'The Final Battle': Remarks to the Whatcom County Republican Party

The following remarks were delivered to the Whatcom County Lincoln Day Dinner on March 23, 2024, in Ferndale, Washington.

I struggled with what to talk to you about tonight. 

Well, that’s not true. I didn't struggle with what to talk to you about – I struggled with whether I was brave enough to say what I wanted to say. 

When I'm invited to speak to groups, I don't want to offend anyone or be too controversial. So, I reached out to a few of your fellow party members to ask whether any topics were off limits or wouldn't go over well with the crowd. 

I got some good advice. 

Then I decided to ignore that good advice entirely.

Too much is at stake to be polite. 

As we sit here tonight, we are in the final battle of a war. 

A war that has pit sanity against insanity. 

Pragmatism against idealism. 

A war that has sacrificed the public good, in favor of a twisted idea of progress.

It's a war that began long before I moved here 15 years ago. It started silently and it was mostly waged in the shadows.

Most of us didn't even realize that a war was being fought. We were too caught up in our own lives and our own problems. ...

The Minority Report Operations on its way to the USA ?
Personal Note: Five things to consider:
1. AI generation of Human fakes on the internet via voice and look a likes.
2. AI is able to rewrite texts, and chats when given access to personal accounts.
3. AI can be ordered to attack anyone to make a person look bad in any situation. So unless you are ready to handle deep fakes and know how to fight it. Minority Report is a really bad idea considering people are dying right now, losing jobs, losing their ability to attend their church because they were being Critical about Israel and being 1st Amendment approved to be critical of another country which is our right under our Constitution. I don't see Israel first under our Constitution. I see We The People Of The United States Of America. And this gives us the right to free speech and being critical of any country, religion, people, elected leaders and fellow neighbors. Period. End of Personal Note.

Now lets listen to what is going on ...
