Publius

Publius

 I have been reading Glenn Becks book "The Original Argument" of late. I have found some similarities and yet some remarkable objections to how the media and et alii, have handled the Brent Kavanaugh proceedings over the past 3-days.

Publius is a reference to Publius Valerius Publicola, a supporter of the Roman Republic. John Jay, Alexander Hamilton, and James Madison used the pen name Publius, to create essays. These essays were used to convince New York and Virginia to adopt the constitution as written in Philadelphia 1787.  A pseudonym was used by many at the time to debate, for and against the constitution. Some wanted to keep their independence and create mini-states with no affiliation with another. Others wanted a federal government with limited powers. We are fortunate that the writers of what we now know as the Federalist papers, won the day and our constitution was ratified.  My point is when the NY Times published the anonymous op-ed detailing what I might refer to as a spy, hell-bent on resisting the POTUS, I want you to know it is not unusual. Here in Virginia, we have the Williamsburg Gazette's last word. The last word was created around this very idea of anonymous speech. Ben Franklin used a pseudonym Silence Dogwood to write letters. I have used a pseudonym in the past. I had suspected, I had been blacklisted by the Daily Press and Williamsburg Gazette. I chose the pseudonym Alpheus Baker. I wrote one opinion under this name after many opinions had been rejected and for months. The very first opinion I wrote, was published. Since that day, I have been published again only after revealing my trickery. Note: I usually write way past my  250-word  limit so, sometimes it is on me to limit my content to be considered. 

While we can agree our history is littered with published pseudonyms and anonymity opinions, such a classless approach to change found in the NY Times today, is rather repugnant to me. The writer of the op-ed found in the NY Times this week was either false or the writer is a coward. For the NY Times to publish such an attack shows us the mainstream media bias toward the POTUS. I choose to see this op-ed as "fake news" unless the NY Times publishes a name. The corrupt Washington Post is reporting sleeper cells inside the WH resisting the POTUS. This is fake news unless the Post can produce named sources. Here is hoping the secret service raids the Washington Post and NY times to find the spies and traitors or confirm the fake news as, enough is enough. 

I have had the liberty to observe the supreme court proceedings this week. I find the minorities attempt to publicly humiliate the prospect for the supreme court to be childish. Let us be clear, Cory Booker's feverish stall tactic and one-upmanship proved  to be the fatal wreck of, a ship of fools. A reference to Spartacus plays for us the same old tired battle hymn of race and slavery.  Nothing more than a means to divide and rally an uneducated voter.  At least Spartacus died on the battlefield heroically. Cory Booker committed suicide in today's hearings. 

I have to ask, how is Senator Blumenthal able to live with himself, caught lying to veterans. How can the Democrats stand there and accuse the POTUS of dodging the Vietnam war when within their own ranks, Senator Blumenthal, did the same thing. At least the POTUS was honest about his whereabouts during the war. Senator Blumenthal lied and stole valor. This man has no business representing Americans let alone sitting in on the confirmation hearings. 

In closing, I believe the Democrats and the media are purposely releasing fake opinions and news to distract from the confirmation hearings. I believe these two entities are working together to destroy our freedom, our nation and willfully use any means necessary to grab power.
