As Texas Goes…

Posted on by charliej373

By Charlie Johnston

Charleston, South Carolina – Last week I was interested to find out whether Texas Gov. Greg Abbott was serious about protecting the state’s border in defiance of the Biden Administration. I used to joke that Abbott is always as conservative as voters force him to be. Now, I’m not sure it much matters. Whether Abbott has truly been radicalized by Biden’s open borders or whether he is just doing what he thinks Texans absolutely demand right now, the good of this clash has sprung forth fully formed by events surrounding it.

First, the way 25 red states jumped right in to support Texas showed this may, indeed, be the federal government’s Bud Light moment – a spontaneous outpouring of support over revulsion at what the feds are doing. It is tougher than that: two red states with blue governors (Kentucky and North Carolina) have seen their other statewide officers proclaim solidarity with Texas. It is not just lip service, either. These states have pledged to send materiel and men, if necessary, to help. Meanwhile, truckers are making a convoy down to help.

Contrary to what you hear from the bleating left, there actually is no Constitutional crisis. The Supreme Court did NOT order Texas to stand down or stop putting up barriers, including razor wire. It ordered that the feds can cut it down. No court order is being violated. (It was a typical Roberts court ruling – try to please the Deep State without angering the folksies too much in order, he thinks, to preserve the stature of the court). But this dog’s breakfast of a ruling, combined with obviously compromised or radical judges in the Trump cases, has done more to destroy the credibility of the judicial system than anything in our history. If Roberts had a functioning sense of ethics, to preserve the integrity of the courts, he would have acted vigorously to choke off the Trump cases. You cannot be charged with taking out a loan then paying it back, in full, on time with interest (Letitia James case). You cannot be charged with failing to report personal expenses paid with personal funds on your campaign finance disclosures (Alvin Bragg case). You cannot pass an ex post facto law to allow an obviously mentally disturbed woman to claim the nearly exact plotline of an old Law & Order SVU episode putting her in the place of victim and Trump in the place of aggressor – without any evidence whatsoever- and then refuse to let Trump speak any defense (E. Jean Carroll case). You cannot charge anyone with vigorously questioning the results of an election (Fani Willis case). The Jack Smith case is just a rogue prosecutor trying to make up anything to get a man he hates. The reputation of the courts is in tatters. The left trying to make this seem like Texas defying a court order that it actually is not will NOT, in the long run (and the long run is very short these days) make normal people think Texas is being really bad, but that defying court orders is a matter of choice now. Even though the court did NOT rule that Texas cannot defend itself, in what parallel universe did Justices Roberts and Barrett think that joining Democrats to rule that the federal government can lawfully defy a state in order to facilitate a foreign invasion would be a good idea? The courts have been shedding moral legitimacy for a long time; this ruling seems perfectly designed to shed the tattered vestiges of institutional legitimacy, as well.

In Shakespeare’s Henry IV an antagonistic character claims that he can call forth beasties from the vasty deep. “Why, so can I!” his opponent responds, “But if you call them, will they come?” At least three times now Biden has threatened to sic fighter planes on Americans who resist his authority. As soon as the Supreme Court ruled he could, Biden ordered the border patrol (federal agents) to start cutting the wire and to arrest any Texas National Guardsmen who resisted. The Border Patrol simply said no – they will neither arrest state agents nor cut the wire. This action sent a chill down the spine of Biden and all the aspiring totalitarians of the left who think the only power that exists is the institutional power they hold. They just found out that they cannot count on the soldiers to follow their orders to fire on those soldiers’ family and neighbors. The beasties they always brag about are not coming.

The embarrassingly impotent Biden retaliated by canceling approvals for the export of Liquid Natural Gas from Texas. It is just a temporary measure – and if it is as temporary as the sanctions he occasionally issues against terrorist nations, Texas will be just fine. On the other hand, since Texas is not a brutal dictatorship, Biden might hold the line. What, then, if Texas starts to negotiate unilateral trade agreements with other countries without reference to US law? California did it with China. But that was always either snubbing a Republican administration or advancing the priorities of a Democrat administration. If Texas went that route in defiance of a Democrat administration, the wailing would fill the earth. Biden might, indeed, call out the F-15 fighter jets. But now, he can have no confidence that if he calls them they will fly. It was always a dumb strategy to believe that people you treat with contempt as your minions would jump to follow your orders.

The left will, indeed, try to tighten the screws on the country as the year goes on, frantic that they are losing perceived power. It will get uglier. But now 26 states and a whole cadre of federal agents have experience at saying no and standing together against the federal government. That bodes very well, indeed, for the country.

*********

One of the stories that really brightened my week involved a Pennsylvania school district. After overturning the existing board of education, the new board overturned the previous board’s cancellation of the Indian-based logo of their sports teams. The Susquehannock High School Warriors are Warriors again, thanks to the warriors who won the school board elections.

I have mentioned before that I am 1/8 American Indian (a Georgia tribe – either Creek or Cherokee. My full-blooded great-grandfather did not like to go into detail about it as he was a fugitive from tribal police). Though I have never lived any serious devotion to my Indian heritage, it has irritated the fire out of me that liberal white people think they are honoring us by cancelling all the Indian-based mascots in sports. They are a bunch of arrogant chumps who are trying to cancel all vestiges of our heritage under the rubric of “social justice.”

When I was doing radio in Chicago, we were talking about ethnic heritage one day. I mentioned that I am a polyglot mixture of German, Irish, American Indian, French, Dutch and Scottish. Some silly caller gently told me, “You mean Native American.” I retorted that, “I am native American because I was born here; I am American Indian by ethnic heritage; and I’ll thank you not to tell me what to call myself, paleface!” The station used that clip as a promo for my show for a while.

I was beginning to think things were being cancelled to the point that the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame would be the last sports tribute to a part of my heritage.

*********

On a sadder note, both Walmart and Starbucks fired heroes who protected customers for acting heroically. I guess corporate America wants to get in on the action of punishing the brave and the selfless after New York indicted Daniel Penny for rescuing riders on a subway car who were being threatened with death by an erratic man. The rocket scientist who decided to indict Penny is Alvin Bragg, the same clown who brought the first charges against Donald Trump. It is pretty clear that in the leftist version of America, no good deed would go unpunished. Criminals will be coddled and released while heroes will be fired – or indicted. Barack Obama undoubtedly rejoices at this ‘fundamental transformation’ of American ethics. It is a dark moment in American history. But be not afraid. The darkness will not prevail.

*********

I have been saying since Trump destroyed it that ISIS will not reconstitute in the Middle East: it will reconstitute in Western Europe. Imagine my surprise to find that the former Chief of Intelligence in Germany agrees with me. Hans-Georg Maaßen expects Europe to succumb to Islam soon. We are well on our way to a very interesting year. But again, the darkness will not prevail, even though it holds sway for a time. I pity the angry, Godless leftists who have been forcing this on us. The levees are filled with righteous anger – and when they break, it will be as if a great flood washed all the angry leftists away.

Your adversary the devil walks about the streets as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. But his days are numbered. Stay steady, stay sober and be deliberate that yours will not be before God reveals His mighty hand.

*********

In my travels I met and spoke with one of the FBI whistleblowers, a soft-spoken, gentile young man whose moral compass is fixed solidly on true north. He has enough troubles right now, so I won’t add to them by mentioning his name. What an inspirational pleasure, though, to meet a man young enough to be my son who is willing to suffer for truth, honor, and decency. May we all be the same in this regard. And may the already rotting Deep State suffocate on its own malice.

  9. This post of yours is the first time I have read anything by you. A FB friend put your words on her FB page. I have been reading Jeff Childers but he is too wamby pamby for me. You get to the point, and make excellent comparisons to the actions of the Liberal lunacy that the legal system has turned into. America has fallen to an insane level of degeneracy in many different ways. However, like Jeff, you do not seem like you feel any particular urgency to take matters into our own hands to deal with the bad guys in other areas besides the border fiasco. (Not saying that makes you a wamby pamby guy.) No doubt you know full well how careful you have to be with your words. The reactions to the now useless Supreme Court decision is cause for rejoicing, however it is way short of what is needed to rout out the vermin who are trying to destroy America. Off topic but…when you were sleeping in the woods how did you keep the bugs off.

    1. Welcome Larry. That, by the way, is my middle name (not Lawrence – but Larry. It’s on my birth certificate.) Make sure to check out our CORAC site at corac.co. Not .com, but .co. We have put together a faith based activist group across the country (and a few international spots) of people able and already working together to endure whatever might come. We divided the country up into 15 regions and then set national teams up to deal with specific things like health and wellness, sustainability, crisis response, communications, prayer, education, and defense. Take a look. But we are glad to have you here.

      1. Oh…they didn’t bother me too much. I discovered a weird thing by accident: if you sleep 20 feet or more from water in a mosquito-infested area you will have a significant problem. But if you sleep right near the water, they will hardly bother you. I have no clue why, but that was my experience and it worked every time.

        I don’t get bothered by mosquitoes much. I always thought they were drawn by blood, but my son told me they are actually drawn by your potassium content. Go figure: I have had a significant potassium deficiency my whole life. I choose to think God chose to do that for me so I would not get torn up by mosquitoes when I traversed the country.

  11. I feel reassured, Charlie. I have been pretty confused by all the different threads of this developing story, and this is clarifying. What actually strikes me as the most important thread in this story is the border patrol folks saying no to cutting any wires or arresting any NG or other US citizens as demanded by Biden. At a stroke, they have given support to the rest of the government people to start working together to clean things up on every problem, not just the border. Further, in general, people may finally begin to believe not simply that we *can* get through this together if we were to try, to the belief that we *are* finally getting onto the right path together to move us all forward. That would be a *huge* change in the overall “feel” of what is happening and give strength to many to get through the coming difficulties with optimism that lives are finally improving again and that together we have begun to resurrect our country.

    1. Hi Steve . . . As brilliant as I have perceived you to be (for at least a few years now), I am surprised that you “have been pretty confused”. There are innumerable instances when I see a story (news) developing which takes at least a few days of follow-up info for me to begin clarifying what is really happening.

      You know as well as I do that there is an incredible amount of misinformation and disinformation put out in all forms of media. It seems nearly impossible on some occasions to sift through it and discern properly.

      One thing I have been sure of is that U.S. military forces and border patrol agents will not assail other Americans, be they Texas National Guard of otherwise. Of course, feeling sure of that does not make it so.

      Rather than oppose Charlie directly regarding ACB, I will just mention here that my jury is still out on her. I believe it highly possible she came in on this opinion as she did because it is fairly innocuous to permit the cutting of razor wire, and she very well may be doing some sidling up to Roberts (or any other number of maneuverings she feels necessary). Make no mistake, I have been cautious of her because of other rulings by this court where she has clearly been on the wrong side.

      God bless you Steve

      1. Hey Bonfilius, I am hopeful that this was just a dumb decision by Barrett rather than a revelation of her mindset. Everyone of my friends in politics (me included) made boneheaded calls sometimes. You suck it up and move on, working to be wiser next time. I pray this was just a bonehead move by Barrett rather than a revelation that she is Roberts’ mini-me.

        1. Hello Charlie . . . With my comment of Justice Barrett “sidling up to Roberts”, I did not mean to imply she is becoming a “mini-me” of him. LOL

          I added the “maneuverings” part in the parentheses to give the idea that she might be aligning herself with Roberts, et al, on a few of less significant cases for very clever reasons that we know nothing about.

          I will give an example from elsewhere. VP Mike Pence seemingly has played with the other team beginning Jan. 6, 2021. I think he is maneuvering in concert with Trump in order to defeat the cabal. I will not go into the reasoning I have about this, but a lot of evidence points toward this.

          By the way sir . . . thank you again for another wonderful read.

          1. Okay, I can sure understand that. I will confess to having run several successful misdirection plays in my time. There is something oddly bracing in it. The calumny that is rained on you for a while is not for the faint of heart…but the payoff on a really well-run credible one is truly a thing of beauty. In fact, while this looked like a big decision, it really didn’t change much of anything – except to reveal how unified and galvanized the resistance to this administration’s toxic policies has truly become. I thank you. I need to think through that for a while – but it is an excellent analytical insight that I had passed over because I, too, am on a bit of a hair trigger these days. I will take my own advice to be steadier and more deliberate.

  12. Thoughts on adaptability: Be nimble, flexible and willing to bend and break habits. Challenge yourself. Don’t be afraid to pivot, especially in the midst of distractions. Nor be afraid to ask “stupid” questions. Look above the obstacles to see opportunities for growth and renewal. Don’t cling to one solution set in stone. Explore a wide variety of ideas and resources. If you like tons of info and analyzing, don’t forget to adjust accordingly. Don’t fixate on the temporary. Be as versatile as possible. How do you know that “alternate” route isn’t the one God wants you to take? Be observant. Seek to understand more than to explain. Examine your coping mechanisms. In all things be grateful. Finally, treat it all as muscle that needs exercise.

ALLLL RIGHT!!!!!   I am Re energized.  Over in the not so great state of Hawaii I got an email to write the legislation to not drop Good Friday as a state holiday, which I really cannot bat for as Friday services are NOT over flowing.  But today I got a mention that another bill will be voted on in less than 2 hours for digital ID.I prioritize Divine Mercy over this mickery of “hearing the people”BS .  The legislation is a one party system and worries not one inkling of loosing power…because they won’t.  Democrats are the gods here….and now for the sarcastic laugh….the majority of politicians here I am told are catholics….suuuure they are.

  18. Bravo, Charlie. The first comment above expresses my opinion; living in “Mordor”, we need extra encouragement. Your words do give me hope! I love the analysis of what’s going on with the “Texas affair”.
    Yes, the courts have gone to “hell in a handbasket”! In my city we defeated a Soros type DA who ran for office a few years ago. My theory is that those people have been put in place all over our country, as well as those with “evil backgrounds” who have ascended to judgeships and all manner of other places of power.

  19. I am listening to several podcasters who are physically down in Eagle Pass observing everything.
    One statement made is that they have consistently spotted the Border Control and the Texas Guard hanging out together, chatting, having coffee, working together, etc. There does not appear to be any of the disagreements portrayed by the mass media between the groups. The problem is with the Biden Administration. The Border Control themselves is not happy with the president’s orders. Biden wants the Border control to be humanitarians first and border security way down the list.
    The part about Texas and the US being over-ran is 100% correct, the part about the Border Control being restricted to do their job is false.

  24. Thanks for the assessment. I will pray for the whistle blower. The man or woman who stand up for Truth are warriors.

    Off topic. I laughed today when I heard Shawn Farash. Have you seen this Trump impersonator? If I had my eyes closed, I would think that it was really Trump speaking.

    If you have not heard him, look him up. Laughter is good.

  26. Dear Charlie ~

    Thank you, as always, for your well-reasoned and sourced insights.

    Here’s Governor Kristi Noem’s address yesterday to a joint session of the South Dakota Legislature on the Southern Border:

    I think the problem goes way beyond the cartels, but they certainly facilitate the evil machinations of other entities while also conducting their own evil machinations.

    God bless and keep you and your trusty Subaru ~

    1. I think the problem is with our language. We think “co” means equal, however, the co-pilot is not equal to the pilot.

       I believe it was Mother Teresa that said “No Mary, no Jesus.”

      1. Amen, jeslyou. “Co” comes from the Latin “cum” which means “with.” Both the mystical and Mariology literature of the Church are replete with writings about how Our Lady mystically suffered with Jesus through His Passion. There IS o.n.l.y. one Redeemer, therefore Mary as Co-Redemptrix is the preeminent co-redeemer even as we all are most certainly called to be co-redeemers with Christ. Our Lady at Fatima, and in many of her authentic apparitions, reminded us of this Gospel message given via St. Paul: “I am now rejoicing in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am completing what is lacking in Christ’s afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church.” (Col 1:24) If God desires that our Mother be known as the “Co-Redemptrix” it will happen, and it’s not unusual for the enemy to create confusion with all manner of means to discredit His Plan when God is sending us something He desires. Time will tell. 🙂

  28. Another new study about vaccine related deaths and injuries.

    “…..This would mean two lives saved for roughly 100,000 injections of the Pfizer vaccine. However, there is a risk of 27 deaths per 100,000 doses of Pfizer shot, the researchers calculated. As such, for every life saved by the jab, almost 14 lives would be lost due to the mRNA vaccine, the study stated.”

Charlie Johnston is a former newspaper editor, radio talk show host and political consultant. From Feb. 11, 2011 to Aug. 21, 2012, he walked 3,200 miles across the country, sleeping in the woods, meeting people and praying as he went. He writes on cultural, global and political issues from an orthodox Catholic perspective. He emphasizes that we find God most surely through the ordinary, doing the little things we should with faith and fidelity. His constant refrain is that, to live real joy, we must acknowledge God, take the next right step, and be a sign of hope to those around us. He lives in the Archdiocese of Denver in the United States.
