Tides Turn, Tsunami Warning False


Sponsored by CrisDental The Tide Turns, The Tsunami Warning is a False Alarm



A tide is turning in this country and to that I say it’s about time.

I’ve had a front row seat to the madness over the last several decades as a television news anchor in Oregon.

We got lazy.

We wanted to feel good rather than do right.

Doing good takes thought, takes time and involvement.

Feeling good means you don’t have to do anything but feel.

Ridiculous.


Society became complacent.

Politicians and political parties took advantage of that complacency.

What was wrong became right and right became wrong.

We scratched our heads but slowly became numb to dumb because ridiculous had not been realized…..yet.


I think the reaction our culture had to COVID was the breaking point.

It was our ticket to the land of tyranny and the lack of a good foundation brought out all of America’s weaknesses…..and here we sit.


Many of us who were cautious with our opinions decades ago, no longer care to be silent.

We discovered it doesn’t matter how careful you are, when you step on the cultural tender footed, they bring out the knives and fight to the death.

The sound of silence is dangerous and gives voice to untruths, half-truths (which is just a nice word for lies) and ushers in disaster.

We learned during COVID how nasty the ruling class could be and in their canceling of our voices, we discovered cancelation doesn’t really matter.

That’s where they blew it. Power to control devoured them and we watched, learned and stop caring about what they said or thought.


I can’t believe I’m saying this but I think the reaction to COVID was perhaps the best thing that has happened to this country in a long time.

God has a way of using man’s stupidity to open the eyes of His people and blind those who refuse to see.

I think that’s what’s playing out right now.


I watch as people like Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson and many, many others call out the so-called conventional wisdom.

They have the power to turn the tide and they are doing so with facts, truth, hard questions and calling out the lies.


It’s been tough year for the so-called progressive movement in America.

They will blame the Supreme Court, or Right Wing Radicals and always Donald Trump.

But what they refuse to look at is their part in the untwisting of America.

What they fail to look at or even try to understand is how long some of us have been living with their (to us) crazy ideas and while they believe the world is coming to an end, some of us believe the ship is finally starting to right itself.


For too long those of us who lean middle, a little left of middle or a touch to the right of center, have made excuses or toned down what we believe to try and get along.

No more, getting along often translates into apathy and our country won’t survive with apathetic people.

Compromise is not a bad thing but when one side gives and gives, at some point the far left has to bend as well.

Well she sure is bending now isn’t she?


The tide is turning but there’s no Tsunami coming.

Projections of doom-and-gloom translate into techniques of control and too many of us now recognize them as such.

You pushed too hard and it backfired.

Yes, people are watching as progressivism fails us and those same people are looking for something of a foundation to build on….Something we used to call the truth.


When sides lose, twisting language is the first shot fired back.

So be careful what you listen to and ask yourself what’s really going on here.

Go back and remember all they told us about the pandemic and do a little homework to find the still unanswered questions.

And yes, inconsistencies matter.


As we prepare to celebrate the 4th of July remember what this country is all about…freedom.

Yes, free to live as we choose not as some regressive ideology tries to demand.

Freedom is messy and requires morality and truth.


The tide is turning but you can ignore the tsunami warnings, instead focus on the truth.

“Freedom to live as we choose…” is in danger from the far left and far right.

Rick...apathy got us to this point. The fact more people have come through a system that has convinced them certain ideologies are better than freedom and that questioning and challenging those in charge is bad and following like sheep in the true way. We as a society have always been apathetic until pushed too far too fast and too hard then it pushes back. However, ther number pushing back in beginning to dwindle, and the time it takes to push back is increasing. The longer it tames to push bach the more and stronger the footbold of socialism/communism takes hold. We are at a precipiece in this country...and time is running out.

I was listening to a podcast today and they were talking about folks like you. They said, and I've learned over decades of doing this, you want my sources but can't give any, you tell me to do my research but you sound like a promotional campaign for MSNBC. This is a technique used by a certain group of people to end conversations. There's a funny meme floating around the internet with a donkey and a guy presenting his position on some issue. The donkey doesn't listen just keeps saying...sources, sources, sources and it turns into the donkey just making the noise of a donkey....it's very funny, very real and spot on for the two of you.

I don't have to convince myself and I will not convince you because you are drinking the CNN Koolaid. There is no BS in my comment. Dr. Birx herself said that she, Fauci and others knew early on that the vaccines wouldn't stop the virus but they continues to lie to Trump and to Biden. Maybe you could do a little research besides watching CNN??

When listening to or reading anything, I go back to the Bible and weigh it against God's Words to us. Then, if political, I go to the writings of our Founding Fathers and some of the writings of our patriots and inspirational leaders of history. It's amazing what is revealed when you shine that light on the evil and hollow words of progressivism. - M

Agreed that many Republicans in the 1850’s-60’s wanted to end slavery, many Americans were content to see it contained in the southern states, even Lincoln. True abolitionists were of many parties-Democrats, Republicans and Free Soilers. the civil rights movement was Supported by bi-partisan Coalition.
