Absolute Power-- Part IV. Crimes Against the Children





"..It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions..."

Unknown


      It is difficult for some people to wrap their heads around the concept of the purposeful intention of law enforcement, judges, case workers, prosecutors, even lawyers tasked to protect you of destroying your family for profit. We seek out government to help us. It is tasked Constitutionally to protect us and (at all costs) defend our Liberty. Conversely, there is a large segment of the population that has a different view of government. They seek out the power. They enjoy watching citizens suffer. Dan Bongino coined the term, "There is no power in the word 'Yes'." Government routinely says 'No' in order for you to pay them the privilege of building a shed, to farm, to collect rainwater, to marry, to drive a car. The legal system is no different. The legal system is specifically designed to enhance the revenue of government and to hold you incarcerated until to comply.
      If this was some Asian sex slave trade operating in the states, the media would be all over it and you can bet SWAT raids would be in order very quickly. Yet, this does exist, and nothing is being done about it. Strangely enough DCF has become entangled in the human trafficking business. The adoption process is a multibillion-dollar operation. The process is excruciatingly long with children going to the highest bidder and not necessarily the best family. 
    What few cases of DCF abuse (and I do mean a very few cases) do get prosecuted come only after years of investigation, bankruptcy of the families, children's lives destroyed, and a childhood lost. Usually, the guilty get a slap on the wrist and (in some cases) end up back on the same job.
    Or, in the case of Linda Spears she becomes CEO of a national child welfare organization.

    Despite overwhelming evidence that profiting from child abduction under Child Protective Services exists, the rank and file in the department dismiss any allegations as crazy talk. In fact, any attempt to expose this conspiracy is used against the family as a means to discredit them as further evidence of their 'unfit parents' status. Federal dollars flow to the state courts and local CPS offices for every child put into the system. Bonuses and extra pay get awarded to case workers for each child forced into foster care and or adoption. Money is paid to foster families for children they accept. In many cases there is a warehousing of children with foster families. CPS is the largest managing agent for juvenile incarceration of children held in limbo until cases are decided. 
    Alex Jones from Info-Wars has exposed one incarceration unit where rape parties were a common theme. In California CPS Supervisor Laurie Lee has received hundreds of thousands of dollars in kickbacks for supplying children to adoption services. In Georgia, the exposure of CPS fraud has resulted in the murder of a State Senator and her husband. In Massachusetts DCF loses children all the time in foster care and has no discernible tracking system for the rest. 
    In Santa Barbara County 'On Second Thought' producer William Wagener chases down Laurie Lee of Vandenberg Village. Lee is a CPS Supervisor. The family in question was brought up on false charges by Lee's office and their infant was taken away from them and given to a Tennessee family for adoption. Their child was never seen or heard from again. In the attached Youtube clip the family tells Wagener of their ordeal.                                                                  


    Judge Herman presided over the case and would not allow the McIntyre family to tell their side of the story and was not the least bit interested in protecting the Constitutional rights of this family. Judge Herman and CPS ordered this family to undergo psychological evaluation and drug testing even though neither of the two had any prior drug convictions or suspected usage. He also refused to allow the family a jury trial. A direct violation of the sixth Amendment. Judge Herman has also accepted testimony from Lee without being sworn in and all other testimonies sworn under oath have mysteriously been misplaced in Judge Herman's office.
    The accusation stemmed (allegedly) from the mother being medically prescribed an anti-anxiety medication. Ironically, the same medication CPS orders families to give to their children for ADHD.
     Lee was quoted by the McIntyre family as going off of "feelings, how she feels about a case". The McIntyre's were not allowed to bring up any of the missing sworn testimony, nor any of the unsworn testimony of Laurie Lee, nor to ask questions as to why such testimony is allowed.
    This case is from 2009 and is still unresolved. The where-abouts of their child is unknown.

    Georgia State Senator Nancy Shaefer was a longtime advocate for family rights and in 2007, after four years of investigation, published a report titled "The Corrupt Business of Child Protective Services". In this report and during many public speaking engagements Sen. Shaefer minced no words in her indictment of CPS. She spoke to Alex Jones about her findings.




   
    The Senator exposes how many state facilities that house juveniles arrange rape parties. Alex Jones tells how one such case was exposed by the Texas State Police and the investigator who uncovered it lost his job. 
    As a result, the state of Texas applied for more money to 'solve' the problem, which they received.
    The Senator also claims in her reporting that certain children are targeted because of looks, age, and gender for abduction and adoption. Poor families are especially targeted because the state knows that they cannot afford an attorney. When the state 'appoints' an attorney he/she is usually in on the game. In some states, CPS has a website where photos of children in their custody are displayed for potential adoptive parents to pick from. 
    As Alex Jones said in the link "pure evil.".

    On March 26th, 2010, Senator Nancy Shaefer and her husband were shot dead. The LSM reported it as a murder-suicide. Not one witness could be found to corroborate that claim. In another report filed by William Wagener on the one-year anniversary, Wagener points out that just prior to the murders both Bruce and Nancy had managed to gain private financing for a film documentary of the report she had published.                                                              

       Olga Roche came under investigation by the Massachusetts State House after the death of a child under foster care. For some unknown reason the family that Jeremiah Oliver was placed with was the same family he was placed in DCF care for in the first place.
      But Child Advocate Gail Garinger told reporters outside one of the hearings that "we need to look at CORI on an individual basis."
    I agree. Just not with her assessment of how to do that.

    For instance, Gail claims that someone with a sexual assault charge may be nothing more than " a teenager on the steps of the high school patting another student on the bum.". And, perhaps the state should look at these cases on a more individual level to determine if an actual crime had been committed.
     Someone shoot me now, please!
     We aren't talking about teenagers making out Gail. We are talking about potential pedophiles.

    DCF also missed months of scheduled follow up visits to check on the Oliver case. Jeremiah Oliver was feared dead. Worc. County DA Joe Early would not comment on the investigation and that it was "on going".
    In April of 2014 his body was discovered stuffed in a suitcase on the side of Interstate 190 in the town of Sterling Mass. Feckless Candidate for Governor Charlie Baker as well as spineless State Republicans sheepishly called for Olga Roche's resignation. No one from CPS was ever held criminally responsible.


     We can no longer apply the axiom of these examples being 'isolated incidents', or that ' it doesn't represent the larger majority of hard working, caring social workers'. If this were the case, we would not have Youtube flooded with stories from across the nation of injustice from judges, case workers and police. Organizations that hide children from CPS would not exist. Fathers Against Divorce Discrimination would not be overwhelmed with hits on its website, nor would homeschooling be one of the fastest growing trends in America.

     There is a whole new ballgame at play now with Child Protective Services. The trend towards transgenderism has added a new weapon to the government's arsenal. Children are now removed from your family because you won't let your son wear makeup and you won't let your daughter have breast removal surgery. This new ability will add tens of thousands of children to the database and adoption/trafficking network. Pedophiles are grinning from ear to ear at the chance to foster care a trans child. 
    And the agency does little to make sure the child is placed in a safe environment.
    The hard working, caring social workers are the isolated incident and they do not represent the larger majority.

Absolute Power-- Part III- The Child Catchers





From the official Mass.gov DCF website. 2014.

Mission Statement
"The Department of Children and Families is charged with protecting children from abuse and neglect and strengthening families. There are currently more than 7,000 children in foster care across Massachusetts and more than 40,000 children in all served by the Department."

    I am not sure if this is a typographical error on the part of lagging maintenance of a website or if Commissioner Roche just does not know just how many children are under Massachusetts DCF care. In her testimony published on Jan 23rd, 2014, she opens up with this statement. 

    " Good morning. My name is Olga Roche, Commissioner of the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families. I want to thank Chairs Linsky and Khan, and members of the committees, for inviting me to discuss our agency’s work in the protection of over 100,000 children and youth we serve each year while strengthening families across the Commonwealth."

      Perhaps she meant that 100,000 are served yearly and that the website simply states that only 40,000 are under some form of permanent placement, or supervision of the agency. Arguing the discrepancy is academic and purposeless even on a statistical level. No, what these numbers mean is that 100,000 children fall under the watchful eye of a growing more powerful agency and roughly 40,000 have currently ended up ensnared.
    Let us extrapolate those numbers. If 100,000 are investigated each year that would mean (over ten years) 1 million are data based, recorded and put into a file in a vast system. DCF has been around a long time. Given population growth, economic woe, the purported ever constant rise in drug and alcohol abuse, the sanctuary status of illegals, and general youth delinquency it is quite possible that practically every family in Massachusetts alone has been, is and can expect to be visited by DCF for any number of reasons at some point in time in their lives. As I have stated before the bar is lowered all the time to classify 'at risk' children. It is inevitable these numbers casually bantered about will rise.
    Let's look at another statistic and do some extrapolating here as well.

Priority Population
DCF supports children ages 0 - 18 and 18 - 21 previously involved with DCF. 85% of all children receiving DCF services remain in their home.

    If 100,000 children are investigated each year, then, according to this from the website that would mean over 15,000 a year end up in DCF care instead of remaining in the home. Again, given the commonly known rise of all statistical numbers how did DCF come up with the 2014 number of 40,000?

    In an open letter published just prior to the scandal that unfolded following the death of Jermiah Oliver and the revelation that DCF routinely 'loses' children in their care Commissioner Olga Roche wrote to her colleagues. 

    "Governor Patrick’s $9.2 million budget investment and additional supplemental budget funding will allow the Department to hire more than 175 additional staff to move towards our 15 to 1 caseload goals."

     In addition to the 175 new staff members Roche goes on to talk about promotions of other staff members and the fielding of "hundreds of applications and resume's". It is important to know that this 9.2 million is what Democrats like to call an 'investment'. What that really means is that the current budget has only increased by 9.2 million.
     Great! The growth of government expands ever thus!

The Mission Statement from the official site in 2023.

The Department of Children and Families (DCF) works in partnership with families and communities to keep children safe from abuse and neglect. In most cases, DCF is able to provide supports and services to keep children safe with parents or family members. When necessary, DCF provides foster care or finds new permanent families for children through kinship, guardianship or adoption.


    In addition, DCF now has expanded to be involved in children's lives well into adulthood.

"The Department of Children and Families (DCF) strives to protect children from abuse and neglect and supports young adults, age 18-22, who are transitioning from DCF custody to independent living."

     In September of 2023 Staverne Miller became the new "acting" Commissioner and was appointed under the Healey Administration. She replaced Linda Spears who went on to serve as CEO on a national level with the Child Welfare League of America. Staverne has an impressive resume' and was co-chair of the Racial Equity Workgroup. 
    She is a DEI Warrior.



    According to the link above there are currently 4200 social workers employed by the taxpayers in Massachusetts. Massachusetts has 351 cities and towns. This means there are roughly 12 workers for every town. Some towns barely have 12 cops!
    But the increase of workers since Gov. Patrick's 9.2 million influx and a current state budget of 1.4 billion hasn't slowed the level of incompetence among the staff or how they handle placement of children.



    Following the death of Cassidy Baracka in Lowell the Baker Administration threw MORE money at the problem. The DCF budget increased another 42%, a 21% hiring increase and "..procedures put in place to guide the “review and investigation of reports of abuse or neglect.”

    This does not bring back a dead child.

    Then there are the never-ending stories such as this one.


"DCF Commissioner Linda Spears acknowledged that DCF staffers have been investigated for abuse or neglect of children in their personal lives at a hearing with lawmakers on Tuesday, however, she could not immediately give details on exactly how many of her workers have come under investigation in the past year."

Linda Spears? Didn't she just get a cushy CEO job with a national child welfare organization?

  So, under the watchful eye of Olga Roche children routinely died, were murdered and lost. Under the watchful eye of Linda Spears children died and the staff at DCF were known to abuse their own children. In fact, there is an entire outside agency tasked to handle these particular cases.

"A DCF spokeswoman said the agency contracts with both Solutions for Living and the Center for Human Development to handle potential conflict of interest cases and investigations. Solutions for Living, Inc. collected more than $700,000 from the state last year, while Massachusetts taxpayers doled out more than $57 million to the Center for Human Development in fiscal 2017. The new revelations come after Investigative Reporter Eric Rasmussen went to the State House to question DCF’s top boss about why the agency’s social workers are going years — even decades — without undergoing criminal background checks."

I almost can't wait to see what Staverne Miller has in store for the children and families of Massachusetts!

But Massachusetts isn't alone in failing to follow up, report, track and CORI check their own staff. Let us never forget the work of Nancy Shaefer in Georgia and how she was mysteriously found dead alongside her husband just before filing a state audit in 2008.

Counselors, doctors, lawyers, advocate groups, police, fire, teachers, soccer coaches, school bus drivers, city bus drivers and government staff workers are now 'mandated reporters'. They have been required by law to report 'suspected' child abuse or child neglect. This ramps up the potential for the number of families to be trapped within the system simply because someone else 'suspects' something.
    And, just what constitutes suspicion? There was a time when mere suspicion would be laughed out of the police station let alone the court. In the proper execution of detective work suspicion simply spurs on the investigation until sufficient evidence is obtained and then official charges are filed. In the case of suspected child abuse/neglect all it takes is a simple anonymous tip and the charges are leveled.
     Only afterwards does the investigation begin.

    According to the Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, suspicion is defined as; " Act or fact of suspecting: Imagination or apprehension of something, especially of something wrong or hurtful without proof or on slight evidence."
    The entire act of suspicion is subjective and entirely made up in one's head. Albeit, possibly based on a presumption of witness or experience but none the less, groundless and entirely circumspect. Facts must always rule in any act of accusation, prosecution or the forbearance thereof.
    Unless you are DCF.

    Wikipedia states that child abuse is:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_abuse
    "  Child abuse is the physical, sexual or emotional maltreatment or neglect of a child or children.[1] In the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Department for Children And Families (DCF) define child maltreatment as any act or series of acts of commission or omission by a parent or other caregiver that results in harm, potential for harm, or threat of harm to a child.[2] Child abuse can occur in a child's home, or in the organizations, schools or communities the child interacts with. There are four major categories of child abuse: neglect, physical abuse, psychological or emotional abuse, and sexual abuse....."
    Lets look at Connecticut. According to their official (dot-gov) website: http://www.ct.gov/dcf/cwp/view.asp?a=3483&Q=499860#AppendixA
    " ... has injuries at variance with the history given of them...



Evidence of physical abuse includes:

  • bruises, scratches, lacerations
  • burns, and/or scalds
  • reddening or blistering of the tissue through application of heat by fire, chemical substances, cigarettes, matches, electricity, scalding water, friction, etc.
  • injuries to bone, muscle, cartilage, ligaments:
    fractures, dislocations, sprains, strains, displacements, hematomas, etc.
  • head injuries
  • internal injuries
  • death
  • misuse of medical treatments or therapies
  • malnutrition related to acts of commission or omission by an established caregiver resulting in a child’s malnourished state that can be supported by professional medical opinion
  • deprivation of necessities acts of commission or omission by an established caregiver resulting in physical harm to child.
  • cruel punishment.


  
  In fact.
    We could apply anything and everything that goes with the worry and fear, hope, trepidation, daring of parenthood. 
   Then there are those times when you truly need help. The questions in the emergency room are specifically designed to catch you at your weakest. The parent who is traumatized by the event before them concerning their child.

    So, you become suspect. It is based on the slimmest of evidence, slimmest of witness' and (worst yet) brought into court and on docket for examination. Hell? Did not Roche say that 85% of children stay in the home? You'll be fine.
    You will luck out. Spend money, meet with DSS, they already know the outcome. Even your court appointment lawyer knows.

    After all.

Absolute Power-- Part II. Title V and The Social Security Act

    





"As with all public bureaucracies, it pays in political terms- to hire people and pay large salaries rather than to invest time..." Newt Gingrich, "Renew America" 1995.

    "Since 1965 we have spent $5 trillion on welfare.... Since 1970 the number of children living in poverty has increased by 40 %..." Newt Gingrich, "Renew America" 1995.


   
    We cannot address the problem of Child Welfare Services without taking a look at the history of the agency itself. Today each state has their own Social Services agency since Title V laws were amended in 1958 to require the states to match federal funds in order to reduce the burden on the federal government itself. Title V was first hatched in 1935 as part of the Social Security Act. Before that most child welfare agencies were charitable, or private organizations. The actual 'orphanages' or 'poor farms' of the 19th century were an outgrowth of churches following disasters, plagues, wars, etc. Many orphanages were local which meant a child could (at least) stay within the community they were familiar with. In many cases children were just merged into the care of relatives or family friends. This provided emotional and psychological stability for the child.

      Former writer RF. Duplantier for the America's Future website opens up with this statement;

    "Orphanages filled a void in America for more than a hundred years -- until meddling do-gooders decided that these benevolent institutions were inhumane! "

     World history is replete with the stories of great and bad leaders and everyday citizens who had horrible childhood experiences. Growing up in poverty shouldn't be anyone's best idea of an upbringing but growing up poor does not equate abuse or neglect. The notion of a 'safe' environment is a subjective concept. Social Workers and Counselors, School Teachers and Guardian Ad-Litums all use this textbook mantra of "...Do you feel safe at home?" The question should be more direct. "Are you being abused?" 
    After all, isn't that what you really want to know?
    In point of fact, no it is not what they want to know. The language is tailored to emote a desired response from the one being questioned. A child might not feel safe in his/her home because they live in the ghetto, not because mom is abusive. But Social Services will accuse that mother of abuse and/or neglect based on the statement of a child trying to describe the shitty area they live in.

    The bar gets lower and lower with each new appropriation of funds. The term used now is "at risk" children. This is a football field size general term used to designate virtually every child in America as in need of government intervention. A single mother, a single father, a death of a parent.
    The move towards removing all local, personal, religious and family childcare decisions has followed an execrable pattern of more and more top-down control. By creating the perception that children in large numbers are being mistreated all over America justifies the creation of large agencies to replace and remove individual rights of parents, relatives, churches and children themselves.

    Marvin Olasky writes in the publication; Philanthropy, Culture & Society, and published by the Capital Research Center.

    "Orphanage directors during the second half of the nineteenth century saw their mission as not merely furnishing basic material needs but creating model American citizens. They tried to instill virtues such as thrift, self-reliance, and sobriety, and to create a capacity for hard work; they believed in busy daily routines and strict discipline."

    Were they nuts or something? No wonder Social Services stepped in. Imagine raising scores of children with a sense of independence, thrift and moral virtue? What would be left for the government to do?
    Something had to be done, and fast!

    By 1910 over 100,000 American children were in orphanages. Not all these children were 'parentless'. Some children were there due to financial problems of the family, alcoholism, even displacement due to natural disasters or wartime invasion as in the Civil War. These institutions were a safe place for the children. But the public perception began to change. Much of it caused by yellow journalism and a White House Conference in 1909 and again in 1919. This is where the funding for single mothers, widows, etc. began and parentless children were to be routinely placed in foster care rather than an attempt to place children with other family members or even a kind next door neighbor. The Federal Children's Bureau was created in 1912 "to investigate and report on the status of children and on their common as well as special needs" and on "the welfare of children and child life among all classes of our people."
     By 1935 with Roosevelt's Social Security Act a government instituted Child Welfare Agency was created.

    Interestingly former Speaker of the House and Presidential candidate Newt Gingrich openly proposed the return of orphanages back in his day much to the shock of the Progressive Reformers who destroyed these institutions in the first place. The concept of relinquishing State control is the proverbial 'third rail' to Leftists.  In one of my many interviews with Republican Senatorial Candidate Col. Reid Reasor he outlined the importance of control as the main objective of Leftists and Leftism in general. The more they tear apart private, religious, personal control over people's lives then the simple replacement by government involvement becomes the solution.
    Now, while many parts of Title V within the SSA spawned innovations in prenatal care, standards for hospitals and programs for single mothers the original concept was to provide these innovations at a local level. Communities that created childcare centers, local clinics, after school programs and the like could apply for funding or block grants. But over time and the advocacy of a growing number of self-righteous budding do-gooders fresh from the 1960's colleges with degrees in Sociology and Child Psychology the desire was to serve in a government agency rather than do the heavy lifting in a poor community. Rather than getting your hands dirty at a daycare center in Harlem these college grads decided a cushy office job instead.

    In 1981, Title V became a block grant but retained key features of the original legislation. These amendments established the groundwork for current aspects of the program, such as the needs assessment. However, many critics, including those in Congress, decried the lack of accountability mechanisms and cited initial reductions in funding and decreased federal oversight as weakening programs in some states. Opponents to this new feature of Title V could easily see the slipping away of local control in favor of a Halo Federal approach to children in need.

    For reasons of time and space on the blog I will not go into the myriad of grants and programs under Title V but suffice to say the biggest problem to come out of all of this is 'accountability'. Federal program agents tasked are meant to oversee the state's application of the law. That is all but lost and states now virtually run amuck while sticking their noses into the private lives of citizens. The countryside is awash with horror stories of state agencies removing children from perfectly good homes, embroiling families in lengthy and costly custody battles, securing more control over the educational system to indoctrinate children and creating dossiers on them and the family.

    As the Liberty Movement gains strength this subject should be part of the platform of returning our Republic back to Constitutional Law. If we do not wrestle control of our children away from the prying eyes and ears of government, we will inevitably fall under true totalitarianism where our children are no longer our own but rather the future-shock results as seen in George Orwell's novel "1984" when Winston's neighbor is turned in by his own son for talking in his sleep.
    
One MSNBC anchor has already suggested such a thing.

Absolute Power, Part I- The Child Abuse Industry

    


    As is the tradition of The M&P Conservative Media Network I spend some time reading, researching, collating data and asking people about the various subjects I post here. It is interesting how one must back up facts, cite references and documentation in order to be viewed as credible. You don't cite your sources or provide some context or link the Left goes bananas and suddenly you are labelled as having no idea what you are writing about. Never mind that maybe you lived through the experience you are writing about. Everyone has the anecdotal story of their uncle, brother, friend who went through the same thing and everything turned out peachy.

    What I am to write to you about is an organization that does nothing of the above yet exists and is more powerful and more insidious in our lives than the IRS. This organization does not have to answer to any Senate Select Committee, does not need to follow laws, can openly lie in a special court set up just for them, routinely abducts children, loses children, has been responsible for the death of children and has a wonderful monopoly on the adoption assembly line.
   It is The Department of Social Services.

    The Department of Social Services or The Department of Children and Families or, whatever your state calls it (Liberals love changing names to protect the guilty) is not at all interested in protecting your children or helping your family. It cares absolutely ZERO about fathers, if, at all save a reason to garnish wages and extract money. God forbid a father ask a question of Family Court. Just sign the child support check!
     DCF is designed to break up families and impose a court order where all parties must submit to the rule of the State. DCF makes money from the Feds by artificially inflating 'at risk children' numbers, medicating children, forcing children into foster care and creating a data base of numbers and statistics that ensure the ever-increasing budget of the State's Social Services System.
    For every child filed into the system a cash register goes 'Cha-Ching!"
    The State makes money off of producing statistics of the need of child welfare services.
    Former Social Worker and Author, Mary Pride, in her 1981 book 'The Child Abuse Industry' wrote extensively on this very premise.
    If there isn't a problem? Why fund it?
    So. Let's create the problem. Thus, it can be funded.




    The first thing you must understand is when you are engaged in a Family and Probate court case is that you are guilty. After all, why would the State NOT bring such an action against you, right? Jurist-prudence and our Constitution be damned. The State does not have to prove its case (as in a criminal court). Instead, it is YOU who must comply with their decisions and show the court your obedience to their demands. In extreme cases defendants must somehow try to prove a negative. Essentially you are being accused of child abuse or neglect.
    How does one prove something they are NOT doing?

    The second thing you must understand is that all the agents are aligned. The school principal, child advocate, female police officer and the DCF worker all know each other. They work hand in hand. You can even see them chatting and laughing it up prior to your appearance before a Judge. Ever stand outside a court room during one of these proceedings? 
    I have, many times! Watch, listen, learn. It is a Cabal.
    Even the Court Appointed Lawyer for your case is an agent of the State. Then there is the Guardian Ad-Lightem. They are nebulous individuals charged with watching over you and your family while the hearings and investigations unfold. They have carte-blanche to enter your home, read your mail, check over the home for cleanliness and ask you dozens of questions. They tend to pop in at some of the worst moments of your day. Curiously enough Social workers rarely record interviews electronically. They always 'take notes' on a legal pad.
    And once you and your child are in the 'system' you never leave the database. Even if your case is adjudicated and dismissed that file still exists so that when your child grows up and has children of their own DCF is just one Mandated Reporter away from re-entering that (now grown) child's life to rain doom and ruin on the next generation of families.

    As I stated before; you are guilty. There is no jurist-prudence in Family or Probate Court. The standards are completely made up by the advocates and Judges depending on any particular case. What is fact on your side is nothing more than opinion according to the Court. However, the State (and its agents) can lie, not produce witnesses for your cross examination, yet will use those very witnesses for your prosecution. The Judge can dismiss your request for Motions and in too many cases that is usually standard operating procedure. You are not allowed to face your accuser. The HOT-Line is set up to be anonymous so any one can call in and say you are abusing your child, and the horses are off and running!

     You are Fucked! And it is all Mandated under Law! Great system, isn't it?


 Stay tuned.

Shitty People and Other Stupid Ideas

   Ya' Know? I have finally reached that point in life where I can relate to the infamous words of Capt. Jean Luc Picard of The Enterprise when he said, "I have more years behind me than ahead of me." At 50, It is a sure  bet. I just hope to live long enough to be a pain in my children's asses. I think about the plusses of being older. For instance, I can ogle a young woman and get away with it. Even my wife does not care. I mean, think about it? Like, that 20 something with the bubble butt is going to jump up and run away with the likes of a guy like me! I can call out things as I see them and most people will dismiss me as being 'just old'... Dumb-asses..
    I have also come to discover (and arrive at) a few epiphanies. The first  is that I have met (primarily) alot of shitty people out there in my lifetime. I have met 'freaks and scaries, dikes and fairies' ( Alvin Lee). 99 % of every problem I have ever faced in my life was either the direct result of, or the indirect result of the shitty people who have crossed my path. I reject the axiom of "You should have known better!" Should have known better?  How could I have known better when I had no clue in the first place? Aren't we taught as children to always look for the good in people?
 Screw that!

    I have taught my kids to always be wary of the other person and as a result my boys have made good choices in friends and relationships because they have a set the bar extremely high for themselves. In fact, I would venture to say that the people I have met of character and caliber are the one's I have met in The Liberty Movement. Possibly because they might feel the same as I do about shitty people. I certainly can count several friends along the way who have helped and influenced my life along the way. We have all departed company for the pursuit of our own lives and that is as it should be. I have also made enough of my own mistakes to know that I would enjoy a chance to make some amends to some people. I must also make clear that my own family are probably the only really good friends I will ever have who will see me right to the end.
    I must say, though, the shittiest people I have met have all been associated with law enforcement and or government. I cannot , for the life of me, remember any good encounter with any one from the field of 'government (a-choo!) service' except for two Northborough cops who I will not name. They were good men at the time and I pray they have remained so. Every Judge I ever had to face was a complete dick! Having raised three children I have had the unfortunate experience of a few visits from Social Services. Every one of them should be put on a leaking boat just prior to a typhoon.
    That includes most of the teachers in my life except three. I had one teacher call me stupid as well as telling my mother I was stupid... The town named a school after him... Figures.. I had another teacher who was a dead ringer for the teacher in the Pink Floyd Movie 'The Wall'. My sons lucked out better except for a few turds I couldn't flush. Their Principal, on the other hand, was a complete Leftist stooge and caused me no end of grief. My daughter is experiencing that now at her school and I have already written that blog post three times.
    Where is the random act of violence when you need one?

    There are a few criteria to remain vigilant of in assessing the level of shitty-ness in a person. Oddly enough the things I list will only apply to the shitty people. I am sure we have all met people with the same  descriptions who were perfectly fine people which makes understanding this conundrum ever more difficult.

Money: Most people with money are shitty people. The difference is that nice people with money all earned it the hard way and tend to help others. The shitty people most likely inherited it or were lucky and fell into it. Celebrities tend to fall into this catagory. Legislators who scam the system also fall under this column.

 The Self Righteous: These people really take the cake. They always feel it is their 'responsibility' to get involved in some one else's life and fuck it all up. Religious zealots are prime candidates. 'Concerned Citizen' groups and voting rights activists also win a prize. Virtually any advocate who will look at you and determine you unworthy of being left alone and who will entangle you in every accusation for not following the rules. I am quickly running out of space in my back yard to hide all of those bodies.

Retail: Now, I must be careful here because my wife works retail and I have a long work history there as well. The difference is she and I always do the best we can to provide a service and stand by what we sell and what we provide. But, have you ever noticed the level of customer service today? Does any one actually know HOW to do their job any more? Have you also noticed how everything today is a fight? You have to fight to get the order correct, fight to get something replaced, fight to get re-imbursed. And every one of these shit bags has a rule. You cannot do this or that, you cannot just get your money back, you get a store credit so you are forced to buy more of their shitty products. Warranties are total BS, there is always a catch. Warranties only apply if the perfect lab conditions exist and then the product fails. God forbid we should actually expect something to perform as advertised.  They always tell you to act now and get 20% off today's purchase. Don't worry. Come back next week and they will have an equally shitty promotion to act upon.
    I do understand that we live in a litigious society today and most of the problems have been caused by shitty people sueing over the stupidest things (remember what I said about 99% of all your problems?).

Liars: People get paid to lie. Did you know that? Entire systems are created that prevent you from lying and will result in stiff fines or prison if you do. However, those same systems actually depend on the lies from those in the system in order for the system to exist. Most prosecutors get first place with law enforcement following a very close second. Fellow employees and employers also get a ribbon for runner up. What few nice people I have met in the work force have all been screwed over by the dicks they work with or the dicks who hired them. Any time the shit hits the fan the person pointing the finger at you will lie like a Muslim prayer rug. There have only been a couple times in my life where some A-hole employer got what was coming to them later on.
 I am proud to have played a part.

    Unions, City Workers, DMV, Inspection Officials, Slum Landlords and Bank Executives all get special commendations as well. Feel free to add at will. But by far, Liberals in general are the most insidious offenders because they can be found in every facet of society screwing the whole gear works up.

    Then there is the level of general stupidity. This, I can say, is at an all time high. We usually give bad grades to failing examples. However, I can safely say this example is at an all time historical high and shows strong signs of future growth in the industry. Few adults today posses the level of intelligence and deciphering as a fifth grader did in the early 1800's. Cognitive reasoning is nonexistent in most young people and an alarming number of adults. No one knows where they are going unless they have a GPS. No one under age 30 can read a map. Kids cannot spell worth a damn but can text like no tomorrow.. Have you ever read a 15 year old's text? Can you read it? Most of it is script and other forms of bad spelling.
    Illegals are the worst. Think about it for a second. If you are an immigrant, you most likely have an education or ran a business or were employed at a position of prestige. You filed paperwork, saved money in a bank, planned for the actual act of emmigating, got your affairs in order and made that long arduous journey to citizenship. You are more than likely a person of some intellectual semblence. If you are an Illegal though you more than likely posses none of the criteria I just alluded to. You are possibly one of the dumbest people on Earth to actually think paying some guy $5000 to be stuffed in a van with 30 other idiots and driven to the middle of no where given a back pack full of weed and told to run North was a good idea. I have met these people, worked with them. They operate on the most basic of limbic activity.
    And the people who think these idiots are just here for a better life are equally as idiotic. You don't see them itching to have the same experience do you?

    Because I live in the inner city I have a daily front row seat to the level of intellihencia displayed before me. The loud phone talker on the bus. Yes, I just dying to hear about your latest fight with your baby daddy. The home-boy rapping out loud at the library who is then offended when the librarian asks (or, should I say 'axes') them to be quiet. And what the hell is the obsession with black people and hair extensions? Then, there is the completely  disconnected ditz who blithely tosses their trash out their car window while sporting an Obama 2008 bumpersticker.
    Reality television celebrities and the hordes of the American braindead who follow them are a phenomenon that will keep neurologists confused for decades to come. Only in America could the average dunce know more about Kim Kardashian than they do about how to boil water. Ask a teenager to cook dinner for the family and the three things they will look for is a box from the store and a microwave or the phone to call Dominoes.

   Ahhh... Maybe it is just my age. Maybe I am lamenting the same lament lamented by elders since old men have begun lamenting. I know there are many who work very hard to improve their lives and watch over each other. After all, we are all just trying to get to Friday and survive the week. I think about families with sick children and who would give their souls to watch their dying children grow up to be silly and stupid. I am blessed in that I have intelligent kids who will just get more intelligent as they get older themselves.. God willing.
    What worries me is that they have a life ahead of them where the potential for meeting shitty people and encountering stupid ideas is a fore gone conclusion. They will have to learn to navigate those rough waters with few charts. Maybe this is the departure I have made from what my mother taught me (and it is sad) because she always taught me to look for the good in people and I have taught my children to be wary of people. My mother did what she did with the best of intentions and hope. I do what I do with those same intentions. I just pray I am not remembered as a shitty person with stupid ideas...

.... And That Is The Diatribe....

The Meat And Potatoes Show Makes No Apologies

    I was recently blocked from Facebook for over a week ending today Saturday the 22nd of February. I was blocked for an allegedly offensive statement I made on one of the group pages I belong to. The statement was racially charged but was in no way racist. Racism is a made up word anyways and I do not subscribe to political fantasy intended to pigeon hole an individual based solely on some one else's interpretation of what they find offensive.
    I have always maintained that I will always call out situations, people, ethnicities, religions and events as they really are, as they really happen. I will not placate with an imagined sensability foistered upon me by media or society in general. I do not care what any one thinks when they imagine in their empty heads that some how what I am saying is racist. If I see evil vile behavior perpetrated by evil vile people I am going to call what it is; evil and vile and I will associate the same words with the people involved as with the actions displayed by such people. Their actions remove any and all rights to be spoken of 'nicely'. However, to assume I think this way of all people from any walk of life is rediculous.
    I also reject, as patently absurd, the notion that my statements made on pages where I have been invited to speak on are some how associated with the guests who appear on my internet show.  To equate a guest on the MeatAndPotatoes2012 Youtube page with my association with groups I choose to be affiliated with is narrow minded and is symptomatic of the general devolvement of our national level of intelligence. My interviews are conducted in a professional manner and are outside my personal feelings. Especially feelings concerning events unrelated to the guest or the interview of that guest.
    The Meat And Potatoes Show has a strict 'no apologies' policy in regards such as this. We do not 'retract' statements because some one's feelings were hurt. That is their problem not mine. If I make a mistake or I am factually incorrect I will make the appropriate adjustment. I also heavily police my sites for any one who is openly anti Liberty, anti-Semetic, anti-gay or openly calling for violence against ethnicities simply because of the ethnicity.
    Well over 80 people have left my page as a result of this controversy. Good. They can go. M&P2012 has always skirted the edge and will continue to do so. I have not witheld any of this information from my members or my guests. I have the highest regards for those who continue to support my work and will continue to provide the content worthy of their inclusion.
    We are not a politically correct media outlet and we are a 'no apologies' media outlet. Thank you for reading this.

A Most Horrible Monster Under The Bed--Part III. Epilogue


  


  " To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn around the powers of Congress is to take possession of a boundless field of power, no longer susceptible of any definition."

 Sect. of State Thomas Jefferson, 1790 in a letter to Madison concerning the creation of a central bank (Hamilton) that would exist outside the limits of The US Constitution or Congress.

"Republicans may not be the answer to all your problems but Democrats are definitely the cause of all your problems."
Dan Bongino, Radio Host. Former Secret Service.
   

    We have, not only, entered this 'boundless field.' We have been in it for quite some time now. It is commonplace today and we judge outcome based on a perversion of interpretation of the original construction of law. As Jefferson stated we are now under no rudder or steering guided by the tenets of our Constitution, or the specific rules set forth by the Constitution of our Congress. There is no                'susceptible definition'.
    In John Gibson's (Former FOX News anchor) book, "Swiftboating America" John sums up the Florida debacle.
   "The recount, undertaken at Gore's request, was confined to Democrat counties. This put Bush at an obvious disadvantage. The Constitution of the United States required each state to name its electors no later than Dec 12th."

    News footage followed. TV Helicopters shadowed Brinks trucks carrying ballots. The Florida SJC was in the spotlight but, it was Gore who took the issue to the Florida SJC in the first place and the court initially concurred with Gore and not Bush. That the Republican Sect. of State in Florida sided with Bush is another (and very typical) lie perpetrated by the Liberal Media.
    John Gibson goes on to write,
    " SCOTUS stated that, The Florida SC violated the Fourteenth Amendment, which assures equal protection under the law."

     It was all well and good for Al to only want Democrat districts recounted but that violated the rights of all the other districts to be recounted as well.
    John goes on to write.
    "The court (SCOTUS) said Florida couldn't declare legal a situation in which officials could recount votes one way at one table and across the room at a different table allow the use of different rules."

    This is what was going on! This is what actually happened! But the LSM went on the media hunt and (as we all heard ad-nauseum) Bush stole the election. Had the Gore campaign not demand such a narrow interpretation of the recount in Florida it is quite conceivable Gore would have won in 2000. The Supreme Court only decided a halt to the recount due (primarily) to the Democrat's shenanigans. Not because of a Republican majority on that Court and certainly not because the Florida Secretary of State was a Republican but (as we later learned anyways) as all recounts were tabulated Bush would have won the recount even if SCOTUS had not called a halt.
    The Democrats shot themselves in the foot. The Gore campaign bitched such a blue streak that all they did was draw attention to themselves and the shady dealings of the Florida DNC. And the Democrats are STILL shooting themselves in the foot. The Colorado Supreme Court ruled erroneously to bar President Trump from the 2024 election and then backtracked when the avalanche of media and public scrutiny crashed on their heads. Then (stunningly) the Secretary of State in Maine pulled the same bullshit and backtracked herself within hours.

    And this brings me to my summation. Voter fraud is a national trend perpetrated by Democrats. The 2020 election season was so blatant it is amazing no one has actually done anything about it. The fact that the election stood is testimony to the fraud and corruption of the entire system. What far and few attempts by local Republicans to tilt a vote is nothing more than just that, Far and few. This also brings me back to my opening statement. The RNC is on its own course of self-destruction. They play defense only and tend to eat their own. Democrats ALWAYS ban together regardless of opinions during the Primary season. Democrats are well armed politically and well on the offensive politically. Republicans choose to be more conciliatory. They keep trying to rebrand themselves with this self-deprecation. They play along to get along never realizing the Democrats will ALWAYS hate them. 
    Republicans run campaigns but Democrats OWN elections.

    If you do a Google or Bing search of 2020 Election Fraud you have to scroll through a couple pages of Leftist articles that swear there was NO voter fraud. But once you get to page 3-5 you begin to see what electronic media wants to throttle down (and for good reason).







    First of all, Conservatives must become an integral part of the election process on a mass scale. We need to create our own NOI/CTCL.  The Democrats are doing this already and hide behind the banner of 'equality' while doing everything in their part to stifle it from anyone who is not a Democrat! The Left will not blink an eye at baton wielding Black Panthers standing outside a polling station but a poll worker checking ID's is a racist (and will most likely be asked to leave by a police officer). So, we must also be there to ensure a fair and free election. No one should be asked to leave the ballots unattended. 

     Second, Conservatives must also get involved in the process from the beginning. Get onto an election board and point out past mistakes and do not stop pointing them out. Join anything connected with local government. Even if you are asked to leave, keep speaking. Ask a question at your next town meeting (be prepared to be escorted out by a cop). Then, write your local blogs and papers and social networks a complete dossier on what you have witnessed. Post everything, everywhere!!

    Third, join a Liberty movement in your area. If you cannot donate (time, protesting, money) then plant a campaign sign on your lawn. Challenge your kid's school- because they are now the indoctrination centers for the Progressive message to the next generation. Say "NO!" to any government official who knocks on your door to challenge you and back your arguments up with facts and history.

    Fourth, Conservatives must interject our Constitutionalist ideology upon America. Strict interpretation to the 'construction' as Jefferson has said. The Left has been using the Constitution to undo the Constitution since Wilson with Progressivism. Look where we are now?
     It may take us just as long.

    And Fifth, never surrender your resolve. Even in the face of defeat and threat of Liberty never surrender your resolve. There is no negotiation. Leftism and the model of Alinsky demands your surrender because the Left claims any opposition is extremism. Well then, be the extremist.

    Stop the damned infighting! The enemy is out there!

     Did you know that, in the winter of 1777 at Valley Forge, Washington almost lost his whole army? Some of his Commanders demanded he shoot the deserters. Washington said 'no'. Did you also know that not one of those men, were 'impressed' or 'conscripted'. How could Washington shoot men who stood up on their own accord?  They all volunteered. So, as they slipped away in the cold of that winter, Washington understood. There were many letters to Martha where our great General wished it for himself.
    Then came Von Schtubing. He claimed to be a military commander. He was not. He claimed to be well heeled in European Society. He was not. Who the hell was this guy? Why the fuck did he show up in the middle of New Jersey in the dead of winter and proceed to lie his way into training our militia?
     I wouldn't show up in Jersey for anything! And neither would you!
    He showed up because he believed in freedom. Von Schtubing was also no longer wanted in his former circle of elites. He saw an opportunity and he took it. Everything he ever did, he did himself.  He was almost like a virus. He showed up out of nowhere and began to become part of his host. And so should we. Be Von Schtubing and just show up to offer your service to this Republic. 
    Be that more horrible monster under the bed.
