The Puppet Masters
Intro to the Series
We get caught up in the little stuff — who’s president, how it happened, who to blame. We fixate on the face in front of the curtain — the clown or the statesman — but rarely ask who’s pulling the strings behind them.
We toss around vague culprits: “corporate America,” “the global elite,” “one world government.” But I don’t think it’s the oligarchs or the CEOs. I believe it’s the idealists — the ones who believe so deeply in their vision that they’ve become the puppet masters, manipulating outcomes in the name of the greater good.
So in this arena called politics, I’ll try to pull back the curtain. To shine some light on the power brokers we don’t elect, the movements we don’t see coming, and the hands guiding the show. I’ll offer some insight, some opinion — but the real mysteries? Those are yours to solve.
Because in the end, maybe the only real truth… is your truth.
Covert Agency Manipulation
Notable Cases: Experiments like dosing people with LSD in public settings (e.g., Operation Midnight Climax in San Francisco) or the death of Frank Olson, a scientist who was unknowingly given LSD and later died under
Do some elites or movements support depopulation — quietly or not?
RFK Jr.’s rhetoric around detoxing children, rejecting vaccines, and elevating “natural immunity” taps into those old, unscientific veins — and when implemented from a position of power, they do carry population-level consequences.
Electorial College or Popular Vote
Democrats overwhelmingly favor the popular vote. Republicans strongly prefer the Electoral College. Independents lean toward the popular vote but are more divided. Overall, most Americans favor switching to a popular vote system.

Seeking the Truth as opposed to Affirmation
In essence, a fact-checker's loyalty is to the truth, wherever it may lead. For someone simply seeking to support their own views, their loyalty lies with their pre-existing beliefs.

What a Real Man Does
This section is here to illustrate what a real man does — not in the spotlight, but often before or after it. It’s about character over ego, service over self.
This not about which party, but the devotion to this country exhibited by a few really good men and their wives.
My first example is President Jimmy Carter. I chose him because I don’t think anything in his life was ever about him. While he’s often remembered as a “weak” president and dismissed for it, I see something very different.
To me, his life is a testament to greatness — not the kind that demands attention, but the kind that quietly builds homes, heals nations, and uplifts others long after the cameras are gone.
President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama
“Still Building Something Bigger” Barack Obama didn’t come from money or power. He came from organizing neighborhoods, teaching the Constitution, and believing deeply in what ordinary people could do together. And though he made history
President Dwight D. Eisenhower – General of the Army
"The Commander Who Warned Us All" Dwight D. Eisenhower wasn’t just a five-star general and two-term president—he was a builder, a unifier, and in the end, a truth-teller. The Presidency (1953–1961): Steady Hands in Unsteady
President George H. W. Bush
After the war, Bush attended Yale and moved to Texas to build a life from scratch in the oil industry. He co-founded Zapata Offshore, achieving financial success quietly, without the bravado or headlines. His wealth
Senator John McCain — A Legacy of Courage, Principle, and Service
1967, during the Vietnam War, McCain was shot down over Hanoi and captured. Despite severe injuries and brutal torture, he refused an early release because he insisted that fellow prisoners captured before him be freed
President Jimmy Carter
Election Monitoring: Carter personally observed over 100 elections in 39 countries — from Nicaragua to Ghana — helping ensure democratic integrity where it was fragile or new.

The title pretty much covers it. If you feel that you don’t have a voice, or your vote doesn’t count (I have been there) I have news for you. All the rules around you are determined by very few people, Who are they? The ones that showed up.
Part 1 of “The Cost of Doing Nothing” – Talk
Within 10 minutes, it was clear: we weren’t going to agree on much. The election. The media. January 6. His tone got sharp. Mine probably did too. At one point he said something I thought
Part 2 of “The Cost of Doing Nothing” – Show Up Locally
In many local elections, turnout is under 20%. Sometimes it's under 10%. That means a dozen people at a school board meeting can sway policy. One vote can decide who gets to redraw your district
Part 3 of “The Cost of Doing Nothing” – Vote in the Primaries
“The Extremes Win by Default” By the time you vote in November, the real choice has already been made — often by just 1 in 10 voters.
Part 4 of “The Cost of Doing Nothing” – Fund Local Journalism
But today, many of those newsrooms are gone. Shrinking ad revenue and the rise of free digital content gutted local papers. Hedge funds bought what was left, stripped them for parts, and left ghost publications
Part 5 of “The Cost of Doing Nothing” – Volunteer for a Cause, Not a Party
“Your Country Doesn’t Just Need Voters — It Needs Neighbors” Political engagement doesn’t stop at the ballot box — and it doesn’t always wear a campaign button.
If You Want to Fix It, You Have to Touch It
You don’t get to sit in silence while others vote, organize, or legislate — and then act shocked when the country veers hard left or right. If the future looks more like a police state

Comments About The Current Administration
Know the Players
With so much lying, bashing, and hate, it’s easy to lose track of what’s an obvious lie and what’s just troll bait. So, with the help of AI, here’s a short history lesson about Trump’s “cabinet.”
Is it biased? Of course. I’m about as anti-Trump as you can get. But I do believe him when he says, “Loyalty to me, above all else” — including the Constitution.
Still, they’re human beings. And here, I’m trying to be fair to them.
Do some elites or movements support depopulation — quietly or not?
RFK Jr.’s rhetoric around detoxing children, rejecting vaccines, and elevating “natural immunity” taps into those old, unscientific veins — and when implemented from a position of power, they do carry population-level consequences.
J.D. Vance – Take Two
The Big Contradiction J.D. Vance is either: a bold truth-teller who finally aligned with the political movement he believes can save America, or an ambitious chameleon who betrayed his values for power. His selection as
J.D. Vance, is he wearing Flip Flops or is that just Him?
Flip-Flop on Trump: Vance was originally a vocal critic of Trump, calling him “reprehensible,” “noxious,” and “cultural heroin.” His later embrace of Trumpism has been called opportunistic and disingenuous. Far-Right Alignments: Vance has echoed white
Karoline Leavitt, Sweet Karoline
Several reporters and critics have noted that if a journalist presses too hard on Trump’s controversies or missteps, Leavitt can become dismissive or even block questions — and in some cases, banish reporters from briefings
Kristi Noem – Real or a Parody
Theatrical Public Image Known for “cosplays”, dressing up in themed outfits for photo ops (cowgirl style, law enforcement, etc.). A recent Instagram poll invited followers to vote on her best western-themed look—a move critics called
Mike Johnson, The Speaker Who Took Dictation
Now he holds the gavel. But not the power. That belongs to the man in Florida, who issues commands like prophecy, and Johnson… transcribes them.
Okay, He’s Been Impeached, Now What?
Trump may be impeached, but unless the movement itself is rejected—and the people propping it up held accountable—we’re just swapping one version of autocracy for a smoother, more effective one.
Pam Bondi “Parrot of His Agenda” — Is It Fair?
In 2013, Bondi’s office dropped a Trump University fraud investigation after receiving a $25,000 campaign donation from the Trump Foundation. Though no formal wrongdoing was found, the optics led many to see it as a
Pete Hegseth – Fox News Host and Signal User
Notable Hypocrisy Criticized “liberal elites” while enjoying high-profile media status and political influence. Promotes rugged individualism but supports government intervention on cultural issues (e.g., banning books, curriculum mandates).
Robert F. Kennedy Jr – Part 1
He’s one of the most influential spreaders of vaccine misinformation in the 21st century. Vaccines & Autism: RFK Jr. has promoted the long-debunked claim that vaccines cause autism, particularly targeting thimerosal (a preservative). This has
Robert F. Kennedy Jr – Part 2
Revoked COVID‑19 vaccine recommendation for children & pregnant women Released a directive removing the blanket CDC recommendation for COVID-19 vaccines in these groups This has prompted multiple lawsuits from bodies like AAP, ACP, and Infectious
Who Is Kash Patel?
Kash Patel isn’t just a Trump loyalist — he’s become an ideological enforcer of Trump’s agenda inside national security and intelligence. Whether acting as a lawyer, spokesman, or provocateur, he operates like a partisan commando

I Grew Up with the Truth — Now I Watch Them Bury It
I grew up believing truth had power. That facts could stand on their own — maybe bruised in the headlines, maybe doubted in the moment — but ultimately stronger than lies. And when the truth
“Boring? Try Being a Moderate.”
But make no mistake: if it were Marxists or Leninists destroying us, I’d be saying the exact same thing. Sometimes you have to throw the punch across the line to be heard. That doesn’t mean
Daily Rant: Acceptance and Action
I perceive Trump as a clear and present danger to the Republic. A wannabe dictator — or as I call it, a "dictraitor." He’s a power-hungry tyrant who demands absolute loyalty, sees himself as above
A Call for Violence—Is That Really What You Want?
When you see the uniformed enforcers, remind them: their oath is to the Constitution, not the President. Ask them: Is this what you want for your children’s future? Ask them: Do you want a fight?
Step Two – Acceptance
But laughter made it safe. Laughter made it seem like it wasn’t really serious. They poked fun at Biden too, right? They always poke fun at everyone. So we dismissed the threat. We smirked, shrugged,
🥒 Well, This Is a Fine Pickle We’re In
First off, let’s figure out just who did this to us. All of you. That’s who. I’m blameless. Well, maybe not completely blameless. I didn’t vote for him—I wrote in a name, thinking that would
Good thing I roast my own coffee beans.
What I’m trying to build here is honest commentary — something that might offer insight, even if you don’t yet know the right questions to ask. Maybe this space helps you start asking, instead of
I do Dammit.
And let's be honest — no one really sees what I do. I’m not Elon. I’m not one of the influencers with a million eyes tracking every word. I’m just… me. A nobody trying to
It’s not Paranoia, It’s Real
I’ve lived through times when we actually moved forward. Times when, despite our flaws, we were at least trying to get better. But now? It feels like people are giving up ground they don’t even
The Morning After
As Trump droned on to a completely silent audience, he told us we could now deduct auto loan interest from our taxes — a “first-time-ever” benefit, supposedly created by him. The lies come so easily
Not Quite the Fourth – 2025
I used to feel proud on this day. Now I mostly feel determined. Determined not to let the loudest, angriest voices define what this country becomes. Determined not to let indifference win. Determined to say
A little history to my reasons for being.

One Tin Soldier Walks Away

Once upon a time, I thought only one political party had lost its way — hijacked from within, its values twisted for power and control.
But after enough time, enough forums, and enough arguments fueled more by frustration than facts, I came to see the truth:
Both parties were hijacked.
Not by some outside enemy, but by insiders who learned how to manipulate outrage, redefine loyalty, and silence dissent.
What followed wasn’t a revolution.
It was a slow repurposing of values — from service to performance, from principle to branding.
Today, Republicans aren’t really Republicans unless they’re MAGA.
And Democrats aren’t Democrats unless they’re WOKE.
The Elephant, once proud, now just mutters about how crazy things have gotten.
The Donkey, high on hashtags, barely notices the foundation cracking underfoot.
I used to pick sides.
Now I’m picking up what’s left.
What you’ll find here is a reflection — not of who I was told to hate, but of what I’ve learned to value again.
A reckoning — not with a party, but with myself.
And maybe — a reminder, for anyone still listening:
Silence and loyalty are not the same as integrity.
“Boring? Try Being a Moderate.”
But make no mistake: if it were Marxists or Leninists destroying us, I’d be saying the exact same thing. Sometimes you have to throw the punch across the line to be heard. That doesn’t mean
A Call for Violence—Is That Really What You Want?
When you see the uniformed enforcers, remind them: their oath is to the Constitution, not the President. Ask them: Is this what you want for your children’s future? Ask them: Do you want a fight?
About Here – How it started, and where it is going.
As time passed, I kept wondering: what happens if we impeach the Putz? And I’ll admit, I was hesitant to see the Vice President take over. Why? Because he doesn’t stand for America. He sold
About Sparky and Me
But here’s the sliver of hope—if both MAGA and Woke are finally seeing the same threat, even if from different angles? That might be the crack in the wall where a real alliance can form.
Balancing Green Ambitions with Real-World Energy Needs
Rather than vilifying fossil fuels entirely, we should demand smarter use. Cleaner-burning technologies, stricter emissions standards, and investments in carbon capture can reduce their impact while giving renewables time to scale. Likewise, green energy advocates

Democrats overwhelmingly favor the popular vote. Republicans strongly prefer the Electoral College. Independents lean toward the popular vote but are more divided. Overall, most Americans favor switching to a popular vote system.

Okay, He’s Been Impeached, Now What?
Trump may be impeached, but unless the movement itself is rejected—and the people propping it up held accountable—we’re just swapping one version of autocracy for a smoother, more effective one.

I’m building a political cartoon arc that speaks to the people everyone else has forgotten — the voters who are done with performative politics and ready to rebuild, quietly and seriously.

Dream Teams, let the Party be Damned
On 07/01/2025 by Elephants Room With 0 Comments

Are you tired of the endless bickering, fed up with the lies, and weary of empty promises? You’re not alone. Imagine a world where we move beyond partisan divides, choosing leaders who haven’t sold their souls to wealthy elites. Picture a society that walks down the middle of the road, focused on getting things done for the common good.I’m starting this movement because I’m old, tired, and know that today’s political decisions won’t affect me much. But I care deeply about the world my children and grandchildren will inherit. What kind of future awaits them if we stay trapped in partisan gridlock?We need a no-party system—a way to elect leaders without the baggage of political parties. In this system, candidates run as individuals, not as Democrats or Republicans. They campaign on their own ideas, not party platforms, and voters choose based on merit, not labels. Think of city elections where mayors win by addressing real issues like safety or schools, not by towing a party line. A no-party system frees leaders to form coalitions on specific issues, reducing the influence of powerful elites and fostering practical solutions.This approach can deliver the balance we need:
-
Sustainable Energy: Blend green energy with responsible fossil fuel use for a stable, eco-friendly future.
-
Accessible Healthcare: Build a system that’s affordable and high-quality for all.
-
Community Safety: Strengthen neighborhoods so everyone feels secure, while rebuilding trust with allies to promote global cooperation.
-
Economic Stability: Ensure food on every table and opportunities for all to thrive.
Extreme ideologies—whether far-left or far-right—divide us. By drawing on the best ideas from all sides, we can build a stronger nation and a united people. Let’s reject the status quo and support independent voices who prioritize progress over power. Join me in this crusade for a no-party future—one where our children inherit a world that works for everyone. Start by learning about nonpartisan elections in your community or supporting candidates who put people first
These potential running mates are from my imagination. They are here to illustrate what could be if we didn't rely on antiquated labels like Democrat, WOKE, Republican or MAGA. But we evaluated them based on what they bring to the table.

A Note Before You Read
I’ll be the first to admit: I don’t have all the answers. Most of what you’ll find here comes from my genuine effort to understand what the hell is really going on. A lot of it is gathered and shaped with the help of AI tools—which means it’s based on what’s already been published, regardless of who published it. That has its risks. So don’t take anything here as gospel. But if you’re tired of slogans and hashtags, and want a place to start thinking more deeply, this might be a good launchpad.
“Admitting I was fooled would mean admitting I was wrong — and I can’t do that.”
Even obvious lies, when repeated enough, start to feel true. This is known as the illusory truth effect. The more often we hear something — even if it's absurd — the more familiar and comfortable

Do some elites or movements support depopulation — quietly or not?
RFK Jr.’s rhetoric around detoxing children, rejecting vaccines, and elevating “natural immunity” taps into those old, unscientific veins — and when implemented from a position of power, they do carry population-level consequences.
