to destroy Trump, the Deep States is exposing itself as never before with disastrous results. Ironically, replacing Donald Trump with Joe Biden as President may lead to their downfall. The truth is coming out, it is extremely ugly, and it is increasingly difficult to ignore. Joe Biden, a mentally deficient “placeholder” President vacationed on the beach while unelected elitists made incredibly stupid decisions that destroyed our economy and left the world on the brink of war with Iran racing toward a nuclear weapon that they would be almost certain to use. Yet if you ask any of them about this, they will argue that Joe did an excellent job.

One thing the deep state has in common with the Cambridge five is that even when confronted with their treachery, they never considered admitting they were wrong. So don’t expect the members of the deep state to ever admit they were wrong either. Instead, they will continue to blame everything on Donald Trump, foolishly expecting the American people to buy this nonsense. Fortunately, few are buying this nonsense anymore and ultimately this is how Donald Trump will deep six at least part of the deep state.

Benedict Arnold has become synonymous with “treason and betrayal.” He was a major general in the American Continental army who fought with distinction. George Washington placed Arnold in command of West Point. But it turned out that Benedict Arnold was a traitor, who secretly planned to surrender West Point to the British.

Benedict Arnold – General and Traitor, Age, Married, Children and more

Benedict Arnold is hardly the only person discovered to be a traitor. What made him famous was the significance of the position of power he held and the absolute and complete betrayal of those who trusted him. If he had been successful in surrendering West Point, the results of the American Revolution might have been very different.

Recently the Democrat Party and its supporters in the MSM have been exposed as modern-day Benedict Arnolds. Their irresponsible behavior and betrayal put not only our National Security, but also our democracy at risk. The reason the President of the United States has such enormous power is that this position is directly responsible for protecting this country against the worst imaginable threats. A President of the United States may be confronted with making decisions that could impact every person on this planet. The President of the United States has the authority to launch a nuclear attack against our enemies. It is unthinkable to put such power in the hands of someone who lacks the mental capacity, character, and experience necessary to manage such power responsibly.

Joe Biden was given this power, even though the Democrat Party and the MSM knew, or should have known, that he was unqualified to manage the awesome responsibilities of this office. The coverup of Joe Biden has been shredded and even some people who thrived in maintaining the coverup are pretending they are also shocked. Only a fool dominated by Trump Derangement Syndrome would even consider believing them. It is now clear, that in addition to the obvious mental decline, Joe Biden has been seriously ill with prostate cancer for many years. No one even pretends that Joe Biden was remotely capable of being President, yet the coverup continued until Joe’s performance in that debate with Donald Trump made his mental incompetence too obvious for anyone to ignore.

Historically Speaking: Benedict Arnold tries to justify his treason

The Democrat Party and the MSM have been caught with eggs benedict all over their faces. Like Benedict Arnold, they betrayed us all and put the entire world at risk. Benedict Arnold never admitted to his mistake. Instead, he wrote an open letter to “the inhabitants of America.”

“Very few words, however, shall suffice on a subject so personal, for to the thousands who suffer under the tyranny of the usurpers in the revolted Provinces … as to that class of men who are criminally protracting the war from sinister views, at the expense of the public interest, I prefer their enmity to their applause.”

He stupidly thought people would ignore his treason and embrace the ridiculous. Sound familiar? It didn’t work. Instead, he was burned in effigy and his name became synonymous with treason and traitor.

New London’s Tradition of Burning Benedict Arnold…in Effigy – Who Knew? – Connecticut History | a CTHumanities Project

He escaped to England. He was not buried with military honors, although one of his descendants funded research that reached the conclusion that he actioned with pure intentions. Few bought that then and few buy it now.

Benedict Arnold’s London Residence – Atlas Obscura

Those who have eggs benedict all over their faces, do not deserve any praise, they are nothing more or less than traitors who committed treason. But perhaps, the more important question is: “if they were lying about this, what else were they lying about.” For years these same people told us that the big lie was Trump claiming the 2020 election was stolen. They routinely demanded people confirm that the 2020 election was valid. The sad reality is that this election was “ratified” before it was “verified.” The more we learn, the more questions raised. The only thing we know for sure, at this point, is who was lying about nearly everything, and who was not.

The most significant thing to remember about Benedict Arnold is that once he was exposed, no one ever trusted him again. That is exactly what people should learn from “eggs benedict.”

The Democrat dream team has produced a real nightmare. They had defeated Donald Trump and selected Joe Biden to be our Commander in Chief. It is now beyond obvious that he was never close to being qualified for the position. But that didn’t matter. He wasn’t Donald Trump and nothing else mattered.

But there was a problem. Joe was the problem. They successfully hid him during the 2020 campaign. They tried to hide him during his entire Presidency. Every appearance was carefully choreographed. If there were reporters involved, they were given written questions for which Joe had answers written for him by someone else. But the problem is that Joe is, well, Joe. The minute he went off script he started spouting nonsense and told ridiculous stories about personal accomplishments that were not only false, but they were also absurd. For example, he bragged about hitting a ball off the fence during a congressional baseball game. This was so absurd that even Snopes could not pretend this was close to accurate.

Did Biden Get a Mighty Hit at Congressional Baseball Game in the ’70s? | Snopes.com

Many people knew about the problems with Joe Biden. They all conspired to hide this the American people. Congressional Democrats expressed outrage if anyone dared question Biden’s mental acuity. We were constantly told he was as sharp as a tack. The fawning MSM went along with the cover-up. Then there was the famous debate with Donald Trump, and Joe was so horrible that the cover-up fell apart. It was too late to hold a real primary, so they were stuck with Kamala Harris, the ultimate DEI choice. Biden repeatedly said his VP would be a Black female. He chose Kamala Harris. The same Kamala Harris who was the first candidate to drop out of the 2020 Presidential primaries.

Recently there have been several people who decided to come clean regarding Biden’s mental decline. Of course they are lying about the timing, but at least they finally admit the decline is too obvious to ignore. This was bad enough, then the Hur tapes, where Biden was interviewed regarding his mishandling of classified files were released, and oh boy. All the usual suspects who trashed Hur and tried to pretend that Joe was still as sharp as a tack were exposed as total frauds.

Now Democrats are engaged in a circular firing squad, taking pot shots at each other. No one was buying this, so, in an act beyond desperation they disclosed that Joe Biden was also terminally ill with an aggressive form of prostate cancer. Apparently, they thought the sympathy vote would overwhelm all the negativity. But they missed something big. His cancer is so advanced that he has had this for years. His medical providers are either incompetent or they conspired to hide this from the American people. While a lot of people are genuinely sad to see anyone with this prognosis, it does not detract from the cover-up regarding everything Joe Biden. In fact, it just makes the cover-up look even worse.

The only justification for any of this is Trump Derangement Syndrome. Biden was selected to be the candidate in 2020 for two reasons. One, he wasn’t Bernie Sanders. Two, the other candidates were so awful that it was decided Joe was the only one with a chance to beat Donald Trump. Qualifications for the job were not a consideration.

Democrats and the MSM has been lying about everything for years. They constantly misquoted Trump or took things out of context. They consistently covered up for Joe Biden. The lying about Trump has not changed, but they can’t even pretend that Joe Biden was remotely qualified. They just blame everything and everyone other than themselves. They consider themselves the “dream team” but they are just a nightmare.

The following article on MSN is a classic example of what is seriously wrong with the MSM. In their lust to trash Donald Trump, at any cost, they continue to distort reality. Whether this is simply the result of stupidity or is a continuing effort to put Democrats in power permanently, the effect is the same.

Retirees face potential 33% benefit cut under new tax plan; Here’s why

“While this might initially seem beneficial, experts warn it could lead to a significant reduction in Social Security benefits, potentially cutting them by 33% by 2035.”

Trump wants to eliminate tax on Social Security benefits because people who paid for Social Security Benefits, for years while being employed, should not be punished by continuing to pay taxes after retiring. Seems simple, but the MSM has somehow decided this will cause social security benefits to be cut by 2035.

Republicans have never cut Social Security benefits. Obama cut them, three times, by not approving a cost-of-living increase.

The following chart by AARP shows social security COLA increases by year:

History of Social Security COLA Increases by Year

2010 – Obama – 0

2011 – Obama – 0

2016 – Obama – 0

If Social Security runs out of money, the person most to blame was President William Jefferson Clinton. The following article from factcheck.org documents this.

The Budget and Deficit Under Clinton – FactCheck.org

“Clinton’s large budget surpluses also owe much to the Social Security tax on payrolls. Social Security taxes now bring in more than the cost of current benefits, and the “Social Security surplus” makes the total deficit or surplus figures look better than they would if Social Security weren’t a factor.”

This was ignored by the MSM. Republicans tried and failed to get Clinton to stop “Washington’s budget practice of stealing from the Social Security Trust Fund.”

GOP House leaders want Clinton to recommit to Social Security ‘lockbox’ – September 14, 1999

So once again the MSM, encouraged by irresponsible and deliberately misleading attacks by the increasingly left-wing Democrat Party, is falsely accusing Republicans of cutting Social Security. Once again, they ignored the person who deserves most of the blame, Bill Clinton. In fairness both Reagan and George H.W. Bush also spent part of the Social Security surplus. Bill Clinton just had more funds available, and he did this at the worst possible time. If a private insurance company managed money like Social Security the management would be lucky to avoid criminal prosecution.

Neither party should be proud of this, but at least Republicans tried to fix this in 1999, and they tried again in 2023.

As far as I can tell the strategy of the MSM and the Democrat Party is to focus on pointing fingers at Republicans, hoping no one will notice the real facts. The good news is that both the MSM and the Democrat Party have been caught lying too many times that fewer people buy this nonsense anymore. My sad prediction is that both parties will just kick the can down the road, hoping once again, that tomorrow never comes. Or perhaps, more accurately, that if tomorrow comes it will be “someone else’s problem”

The Hippocratic Oath is historically taken by physicians setting standards of performance. It was designed to hold doctors to a high ethical standard. Lately, it appears that a high percentage of Democrat leaders and their fawning supporters in the MSM have instead taken the “Hypocritical Oath.”

Following is the standard definition of hypocrite:

HYpocrit – Search

“The term “hypocrite” refers to a person who puts on a false appearance of virtue or religion or someone who claims to have particular moral beliefs but behaves in a way that contradicts those beliefs. Essentially, a hypocrite is someone who preaches one thing but practices another.”

Democrats routinely express outrage at Republicans for allegedly doing things they have done. The most classic example is regarding political lawfare. The Biden Administration and local prosecutors were fully engaged in investigating Trump in an attempt to convict him of something. The result was a serious of show trials that often-required Trump’s personal attendance during his campaign for President. He was “convicted” of violating campaign finance laws by allegedly authorizing a payment to silence Stormy Daniels. This case was so flimsy even the federal prosecutors refused to file. So, Leticia James, who ran on a campaign to investigate Trump and convict him of something, chose to charge Trump for a state crime based on a federal statute, the feds were unwilling or unable to prosecute. Then he was tried for mortgage fraud for allegedly overstating his real estate assets. The bank involved had no complaints and no one lost any money. But facts are irrelevant to an out-of-control prosecutors and a jury hand picked out of a region where 80% of the people voted for Biden.

Democrats routinely call Trump a convicted felon. Both cases will almost certainly be dismissed by a higher court. But that was never the goal. The sole goal was to allow Democrats to refer to Trump as a convicted felon. Something they continue to do to this very day.

Now new Prosecutors are pursuing Democrats who committed real crimes for which there is tangible evidence. In response, Democrats who rejoiced at lawfare against Trump, are horrified that it would be used to prosecute obviously guilty people. No one is above the law, unless, of course, one is a Democrat politician.

There are numerous other examples, but it would get boring to list them all. Another recent example is Democrats hyperventilating over Trump deporting an MS13 gang member here illegally, while ignoring the inconvenient fact that both Clinton and Obama deported large numbers of people with no hint of “due process.” Again, the standard is if a Democrat politician does this, it is fine, but if Trump does it, a crime against humanity.

The bottom line is that whenever a Democrat accuses Trump of doing something, one should consider investigating similar actions taken by Democrats. Do not be surprised to learn that, once again, Democrats have elevated hypocrisy to whole new level. I call it the “Hypocritical oath,” since so many of them have sworn allegiance to this. Of course, the members of the MSM who swore allegiance to the same oath are extremely unlikely to notice.

Sometimes it is hard to tell if Trump is very quick to respond or if something was his plan all along. One prime example was when he announced that Matt Gaetz was his nominee for Attorney General. That shot was heard round the world, with massive opposition from both sides of the aisle. I have to admit when I first read this, I thought it was a joke. Matt Gaetz is a very bright and interesting, guy who knows how to draw attention. He also comes with a record amount of baggage. In addition, he had somehow managed to make himself hated almost equally by both parties.

Well, that didn’t last long, did it. Matt Gaetz resigned from Congress. He was replaced in congress by a strong Republican you don’t know, and that was the point. Trump rather quickly withdrew his nomination and replaced him with Pam Bondi, who coasted through confirmation. Game, set, match.

There are certain RINO Republicans who can be counted on to always put their own self interests above the party and certainly well above supporting Donald Trump. Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins top the list, with Mitch McConnell frequently joining in on the chorus. More recently, Senator Thom Tillis announced that he could not approve of Ed Martin for U.S. Attorney in D.C. He was fine with Martin, anywhere else, but not D.C. The reason was that Tillis still breaks out into a cold sweat at the thought of January 6^th, which genuinely scared a lot of people used to living in the protective Washington D.C. Capital bubble.

So Martin is withdrawn, and replaced by, wait for it, Judge Jeanine Pirro. Good luck with Murkowski and Collins objecting to a female, who is the daughter of Lebanese American parents! She isn’t exactly your traditional Anglo-Saxon white girl. Meantime Ed Martin is moving to the Department of Justice as the new Director of the Weaponization Working Group, Associate Deputy Attorney General and Pardon Attorney. Nice! Whether intentional or not, Trump may have just pulled off the ultimate bait and switch, again.

Some people believed that Washington D.C. started out as a swamp and never changed; that is not exactly true. It actually was firm, dry riverbank, which slopes steadily upward from the Potomac, between Rock Creek and the Anacostia River.

The Myth That Washington Was a Swamp Will Never Go Away

If you want money from the federal government, this is the place to be. About 90% of people living in DC are Democrats, 8 percent are independents, and probably 2% admit, or perhaps pretend, to be Republicans. That is why liberals love dragging people they want to convict into a DC court room. It is why so many January 6^th defendants were convicted and given long prison sentences. It is why people charged with crimes, were acquitted despite mountains of evidence presented by Special Counsel John Durham. Durham, a highly respected prosecutor. He took years to develop airtight cases that were laughed out of court because the defendants were Democrats and the court was in Washington D.C. Predictably, this has become a haven for criminals and while violent crime statistics have been improving, they are still bad. Ed Martin was actually doing a good job at fixing that, which is probably another reason why Democrats and RINOs were so determined to see him go.

Welcome to Judge Jeanine, famous for being on THE FIVE, who is only 5’ 4” and not exactly famous for backing off. She was a determined prosecutor, a judge and finally,  District Attorney of Westchester Country. She is not exactly afraid to state her opinions and she is very, very bright. Liberal Democrats are throwing up and wishing they had Ed Martin back. RINO Republicans are wondering how they can oppose this nomination and have any change of winning re-election. Conservatives are having trouble suppressing the giggles. When I told my wife who Trump nominated to be the U.S. Attorney for DC, she literally laughed out loud and asked, “Are you serious?”

Here’s the even better news. If the Senate doesn’t like her, Trump will just withdraw the nomination and pick someone else. Has anyone seen Matt Gaetz lately.

It has been interesting to see Kash Patel transforming the FBI. In his recent hearing before congress, several Democratic Senators chose to tell deliberate lies and distortions about him and tried to prevent him from responding.

Unlike RINO Republicans, Patel did not back down an inch. Instead, he stood his ground and pointed out, correctly, that those Democratic Senators had zero facts to support their allegations.

Since taking over as Director of the FBI, Patel has been busy conducting investigations and prosecuting serious criminals like human traffickers. The FBI, in cooperation with the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York just announced a formal investigation into serious allegations against Leticia James. If any of the allegations described in media reports are accurate, she could be looking at some very serious jail time.

More importantly, Patel has zero interest in photo-ops. He is not going to prosecute someone for political reasons. But he is going to conduct serious investigations, when there is real evidence, and if crimes have been committed, the FBI will assist U.S. Attorney’s in developing cases for trial with the intent of obtaining convictions.

In addition, Patel is cleaning house at the FBI. Agents who participated in the political weaponization projects during the Biden administration are quickly being phased out. Odds are there are a lot of honest FBI agents who were abhorred and probably embarrassed by the overt politicization of the FBI at the expense of pursuing real criminals doing real crimes.

But, as always, the proof is in the pudding. If you listen to Democrats and their fawning supporters in the MSM, Republicans are hopelessly corrupt. If you listen to Republicans and their fawning supporters in conservative media, then Democrats are hopelessly corrupt. One suspects that there is a significant amount of corruption in both parties, but since Democrats had unchecked power for so long, odds are they are leading the field.

In addition, Democrats have been telling so many obvious lies for so long that it is hard to take them seriously on any issue. Ironically, if Trump were truly corrupt, Democrats would shoulder much of the blame because they have been so careless in tossing around frivolous charges that few would believe them if he actually did something truly awful.

All we know for sure is that, as of now, Republicans are acting as the only adults in the room while Democrats are resorting to outrageous lies and misinformation focusing on photo ops. They have gotten away with this for so long because of the willingness of the MSM to ignore the obvious that they appear to have forgotten how to even pretend to be adults. In some ways this is like the spoiled child whose parents made little or no effort to teach responsible behavior. When children like this try to get away with this childish behavior in the real world, they are often shocked to learn that this doesn’t work outside of the liberal parenting bubble in which they were raised.

Perhaps the real Kash crop will be forcing Democrats to live in the real world, with real consequences and equal justice under the law, a concept they don’t begin to understand. But when people like Leticia James learn about this the hard way, with the whole world watching, it won’t take long before everyone starts to understand. When that happens, the few remaining smart adults in the Democratic Party are likely to seize the day. Don’t be surprised if some of them turn on those in power who naively think they are above the law. In addition, don’t be shocked to see a long line forming at the “let’s make a deal” counter, because the first people to figure this out have a lot better chance of surviving or at least avoiding long prison sentences.

Once again Kash Patel has demonstrated that he is a serious man in a serious position. He does not need to hyperventilate trying to score political points without bothering to pass Go or collect $200. He just needs to do his job, the way it was always intended to be done. To do proper investigations and to follow the facts and the law regardless of where that leads. What a remarkable concept. It is about time.

We lived in Folsom for many years and I still own an insurance agency located there. Contrary to what people think, Folsom is a pretty conservative place. Most of California is pretty conservative it is just that politics are dominated by major metropolitan areas totally out of touch with the majority of the state.

This it is why it was interesting to learn that Bernie Sanders and AOC showed up at a rally in Folsom and apparently drew a large crowd of about 30,000. Bernie Sanders described Folsom as a pretty rural area, which would be quite a surprise to people who actually live there. In 2023 Folsom had over 84,000 residents and the city has grown significantly since then. It is one of the fastest growing cities in the country.

In addition, Folsom is a little over 18 miles from Sacramento. You know, Sacramento the Capital of California. There are a little over 2.2 million people living in the Sacramento metropolitan area. This is hardly what one would describe as “rural.”

Folsom is famous for Folsom prison, because of Johnny Cash’s hit song, “Folsom Prison Blues.” One would think that Johnny Cash spent time as a prisoner in Folsom prison, but  he was never there until years after he wrote his song and that was to perform a concert for the prisoners.

By the way, the lyrics of the song are ridiculous. “When I was just a baby my mama told me “Son, always be a good boy, don’t ever play with guns” But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die When I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry.”

Reno is in Nevada. Folsom is a California State prison. If you shoot someone in Reno, Nevada you don’t end up in Folsom, California. In addition, I have toured Folsom, Prison and while there are train tracks in Folsom, I doubt seriously one could hear a train whistle in Folsom Prison. Interestingly, you can’t actually see much of Folsom Prison from Folsom because it is located in a valley. Folsom Prison isn’t even technically in Folsom, it is in Repressa. Of course Repressa is in the middle of Folsom.

We know a lot of people in Folsom, so we asked them about the big rally. They just laughed and said people were bused in from other places and many of them were paid to be there.

In a way, Bernie Sanders, AOC, and the entire Democrat Party can be correctly described as the Folsom Prism Blues. A prism was designed to break up light into a spectrum allowing for spectral analysis. This allowed one to see precisely what made up an object. In other words, looking through a prism can provide a different perspective of things.

That is exactly what is happening to the Democrat Party. When we see the Democrat Party today, we see people like Bernie Sanders and AOC. We see leading Democrats flying to El Salvador, at taxpayer expense, hanging out by the pool in luxury resorts,  to demand due process for a MS13 Gang Banger. We see lie after lie after lie. Trump is routinely compared to Hitler. Yet Democrats have no strategy, other than to give every illegal alien due process, allow transgender men to participate in women’s sports, and take every action that has the potential to stop Trump from governing, while offering absolutely no plan of their own.
