Ownload Economic Battle Plan LT. COl. Allen West - Global & Domestic Threats 2.51 [Economic Battle PlanTM points: 75] Background Briefing: With the 2020 election coming up, America is at a critical crossroad. Lt. Col Allen West visits the Economic War Room to provide an update regarding external and internal threats facing America. Also, Col. West makes a major announcement about his plans to help America and Texas. WARNING: China and Iran may have more interest in what happens to the US election in 2020 than the average voter. This briefing highlights what you should be sharing with your friends and associates now. Your Mission: To better understand the key internal and external threats facing America, the motivations behind them, and why with this upcoming election your vote is more important than ever! page 1 LT. COl. Allen West - Global & Domestic Threats 2.51 [Economic Battle PlanTM points: 75] (OSINT)– Open Sourced Intelligence Briefing Open Sourced Intelligence Briefing with highlights. This includes quotes and summaries of conversations in the Economic War Room with Kevin Freeman and Lt. Col. Allen West. 1. The Importance of American Sovereignty and Peace Through Strength: • We want to have a credible military deterrent We do not want more wars, but our adversaries need to believe that we will confront and engage them when it is needed. • The successful strategy of “Peace through Strength” is very different than Obama’s approach of “Strategic Patience.” The patience strategy led to the rise of ISIS and the enablement of Iran. • With the Trump administration, we went from a weak presence to a strong presence globally. You might hear different narratives in the media, and at times it may disrupt the old guard, but our enemies/adversaries no longer assume America will sit back and be taken advantage of. • Economics, Energy, and National Security are all related. The Obama administration decimated all three. • We are now an exporter of oil and natural gas. Without this strength in energy, Iran and the Middle East could push high energy prices for all. Higher energy prices would drag on the economy. • Strength in energy undermines Russia and Middle East leverage against the US. Look at what has happened in the Strait of Hormuz. Yet, oil prices in the US and around the world remain reasonable. Suddenly holding our allies accountable is shocking to the political and media narratives. page 2 LT. COl. Allen West - Global & Domestic Threats 2.51 [Economic Battle PlanTM points: 75] “President Trump even called out Angela Merkel, essentiall asking, ‘Why are you having this energy agreement with Russia when you’re asking us to be a part of NATO and protect you from Russia? And you’re not even paying your own fair share as far as NATO members.’ So those are the type of things that we need, a strong leader on foreign policy aspect, the national security aspect and our economic security aspect.” –Lt. Col. Allen West 2. Internal Threats: Socialism rising in prominence and within our media. “You don’t have to convince anyone who the other side is. They have come out of the closet and have frankly said ‘We’re socialists. We believe in wealth redistribution. We believe in nationalizing economic production. We believe in the creation and expansion of a welfare nanny state. We believe in social egalitarianism and we believe in secular humanism.’ Now, those things have never been successful anywhere in the world.” –Lt. Col. Allen West • Socialists have come out of the closet. The left thinks they know better and wants to tell you how to live your life. • They are supporting what appears to be cultural Marxism, where they are just destroying what is traditional America. • They will try to point to all the Scandinavian countries as examples of socialism success. Scandinavian countries have strong social welfare policies but are still free market economies. page 3 LT. COl. Allen West - Global & Domestic Threats 2.51 [Economic Battle PlanTM points: 75] • These are very small homogenous countries and not scalable. Most are smaller than the Dallas/Ft Worth, Texas area. In addition to Socialism there are numerous other internal threats the US is facing that include: a) Illegal immigration. b) Lack of belief in the rule of law and our constitution. c) The threat to the traditional family especially in urban cities. d) Arising domestic terrorist groups like Antifa. e) New Concerns over free and fair elections. f) Censorship. • With the open borders agenda led by the left, this means even more people flooding the country looking for social benefits. The Socialistic Utopia they hope for becomes even more impossible. • If you come here illegally and support illegal immigration, that means you do not believe in the sovereignty of the United States. You don’t believe in the rule of law and our Constitution. Without a border, there is no nation. Without a nation, we do not have a future. • Many in the mainstream media are supporting the socialist narrative and that is a threat to our free market. • Traditional America is being destroyed. Just look at something as basic as a nuclear family. This is especially true in our inner city urban communities. page 4 LT. COl. Allen West - Global & Domestic Threats 2.51 [Economic Battle PlanTM points: 75] `In 1961, the percentage of two-parent (father/mother) households in the black community was between 70% and 77%. Today is 23-24%. Look at all the problems you have in the inner city urban communities. • Antifa in the US - They look like and meet the criteria of a domestic terror organization. But, they are allowed to continue in their efforts to take down America and free speech through violence. CASE STUDY from the left– Government knows best and wants control. Berkley California wants to control what you cook with and how you heat your home. What happened to the freedom-loving hippies? If you live in Berkeley the government is now telling you no natural gas ovens or stoves. Homes need to be entirely electric. The ironic part is that their electricity is often derived from natural gas. Berkeley is going to drive up the energy cost of its residents. We have seen similar failed experiements in some Texas towns. “You want to the right way to to heat a tortilla? It is to cook it over an open flame. We’ve eliminated that in Berkeley, California, right down to the nitty gritty. Socialism wants to control what people think, how they act, and every aspect of your life. “Constitutional conservatism believes in the strength of the individual while progressive socialism believes in the subjugation of the individual and the rise of the collective. You can’t even make a decision about your own house. You know, they’ve already said, you have to have these solar panels on your home, and all of these other specifications.” –Kevin Freeman page 5 LT. COl. Allen West - Global & Domestic Threats 2.51 [Economic Battle PlanTM points: 75] 3. This is the most important election of our lifetime and China knows it! • Could 2020 be the last free election we have? • External Threats: China, Russia, North Korea, Venezuela would love to have a progressive socialist in the White House that doesn’t pay attention to them. A president that says that these are all the things that we’re going to do here in the United States: We’re going to implement the policies of a wealth tax. We’re going to implement the policies of free college tuition. We’re going to continue to allow legal immigrants to come into the country. This means that Hezbollah can work with the drug cartels and get their people into the country. • We need to elect a president in 2020 that believes in the Constitution, or we will have no nation, no future. • President Trump appears to be leading against US internal and external geopolitical threats. Trump’s stance with China is clearly a challenge to the Chinese Dream of stealing intellectual property, forced transfer of technology, hacking, and the dominance of the Chinese Communist Party. • WATCH OUT: President Trump’s actions to defend America through tariffs are impacting China’s economy and China is highly incented to ensure Trump does not win another term. • China has a long-ball strategy. And China is going to try to hold out as long as possible with the hope that President Trump can be defeated in November, 2020. page 6 LT. COl. Allen West - Global & Domestic Threats 2.51 [Economic Battle PlanTM points: 75] • China’s economy will be in significant trouble with four more years of Trump and they recognize the threat. What will they do about it? Just about anything is on the table. • If President Trump wins re-election, the Chinese will come to the table to say, ‘No more. Whatever you want, let’s do it.’ Right now, they feel they can potentially wait two more years before conceding and are looking for ways to weaken Trump as a candidate. The media, and other elites seem to even be hinting for China to hold out until another election cycle. 4. Concern over free and fair elections in the US? • There’s a concern there will be no more free and fair elections, especially when you have these technology companies controlling the dialogue by search-engine manipulation and social media censorship/throttling. • It is a threat to our free market. It’s a threat to the Republic. It’s a threat to one man, one vote. “I Google myself and I see what kind of stories pop up and sometimes there are stories from eight years ago.

  • A Matter of Inches My Last Fight
    INDEPENDENT PUBLISHERS GROUP A Matter of Inches How I Survived in the Crease and Beyond Clint Malarchuk, Dan Robson Summary No job in the world of sports is as intimidating, exhilarating, and stress­ridden as that of a hockey goaltender. Clint Malarchuk did that job while suffering high anxiety, depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder and had his career nearly literally cut short by a skate across his neck, to date the most gruesome injury hockey has ever seen. This autobiography takes readers deep into the troubled mind of Clint Malarchuk, the former NHL goaltender for the Quebec Nordiques, the Washington Capitals, and the Buffalo Sabres. When his carotid artery was slashed during a collision in the crease, Malarchuk nearly died on the ice. Forever changed, he struggled deeply with depression and a dependence on alcohol, which nearly cost him his life and left a bullet in his head. Now working as the goaltender coach for the Calgary Flames, Malarchuk reflects on his past as he looks forward to the future, every day grateful to have cheated death­twice. 9781629370491 Pub Date: 11/1/14 Author Bio Ship Date: 11/1/14 Clint Malarchuk was a goaltender with the Quebec Nordiques, the Washington Capitals, and the Buffalo Sabres. $25.95 Hardcover Originally from Grande Prairie, Alberta, he now divides his time between Calgary, where he is the goaltender coach for the Calgary Flames, and his ranch in Nevada.

  • The Pennsylvania State University
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School REMEMBERING JIMMY CARTER THE RHETORICAL EVOCATIONS OF PRESIDENTIAL MEMORIES A Thesis in Communication Arts and Sciences by Brandon M. Johnson 2020 Brandon M. Johnson Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts August 2020 The thesis of Brandon M. Johnson was reviewed and approved by the following: Mary E. Stuckey Professor, Communication Arts and Sciences Thesis Advisor Stephen H. Browne Liberal Arts Professor of Communication Arts and Sciences Michael J. Steudeman Assistant Professor of Rhetoric and Director of CAS100A Denise H. Solomon Head and Liberal Arts Professor of Communication Arts and Sciences iii ABSTRACT This thesis is an analysis of the public memory of Jimmy Carter and the way the historical resources of his presidency (including his perceived moral character) are interpreted and evoked as a shorthand for presidential failure by associating him with a rhetoric of weakness. Broadly, I consider the nature of presidential memory, asking how a presidency passes from history to memory. I suggest that presidential histories serve as inventional resources in the present, with rhetors evoking interpretations of the past as rhetorical appeals. These appeals are acts of memory, and analyzing how they function discursively and are deployed strategically draws out how presidential memory works and what implications it has to presidential rhetoric. The different strategies used in remembering the presidency of Jimmy Carter are useful texts for rhetorically critiquing this process because Carter is often deployed as a rhetorical shorthand, providing a representative example of interpreting presidential pasts. I begin by considering the evolving scholarship and historiography on Carter and conceptualizing how presidential pasts can be interpreted in the present through acts of remembering.

  • The Art of the Deal for North Korea: the Unexplored Parallel Between Bush and Trump Foreign Policy*
    International Journal of Korean Unification Studies Vol. 26, No. 1, 2017, 53–86. The Art of the Deal for North Korea: The Unexplored Parallel between Bush and Trump Foreign Policy* Soohoon Lee ‘Make America Great Again,’ has been revived while ‘America First’ and ‘peace through strength,’ have been revitalized by the Trump admin­­­ istration. Americans and the rest of the world were shocked by the dramatic transformation in U.S. foreign policy. In the midst of striking changes, this research analyzes the first hundred days of the Trump administration’s foreign policy and aims to forecast its prospects for North Korea. In doing so, the George W. Bush administration’s foreign policy creeds, ‘American exceptionalism’ and ‘peace through strength,’ are revisited and compared with that of Trump’s. Beyond the similarities and differences found between the two administrations, the major finding of the analysis is that Trump’s profit­oriented nature, through which he operated the Trump Organization for nearly a half century, has indeed influenced the interest- oriented nature in his operating of U.S. foreign policy. The prospects for Trump’s policies on North Korea will be examined through a business­ sensitive lens. Keywords: Donald Trump, U.S Foreign Policy, North Korea, America First, Peace through Strength Introduction “We are so proud of our military. It was another successful event… If you look at what’s happened over the eight weeks and compare that to what’s happened over the last eight years, you'll see there’s a tremen­ * This work was supported by a National Research Foundation of Korea Grant funded by the Korean Government (NRF­2016S1A3A2924968).

  • THE UNITED STATES INSTITUTE of PEACE Sreeram Chaulia
    International Journal of Peace Studies, Volume 14, Number 1, Spring/Summer 2009 ONE STEP FORWARD, TWO STEPS BACKWARD: THE UNITED STATES INSTITUTE OF PEACE Sreeram Chaulia Abstract This essay applies critical theories of knowledge-producing institutions to demonstrate the utility of a conceptual framework about elite institutions that are deployed by powerful authorities to suppress anti- establishment knowledge. It asserts that knowledge-centric institutions which are appendages of power structures act to consume radical grassroots ideas in society and replace them with sympathy, loyalty and obedience to the establishment. It uses the case of the United States Institute of Peace to test the framework and show how this think tank has been consistently used by US foreign policy elites as an instrument to counter the peace movement. The conclusion offers thoughts on structural conditions through which more objective and people-centric think tanks can be built. Knowledge-Producing Institutions and Hegemony Hegemonic power structures, be they domestic or international, rest on a tissue of ideas that is beefed up with economic and military muscle. Rationality dictates that powerful actors in a society or international system cannot permanently rely on coercion to achieve their ends. This is due to the impossibility of policing each nook and cranny of the space that is subject to rule, as well as the natural instinct of the weak to attempt “everyday forms of resistance” (Scott, 1985). No system of rule can completely avoid slippage and subversion at the margins, but it can employ a vast intellectual apparatus to ensure that dissenting knowledge is contained at manageable levels or quarantined, so that the whole forest does not catch flame.

  • Reclaiming Peace in International Relations
    Reclaiming Peace in International Relations Reclaiming Peace in International Relations Oliver P. Richmond* What is peace? This basic question often appears in contemporary orthodoxy to have been settled in favour of the ‘liberal peace’. Yet, this has, in many post-conflict settings, proved to create a ‘virtual peace’- empty states and institutions which are ambivalent about everyday life. In this context peace is widely referred to but rarely defined. Though the concept of peace is often assumed to be normatively irreproachable, formative in the founding of the discipline, and central to the agendas of liberal states, it has rarely been directly approached as an area of study within IR. This essay endeavours to illustrate how developing accounts of peace helps chart the different theoretical and methodological contributions in IR, and the complex issues that then emerge. These include the pressing problem of how peace efforts become sustainable rather than merely inscribed in international and state-level diplomatic and military frameworks. This also raises issues related to an ontology of peace, culture, development, agency and structure, not just in terms of the representations of the world, and of peace, presented in the discipline, but in terms of the sovereignty of the discipline itself and its implications for everyday life. In an interdisciplinary and pluralist field of study – as IR has now become – concepts of peace and their sustainability are among those that are central. This raises the question of what the discipline is for, if not for peace? This paper explores such issues in the context of orthodox and critical IR theory, methods, and ontology, and offers some thoughts about the implications of placing peace at the centre of IR.

  • 1 the Great Communicator and the Beginning of the End of the Cold War1 by Ambassador Eric S. Edelman President Ronald Reagan Is
    The Great Communicator and the Beginning of the End of the Cold War1 By Ambassador Eric S. Edelman President Ronald Reagan is known as the “Great Communicator,” a soubriquet that was awarded to him by New York Times columnist Russell Baker, and which stuck despite Reagan’s disclaimer in his farewell address that he “wasn’t a great communicator” but that he had “communicated great things.” The ideas which animated Reagan’s vision were given voice in a series of extraordinary speeches, many of them justly renowned. Among them are his “Time for Choosing” speech in 1964, his “Shining City on a Hill” speech to CPAC in 1974, his spontaneous remarks at the conclusion of the Republican National Convention in 1976 and, of course, his memorable speeches as President of the United States. These include his “Evil Empire” speech to the National Association of Evangelicals, his remarks at Westminster in 1982, his elegiac comments commemorating the 40th anniversary of the D-Day invasion and mourning the Challenger disaster, and his Berlin speech exhorting Mikhail Gorbachev to “Tear Down this Wall” in 1987, which Time Magazine suggested was one of the 10 greatest speeches of all time.2 Curiously, Reagan’s address to the students of Moscow State University during the 1988 Summit with Mikhail Gorbachev draws considerably less attention today despite the fact that even normally harsh Reagan critics hailed the speech at the time and have continued to cite it subsequently. The New York Times, for instance, described the speech as “Reagan’s finest oratorical hour” and Princeton’s liberal historian Sean Wilentz has called it “the symbolic high point of Reagan’s visit….
