Hello, this is Bob Barney, I have a question that bothers me and wonder if it bothers you, does it seem to you that anyone in the press whether they are conservative or liberal just do not seem to have a grasp on reality? I ask because that is how it seems to me.

I was just listening to John Fredericks who is a very conservative man, someone I agree with often and I did this morning in his show on RAV TV, he supposedly is like myself, alike as in an election denier, I do not believe… btw…. that anyone who researches the matter, historically, factually, and with video documentation, can absolutely disprove that the 24 election was stolen… and John agrees with that or at least he did in the past. But today he was talking about the need to do early voting.

Why do we have to vote early?

Why not on election day?? Then he went on to say, it is because the democrats beat us in early voting, that that is why we lost Arizona and Pennsylvania. Listening to this, I am thinking to myself, wait a minute, if you say the election was stolen from the perspective absentee ballots that were absolutely fake, made up, fiat, and that they stuffed ten thousand ballots in a box at a time plus with videos to prove such a thing, how does it help us overcome election fraud to do early voting??

It seems if you vote early then the democrats will then know who voted early and how many voted early! They will know how many democrats and republicans voted early!

Let’s say for example…let me make up a number…there are a 110 thousand republicans that vote early in Arizona before election day and there are 3 million voters. One million are republicans and so they know that ten percent of the republicans voted early. That means that they now know there are 100 thousand votes for the Republicans. Which means they know that only 900 thousand can show up on election day. THEY KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE LOOKING FOR! So, they keep the election day numbers down as much as possible and they know they have to stuff 100 thousand fake ballots. So, you are actually giving them a number to shoot for…to CHEAT FOR. Now, unless the republicans vote early, and their campaign includes stuffing ballot boxes with fake votes too just like the democrats…what do you think is going to happen? And the scenario I just gave you is more realistic. You know the old adage, which is that of a democrat, is to always vote early on election day and often throughout the day.

You know there is history of stolen elections, to be honest, I think if you do research and I know this for a fact, I am history major and poli sci major, I have enough credits to be both history and poli sci and English even though I do not have great English, as you can tell, if you look at the 1960 election for example, Nixon won that election, it was squeaker, he barely won it, but there is plenty of evidence in this story that mayor daily from Chicago drove around in his station wagon with his radio phone as back then they didn’t have cell phones…they had radio phones in cars and he drove around with who knows how many fake ballots in their station wagon and he kept calling the Kennedy election headquarters asking how many votes do you need to win Illinois, and they finally said because they were losing that night… they said they needed x amt of votes and low and behold they were dropped off with another 10 or 25 thousand for safety measures.

JFK won by a squeaker.

The next morning, the Nixon campaign met to see were they going to contest the election and many people wanted to like Al Gore did in 2000, took the dem to do it not the republican by the way, and after much discussion, Nixon decided it would be bad for the country! Isn’t that a shocker? That Nixon worried more about the country then Al Gore did. Everyone has bad ideas and notions about who Nixon was, but he did love this country.

I am going on a tangent here, he also said, and this is pretty funny, let’s face it guys, Kennedy stole it fair and square. He took a look and came back and won the presidency and then again in a landslide and the media was able to remove him quite adequately in 1974 through a fake Watergate scandal, it was as fake as what they are doing to Donald Trump today. When the deep state goes after you by gosh you are in trouble, and they went after Nixon. They did it to Ronald Reagan too and now to Donald Trump this very today.

So, in 2020, if we have 20 million extra votes and that is what I believe, Biden did not get 81 mil he was lucky to get 60, so if you are going to vote early and not only election day, but I do also not understand the logic of how that is going to help Donald Trump win the presidency if here are fake votes coming in. Unless the republicans plan to do the same thing…but I am telling you, if the republicans plan on doing the same things, the democrats fight dirty, republicans do not, they will have every single person caught and put in jail for the rest of their life with no lawyers, and if you don’t think this will happen in America, look at the people who protested on Jan 6, it was not an insurrection it was a protest, sometimes an out of hand protest, no different than the Palestinian protest that happened in the rotunda of the Capitol last week that was not called an insurrection. 300 people were arrested at the rotunda, and I guarantee you, all of them are out on bond and have a lawyer unlike the Jan 6 people but the idea that the media both left and right, to me, just seem to be out of touch with the everyday Americans out there. Do other people think the same? You listen to the people in the press, and they do not seem to have any clue, on what the average American goes through every day or what they think or even what they do. They have no clue why they vote, why they don’t vote.

I went to school as I told you in the university of CT for poli sci. I know the subject pretty well, the CT republicans sent me to this advanced school after I graduated to Campaign management college at Wesleyan and I got a degree for that and I was going to at one time in my life, planning on being mgrs. for candidates and I didn’t want to be the empty suit, which is what we called them, the candidates were just pretty boys the age of the candidate who could write his own speeches, ending with Ronald Reagan and t what i learned in those courses, was that electioneering is pretty scientific. and the majority of Americans basically do not vote. and there is as reason why. and believe it or not, your politicians hold office do not want too many people to vote, they only want their people to vote and they do everything in their power that other people do not vote for their opponent and don’t show up, with negative ads and all sorts of tactics, but the idea that we have more than 65 perc of registered voters voting, is pretty normal. 2020 I think we had around 92 percent with impossible, but even the registered voters are not how many people could vote if they registered. we have 350 million Americans, there are probably, 150 million or maybe more, 180 million people that could vote but 120 to 150 mil registered to vote. So many Americans never vote, never register to vote, never intend to vote and do not believe in voting because they have lost confidence in this government, in its leaders, in everything they do. they basically lurk, to make an existence to pay the bills, to try to have a decent life, to go home, they certainly don’t want to go home and watch the news and hear more bad news about what is going to happen to their paychecks and they choose to watch wheel of fortune or some reality show or the Kardashian or whatever else is out there to numb the mind, spend the night drinking a beer, having some wine, trying to forget the day behind them. And try not to thin k about what is going to happen the next day that can be bad. Unfortunately, that is life in America, today. It is not what it is meant to be.

Our forefathers never ever ever envisioned lifetime politicians. Politicians in America have become the royalty of this nation. In Europe they have kings and queens, royalty, princess’ and duchess’. In America we never wanted royalty, George Washington was offered to be king and turned it down. Our Founding Fathers wisely wanted a government of citizen politicians. Meaning you had a business, maybe you were a farmer, you were a merchant and had a store and for a few months each year you would go to your state legislative body or the federal legislative body and work passing laws and doing good for the community and country…then you would go back to your job.

Real soon within 50 or 60 years of America’s founding, that had changed.

You had professional politicians coming forward and by the 1830’s – 40’s you had a political class of people. they were still servants of the people, but over time they became the leaders of the people. And that is what I am talking about when I say they have a political class that now is a monarchy, the elite of America, and they fear you. That is why they want to take away your guns and your cash and they want you to go to a cashless society and they want to make sure you have vaccines and want to make sure you have permits to go where you want to travel because they actually fear you. But just because they fear you doesn’t mean they don’t want to kill you…and do away with you.

The Plain Truth, and this is something that is very hard for many people to swallow, is that our leaders are our enemies.

Our enemy is not Putin in Russia. Our enemy is not Xi in China. Our enemy is not the foreigners rushing over the border, many of them are terrorist, don’t get me wrong and will be our enemy…but our enemies are our politicians, the political class that really hate the people that they pretend to serve. They serve themselves.

We saw this just recently with the republicans in congress, trying to reelect a speaker. IT was a sham! And though conservatives and conservative TV tried to spin it as a win for conservatism as far as getting rid of McCarthy, the average American doesn’t get into politics, they go home like I said, and watch another show. So, they get a little bit of news in the morning drinking their coffee and from the mainstream media. All they see are a bunch of baboon republicans that cannot even agree amongst each other. The average joe or sue says, “these people are just morons. Why should I just vote for them? They cannot even get together. At least the democrats stay in unison”. Isn’t it amazing that the democrats can get together as one, but the republicans are against themselves? It is just plain old stupidity.

Ben Franklin said, after the Declaration of Independence was signed, or maybe just before, but the story is when he went to sign it, he said, if we do not hang together, we are going to hang separately. That is the situation unfortunately that we are in. America, we are on the verge of becoming a totalitarian state. Many people do not know their history but rom was started as a Republic. American republicanism, the republic form of our government was based much on roman standard of government before Julius Cesar. Rome was a democracy and a republic form of democracy at that, that lasted for 400 years with basically just the senate of elites agreeing how to rule the country.

The Roman citizen had a pretty good life. Not until Julius Cesar and the Cesars that followed after him that it became a totalitarian state. So, America is like the modern romans in that we are becoming a totalitarian state from a republic that we once had. We are giving it away as the Romans did, and a dictator is about ready to appear. Joe Biden is as close to a dictator as this country has had since FDR…

I was telling a friend of mine, actually a coeditor today of the plain truth, of the story of gold. I am a coin collector. I don’t know who knows this but by an executive order, not by an order of Congress or of a Supreme Court decision, but an exec order by FDR in 1934, it outlawed the ownership of more than 100 dollars’ worth of gold. Up to 70% of all gold coins were confiscated from the American public and melted down into gold bars that went to fort Knox. The reason there are so many gold coins today from the 1800s to the 1930s is because rich people realized, hey, I might not be able to store the money in America and not go to jail, but I can send it to Europe and put it in banks, and then came the great European bank hoard. We literally have millions of gold coins that the rich and elite in the 30’s shipped overseas for production against FDR’s executive order that outlawed the ownership of gold. The fine was 10 years in prison and a 10 thousand dollar fine, which is equivalent to a 250 thousand dollar fine, today. The president of the United States actually made it impossible for an American citizen to OWN GOLD.

We have flirted with communism and a dictatorship for a long time now. Good presidents have brought us back from the line, Eisenhower brought us back to a more democratic form of gov, there was a cold war going on and the deep states got really powerful under Eisenhower. I believe they removed Kenney and Nixon, and they caused the Vietnam war the way that it did. There is money in war.

My grandfather, and I am talking about the 1960s, at the time he was in his 60s himself, my grandfather said, “democrats end depressions by going to war”. There was a big crash in 1915-16 and hence we went into WWI… then there was the great depression of 1929 and what got us out of that economical pit was WWI. We had an economic crisis right before the Koreon war, we had one when Kennedy took office, he actually lowered income taxes. Some democrats today wouldn’t believe that today, but he lowered them like Reagan would do later on in the 80’s.

But American was facing some hard time and Vietnam was a very good way for corporations to make a lot of money. In the paint business which I am in, which is my main form of income, the 1960s were really great for the paint business. You had literally tens of thousands of gallons a day being sold to the navy, to the army…it went into making weapons and the coloring of the weapons, all going to Vietnam. Airplanes missiles, bombs, all need paint. The paint industry actually boomed in the 60’s and 70’s booming to the effect that many people became millionaires and billionaires in those times. They could just name their price and the government would pay it.

There is big money in war.

Going back to the idea about the media, I listen to people that I think understand what is going on, and then I hear them make statements, like John Fredericks did today…that just does not make rational sense. Unless they think Biden did really win and democrats have found a new way to win by getting people to vote that normally wouldn’t vote. That is NOT what is happening. The last so many elections have been stolen. In my thesis in my senior year of college is that I took an idea, my brother was a psych major and as a result became a psychologist, and me having been a poli sci major, some psychological theories of the day I will still take and use them to see what is going on in other countries. There are two basic methods that I use. There is Professor Julian B. Rotter one of the most famous psychologists of today, came out with the Rotter Internal and External scale. Internal people think they control their destiny. External people believe it controls them. He also noticed it was an ethnic thing. Like Jews for example, tend to be very internal, protestants very internal. Meaning they thought they controlled their own destiny. Mexicans, Latin, Catholic Countries Italians, Spaniards, and Mediterranean’s tended to be very external on this scale. They thought they were a victim of fate. A fate they really couldn’t control.

When I went to college and even high school, there was something called the WASP. White Anglo-Saxon Protestant. They had a wasp work ethic, aka the puritan work ethic. This is where internal people believe the harder they work the more they will get ahead. External people basically believe it doesn’t not matter what they do. IT is already the fate which has been sealed for their life, so why work? And you tend to get a more non-working type looking to the government type people.

I was able to predict with that idea, and also there is another theory called cognitive dissidence You probably know this in your own life or in people around you, and you watch good movies and good tv shows, it is used a lot in people never find a balance in their lives, this is very important and you may know this in your life or in the lives of people around y om You watch good tv and good movies. It is when people cannot find a balance in their life, and they will try to find a balance, like a pendulum, going left to right, left to right and never stop in the middle. Like a clock. So, the nun becomes the housewife and then becomes the prostitute, the prostitute doesn’t become the housewife, they become the nun. People go to the opposite extremes…trying to find the balance which they never do.

My thesis was that the countries do the same thing and you might be able to predict elections by the swing of how people vote and you look through the history of America and you will see that American’s voted in a very conservative Herbert Hoover way, and in the 1920s and then swung to a communists, which FDR really was, he was a commie in the great depression, they didn’t find someone in the middle, they found someone the opposite then what they voted for four years earlier. The same thing happened after Nixon, there was no one like ford, being an unelected president and then they swung to jimmy carter and then they swung radically right to Ronald Reagan. After Reagan comes Bill Clinton, then it goes back to the left, then after Clinton, and then that is when things started to get really interesting.

In 1976 when I wrote this thesis, the election was already over, I predicted that Reagan would be president in 1980 or 1984. That the country would be ready for him. I was a Reaganite. The fact is it was supposed to be Gerald Ford’s year. I also, in 1980 when he did get the nomination in 84, I predicted he would win. In 88 I predicted Bush would win, but 92 I predicted Clinton would win because of Ross Perot, a normal conservative populus vote. I predicted Clinton again in 96, Bush in 2000 and 2004, 2008 was the first time I was wrong. I predicted that John McCain would be elected, and if you think a minute, McCain was the perfect pick, I am not a McCain supporter at all in any way, please know this, he was a Rino if there ever was one but if you look at what republicans and the media were trying to feed you him and Palin as the perfect ticket, you had a very liberal republican loved by the media and you had a vice president Palin, who dragged on the MAGA crowd that we know of today. SO, it should have been a landslide but in this case and he lost. Now I wonder if that wasn’t maybe some type of stolen election, because the pendulum swinging should not have gone from George Bush at the time to Obama. Bush’ economy was good, the war looked like it was won, but it wasn’t really, there was no reason for McCain to lose, 2016 I was accurate again, and 2020 I was wrong, but I really do not think I was because the election was stolen in my estimation.

I am about to run out of time for this program, but I want to know if other people think the same or differently, and you can go to the Message Board or leave comments here at ThePlainTruth.com on these podcasts. But what do people think of the press? I am confused, because I have no idea. I don’t think people in the press have any bit of being in touch with the average worker.

And that is my take. This is Bob Barney, thank you for listening. Make sure you go to the plain truth dot com every day, we have great stories you will not see in one place, anywhere else, thank you for listening.
