Ketanje Brown Jackson: The First DEI Supreme Court Justice

 This essay is intended to be more than just a topic of intellectual interest. It is intended to be a warning of nothing less than the left’s corruption of American democracy and the rule of law.Almost weekly a rogue leftist judge issues an injunction against the Trump Administration exercising it lawful executive branch rights to govern. But, this essay is about Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson who was appointed by President Joe Biden in 2022. [1] 

I wouldn’t begin to suggest that I have any bona fide legal credentials, however I will argue that common sense should tell you Justice Jackson is unqualified to sit on the United States Supreme Court. I would posit that in her relatively short tenure on the court, she has been an embarrassment.

Her scholarship seems to be afflicted by the double influence of existentialism, aka narcissism, and Marxist/Rawlsian Social Justice, which lend themselves to poor judicial objectivity, and which manifests itself in leftist political ideology, mental laziness, and pious rehashing of bankrupt conceptual thinking. I would then proffer that a lawful society cannot allow judges to read the law with a political temperament and survive. That is exactly, by her own words, what Justice Jackson brags about doing on the court. 

In a US Supreme Court decision [2] (July 8, 2025), Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was the lone dissenter in a Court opinion (8 - 1) that allows the Trump Administration and any future administration to go forward with reductions in force (RIF) in all federal agencies in accordance with applicable law. This decision overturned a San Francisco Clinton appointed judge's injunction in February 2025, and the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals decision to uphold the lower court’s injunction (2 - 1).

JUSTICE JACKSON, in a lengthy rebuttal to the Court’s 8 - 1 decision, hence dissenting from the grant of application for stay, was an embarrassment to jurisprudence. In this case, even Justice Jackson's liberal colleague, Justice Sonia Sotomayor, corrected her to note that “Here, the relevant Executive Order directs agencies to plan reorganizations and reductions in force consistent with applicable law, and the plans themselves are not before this Court, at this stage, and we thus have no occasion to consider whether they can and will be carried out consistent with the constraints of law.” [3]

Additionally, last month (June 2025) the US Supreme Court ruled 6 - 3 that federal district court judges do not have the authority to issue nationwide injunctions. [4]

Justice Amy Coney Barrett, in her majority opinion, took an unusual stance, and chastised Justice Jackson’s dissent as follows: “We will not dwell on JUSTICE JACKSON's argument, which is at odds with more than two centuries worth of precedent, not to mention the Constitution itself. We observe only this: JUSTICE JACKSON decries an imperial Executive while embracing an imperial Judiciary.” [5]  Justice Barrett’s cogent and insightful opinion goes further, but should be read in its entirety elsewhere.

Moreover, in a recent interview (July 9, 2025) with ABC News, Justice Jackson had this to say about being a Justice on the United States Supreme Court: “I just feel that I have a wonderful opportunity to tell people in my opinions how I feel about the issues, and that’s what I try to do.” Really?

Accordingly, it is argued here that Justice Jackson lacks rudimentary jurisprudence and should be removed from the Court. Yet, can a sitting judge on the United States Supreme Court be “fired.” The short answer is yes, BUT. And the “but” is a big one. 

A clear analysis of this issue can be found on legalclarity.org. [ 6]

Essentially, Supreme Court justices cannot be fired in the conventional sense. The standard for removing a Supreme Court justice is found in the U.S. Constitution. Article III, Section 1 states that federal judges “shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour.” While not explicitly defined, “good Behaviour” is understood to mean justices can only be removed for cause. This clause is the basis for the impeachment process. 

The grounds for impeachment are not limited to indictable criminal offenses but can include abuse of power, serious breaches of public trust, or conduct that brings the judiciary into disrepute.

The removal of a justice is a two-stage process handled by Congress. The process begins in the House of Representatives, where a member introduces articles of impeachment, which are formal written accusations. The House Judiciary Committee investigates these articles, gathers evidence, and may hold hearings. For the justice to be impeached, the full House must approve the articles by a simple majority vote.

After the House impeaches a justice, the Senate conducts a trial. In this proceeding, the Senate acts as the jury, while designated House members serve as prosecutors. The impeached justice has the right to a defense, including presenting evidence and being represented by counsel. The Chief Justice of the United States presides over the trial of a Supreme Court Justice.

A conviction requires a super majority vote of two-thirds of the senators present. If the Senate reaches this threshold on any article, the justice is removed from office. The Senate’s judgment is limited to removal and disqualification from holding any future federal office. The individual may also be subject to separate criminal prosecution in the court system.

Justices more commonly leave the Supreme Court through voluntary retirement. A justice may also resign from their position, which is a formal step down without the benefits of retirement. Finally, a justice’s tenure ends upon their death.

Well, what’s it going to be Justice Jackson? It’s a retorical question. Leftist elitists never ever give up their government largesse, especially if it’s the right thing to do.

Israel - Iran Cease-Fire Deal: Trump’s Mistake

 

On January 16. 2025, this blog delineated an analysis of a cease-fire and hostage exchange between Israel and Hamas (a Terrorist Organization), scheduled to take effect on Sunday, January 19, 2025. Israel’s War on Terrorism: Lessons From History https://thegreygrater.blogspot.com/2025/01/israels-war-on-terrorism-lessons-from.html

It did not turn out as was planned or well for Israel. Half of the Israeli hostages, both the living and dead, remain in captivity in Gaza. It was widely recognized that the cease-fire was achieved because of ultimatum by Donald J. Trump who would be  inaugurated as the 47th president of the United States of America, on January 20, 2025.

Now, Israel and Iran have agreed to a cease-fire following 12 days of intense conflict, with the ceasefire now in effect as of June 24, 2025. The cease-fire was brokered by US President Trump, which was initiated at the request of Iran, and its diplomatic proxies, and begrudgingly accepted by Israel. 

However, reported today (June 26,2025) in The Times of Israel and other publications through out the world: “Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei claimed US President Donald Trump had “exaggerated” the impact of strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, while threatening to repeat the “slap” his country had dealt American forces in the region, speaking in a televised address Thursday (June 26, 2025).” Khamenei “also hailed his country’s “victory” in the 12-day air war launched by Israel, which he claimed had “almost collapsed” because of Iran’s strikes.” Furthermore, he said. “Surrender will never happen. Our nation is powerful.” Khamenei told viewers that the US had only intervened in the war because “it felt that if it did not intervene, the Zionist regime would be utterly destroyed.”

Well, there you have it President Trump.

It is usually others who never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity! Like the Hamas cease-fire in January, the Iran cease-fire in June will not bring change to the middle-east so desperately needed and hopefully sought. Yes, Iran’s nuclear capability has been diminished. However, its raison d'être has not been “obliterated”!

The lessons of history clearly predict that this settlement will result in further bloodshed and negate the sacrifices already made by Israel’s soldiers and civilian population, and US interests.

Like in Gaza, John David Lewis’s book, Nothing Less Than Victory: Decisive Wars And The Lessons of History (Princeton University Press, 2010), is instructive. Professor Lewis imparts this important lesson:

    “that the fact of defeat ... led to lasting peace only when the fact of defeat was openly recognized             and the legitimacy of the victor’s terms was accepted by the vanquished."

It should be clear, Iran and its proxies believe they have not been vanquished,  have not been defeated, and that the Regime lives on to fight another day. And fight they will.

The Trump Supremacy

 

A man walks into a bar.

The bartender asks the man, “ what can I get for you.”

The man says, ”I want an honest politician.”

The bartender says, “well pal, you allready have that, 

Donald J. Trump.”

The bartender then brings the man a drink and says, “here pal, 

drink this Bourbon, and thank G-d for Donald J. Trump.”

What is happening? The short answer is Trump Delusional Syndrome (TDS). The disease is spread by dishonest, manipulating liberal politicians (Democratic Party); the equally dishonest, manipulating Main Stream Media (MSM); and America's Educational Institutions. Its cure is simple, and at the same time difficult.

A delusional person simply needs to ignore those that spread the disease, while at the same time believe what he/she see. It should be noted that you can accomplish this without a pernicious vaccine, isolation, social distancing, and wearing a mask.

The Democratic Party, Main Stream Media, and Educational Institutions, have failed America and themselves because their political agenda is anti-American, woke, corrupt, and mendacious. They simply have no arguments and supporting evidence to justify their case. Their philosophy is bankrupt. Their credibility is lost. They have no contrition. 

This is for the best. Like the proverbial apple, they are rotten to the core. They will not change. They cannot change. They are who they are. They are pathologically corrupt and pathetically egotistical. They have nothing to offer.

Thank G-d for Donald J. Trump!

War in Ukraine: Elon Musk on The Reason Why

 

The Republican Nation website today published a 2014 video “Linking US To Ukraine’s Political Crisis” that Elon Musk has drawn attention (to). https://republicannation.com/musk-resurfaces-2014-video-linking-us-to-ukraines-political-crisis/ The video is an interview with Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) admitting that U.S. policies played a role in removing Viktor Yanukovych,  President of Ukraine (2010 -- 2014), from power.

By releasing the video now, Musk is bringing renewed attention to the role the U.S. played in setting Ukraine on a path to war. Well, that’s today’s news, but on March 7, 2014, exactly 11 years ago, I wrote a similar essay https://thegreygrater.blogspot.com/2014/03/plan-x-for-ukraine-game-changer.html. I am republishing it here because if you want to end this war, you damn well better know why it started.

Now (2014) that Russian President Vladimir Putin has gotten his way in Crimea and Ukraine, thanks in no small measure to the bumbling bureaucrats in Brussels, and the naïve amateurs in America (Obama Administration).  

There is nothing this administration and its allies have but excuses. American military action in the Ukraine, with Mr. Obama as Commander in Chief, is off the table. We’re spread too thin. NATO intervention requiring the support of European capitals – never happened. Besides, Ukraine is not a member of NATO, so no Charter obligation. Economic sanctions sure, but the other side can play that game too. In fact, the crisis has increased energy prices that will compensate Russia for lost revenue from other sources. Other sanctions such as visas, suspending multi-lateral talks, canceling meeting participation, and White House non-participation in the Sochi Paralympics Games, are all under consideration.

This explains a lot as to why American and European foreign policy has been so risible and pathetic. The Russians, Chinese, Israelis, Egyptians, and others, understand that the world is a dangerous place, even deadly, not classroom exercises. Lives are at stake, and the possibility of a catastrophic event is not science fiction. History for these people is long and incredibly serious, and not correlated to today’s bankrupt sensibilities and cultural deprivation.

If you follow the dialogue between Messrs. Putin and Sergey Lavrov on the one side, and Messrs. Obama and Kerry on the other, you would think you went through time and found yourself in March 1999. But, it would be confusing. Then it was Bill Clinton and Madeleine Albright, playing the parts of Putin and Lavrov defending NATO’s duty to go to war in Kosovo, and Boris Yeltsin and Igor Ivanov searching for a peaceful solution. It’s true, where you sit is where you stand.

Bill Clinton and Madeleine Albright lied about the “atrocities” being committed in Kosovo leading up to the war in March 1999. What was going on in Kosovo in 1999 was a military campaign waged by the Kosovo Liberation Army (“KLA”), to separate Kosovo from Serbia, and eventually create a greater Albania, made up of Albania, Kosovo, northern Macedonia, and the Preševo Valley in Serbia. The so-called humanitarian disaster in Kosovo was orchestrated by the KLA, not Serbia. Mr. Clinton’s statement to the nation, read: “We act to protect thousands of innocent people,” while Madeleine Albright chirped endlessly about atrocities being committed by the Serbs. It was all lies. The real perpetrator was the KLA, Mr. Clinton’s and Madame Albright’s “freedom fighters.”

Moreover, the KLA took advantage of the Holbrooke Agreement (Rambouillet) in October 1998, in which Serbia removed its forces from Kosovo, to conduct its bloody military campaign. This was never made public. There were very few incidents of Albanian civilians being attacked by Serbian forces (see OSCE reports of monitoring groups). The total number of Albanian civilians killed before the war started in March 1999, was at most, 47. So the rai·son d'être for NATO to go to war was at best suspicious.

Today we know we were being told more lies by the Obama Administration and the European Union (“EU”).  On February 18, protesters attack police lines and set fires outside parliament. Riot police respond to the violence by trying to push protesters off Independence Square. At least 26 people died and hundreds were injured. On February 20, hours after a truce is announced, violence resumes, with snipers shooting protesters from the rooftops. All the Western media and government officials reported that the snipers were under orders from the Ukrainian Government of President Viktor Yanukovych.

Not so fast. First reported on ZeroHedge.com, on March 5, 2014, a new recording of a telephone conversation between EU foreign affairs head Catherine Ashton and Estonian foreign minister Urmas Paet, revealed this disturbing news: In the conversation, Mr. Paet states that:

    “the killing was from both sides, policemen and people from the street… So there is now stronger                 and stronger understanding that behind the snipers, it was not Yanukovych, but it was somebody                 from the new coalition.”

The upshot is: first the United States orchestrated and foments the overthrow of the legally elected Yanukovych government because the West did not like his decision on the EU; and now we learn the leaders of the newly installed Coalition Government, were the ones who ordered the killings in the Maidan Square in Kyiv, the capital city of the Ukraine. There is evidence to suggest that the Coalition Government that came to power with US and EU support,  murdered its own people to fabricate the pretext under which it took power. 

Does this act remind you of anything? That’s right, Kosovo.

The Coalition was running the KLA playbook, and the US and EU were laying down cover. But this time their hand is weak. NATO is a shell of its former self, and Russia is not Serbia. As a result, Crimea and Eastern Ukraine are now for all intents and purposes part of Russia.

And finally, Mr. Obama now tells us that what Russia is doing violates international law. He lectures:

    “There is a strong belief that Russia’s action is violating international law. I know President Putin                 seems to have a different set of lawyers making a different set of interpretations, but I don’t think                 that’s fooling anybody.”

Well, Mr. Obama and Mr. Putin must have hired the same lawyers Bill Clinton and Tony Blair had to justify NATO’s war in Serbia (Kosovo). Then the Russians argued that the Kosovo War and recognition of Kosovo’s independence was a violation of international law, a UN Resolution, the UN Charter, and the principle of national sovereignty forged out of the horror of World War II. So, Mr. Obama, the only one fooling anybody is you, your Administration, and the Brussels bureaucrats. Kosovo was folly, and until you correct that mistake, it is disingenuous to tell others they are acting badly.

Mr. Obama and company have another foreign policy failure on their hands. A word to the people of Ukraine -- do you really think a man like Mr. Obama, who would not save his own Ambassador in Benghazi, Libya against a band of terrorists, would come to your rescue?

He didn’t! Hence, under the Biden Administration, the war in Ukraine has raged on since February 2022 to the present with millions of lives lost on both sides. 

Well, that’s the story, and humanity can only weep.

Trump’s Gaza Proposal


During a press conference held at the White House on February 4th, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump said, “The US will take over the Gaza Strip.” 

 

Trump on other occasions has said ‘he would like to see all Palestinians move to other Arab countries.’ He further proffered that Palestinian control of Gaza “will never work.” And he added: “You have to learn from history.” It should also be noted that there is no Palestinian state and no sovereign power in the territory.

 

When I was doing a residency with the Department of Hospitals, New York City, in 1968, the Commissioner would allow me to attend many of his staff meetings, in which one short phrase would silence the room: “let me tell you how it is.” Well, regarding Trump’s Gaza proposal, let me tell you how it is. As in many of President Trump’s pronouncements, the truth is in the details, and hidden from naive eyes. 

 

The idea of Gaza as an American protectorate is a red herring. Technically since Gaza is not a State, it cannot be a US protectorate. However, it can be a US quasi-protectorate, giving the US exclusive control or influence in the territory. I would posit that the Middle East would have difficulty accepting Israel's return to Gaza. however, the US in Gaza is ‘a horse of another color,’ and therefore is feasible.

 

The Palestinians, of course, don’t get it, or more likely don’t want to. This is the hard truth that Trump understands. The Palestinian population’s attitudes and ideology towards Israel have not been broken by its latest war. The war against Israel has been the policy of the Palestinians since, at least, 1948, in which every child has been indoctrinated into the hatred and destruction of the Israeli people and their state, i.e. "from the river to the sea."  

 

Senior Hamas official Khalil al-Hayya repeated the terrorist organization’s commitment to the destruction of Israel in his first public remarks (January 17, 2025). Al-Hayya described the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre of 1,200 people in Israel as a “miraculous” achievement, declaring the atrocities would “remain a source of pride” for Palestinians, “passed down through generations.” Hamas terrorists “will expel the occupation from our land and from Al Quds [Jerusalem] at the earliest time possible.” (Jewish News Syndicate)

 

Now, let me tell you this. Trump’s proposal changes the conversation, which is genius. Without a culturally bankrupt terrorist territory on Israel’s southern border, one gigantic obstacle to peace in the Middle East is solved, which also would allow Israel and other actors to concentrate on Iran, the real tyrannical state in the Middle East. Public enemy number one if you will.

 

In conclusion, the Palestinians essentially had a “Palestinian State” in Gaza and the West Bank, since the Oslo Accords in 1993. But, have created nothing; absolutely nothing except tunnels to destroy Israel. Someone should have told them that this is not the 7th Century. Maybe living elsewhere, in a civilized society, will destroy the ideology that has prevented peace in the Middle East.

Israel’s War on Terrorism: Lessons From History



It should be perfectly clear that Israel’s war on terrorism is both a war against state and non-state terrorists. The state actors are Hamas and Iran (Turkey under Erdogan), while the non-state actors are Hezbollah, Houthis, and the Islamic Republic. Destruction of both is essential for a lasting peace.

However, we are now told that a cease-fire and hostage exchange is scheduled for Sunday, January 19, 2025, the day before Donald J. Trump will be inaugurated as the 47th president of the United States of America. The first phase is the release of civilian women, children, and those over 50 held hostage by Hamas (approximately 33 of the 100 people held by Hamas, yet most experts believe that half of the remaining hostages are dead). In exchange, Israel will release Hamas terrorists aka prisoners (approximately 12 for 1 or 396), and a withdrawal from populated parts of Gaza. Phase two includes the release of all other hostages by Hamas and a full pullout of Israeli troops. The final phase would include a return of the bodies of the hostages who died in captivity and the start of Gaza’s reconstruction. During the phases, the United Nations would assume a leading role in governing Gaza.

This settlement for Israel borders on the psychotic! 

The lessons of history clearly predict that this settlement will result in further bloodshed and negate the sacrifices already made by Israel’s soldiers and civilian population. 

The very best understanding of this is the brilliant work of John David Lewis’s scholarly book, Nothing Less Than Victory: Decisive Wars And The Lessons of History (Princeton University Press, 2010). Professor Lewis proffers that “conflicts began (sic) with an act of military aggression (in this case against an unarmed civilian population) ... The goal of war is the subjugation of the hostile will ... the object of war is now and has always been, the overcoming of the hostile will to resist ... When that will is broken, then capitulation follows.”

Now think about this “peace deal”. Hamas’s will has not been broken. The terrorist state continues its fight. The Palestinian population’s attitudes and ideology towards Israel have not been broken. In fact, they were dancing in their streets of rubble when news of a peace deal was announced. They do not believe they were defeated -- just another ceasefire in their war to destroy the Israeli State. There has been no surrender! (1)

I would proffer that the lesson of Japan’s unconditional surrender in 1945 is the template for ending the war in Gaza and lasting peace. War was a national policy for Japan since 1889.  One of the most powerful documents in modern Japanese history was the 1890, “Imperial Rescript on Education,” which obligated every child to a system of education that focused on “worshipful obedience to the emperor, sacrifice to the nation, and warrior virtues.”

Similarly, the war against Israel has been the policy of the Palestinians since, at least, 1947, in which every child was indoctrinated into the hatred and destruction of the Israeli people and their state, i.e. "from the river to the sea."  

Professor Lewis instructs that the educational focal point for Japanese students was the imperial portraits. Similarly, Yasser Arafat’s likeness was the ubiquitous focal point for Palestinians. 

According to Professor Lewis and other historians, “To achieve victory, one must first know what victory is ... for the United States, it was the total and permanent destruction of Japan’s will and capacity to fight." That meant: unconditional surrender. Israel’s war with terrorist states and non-terrorist state actors, it means the destruction of an ideology that is based on the hatred of Israel and the Jewish people. And more importantly, every Palestinian must be convinced beyond a doubt of their defeat. (2)

In 1945, the American attitude towards Japan was: “The entire population of Japan is a proper Military Target ... There Are No Civilians in Japan.” The Potsdam Declaration of July 26, 1945, signed by the United States, Great Britain, and China was an ultimatum. There was no negotiation. It reads in part:

“The time has come for Japan to decide whether she will continue to be controlled by those self-willed militaristic advisers whose unintelligent calculations have brought the Empire of Japan to the threshold of annihilation, or whether she will follow the path of reason."

As an ultimatum, it eliminated any possibility of negotiation between the foes.

Similarly, the time has come for the Palestinians to decide. It should not be a settlement for the end of hostilities and an outrageous exchange of hostages and terrorist prisoners between Israel and the Palestinians that should be adopted, but a Potsdam-like Ultimatum. 

Furthermore, there is no place for the United Nations (UN) in post-war Gaza. The UN has failed in every peacekeeping mission and its unambiguous anti-Semitism is well documented. The most important goal of post-war Gaza must be to eliminate the ideology that has prevented peace. Teachers will need to be replaced and textbooks rewritten, to discredit the ideology that gives rise to this hatred. History has repeatedly proffered that defeat must be real, or a lasting peace is illusionary and fleeting.

In conclusion, Professor Lewis imparts to us this important lesson:

“that the fact of defeat ... led to lasting peace only when the fact of defeat was openly recognized and the legitimacy of the victor’s terms was accepted by the vanquished."

According to al-Hayya, the terrorist group during negotiations succeeded in thwarting Israel’s “declared and hidden goals…” Al-Hayya described the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre of 1,200 people in Israel as a “miraculous” achievement, declaring the atrocities would “remain a source of pride” for Palestinians, “passed down through generations.” Hamas terrorists “will expel the occupation from our land and from Al Quds [Jerusalem] at the earliest time possible,” al-Hayya promised, adding: “Our enemy will never see a moment of weakness from us” (Jewish News Syndicate).

“The Eve of Destruction” Biden’s Immigration Policy

 Don't you understand, what I'm trying to say?

Can't you feel the fears that I'm feeling today?

Take a look around you, boy, it's bound to scare you, boy

And you tell me over and over and over again my friend

Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction

 

Bob Dylan / P.F. Sloan 

Eve Of Destruction (1965)


It has taken a while for America’s oblivious Main Stream Media (MSM) to begin to comprehend that bringing in millions of undocumented aliens to boost the Democratic voter roles may not be as great an idea as once thought when it also brings in communicable diseases. 

The Biden Administration is running Obama’s playbook for the destruction of a free America. One ruled not by laws but by tyrants; both the bureaucratic and judicial types. 

Opening up the southern border to communicable diseases, Mexican Drug Cartels, and Islamic Jihadists hasn’t deterred the Biden Administration and Democratic members of Congress. So now Mr. Biden permits and dare I say encourages, the introduction of communicable diseases, to the United States and the North American Continent without deterrence.

The CDC, it should be noted, was originally an agency within the U.S. Public Health Service (USPHS). The USPHS was founded in 1798. Its earliest mission was the care of sick and disabled seamen in USPHS-established hospitals. But more significantly to the matter at hand, in 1878, the USPHS mission was expanded to take on control of infectious diseases, including quarantine, which previously had been a state function. As immigration increased, in the late 19th century, the USPHS took on the responsibility.

Yet today, millions of illegal immigrants cross our borders without even a cursory examination of their medical condition. I guess the Biden Administration did not get the memo on who is responsible in this county to evaluate and if necessary quarantine and deny admission to an individual for communicable diseases. That was not meant as a joke.

Finally, we are lectured that the American public should be compassionate with these people who only want to improve their lives for themselves and their children. Well, we heard that “compassion” thing a lot these past 3 years. Nevertheless, why has the Biden Administration turned a blind eye to U.S. Code, Section 34.3 of 42 CFR Part 34[1]? Should not Mr. Biden be concerned that thousands of illegal immigrants are coming across our borders with infectious diseases such as drug-resistant tuberculosis; COVID-19; hepatitis A and B; sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) - gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes, trichomoniasis, chlamydia; mumps; chickenpox; dengue fever; etc. 

However, these diseases are not just confined to border states, as illegal aliens are systematically dispersed across the nation, it becomes a potentially perilous danger for the entire nation. 

Still, the Powers To Be tells us not to worry. The United States Public Health Service, Centers for Disease Control (CDC), National Institute of Health (NIH), The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID); et al, will be there to ensure our safety. Never mind that just in the recent past, the NIH, CDC, and NIAID: 

1. Mishandled live anthrax;

2. Misplaced live smallpox;

3. Mislabeled influenza virus that had been cross-contaminated with the highly deadly H5NI strain of bird flu.

4. Destroyed America’s confidence in its ability to fight infectious diseases in its handling of the COVID-19 virus.

5. Destroyed America’s confidence in effective vaccines.

If you think this is the worst that can happen - think again. Throughout history, mankind has been devastated by a pathogen commonly referred to as the “Plague." Infected with the pathogen Yersinia pestis, a disease vector will transmit to another living organism (people), and once infected, humans will transfer the disease to other humans. For example, in Simon Sebag Montefiore’s history, The World, he notes that “the plague had killed 30,000 people in the first year of James I’s reign (1603 to 1625), and 40,000 in 1625, ... then kllled 100,000 Britons out of a population of 5.2 million in the summer of 1665.” Another example in Montefiore’s history is that “in 1720, the plague’s last European wave killed 90,000 out of 150,000 people in Marseilles.” 

However, it should be noted that, today you can bypass the vector and create the bacilli and virus in a lab.[2]

These examples are left to history, however, there is always history yet to be written. We can take nothing for granted. Our government has a duty to protect the American people from all enemies, including the threat to literally the health of our Nation. 

The pandemic potential of this moronic and inept decision to allow unfettered illegal immigration into our country by the Biden Administration should alarm any rational person. And who stands between a catastrophic pandemic and us? Indeed, a politically correct DEI Dr. Rachel Levine, aka Richard Levine, the Assistant Secretary for Health at the US Department of Health and Human Services, the first openly transgender four-star officer across the nation’s eight uniformed services; the NIH; the NIAID; the CDC; and the Biden Administration. 

The salient question is this. Can a nation survive the pathological and pathetic leadership we have today in the United States? The question is rhetorical. No. Not unless there is a change in government.
