SOMEBODY PLEASE WAKE ME FROM THIS MIGHTMARE
When Biden became president America was on a solid footing, inflation was under control, we were energy independent, the price of gasoline was under $2.00, and things in America were great. Now most of that has been undone, and nothing is being done about it. This is like a nightmare in which you are terrified only to awake and be thankful it was only a dream. But the present nightmare is no dream, and things are only getting worse in America. Will someone please wake me from this nightmare?
While Trump was president nearly 500 miles of wall were built and immigration was controlled. Biden has opened the border and invited all to come, and they are coming by the millions.
When Biden became president America was energy independent and we were even selling energy abroad. Biden stopped construction of oil pipelines, stopped drilling on public lands, and began a campaign against fossil fuels, the very product that has made America great. Will someone please wake me from this nightmare?
Trump appointed constitutional judges around the country, and three great judges to the Supreme Court. They have protected life by reversing Roe V. Wade. Biden, a Catholic, is the most pro-abortion president in recent history. Protestors at abortion clinics have been assaulted and prolife clinics and churches have been attacked.
When Trump left office, everyone knew what was a woman and there was no question but that God had created only men and women. Biden has continued to promote the idea that people who say they are transgender need our support, even to puberty blockers and radical surgeries that injure children for life. Now men undress in women’s locker rooms, and compete in women’s sports, destroying the incentives of women who have trained all their lives for success.
While Trump was in office you were pretty much permitted to say whatever you knew to be true and free speech was not hindered. Now, under Biden, you can be fired for simply pointing out something destructive, but which you know to be true. This includes issues about climate change, the value of masks and vaccinations, and other so-called health measures. Will someone please wake me from this nightmare?
Biden has made it clear that he supports going to zero carbon emissions which would eliminate all use of coal, and fossil fuels. Natural gas is used to make fertilizer, which is very important to agriculture. And, over 6000 things that we use on a daily basis are made from oil. Wind and solar will never take the place of coal-fired, or natural gas-fired energy generation. Electric cars will soon be a national disaster because they are useless during a time of disaster with no electricity available. It is not possible to build batteries large enough to carry a city during times when the sun does not shine or the wind blow.
Several have testified that the Bidens received 5 million, 10 million from foreign governments, which is illegal, but nothing has been done about it. Hunter cheats on his taxes and lies on his application for a gun permit, yet he only gets a very light sentence. There seems to be a two-tier justice system. Will someone please wake me from this nightmare?
There is considerable evidence that the past two elections were rigged against Republicans, yet no measures are taken to insure this does not happen again. If this is not corrected it could spell the end of our constitutional republic.
Under Trump there was little inflation, prices were fairly stable. Biden has spent billions by just printing the money. This is classic inflation and is hurting everyone with higher prices for everything from food to hardware. This is especially true for gasoline, the price of which is also affected by the Biden energy policies.
Under Trump religious expression was protected. Now under the Biden Administration we see FBI agents infiltrating Catholic churches and reporting on “un-American” activities. Freedom of religion is attacked on several fronts. Our clear First Amendment Rights are not protected. Will someone please wake me from this nightmare?
In one town people rode bikes through town totally naked. With prayer and Bible reading no longer permitted in our schools, our schools no longer have a moral compass. What has historically been considered a disgrace is now just another person’s freedom of expression. This is madness.
Not long ago most Americans were very patriotic. Now statues of Americans are being torn down for very light reasons. The American flag is defaced and no longer respected. A pride flag is displayed above the American flag at the white house. Children no longer pledge to the flag in our schools. None of this can be considered constructive action.
Patriotic Americans have protested over various policies, spoken up at school board meetings and taken stands for righteousness, and these have been called domestic terrorists by our government. Others, such as those in Black Lives Matter, have destroyed businesses and burned down whole sections of town, and these are called peaceful protestors. Some have even been arrested and their bail paid by some Democrats. This is insane.
Most of our schools were shut down during the recent pandemic, and children lost time that will never be made up. Academic achievement has stalled and the only answer educators seem to know is to just spend more money on education. They do not seem to consider that quality education is taking place at a much-reduced price. Our schools have lost any clear moral direction. Even worse, our children are taught to hate our national heroes.
Trump had plans to leave Afghanistan in an orderly fashion. Biden abandoned our military airport, left Afghanistan without telling our allies, was responsible for the death of 13 of our soldiers, and left behind billions in state-of-the-art military equipment. Even some Americans were left behind. This was a serious crime.
President Trump strongly supported the Second Amendment, but Biden has worked hard to undermine our Second Amendment Rights.
I worked with many Democrats for several years and considered them to be both logical and sane. Yet, what is happening in America right now in mostly Democrat led states and cities is neither logical nor sane. It has to be obvious to any thinking person that if America continues down our present path, we will be easy game for a foreign power, and our great republic will be destroyed. This has to stop, and it begins with some patriotic American Democrats re-taking control of their party and stop this madness.
This is not just a nightmare that will go away when we awake. This is a terrible national condition that must be remedied before it is too late. Things are moving so rapidly toward destruction that we may not survive until the next election. We have to wake up from this madness.

- Tucker Carlson: There Were Government Officials in Crowd on Jan 6 There is some evidence that some of these officials actually helped demonstrators to enter the building.
- Shot Trooper Saved by Vest Trooper made a traffic stop. The driver shot the trooper in the chest, but he was saved by a safety vest.
- Former Trump Supporter Supports DeSantis It is unlikely that DeSantis Can beat Trump. However, if he should endorse Trump, it would place him in an excellent position for 2028. He would also make a great vice president.
- Democrats Support Abortion up to birth At birth a baby is a person with all the protections of the Constitution. One minute before, it is just something to be aborted. To understand more of the truth, get a copy of my book Abortion Compassion.
- House Documents Biden Corruption, but will anything come of it? For several years Americans have known about corruption in the Biden family, but nothing has been done about it. It is like a fox guarding the hen house. The Department of Justice is not going to move against the Bidens; that is pretty clear.

- Stop Smart Cities Now
Hi All,
Welcome to all those new to Stop Smart Cities Idaho (SSCI)! Lots to cover since the last Kootenai Metropolitan & Planning Organization (KMPO) meeting on June 8th.
SUMMARY OF PAST EVENTS
On June 28th SSCI had a great turnout for a Town Hall presentation on the Traffic Management Center (TMC) proposed for North Idaho. Over 300 residents attended, 11 elected city and state representatives as well as the Chair of the Kootenai County Republican Central Committee (KCRCC). Four of 11 KMPO commissioners participated in the Town Hall to include Jeff Tyler, Sandy White, Dan Gookin and Bruce Mattare. In addition, we had over 600 viewers watching on Erin Barnard’s Facebook live-stream, Kootenai County Spectator.
Many of our elected officials spoke in opposition to the proposed TMC and Brent Regan, the Chair of KCRCC, publicly stated that the KCRCC had unanimously voted in opposition of the TMC. A video of the Town Hall is attached below.
UPCOMING EVENTS
1. On July 13th SSCI will be hosting a presentation on the TMC at LYFE Coffee and Public House, 116 E. Lakeside Ave., CdA at 6:30 pm. Come with your questions and get ready to learn a little more about the bigger picture. For those unable to attend Erin Barnard will be live-streaming from her Kootenai County Spectator Facebook account. See flyer below and please share!
NOTE: The KMPO monthly meeting scheduled for July 13, 2023, at the Post Falls City Hall Chambers at 1:30 pm has been CANCELLED because according to KMPO Chair, Vice Chair and the Director there was no business to conduct.
2. KMPO announced that they will be hosting two outreach sessions at the CdA Library and an undetermined location in Post Falls on August 3rd. No further information at this time.
3. SAVE THE DATE! KMPO will be voting on cancelling the proposed TMC on AUGUST 10th at 1:30 pm at the Post Falls City Hall Chambers, Post Falls. We need a huge turnout to let the 11 commissioners know that North Idaho is opposed to this smart city infrastructure. A flyer for this event will be coming shortly.
Donations
SSCI is a grassroots organization that depends on donations from the community. The donations are used to pay for our billboard on Seltice and Heater, banners, signage, flyers and more with the purpose of educating the residents of North Idaho on smart cities/15 minute cities. Please go to our website at http://www.stopsmartcities.org to make a donation so we can spread the word and grow this movement.

For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:
Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me. (Job 19:25-27)

Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. (Matthew 5:11-12)
- There has been a lot of discussion this past week about the 2024 election. Some feel that it may be our last opportunity to see a Republican elected anywhere. Some believe that even if we elect a Republican President, it will still be the last. I would advise anyone who feels that way to make a careful study of the book of Judges. In that case Israel fell into sin, they experienced serious severe circumstances, they prayed for help, and God sent a deliverer, in the person of a judge. As long as he was alive things went along fairly well, but after he died the nation fell into sin again, with terrible conditions. As before they prayed for help and God raised up a judge to deliver them. This is repeated several times.
The problem we face today is not so much what God can do, it is more what He will do. And since we have kicked God out of our public life we cannot expect much help from Him. Our task is first of all to lead many to Christ and the Bible, and then beyond that to convince many that America is under serious difficulties. The present administration is working against America in too many ways to mention. If you cannot find good answers on the internet, drop me a note and I will help. If our constitutional republic is destroyed it will only be because we did not do what was expected of us.

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. (1 John 1:7)
- Many Protest Biden Plan to Limit Gas-fired Automobiles on Highways Electric Vehicles make very little sense. Even now there is not enough electricity to support them. They are useless in a disaster with no electric grid. They are deadly when caught in a snow blizzard. Unless forced to do so few Americans will ever choose to purchase an electric vehicle.
This is likely due to continued issues such as a lack of charging stations, demand on the electrical grid that is dangerously close to overload, exploding batteries, poorer than expected mileage on a battery before charging, and damage being done to the roadways by the much heavier EVs.
- DeSantis, if elected, would eliminate several agencies, refocus others I still say he would make a great Vice President.
- Eastern Washington a New State? Since this has to be approved by the state legislature and Congress, it does not seem likely with the Left in control, but anything is possible.
I am working on an article dealing with our present situation. Each of us needs to make up his mind not to help the liberals gain more control over our lives. We must ensure that our elections are secure and that nothing prevents folk from voting. We also need to continue to teach our neighbors the importance of the American system and to do what we can to make America great again. We can start over if we are still a country in 2025.

The injunction, which will limit the administration from communicating with social media companies about their content, was the result of a lawsuit launched by the Republican attorneys general of Missouri and Louisiana, who accused the administration of waging a “federal censorship enterprise.” The sweeping preliminary injunction—effective immediately—specifically named Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, Surgeon General Vivek Murthy, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, and the FBI and Justice Department, with the ruling saying they cannot contact social media companies with “the purpose of urging, encouraging, pressuring, or inducing in any manner the removal, deletion, suppression, or reduction of content containing protected free speech.”

For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then shall there enlargement and deliverance arise to the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father’s house shall be destroyed: and who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this? (Esther 4:14)
- Those who attend climate conferences are the worst hypocrites If these really believed their actions could cause the world to end they would eliminate the annual conferences that produce nothing to help the climate, which is a non-problem to begin with. They could start by reading my little book on climate, Climate Change: A Convenient Truth.
