It’s No Longer Democrats vs Republicans its Communism vs Freedom?

Democrat President  Biden uses his pen and mouth to reverse  policies put in place by  Republican President Trump. 

Than includes Afghanistan.   Biden recently reversed Trump’s policy agreements with the Taliban and betrayed   our Afghanistan allies.  Democrat military  leaders had  no EXIT plan in place  before leaving. We all saw people falling from the sky and chaos at the airport.

Some people think that there is no real difference between Democrat politicians and Republicans.

Brian Raney   of Santa Cruz, CA wrote on Facebook  that “there is no significant difference between Democrats and Republicans other than the ideology to which they give lip service.” He further writes,   “The leadership of both parties are fascists and reactionaries. “   Oh, really?

Let’s look at what t Democrat and Republican politicians actually  DO and not just what they SAY.

There are some  HUGE differences between Democrats and Republicans.

Let’s compare two politicians one Republican and one Democrat.  Andrew Cumeo is Governor of New York.  Ron De Santis is Governor of Florida.  Both are regularly in the news because of their policies.

Long time Democrat politiican, Andrew Cumeo  recently resigned.  What policy is   he known for?  Nursing home deaths.   Cumeo  is directly  responsible for the deaths of thousands of nursing home patients. It was his specific policies which he signed  that killed older adults. Protecting life for the elderly  was not and is not  Cumeo’s policy.

Now let’s consider Ron De Santis,  the  Republican Governor of Florida  and a  known  supporter of Republican  President  Donald Trump. What policies is he known for?  DeSantis is known for his  policies with respect to COVID.    DeSantis  sends the  kids back  to school and  supports no mask policies.  DeSantis  recently  set new speech rules for Twitter. DeSantis’ policies support freedoms  for individuals to make decisions for themselves.

Next question:    Are Democrats more supportive of  communism and Republicans more supportive of  freedom?  Yes …

Communism is an ideology  with policies which demand and enforce control of  ALL   human behavior in the interest of the  state.  Religious freedom and worship of God are stamped out by the  communists.

What did Democrat politicians do during the COVID pandemic?   They limited freedom.  Democrat run states such as CA   closed the churches and kept open the Big Box stores.  Materialism was fine for the Democrats.   Go buy stuff  in BIG BOX  stores without wearing  masks was fine. And it was fine to buy alcohol.   But no,  you cannot go to church except under strict regulations.  CA does this as did many other states run by Democrat politicians.

President Biden  — a Democrat –  says 8/18/2021 that  there must be mandatory vaccination and mandatory wearing of masks. He says this though according to JAMA there are randomized studies showing “no significant difference in transmission of flu” comparing those who wear and those who do not wear masks.

The Gold standard science does NOT support mask wearing.  Democrats such as Biden demand mask wearing.  Why?  Control of behavior.  Create and enforce isolation.  Masks prevent people from seeing  highly important non-verbal communication.  Masks spread fear.  Masks separate people.

Back to the question — is there a real difference between Republicans and Democrats?

The Democrats chose the outcome unwinding  in the middle east.  The Democrats run from freedom and support communism  and the  Taliban.   Advanced communication equipment today  is being dismantled and sent over the border to Pakistan.

The terrorists are on the move thanks to Democrat policies.

ANTIFA is no Lone Ranger with black mask who helps people. Unmask those bad ANTIFA persons!

Remember the Lone Ranger who wore a black mask and helped people?   A man who, with his sidekick Tonto, sought freedom and justice for all?

ANTIFA,  no lone ranger, hides their identity behind black hoods. ANTIFA is   a bunch of violent persons who beat up journalist Andy Ngo in Portland. No arrests were made.Ngo suffers permanent injuries.  Many thousand in Germany lend support to ANTIFA.

Take off those masks from ANTIFA.  Bring justice to Portland and journalist  Mr. Ngo.  Stop this lawlessness in Portland before it spreads.

How control ANTIFA?   Make the wearing of masks and hoods at demonstrations illegal.  Let people assemble and express their views freely   — without masks.

Ladies night out in Israel or Arabia? [U.N. votes Israel as one & only nation that violates women’s rights]

Overall freedom and women’s rights better in Israel or Arabia?  Choose.     Israel  is the one and  only  nation that violates women’s rights,  so says the United Nations (U.N.).

We are taught that all cultures are equal, that they are all equally valuable. We are told that, despite creating the modern, technological world, western, capitalist, mostly white cultures are no better than Arab, Persian, or Islamic cultures anywhere else.

Welcome to the United Nations where magical thinking like this dominates. It’s what makes it difficult to determine whether the U.N. is a circus or an insane asylum.

Case in point; the U.N. Economic and Social Council voted 40-2 (with 9 abstentions) to single out the state of Israel as the only nation that violates women’s rights. Voting in the affirmative were countries where husbands have the “right” to rape and beat their wives (Saudi Arabia), stone women who commit adultery (Iran), and other Middle Eastern and African states where the unspeakable practice of female genital mutilation is routinely practiced and accepted.

Israel was singled out for allegedly being the “major obstacle” for Palestinian women “with regard to their advancement, self-reliance, and integration in the development of their society.”

To cut or not to cut? Infibulate? Rep. Omar’s non-speak on Female Genital Mutilation (FGM)

To cut or not to cut?  Infibulate?     Is Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) an OK practice anywhere? Ms. Illan Omar refuses to answer.

How free  are you when others can cut into your body as a young child?  Bodily integrity is a basic human freedom.

FGM is overwhelmingly practiced in Somalia.  Rep.  Illam Omar,  from Somalia,  probably knows family and others   who have experienced the practice.

Ms. Omar was born and lived in Somalia until age ten.  Overwhelmingly,  98%  of the population in Somalia practices Female Genital Mutilation (FGM).   Young girls  in Somalia are routinely   infibulated (female circumcision).

What Rep. Omar thinks of Female Genital Mutilation and other issues  matters to plenty of  women, voters and people in general.   Though illegal in the USA since 1997, it’s a cultural practice common throughout much of the  Muslim world. Roughly 100 – 140 million woman world wide have experienced FGM.

When asked whether she condemns  the  practice Ms. Omar said the question was “absurd”.  Omar questioned the question rather than answer.  Ms. Omar engaged in non-speak.

Some facts  on  Female Genital Mutilation:

Islam is currently the largest single religious group in which the practice is widespread.   

In-depth research has been done on FTM in Somalia.  

“These studies confirmed that FGM/C is a deeply rooted and widely supported practice that is sustained through many cultural justifications that reinforce its continuation.

The three main reasons cited were that FGM/C is a Somali tradition, that it is an Islamic requirement, and that it enforces the cultural value of sexual purity in females by controlling female sexual desires, thereby ensuring virginity before marriage and fidelity throughout a woman’s life.

The studies showed that there is a fear of women “running wild” and becoming promiscuous if they are not circumcised and infibulated.   FGM/C is erroneously
seen as a way of complying with the Islamic requirement of chastity and morality, and is also believed to enhance women’s ritual cleanliness to enable them to pray.
The perceived Islamic requirement is a major justification for FGM/C in practicing Muslim communities such as the Somali.”

Aptos Psychologist:  What kind of men support FGM?  Those men, probably Muslim, who say to themselves  ‘it’s always been done, it’s religious tradition and …. it ensures one can marry a chaste woman.’  FGM is all about control of women.    Yes   –  Rep. Illan Omar should answer the question, ‘Do you condemn the practise of FGM?

how protect liberty in Hong Kong? Boot China from the United Nations says Denise Ho

Kick China out of the U.N for it’s human rights abuses says Denise Ho, popular Hong Kong singer

Individuals who  today stand tall  for freedom and individual liberty  include media owner Jimmy Lai  and popular Hong Kong Singer Denise Ho.

Hong Kong singer Denise Ho recently  appeared before the U.N.’s  Human Rights Council.   Ho   requested that the U.N. boot China out  of the U.N because of it’s human rights abuses.  Abuses include the thousands of Uyghur  Muslims detained in moved for “re-education” purposes in China.

During her remarks,  Denise Ho was interrupted by a Chinese diplomat.   Ho is the type of person China wants to extradite from Hong Kong  back to the mainland for trial because of  free speech  which China does not permit.

The following was printed in the Wall Street Journal 7/10/2019:

“We keep reading about the relentless march of authoritarian government, but the liberal pessimists didn’t reckon with the people of Hong Kong. Against all odds, their recent protests against a bill to allow extradition to Mainland China have forced the Hong Kong government to back down.

Chief Executive Carrie Lam declared on Tuesday that the extradition bill is “dead” and she has no plans to revive it. This is an extraordinary achievement….

“Before Hong Kongers took to the streets, the extradition law looked inevitable. It would have given China the power to pursue critics in Hong Kong by having them arrested and then brought to the Mainland for trial and imprisonment. The millions who protested understood that this law would have meant the end of Hong Kong’s legal protection against China’s politicized courts.

“You can bet Ms. Lam’s masters in Beijing will look for some other way to assert more control over Hong Kong.

And on that score, we were encouraged to see that Vice President Mike Pence and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo each met Monday in Washington with Jimmy Lai, a media owner who has been a consistent voice for a free and democratic Hong Kong despite risks to livelihood and limb. The meetings will be noticed and offer encouragement in Hong Kong, where U.S. companies have invested some $81 billion.

“Mr. Lai’s meetings at both State and the White House came on the same day that a popular Hong Kong singer, Denise Ho, appeared before the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva.

Denise Ho  was interrupted by a Chinese diplomat after she suggested China should be booted from the U.N. body for its human-rights abuses and called for the council to “convene an urgent session to protect the people of Hong Kong.”

Ms. Ho is the kind of Hong Kong critic that Beijing would love to charge with something and then extradite to the Mainland.

“Constant vigilance is one price of liberty, and Hong Kongers know they’ll have to watch what Beijing and Ms. Lam do next. But meantime the rest of us should cheer the courage and resilience of the Hong Kong people who refused to bow to Beijing’s orders even when their cause looked hopeless.”

Aptos Psychologist:  China aka Hong Kong’s government  got a ‘black eye’ when millions of people in Hong Kong stood tall for their individual legal freedoms.  Yes,  why not kick China out of the U.N. for it’s human rights abuses.  And do the same  for other countries who consistently abuses human rights.  There’s quite a list of countries who abuse their citizen’s basic human rights.  Maybe the U.N. should fold up and go away?

Is COPA / Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors a good bang for the buck? Alinsky’s progressive socialism seeks power over immigration, health care, open borders & housing

 

No Borders  espoused by various COPA / Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors  churches

Is COPA  aka Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors Inc. — which is   Saul Alinsky in action -   a good bang for the buck?

Alinksy’s progressive socialism seeks power via churches over immigration, health care, open borders and housing.

For church members & the public,  COPA / Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors Inc.  is not a good bang for the buck  based on   info from Charity Navigator.

Look at the numbers:

COPA  expenses: Seventy-nine percent  or roughly  4 out of 5 dollars pays for Personnel ($288 K) and General/ Administrative ($18.8 K).  Only 21% [$80,400 / $387,233] goes for Program Costs. Wow!

$288 K pays  for three full-time COPA organizers in the 2018-19 Budget.   Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors Inc. is another name for COPA in the Santa Cruz and Monterey CA area.

COPA/ Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors Inc.  is housed at a Lutheran church in Watsonville, CA and pays about $19 K for General and Administrative costs.

 How to evaluate the numbers: 

  • Program Expenses: The majority of charities listed by Charity Navigator   – seven out of ten non profits – spend at least 75% of their expenses directly on their Programs. That means the organization should spend no more than 25% of their total expenses on administrative overhead and fundraising costs.

  • COPA / Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors Inc. reverses the percentages recommended by Charity Navigator  with expenses for Program accounting for  only 21% and  Personnel/ Administrative expenses accounting for  79%. Wow.  That’s a reversal!

     Check for evidence of commitment to accountability and transparency:

    • Website: The best charities are transparent and accountable to the public. You should be able to see evidence of this in the information they provide on their web site. Can you readily find information about the charity’s staff and Board of Directors? Did the charity publish its financial information such as its most recently filed Form 990 or audit?
    •  Accountability:  The IRS 990 form is available from the Central Coast Sponsors Inc. website.    https://www.guidestar.org/profile/77-0557460
  • Industrial Area Foundation (IAF) akin to an octopus with legs
    • Transparency: Low.  One must search to find connections to COPA’s   founding organization — the Industrial Area Foundation (IAF)  of Chicago, Illinois  COPA is a long standing  affiliate of IAF.    And there’s no mention of  community activist  Saul Alinsky  who wrote  the guiding principles for progressive socialists i.e., Rules for Radicals. One might think  it interesting to churches  that Alinsky  dedicated  his book to  Lucifer.

  • Open Borders is one goal of COPA / IAF / Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors Inc.

Churches connected with COPA in Santa Cruz and Monterey CA  fund open  border   immigration policies. Exactly how much dues  each church affiliate  pays COPA is not readily available.

COPA recently   held a conference on immigration “reform” in Monterey, CA  (4/9/2018). No specifics as to number of attendees is provided on their website.

The Catholic church in CA is a long time supporter of open borders.  Five of the seven churches in Santa Cruz County & neighboring two counties  which act as as the governing board of COPA   are Catholic.

Other  supporters of COPA  include  several Episcopal  churches, i.e., St. John’s in Aptos, Calvary in Santa Cruz and St. Mary’s by the Sea in Pacific Grove.

Sunday, 9/16/18 at 9 am,   COPA / Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors Inc.  lead organizer Tim McManus speaks at St. John the Baptist Episcopal Church in Aptos, CA.  You might ask  Mr. McManus  why roughly 4 of 5 dollars  of Expenses  goes to pay staff Personnel & Administrative  and only  21% pays  for Program.

Pope Francis is on record that a nation has the right to control it’s borders.  A nation is an extension of a family.

Aptos Psychologist:    COPA goes to church leaders and gets their “buy in” and them uses that buy in to contact parishioners and teach Alinsky progressive socialist goals.

What is COPA?    On  November 2, 2009 Freedom Advocates wrote,  “COPA targets congregations and unsuspecting parishioners…”

What COPA currently says:   It’s Mission is   “to develop the leadership skills of ordinary people …. to engage effectively in public life  …with power to negotiate with public and private sector leaders … to change the economic, social, political and cultural pressures on their families … 

COPA has 22  member institutions in Santa Cruz, Monterey and San Benito Counties — including “many religious groups”  they say.

As mentioned above, COPA is an affiliate  of Industrial Area Foundation.  See all the affiliates. 

Per  COPA’s website  (4/2018) Pete Scudder of Scudder Roofing  said about obtaining workers,  “there is no system. There is no line. No way anyone come here  legally unless they have   a lot of money….Scudder Roofing  construction company hires 90% Hispanics.  Scudder  Roofing seeks  to sponsor ‘citizen applications for workers’.

Back to general  discussion of COPA /  Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors Inc. 

It’s vital to  look at how charities are rated for financial health and transparency.  Neither COPA  aka Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors Inc is rated by Charity Navigator. That’s because their financials are too small for Charity Navigator.

What if all the legs of the founding organization — IAF — were examined by Charity Navigator?  What if COPA was transparent about its  socialist progressive agenda?  Would parishioners and the public support COPA / Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors Inc?

It’s best to view COPA and Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors Inc. for what they are — community organizing entities which seek progressive socialist goals.

 

Per D Souza both Barrack Obama and Hilary Clinton — both students of Alinsky — implemented  Saul Alinsky’s political tactics.

Remember Obama’s promises that “you can keep your doctors…” and that “insurance premiums costs  were going down …”  Then Obama took over health care and 1/6th of private economy.  Check out D. Souza on YouTube.

Both Obama and the Clintons entered politics with little money and left as mult- millionaires.

 

What do you want for your children and grandchildren?   That your children learn progressive socialism in church via COPA / Central Coast Interfaith Sponsors Inc? 

Or that your children learn to think for themselves and seek freedom?

Power tends to corrupt, absolutely [criminalize plastic straws]

“We have to regulate every aspect of people’s lives” says Santa Barbara politician

No Straw Man Here: The Mask Slips in Santa Barbara

Posted: 05 Aug 2018 08:52 AM PDT

(Steven Hayward)A little noticed detail in Santa Barbara’s recent drive to criminalize plastic straws, which culminated in the Santa Barbara city council taking testimony from a nine-year-old about the planetary menace, has come to light in recent days. During that council session, councilman Jesse Dominguez said the following in response to citizens who asked “what’s next?”:

“Unfortunately, common sense is just not common. We have to regulate every aspect of people’s lives.”

Freedom … to kill? No. Freedom from guns? Not possible. Freedom from violence due to mental illness? Possible.

 

Take away guns? Medicate persons with violent tendencies?

Murdering  kids at school, youth at universities, parishioners at church and  people at music events.  That’s become a reality of USA life in 2018.  What can we do? Yes there are things we can do.

Yes –  there are drugs that can medicate and control violent urges to kill self and other.

No — it’s not realistic to take away 300 million guns from the U.S. population. Take away the guns is the “answer” according to some.  That is not realistic. Perhaps making it illegal for gun sellers to sell guns that spit out thousands of bullets — that’s possible.

Yes — a number of states have enacted laws so it’s easy to lock up persons who may harm others or themselves (including California).

Yes — shoot back!  That works.   There are stun guns and taser guns and  a variety of ways to arm persons who can “guard” at public places, e.g.,  schools, churches, malls and other places where people congregate.

Yes — use modern surveillance cameras, drones and modern technology  to watch those with known histories of violent histories.   And permit law enforcement to keep track and monitor persons who  post  violent threats via  Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

So yes — let’s get real.  There are too many young men (so far just men) who choose to kill others.

We must control persons’s with known, long term histories of  violent  urges via appropriate medication and appropriate incarceration.

Don’t ask for a federal government solution.  States must experiment and do what’s right for their citizens.

Freedom: free to make your own “dumb” decisions. Wow! [medical insurance, internet usage & FBI Peter Strzok]

Freedom to make your own “dumb” decisions

Freedom … to make your own  “dumb” decisions …  such as ‘do I want health insurance?‘  Under the proposed tax plan, there’s no more requirement that you  must purchase medical insurance. .Young people  will no longer be  saddled with paying for the health requirements of older, more sick individuals.

And freedom …. again  to decide exactly  what you want and don’t want from the Internet.

This week, the FCC voted to eliminate the  two year old ‘net neutrality’ rules imposed by Obama.

So,  for example ATT offers no cost for streaming to customers who use their cellular services and purchase TV Direct.  That was not considered  ‘neutral’ and therefore  illegal  under Obama’s  rules as other service providers did not offer the same ‘deal’.   Now you get to decide what ‘deal’ you can afford and want concerning Internet usage.

Another freedom: FBI agent Peter Strzok’s freedom to send thousands of  texts  his lover attorney Page concerning his intense dislike of Trump.  Attorney Strzok sat in on the interviews with Hilary Clinton — interviews which were not taped. It was Strzok who changed the language describing Clinton’s behavior downgrading it   from “grossly negligent” to “extremely  careless”
