Ted Cruz and John McCain: The secret emails revealed!

2013-05-10T15:58:00.000-05:00

Freshman Republican Sen. Ted Cruz and veteran Republican Sen. John McCain have butted heads on several occasions since Cruz entered the Senate earlier this year. The Daily Caller has exclusively obtained a recent email exchange between them.

The exchange is reprinted here for the first time, in its entirety, and without comment.

From: John McCain

To: Ted Cruz

Date: May 6, 2013

My dear friend,I feel like we’ve started off on the wrong foot. Although there have been many times this Congress that I’ve longed to feel your soft face pressed helplessly against my knuckles, a lifetime of service has taught me that, with effort, I can forgive almost any slight for the good of the country. Please consider this note an olive branch, and realize that any suggestions come from a place a friendship.I understand that you came to the Senate looking to shake things up, and while that’s all well and good, you should understand that we abide by certain standards here in the world’s greatest deliberative body. For example, it is generally considered impolite for a freshman to call an older senator a “pussy,” particularly when the senator in question is a decorated war veteran, and the freshman is a slouching little lady-man who went to Harvard. It is likewise considered uncouth to push older senators down the stairs, as you did with Sen. Hatch, and call them “sugar tits,” as you did with Sen. Reid.I look forward to your upcoming apology to these members of the Senate, as well as your continued contributions to the debate about the future of our country.Regards,John

Well, senator, I think it’s about time someone taught you a thing or two about what freedom means and why it’s worth defending.Freedom, senator, means America. And America means freedom. That’s what I’m fighting for. Have you even ever considered putting your hide on the line for freedom? Come over to my office when you have a chance. I’d be happy to teach you all about courage and honor.I only like to deal with facts, senator. So here are a few important ones that are worth considering: I graduated at the top of my class at both Princeton and Harvard Law. You graduated at the bottom of your class at Annapolis and crashed a plane three times. Also, I have never crashed a plane.Now, you referenced the Hatch incident, or as some call it in Cruz-land, “The First Battle in the War to Restore Liberty.” It just so happens that Sen. Hatch is what we real Americans call a RINO — and I don’t mean the animal. I mean a Republican In Name Only. The most vile of species. I also have it on good authority that Sen. Hatch was trying to spread Shariah law in the Senate (he’s from Utah where there are lots of Muslims). So I pushed him down the stairs to send a message: There’s a new boss in town, and he isn’t afraid to kick you when you’re not looking.Watch your back, senator — or you may be taking a ride down the stairs like Imam Hatch.

Give Me Freedom or Give Me Death,

Ted Cruz 2016

My dear, dear friend,
You’re a smart one, aren’t you? How else could a man with all the charm of a North Vietnamese prison guard rise so far, and so quickly! You know how to sling the red meat, you Joe McCarthy-looking son of a bitch, and for that I applaud you. Build the dang fence, and all that. I know how this game is played.
Regards,
John
P.S. Sen. Murkowski tells me you recently lost an arm wrestling match with her, and Sen. Sessions tells me you sit when you pee.

From: Ted Cruz

Senator,

Have you no sense of decency, sir? The language you use degrades the hallowed chamber in which we serve. I wish you would reconsider the meaning of the office to which you’ve been elected and the responsibility it carries to set the right example for our nation’s youth. But more likely you’ll ignore my admonition and probably just burn in hell.

In Liberty,

Ted Cruz 2016

P.S. I’m soon going to be president — and you’re going to be 80. How do you like them apples?

Three things to know in the event of martial law or invasion

2013-05-10T15:57:00.003-05:00

1. The first thing and one of the most important things – DO NOT PANIC. Panic serves two things. First it is a tool used to catch you off guard so that you are not where you should be and the other is meant to instills in us a since of false hope. I put this first on the list because it is the first offensive push, be it civilian or military; that they will attempt to try.

Let me give an example of a push for panic by our Government right now. I speak of course of Gun Control. There is a reason that Biden went on National TV and announced the Government’s intention for Gun control and possible confiscation. It wasn’t about the guns; it was never about the guns. It was about the ammunition. While everyone scrambled in PANIC MODE to buy up all of the guns they could possibly have, the government was working in the back ground buying up all of the powder, casings, and overall materials to make ammunition. Now when I want to purchase ammo for my AK47 I have to buy it one box of 20 rounds at a time. The same goes for most other rounds as well. You may be able to get them off of the internet but you have to remember that Big Brother is watching. And by the way, those stock piles are slowly drying up as well.

I didn’t tell this story to get everyone to go out and start buying ammo. That is a choice you have to make and falls into your belief system. I told the story to show how Panic can be made to work against you in ways you would not realize until it’s too late. I’m a practicing believer and do participate in my 2^nd amendment rights. I have all of the fire arms needed and as soon as the firearm frenzy started. I purchased ammo and have built my stock to the recommended amount. These specifics can be covered in another letter if the readers decide they want me back.

Panic is the mind killer someone said to me in the military. It makes you jump before you think, it makes you scream before you realize you have given away your position, it endangers your family before you realize you have stepped one way or another leaving them unprotected. Learning not to Panic is a difficult thing to do. It’s a matter of being able to put all noises, actions and everything else aside in order to stick to the plan. A plan is a good plan as long as everyone is on the same page, there is a fall back place to co-inside and of course NO ONE PANICS. One of the best ways to learn not to panic is to practice all kinds of scenario’s indoors and outdoors while on camping trips and such.

2. The second thing is ORGANIZATION. We must be pre-organized. When we hear that that the gangs are down the street looting houses, or that the Socialist Government is knocking down doors, we have to be prepared in such a way as to give them something but not the things we need to survive. What we will not give up is our water supply, our food supply and our firearms. Find a place to hide the firearms. There are several hide away tubes on the internet that are water proof that can be purchased at a decent price. They are placed in the ground long ways down so that a simple flower pot can cover the top with a little soil. Good for firearms, dried food, etc. Many other ways are possible such as simply digging in the middle of a very large bush, lining it with plastic and then covering it with dirt and plants.

This is where we start treating the gangs and the Government differently.

We will start with the gangs. There is a saying. A person is a kind gentle soul, willing to help, trust worthy and good. People are viscous cruel, have no thought for human life and lose all control of themselves when in a group, gang, and mob. To handle this kind of situation it would be necessary to camouflage your home to start with. How do we do this? Make the house looks like it has already been ransacked. Throw old clothes in the yard along with old computer parts that can’t be of use any longer, One of the five TV’s you have in the house, cheap food scattered around the yard, etc. If it looks like the gangs are not going to get too far with your house, they will most likely move on. It is still required to hold guard in your house and I will discuss this in another letter if requested. If a life has to be taken, the reaction is different that with a Government agent.

Now for the intrusion a Socialist Government group. The trick here would start off like the beginning of the above written. Hide your firearms, ammo, anything that can be looked upon as stock piling etc. A Socialist Government is against stock piles of food and water. They are Big Government and want total control of their people. The best way to do that is make is so people are dependent on the Government for life sustaining goods. As FYI – Farmers are paid over 10.6 million dollars in this country NOT to farm. Why? So that the Government can have more control over food and prices.

Once your survival things are well hidden, turn on the lights on the front porch, have the door open if you have a second door, and welcome them in. You want to be irritated a little but not afraid to let them in if they want to come in. You are a law abiding citizen. You have full trust in your Government, you have nothing to hide. Keep a single shot 410, a Shot gun for hunting and maybe a 22 pistol or two in the house for them to find because too clean is a red flag as well. Watch your ammo. Don’t forget about the ammo. If you have a 410, a 12 g for hunting a 22 pistol and a 9mm for CCW. You really don’t want them to see the 1000 rounds of 223 or 7.62’s and the case of 12g wad cutters may be a giveaway.

Organization is a huge Key to survival. If you have things hidden and can’t get to them right away, stay hidden or work smart to gather those things first make sure you – DON’T PANIC and then you remain ORGANIZED to your plan. Two way radios are perfect. Shortdistance and can be used to communicate with members of the group. (Remember when it comes to the use of radios. Every time to Key the mike on a radio, someone especially in the military can get closer to point your position. We can talk about proper use of radios if you have been back.

3. Try to have your NETWORK OF PEOPLE around you that you trust. A phone call from someone who is five minutes away saying “they are headed your way” could be a life saver. In a bad situation, five minutes could mean the difference between freedom and living in a Fema camp. Myself, I will be hiking to a pre-determined area to meet up with others that believe as I do before I let my family sit behind a fence in a Fema camp.

This is where you should be setting up your trusted groups or militia type of group. I bring this up now because of the above listed. If the Socialist Government is knocking on your door, that is the hint to load up and start grouping with your mates. At this point in the game there is no longer a United States of America. We would be living in a United Socialist States of America. For those of you that believe different or believe it would not be so bad, I pray for you and hope your life is as you wish it to be. Myself, I have traveled the world and have seen the Government in action. I want no part of them. Finding your group now, forming militia type of entity and learning, training, teaching each other is the key to survival. I always say – Power in numbers. This is true to a certain extent. But look at it this way. 100 people standing in the street with a bunch of sticks can be pretty powerful. But imagine 100 people who have studied urban warfare armed with everything from 12 gauge shot guns to AR 15’s and AK47’s. That is true power in numbers. No one is out to cause harm but makes it very clear that self-defense is priority.

This is where your training maybe once a month with each other is priceless. Your Network of People or Militia has to start training. Let’s say for example, you all decide to hike north toward the mountains. You find what seems to be an old house and would like to stay and rest for a day or so. First you need to take the house. A 2000 square foot house should be cleared for safety in less than 12 seconds. This without shooting one another but watching each others back. Then a perimeter has to be built quickly fast and in a hurry. Either with fencing, farm equipment, digging fox holes, sand bags, etc. People are selected to hold watch and everyone takes a turn. Etc. How can this take place so fast? With a Network of people (a militia) who is ORGANIZED, practiced, trained and do not PANIC every time the wind blows. You may be able to drive a ways but hiking will be involved so exercise those back and legs.

I live in North West Florida and unable to Find a Militia Group to Join. So I depend on my Family and a few friends. My family consists of my 11 year old son. 16 year old daughter, my wife and I. We practice tactics when hiking in the mountains whenever we get a chance. My son Carries a 9mm carbine, My daughter carries a 9mm carbine and a Cross bow, My wife caries a 40caliber Carbine and a 45 colt and I carry an AK 47 with a 12 gauge on my back, a 40 cal Glock, a 380 around my ankle and a 40 caliber carbine. We practice concealment, short commands, jungle warfare, urban tactics, hand to hand tactics, etc. And by the way. My daughter is an expert shot with her rifle as well with the Cross Bow. You Ask – Cross Bow? An arrow will penetrate a sand bag bunker when a bullet can’t. Used widely in WW2

Three things we should know in the event of home invasions during possible government takeover (Marshal Law) or Economic Collapse such as the one that is knocking at our door right now.

1. The first thing and one of the most important things – DO NOT PANIC. Panic serves two things. First it is a tool used to catchyou off guard so that you are not where you should be and the other is meant to instills in us a since of false hope. I put this first on the list because it is the first offensive push, be it civilian or military; that they will attempt to try.

This is where we start treating the gangs and the Government differently.

FEMA’s New Religious Weapon

2013-05-06T10:47:00.000-05:00

A Closer Look at Unconditional Obedience of all Government (as perceived in Romans 13)

A nuclear warhead, packaged and delivered by North Korea, detonates miles above nowhere, Kansas. While the folks in the area shield their eyes from the blinding light and gust of wind, no one is harmed by the blast. However, there is another killer from inside the explosion that was released. The electromagnetic pulse shuts down every electrical component that was plugged into the power grid, most cars are stopped on the roads, radio stations broadcast nothing but static, and the U.S. is time-warped back to the Stone Age. Economic supply lines grind to a halt, and now entire cities are left with no utilities, clean water, or food. The American domesticated society has been rendered helpless.

When better of a time for the U.S. federal government to declare full-fledge martial law and suspend the natural-born and unalienable rights of its citizens? History also shows us that when a population loses its liberties, the government rarely ever returns them until there is a total regime change. While liberty lovers will argue that there is no excuse for such a swift and complete consolidation of tyrannical power, the feds have a religious weapon that can argue their own case: the FEMA Clergy Response Teams.

Informed Americans can easily see through the deceptions of tyrannical entities that never let a crisis go to waste –to do things that they would not otherwise have been able to do. However, there are many others who will look to their pastors for guidance. Many of these pastors, especially those in “mega-churches,” have been briefed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency to preach on a very specific topic when all hell breaks loose.

According to a news report from KSLA 12, certain pastors that were recruited into the FEMA Clergy Response program will be preaching on Romans 13:

For the clergy team, one of the biggest tools that they will have in helping calm the public down or to obey the law is the Bible itself, specifically Romans 13. Dr. Tuberville elaborated, “Because the government’s established by the Lord, you know. And, that’s what we believe in the Christian faith. That’s what’s stated in the scripture.”

But, what does the Bible actually say about such matters? Should “we the people” simply allow the U.S. federal government to suspend the Constitution and Bill of Rights? Is a civilian resistance or disobedience an action that is sanctioned by the Bible? Let’s have a look.

Romans 13 states:

Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God’s wrath on the wrongdoer. Therefore one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God’s wrath but also for the sake of conscience. For because of this you also pay taxes, for the authorities are ministers of God, attending to this very thing. Pay to all what is owed to them: taxes to whom taxes are owed, revenue to whom revenue is owed, respect to whom respect is owed, honor to whom honor is owed. [ESV]

The Bible states that the magistrate is a minister of God, and to defy them is to defy God’s servants. This is always absolutely true, as this principle is what keeps the citizenry safe from anarchy. The government must have the power to take life, the power to tax, and the power to control, if it is to maintain law and order.

However, the prime function of a constitutional republic is to protect and preserve life, liberty, and property for its citizenry. It is a government of laws and not of people, meaning that even the government is subject to the law of the land: the Constitution. This is what sets the U.S. apart from Rome (when Romans 13 was written).

Rome was governed by men– by Caesar. It was the decrees of these men that preserved order in Rome. In this modern era, America’s form of government is far superior to that of ancient Rome’s, because the U.S. Constitution does not allow for the abuses of power that were often perpetrated by Roman leaders. It is written law, which keeps oppressed minorities from experiencing the horrors of an American Coliseum.

Thus, in the event of a hostile federal government takeover through martial law, it is those folks in positions of power who violate the law. This brings us to another difference between Rome and the U.S.: In Rome, the state’s subjects possessed very little political power. In the U.S., the citizens possess one-third of the state’s power, as the Constitution and the government possess the rest. The U.S. was set up so that all actions of federal, state, and local governments are subject to the approval of the people. It is from the people where the ultimate governing power flows.

This classical understanding of government actually originates from England and as far back as the Magna Carta Libertatum of 1215. This is why a government of laws protects its citizens, and a government of men makes the citizens into subjects.

Knowing this, Romans 13 reads in a very different way. It is the population who is in authority over the government, not vice versa. So, when the government violates the Constitution and the will of the people, then this is when a counter-revolution is necessary to reinstate law and order. The government itself has become the criminal faction and needs to be reformed or abolished and replaced.

Sadly, the FEMA Clergy Response program is full of pastors who do not value the Constitution or law, but would rather take the cowardly, convenient route. They’ve bowed before the federal bully, hoping that it will pick on someone else for now.

While some still claim the Clergy Response program to be a myth, they were in fact used during the Hurricane Katrina crisis. If martial law was enacted here at home, like depicted in the movie “The Siege,” easing public fears and quelling dissent would be critical. And that’s exactly what the Clergy Response Team helped accomplish in the wake of Katrina.

It’s easy to recall the news reports about how the federal government deployed troops in American city in order to round up the legally purchased guns of the law-abiding citizenry. Reports stated that the Clergy Response Team in New Orleans kept warranted public outcry at bay, allowing the government to wreak havoc upon the God-given second amendment liberties of fellow Americans.

To follow Romans 13, it would have been incumbent upon the local clergy to speak against such a violation of established law. Liberty is not a privilege. It’s a mandate that is to be protected by the government. If the government no longer accomplishes that job, then it is no longer a legitimate government, and Romans 13 no longer protects and empowers the operating criminals within its bureaucracies. It is then up to local authorities to mobilize against the encroaching tyranny.

If you find that your pastor is apart of the FEMA Clergy Response program, then alert your fellow churchgoers to the danger at hand. These shepherds will fail you when you need them most.
