RAPID RESPONSE...Daily Commentary on News of the Day
This is a new section. It will offer fresh, quick reactions by myself to news and events of the day, day by day, in this rapid-fire world of ours. Of course, as in military campaigns, a rapid response in one direction may occasionally have to be followed by a "strategic withdrawal" in another direction. Charge that to "the fog of war", and to the necessary flexibility any mental or military campaign must maintain to be effective. But the mission will always be the same: common sense, based upon facts and "real politick", supported by a visceral sense of Justice and a commitment to be pro-active. That's all I promise.

THE TOPIC FOR TODAY IS THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE U.S. CONSTITUTION, ITS RELATION TO "FREE SPEECH" AND VIOLENCE. 
 
In recent years, we have seen too many examples public Violence masquerading as "Free Speech" - and getting away with it.
The most recent example is occurring now in Los Angeles.
 
The First Amendment protects "...the right of the people Peaceably to assemble..." 
 
The USSC has addressed this matter on several occasions, prohibiting violence and "true threats" as protected speech. 
Although I have access to several texts on the Supreme Court and Constitutional Law, a Google search is very helpful.
 
See: "FIRST AMENDMENT AND VIOLENCE AND SUPREME COURT".
 
BOTTOM LINE: The grossly threatening verbiage and also actions engaged in by mobs in cities through the country 
IS NOT PROTECTED SPEECH, SHOULD BE SUPPRESSED AND SHOULD BE CHARGED UNDER CRIMINAL LAW.
 
And the Democratic Party that is actively promoting these actions should be condemned and should be relegated to the 
national political trash heap for the next decade or longer. 
 
THIS IS DANGEROUS STUFF!

WHY SHOULD I, AS A PHYSICIAN, FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE ABOUT THE CURRENT BREAKUP BETWEEN PRESIDENT TRUMP AND ELON MUSK?
 
Because Musk is clearly a Patient.
One need only scan the Biography of Musk, published by Walter Isaacson in 2023, to witness in great detail the massive vulnerabilities this man has had to deal with all of his life. 
And - if this is an "authorized" biography - even the act of having authorized it would be a symptom of a very troubled although unique human being.
 
For me as a Christian and as a Physician: "PRIMUM NON NOCERE".

The Big Beautiful Bill Is Conservative Economics at Its Best

RR#1

THIS INFORMATION SHOULD LEAD TO CRIMINAL CHARGES AGAINST THE LEADERS INVOLVED.
And it should belatedly lead to the Excommunication of Joe Biden and to defrocking of the Catholic Clergy leadership that 
enabled the Scandal of Biden's retention as a Holy Communion - receiving "Catholic". 
 
GS

Joe Biden Had Entire FBI Targeting Pro-Life Catholics

RR#2

BEFORE SEEING THIS ARTICLE, I CONSIDERED THE WSJ JUST DOING WHAT IT DOES RE. TRUMP, THE "BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL" AND ITS BUSINESS SELF-INTEREST. AND I CONSIDERED ELON MUSK AS JOINING THAT CLUB AFTER HIS INTERESTS HAD TAKEN A BIG HIT.
 
But where were the likely balancing effects of Trump's Tariff negotiations and their effects on GROWTH with trading partners?
Well, here they are. 
 
So: give the Leadership that Americans strongly voted for A CHANCE.

Tariffs and Tax Relief—Trump's New Model for Funding the Government

WHAT FOLLOWS IS MY SON'S REPLY TO MY RECENT RR ABOUT "TARIFFS AND TAX RELIEF."
Stay tuned. "It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings."

GS

Hi Dad--you know I'll comment here, because, as a Real Republican, I believe--as it's always been shown true—that tariffs are taxes on Americans and Real Republicans loathe unnecessary taxes.  I'll skip discussion about tariffs on imports that Americans can't even make here and say that you--not "other countries" or "big business"--will pay the steel tariff tax when you decide to buy a new washing machine, so I hope you remember that.  Yes, it will probably put more steelworkers back to work, but making steel at a much higher cost in the form of American wages for those workers, and you will be paying that higher cost. 
 
To me, that's un-American.  We have been the most-prosperous country--in fact the "greatest" country--in the world since WWII mostly because of free-market capitalism.  These tariffs prevent free-market capitalism in America, and make all of us pay more for products made here and overseas.  Real Republicans know this.
 
And as far as reduction of the $32 Trillion national debt goes, Mike Johnson and Trump say the BBB reduce it.  That has never happened with lower taxes that will somehow "increase revenue", and the proof of my statement is that the national debt has increase every year since 1997 when Bill Clinton was president.  It's "voodoo economics", as George H.W. Bush called Reagan's economic plan during one of their debates, and he was right.

PASSED TIME FOR ANOTHER "POT POURRI", ALTHOUGH THIS ONE "STINKS"...A SIGN OF THE TIMES.

  GS

RR#2

NOW WE ALL KNOW THAT THE CHURCH TELLS US TO "TURN THE OTHER CHEEK".  
Of course I would do that...as i prepare to break his nose. 
 
GS

We all know Hollywood likes to take shots at Catholicism.
 
But I have to tell you about a recent instance that goes beyond the pale.
 
This past weekend, I sent a letter to Tim Cook, CEO of Apple Inc, expressing outrage over a recent episode of the Apple TV+ original series, Your Friends & Neighbors.
 
The episode features a man and woman casually breaking into a Catholic church, opening the tabernacle, removing a ciborium, and then proceeding to chat while snacking on the Eucharist, even smearing the wafers with jam.
 
For Catholics, that’s tantamount to smearing jam directly on the face of Christ.
 
And the actor in the scene is Jon Hamm. He was raised Catholic by a devout mother, so he knew exactly what he was doing. Hamm is also an executive producer on the show – an Apple original.
 
My letter requests the immediate removal of the blasphemous episode from the Apple TV+ platform and an apology to all Catholics for committing such a grave offense.
 
After all, Apple claims that they promote “a culture with a North Star of dignity, respect, and opportunity for everyone.”
 
We’ll see what Mr. Cook has to say. 
 
Stay tuned,
 
Josh Mercer
