The "Polk" County TX Candidate Calling the "Kettle" Black

Written by George Ackerson on . Posted in Politics

In the political fiasco of Texas Judicial District 411 Republican Primary race in the three-county districts of Polk, San Jacinto and Trinity, Candidate John Wells filed a Judicial Complaint against his opponent, sitting Judge Kaycee Jones.

Knowing that these investigations can take many months to resolve, Mr. Wells has forgotten the basic tenant of law, “Innocent until proven guilty.” By filing the complaint in a contested political environment, he silenced his opponent as it would be a violation of the Judicial Canons for Judge Jones to respond publicly. Yet, it could be argued that Mr. Wells also violated the Judicial Canon by making a public statement to the news media as a way to bias voters in his favor.

It makes one ponder how such a travesty of justice could occur when Wells failed to protect his client by requesting a recusal from Judge Travis Kitchens yet made his case of the complaint filed against Jones to the media networks. Judge Travis Kitchens recused himself from the case after Mr. Wells failed to do so. In other words, Wells felt a compelling need to file a complaint and share it with the public but didn’t feel compelled enough to protect his client.

There’s yet another side to this story that remains untold.

Wells also has a Texas State Bar grievance that is active against him at this time. The grievance was filed after the discovery in the Wells vs. Von Schmidt case makes it public record. On page 41 of the discovery, Wells and Polk County Criminal District Attorney had a text message exchange in which they discussed seeking criminal charges against Wells former opponents, Shelly Sitton and current Judge Travis Kitchens. Mrs. Sitton had lost her bid in the 2018 258th race leaving Wells and Kitchens to battle it out in a Republican Primary run-off. Mr. Wells and Mr. Lee Hon were willing to seek criminal charges against both in order to assist Mr. Wells failed campaign.

The Wells vs. Von Schmidt case is another incident Wells has failed to inform the public of. Following the loss of his campaign in 2018, Wells filed a lawsuit against Charles Von Schmidt for placing a political ad against him in the run-off. The case is currently being appealed. Regardless, this case is one to watch. Wells attempt to silence a detractor has over-reaching ramifications for the 1stamendment rights of all private citizens.

Dirty tactics have always been used in politics, but what we see here with Mr. Wells and his political cronies is a willingness to abuse the power of their offices, silence free speech and have a blatant disregard for truth and justice.

A Mid-Term Prayer...

Written by David DiCrescenzo on . Posted in Politics

I was having a discussion with a friend the other evening who was gracious enough to invite me to his home to study The Word with him and his family.  Tom is a very good and very intelligent guy, and as a solid “C-4”, (Christian, Conservative, Compassionate, Capitalist); is the sort of individual I like associating with.  Anyway, we were discussing the pros and cons of early voting, and that I choose to vote on Election Day, and also how each of us would be voting. 

Among other things, I came away from the conversation with a modified point of view on something.  Normally, I don’t believe in voting “party” just because and, like most Patriots, I take the casting of a vote very seriously.  I reflect upon and consider the countless men and women who sacrificed everything so that we can vote and choose our leaders, and I won’t dishonor them by taking this lightly. 

As a C-4, most of my choices are no brainers, but there is one vote that leaves me cold as my first choice didn’t run and my second choice didn’t win, and I remain very disappointed in the only choice left to me.  I will NEVER vote for a democrat, because while I know the Republicans are far from perfect, I firmly believe that most democrats, (and certainly their leadership) are insane and hell bent on destroying our nation at every level.  I even considered leaving that particular race blank; however, the only thing that I find more gut wrenching than voting for someone I don’t want to see in office is to see my vote either wasted completely or imagining that an unscrupulous poll worker or SOE staffer would complete that vote for me.

All that to say, every vote counts and that I will put my conscience to the side this one time and take one for the RED team and vote the party because We the People, We the Red Tidal Wave MUST do everything in our power to support President Donald J. Trump and turn every local, county, state, and federal seat RED.  If any of my readers find themselves in a similar conscientious position, I urge you to do the same as me; at least this one time, because we must turn out in over-whelming numbers to over-come every trick of the cheating left, to marginalize every voting place which is blocked by armed thugs, and make a statement that the “silent majority” is silent no more and we are taking back our country.

We must all continue to work like it’s all up to us as individuals and pray like it’s all up to Him.  In that light, I will close this by offering a corporate prayer for our election, our leaders, those running for the RED team for the first time, our nation, and for President Donald J. Trump.

Father in Heaven, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; Creator of the heavens and earth, we your servants in this nation that you have blessed us with humble ourselves to you in one of the most trying and pivotal times in our history and ask for your Hand in this election.  Father, our enemies are attempting to bring us down as never before; they have infiltrated us at every level of society, they have called right wrong and wrong right, they have attempted to cast you out of the public eye and are even chipping away at eliminating the very mention of you in private.

They are causing civil unrest, acts of violence, and every sort of deceit imaginable.  Men and women who are empowered by the enemy of mankind are rising up against your children and taking us to task simply because we are your children. 
Father, in 2016 you gave us a great leader who honors you and honors your children, and our enemies hate him as they hate no other, and he needs your help and protection.  Father, I believe as many others do that you placed him in leadership as a reprieve and a chance for us to repent and turn back to you.  Father, please send your Angels to protect him and his family, our Vice President and his family, and all of those that President Trump has placed in leadership roles.  Father, let the right men and women be elected who will support this president; protect our courts and let them continue to be filled with men and women who honor you and who will uphold the Constitution which you inspired our Founders to write based upon your Word.  Father, let those seated on our highest court overturn the ruling which has allowed the murder of millions of your unborn babies on the altar of convenience.

Father, we are broken and we can only fix ourselves with your guidance, mercy and grace, so I ask you and I pray that you would pave the way for our continued correction by allowing good men and women to be seated around the nation and help our president fulfill his destiny.

There is so much more, but Father, I just lift up this simple prayer for this nation and ask for your continued blessing over the United States of America. 
   
Father, I know that not everyone who reads this shares my faith in your Son, but I ask that you hear this plea from your humble servants, presented to you in the matchless name above all names, your Son, Jesus the Christ…

2018 Mid-Terms, Do Or Die...

Written by David DiCrescenzo on . Posted in Politics

The Mid-Terms are upon us once again and it seems like just yesterday that the left started a cry-fest that has continued to this day and has been covered and encouraged by the media and their puppet masters in the “deep state.”  To listen to them, one might think that most people despise our president and those who have been running on an “anti-Trump” platform have already won.

However, just like in 2016, they are wrong; dead wrong, and I predict that we will once again be seeing “best of” collages of the left imploding and drowning in a RED TIDAL WAVE on Election Night. 

It isn’t just some sort of wishful thinking on my part either; like many, I have my ear to the ground and I pay attention to what people are saying, and I pay attention to the throngs of cheering people at Trump Rallies and especially those who can’t get in and choose to stand outside to show the world that this man has an audience of Patriots who love and respect him and stand ready, willing, and able to whatever they have to do to support and defend the greatest president since George Washington.

My friends, let me simplify this for you, the left thinks you and I, and anyone who doesn’t agree with their destructive agenda are some sort of knuckle dragging sub-humans.  They want to control you, and indoctrinate your children to their way of thinking to the point that our children actually side with them.  If you somehow think that isn’t possible; look around, see how many kids who grow up in conservative homes come back from grade school starting to believe the liberal mush they are fed.  By the time they do go to college, they have been softened to the point that they go full leftist loon, and sound like the “professors” who have brainwashed them.

This is the mid-term of mid-terms; this is the chance to show the left that 2016 was just for openers; that we don’t just like, but love what President Trump is doing.  If we do what I know we’re going to do, which is to prove the left wrong and drown them in red, we will give this POTUS the help he needs to complete his mission and begin his second term fully able to make good on every campaign promise, including locking up many from the previous administration and even maybe #44 himself.  On the other hand, and this is so important, if we do not turn out in vast numbers wearing red, the rest of his first term will be spent stamping out the attempts of the left to besmirch and impeach him; making the possibility of a second term vastly more challenging.

It is up to us; we must turn out in overwhelming numbers and vote sufficiently even to beat any and all cheating committed by the left.

I have to be honest about something that has been nagging me though.  I’m not worried about We the People getting out to vote and I’m not even thinking we will lose; however, I am very concerned about those in the GOP who despise this president that they cannot control, because they have been and will continue to undermine him at every turn.  That hasn’t stopped him, but it also hasn’t helped him.

Let me give you a case in point about that.  Where I live in Florida, there is a race for governor that has the attention of the nation and much of the world. 

On the democrat side, there is a failed mayor of the capitol who against all odds made it onto the ticket while under FBI investigation.  That man is a socialist, who stands against everything We the People hold dear.  To name just a few of the issues he supports; open borders, sanctuary cities and states, he is solidly anti-2A, he would raise corporate taxes and impose a state income tax, he is anti-police and law enforcement, he is anti-Israel, he openly admits that he has taken money from and has a 15 year relationship with george soros, he embraces people like linda sarsour and louis farrakhan, and the list goes on.  And oh yeah, he despises President Trump and has rallied against him.

Compare that with his opponent; a man who, while he may not be the very best choice of the available Republicans, he does indeed support the president, a fact that has many of the “Ivory Tower” Republicans with their evil looking white cats, not very happy with him because while they will put on their game faces in support of POTUS, they are doing whatever they can to undermine him.  Naturally, that last comment will get me a lot of emails and phone calls, but it is true.  If it isn’t true, how come they made him select a known Trump basher as a running mate and had “little jebbie” introduce him at a recent event in Miami..?!  In case you forgot, “little jebbie” hates POTUS, almost as much as “marco” does; and make no mistake, neither of them wants to help any candidate who does support him, even if it means seeing us tank under a socialist.  There has also been an effort to suppress his advertising presence in many areas of the state 

Regardless, We the People cannot allow Ron DeSantis to lose this election; and we cannot allow the left to regain control across the nation either.

It’s up to us Patriots.  We vote RED or we are DEAD…!   

Politicians and Plane Wrecks, Little Difference…

Written by David DiCrescenzo on . Posted in Politics

Unless you were from Chicago or were politically astute at the time, if you got polled on a street anytime from 2006 or prior and had been asked who Barack H. Obama was, you would have probably shrugged your shoulders and said, “I’ve never heard of him.”  And you’d have been in the majority as few people outside of Chicago had.

Then suddenly, seemingly out of nowhere, he was center stage with a name that sounded like one of the terrorists who flew into the WTC only a few years before, and he was the darling of the left. 

It didn’t matter that his records were sealed and nobody really knew where he came from.  It didn’t matter that just about all of his friends like Reverend Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, Tony Rezko, Al Sharpton, Rahm Emmanuel, and lots of others were all miscreants of one stripe or another.  It didn’t matter that regardless of where he was actually born, the circumstances surrounding his birth were and remain questionable at best, (not to mention the sticky little issue of that Connecticut SSN). 

No one seemed to mind that his father of record, Lolo Soetero was certainly not a US citizen; nor did it matter that Frank Marshall Davis, his likely real father given his mother’s known relationship with that individual and little Barry’s uncanny resemblance to him, was just a tad subversive and that he was a major influence in the life of the then candidate.  No one seemed to care that if he had chosen to apply for a menial job in the WH that he would never have passed security screening simply because of the long list of cretins he was associated with.  It was okay that he may have received a scholarship as a foreign student, and there were so many anomalies in his birth and college records, they just had to be made up by the vast right wing conspiracy or something like that.  The photos that emerged of him wearing Muslim garb and his referral to the Muslim “call to prayer” as the most beautiful sound in the world was okay as well; and the books he’d written made his anti-American ideology as clear as a bell.

All that really mattered was that he was young, vibrant, extremely liberal, and most importantly, he at least looked black and the left so wanted to break through that glass ceiling, breaking a few rules and warping the truth to get him in seemed justified; even if it meant tossing “the queen bee” to the side of the road. 

I have to tell you, I know a number of commercial airplane pilots.  The training they go through is constant and intense; they know every piece of equipment, every dial, every gauge, and every switch in the cockpit and what they all do, and they know how to detect the early warning signs and what to do about them.  Few pilots would disagree that when they have even a singular warning alarm go off, they take notice and action and depending upon the severity, they communicate to ground control and do what they can do to land the plane as soon and as safely as possible. 

In the case of the airplane I’ll call “America Flight #44,” every bell and whistle was going off loud and clear before the plane took off; once airborne, there was a lot of vibration, they lost hydraulics, the cabin pressure started dropping, and a computerized voice warning “pull up, pull up” could be heard throughout the cockpit.  But the pilots; in this case the media and the left, decided that it was all nothing more than a little turbulence from the “right” side of the plane, and everything would be just fine.

Well, don’t you know that it didn’t take “ground control,” that is We the People, very long to figure out that the plane was in fact in real trouble.  The controls were all failing, and the crew, oh my, the crew was just as bad as the plane itself.  Many of them were loyal to foreign controlled airlines, didn’t care about the “flight rules,” and couldn’t care less about our “ground control.”  The best that we could hope for was a controlled crash, and we finally got it, eight long, scary years later.

While even today, when a lot of the flames are still burning from that disaster, there is another, until last week mostly unheard of “airplane” who has suddenly emerged on the scene. The troubled mayor of Tallahassee, who has virtually no support from any others on the commission, somehow won the Democrat primary for governor of Florida.  The similarities between him and the aforementioned wreck above are many.

This new upstart is a young, radical black man with the same if not worse ideology as his forbearer.  The real difference is that this new guy, who enters the scene with lots of his own baggage, including being under investigation by the FBI, (questionable that they may now be), is not hiding the fact that he is 100% pro-abortion, pro-gay everything, anti-gun, a socialist, (liberal speak for communist) and stands against everything American patriots support.

This guy may not be running for the Senate, but this election has national ramifications as he is vying for the very important and high profile Governor’s Mansion in Florida; and make no mistake, should he win, he would very likely throw his hat in the all too welcoming ring for the Democrat presidential nomination very soon after taking office.

He is supported by socialist Bernie Sanders, as well as some other rising socialist “stars” around the country; therefore, most of the 800K in Florida who “felt the Bern” in 2016 will likely vote for this “new burn,” as will the vast majority of the roughly 2.3M Democrats who didn’t “feel the Bern” but haven’t done the #walkaway thing yet either.  Then there are maybe too many NPAs who may buy into the anti-Trump rhetoric and also turn out for him.  All that would be needed to put a bow on that package is to sprinkle on some of the “non-existent” voter fraud that Florida is so infamous for, and this guy becomes a real threat.

I might add, a threat that MUST be stopped and one the Republican Party and candidate cannot afford to underestimate…!   

A Candidate And Her Enemies...

Written by David DiCrescenzo on . Posted in Politics

Belinda Keiser is doing well, and I can prove it.  Before I sat down with her, I learned that she has made lots of friends, and she has also made some potent enemies; the kind of enemies that spew lots of half-truths and flat out lies.  As Sir Winston Churchill said, “You have enemies?  Good.  That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life.”  Good job Belinda.

There are mailers claiming she’s weak on immigration, and that she doesn’t live in the 25th District where she's running, that she owns property in Broward County, and all sorts of things to paint her in a bad light.  I imagine that if I were running against her and didn’t really have anything going for me, I’d do some of the same stuff.  I’d probably dig up anything that people might believe and that sounds plausible, because even if it is all nonsense, it’s out there and all the retractions and apologies in the world can’t change that people heard and believe the nonsense.

So what to do in the face of all that…?!  She could spend time and resources going after the perpetrator(s) of such nonsense; but she isn’t wasting a moment on it.  Instead, she is getting out there and meeting with the people in the district, talking about what’s important to them and how she plans on addressing their concerns.  She explains her qualifications and successes; how while she has lived in other areas, her business interests, (not the least of which is a major and growing University) have her firmly rooted in the district.  She owned a property there where she was a caretaker for her father.

They spit out the very real fact that she once ran for office as a Democrat but became a Republican.  Maybe I’m the only one who bothered to ask her why; however, her answer is simple and straight forward enough.  Raised in the north of Florida where the borders to our northern neighbors are as fuzzy as a Georgia Peach, she was what was once referred to as a “Dixie-Crat”  Those were Democrats who actually loved America and what she stands for; the type who understood what the Founders had in mind.  The type of right thinking Democrats who were around before the entire party got hijacked by a lunatic fringe, left wing, anti-American ideology.

So yeah, she was #walkaway before it was cool.  Make no mistake, she didn’t leave the party, the party left her and countless others.

If you want to learn the truth about Belinda, don’t listen to the nonsense, listen to what she says, visit her website, stop by the Port St. Lucie Civic Center this Friday, 8/17/18 from 5:00 – 7:30. 

But do your own research and get educated; don’t believe the “fake news.”  #MAGA
