Mark Caserta: Federal Law Enforcement working only to resolve Democrat open border policy.

27 Jan

I’ve written commentary for 25 years, long enough to realize I can’t change many minds over any emotional issue.

But let’s be clear in analyzing the situation.

The only reason ice agents and border patrol agents’ presence in our cities is heightened at this time is because liberal Democrat politicians have opened our borders to millions of illegal, unvetted individuals – period.

These illegals take refuge, largely, in sanctuary cities where their needs are provided at the expense of the taxpayer.

Some of these individuals entered the United States because they are criminals and have, sadly, continued their criminal activity in the cities.

Notably, many of these individuals did not come into this country to commit crimes, but committed a crime by coming into our country illegally.

When sanctuary city leadership does not comply with federal law-enforcement, it is very difficult to identify the hardened criminals from the ones who simply did not follow our immigration laws.

This situation forces ice agents to have to scour communities looking for and vetting criminals, which can be unsettling.

Our law-enforcement agents are not here to foment violence, quite the opposite. They are here to protect our citizens and enforce our laws.

Sadly, sanctuary city leaders are emboldening, and often paying protesters to insight violence and obstruct this process.

Even sadder, is the fact that some of these individuals want to incite a shooting so it can be captured on a cell phone and used to build an illegitimate argument against law-enforcement.

We are a nation of laws made by our elected officials. These officers cannot pick and choose which laws to enforce. They are here to serve and protect.

And they deserve protection in the process.

Let’s bring the heat and the rhetoric down. Let’s dispense with the conspiracy theories and allow our law enforcement agents to do their jobs.

These very law-enforcement people whom some would denigrate, are the first people they would call in case of an emergency.

Finally, this is not a move by the federal government to create a police state and move toward a monarchy.

This is simply an effort to remove people who are here illegally, with the primary focus on the criminal component.

Working with law enforcement will bring down the emotion and enable the process to be looked at through a much clearer lense.

Working against law enforcement who are simply enforcing the law, set in place by the people we elected, will only prolong the current state.

Mark Caserta: Divided, we lose. It’s that simple.

17 Jan
Mark Caserta is a candidate for West Virginia House of Delegates 28th District- Wayne County

Fact: 76 million people, 312 Electoral college votes, 7 swing states and 90 percent of all counties voted, in part, for Donald Trump to end open borders and protect our nation’s sovereignty.

We were dying as a nation. Illegal immigration was slowly overtaking our country with an estimated 20 million unvetted illegals pouring into our country during the Biden administration.

Every single state, every single race and ethnicity moved toward the right and voted for common sense in stopping this insanity. They were tired of woke, failing policies that were causing America to fail on many levels to include healthcare, education, jobs and the rule of law.

Also understand, we are a nation of immigrants – LEGAL immigrants. If anyone comes to our country illegally, they have committed a crime – period. The argument that conservatives are against immigration is inaccurate and often leveraged with intellectual dishonesty.

One must understand congress makes the laws that protect our nation. These laws include immigration laws. Law enforcement agents do not get to pick and choose which laws to uphold. Their job is simply to enforce them.

If you truly love America, stop fighting and work together to make a positive difference rather than create more division. If we plan to have a viable future for our children, we must be united.

Leaders who compare law enforcement agents to Nazis or challenge their authority are emboldening protesters to risk their lives.

Where was this anger and dissension when innocent victims like Laken Riley, Rachael Morin and Jocelyn Nungaray were brutally raped and murdered by illegal immigrants? Have you researched the brutality of these murders?

Why do we make the choice to fight more for the criminals than we do for the victims? Is that really who we are? Is that the rule of law we want for our children?

There are evil forces at work here attempting to divide our people. We MUST choose NOT to allow that to happen.

Good choices are never made out of emotion. Good choices are made with wisdom, temperence and prayer.

Let’s do the exact opposite of what the enemy would have us do.

It’s a great time to remember the civil discourse Charlie Kirk modeled for us.

Let’s be Charlie Kirk

Pastor Mike Lewis: Opioids: Weapons of mass destruction – Battle begins at the border.

15 Jan
Mike Lewis is a pastor and businessman who travels the world serving others

Opioid addiction destroyed an entire generation of sons, daughters, parents & families. We didn’t see it coming – it was a fraud perpetrated on Americans by big pharma

Now, since 2021 fentanyl has killed an average of 300k Americans a year, mainly driven by open borders allowing the flow from China but sold by cartel members

6.5k children in WV sit in foster care because their family is dead or detained

Another 4k sit with kinship family members because their parents are dead or detained

300 kids a night sleep in hotels & offices because there is no room in the inn

575 kids from WV live out of state because we have no special needs centers to house them

WV is last in workforce participation 

48/50 in national education rankings 

47/50 in early mortality 

I have spent 30+ years serving those who had no hope until we introduced them to Jesus – food, clothing, counseling, housing, training, relocation, abortion decision change and more

I have buried +100 sons, daughters, parents & my own brother as a result of illegal drugs and hopelessness drive by addiction driven by open borders pouring fentanyl in

When you have a solvable problem like open borders and removing illegal criminals from our great country- you do it. You do the hard work. The unpopular work. The work that will save another generation from death & detention 

I have traveled to 86 countries in my career – know what they all have?  A secure border

I have been detained by machine gun weilding border agents in India, China and El Salvador all in their attempt to ensure their border laws were followed.  Me, an American executive working for an $11b corporation providing thousands of jobs in their countries 

We are called to protect the widows & orphans. WV leads the nation in both. 

I’ll die defending them. My last breath will be in defense of babies & families and in favor of the removal of those who are here to kill, steal and destroy them

If your spiritual resume is similar then we can sharpen each other. If the only thing you have done is type keyboard quotes then lay down the phone and pick up a servants sword and make a change not a charge

A warrior for WV!

Mark Caserta: Author Brian Sexton provides insight into personal growth through stimulating positive beliefs – A must read!

16 Dec

“I believe Brian wrote this book directly from his “servant’s heart” to help us realize we can achieve positive results not by attempting to “mold” others into who we feel they should be but rather encourage them to embrace who God has called them to be and follow His direction. I believe people are starving for encouragement and self-worth. Brian’s message delivers! This book will make a superb gift for someone you love!” – Mark Caserta

Intentional Encouragement: The One Thing That Changes Everything

by Brian Sexton (Author), Damon Burton (Foreword)

Order Brian’s new book here! or clink on graphic below!

 What do you believe about yourself? Intentional Encouragement isn’t about affirming thoughts. It’s about stimulating positive beliefs. Thoughts and opinions are easily changed to societal acceptance. Beliefs are hard-wired, developed and harnessed through years of life experience. What you believe drives every part of who you are, what you think, when you act, where you take yourself, why you do things and how life progresses or regresses for you. Learn to stimulate those powerful positive beliefs and you change your thoughts, convey clear direction and eliminate negativity that derails momentum.
You will understand how Intentional Encouragement is: Internal; Invigorating; Necessary; Original; Targeted; Normal; Enlightening; Anchoring; Natural; Liberating; Timely

PRAISE FOR INTENTIONAL ENCOURAGEMENT
When I was a little boy, I asked my dad what his company did. He said, “Son, we sell hope and encouragement!” Dad also said, “Encouragement is the fuel that powers hope.” The world needs hope and encouragement now more than ever. Here’s the truth that Brian Sexton uncovers. You cannot give something you do not have. Brian says it best, “You can’t pour into anyone from an empty bucket.” Fill that bucket full of encouragement by devouring this book. As Dad knew, Brian knows that everyone needs encouragement. Intentional Encouragement is the perfect guide to understanding how you can get that encouragement for yourself so that you can encourage others. The world needs an Encouraged you!
Tom Ziglar, CEO of Ziglar Inc and proud son of Legendary Speaker and Sales Trainer Zig Ziglar

Intentional Encouragement by Brian Sexton addresses a critical yet often overlooked aspect of personal growth and fulfillment – the power of self-encouragement. Each of us has innate positive beliefs about ourselves, but we struggle to consistently access and nurture those beliefs. Our goals are powered by stimulating our positive belief system. When you believe, nothing stands in your way. This book provides a roadmap for readers to start and sustain a practice of self-encouragement. Brian’s purpose and authenticity shine through. This book will make a meaningful difference for you in seeking to cultivate more positivity, resilience and possibility in your life.

Mark Caserta: Leftist policies lack common sense

10 Oct
Mark Caserta is a political columnist and editor for Free State Patriot

Look around you.

Look at the liberal, leftist agenda and what it means to your children and your children’s children.

Are you comfortable voting for someone with these beliefs on their resume?

  • Naked men in women’s locker rooms, fully exposed and glaring at your daughter? Some of these men even with facial hair?
  • Supporting Illegals who rape, murder and commit other crimes in the U.S. with your tax dollars?
  • Your tax dollars spent on ludicrous liberal agenda programs such as male circumcision in Mozambique?
  • Biological men allowed to compete in women’s sports simply because they identify as a woman? Science is irrelevant.
  • Eliminating all words that historically apply to a male amd female, and requiring employees to take diversity training so you know which pronoun to use when addressing others?
  • Running political campaigns on socialist ideology and contrary to the our Founding Fathers?
  • Encouraging violence against anyone who disagrees with the leftist viewpoint – even to the point of celebrating death if it helps their cause? Pure evil here.
  • Sacrificing American safety and prosperity simply because Democrats hate our president more than they love our country?
  • Supporting the murder of millions of innocent babies in the womb simply based on an inconvenience and the denouncement of life upon conception.? These same lunatics would claim life on other planets if a telescope found a microbe? Huh?
  • Shutting down all fossil fuel production and raising prices on Americans based on the myth of man-made climate change?
  • Removing any semblance of God and His Holy Word from all public areas of our lives?

Do you really want someone who supports these idiotic ideas representing you?

Well, every single liberal Democrat politician is in this camp!

Frankly, if these lunatics have their way, we won’t recognize our country. In fact, I’ll go as far to say that’s the very goal – fundamentally change America!

It’s time for some common sense representation.

Mark Caserta: Government shutdown threats are result of years of fiscal insanity by our elected officials

30 Sep

“We are from the government and we’re here to help”

NOT!!!

Historically, politicians have attempted to hide their desires to raise your taxes.

Historically, politicians have attempted to hide their socialist tendencies.

Historically, politicians have at least “attempted” to “appear” they are representing their constituents.

Historically, politicians at least attempted to “discuss” what’s best for the country.

But the political theater has changed. Fiscal responsibility isn’t important. It’s given way to financing liberal agendas.

Capitalism is being attacked as the problem, not the roadmap to the American dream.

Politicians act as if they don’t even know how a Republic works, much less give it credence.

“What’s best for the country” has succumb to what’s best for party.

Frankly, I’m beginning to feel better when the government is shut down and only essential services are covered.

So much seems to be hidden from the American people, it’s difficult to determine the best approach to governance!

But when liberal Democrats want to use my money for transgender studies and DEI training in other countries, for example, it isn’t difficult to understand that they DO NOT have my best interest at heart.

It’s time for a common sense approach. President Trump is, by far, the most common sense driven leader we’ve had in Washington in my lifetime.

If the choice is between shutting the government down or continuing to frivolously spend my hard-earned tax dollars for outlandish, ridiculous pursuits???

I say, shut it down and learn how to live as most Americans do –

Within our means!

Remember, when you vote, you are essentially planning for your financial future. It requires education and planning.

Failing to plan is, well, you know, planning to fail.

Mark Caserta: Liberals will destroy anything if it means returning to power.

25 Sep

“Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour”. 

——————-

Let me be clear. I’m unapologetic about calling out evil.


A late night host was suspended 4 days and liberals claimed it was an infringement of his First Amendment rights.


Charlie Kirk was shot while exercising his First Amendment rights and the liberals shouted he deserved it.


I’m sick and tired of liberal hypocrisy.


People are dying because of the left’s rhetoric, yet they blame conservatives and Donald Trump.


Following George Floyd, cities were burned and looted. They called them mostly peaceful.


Following Charlie Kirk, cities prayed.
Liberals chose not to participate.


Whose rhetoric is causing the death and chaos?
The, progressive, liberal left.

Liberal politicians are intentionally fanning the flames of discontent attempting to reframe the narrative. They know they cannot possibly win in the exchange of sensible ideas and debate, so they are playing the role of antagonist in fomenting hatred and fear mongering.

The liberal left is hoping that if they can bring Americans to their knees in the face of fear and danger they can then blame it on President Trump and win back your vote.

All of this destruction simply to return to power.

To hell with your safety and livelihood. They believe you’re too ignorant to know what’s best for you and your family, not that it matters.

If it stands in the way of the progressive power grab, it is the enemy and must be destroyed.

Liberals will destroy your children’s mental health if it means staying in power.

Liberals will destroy the economy if it means staying in power.

Liberals will destroy our nation’s sovereignty if it means staying in power.

Liberals will destroy our political system if it means staying in power.

Liberals will steal, kill and destroy if it means staying in power.

All that matters to the left is winning – at any cost.

At your cost, more specifically.

Recognize it and defeat it.

Revival fire is upon the U.S.!

Mark Caserta: Donald Trump: The Presidential Art of the Deal

4 Aug

Democrats are collapsing beneath the weight of Trump’s wins!

Most politicians “over promise and under deliver” during their campaigns and into their role.   They’re totally comfortable doing so, as it seems to be enough to get many of them elected. Their “model” if you will, is to grab the attention of the voter and subsequently hope that the success rate of their promised accomplishments will not be tracked. 

Some campaigners use a “smoke and mirrors” strategy, aiming to exceed expectations by consistently under-promising and over-delivering. Unfortunately, this positions the elected official to be able to maintain the status quo without ever having to put forth any real effort to improve their skills in representation. 

President Donald Trump has an altogether different approach.  This skilled negotiating businessman chooses to make his promises based on common sense and the reality of the moment, then he is committed to exceeding everyone’s expectations!  This inevitably forces him to “up his game” to over deliver on attainable promises, which he does time and again.  As a builder, he was always on time with his project and under budget! 

This attitude is what makes President Trump unique, both as an individual and as a commander-in-chief. 

I just started my third time reading his book, “Trump: The Art of the Deal”.  Donald Trump doesn’t drink, he doesn’t smoke, and he certainly doesn’t take drugs.  In fact, he hates to take medicines altogether!   

President Trump gets his kicks by making deals, and the bigger and more difficult the deal, the better!  As the leader of the free world, he is now using those skills he has mastered and employed since he was 27 years old, on behalf of the American people. 

Democrats cannot keep up with him. By the time mount a defensive posture on an issue, President Trump is already three deals ahead of them.  The absolute only position liberals can take is an “anti-everything” Trump, which has given them the lowest approval rating in history. 

Let’s face it.  Democrats will do or say anything to see Donald Trump fail.  Frankly, as seen in recent headlines, it doesn’t matter if it means loss of life or damage to our nation!   

Liberal politicians are being exposed by their offenses.  Our nation was in a downhill spiral during the Biden presidency, and they were completely fine with it!   Control and power are their master motivator!  Democrats have totally abandoned the ideology of our Republic. 

I’m taken back each time I hear a political pundit refer to Democrats as the “Democratic Party”.  Democracy left Democrats years ago!  The term “Democratic” is an adjective describing this group of lost socialists.  They are simply the Democrat Party! 

In this columnist’s opinion, we are blessed as a nation to have a president committed to exceeding our nation’s expectations!  He is bringing our nation back to common sense and back to God.   

I expect, given his success, Democrats are going to be miserable for a very long time. 

And that’s a good thing for our nation which is, once again, winning!

Mark Caserta: Obama presidency could have been great.

23 Jul

If he had only loved America

Barack Hussein Obama was a U.S. president from January 20, 2009 to January 20, 2017

There are many direct correlations to be made from the Obama presidency to the state of our union pre-President Trump.

Barack Obama had an opportunity to unify our country as the first African American president. He chose, rather to be the divider-in-chief and fuel racial discrimination in the US.

He also chose to leverage the office of the president to wield our justice system as a tool to remain in power and disenfranchise American voters.

Remember his world “apology tour” immediately upon assuming the presidency? He used the tour to diminished the premise of American exceptionalism!

I submit the Obama presidency could have been one of the greatest presidencies in our history – if he had only loved our country.
