Democrats are enemies of the people

Yes – all Democrats are enemies of the people. The rank-and-file probably don’t know what they signed on for, but their leaders definitely do. This does not follow from their perhaps having stolen the Election of 2020. If that rumor were all that Republicans had against them, they’d have no case. The real case against the Democrats lies in how they have governed, the standards of good government and disinterested judgment they have violated, and what they plan for an increasingly likely electoral outcome this fall. They accuse Republicans of refusing to accept a “democratic” election. In fact they will not accept electoral defeat, and have been governing, and intend to govern, like dictators. For that reason, voters must decide what kind of country they want to live in – and if they value their lives, liberties, and properties, they will vote Republican, not Democratic.

The case against the Democrats – thus far

Indeed, Democrats hinted in the summer of 2020 that they never intended to accept electoral defeat. Their Transition Integrity Project reeks of that refusal. Recall that they ran four scenarios, and conveniently assumed that Biden would capture the popular vote each time:

• A decisive Biden win, the closest to the actual announced results (with no acknowledgment of hacking of electronic voting machines),
• A much narrower Biden win,
• “The Election That Never Ended” (i.e. an irreconcilable dispute of the electoral vote), and finally:
• A decisive Trump win, that in their scenario led to civil war.

The Transition Integrity Project was only one of several nefarious Democratic plans to make sure they would never lose an election again.

Laying all that aside, observe how the Democrats have governed. On Day One, “Resident” Biden signed a plethora of Executive Orders effectively opening the border. Among others, he ordered contractors then building the “Trump Wall” along the Mexican border to down tools and go home. Elsewhere, the Democrats have supported the election of public prosecutors who refuse to prosecute typical street crime. A thief, to them, is an irregular wealth-redistribution agent – and a murderer is an irregular population thinner. They also supported the “COVID Lockdowns,” that have destroyed the economy and cost schoolchildren a year of instruction. In so doing they revealed to parents that the instruction government school teachers were giving, was not instruction at all, but indoctrination.

Throwing the President’s son under the bus?

Yesterday Hunter Biden, the “Resident’s” son, was convicted on three felony charges relating to the unlawful purchase of a handgun. Unlawful, that is, because he was habituated to cocaine and lied about it on an application to purchase the weapon. Practically no observer expected the conviction, with the trial happening in Delaware, “where everybody knows everybody else.” Nevertheless the conviction came – and that alone raises the question of whether the Democrats sacrificed the President’s son.

The Trump campaign seems to think just that. Within hours of the taking of the verdict, Karoline Leavitt, the campaign’s National Press Secretary, poured contempt on the proceedings.

This trial has been nothing more than a distraction from the real crimes of the Biden Crime Family, which has raked in tens of millions of dollars from China, Russia and Ukraine. Crooked Joe Biden’s reign over the Biden Family Criminal Empire is all coming to an end on November 5th, and never again will a Biden sell government access for personal profit.

In other words, the Biden Justice Department, in the person of the United States Attorney for Delaware, charged Hunter Biden with the wrong set of offenses. Whether ardent Second Amendment advocates would even regard those charges as legitimate, remains an open question. (Most gun-rights advocates believe the best defense against a person of questionable character holding a gun is a preponderance of persons of good character holding guns and standing ready to intervene against him if necessary.) The really serious offenses involved influence peddling on behalf of foreign governments. J. Edgar Hoover would never have bothered charging Hunter Biden with unlawful purchase and possession of a weapon. He would far sooner charge him with failure to register as a foreign agent, if not with espionage.

Nevertheless, the Democrats sacrificed the President’s son, to cover for far worse miscarriages of justice.

What were they?

And what were those miscarriages of justice? How about charging Donald Trump with offenses that should never have been chargeable? And conducting trials with none of the protections that civil or criminal defendants enjoy? The only reason Trump is “a convicted felon” is that a public prosecutor who ran on a platform of “getting Trump,” and a judge with both financial and ideological conflicts of interest, made that happen.

When they did that, they gave Trump as much provocation as the enemies of Gaius Julius Caesar gave him. Caesar, of course, threw a set of high-flying dice and crossed an otherwise undistinguished river into southern Italy, and rebellion. Donald Trump does not, so far, seem to have any need to do that. His conviction has made him more popular rather than less – so popular that he might carry New York. Or if he doesn’t, then he’ll carry Virginia, or at least force the Democrats to spend money in both States that they can’t afford to spend.

But Biden seemed to act as if Trump were planning to cross the Potomac with an army. Within hours of his son’s conviction, he addressed a gun-control summit. There he repeated a threat he’d made a year and a half ago, and even earlier:

If they wanna think to take on government if we get out of line … guess what? They need F-15 [jet fighter]s! They don’t need a rifle!

Democrats behaving badly

Indeed the last twenty-four or more hours have seen shocking reports of bad behavior by Democrats. Some of this behavior confirms Republican suspicions that Democrats like to steal elections.

In Bridgeport, Connecticut, a Democratic city councilman, the vice-chair of the city’s Democratic Party chapter, and two campaign workers now face charges of election fraud. This includes unlawful possession of an absentee ballot issued to another voter.

In Florida, Clinton-appointed District judge Robert Hinkle struck down an anti-mutilation law that Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) had proposed. The judge accepted the dubious “standard of medical care” that judges surgical mutilation and hormonal poisoning of children appropriate. Gov. DeSantis vowed to appeal.

Yesterday evening, Jim Hoft at The Gateway Pundit provided a partial transcript of an interview between John Solomon (just the News) and Grant Stinchfield, concerning reports that the FBI has systematically purged Trump supporters from its ranks.

An hour later, TGP’s Mike LaChance reported that House Democrats “are already scrambling … for a Trump victory in November.”

Reaction was, of course, predictable:

This morning, Margaret Flavin (TGP) reported on an incredible interview on MSNBC with Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.). Emphasizing the collateral toll from the IDF’s rescue of four hostages from their Gaza “civilian” keepers was bad enough. (And that he forgot to mention that one of those keepers was an Al-Jazeera journalist.) But then he saw fit to speak of the release of those hostages, not their rescue.

Worse reports

This next report is not so much of what Democrats did, as what they refuse to condemn in ideological allies. A group of anti-Israel miscreants saw fit to protest the Nova Exhibition, an exhibit honoring dead or captured Israelis from the Nova Music Festival on October 7, 2023.

One even said he wished Adolf Hitler were still alive:

A few protesters took over a New York City subway car and actually demanded that Jewish passengers identify themselves. They then said, “This is your chance to get out.” They don’t seem to have thought their operation through, because when no one raised a hand, they said, “OK, no Zionists; we’re good.” But someone recorded the incident and shared the video to X.

Ask yourselves: where was the outrage in the House Democratic Conference? And are these the kind of people anyone, of either party, should be celebrating?

But this afternoon, Christina Laila (TGP) shared the worst report. Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) actually said, on Black Entertainment Television, that Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) was necessary because black prosecutors and judges were going after Trump.

If we’re ever to change the criminal justice system and get some justice, we’ve got to be in there.

First: is this justice? Second: did she just admit that those “black prosecutors and judges” couldn’t qualify absent DEI? Third: did she just plump for bills of attainder and ex post facto laws, and selective application of the law?

Can you be a Christian and a Democrat?

Donald Trump understands the issue. Twice he has said that no Christian can vote Democratic. He said it first before the National Religious Broadcasters’ convention in Nashville, Tennessee back in February. This week he said it again, in recorded remarks played to the Danbury Institute’s Life and Liberty Forum in Indianapolis, Indiana. If Trump has not exactly led a Christian lifestyle, as two evangelical Christians complained to The Hill on August 31, 2020, that didn’t seem to matter today.

It doesn’t matter for two reasons. First, Trump has brought results. Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization is the most concrete result so far. (Those two complainants at The Hill might have misrepresented Trump’s actions regarding human trafficking. They thought they could accuse Trump of reneging on a pledge to combat it. Tim Ballard, the Hero of Colombia of Sound of Freedom fame, would beg to differ with them.)

And second, Joe Biden has brought the opposite kind of result. His FBI raids pro-life activists, runs false-flag pseudo-operations, and imprisons people without trial for getting mixed up in them. Venal doctors take his advice and rush to get in on the lucrative practice of surgical mutilation and hormonal poisoning. (Although against that disgusting ruling in Florida, one can count a favorable ruling in Texas against Biden’s butchering of Title IX.)

The Democrats changed the game

As Yuval Levin says in his latest book American Covenant, Democrats changed, indeed warped, the civics and civil relations game. They plump for a technocratic and iatrocratic (rule by the doctors) elite, whose rulers would have more in common with Viktor Frankenstein than Hippocrates of Cos – or Luke the Physician. Indeed if Franz Kafka collaborated with Mary Shelley on a novel, the result would look remarkably similar to America today.

That is why, if you value life, liberty and property – including your own – you must not vote for Democrats. And those of you who have let that Party seduce you with the twin siren songs of covetousness and spite, need to check your premises. Ask yourself how safe you are from having any of the injustices recently reported, happen to you. Civil society requires not only order but also honor. Violate that, and all bets are off, and no one is safe. As many of your fellow citizens have seen.

The last primaries still remain ahead of us, and then the conventions begin. As you prepare to cast your ballot this fall, remember what is happening today.
