I'm mad as hell, and I’m not going to take it any more!
If you are not of the same mind, or some version thereof, then you have either been asleep for the last six months or a “closet” Marxist. The left is clearly out to prove to the world that the “beauty of their utopian dream is so powerful that it drives the very evil of their practice(s) to achieve that dream." What does that mean? It means that the Left will do and say virtually anything to advance their cause. The problem is that Republicans don’t have the guts to respond in kind and don’t play dirty. They know they can walk all over us!
For my part, and I would guess many of you are of the same mindset, that we could simply wait for the Biden Administration to self-destruct, because as is typical of the Left, they are never satisfied and will never give up the pursuit of their impossible utopia. Anything they do, any lie they perpetuate, any lives they destroy are justified by their bizarre goals and dreams. Conservatives (Republicans) in the meantime have always assumed that politics occurs a few weeks every two years or so and, in the interim, want to be left alone to live their lives. Unlike the Left we actually respect others and tolerate differences.
Then Donald Trump appeared on the scene and gave us courage, a mission, and backbone and actually called out the Left for what they are. That’s why they hate him so thoroughly and us, as well, and why, while President Trump is on the sideline, we need to double down if America is to survive as “the last best hope of mankind”.
The damage inflicted on this country in such a short period, is unprecedented and may be irreversible as damaging policies and outright defiance of the Constitution are coming from every direction at once. That makes it difficult to fight particularly when our elected representatives for the most part not forcefully speaking out, to call the Left what it is, to challenge every insane proclamation, executive order, or policy that simply ignores Constitutional restrictions and American values.
Clearly our Representatives have not shown the courage to speak out and fight back or are simply asleep at the wheel, content to be a highly paid back bencher. It is so much easier to be a content loser than to stand and fight.
Let me summarize, the Left has or intends to:
Open up America’s borders to illegal aliens at the peril of law-abiding citizens, shower them with free stuff to make them permanent leftists and future Democrat voters;
Pack the Supreme Court to legislate from the bench and ensure conservatives lose every decision
Gain DC Statehood to add two new liberal Senators and a another House member to permanently control Congress
Defund the police and put Americans at the mercy of criminals
Establish Federal control and assure corruption of elections while taking away States’ constitutional rights to control presidential elections
Abolish the Electoral College to insure Democrat election victories
Remake American social values including; indoctrination of children from very young age, destruction of the family unit, indoctrination and racism in the workplace and military and erasing the distinction between men and women.
To indoctrinate American children from a very young age to hate the country and its founding principles. We can see this at all levels of our education system. Note that in the Olympics no other country’s athletes publicly display hatred for their country and its flag. Only US athletes seem to be motivated to openly show hatred of the country that provided them the opportunity to compete.
This is not everything. There are too many obvious examples to list here, such as; allowing the Democrats to jail conservative rally participants without bail and for unlimited periods without charges (clearly unconstitutional); Ignoring immigration laws and the release of virus carriers throughout the country while citizens have to take shots, wear masks and avoid crowds; the appointment of a Secretary of Defense (a defender and cheerleader for BLM) who is clearly out to destroy the American military, while the Chinese prepare for war, our military leadership stands down the entire US armed forces to indoctrinate the rank and file in Critical Race Theory, in essence to hate the country they are sworn to defend while leadership debates about the design of maternity flight suits. I guess no one told them that pregnant women cannot fly in jets unless they want to abort their fetus with “g-forces” normally experienced in advanced fighter aircraft.
It is obvious to patriotic Americans that the deep state is alive and well and entirely corrupt. This is especially dangerous to democracy when the FBI, CIA, DIA, NSA, DOJ, etc are thoroughly corrupt because they can use the law and the illusion of state security to suppress freedom.
Yet Republican leaders have been mute and have not done one serious thing to expose and clean out the cesspools these agencies have become.
Time to get mad as hell is NOW!
