Secretary of State Marco Rubio gave another outstanding speech at the Munich Security Conference. It shook up the European leadership by reminding them of the dangers of communism. He did this because his grandpa, Pedro Víctor García, a refugee from Castro’s Cuba, taught him well about the dangers of communism.
Controversy continues to swirl around the Save Act. 92% of Republicans and 71% of Democrats support the legislation. Despite this almost all Democratic politicians refuse to even debate the merits of the Act. Any commentary from them is emotion-laden like “voter suppression”, “Jim Crow 2.0”, “misogynistic”, etc.
As has been noted by many intelligent people, if we want our country to remain a bastion of liberty, voter ID is a requirement. How did America arrive at this predicament where rampant fraud is part of our election cycles?
Something that I saw making the rounds on Facebook that describes in horrifying detail what we have been seeing in this country. This was a movie from 1942 that depicts what the Democrats have been doing for a long time. It was called Keeper of the Flame.
Every time a conservative points out how the progressive Democrat left is actively engaged in eroding American traditions, norms, and governance—bordering on or venturing into insurrection—the screaming begins.
“Trump! Fascism! J6! J6! J6! J6!”
It has taken on the form of a mystical incantation to protect the speaker from challenge.
In 2015, the Obama White House awarded Tom Homan the Presidential Rank Award. President Obama bestowed the award himself. That’s the highest honor a federal employee can get. The official citation praised him for removing 920,000 people in three years.
Law and order don’t collapse all at once. It is eroded one issue at a time. It usually starts small like not having a regular order of business for funding our government. The last time that was done in this country was 2006. One might call it normalization of deviation. It is laws left unenforced. What we’re watching now in Minnesota and in other areas of the country aren’t random protests. It is a coordinated effort to delegitimize institutions, intimidate Americans, and replace the rule of law with mob rule. This is a repeat of what America saw in the “Summer of Love” in 2020.
Churches disrupted. Witness the recent actions in St. Paul. Courts smeared and threatened. Witness judges and their families being shot and assaulted. Police demoralized. Police knowing that despite doing everything right, they may be sacrificed on the altar of wokeness. Their families may be placed in danger from howling insurrectionists.
America has always had two major parties, sometimes even three. For most of our history, we argued hard, debated honestly, and still loved this country together. Real Democrats worked for a living, paid their taxes, raised families, sat in church pews, respected the flag, and wanted their children to grow up safe and free and have a better life. Just like real Republicans.
During a recent visit to Minnesota, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent sat down for an interview with journalist Christopher Rufo. When asked about the annual cost of fraud to the federal government, Bessent estimated the figure at between $300 billion and $600 billion — roughly 10% of the U.S. government’s yearly budget.
“That’s not my number, that’s the General Accounting Office,” Bessent said. “So, it’s about 10% of the federal budget, 1 to 2% of GDP.”
“And, if we can narrow that number, President Trump asks for a $500 billion increase in the defense budget to fortify the 10, 20 years of neglect … If we can get rid of this fraud, waste, and abuse, we can finance a safer, sounder U.S. without taking on more debt.” ...
The eruption of astroturfed outrage over the self-defense shooting by an ICE official is a redo of a familiar pattern. We have seen this before. Starting with Trayvon Martin, graduating to Michael Brown and Freddie Gray and George Floyd, the organizers of these “protests” are being paid. Their job is social disruption. This is all part of the communist playbook to take over this country.
There are always cells just waiting to be activated. Unfortunately for the Left and perhaps fortunately for the country, the weather is not conducive right now to get a lot of the brainwashed to venture out. Minus 20 degrees can do that.
