"Somebody Knows"
After I'd published my discovery I was pretty famous, and the local school district wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to train some of their teachers. So they would send teachers to observe me in the lab for several weeks at a time to learn what 'real' science was like.
One case really sticks out in my mind. The teacher had watched me for several weeks, and finally asked me her burning question, "Why are you doing this experiment anyway? What can you do with the results?"
I explained that sometimes in science you do research just for the pure joy of exploration. To learn things that no one has ever known before. And that is usually how discoveries are made.
She said, "Why not just look it up in a book? It would be a lot faster."
I explained, "No one has ever done this experiment before, exploring this particular question."
She didn't believe me and insisted, "Certainly, someone knows. You just have to look it up."
Like we know everything already.
And these people are teaching science to our youngsters.

"A Missionary Vocation"
Many years ago I heard a Newt Gingrich interview about the dismal state of public education in the US. He said something that has really stuck with me. He said,
"We've convinced ourselves that we can teach people to be teachers. You can't. You're born with it—it's a gift. And teaching is a missionary vocation; it's a calling."
Our problem is that we've filled our public schools with baby-sitters instead of teachers. We've taught them to fill out forms and make displays on the wall. But they don't even really know their subject matter, they just regurgitate it from a book. They can't get the high-paying jobs, so they teach.
In the US, we educate 2.5 times as many teachers as there are teacher openings. The law of supply and demand dictates that teacher salaries will be suppressed as a result.
Furthermore, the average SAT scores of the teachers we produce are only slightly above average.
To fix public education, the first step is to set higher standards for teachers. It takes decades, but studies show that if we begin filtering now (top 10% only), our public schools will be dramatically better twenty years from now. Teachers would be paid more because they are in demand, and teaching would be highly respected as any other profession.

"Follow the Data"
I've been reading your comments, and I want to clarify something.
I don't have time to write a dissertation with every post. Sometimes, I just post data, or even just a graph as a benchmark. Coming up for air, showing you what I'm working on at the time. (I am deep in the heart of Texas right now!)
I love it when you comment or make suggestions. And seeing it up here, I often see omissions and make improvements.
I give dozens of public talks, and just about every graph I post is discussed in more detail in one of those talks. So if you need/want more explanation, that's a great place to start.
In the early days, when I wasn't giving so many talks, I took the time to prepare formal videos. Now, my time is more limited.

That's enough swimming for tonight. Off to bed.
I learned a good lesson about myself today. As much as I like swimming in data, I need time with people. The campaign kick-off tonight for Kim Georgeton was just the ticket.
And I got plenty of booster shots. (hugs)
It's no wonder they don't want us meeting together... when you get a bunch of patriots in the same room they can change the world.
There was also a young lady in attendance tonight who heard a talk I gave at her private school almost a year ago. She told me that my talk there had motivated her to become engaged in civics, and she is pursuing a career in political science when she graduates.
She's smart, she's a Christian, she's conservative, and my investment in her is making a difference. I like it when what I do has eternal consequences.
Wait... I need to introduce her to my youngest son!
G'nite, all. May God grant us all a peaceful, restorative rest so that we may serve Him well tomorrow.
O Lord, hear our prayer for our nation. Bring us to our knees. Amen.

I was interviewed by "Trent on the Loos" today. I'm going to be meeting him in person in Nebraska later this month. (I'll post the interview link after it comes out on Friday.)
There's an ongoing tiff between Angus and Hereford cattle ranchers, and we had some fun with it. It reminded me of this picture of me in high school...

"Impersonators"
If you've been on Telegram much you've recognized that there are lots of false accounts and scammers on here.
To be clear, I'm not selling anything, and I almost never communicate privately here.
So if you are receiving messages from me, especially trying to sell you something, it probably isn't really me.
The only thing I am pitching on here is the truth.
Cheers!

Phew!
Finished calculating every county in Texas... a big job. I found all sorts of serious issues which will likely make some TX officials pretty unhappy. I have to get up early tomorrow, so I won't be able to show you guys the results just yet...
Think of this as a teaser... I'm gonna be in Texas this weekend. See you then.
Yee Haw!
We are a sinful nation. I pray that God's love and grace may descend upon us like a gentle, healing rain as we fall to our knees and repent.
O Lord, hear our prayer.

I was reading this excellent piece as I was chilling before bed. I thought this paragraph was particularly excellent:
"Daniel’s integrity as a man of God gained him favor with the secular world, yet he refused to compromise his faith in God. Even under the intimidation of kings and rulers, Daniel remained steadfast in his commitment to God. Daniel also teaches us that, no matter whom we are dealing with, no matter what their status is, we are to treat them with compassion. See how concerned he was when delivering the interpretation to Nebuchadnezzar’s second dream (Daniel 4:19). As Christians, we are called to obey the rulers and authorities that God has put in place, treating them with respect and compassion; however, as we see from Daniel’s example, obeying God’s law must always take precedence over obeying men (Romans 13:1–7; Acts 5:29)."

“Scientific Evidence”
Good scientific method begins with humility. You admit at the outset how little we know, and appreciate the tiny footholds we have stumbled upon that give us a sense of understanding.
Science proves nothing. It is a process by which we iteratively gain insight into what is most probably going on. At any juncture, our entire paradigm of reality can be overturned by the results of a single experiment or datum.
You can’t know anything until you know everything.
Scientists who make strong scientific claims in public are often not doing science, rather politics. And science and politics do not play well together.
Einstein said, “Any scientist who believes his own theory ceases to be a scientist.”
There is a big difference between evidence and proof. I prefer to only use the word “proof” in the context of geometry, but it has made its way into the common vernacular and is often used sloppily.
Ironically, the producers of “Scientific Proof” did not consult me before assigning a title to the documentary that thrust my election work into the public sphere. But I’m not complaining; it makes sense in a public context.
So when someone says they have “proof” of something, it gets my hackles up. I prefer them to say that they have “evidence.” Reality is full of wiggle room.

“Widespread Fraud”
Let me be clear.
EVERY state experienced widespread fraud. The entire ‘election’ was manipulated nationwide.
I make this strong claim based upon compelling evidence... statistical, mathematical, electronic, and physical.
The shocking thing to me is that several senior election officials have acknowledged the widespread fraud to my face. But they are unwilling to admit it in public for a variety of reasons.
Too many of them gave access to our election systems in exchange for Zuckerbucks.
Too many of them are afraid they will be blamed.
Too many of them are choosing politics over justice.
Too many of them fear a constitutional crisis.
Too many of them hate Trump.
The blame lies firmly in our own laps. We the People have steadily yielded our country to institutions and individuals, rather than keeping it in our own hands, as designed by our founding fathers.
Now we have to clean house and take our country back, because those to whom we have relegated the power aren’t going to address the problems unless we empower them or replace them.

"Precinct Strategy"
It's human nature; we're lazy. If someone else is doing the work, then we are free to do what interests us.
And this is all fine and good, so long as the people doing the work have integrity and our best interests in mind.
But that's not what is happening. Bad guys are in control, and they have different interests than ours.
What is supposed to be happening in our country is that we each take our turn at government. We temporarily set down our concerns, serve a term or two, then back to our own concerns. But that is not what is happening. We're letting someone else do our work.
There is an easy way to begin resuming our responsibility. Serve as a precinct officer. There are massive vacancies everywhere. Check it out.

EDIT: About six states in the middle have the incorrect number of registered voters listed. The graphs are correct, but the numbers are mixed up. Interestingly, this happened because the US Census has a mistake in their data! It took me half the day to find it, and I still missed this one. It has to do with the alphabetical order when you have "Mc" at the start.

"Confidentiality"
I try to be careful to protect the identities of folks. Not everyone can afford to lose their job, or has the temperament for public exposure. Also, there are whistleblowers. Lots of them. But they are waiting for court protection before exposing their identities.
I protected Tina Peters' (Mesa County) identity from March to August, when she finally decided to go public. And if you've followed her story, you know that she and her associates are constantly being harassed by the media and her corrupt government officials. Most people don't want that kind of attention, especially when the courts are so corrupt.
People want me to name names. Sorry.
If I started doing that, people would stop trusting me. Especially public officials. And my work with them is important.
We are working behind the scenes in several places. And when the time is right, all will come to light.
In the meantime, please join a canvassing group, become a precinct captain, and keep pressuring your officials about 2020. They need to know that you know that they know that the election was fraudulent.

As I've been traveling the country over the past several months, some of my father's advice has been particularly handy.
One of the key pieces of advice he gave me I must have used a million times.
He said, "Son, never exaggerate."
