Under the cover of Covid, and now in the shadow of the infamous Election Irregularities of that fated 2020 presidential election, with current emerging alleged election fraud in Nevada and Pennsylvania inconveniently slipping into the public discourse, there is proved a colluded ongoing Election Interference in the nomination of the Republican candidate, the likes of which has never occurred in our Constitutional Republic's history, albeit, the question remains: Do you support the plain-sight Election Interference of the Democratic Socialist party, employing its minions in their Propagandistic Media, and their Two Tiered Justice System?
98.94% No, I do not support Election Interference; I am a patriot unto our Constitution.
1.06% Yes, I do support Election Interference; the alternative, Donald Trump, to this mentally diminished president is far worse.
0% "What, me worry" if elections are rigged?

I was contacted this morning by Monticello, asking for a donation. While those who know me, and perhaps even those who have read my articles, know that Thomas Jefferson is my favorite Founding Father.

It seems fewer and fewer Americans understand and appreciate our very unique system of government. For example, how many times have you heard someone refer to our country as a "democracy" ?

In true government fashion, the NC House has tried to slip a very bad bill past the citizens of North Carolina and has rushed and hushed it in order to prejudice those most harmed, our North Carolina commercial fishermen and our fellow recreational fishermen.

In an era when the States have been reduced to virtual provinces or wards of the federal government and the Tenth Amendment is repeatedly and audaciously ignored, it is refreshing to look back and appreciate how strongly President Calvin Coolidge resisted spending federal dollars on local issues.

While the NC House has been aggressive in its protection for the interests of big hospitals and physicians and other healthcare workers, it has done just the opposite for North Carolina's commercial fisherman.

It was a very sad day in North Carolina yesterday at the NC General Assembly ... a very tragic day indeed. Yesterday, members of the NC House had the opportunity to over-ride Governor Cooper's veto of the "Born Alive Abortion Survivor's Protection Act" (SB-359).

I just finished reading a truly wonderful book - AND THE BAND PLAYED ON, by Randy Shilts. The book chronicles the AIDS epidemic of the 1980's, focusing on the cases, the symptoms, the mystery, the epidemiology, the panic, the politics.

Notice how completely the hospital lobbyists wanted to remove Treasurer Folwell from anything having to do with the State Health Plan. He wasn't even made a "voting" member of the Committee to study the Plan and to come up with a "recommended design" for it.

The "anti-Folwell" bill, HB184 made it out of the Health Committee yesterday, putting it on a course to possibly become law. It is a bill that 2 sides see very differently.

Tomorrow morning (Tuesday), legislators in the House Health Committee will vote on HB184 - a bad bill that will cost taxpayers and State Health Plan members more than $1 million per day if it's enacted.

Try not to think of this day as an opportunity to find a good sale, to finally get the new stove you'd been wanting for years or the new dining room set you've had your eyes on. I'm certainly guilty of that myself.

OK, the loony left has struck again. Liberals/progressives have finally left the planet. Lights out, nobody is home. They've "opened their minds" so much that their brains have literally fallen out.

December 15 marks a very special day in our founding history - On that date in 1791, the first 14 states (Vermont had just been admitted to the Union as the 14th state), ratified the first 10 amendments to the US Constitution, known collectively as our Bill of Rights.
