We are in a very dangerous place. As I wrote last week, we are on the brink of
becoming Venezuela 2.0. What you have
witnessed was not a free and fair election, but a color revolution. It was well-planned, well-coordinated, and
well-executed, down to minute details.
After four years, of calling Trump a Nazi, what we are witnessing is
something as ruthlessly efficient as anything put together by the Third Reich.
The Radical Left has an overwhelming tactical advantage
right now. It will do things that
Constitutionalists will not do. Most
fundamentally, Constitutionalists, believers in the American Experiment and
American values believe in a vibrant two-party system. Even those of us that tilt right understand
that the Right can, and often does, go off the rails, that we must take into
account other considerations and other constituencies. The Radical Left no longer has any such inclinations. It believes in the righteousness of its
cause, harbors no doubts about them on any front—economically, socially,
politically. Therefore, opponents are infidel
equivalents (it is no accident that it has chosen to ally with Islamism) and
opponents must be driven from political, economic and social life. It is a totalitarian movement and its goal is
a one party system.
How do I know?
They’ve told us and they’ve been pretty explicit about it. They have told us directly that they wish to pack
the Supreme Court, end the Senate filibuster, do away with the Electoral
College and open the border. In other
words, kick over every structure that assures a two-party system and that the
other side has a voice.
What concerns me most?
Three elements: The
denial of reality, the granting of privilege, and most troubling, the
normalization of political violence.
Denial of Reality
The blatant denial of reality by political leaders (and the
MSM) has been simply stunning. Attempting
to create an alternative universe, governors and mayors claimed that the
looting, burning, intimidation and property destruction were “mostly peaceful
protests.” The rest of us looked upon
the dystopian images in stunned silence as New York, Chicago, Portland, San
Francisco and even little Kenosha were wrecked, their law-abiding citizens
cowering in fear as mobs ravaged the landscape.
We are now being told that there is not evidence of voter
fraud in this election. But no one with
a modicum of education in statistics is buying it. It is simply implausible that a man that did
not campaign and could not fill up a high school gym with supporters when he
did, is barely cogent, and lost support among people of color won this
election. The “badges of fraud” are
legion—counting mail-in ballots without signatures, swing states all shutting
down counting simultaneously, shutting out observers, districts with more votes
than registered voters. Taken together,
these anomalies, which all tilted in one direction scream FRAUD. And, like the pay-for-play, going on in the
Clinton Foundation, they respond, “Prove it!”
Do you really think we don’t know what went on?
The Radical Left (which includes allies in the MSM) has
gotten very adept at denying the reality that you see right in front of your
eyes. But unless you have the equivalent
of the blue dress as evidence, you will not prevail.
Privilege
We are being told to stay in our homes, cancel the holidays, not have a funeral for grandma, wear masks, while politicians like Lori Lightfoot, Chuck Schumer, Bill DeBlasio gather in large crowds to celebrate the Biden victory. DC mayor Muriel Bowser shrugs off violating her own quarantine rules to attend election celebrations. Lightfoot and Pelosi get their hairdos while Michigan governor Whitmer hounds a barber in his 70’s for staying open. Most egregiously, the infamous Dr. Fauci, who last summer was caught without a mask, violating social distancing “rules” at a baseball game, is now telling us to “do what you’re told.” "Do what your told" lost its cache in this country in 1773 with the Boston Tea Party.
It’s been going on all summer. Huge crowds were permitted to attend the
funeral of George Floyd, but you are told to cancel Thanksgiving, forego
grandma’s funeral services, and keep your kids out of school. Nancy Pelosi was planning a large state
dinner welcoming new members until she was shamed out of it. We know that a virus cannot distinguish
between the entitled political class and gatherings for progressive causes and
us plebians. We know something else is
going on here, and we are taking note.
Probably the most blatant example of the privilege at play is Ilhan Omar. She likely violated immigration laws through a fraudulent marriage, funneled millions into her new husband's consulting firm, and has engaged in vile anti-semitism, yet remains untouched, unrepentant and remains a celebrated member of "The Squad."
The privilege extends in many directions. Businesses are being crushed by lockdowns,
people are being thrown out of work, especially in the restaurant, hospitality,
and airline industries. Yet government
workers don’t miss a paycheck, even as demand for government services has
declined.
It is not white privilege that is wrecking our society. It is Marxist privilege.
Violence
The Radical Left began to normalize political violence as
soon as Trump took office. There was the
play in Central Park in which Trump was stabbed to death. Then there was Kathy Griffin holding the
severed head of Donald Trump and Whoopie Goldberg sporting a t-shirt showing
Trump being shot in the head.
Left wing politicians used it in their language. Joe Biden spoke of “beating the hell out of
Trump if he were in high school.” Andrew
Cuomo recently said, “If I wasn’t governor of New York, I would have decked
him.” The political class has normalized
and verbalized their desire to use physical violence against a political
opponent. This is VERY dangerous.
Of course, there were the riots this summer in Minneapolis,
New York, D.C. and Chicago and the ongoing Antifa assaults in Seattle and
Portland. There were follow on
outbursts in Kenosha, Waukesha, and Philly.
In each case, people were injured and sometimes killed, property was
destroyed, stores looted and in each case, public officials told law
enforcement to stand down or otherwise handcuffed them. The
widespread looting, burning, harassing of citizens and physical attacks on law
enforcement officers continued with muted responses from Radical Left
mayors. In Evanston a few weeks ago,
Northwestern students (among the most privileged youths on the
planet) rioted and threw bricks at police and pointed lasers in their eyes. These are assaults that under the rule of law
would justify the use of deadly force in response. By not condemning it, and taking firm steps
to stop it, one can only assume that Democratic politicians are giving their
tacit assent.
And now, AOC,
Jennifer Rubin and others are making lists of political enemies. Antifa is harassing lawyers that are
assisting the Trump campaign. Earlier
this summer, Tucker Carlson’s family was harassed by mobs as was the family of Mitch McConnell. No Democrat has yet condemned Antifa or their assaults, including the assaults last night in D.C.
Marxism has mutated.
It has merged with Woke culture and found an ally in COVID19 that provides the
rationalization for stripping away our liberty and installing a one party
system. The hard truth is that people
had more freedoms in Eastern Bloc countries than we do now in Blue States, and
we will have to fight to claw them back.
With each passing day, I fear that a widespread physical confrontation
becomes more likely.
