Thank you, Dr Malone, for your beautiful and timely history lesson, analysis, and hope for the future.

My two cents today:

God > Government

Character > Color

Logic + Evidence + Data > “Experts”

<< This is common sense; yet, why is it that everyday Americans can understand this, but the “experts” used by the MSM can’t?

Because those experts aren’t constitutional conservatives or MAGA supporters; they are liberals and progressives who believe that big government, globalism, and a socialist democracy will save America.>>

In the Friday Funnies, Dr. Malone made reference to the "gatekeepers" who were reportedly running the White House behind a cognitively impaired President Biden: Ron Klain, Robert Bauer, and Anita Dunn, with the latter two being a married couple. Both the Wall Street Journal and The Daily Caller posted articles years ago, reporting that Dunn had expressed admiration for Mao Zedong as one of her "favorite political philosophers."

My concern is that there is a substantial occupation in the federal government by people who are not interested in what will save America. Who in government thought it was a good idea to hand off all of our manufacturing and intellectual property to an ideological foe over a 50+ year period? My concern is that we are waking up to the work of Sun Tzu's intellectual heirs. If memory serves, Dr. Malone has previously made reference to this quote from The Art of War himself:

"Hence to fight and conquer in all your battles is not supreme excellence; supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting."

I admit that I have limited visibility into the inner workings of China. But I suspect that there are CCP officials who smile quietly among themselves as chaos agents shred this country from the inside. Perhaps China has even invested therein. I am always reminded of Yuri Bezmenov's warnings from the 80s.

Anita Dunn and I have something in common. Mao Zedong is my favorite mass murderer.

A good read on this topic is a book titled, "The Hundred-Year Marathon: China's Secret Strategy to Replace America as the Global Superpower" (2015) by Michael Pillsbury.

When modern liberals say America is an experiment, or the founding documents are just old pieces of paper, it’s to get us away from liberty, freedom, property rights or the pursuit of happiness. I’m always amazed how people are so willing to throw the American principles away. It’s amazing how money, coercion or basic brain washing is so successful. We see the power of just being told an experimental “vaccine” is safe and effective over and over again can turn people into lunatics by those that see through the propaganda. I mentioned my new primary care doctor came in the room with a blue mask and a face shield on and told me there were no flu cases in 2020 - 2024 because people wore masks. I mentioned the McCathy study and I could feel his stress going through the roof. This whole government Covid experiment reminded me of a huge scale real life Milgram experiment. People will just do what they are told, even if they know they are hurting people. Milgram said this “It may be that we are puppets-puppets controlled by the strings of society. But at least we are puppets with,perception, with awareness. And perhaps awareness is our first step to liberation. Memorial Day is a great day for liberation of our minds. Happy Memorial Day everyone!!J.Goodrich

England offers and example of what happens when the populace are addicted to gov handouts, especially when they allow import of masses of addictive populations.

Several years ago I was having dinner with a former professor who was from Britain, bait became a U.S. citizen. We talked about the Muslim invasion and he asked what I thought should be done to cursings it. I said, kick every Muslim “migrant” out of England, and send them back to their own nation. He looked puzzled and bewildered about that answer, but if it’s not done, they will out vote Englishmen, in a few years, and fly the Islamic flag over Buckingham Palace, as they said they would.

England rejected God in the mid-19th Century, and accepted liberal theology, which has destroyed them spiritually.

That same liberal theology jumped over the ocean and affected the East and West Coast—they are spiritually dead. That is why you see the downfall of Harvard, Princeton, who turned hard left—they too have rejected God and their foundation as schools who originally began to teach preachers to spread the Gospel—they are now spiritually dead.

And four years until their next election! Keir Starmer is bad enough, but his flunky cabinet is even worse. It's hard to imagine that every decision they make is the wrong one. Even Joe Biden got the time right twice a day.

Yes, James, when one hears that the Constitution is a living document, there's a good chance the talking points came from Harvard or one of its Ivy School clones. If it is in fact a living document, then it is a worthless piece of paper and can say whatever anyone wants it to say, you know, like men can be women, etc. The LGBTQ (Q+ for short) movement has gotten away with being as foundational as a religion without the Constitutional constraints imposed by the First Amendment. Ditto Woke-ism with its obvious overlaps. President Trump is calling 'em out and folks are waking up, no pun intended.

On the PCP doctor, I am pretty fed up with that whole structure. Since educating myself on supplements and diet changes (much thanks to the late great Andrew Saul) I am rarely sick and push back on ‘standard’ procedures and vaccines with my Dr. I chose her because she is the closest I can get to a Natural MD but still be covered by insurance. I can tell there is a script she is given so she mentions things and doesn’t push back when I say No (for example the HPV vaccine for my child). It’s a constant learning process for me and some family and friends find my supplements, etc odd, yet I am the only one at my age that isn’t sick, achy or needing physical therapy. Dr Malone has said keep reading and I agree!

James- What is the McCathy study? I wonder it is possible to find a primary care physician in Washington DC that has not been brainwashed. Maybe that is a good test:) Thank you! Happy Memorial Day!

The McCarthy Study was an extensive study done on masks and found that they don’t work. I’m sure there are people here that could give you a deeper more scientific answer, but they are very reputable and the liberal media and places like google ignored the data, as usual.

Thank you, James! My favorite analogy on masks is. "Stopping viruses with a mask is like stopping mosquitoes with a chain link fence. It doesn't work" Ian Miller has done a lot of great work on masks. Here is one link: https://open.substack.com/pub/ianmsc/p/it-is-now-clear-why-masks-never-worked?r=3c5c0&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false

Tragically, ChatGPT still thinks masks work and won't even acknowledge that the McCarthy Study exists.

In 1970 there were 200M people in the US. Today there are 330M and probably another 20M uncounted illegals. Of the 130M+ additional population (65%) since 1970 a large portion of them are imports that have no connection to the American experience and who may not share our values or culture. That is the challenge. If we had the same demographic as 1970 we wouldn't be where we are. Trump is winning some of them over... we need more.

Geoff, demographics is part of our current dilemma, however I would venture to say that the biggest factor is the deterioration of our FAMILY UNIT plus ➕️ the infiltration of many of the staunch pillars of our society by the steady pace by the Marxist & socialist parties.

Speaking of words counting. That word alleged...so loved by the media and so insulting to the intelligence of the reader. What it tells me is that the legal profession needs to have its wings clipped because that usage is caused by the fear they have installed in us of....them. Now we even have lawyer's in black robes thinking it is their job to run our Republic by stepping all over our Constitution...a document originally readable by anyone with 8th grade reading skills...probably 4th grade skills when it was drafted. But we have allowed lawyers to legislate in legalese that only they can comprehend. That can and should be stopped. We have arrived at the point where our only opposition to them, jury nullification, has now grown to a need for district court nullification by the states. We have been there for a long time but it has become imperative since the election of Trump. I have often wondered why states, when confronted by patently unconstitutional dictates from some under qualified, over connected black robed activist do not simply ignore them under legal advice from their state AG. That may even resuscitate the10th amendment which has virtually been demolished by these district courts. In short, there must be a better way to run a republic and the federal court system has proved they are not a help but a hindrance.

Great topic for the day. Helpful to have some definitions.

Am hoping the abrupt changes succeed! The Democrats and Globalists are hot on regaining their rule. Good/better times just seems to further inflame them.

For myself, I'm grateful to see a light at the end of the tunnel.

Have a beautiful day in gratitude and remembrance.

Dr. Malone, I was a bit disappointed after seeing the beautiful picture of the outdoor scene of classical musicians and the title of your piece about the new American Enlightenment. I have just read a new book by Robert Ingraham, “In Search of America’s Revolutionary Culture,” on the little known American classical culture of the late eighteenth century, and I thought you might be augmenting Ingraham’s message. While I do agree with the general sentiment you express in your piece, I would differ with your view of the historical American Enlightenment. During the eighteenth century, including in the American colonies, there was a crucial philosophical and cultural battle going on. The founding of the United States came out of the crucible of this battle. One side, in the tradition of the Renaissance and the philosophy of Plato and Leibniz, included most notably Benjamin Franklin, and his mentor James Logan. On the other side, was the Enlightenment with its strictly materialistic view of the universe, as promoted by such as John Locke and Isaac Newton. (Locke, despite his reputation, in his role with the British East India Company’s Board of Trade, defended slavery in the colonies.) Many of our founders reflected some mixture of the two philosophies, but historians have, to a large degree, smothered any mention of the Renaissance/Leibniz tradition, and to our detriment.

Yep. the spiritual side gave way to the so called 'enlightened' but materialistic, scientific side. I've read historical accounts saying it got even more so after Francis Bacon, "becoming more secular and pragmatic in its orientation and moving further and further away from the deeper issues of mankind's spiritual life and purpose. We have made secular life and progress, ruled by our logic, the sole reality we allow in our minds." Quoted from the Celestine Vision (1997).

I’m all for “turning back the clock” but this “Big Beautiful Bill” adds almost 4 trillion to our national debt and DOGE was a big nothing burger. I think there are plans we aren’t privy to. I follow quite a few financial publications and what Trump is most likely trying to do is tank the dollar so our trade is more advantageous to us around the globe. I’ve also heard a re-pricing of gold so our reserves equal more of our debt and this actually has precedence as it’s been three times in the past and gold is highly undervalued. I’m for trying anything and if it hurts for some period of time then that’s what we need to go through and better times will be on the other side. I remember when we had the oil crisis and lines to get gas. I remember our hostages in Iran and when Reagan got elected that shit stopped. The world was done kicking America around and the stain of Vietnam was finally lifting. Times were good under Reagan. I was a kid but had a job and money in my pocket. I also know there was hope. Hope for the future and I’ve watched that hope get crushed. America needs that hope to stay on top. It’s what keeps the ideas flowing and the country on top. Today, remember those who gave all so we can have those hopes.

We can only hope that the tide has turned and the public wants a return to values of the past. The extremes of both sides has pushed many of us into disgust. Fairness demands correction. Whether we can constrain the far left remains to be seen.

It’s past time for us to be returning to the “decent” values of America. I was born in the early 1940s and reached adulthood (21 years) in 1964. The first big downturn was President Kennedy’s assassination in 1963. After that social issues in the country became paramount, eventually leading to a country I didn’t recognize. The progressive left seems to have lost its mind. I’m encouraged, Dr Malone, that you see a returning enlightenment, and I hope it is so. President Trump seems to be forging a way forward, and I pray for his success.
