President Biden has begun cutting off health care funds for women to those States like Tennessee that protect babies from abortion. It is apparent that he has no concern for women’s health, they are just pawns in his grab for power. He is willing to jeopardize the health and lives of women just to blackmail States into legalizing abortion. The Supreme Court overturned Roe vs Wade and ruled that babies are people and the courts have jurisdiction to protect them. The Constitution states that everyone is granted certain rights including the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness and all federal employees and agencies are bound by the Constitution to protect those rights. As such, President Biden is in open violation of the Constitution which is an impeachable offence. The Constitution states that all authority not granted to the federal government is the authority of the separate States. Individual States have since taken a stand for or against abortion and are answerable to their constituents, but President Biden has no right or authority to overrule the State laws since health regulations are not specifically granted to the federal government and are therefore the authority of the States. In 2024, we will elect a new President and a number of representatives to Congress. We need to elect a President and representatives to Congress who will respect the rule of law and the authority granted to the States.

Parents should not be forced to send their children to schools that turn their children against them and the values they seek to teach them. Parents should be allowed to determine what their children are taught and where they attend school. There are a number of ways that we can return control of our children’s education back to parents. The best method is to tie the funding to the child. The child is given a voucher to take to any school they choose. That way, children can get the kind of education which their parents feel is best for them. While liberal educators say that will fund church related schools, which the government isn’t allowed to do, the government would not be supporting one religion over another, which is what is prohibited. Any religion, whether Christian, Jewish, Moslem, or Buddhist would be free to set up their own schools and receive funds like any other. Every child would get an equal amount and the funds would go to the child for the parents to use for the school they choose. It would be the parent’s choice where they go, government would not be forcing them to attend a religious school. The government’s current withholding funds from religious schools and banning the Bible and Christian prayer are in fact discrimination based on religion. In addition, our schools are pushing secular humanism which is as much a religion as Judaism or Christianity. While it is not an institutional religion, it is still a body of religious belief which says that there is no god and man is the ruler of his fate. It is very similar to Buddhism and other philosophical religions which are recognized religions. They also believe that there is no god and man is the ruler of his fate, but they have developed rituals and common practices which secular humanism has not. The public schools are pushing secular humanism over other religions. In addition, many schools are pushing teaching on Islam which is also promoting one religion over others, in violation of the Constitution.

Parents have a right to protect their children against such destructive philosophies and should be able to choose what their children are taught. It was instilled in our educational system from the very beginning. School funding was set up so each school district funded its own schools. Each district had a school board elected by the voters of that school district. Since most families had children, that ensured that parents directed what their children were taught through the school board members they elected. Liberal educators have tried to hijack the school systems by increasingly injecting State and federal funds to supplement local taxes under the disguise of making schools more equitable. City schools originally had more funding then rural areas due to the factories and businesses. However, as factories, businesses, and higher income families have moved to the suburbs, it has impoverished the city schools. While it is important to help poorer school districts, liberal politicians have poured money into rich school districts as well as poor ones and have used federal and State dollars to manipulate and control school districts. They use the threat of withholding funds to force schools to adopt liberal policies and practices, against parent’s wishes. Today, parents have very little say in what their kids are taught. In addition, educators have sought to shield their liberal teachings from parents so most parents have no idea what is being taught. Covid forced children to study at home allowing parents a glimpse of what is being taught. In addition, public schools have benefited from a virtual monopoly on education. Public education is free to residents of the district, paid for through taxes. Those who choose alternative schools must not only pay taxes to support the public schools, they must also pay for their children’s education. Only the rich could afford to send their kids to the school of their choice. As a result, the vast majority of children are forced to attend public schools. Without competition, the public schools have had no pressure to maintain quality education and public school standards have seriously declined over the years while private schools continue to maintain high standards. We are rapidly returning to a society dominated by the rich which our forefathers fought so hard to prevent. If parents are to have any say in what their children are taught and ensure they get a quality education, they must have a say in where their children attend.

The push for public schools resulted from the drive for universal education. Education had originally been only for the rich. Universal education was necessary for a democracy because only an informed electorate can vote intelligently. Voters must understand the issues and the consequences of the opposing views to decide on the best course of action. They can then vote for the candidate that they feel will help them achieve the best outcome. Universal education will also boost the economic level of the society. Before universal education, society was basically a farm economy overseen by a few wealthy rulers. It also opens the door to those who are poor to improve themselves and rise above the level they grew up in, offering a better life for them and their children. As people are educated, they can secure jobs in existing industries and businesses and develop new businesses. Society also benefits. The more people engaged in profitable work, the more society will prosper. Democrats say they support funds for public schools, which everyone should be willing to support, but the devil is in the details. Liberal scholars have hijacked the schools and are using them for social engineering. They are seeking to break down the family which is where children learn moral values and gender roles, so they can mold society to accept their philosophies. Children are taught sexual license from an early age causing widespread sex outside marriage. In addition, they have begun pushing gender confusion to disrupt normal sexual relationships. They have also sought to turn children against their parent’s values and demonize Christianity to allow them to breakdown the family and instill their own values.

The FBI has just declared a list of conservative organizations to be terrorist groups because they are investigating crimes committed by the administration, the FBI, the IRS, and the Justice Dept. American citizens should not have to continue to sue the government to get information. These are matters the FBI should be investigating. The FBI was quick to investigate Donald Trump and released the information to the media for a smear job, to keep him from being elected in spite of the fact they knew the information was false, yet they have not investigated the evidence of criminal activity contained on Hunter Biden’s laptop, which they originally claimed was fake but later admitted was true, in order to prevent it from hurting Joe Bidens chances of winning the election. Government agencies paid with public funds should not be influencing the elections to enable one candidate to win, over another. While President Biden claims to be openly transparent, he has stonewalled every attempt to investigate it. Recently, he fired those who were investigating it to prevent the truth from coming out. In addition, they continue to prosecute those who pray in front of abortion clinics while they have not investigated the daily vandalizing and fire bombing of pro-life pregnancy centers and churches that support them. They indicate a disturbing overreach of government power and are tactics one would expect in Russia or China but not in the United States.

Canada is not expanding its program of assisted suicide while doing nothing to repair its failing healthcare system. Canada reported that 10,000 people died there by assisted suicide in 2021. It is only another stop on the slippery slope. Once you declare that life in the womb is expendable, it begins a slide that can only lead downward. When Canada created a universal health care system, a government agency took over supervision of the health care system. If the patient was critically ill or critically injured and the treatment was too expensive and the outcome was uncertain, the panel would simply deny treatment. Effectively condemning the person to suffer until they died. However, since many did not die right away, it became expensive caring for them until they died and so Canada opened the door to Euthanasia to relieve pressure on its health care system. While at first, it was at the patient’s request, the government panel was eventually allowed to order it to save the cost of treatment which would only maintain them but could not cure them. Eventually, they expanded the definition to include mental illness or stress. That would include those who lost hope of getting treated by the failing health care system or of getting housing or other necessities who would request termination. Many nations in Europe are following the same path. That is the path that the United States will follow if we do not reassert the value of life. After over 45 years of legalized abortion, many people have lost the sense of the value of life. While a majority still oppose abortion, liberal politicians have been forcing it on us through the courts and through legislation. Now they are pushing to allow killing unwanted children up to 28 days after birth. California has now legalized that and other States are considering it, however many abortionists have been secretly practicing it already while liberal prosecutors turn a blind eye to it. Liberal politicians have also been pushing for a universal health care system similar to Canada which would place the decision to offer or withhold treatment into the hands of a government committee.

Democrats in Oregon are pushing a law that would allow girls of any age to get abortions without notifying their parents, but Republicans are boycotting the legislative session to prevent it being voted on.. The girl would have to approve in writing before her parents would be notified. It means girls only 10 years old could get an abortion and their parents would not know it. That is a resipe for disaster. That means a rapist or sex trafficker could get a girl pregnant and then take her for an abortion to cover it up. There are already numerous instances where rapists and sex traffickers are taking girls to get abortions and the girls are going through repeated abortions because Planned Parenthood has not notified the parents or child protective services. Sex with underage girls is illegal in all 50 States and laws require child protective services be notified when girls request an abortion. However, Planned Parenthood and other abortionists openly ignore the law because of Roe vs Wade, however parental notification has nothing to do with whether the baby is protected by the law. Abortionists would still be guilty of failing to notify child protective services, even if they repeal the laws about notifying parents. The law protects children from sexual exploitation and the child is a person protected by the Constitution and State laws. Roe vs Wade did not change that, nor does the fact that Roe vs Wade has been overturned. They tell the girl to list her age as eighteen or over so they can avoid the requirements of the law, even though it is easy to tell that most ten year olds are not eighteen years old. That is a deliberate act to get around the law.

Democrats are back to their old game of pushing spending to the limit and then asking to raise the debt limit to allow them to spend more. You cannot continue spending without limits. The debt limits were passed to force the government to live within its budget. It does no good to keep raising the debt limit so you can continue spending. Democrats are willing to threaten the stability of the country to get what they want. They refuse to accept budget cuts without an increase in the debt limits. It will do no good to make budget cuts to get a raise in the debt ceiling and then return to spending once it is passed which is what they have done over the last fourteen years. President Trump made significant budget cuts without raising the ceiling, but President Biden canceled those cuts and returned to reckless spending. Unless they agree to make budget cuts and retain the current debt ceiling, nothing will change. We cannot continue spending with no end in sight. It has to stop and stop now, or we will continue to face threats of a government shutdown if we don’t keep raising the debt limit.
