The Coming American Crisis

Just watched video of Fox News' Tucker Carlson interviewing Hollywood actor/comedian/producer Rob Reiner, who recently released a video spot with Morgan Freeman that says America is at war with Russia...a cyber war.

It got me to thinking....

Every major nation on earth engages in cyber-war, including this country. Every one. Remember over a decade ago when the Stuxtnet virus was introduced into the top-secret, highly-'secure' Iranian computer network on which Iran was developing its nuclear program? That was the U.S. and Israel, working in concert to cause a major delay in Iran's production of fissionable, weapons-grade uranium-235, the key component used in construction of a nuclear device. Not being a computer geek, I still don't understand how that was accomplished, but it served its purpose. Stuxtnet was a very evolved, sophisticated virus that set Iran back at least a year.

A couple of weeks ago it was announced that Equifax, the mega consumer credit company, had been breached by hackers, exposing the personal information of 143 million Americans. Equifax, I am quite sure, believed they had a highly-secure network on which they stored this information. Our government websites have been hacked; worse, it is quite probable that highly classified information from the Central Intelligence Agency, Department of Defense and even the Federal Bureau of Investigation has been compromised, though these agencies would never publicly acknowledge breaching events of this nature.

Kind of scary, isn't it? Well, I'll make this prediction right now: Someone, at some point, will introduce some type of  delayed-action virus into our stock-market system which ultimately will cause the markets to crash in epic proportion...virtually destroying the economy of the United States. A disastrous event, to be sure, one that will bring this nation to its knees and render it vulnerable to enemies both domestic and abroad. Anarchy and chaos will rule the day.

I pray that I am wrongly painting this dark scenario but, with world events unfolding as they have, I fear it will happen.

Michael Isaacson, the ANTIFA Professor

You may have heard the name Michael Isaacson over the course of the last few days; if you haven't, here's what the John Jay College of Criminal Justice adjunct professor tweeted on August 29th: 'Some of ya’ll might think it sucks being an anti-fascist teaching at John Jay College but I think it’s a privilege to teach future dead cops.'

Let that sink in for a second.

'...teach future dead cops.' Here is a boy (I refuse to bestow the title 'man' to this individual) who earns his living instructing students at a criminal justice-based college who marginalizes the lives of law enforcement officers; it should come as no surprise that he also considers himself a leader in ANTIFA, the alleged anti-fascist rabble whose actions at any function or gathering even remotely associated with conservative values more resembles Adolph Hitler's pre-WWII brown shirts than that of a group opposed to fascism. Since his view on law enforcement officers came to light, Isaacson has been suspended by the college due to massive backlash from the public and police unions. Why he wasn't terminated immediately, as he should have been, I don't know, but Isaacson then took a bizarre turn and issued a statement calling ultra-lib New York City mayor Bill DeBlazio 'anti-police'.

Isaacson, as expected, is shielding his 'dead cops' tweet using the first amendment right of free speech. He does have a right to express his views, but here's the rub: there are consequences to that right, especially in light of where he is employed. Karol Mason, college president, placed Isaacson on administrative leave...only it was out of security and safety concerns for students over what the boy said, not the substance of his message.

And that, my friends, is deplorable.

Isaacson isn't fit to shine a police officer's shoes.
