The Baltimore bridge that collapsed on March 26th was named for Francis Scott Key, who wrote the lyrics to the American national anthem “The Star-Spangled Banner” in 1814. His inspiration was the British bombardment of Fort McHenry in the critical port of Baltimore during the War of 1812. The British had just burned the U.S. Capitol and the White House and had set their sights on the Baltimore port, with the guns from hundreds of British ships trained on shelling the American flag. If the flag were taken down, they would know the Americans had surrendered, and the British agreed the shelling would stop. But in the dawn’s early light, the flag still waved, held up by patriots who replaced soldiers who had fallen before them. Francis Scott Key observed all this from a British ship on which he had been allowed on board to negotiate a prisoner release. It is a quite moving story, dramatized here.
What the dawn’s early light brought on March 26, 2024, by contrast, were shocking news videos of the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsing when the Singapore-owned cargo ship Dali slammed into it. It was “like something out of an action movie,” said Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott. Several commentators are calling it a “black swan” event that will have catastrophic effects on global supply chains. Interestingly, the War of 1812 was also about disruptions to U.S. trade with foreign nations, in that case by blockade by the British navy. But more on that, and on how our forebears turned dependence on foreign manufacturers into economic independence, after a look at what went amiss with the Dali and the bridge.

The path to civilizational destruction should be very familiar by now. The Biden administration is 'assaulting the very mechanisms and protocols we use to live'. Why are those controlling President Biden using him to advance so much of a destructive agenda that it will likely end America as we know it? If someone wished to destroy America, could he do anything more catastrophic than what we currently see and hear each day? What would an existential enemy do that we have not already done to ourselves? Historian Victor Davis Hanson tells 'The Bottom Line' the trend is only reversible with a change in leadership.
Here are 11 now familiar steps to civilizational destruction:
1. Wipe out a 2,000-mile border.
Allow 10 million foreign nationals to enter unlawfully. Have no audit of any; nullify all federal immigration laws. Let in toxic drugs that kill 100,000 Americans a year. Give free support to those millions who broke the law. Smear any objectors as racists and xenophobes.
2. Run up $35 trillion in national debt.
Keep adding $1 trillion to it each 100 days. Defame anyone wishing to cut wild spending as cruel and inhumane.
3. Appease or subsidize enemies like Iran and China.
Demonize allies like Israel. Allow terrorists to attack Americans without adequate response. See Islam as either similar or superior to Christianity. Make amends to leftist governments for supposedly past toxic American international behavior. Follow the lead of international agencies like the U.N., ICC and WHO to atone for past American neocolonial and imperialist behavior. Recede to second-tier international status, befitting American decline.
Once upon a time, there was a little chick called Chicken Licken. One day as she was scratching about in the farmyard, she heard a message coming from the television in the farmhouse saying that everyone must stay home or else we would all die.
‘Oh no,’ cried Chicken Licken. ‘I must go into my coop and stay there.’
So off she went to stay in her coop for three weeks, which was how long the nice man on the telly reckoned it would take. On the way, she met Henny Penny.
‘Oh Henny Penny,’ cried Chicken Licken, ‘There’s a deadly virus about and if we don’t stay cooped up we’re all going to die.’
‘But why would those who are perfectly healthy need to do that?’ asked Henny Penny confused. ‘If we’re healthy, that means we haven’t got it. And if we haven’t got it, we can’t spread it.’
‘Henny Penny!’ replied Chicken Licken aghast. ‘The man on the telly said that healthy people can spread it to one another even if they haven’t got it. Stay Safe.’
‘Sounds like nonsense to me,’ said Henny Penny, ‘but I suppose they must know what they’re talking about.’

Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche, a world-renowned Belgian virologist, has warned that a massive wave of illness and death among the highly vaccinated population with compromised immune systems is imminent. During an appearance on the KunstlerCast podcast on Friday, Bossche issued a grave warning, stating that “what I am predicting is a massive, massive tsunami” of illness and death among highly-vaccinated populations with compromised immune systems.
Bossche warned that hospitals will collapse, and financial, economic, and social chaos will ensue. He explained that the wave of illness and death will start with more cases of serious long Covid and then replace the surge of cancers, leading to a hyper-acute phase with a huge wave of illness and death.
“What I am predicting is a massive, massive tsunami” of illness and death among highly-vaccinated populations with compromised immune systems, Bossche said.
“You will see what will happen, for example, in the next coming weeks…is more and more cases of more serious long Covid…
“They will start to replace the surge of the cancers…now we have a more chronic phase.
“It will end with a hyper-acute phase, a huge, huge wave…

A cattle rancher is raising the alarm after the federal government started bulldozing undamaged Texas farms following the recent wildfires.
In a video message, the rancher, whose identity is not being published, warned that the feds are destroying remaining farms under the guise of clearing damaged lands after the fires. He warns that “over a million acres of farmland” was “burned and ruined” during the Panhandle wildfires. However, the rancher is alerting the public that the government is now “ruining the remaining feed and grasses” that were not harmed by the fires.
“So I wanted to update y’all on what’s going on in Texas, We have over a million acres of farmland that has been burned and ruined. And not only that, we have [the] Texas Forest Service that is going into these ranchers’ properties and dozing up the land. They’re not even dozing the burned areas. They’re ruining the remaining feed and grasses that they do have, and we don’t know why they’re doing this. So let me know what y’all think about this in the comments. Make sure to share this around.” We need to stand up for what’s right. And remember, guys, buy American and buy local.”
This news comes after a separate recent warning from the same rancher about another attack on America’s food supply.
Alison Weir | In full view of the world, the US is facilitating “some of the worst crimes of our age,” an actions that could ultimately cause America’s downfall… Why is this happening and what can be done about it? | British journalist and author Owen Jones recently made a video describing in excruciating detail Israel’s ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza and the West Bank. Many others have also reported on this. Medical Aid CEO Melanie Ward says that “children are being starved at the fastest rate the world has ever seen.” Jones concludes that Israel’s ruthless actions – publicly supported by Western governments at a time when the world is seeing them in real time – could prove the downfall of the West. He points out that “Western governments have openly facilitated some of the worst crimes of our age” and concludes: “I don’t think the West is ever going to recover from this.” It’s important to examine why the West is taking such irrational, immoral, and self-destructive actions.

■ US House speaker to put Ukraine aid bill to a vote — Helping "israel" is helping a terrorist, Zio-Nazi regime. Clear as day. But is there anything in the Bible about helping the Nazi terrorists in Ukraine? No, but he's going to do it anyway because Dictator/Puppet Zelensky says, Treat Ukraine like Israel. (Ukraine is the new/old Jewish Khazaria.)
No name of knife attacker killed by police has been officially released, despite senior officers saying the killer was known to the New South Wales force | Pro-Israel apologists who tried to exploit today’s mass-casualty knife attack in Sydney, Australia, by claiming it was committed by ‘Islamists’ or ‘Jihadists’ and linking it to protests against Israel’s genocide in Gaza look to have been humiliated after early, though still unconfirmed, reports indicated the killer was a pro-Israel fanatic named Benjamin Cohen.
"If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.” – Abraham Lincoln" (Even the ACLU uses this quite and attributes it to Lincoln) It started decades ago and we went from a nation that fought against communism and socialism, just to see one major political party embrace both decades later. We see openly self-admitted communists teaching in our public schools and colleges. All one has to do is look at the "45 communist goals" to take over America, which was read into the congressional record in 1963, to see how many of those goals have already been achieved, and how close to complete self-destruction America as a nation truly is.
Iran’s mission to the UN posted on X late Saturday that its retaliatory strike on Israel over the bombing of its consulate in Syria has been completed, before issuing a warning to the U.S. to butt out. “Conducted on the strength of Article 51 of the UN Charter pertaining to legitimate defense, Iran’s military action was in response to the Zionist regime’s aggression against our diplomatic premises in Damascus. The matter can be deemed concluded. However, should the Israeli regime make another mistake, Iran’s response will be considerably more severe. It is a conflict between Iran and the rogue Israeli regime, from which the U.S. MUST STAY AWAY!” the post read.

The Russian Defense Ministry earlier said that Ukrainian commanders are not held accountable for losses among foreign mercenaries on the front line, and that almost 6,000 of them had already been eliminated since the start of the special military operation. | US cemeteries are full of graves of American mercenaries who died in Ukraine - hirelings described by Western press as the so-called “volunteer soldiers.” ● One of them is retired Marine veteran Grady Kurpasi, who died two months after the start of the Russian special military operation. According to a Sputnik correspondent, the 50-year-old is buried in Arlington National Cemetery near Washington, the most famous in the United States, where politicians, astronauts and even presidents, including John F. Kennedy, are buried. ● A cemetery in California has become the final resting place for another US mercenary, Bryan Young, 51, who was killed by "Russian artillery fire" in the Donetsk region in July 2023, according to American media. In a bizarre sight, the epitaph on Young's gravestone reads "On to the next adventure". ● Another American mercenary who was buried in California is “Marine Corps veteran” Ian Tortorici. The 32-year-old fought for the Foreign Legion of Ukraine and was eliminated in an attack by Russian forces on a Ukrainian unit stationed in the city of Kramatorsk.
Robert Bridge | ‘Progressive’ educators seem hell-bent on turning a passing state of confusion into irreversible decisions many come to regret | Thousands of children will likely regret going under the knife to change their sex as the majority of gender-confused kids have been found to shed the confusion by the time they are fully grown adults. ● Search anywhere on social media these days and you’ll find endless chatter on the subject of young people ruminating over a sex change. Coming at a critical time in a child’s development, the messaging can sow tremendous confusion. And what has been missing from the conversation is how many of these young people eventually grow out of their feelings over time. ● One such adolescent, ‘Rebecca,’ was 11 years old when she began to identify as transgender. At the age of 13, at the emotionally sensitive time when puberty sets in, she broke the unsettling news to her friends and family. That same year, the doctors prescribed her puberty blockers and testosterone. At the tender age of 16, she went under the knife for a double mastectomy. Less than a year later, however, she understood that she’d made a terrible mistake.

Gaza already resembles the aftermath of a nuclear attack after more than five months of constant and intense bombing by Israel. 💬 Walberg said, “It’s (President) Joe Biden’s reason. I don’t think we should. I don’t think any of our aid that goes to Israel to support our greatest ally, arguably maybe in the world, to defeat Hamas, and Iran and Russia and probably North Korea’s in there and China too, with them helping Hamas. We shouldn’t be spending a dime on humanitarian aid. It should be like Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Get it over quick.” After the video of Walberg’s calling for the Palestinian people in Gaza to be nuked went viral on social media, Walberg spokesman Mike Rorke confirmed the validity of the video.
Special counsel Jack Smith on Monday asked the Supreme Court to reject former President Donald Trump’s immunity claim in the federal 2020 election interference case. | Smith, in a 66-page filing to the high court, argued that Trump’s “novel and sweeping” immunity claim runs counter to the “bedrock principle of our constitutional order,” which is “that no person is above the law— including the President.” “The President’s constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed does not entail a general right to violate them,” the special counsel wrote to the justices, laying out a series of arguments that he claims refute Trump’s assertion that he is immune from criminal prosecution.
Thousands of Penn affiliates, interim president marvel at solar eclipse — despite clouds over campus | Clouds may have congested the view of Monday’s solar eclipse from campus — but they did not dampen the spirits of the Penn community, which gathered by the thousands on College Green and beyond to celebrate the spectacle over shared viewing glasses, Moon Pies, and astronaut ice cream. While Philadelphia was expected to experience 90% sun coverage, a surprise burst of clouds over University City covered the sun during the eclipse's peak, which occurred at around 3:23 p.m. However, it was too late to turn away the crowds — the largest of which had gathered at a watch party held in front of Van Pelt-Dietrich Library organized by the University.

Around 120 protestors called on Penn to cut ties with a spinout that they allege has produced robotic dogs used by the Israeli military. | The crowd of Philadelphia community members gathered on Thursday at the Ben Franklin statue to protest Ghost Robotics, a company housed in Pennovation Works that develops and sells four-legged robots to be used for "data collection, intelligence, security, asset protection, and military-specific uses."
Welcome to America under the woke democrats and Biden. In six months Trump will either be in prison or dead and Biden will finish destroying America. If you think things are bad now you aint seen nuthin yet! Get a passport while you can.
Former Athens-Clarke Negro police officer Roger Williams filed a federal lawsuit against the Athens-County Ohio government on the grounds that he was discriminated against when he was fired in 2021 for using excessive force. Williams is suing for back pay, lost benefits, punitive damages and other fees and costs associated with the litigation.
So it wasn't the innocent young woman's rights that were blatantly violated, but the power mad thug cop's rights. Ultimately Williams will be rewarded with a big pile of money. One has to wonder why wasn't this sadistic cop charged with police brutality or attempted murder? The answer is simple. In Biden's America the enforcers of repression are a protected class. Obviously America is no longer free and there are better places in the world to live.
Trump is no longer ahead in the polls, Biden is winning.
The American people want to pay three times more for food, gasoline, and rent.
They want their children to be indoctrinated by Marxists and transvestites in the schools and universities.
They want higher taxes and hundreds of billions of dollars spent on endless war.
They want the jails and mental institutions of Africa and South America emptied into their country.
They are glad Biden invited tens of millions of illegals, criminals, and gang members to walk over the southern boarder into America.
They want the the right to bear arms removed, criminals released and shoplifting legalized.
They want the Mexican mafia dealing in drugs and prostitution in all fifty states.
They want the removal of laws preventing pedophilia and sex trafficking.
They want their children mutilated in sex change surgeries carried out without their permission or knowledge.
They want men participating in women's sports and the destruction of women's sports.
They hate freedom of speech and want dissenting opinions criminalized as hate speech and racism.
They want the Constitution, Bill of Rights, and America flag removed.
They now consider anyone who flies the American flag to be a racist, terrorist, or a Nazi.
The American people are now "woke".
"Goodbye America... Farewell forever!"
