From the Corner of Veteran’s Drive and Patriot’s Way By Bob “Bulldog” Ousley

Friday September 17, 2021 is Prisoner of War/Missing in Action Recognition Day. As I write this, I am assuming the Biden Administration will issue the traditional proclamation and hold an appropriate ceremony to commemorate the day. We have recently seen this administration refuse to grant the traditional Pentagon parking lot permit for the annual Memorial Day POW/MIA protest rally and wait until spring to make that known in order to cause a major scramble in hopes the ride would not come together. The ride did come together, although much smaller, and assembled at the Washington Football stadium as pro Hamas and Palestinians protested against United States support for Israel. Another case of American patriots being shunned while anti-Americans are supported. Our POWs and MIAs deserve better honor and respect!! We only have to look at 2020 to see government prejudice. Antifa and the Marxist organization Black Lives Matter, were granted basic immunity to protest, burn cities and trash historical monuments across the nation. Those participating in Marxist anti-American events last year were encouraged by Democrats, not subjected to Covid oppression and allowed to abuse anyone attempting to protect businesses, cities and citizens. This year the Marxist violent groups directed by the Marxist Democrat party have been restrained because the Marxists now control the Presidency, the Congress and Senate. The Marxists don’t need their violent groups at this point because they have the Capitol police, FBI, CDC, NSA, CIA, EPA, Department of the Interior, USDA and all of the keys to control our society and make us comply with the conversion of our constitutional republic to an American Marxist nation. The first thing Biden did was undermine every positive economic action the Trump administration did. Now we are seeing inflation of 3% to 5% monthly with only a predicted government 2% to 3% annual cost of living allowance. The dollar is being devalued!! That is only going to get worse now that Dems and RINOs added several trillion dollars to our national debt with a majority of that spending going to programs that further cement Marxist control. We are being baited with free money so we won’t revolt as they change our economic system and transition all government agencies into tools of Marxist oppression. They will pay people to not work as a means of shutting down small businesses and promoting large multi-national corporations that follow Marxist instructions from the administration. You can already see critical race theory being implemented in these corporations and if workers don’t go along with corporate racism, they get fired. These policies are against the law and the constitution but that isn’t stopping the Biden Administration. They control the justice department so you won’t see any prosecutions of those who are violating the law or the constitution just like last year with the protestors. They are now institutionalizing Marxist speak in our schools and agencies!!! When the federal government refuses to follow the law and enforces law with harsh penalties only on those who are standing for law, order and the constitution what do you get??? You get a law-abiding society that is turned into outlaws targeted by the federal government. That is hard core tyranny!! They are using social media to gather information on individuals to target. The push by the Marxists to defund police is the initial act to set up a federal police force that will take control over time and replace local law enforcement. If states don’t stand up to the federal government the federal government will undermine the 10th amendment and force states into compliance with unconstitutional edicts by the Marxists. How is it the government is refusing to enforce border security? How do they get away with taking constitutional rights away from landlords? How is it they cancel domestic oil production and make us dependent on OPEC again for our gas and oil? Of course, you know Covid masking and restrictions are just a part of the Marxist strategy to shut down small business and force us to obey and depend on government subsidy to survive. I could go on with the easy predictions for the future if the Marxists are not routed out of our government but what can we do about all of this? First of all, we can read and understand the United States Constitution so we know what our freedoms are and what the government can and can’t do if it obeys the laws of our nation. Second, we can get involved in politics and make sure we vote for Americans who follow the constitution as written. When it comes to unlawful edicts by government we must resist and ignore the unlawful commands and protest. If we don’t, we just become compliant slaves of the Marxists. If we don’t stand for freedom and our rights now, we are supporting our own destruction. Small compliance today gives the Marxists more power to tighten the screws and drive the final nails into our coffin in the future. There is no middle ground. We stand for freedom today or suffer the decent into slavery. Keep the faith. Thank a vet for the freedoms we still enjoy and support politicians who will bring back the ones we’ve lost. Fly the flag of the people and be proud you’re an American. Hug the families of those still missing because their quest for closure has not ended. Live the good life and ride for those who can’t.
