Live in and Enjoy the Now
Live In and Enjoy the Now
Junious Ricardo Stanton
As we
prepare to enter a new year, let’s not forget the notion of time is a man-made construct,
the idea of time is something humans made up to serve as a reference point, as
a way to align ourselves with natural phenomenon like lunar and solar cycles,
the “movement” of the stars or the annual Nile flooding for example. Time
really doesn’t exist it is something humans made up.
Calendars are man-made inventions
also; there is the Gregorian calendar the Julian calendar, the calendars of
ancient civilizations like the Nile Valley dwellers, the Aztecs and Mayans.
These calendars and methods to tracking time were created to serve the needs of
the people who created them! There are
cultural devices to benefit their creators.
Since time is a human construct we
must realize there is no magic or mystical divide between December 31st
and January 1st. We have become conditioned to believe there is. Sadly,
all too often this concept which was created for to benefit the people, has
becomes a tool for our undoing. For example, we spend an inordinate amount of
thought and energy focusing or worrying either about the past or the future. Sometimes
we alternate between them both, so much we squander a golden opportunity to
make the most of the here and now, the present.
The past is done and gone; the
future is yet to come. For real for real, the present is all we have. The
present, the here and now, should be our immediate focal point. Unfortunately, we
are spending inordinate amounts of thought and energy focusing on everything
but the here and now/present. I am not suggesting the past is unimportant, it
is. The past serves as lessons teachable moments we can use to benefit from
either other people’s experiences or our own. The past is vital because it is the progenitor
of our present.
For me, life is a school, a continuous
learning opportunity. In the school of life sometimes we are the student other
times we are the teacher and often we are both the student and teacher simultaneously!
We use the past as a teachable moment to learn lessons, gain wisdom and use
these lessons to improve our lives. Remembering and recollecting are good; but
it is not good to live in the past or to use past experiences to stifle our energy,
discourage our ambitions or level of performance.
The future is not here, it does not
exist yet; however, we impact our future by the thoughts we think, by our
emotions, our attitudes meaning the habitual thinking and emotional patterns we’ve
formed and hold and by our actions and inactions. The past and present are
precursors to our future. The law of consequences is always in effect. We reap
what we sow. We sow with our thoughts, words, deeds and our energy. If we want
to reap good results we have to sow good thoughts, words, deeds and energy.
I say this to encourage us to live
in the present, to be mindful of our thoughts, feelings and the type of energy
or vibrations we are omitting. We also have to be aware of what is going on
around us, conscious of the beauty and opportunities right here and now and be
willing to take full advantage of them. Being mindful means being conscious of
the present, focusing on the here and now, not spending most of our mental and
emotional energy looking backwards except as a brief means to acquire wisdom
and information. Nor should we worry or fret about the future which is yet to
come.
People make New Year’s resolutions,
but all too often we fail to keep or manifest them. There are numerous reasons for this: ignorance
of how powerful we really are and how to use what we have; a lack of: confidence,
focus, discipline, specificity and adequate planning etc. Resolutions are good
thing but we have to know how to manifest them.
I believe in the power of our minds, our
imagination, the power of visualization. We can use these to enhance our present,
our here and now which will eventually impact our future. Within us resides the
power and ability to change our lives, forge meaningful and purposeful lives. We
are powerful beings. The world is what we say it is for us, so let’s use our
powers to live fully in the now, to imagine our best selves, our best lives now.
This will ultimately carry over into the future. Happy New Year, enjoy every
day of this trip around the sun.

Peace On Earth Good Will Towards Men
Peace On Earth, Good Will Towards Men
Junious Ricardo Stanton
The din of
materialism, consumerism, commercialism, war, partisan divisiveness and
ideological animus is drowning out the quintessential message of this
season. This is the time of the Winter
Solstice, the Christ Mass, the Karast, of the Anointed One, the Messiah. These are
ancient ideas about the solar sun and allegories about spiritually evolved
personalities born around this time in antiquity; idealized persons who have
sparked the human imagination about the possibilities of a higher human
potential. These ancient personalities have for the most part been erased, suppressed,
perverted, coopted and distorted by modern men in their quest for power and
authority.
December
twenty fifth is the date Christians say Yeshua Bar Joseph the person Europeans
renamed Jesus was born. December twenty-first is the Winter solstice when
ancient star gazers mapped the heavens and noticed the days appeared shorter
and around the twenty-fifth the sun seemed to get stronger and the days started
getting longer, they called it the birth of the Sun.
Many ancient people celebrated this time of
the year and also created Gods and heroes they said were born around this time
of the year. Names like: Heru of ancient Egypt, Bel of Babylon, Prometheus of
Greece, Mithra of Persia and Krishna of India. In the case of the birth of Yeshua,
it is said his nativity was announced by an angel who encouraged Shepards
tending their flock not to be afraid for he had great news to share with them.
According to the Gospel of Luke the angel
spoke and immediately there arouse a heavenly host saying, “Glory to GOD in the
highest and on earth PEACE, good will towards men.”
Somehow
over the years we have disregarded that crucial message and the myths and
messages of the ancients about divine personages and heroes who came to this
realm to enlighten, guide and teach us about a better way to live, be and
navigate the world. In this modern era we have been conditioned to replace awe
and hope with pessimism, materialism, commercialism, commodification and greed.
In the world today war takes precedence over peace, animus, division and
predation are promoted instead of kindness, brotherhood and unity, greed
isolation and disconnection over sharing, community and social integration.
The
question is, are we better off now, are our lives fuller, do we have meaning purpose
and fulfillment in our lives today? Most would, if we are honest, have to say
no. We’d have to admit there is more anxiety, dread, depression, fear and a
sense of disconnection not just to other people but to the whole of nature.
Today unlike our indigenous
ancestors we ignore the unseen energies and powers all around us and we focus
absent mindedly on things gizmos and gadgets that wear out and provide no
significant substance for our lives. But
the good news is we don’t have to go out like this; we don’t have to passively
allow the powers who shouldn’t be to manipulate us and dupe us into becoming ignorant
unfeeling shells of ourselves!
During this holiday season let us
remember the great message and reality that THE CREATOR speaks to us all
through dreams, intuition and “angels”. The message is of universal love, peace
on earth good will towards all.
The warmongers and charlatans don’t
want us to hear the still small voice or acknowledge the dreams, visions and
messages from THE HIGHEST, but they are real and it is here for us now. Take
time to meditate on the significance of the seasonal message, “Glory to THE
CREATOR in the highest and on earth, peace good will towards all” and see what
a significant difference it makes in your life and environment.

You Can't Make This Stuff Up
You Can’t Make This Stuff Up
Junious Ricardo Stanton
The Trump administration has
announced it is appropriating twelve billion dollars to provide aid to the US
agricultural industry as a means to offset their loss of foreign sales. While
this is good news to US agribusiness it obfuscates the real reasons they are
suffering, Trump’s bonehead tariffs and trade policies.
Trump imposed unilateral and
universal tariffs on numerous countries around the world to Make America
Great Again, to restore American manufacturing and generate investment in
America. Sounds great and well-intended, the problem is that is not the main
purpose of tariffs. Tariffs are a form of protectionism a nation uses to fend
off foreign competition or predation to protect its own markets and economic
infrastructure. The problem is the US
doesn’t have any manufacturing industries to protect; the economic shot callers
and corporate policy makers in cahoots with the government, offshored
manufacturing and deindustrialized America decades ago! The US has no steel
industry to speak of yet Trump imposes tariffs on foreign steel.
Trump’s currency and trade wars
which his tariffs are an integral component are not good for the American
economy. His demands the central bank lower interest rates is not a solution to
inflation; it will devalue the US dollar even more and disincentivize savings
cut interest rates on pensions and retirement accounts! His tariffs are raising
money but they are also raising the costs of the goods being imported into the
country, a double whammy on ordinary Americans.
Back to the bail out of the
agricultural industry and I use that term rather than the word farmers because
in America today family farms, small mom and pop farms are in rapid decline,
farming for the most part is being done by huge agribusinesses. So Trump’s bone
headed trade war with China for example is hurting small farmers as well as the
giant agribusinesses.
China will not be bullied by Trump
or the West. Those days are long gone. So in order to feed their people China
like any consumer who feels disadvantaged by one provider shopped elsewhere for
their soybeans and is now buying from Brazil and Argentina. Trump’s tariff
policies have backfired like a Wylie E. Coyote Acme rocket, in September of
2025 China stopped buying US soybeans altogether! Now Trump is frantically
attempting to reconcile with China and renegotiate tariff terms. China is being polite and cordial but is
still not purchasing US goods. This is
why Trump is paying the agribusinesses and farmers twelve billion dollars, to
try to offset their huge losses.
The really sad part is this is not
the first time Trump’s policies have blown up in his face. The exact same thing
happened during his first administration his bluster and bombast irritated
China and they went to Argentina for soybeans forcing Trump to subsidize US
agribusiness for their losses and keep a key political base and constituency on
his side.
They say insanity is doing the same
things over and over again expecting different results. By this reckoning Trump
is insane! His tariffs are not resulting in manufacturing returning to the US.
The deindustrialization of America is not going to be reversed, not by Trump or
anyone else! That train left the station long ago.
Trump’s bluster and bombast should
be wearing thin by now but Trump’s groupies and the MAGAites are so gullible
they keep falling for his okey-doke.
Trump is clickbait for the media on both sides of the political divide
so they keep it coming. Plus Trump has
his own social media platform which makes the bluster and bombast even worse.
On the other hand, the alternatives
on either side of the political spectrum do not bode well for America
either. Despite the funds Trump’s
tariffs are bringing in, he is exacerbating the government’s debt, contrary to
DOGE’s bogus claims. During the first eleven months of Trump’s second term US
government debt increased 1.78 trillion dollars! Needless to say, this is
unsustainable.
Factoring in all of this, if we are
sane and that’s a big “if” given the brain fog and mental illness this nation
is experiencing; we have to conclude we are living in a Bizzaro World, the
Twilight Zone or an Orwellian nightmare where truth is falsehood, lies are held
sacrosanct, war is peace and the crew is rearranging the deck chairs on a
doomed ship of state. You can’t make this stuff up.

Paying For Our Own Enslavement
Paying For Our Own Enslavement
Junious Ricardo Stanton
During this
inflationary period, we hear many complaints about energy costs, the rising
price of electricity, food, clothing and other items. What most don’t know is
the rising costs we are being charged for electricity have nothing to do with
the number of kilowatts we ourselves use. The escalating costs are because of
the energy the AI data, collection and storage systems are using along with
water to power and cool the servers and other gizmos and gadgets within the
infrastructure being constructed to spy on us, track us, surveil, harvest data
and analyze us as part of the New World Order/Great Reset.
Why is this significant you ask? I’m glad you asked, because the AI
surveillance, data collection and storage facilities are an integral part of
the Big Brother digital gulag being constructed as we speak. This high tech
infrastructure of course is being touted as progress, modernity and we are
assured it is beneficial; but the question is, beneficial to whom?
Certainly not us. The more of these
data, monitoring and storage centers being bult and the present in operation ones
do not include the information that will be gathered, processed and stored from
satellites, an ever growing number of cameras, aerial drones or implanted internal body technology being developed to
study us, harvest data and create personal geo-fencing to restrict us within
certain geographic areas we will not be allowed to venture beyond without
special approval and permission. It will be like the slave militias and passes
during Ante Bellum slavery, only they will be digital/electronic.
Sound like
science fiction? Actually, it’s real in real time and it is being implemented
as we speak. This is the very reason our electricity bills are climbing ever
upward. These data centers, keep in mind the current ones are merely the
initial iteration of them, cost five to ten times more energy consumption than
an average office building. Keep in mind they run 24/7/365 and require massive
amounts of energy and water to keep them operating and cool! Cooling accounts
for over fifty percent of the costs! Keep in mind the cost is being passed on
to us! Most of these projects are private/corporate owned entities, not
government projects. The government is merely a junior partner in all of this.
These costs
are not initial startup costs either; they will be an ongoing feature and will
rise annually as more and more facilities come online. This system will be a ubiquitous
an all-seeing eye/ear with a biometric tracking and identification
network/Matrix! Think about this, the cost will increase exponentially yearly. It
must, as more and more data, processing and storage facilities come online and
the technology expands to include global satellites, drones, more omnipresent
cameras, biometric data and storage which already exist plus those that will expand
precipitously. The Utilities and Silicon Valley type organizations are
expanding power gridlines and substations to support the data and collection
centers, not to improve consumer intensive services where we live. Meanwhile
the costs are being passed on to be borne by us, not them!
For example, in 2024 an
analysis by a group calling themselves The Union of Concerned Scientists
stated there were $4.3 billion in energy cost increases in 2024 for just seven
states: Illinois, Maryland, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and West
Virginia. https://blog.ucs.org/mike-jacobs/data-centers-are-already-increasing-your-energy-bills/.
Extrapolate this into a national and global system and you can plainly see how
we are being played!
It's already in operation which is
why our energy and water bills are increasing. It’s just going to get more
expensive as time goes on. This is not
about your own personal energy use; we are being used to foot the bills for the
very systems which are designed to put us in open air digital gulags; Big
Brother on steroids!
We are being bled to pay for a system designed
to usher in the New World Order! How’s that for arrogance and
guile? Were you notified about any of
this? How many of you saw this on a local or statewide election referendum ballot
and voted to approve this? Not many, I’m sure. The fact is, very few people are
even aware why their energy and water rates are going up.
The ruling elites and overlords want to keep
us in the dark about what they are doing until the infrastructure is fully completed;
although they tell us this is progress and it’s for our good. Don’t fall for
their okey-doke, this is about techno-tyranny. The globalist overlords tricking
us into paying for our own imprisonment.

Take Time To Be Grateful
Take Time to Be Grateful
Junious Ricardo Stanton
As we in
the United States pause to “celebrate” Thanksgiving a day officially set aside
by legislative decree to offer thanks to the Almighty for the blessings and
bounty we’ve experienced let us look beyond the superficialities of sports,
consumerism, the food and spending to focus on what really matters, being genuinely
thankful, grateful and appreciative.
Thanksgiving
is a day shrouded in myth and custom that during times of political agitation
and divisiveness, economic uncertainty, privation and growing wealth
disparities like we are experiencing today, can cause anxiety, uneasiness and
trepidation the very opposite of what this day is set aside for, being truly
grateful.
Despite the
manifold ills of society, the crass materialism, callousness and incivility
that abound, we can make a difference, we can make meaningful changes but not
in the way most think. Real transformation and change come from the inside out,
they are driven by an inner resolve, fortitude and action; not by being outer
directed and doing things like: voting, going to rallies and demonstrations.
Real change results from
determining to replace our current thoughts, values, priorities and behavior
with new ones which better reflect our broadening consciousness. It is fine to
have wants and dreams but we must ask ourselves are these desires in alignment
with our highest values, our best interests, are they moral, helpful and
positive; are they beneficial to ourselves and others?
On this day let us give thanks for
what we have, our untapped potential and the latent possibilities within
ourselves and determine to manifest them.
Thanksgiving is about recognizing our blessings, what we have,
recognizing who we are and realizing we all have many things to be thankful and
appreciative of and for!
We are alive and experiencing a
modicum of good health and sanity. Be thankful for this an build upon these to
improve and better ourselves. We have life animating us and we have gifts and
talents we have been given, inherited or cultivated we can share with the
world. Life in its essence is about sharing and serving others. We are not here
alone, neither are we here by accident, the universe, contrary to foolish
beliefs doesn’t work like that.
THE CREATOR creates with divine purpose,
divine intelligence and energy to imbue each of us with stunning talents and
abilities most of which we are still yet to cultivate and express. Be grateful
for what you have and make it a goal to develop and manifest even more than you
have already discovered, you are probably a multi-genius.
Our responsibility during this life
time is to use our gifts, talents, aptitudes and genius to benefit humanity,
ourselves and the world. Not all of us are going to be rich, famous or rich and
famous. Nevertheless, each of us can serve, all of us can help ourselves and
others navigate this world to make it a better place.
You say the world is too hard, there is too
much evil and hatred in it, I’m just one person. Yes, you are one person but
you are not impotent. You are more powerful than you realize. We don’t have to
directly call out or confront, ignorance and evil on every occasion, we can
counter balance them just by being our best selves, by being who and all THE
CREATOR intends of us to be! This is
enough!
Stop to take time to reflect on all
your blessings today and every day. No matter your station or situation in
life, you are blessed. Take time today to meditate on your blessings and think
about how you will use what you already have to better yourself and the world.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Desensitized, Dumbed Down and Discombobulated
Desensitized, Dumbed Down and Discombobulated
Junious Ricardo Stanton
By now most sane people have come
to the realization we live in a Kakistocracy, a nation ruled by the most venal,
immoral, ruthless, corrupt and psychopathic among us; and their influence is
desensitizing us to the suffering they are causing here and around the
globe. In order for the ruling class to
continue to rob, plunder and pillage the globe, they have to continue to dupe
us 24/7/365 and employ tactics to coerce us into acquiescing to their
tyrannical anti-life agendas. To be successful they must keep us
discombobulated, distracted, disoriented and dull. We are seeing this on full
display daily.
One of the ways demagogues
manipulate the masses is through fear, they play on our ignorance, using
negative emotions like guilt and shame to undermine our confidence in ourselves
and our capabilities. Through their media they control the discourse and the
narrative and they have created a falsified reality. They know a fearful and
frightened public is easily manipulated; the greater the fear the easier it is
to dupe and program humans to do their bidding. They also know they must use
every tool at their disposal to keep us divided, suspicious and antagonistic
towards each other and unaware of the ways we are being manipulated and played
by their lapdogs and lackies.
We are seeing this scenario played
out in so many ways and areas of our lives. For example, we are bombarded with nonstop
multifaceted stimuli, created and designed to agitate and divide us and
undermine any grass roots attempts at unification. All we are exposed to are
deeply partisan politics, ideological disputation and value conflicts designed
to foment discord to prevent us coming together to find common ground, discern
and evaluate our situation in ways that empower ourselves and stifle the ruling
elites’ hold on our lives. Their divide and rule tactics are working.
The ruling elites use advanced
technologies, mind control, their knowledge of human nature and their long
history of programming and influence to goad us to doing what they want us to
do, which is so often not in our best interests. They are using technology to
blur the lines and threshold between reality and illusion, truth and falsehood,
authenticity and fakery.
They program us using images, words
and emotional triggers they know will produce a predictable reaction. This is
called the problem-reaction-solution paradigm, a variation of the Hegelian Dialectic (thesis,
reaction, antithesis), whereby situations and circumstances are created or used
to incite a predictable response so those instigating the situation can then
offer their predetermined “solutions”.
For example, five years ago the
powers who shouldn’t be, invented what they called a “novel virus” aka SARS
COV-2 or COVID-19 to panic the world into mindlessly reacting in ways that
would result in them making massive profits, reconfiguring the world from what
we knew to a dystopian neo-feudal technocracy supposedly as their solution for
future pandemics. The real problem is, SAR-COV-2 proved not to be a lethal
natural virus for people who were healthy. In fact, COVID-19 had a 98% survival
rate for healthy people, the operative words here are healthy people. Most
American are not healthy and certain demographics like Native Americans and
Blacks have high levels of chronic conditions like obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular
issues, inflammation and cancer. The shots exacerbated these conditions and in
some cases triggered new illnesses.
It is a known fact fear and
hysteria prevent critical thinking and trigger the fight flight response. Major
hysteria was triggered by a global media campaign which hyped the virus and the
lie that only their mRNA inoculations offered viable treatment and cures.
However, the ineffectively tested
COVID mRNA “vaccines” did not work so well. There weren’t free safe or
effective! (Moderna had never created nor brought a pharmaceutical product to
market in its ten-year history! How was this allowed to happen?!) None of the mRNA shots stopped the spread of
the virus, they prevent subsequent variants from morphing or protect anyone
from them!
No one was allowed to question or
offer alternative treatment modalities. Alternative ideas were suppressed and
censored under threat of firing, loss of professional licensing and financial
support! Now studies are coming out that reveal alarming links between the mRNA
shots and neuropsychiatric disorders, cancer (breast, colorectal, gastric lung
prostate, thyroid and pancreatic) and a host of other chronic conditions yet
the American public is being kept in the dark about this!
As a result of the lies,
disinformation, censorship and suppression we are being desensitized, dumbed
down and discombobulated. COVID is merely one example of how we are being lied
to, duped, deluded and injured. People are apathetic about how we are being
treated. We are comatose and Zombie like
as we wander through a maze of lies and falsehoods. I could say the same thing
about Trump’s boneheaded tariffs or the real deal about inflation. Like I said
earlier we live in a kakistocracy.

Unpleasant Truths
Unpleasant
Truths
Junious Ricardo Stanton
There are numerous
unpleasant truths Americans of all stripes, phenotypes and colors need to
confront and determine what, if anything, we can do to resolve them. What are
unpleasant truths you ask? Simply put, unpleasant truths are difficult and
uncomfortable facts which need to be acknowledged and addressed; by addressed,
I mean confronted and resolved. Failure to do so will result in conditions
worsening and potentially spiraling even more out of control with devastating
consequences!
The first
unpleasant truth we must acknowledge and confront is, America is a kakistocracy.
A kakistocracy is a country that is ruled by the most venal, immoral, depraved
and psychopathic personalities within it, who set a tone and tenor which
reflects their greed, corruption, depravity, mendacity and wanton disregard for
life.
We see it all around us, corruption
and decadence have become normal, tolerated and accepted aspects of American
life and culture. Through their ownership and control of state power, the
media, perception management, miseducation and propaganda apparatuses, the
ruling elites have created a nation of sheep, Zombies and automatons who
mindlessly do their bidding, acquiesce to their lies, buy into, mirror and
mimic their behavior and values. The moral rot is metastasizing rapidly to the
point of no return.
Take the ongoing
government shutdown for example; a very unpleasant truth is, the shutdown is adversely
impacting millions of Americans though disrupted or discontinued services, job
cuts, that the government and media euphemistically call: reductions in force,
downsizing or layoffs and these are negatively impacting millions. In the midst
of this, another unpleasant truth is, the money grubbing/bribe/grift taking
Congress critters are still getting paid, they have life time retirement benefits
and perks even during the government shutdown; unlike the government workers and
ordinary citizens who are being severely disadvantaged by their callousness and
insensitivity. To add insult to injury most of the so-called public
servants are twelve times wealthier than the average US family. How does this
happen?
Meanwhile citizens hard earned tax
dollars are sent around the globe to foreign countries to facilitate genocide,
ethnic cleansing, war, resource plunder and to prop up corrupt or cowered foreign
leaders. This is designed to keep the American Empire’s hegemonic ambitions
afloat and further enrich the plutocrats who run the system.
Another obvious hard truth is although Trump
campaigned as a “peace” president he is facilitating devastating wars by
funding them and by his narcistic bombast and bellicose threats. The funding of
these wars and covert actions is at the direct expense of the citizens and our crumbling domestic infrastructure. For example,
the US spent five billion dollars to undermine the duly elected Ukrainian
government in 2014. That money could have been used to improve mass
transportation, repair roads or underwrite health care and real education
programs here in the US! But the truth is the imperial hubris of the ruling
classes is a higher priority than benefitting the ordinary citizens of America!
The ongoing government shutdown is
part of a deliberate campaign to prepare and condition Americans to accept and
tolerate a government that is not responsive to their needs and priorities.
This is a precursor to a decline in our standard of living to third world
status! For example, the cancelling of numerous airplane flights is preparing
US citizens to accept they will not be able to fly on demand, go where they
choose when they choose and the experience of being inconvenienced and
powerless to do anything about it.
Another uncomfortable truth is,
inflation is at an all-time high, because of the massive increase of the US money
supply (M2) in circulation. The fact is trillions of dollars have been pumped
into circulation during the last few years, subsequently debasing the US dollars’
value. The dollar’s depreciation is the real reason consumer prices are rising
and items are more costly, due to government sanctioned counterfeiting. And Trump’s totally arbitrary universal tariffs
are exacerbating the situation.
While there are many other
unpleasant truths, the last one I’ll mention this time is; Trump sending state
National Guard troops into cities without the existence of a genuine emergency
or without being requested by states’ governors is totally unconstitutional! It
is designed to get Americans accustomed to unilateral authoritarian decisions that
place US troops on the streets of our cities based upon bogus threats or petty
political vendettas. In this regard the US is rapidly becoming a banana
republic that eschews morality and the rule of law!
These unpleasant truths need to be acknowledged,
addressed and resolved; the question is, will we?
