Most traditional families taught their children to tell the truth. When children were caught in a lie, they were in serious trouble. They would receive a spanking, washing out of their mouth with soap, or an immediate command to go to bed until further notice. Telling the truth was a major building block of the character development of a child.
Telling the truth is stressed in the Bible, the boy scouts, Rotary Club, and religious instructions. Being honest has been held as a virtue throughout American history. Lying has been viewed with contempt. A Godly, wholesome environment was seen as necessary to keep everyone on the straight and narrow path. Once a person was known as a habitual liar, they were rarely taken into anyone’s confidence.
A person who is a habitual liar can initially appear to be a very likable person. They learn the art of conning others by saying what people want to hear. Often the average listener is convinced what the person says is what they believe.
During times when evil is rising or in power, lying is a tool to control others. The truth can unmask a person’s attempt to appear different from what he pretends. Lying is a shortcut to impress others: to believe the individual has accomplished some good when it is just the opposite. Only a person with incredible courage, integrity, and conviction can confront a constant liar who must lie to cover up previous lies.
A courageous person with a strong moral code can bring down this type of villain, a vindictive evil person. In front of congressional hearings, two strong FBI whistleblower heroes, Greg Shapley, and Joseph Sigler, gave specific and detailed information demonstrating that the FBI hierarchy covered up Joe and Hunter Biden’s actions. Hunter Biden, son of President Biden, was immediately protected by many democrats who attempted to attack the credibility of these FBI informers. However, democrats failed to address how Hunter Biden was able to plead guilty to misdemeanor counts of tax evasion and only had to participate in a pretrial intervention which was a slap on the wrist. Any other person without these political connections would not have received such a sweetheart deal.
In the May 18th congressional investigation, three FBI whistleblowers testified about interference by FBI agency heads. Jim Jordan’s committee probed into Hunter Biden’s involvement with foreign companies that gave money for political favors and influence in the Biden administration. They have pointed out that Hunter Biden has been receiving payments for a number of years, and if the people paying were not receiving value, the payments would have stopped.
NY Democrat Jerry Nadler was disgraced when he accused two FBI whistleblowers of accepting $250,000 each for their testimony, which was untrue. Congressman Nadler alleged the money was raised by former Trump aide Kash Patel. However, Jason Foster, Head of “Empower Oversight,” a well-respected organization representing government whistleblowers, stated: “Nadler’s statement is untrue.” At this point, these FBI whistleblowers have lost their security clearance and have been ostracized by colleagues. Again, we are witnessing a two-tier justice system.
Our current political order mandates that a person who wants to get ahead must tell people what they want to hear rather than what is true. Anyone who knows the truth and tells it is dangerous to many people who live through lies. Falsifying who you are to appear as who you want to be is self-defeating. Sooner or later, the lies conflict with the truth, and people realize the person is living a lie.
People who tell the truth are considered dangerous since they usually are people who are honest with themselves. They are often unaware that their truth bombs can explode the profile that an individual has meticulously created with the assistance of others. False praise eventually collapses as the truth surfaces above the lies.
No matter how many liars attempt to protect the deceitful person, there will be new people who appear with true facts to counter the lies. New facts are added to the others, which becomes an avalanche of contradictions that buries the liars.
Powerful allies like the DOJ, FBI, IRS, and legacy media did everything to whitewash the Biden extortion practices for money. CNN and NBC devoted no airtime to informing the public what was newly learned about President Biden and Hunter Biden using government agencies to shield them and attack anyone who attempted to expose their crimes. As this process continues, the two-tier system of justice will be exposed, pointing out the corrupt and dishonest people in government and media.
Remember, if honest people stand up, it is not long before others will follow. It starts with a few courageous people with integrity then it catches fire. Those few special people are needed to put the USA on the right and honest path.
