My Books
Turn Right At Lost: Recalculating America
( June 22, 2016 : Paperback )
My first book was an exploration of the continuing deterioration of our self-reliant and patriotic American Culture, the creeping collectivist attitude of the voters, and the near pandemic of narcissism across our great country.
President Barack Obama provided me with a ton of juicy political and cultural fodder. He was so self absorbed he never noticed his own outright racism, progressive condescension, or blatant hypocrisy. He pandered to voters, traipsing around the country promising everything to everybody. Obama was easy pickings.
Then along came the Man From New York, Mister Golden Hair Surprise. Who knew what that would lead to?
Candidate Hillary Clinton foreshadowed the impending cultural calamity that would occur when a rogue disrupter suddenly became the 45th President of the United States.
The Neighbor Hood Hijacker:
The Heroic Effort To Stop The Plundering Of Our Community
(March 23, 2017 : eBook )
In the Spring of 2012 he Escondido Country Club, which was squeezed into a housing tract via a special Conditional Use Permit (CUP), fell into financial trouble. After 4 years of a recession it had lost membership, because lots of people had lost their jobs and had to resign their memberships. The maintenance costs were skyrocketing due to a decade-long drought, and developers were waiting in the shadows drooling at the prospect of purchasing acres of flat, centrally located land in North County San Diego.
It was a perfect storm that would lead to the downfall of dozens of golf courses in San Diego and many rural areas in the Southwestern United States. Though I was unable to keep my membership, I held out hope that the opportunity might present itself sometime in the future.
Then suddenly a letter arrived in the mail. The Country Club had been sold and the new owner was going to redevelop it into a huge housing tract. Sticking hundreds of 21st century homes in the middle of it was like painting graffiti over the Mona Lisa. The community was under attack. On the surface it was a simple case of economic realities. But I considered it a microcosm of the civil unrest in America: Conservatives vs. Progressives.
And the issue of disregarding the community identity without consulting the owners was, in my mind, simply wrong. As I wrote the book, it became apparent to me that there was also a much larger issue at play: Our entire country was being hijacked by powerful special interests that could care less about what the residents wanted.
Trump's Reckoning:
Bulldozing Progressivism, Rebuilding Americanism
(June 24, 2018 : eBook, Hardcover, Paperback )
I am very proud of my 3rd book, Trump's Reckoning, and the title was prescient. The man was confronted with four years of the most libelous, coordinated subterfuge and seditious resistance anyone could have imagined, yet he accomplished an astonishing number of his promises. And then some.
I have always said I have a unique perspective on Donald Trump. A point of view you seldom get from the intellectuals, the news media and the celebrity class: I spent three decades in the building industry and Trump is a builder. Builders have a unique MO: They have no patience for committees, for excuses, for cost overruns, for political correctness, for excessive burdens, restrictions, or any other government petulance. They have plans and schedules. They rely on honesty, accountability and performance. If only we could get our political class to mimic those standards, we might actually save the country!
I have read several books by prominent authors about the Trump Presidency, and I will stack mine up with any of them. I correctly identified many of the chaotic undercurrents perpetuated by the regime of Joe Biden.
But I was wrong about one thing: I totally underestimated the evil nature of the Deep State. I was under the false assumption that our elections were actually functional and honest. I was a prisoner of the illusion of knowledge.
The Illusion Of Knowledge:
Why So Many Educated Americans Embrace Marxism
( January 6, 2020 : eBook, Hardcover, Paperback)
As I spoke to local conservative groups I was asked one question, over and over again: Why are so many Americans eager to destroy our unique representative republic and our super successful capitalist system? Why is Marxism celebrated?
So I began to collect my thoughts about how mass media could effectively hypnotize millions of people at once. Or at least, over a period of time, manipulate their thinking in a certain direction.
My wife had recently witnessed a murder of a fellow worker at her workplace.. A young housewife, who was suffering from spousal abuse, and had just filed a restraining order to keep her abusive spouse from stalking her, was shot to death as she walked from the parking lot to her office.
I researched the story and realized that this mans mental illness is pervasive, and women (sometimes men, too) are murdered every day by their lovers who can't stand losing total control over their body and their mind.
I call it the OJ Syndrome. On a grand scale, we call it Gaslighting.
Combine the effects of extreme information control, coercive psychological manipulation, relentless violence and Progressive indoctrination occurring in our schools, and you have a formula for a culture of self hatred, angry and dangerous behaviors. For me it is like watching one of Hollywood's apocalyptic films: It seems unrealistic, stupid, and overwrought. Yet here we are, watching our major cities descend into third world shitholes.
Our so-called elected government is staffed with mentally ill crossdressers who insist on imposing their bizarre rituals and unhealthy lifestyles on elementary school children! The criminal class has grabbed the steering wheel and is driving our collective school bus into a satanic ditch….They have undergone decades of being taught that the idea of self determination and citizen directed government is selfish and dangerous.
We shouldn't be surprised that millions of our citizens would prefer to live under Marxism…
F'd: For Your Own Good
( May 7, 2022, eBook )
When I woke up on November 9th, 2020 to the news that Donald Trump's overnight lead had mysteriously disappeared, I knew our country was being f'd. Glued to the TV for the next 16 hours I watched the FrankenMedia make the case that all of the last minute votes for brain dead Joe ("If you don't vote for me, you ain't black!") Biden were trickling in because of Covid.
Then Trump held a press conference and stated flatly, "We won this election. By a lot."
In my mind it was obvious that the entire pre-election news cycle was nothing more than gaslighting: Telling the public that any idea that Trump could get reelected was hallucinating. That his vast economic and international peace initiatives were figments of an overactive imagination. That the Pandemic was a fluke of nature that just happened to come along just in time to derail the most successful Presidential term in fifty years. That the world was a much safer place now that adults were back in charge. And that the Democrats would "save our Democracy" from the lunacy of Trump.
They promised to "Build Back Better". That actually meant they would spend us into oblivion, deny us our civil rights, impose draconian social and financial controls, and drive the United States into a new civil war.
When someone tells you they are acting on your behalf, they are protecting you and all of society from "extremists" you should be "extremely" cautious. They are the stranger offering you a ride home after school...
