"For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence -- on infiltration instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, economic, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations." ~ JFK, 4/27/61, American Press Association speech
I think by now, we've all figured it out: a good Republican in the Biden administration's hive mentality is essentially a Democrat! Otherwise, you're semi-fascist, an Enemy of THEIR State, and it's only theirs, make no bones about it, which is looking (and acting) like the very thing they're accusing the other side of being... typical Alinskyite Marxist redirection...
I can’t believe this is a real photograph. It depicts the president of our nation, as he took to the airwaves and spoke about his fellow citizens as if they were sewer rats. pic.twitter.com/bWYxHJfqTa
Nothing screams unity like a backdrop of blood red lighting and Marines positioned behind Biden as he shouts with raised clenched fists from the podium. pic.twitter.com/ZkjUPGF0WN
Two things struck me as the most egregious of all the lies and misrepresentations out of the mouth of our worst president ever.
First. "This is not who we are." "That's who we are; that's what we believe." "That's who we truly are." At least three times, he pretended to be "one" with Americans.
He doesn't speak for me. He doesn't have a corner on the soul of America. Obama tried the same tactic. Talk about how America is in sync with you and supports your policies, then enact policies most Americans oppose and suffer from. Say one thing and do another. In other words, lie every time you speak. Pump up the greatness of America while systematically weakening her. Tell Americans how great they are while fighting every legal battle against their best interests.
Second. The abuse of the United States Marine Corps. May the two Marines in the background for the worst speech ever given by a sitting president forever remain anonymous.
Joe Biden is not a man who loves America. He is a man who loves himself, and the power to impose his will and waste our hard-earned taxpayer money. His history of corruption has been exposed and his incompetence displayed to the world. No matter how many lies he tells, or how often he tells them, he cannot make them true. He is a disgrace and an embarrassment to all Americans who love our nation.
It also became painfully obvious that Biden, his administration, and the Democrat Party at large, speak to us as if Trump is still the President... because they KNOW he should be! They know they didn't honestly win the 2020 presidential election, and their unaltered strategy of demonization further proves it. The colonel noticed the same:
The divider-in-chief, the man known for his history of plagiarism, corruption, and lies upon lies, tells the nation it's his duty as president to tell the truth, and then he lies again. "MAGA Republicans do not respect the Constitution, they do not believe in the rule of law, they do not recognize the will of the people. They refuse to accept the results of a free election."
That's when it hit me. He knows. Then he mentioned the votes of 81 million people, and I felt sick. It's not just a speech to influence an upcoming election. It's not just a campaign speech against his most likely re-election opponent. It's not just a nationwide screaming insult to half of the electorate. It's another dirty, brightly burning lie to distract from the ever-increasing evidence of the fraud that put him in office. He knows he's illegitimate, and in the fraction of his capacities remaining, he needs to keep telling the lies so he'll keep believing them.
And I don't think anyone missed what he did NOT mention...
Things Joe Biden didn’t mention in his divisive speech last night: Inflation, gas prices, crime, the border, energy, jobs, opioids.
He’s too busy condemning half of the people he governs as threats to democracy, to talk about issues hurting working-class Americans.
Joe Biden has no claim to the soul of America, because (to echo McCarthy) he doesn't even understand the soul of America. But make no mistake, he and his semi-authoritarian elite want absolute control over each and every one of your souls. They'll utilize every facet of their conscripted system to seize everything if they're allowed to.
If you're not willing to let them steamroll us with their fullbore fascism, the first step is to show up in November like never before.
I have ventured to make this point before. Do not take the bait. The people running this clown show would like nothing better than for some exasperated citizens somewhere to do something violent, stupid, counterproductive, or all three. How much mileage have they gotten out of the disorderly mess of J6? You want to give them more mileage? You think they need something else to flog to death?
If anyone on our side were to set up some optics that were 1/100th as bad as what the president did the other night, the media bloodhounds would chase him to the levee and back, like he was some exhausted right-wing racoon. When the president does something as atrocious as what he actually did, that same media will carry him to that same levee and back. You call this unfair? Of course it is unfair. They are your enemy, and are not going to fight your battles for you. Stop whining.
And, more to the point, stop giving them material. When you go to the country courthouse to register to vote, do not do it with an AR-15 slung over your shoulder, even if it is legal in your state to do so. And don’t mistake me, it ought to be legal in your state, and you have the right to register to vote that way. One of your sacred freedoms is the right to be an idiot. But between now and November, you actually ought to be doing your best Quaker imitation.
It is time to vote out every last Democrat, the likes of Machin and Sinema included, and when that is accomplished, and the broom put away, we can start talking openly again. Show us your AR-15 at that time, and we will admire it then.
Sound advice: Don't take the bait, but give it your all with a sound, prayerful mind and a single, peaceful appendage come November.
Before we're out of August and into September, a few covid quibbles to deal with...
And here's that NPR piece, which in addition to linking to the CDC's revised guidance, specifically states:
It also brings the recommendations for unvaccinated people in line with people who are fully vaccinated – an acknowledgment of the high levels of population immunity in the U.S., due to vaccination, past COVID-19 infections or both. "Based on the latest ... data, it's around 95% of the population," Massetti said, "And so it really makes the most sense to not differentiate," since many people have some protection against severe disease.
Yet, we still have corporations across America continuing to openly DISCRIMINATE against employees who chose not to take the jab for the myriad of practical reasons.
Meanwhile, the MSM continue to suppress reports of ailments and deaths due to the experimental vaccines, even when those numbers have risen extraordinarily (and note, this is just what's been reported to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System)... instead, if a word of this is even uttered, we get the dismissive oh-well-covid-killed-more line, if you're one to believe that you can trust those numbers...
And despite those same mediaphytes, Joe Rogan and Aaron Rodgers recently spoke more TRUTH about the covid witch-hunt, the invasiveness of the authoritarian campaign, and the outright LIES sold to the American people...
Here’s Aaron Rodgers and Joe Rogan discussing Covid lies from “experts” and CNN:
“They said if you get vaccinated you can’t spread or contract the virus.”
Finally, I'm in agreement with millions when we say 'good riddance' to the arbiter of this misery, Tony Fauci, as he's set to resign in December (for obvious reasons), but it mustn't be a complete farewell. There's still this thing called accountability to attend to...
In January, a GOP Congress should hold Fauci fully accountable for his dishonesty, corruption, abuse of power, and multiple lies under oath.
Never in our nation’s history has one arrogant bureaucrat destroyed more people’s lives. https://t.co/NafUFpXnbl
Pending Republican will to do so of course. But considering the covid coup murdered millions, might I advise them to follow through on this one for the livelihood of their own political longevity.
ADDENDUM: Speaking of Rogan and covid, the Hodgetwins recognized some recent advice from the podcaster, as well as elaborated on the mishandling and actual misinformation involved with the entire politicization of the virus and vax, that contribute to this discussion...
I was just thinking of posting about this great piece by Michael Anton entitled, "They Can't Let Him Back In", when as if on cue, 90 days out from the midterms, the DC Establishment pulls this crapola! Now that's well worth the read, and I'd encourage you to do so, but what's just happened today seems to supply further evidence towards that piece, and in a piercing way. WIth midterms rapidly approaching, they're still attempting to preserve power in Congress by-any-means-necessary, just as they're still trying to slay the dragon before the next two years creep up. Spiteful little miscreants. And they've just outraged a MASSIVE amount of people with this unjustified move...
“Prosecutorial misconduct, the weaponization of the Justice System, and an attack by Radical Left Democrats,” is on the money. And these power-hungry partisans are turning this beautiful nation into another Third World hellhole. These are absolutely dark times, and have been ever since that illegitimate election was sealed.
Bongino had more than a few words for this uncalled-for raid...
So did Levin if you heard him tonight, explaining that THIS IS THE INSURRECTION!
With the midterm elections 90 days away, the timing of this search warrant into Trump’s vault stinks like a political vendetta from the Russia Hoax to impeaching him when he was already out of the office, to the illegal unprecedented January 6th committee, to this raid.
1. The Biden Administration raid on former President Trump's Florida home is a bald attack on our republic. The Democrat Party is dragging us into the Third World.
3. This an unprecedented act of state-sponsored lawlessness. Millions have rightly lost faith in the DOJ, FBI. media, and Congress, and this is beyond anything I can ever recall.
And where the hell is the Senate GOP leadership? McConnell, Cornyn, Thune, and Barraso?
JUST spoke to @erictrump, nothing in the safe, FBI agents 30 approx raided on behalf of nation archives …This is outrageous- has to have come from @POTUS and/or someone in White House.
FL Gov. DeSantis had some choice words for this happening in his backyard (too bad we didn't have a Huey Long moment where a governor threatened to have federal agents arrested by the National Guard!)...
The raid of MAL is another escalation in the weaponization of federal agencies against the Regime’s political opponents, while people like Hunter Biden get treated with kid gloves. Now the Regime is getting another 87k IRS agents to wield against its adversaries? Banana Republic.
One might see this as a distraction from the Senate Democrats' passage of the fallaciously named"Inflation Reduction Act" spending $800 BILLION on "God knows what," as Biden put it, pushing us further towards a depression. However, they're actually pretty proud of that, so what's to distract? But what the unDemocratic Party is certainly doing here is shoring up its one-party rule in DC, attempting to affect the outcome of the opposition party's presidential election processes before they even start, curtailing and controlling what they've been accomplishing through broadcast news propaganda and debate spectacles, to now flex their authoritarian muscle through a weaponized federal agency that has been hyper-politicized and used to cripple opposition. Compound that with the 2020 steal, and don't be surprised when some have already started asking if this is our political Lexington and Concord (or at the very least, Fort Sumter)? But it certainly gives credence toward the calls to dismantle such federal departments if they're going to be used in such partisan-attack fashion.
These are dark times, distressing times. And we MUST confront them, take them on, and conquer them... for the sake of our republic, and for the prosperity of our progeny. May Providence guide us always.
ADDENDUM:Cruz had a similar take as Levin, Deace SCORCHED Scott over his tepid "play out" comment to CBS, and strangely enough, even Democrats like Cuomo & Yang see this providing the precise proof that Trump has insisted its been about all along: him against a corrupt government establishment! So after the feds invaded his home in yet another politically motivated witch hunt, the Don released his most powerful video yet, listing the ways our country has been "in decline" in only two short years. This is a MUST SEE...
Here's the lowdown so far on the raid and more, but one thing of crucial importance to remember...
November is coming...
ADDENDUM II: And here's how they're heading into the weekend (I'll abbreviate to get this out quickly)...
From Director Wray's comments, the obvious framework is revealed: Because the Democratic Party has so weaponized federal law enforcement against political opposition, and in turn pissed off a whole segment of society, these partisan mouthpieces are turning it on us, and the narrative is gonna be that it's Trump's fault, vis-à-vis our fault.
So, they're gonna claim that he was planning on selling nuclear secrets to Russia. Always back to Russia, Russia, Russia! All the while hoping to draw more wingnuts outta the woodwork to attack more federal offices, so they can crackdown harder and go full Stasi on us. And whether the nuts are ours or theirs (and we normally find out that the latter is typically the case), it doesn't matter, we know who the media will say they belong to. We're all enemies to them now. Back to the Country Class vs The Ruling Class. Dont believe me?
Guilt before innocence from another unelected, hyper-politicized bureaucrat of the deep state. But that's not a violent reaction at all! It's all becoming so predictable.
Meanwhile...
UPDATES: Late follow-up, but here's what all has happened throughout the last weeks of August...
"Objects of the most Stupendous Magnitude, Measures in which the Lives and Liberties of Millions, born and unborn are most essentially interested, are now before Us. We are in the very midst of a Revolution, the most compleat, unexpected, and remarkable of any in the History of Nations." ~ John Adams, letter to William Cushing, June 9, 1776
On this 246th anniversary of America's independence from tyrannical governance, let us for the first time in 50 years, celebrate our first right!
While we celebrate this every year, this Independence Day is special because for the first time in nearly 50 years unborn babies around this great country will actually get a chance to breathe the same air we breathe and live! The dark shadow of abortion still lives on in some states, but for much of the country that darkness has turned into light. So while you’re out celebrating with friends and family today, say a special thanksgiving for the Supreme Court overturning Roe v Wade and for the President who made it happen.
And as November rapidly approaches, let us never forget the vigilance and prudence of our unalienable second right exercised to protect the first...
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed."
Of course the most peaceful means to institute new government is at the ballot box, albeit minus the corruption we experienced a few short years ago. We must vigilantly continue to secure such just powers from the consent of the governed, not a cabal of elites who wish to rig the system and thwart it.
Prudence has indeed dictated that the protection of Life is absolutely no light or transient cause. It's unfortunate that mankind is more prone to suffer evils we've become accustomed to, rather than to right them. However, by the regenerative Grace of God in guiding our nation's destiny, we can thank Him on this Fourth of July celebration, while continuing to pray for the prudential use of our Liberty towards His Providential guidance this fall in instituting new governance, ultimately benefiting our indelible pursuit of Happiness.
Mississippi for the win! And Trump of course, but we all know every bit of this is in the Almighty's Hands. We thank Him for guiding the Supreme Court in handing down their ruling that might finally stymie the decades-long generational genocide of would-be Americans, by declaring the Truth that “the Constitution does not confer a right to abortion.”
The Supreme Court on Friday overturned Roe v. Wade, effectively ending recognition of a constitutional right to abortion and giving individual states the power to allow, limit, or ban the practice altogether.
The ruling came in the court's opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which centered on a Mississippi law that banned abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy. The Republican-led state of Mississippi asked the Supreme Court to strike down a lower court ruling that stopped the 15-week abortion ban from taking place.
"We end this opinion where we began. Abortion presents a profound moral question. The Constitution does not prohibit the citizens of each State from regulating or prohibiting abortion. Roe and Casey arrogated that authority. We now overrule those decisions and return that authority to the people and their elected representatives," Justice Samuel Alito wrote in the court's opinion.
This comes after a rare, historic leak to Politico of the court’s draft opinion earlier this year, drawing protests from pro-death activists at the homes of originalist justices and even an assassination attempt against Justice Kavanaugh. Here's the decision that overturns prior Roe and Casey rulings!
THE SUPREME COURT HAS OVERTURNED ROE V. WADE, ELIMINATING THE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO ABORTION.https://t.co/ZNYRs3QnpJ
Also this week, the SCOTUS ruled that states cannot deny public funds to religious schools, that Miranda warnings are just that (the protection, not the right itself), that voter ID laws can be defended, and that conceal-carry is a constitutional right (even in NY). All exceptional rulings, but this one that came today is a real game changer, and God-Willing a course correction for our troubled nation.
LIFE, our first Declared unalienable right as an Independent people in a free nation, should always be held sacred. With every indication of the progressive Left's reaction, their violence begets more violence, but this was nonetheless the right and proper call. 63+MILLION pre-born deaths since 1973 (19+MILLION disproportionately from the 14% of our black community by-design) has been cataclysmic for America's culture, and constitutes nothing short of a holocaust.
However divisive and abhorrent, the practice of abortion will still exist. Yet, this ruling now passes the decisions of how that practice is or is not offered back to the States respectively, or to the People, as it should have been all along. And for many of us, our prayer is that this decision effectively ends such a destructive human practice altogether. But for now, on this feast day, ALL Thanks Be to GOD.
Almighty God, who sittest on the throne judging right; we bless and thank thee for the courts of justice in this land that thou gavest them wisdom and understanding to discern the truth, and impartially administer the law in the fear of thee alone. We thank thee for the outcome that they have rendered to preserve the unborn in this land. Give grace to our State Legislatures to preserve the life and liberty of all, and to enact laws upon the best and surest foundations, that peace and happiness, truth and justice, religion and piety, may be established among us for all generations. Through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ do we render our thanks and praise, Amen.
ADDENDUM: Sunlight may be the best disinfectant after all, particularly in regard to an honest perspective versus a dishonest media over the past several decades...
Today is the day where once again we stop to remember those who went before us, who fought and died in the service of this great country.
I know that this country has changed a lot over the years, for better and for worse, and that sometimes it seems we have enemies all around us trying steal our most basic freedoms away.
But regardless of what we might be going through now, that doesn’t diminish in any way the sacrifice our family members and brethren gave for this country, America, which is still the greatest country in the world.
While physically remembering their sacrifice is a wonderful thing on a day like today, the best way we can honor them is to keep fighting, in our on way, to protect the liberties for which they fought and died.
The American Left are sick, noisy people, who never cease to score political points. Always focused on stripping more liberties away from the law-abiding for the sake of the children we're told, while promoting the abuse of our kids in the public schools with sexual perversions and propaganda, conducting their depraved contraceptive practices that have resulted in a preborn holocaust of inexcusable proportions, or in this latest horror, amassing visceral pleasure from the politicization of 19 murdered children due to what's become more apparent over the course of the week as a combination of police malfeasance, poor school security, and an utter failure to identify a threat. There were massive mistakes that have Texans livid, but have little to do with getting caught up in political theater, and everything to do with augmenting how we keep our most precious human commodities, our children, safe and secured...
Missed warning signs
Following a spate of mass shootings in Texas, the Uvalde school district invested in social media monitoring, campus police, and teacher training to prevent future tragedies. These early prevention measures did not flag 18-year-old gunman Salvador Ramos as a threat, even though he talked with numerous classmates and strangers online about guns and school shootings.
No officer on campus at start of shooting
Despite the Uvalde school district investing tens of thousands of dollars in security and training for an active shooter in recent years, no school police officer was on the scene when Ramos arrived on campus.
A mistaken tactical call and 19 officers waiting nearly an hour
Once Ramos was inside the school, officers made a crucial tactical error and temporarily considered the active shooting stage of the incident over, believing a barricaded standoff would begin instead. As a result, a group of as many as 19 officers stood in a hallway outside the classroom where Ramos was inside slaughtering students, waiting for backup and tactical equipment.
Stopping one SWAT team, and another going absent
Even once elite reinforcements with gear like ballistic shields arrived, there were delays. ... Specially trained agents with the force’s Bortac SWAT team drove from the US-Mexico border to assist responding officers in Uvalde. ... The group was baffled why local officers told them to temporarily wait, according to the newspaper, and unsure why the Uvalde PD’s own SWAT team was not already on the scene.
Failing to find a key
Eventually, a group of Uvalde police, federal agents, and county deputies did prepare to breach the classroom where Ramos was hiding. They would’ve done so sooner, but the door into the room was locked... Border Patrol agents were only able to get into the room once a school staff member got them a key, raising questions about whether the school had common security features like a master box of room keys accessible to law enforcement—or whether police thought to ask.
Keeping parents in the dark
As all this was going on inside the school, parents were massed outside, where they desperately pled with heavily armed officers to go inside and save their kids. Instead, some were harassed, handcuffed, and tased by police on scene.
Some might look to reflect on the degradation of our public servants over the past few years, and how we're left with such caliber of uncertainty, particularly with regard to the brass. Perhaps it's also worth looking at how all the early indicators were missed in an era of censorship and cancellation over political discourse, while missing the real threats to our civilization. Time after time, these lunatics crave an attentive audience and telegraph intentions (no social media head's up to authorities?). While still others wonder why every school in America doesn't have armed, on-duty resource officers as staff members in an obviously more deranged era ever since Columbine. That speaks not only to the questions of mental health in our young Americans, but also their spiritual health of lost identity in a lost culture. Definitely failures on numerous levels with devastating consequences.
But simultaneously with the reports of the massacre, the Left launch the narrative. It's constantly about the gun for them, and not the twisted mind of the person wielding it. The Left immediately begin their misinformed protest parades, spouting off how there have been 27 mass school shootings just this year, when there's actually been 13 SINCE 1966, NOT THIS YEAR ALONE. But this fallacy is repeated just like the myth that the US leads the world in mass shootings. Again, FALSE. Facts don't stop their media pundits or political elites from spreading the lies, though, because that might disrupt their narrative on control and shine a light on the actual problem of evil.
We as a People must better prepare for it, recognize the indicators, communicate, and be willing to stand up to it without hesitation. It's never gonna be ideal, but the time for mistakes must be over for the sake of our progeny.
ADDENDUM: After Uvalde, the latest media narrative has been to soften what a mass shooting is to include inner city gang parties and biker gang shootings (much of what they never report on, ironically), particularly over Memorial Day, and attempt to equate those to these massacres committed by a lone gunman, all while continuing to push the lie that these occurrences are only an American problem, ignoring the factual data that shows otherwise, and also continuing to ignore the astonishing rise of mental illness (inclusive of pathological rage, undiagnosed ailment, family collapse, and the culmination of all these factors) over the past few decades, always in favor of disarming the citizenry instead.
Also, this question that I've had from the start continues to remain a mystery that the at-large media seems unconcerned with...
From a Wendy's salary? Something doesn't square about that burger. But even so, it might've helped if someone had just said something, because many saw the hints dropped. This is a critical area where we have to do better.
Wow, how this week started... and it makes me wonder...
So, that SCOTUS draft opinion that leaked Monday evening, yeah, THAT is what actual treasonous insurrection looks like, America!
For all the left’s cries of “threats to democracy” and “insurrection” about things like uncensored speech on Twitter or literally walking peacefully through a door, what happened Monday night appeared to be a far truer and more dangerous example of treasonous insurrection.
A purported first draft of the Supreme Court opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson, overturning Roe v. Wade and its protection of a woman’s legal ability to kill her baby, was leaked by an unknown source to Politico in an all-out attempt to agitate chaos and undermine the U.S. Supreme Court.
It seems obvious the leak was intended to incite fury with the potential to pressure the justices into changing their final votes, to push Congress to try to codify Roe, and to pressure Joe Biden to rush to pack the court. The justices and their families are now targets for threats attempting to sway their decisions, and the 2020 summer of rage is surely recent in the bench’s memory. Politico as good as admitted the leak’s coercive purpose:
Deliberations on controversial cases have in the past been fluid. Justices can and sometimes do change their votes as draft opinions circulate and major decisions can be subject to multiple drafts and vote-trading, sometimes until just days before a decision is unveiled. The court’s holding will not be final until it is published, likely in the next two months.
The Supreme Court is one of the few American political institutions whose authority is still widely and bipartisanly recognized, although Democrat chatter of packing the court last year has already eroded it. Such a leak is an outright attack on the court’s gravity and process, the justices’ trust amongst each other, and the rule of law.
If you want to find anything in America’s recent political memory that fits the bill of actual insurrection, look no further than this. Undermining the judicial process in such a calculated and consequential way is textbook insurrection, defined by Merriam-Webster as “an act or instance of revolting against civil authority or an established government.”
Neither speech on Twitter that challenges the regime’s narrative nor the events of Jan. 6, 2021, pose nearly the threat to the legitimacy of the U.S. government that this attack on our highest court of law could.
A swift investigation and prosecution of the leaker is obviously in order. Will it happen? The cynic in me knows by now the passes that one particular party and its operatives receive over the other by both unelected executive departments and the lapdog media (a real travesty that lawlessness isn't measured the same across all political lines). I hope this will be different, but I can't say that doubts aren't high when a rogue administration currently operates the levers of government.
That being said, there's much larger implications at play here, perhaps hard ones to talk about in our hyper-politicized sensitivities and rabid cancel culture; nonetheless, we need to be honest and confront these things for the evils they are...
For decades, the American left has furthered its agenda via leftists on U.S. courts. Thus, in order to get their way on a wide array of issues — abortion, marriage, LGBT issues, immigration, and the like — Democrats have not had to win elections. They merely needed control of the courts. With right-minded originalists replacing authoritarian leftists on courts throughout America, the left's hold on state and federal courts (much credit to President Trump!) has waned. This is especially true with the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS).
Given their obsession with sex, among leftists no issues are held in higher regard than abortion and anything related to the perverse LGBTQMYNAMEISLEGION agenda. Sexual perversion has become a sacrament among the modern left, and tens of millions of the most helpless and defenseless among us have literally been sacrificed in the name of "Do as Thou Wilt" in the sexual realm. Because they've been unable to get it done legislatively, much of the American left's agenda accomplishments on these matters have happened via U.S. courts.
Thus, the American left's vitriolic reaction to the egregious leak of a supposed SCOTUS majority opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson — which would overturn Roe v. Wade — should surprise no one. The leak was almost certainly a political stunt intended to intimidate pro-life justices, politicians, and citizens alike. This is what those who have made a god of government do. The left should take note: what the government giveth, the government can take away.
When one makes a god of government, virtually everything gets politicized. When most everything is politicized, much gets perverted. To keep their evil agenda alive, the left must constantly distort, deceive, and demonize. This was on clear display after the Dobbs opinion leak. ...
The idea that reversing Roe would end "access to abortion" in the U.S. was a common refrain among the hyperbolic left. As many on the right side of this issue have long pointed out, this is nowhere close to the truth. Even if Roe is finally overturned — because such a decision would merely return the matter to individual states — tragically, throughout much of America, abortion will remain as legal as it is today. Many Democrat-dominated states have been expanding their abortion laws in anticipation of the fall of Roe.
The anger on display by leftists after the Dobbs leak is revealing and scary. A recent Mollie Hemingway encounter at the Supreme Court was sadly not that uncommon:
Keep thinking about an abortion supporter I encountered the other night at the Supreme Court who screamed -- almost as if possessed -- "KILL THOSE F-CKING BABIES!" Such hate-filled extremism -- particularly compared to previous mantra of "safe, legal, RARE" https://t.co/H62fSM8hsY
Given the wicked Summer of Rage that we witnessed in 2020, none of this should be taken lightly. Additionally, the left is now directly threatening conservative Supreme Court justices. As Breitbart reports,
Justices John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Amy Coney Barrett, Samuel Alito, Brett Kavanaugh, and Neil Gorsuch are all targets by an organization called, "Ruth Sent Us." The organization has published the justices' supposed home addresses online for the radical protestors to locate[.] ...
The website also asked protestors to "rise up May 8-15 and beyond[.] ... At the homes of the six extremist justices, three in Virginia and three in Maryland." The site says the main protest is scheduled for May 11.
Again, none of this should be taken lightly. We've seen the awful consequences of leftist policies on plain display for years now in the Democrat-dominated cities across America. Arson, thefts, assaults, murders, and the like have exploded where leftism rules and leftists abound. If given enough cover by their allies in the drive-by media and the Democrat party, I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see violence visited upon conservative justices.
However — and let this be a lesson to you, John Roberts — this is not a time for weakness! The left cannot be appeased. It must be defeated — politically, spiritually, and so on. The best defense against leftists' rampant evil is the light of the truth, whatever consequences it brings.
Just as America, through all its struggles, has been the exception in the world when it comes to liberty, democracy and economic freedom, so to has our human experience as citizens of such a unique country given us the exceptional opportunity to lead towards the light of truth and away from the lies of darkness. Though sinfulness is built into our human nature, if we're honest with ourselves, we know inherently that our conscience recognizes right from wrong, light from darkness, righteousness from sin. Just as we all inherently know that this leak is a threat to democratic governance, we also know that the blight of unabated abortion has become unsustainable (to the tune of 63+ MILLION since Roe v. Wade in 1973, and 1.65+ BILLION worldwide since 1980).
We can be compassionate towards our fellow man struggling through the evils of the world (as we all do), while combating it, turning hearts and minds away from it, and God Willing, extinguishing one of the most grievous.
Apologies. I inadvertently took April off for Easter, but that's kinda important in an eternal way, so a much needed refresh. But we can't allow April to fly by without talking about Elon and The Deal.
Seems to be all the buzz for the better part of the month, particularly the latter half as the deal approached evermore certainty. From the comedy of Sears and Dice (and you better believe theBabylonBee) to the analysis of Brand and Rogan with their patented sarcasm, everybody's gotten in on this goldmine. And BOY, have the crazies gone from freakout to meltdown to pretty much revealing their hand in say, something like the last election...
This is exactly what the Machine\Left\Democrats have done to their opponents for years, you absolute 🤡 @AriMelber.
Remember the rule: they'll always accuse us of doing what they've already done.
All of this not over free speech, but the adherence to its censorship and control of any/all narratives, mind you. Peculiar how progressive Twitter accounts lost followers, while conservatives gained within days of Elon's purchase, isn't it Ari? It's like the dials were suddenly turned back. James thought so too...
At the end of two days of #TwitterFreedom I’ve added 73,000 new followers.
I don’t think anybody has fully grasped the devastating impact the pre-election suppression of free speech has had on our nation. #ThankYouElonMusk
One thing the left is particularly good at is euphemism. Stalin made his bones as a Bolshevik thug by robbing banks in order to fund the revolution; they called it expropriation. Now the obviously desperate Progressives are pounding the table, demanding that we masses be protected from the scourge of misinformation that's poisoning our minds. Only public statements that are approved for their content by progressive partisans should be allowed to have influence. Hmmm...sounds like censorship to me.
This romance with censorship is nothing new. Back in the 1970s, after an unusually contentious local election, then–San Francisco supervisor Dianne Feinstein proposed an ordinance that would make it a crime to include a false statement in a political speech. Although I was still a registered Democrat at that time, I couldn't help but wonder what kind of Star Chamber would have to be empaneled to rule on every single political utterance.
As this is being written, Elon Musk's total takeover of Twitter has just been made official. It's within the realm of possibility that he could take a page from George Orwell and rename it The Ministry of Truth. Just kidding.
Uhh, hold on. No sooner than those words were written did the Biden Admin prove they weren't kidding about a Ministry of Truth! Newspeak, anyone? How hellishly Orwellian of 'em...
A federal speech czar? Just as the Founders imagined it, no doubt.
Earlier this week, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told Congress that his agency is creating a "Disinformation Governance Board" to combat "misinformation" coming from Russia as we near this year's midterm elections. The Biden administration's new Committee on Public Information will be led by Nina Jankowicz, "a disinformation fellow" who, perfectly enough, comes to the administration from a think tank named after Woodrow Wilson. Like Wilson, Mayorkas, himself a font of untruths, does not explain under what constitutional power he proposes to oversee speech.
It gets tedious to point this out, but you can vividly imagine the thermonuclear meltdown the country would be (rightly) subjected to if a Republican president assembled a government panel tasked with weeding out "disinformation." To our technocrats' dismay, this isn't Europe, where the state can dictate allowable speech and sometimes arrests those who don't abide. Here, citizens are the ones who call out the state for peddling misinformation, not the other way around.
The pro-censorship Left, which is to say the vast majority of contemporary Democrats, now have Barack Obama on board as well. The one-time neoliberal champion of free speech -- a freedom he employed aggressively to mislead the American people when it served his partisan interests -- alleged during a recent Stanford University speech that "people are dying" from misinformation. And, you know, if censorship can save one life ...
In case you didn't catch that, here's the ridiculous ninny the government is trying to put in charge of regulating OUR speech:
...which is as good a segue as any to wrap up the discussion concerning the Left's hypocrisy on this...
Lurking below all of this is leftists' palpable lack of desire to defend their opinions. As Ayn Rand's fictional John Galt stated in his laying out of Objectivism, mystical ideas are the enemy of civilization. Feelings are supposed to have more weight than logic. Take climate worship, for example. There are forces that we will never understand...that are conspiring to destroy our world...unless we destroy them first by strangling the economic basis for modern life.
Standing in the way of this impending disaster is that pesky thing called common sense. Humanity didn't make it this far by not being able to make good decisions. Adversity may not be pleasant, but it can be instructive. Add to this the modern facility for the transmission of information. It started with cheap paper and web printing, then radio, and then TV. Now there are the internet, cell phones, and satellite coverage. Bottom line: It's virtually impossible to monopolize information. Hence the panicked demand for what really amounts to censorship from those who've lost their monopoly.
I mentioned earlier about controlling the narrative... keep in mind, half of these guys that I'm referencing throughout this are not conservatives. They are however believers in open, honest, free debate and opinion. When not even a liberal is safe, this is how far the radical left have lurched in their concerted effort towards total control. It's why you've got a guy like Elon Musk who's made to feel like this:
