Members of the party in power are saying and doing things that smack more of a third-world authoritarian regime than a democratic republic. Consider their take on social media. Their words make clear that they hold their tech overlord partners responsible for maintaining “public safety” on their platforms.
They do this by squelching and outright banning dissenting voices. Free and open discussion about COVID vaccines, pandemic overreach, etc., must be carefully monitored in order guard against “misinformation.”
An army of fact checkers patrols posts. Never mind that most of them lean left and hold radical views about free speech and role of government. Facebook’s “Supreme Court,” the august body responsible for reviewing bans, is composed of such radicals.

One of which is the law professor who, during the Trump impeachment trial, snarked Barron Trump while flashing barely-suppressed anger over his father’s egregiously impeachable offenses. She and others like her are responsible for Trump’s (and maybe your) lifetime Facebook ban.
Not a two-way street
In the name of fairness, many hold that our present political situation is a two-sided coin of corruption. Some of my “fair-minded” friends claim that one party is as bad as the other, that they’re equally corrupt. I hold that the phrase, “To be fair”doesn’t apply to an honest discussion of our two political parties.
On one side, we have a party whose ideologues lie about virtually everything. For example, they defend abortion for convenience as a constitutional right of choice. In truth, the Supreme Court decision on Roe v. Wade was made possible by the court creating a right out of thin air by linking choice to our right to privacy. “My body, my choice” is based on that nonexistent right.
Another example is their absurdly dishonest claim that requiring voter ID is a “Jim Crow” measure designed to discriminate against minority voters. It’s a tired talking point that is somehow effective. Honestly, we require identification for virtually everything—in what fantasy world is requiring ID to vote racist?
Tightening the grip
The ruling party’s authoritarian push includes a “For the People Act of 2021,” which, fortunately, will not see the light of day in the Senate. It’s DOA because it would hand power permanently to one party by removing meaningful voter integrity safeguards. It would also wrest presidential election control from the states.
In another authoritarian move, the ruling party introduced legislation to establish a commission to investigate the events of January 6. Rightly, this attempt to make official their insurrection narrative was thwarted by Senate republicans. In truth, the January 6 events were nothing more than trespassing and destruction of federal property. And, tragically, the death of a protester.
Breaking the Rule of Law
What does the party in power hope to achieve by tightening its grip on America? More federal government control over our lives, which means more power for them. Fortunately, one pillar stands in their way, but just barely. Our rule of law.
The party in power gives lip service to our rule of law, but their actions speak louder. Consider their hypocrisy regarding the 2020 summer riots and the aforementioned January 6 pseudo-insurrection.
During the former, authoritarian party leaders like Kamala Harris undercut the rule of law, police and standards of societal behavior by condoning the burning and pillaging of cities. Some likeminded radicals even excused looters’ lawbreaking as justified violent “reparations.”
Shouldn’t it be disturbing to any fair-minded and thoughtful American that leaders in one party side with the mob for politics and power? That they actively denigrate the rule of law in favor of race baiting, hatred and division? Clearly, for them it’s all about power.
As a result, liberty and justice are secondary considerations. Do leaders in the other party demonstrate this craven level of dishonesty and justification of criminality? It’s not even close.
Banana Republic
For a party that routinely lies about voter suppression, pro-choice issues being about women’s health, Supreme Court nominees, a former president being a “threat to our democracy,” Russian collusion, China viruses, ad nauseam—is there any low to which they won’t stoop for power?
No, our two political parties are not two sides of a coin. The present political corruption is not a two-way street. The party in power is in power through a presidential election that was unprecedented regarding voting irregularities brought on by opportunism because of a pandemic. No amount of vilification of doubters will convince a portion of half the electorate that the 2020 election was fair and free.
President Biden said all the right things about unity and healing in January. His actions have undercut his words. In a healthy democratic republic, the answer is less federal control and more freedom. He once believed these maxims, albeit from an old-school democrat perspective. Sadly, he seems to have shucked virtually all his positions in favor of rigid, top-down and radical progressive socialism.
As a result, in our new authoritarian America, power prevails over justice, lies over truth, and freedom and liberty seem like relics of a better time.
Naturally, when a party in power doesn’t respect people in either party, it’s only natural that their desire to act in what they think are in our best interests quickly morphs into control, not representation.
Now, it’s up to the other party to provide a check on this abuse of power—provided they can summon the courage to go against the flow and swim against the tide. Take courage, Republicans, and act. Find a camera and push back harder against the lies and power plays of the other side.

A Day of Infamy: The Orchestrated, Unlawful Trump Indictment
The raw stink of the Biden Administration will linger for the rest of American history
So, starting before he took office, after seven years of the Left trying pin something, anything, on Donald Trump, he is indicted over NOTHING. This occurring less than 300 days away from the Iowa Republican caucuses, the acknowledged start of events leading up to the 2024 U.S. presidential and congressional elections.
The raw stink of the Biden Administration will linger for the rest of American history: The indictment is an act of political war, nothing less, and a day of infamy on par with many in our history.
The obsession of the Left continues to be “get Trump,” as if that will seal the 2024 election for them, as they know they will be quite vulnerable. Unlike 2022, the GOP could take the Senate and retain the House. Several states will elect Republican governors, some for the first time in a long time.

Not to be a ‘Doubting Thomas,’ we all have memories of the 2020 and 2022 elections. For anyone to proclaim that the 2020 election was the most secure election in history is simply a gross lie. Mark Zuckerberg and his drop boxes alone yielded a five-state swing for Biden which would have been Trump’s and would have easily given Trump a huge Electoral College majority.
Refining Their Techniques
Because 2024 is a national election and the Democrats have refined their techniques, in addition to the bogus indictment, the election fraud in which they will engage could be far more difficult to discern than in previous years. The cheating will occur in all 50 states, at the regional level, and at the local level. It will once again include everything from forging ballots to late ballots to double counting ballots to destroying ballots for the opposing side.
In any case, we must head into this election sternly. The election monitors must be as vigilant as ever before. Don’t allow anybody to usher you out of the room. Don’t allow anyone to use newspapers or posters to cover windows so that transactions on the floor cannot be seen.
Finish the election on time on the same day. Be on guard for those late-arriving packages of goodies (ballots) that invariably reward Democrats and consistently penalize Republicans.
A Looming Doomsday Scenario
What about the disaster where we do not take the Senate? This could spell a grave period for America, as it will be a painstakingly long time ‘til the 2026 and 2028 elections. Even then, Democratic cheating might still prevail.
We must brace ourselves if we do not take the Senate and especially if we somehow lose the House. At that point, it will be time for massive, peaceful resistance in highly public ways to let it be known that this kind of assault on democracy will not stand.
It is time to engage in the practices of the Left, however vile we have regarded their practices over the years – blocking roads and disrupting meetings. It is time to dominate school board meetings and all public forums of every type.
We must make our voices be heard in ways that we have not previously attempted.
Why is the GOP Squeamish?
Why are Republicans, and those who vote as such, traditionally reticent to get down and dirty? For one, we have jobs; personal and professional responsibilities. Do Antifa members? One wonders. We have families. We manage households. We do the work that keeps America going, not to say that some Democrats don’t do the same. However, let’s face it: Democrats include almost all convicts, a huge portion of the unemployed and underemployed, the brunt of the entitlement class, and those who would rather tear down the country than do anything else.
The Left includes most of Hollywood, academia, the complicit media, and Big Tech, whose methods for manipulating what really transpires on the web goes beyond what we can imagine, although, on a massive scale, we sense what’s occurring.
The Highest of High Stakes
We need to take back the country. The stakes are too high to play Mr. Nice Guy. Is there any point in standing by as the United States is systematically destroyed? The Trump indictment, more than ever, signals that we might not survive the decade:
The inflation rate, the crime rate, the massive numbers of people pouring over the border, the growing drug crisis, the massive foreign policy failures, the gargantuan national debt, the supply chain disruption, the transportation disasters and boondoggles, the rate at which children are being brainwashed and sexualized, and the sheer incidence of all things bad accelerating, on all fronts, could prove to be too much to bear.
The clock is ticking. There is no time to dillydally. We must batten down the hatches, or prepare to live in a police state.

While Biden Insults Israel, Here is Why the US Must Support Our Ally
Israel is a key ally for the United States in the Middle East

There are several reasons why the United States should support Israel. In this essay, we will explore these reasons in detail and argue for the importance of the United States’ support for Israel.
First, the Bible clearly states that God has chosen Israel as his people. In the book of Genesis, God promises to Abraham that his descendants will become a great nation and that all nations will be blessed through him. This promise is reiterated throughout the Old Testament, with God making a covenant with Israel and promising to bless them if they obey his commands. In Deuteronomy 7:6-8, God says, “For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession. The Lord did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples. But it was because the Lord loved you and kept the oath he swore to your ancestors that he brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the land of slavery, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt.”

Furthermore, in the New Testament, Jesus is referred to as the “King of the Jews” and he himself was born in Bethlehem, in Israel. The Apostle Paul also acknowledges the importance of Israel in Romans 11:1-2, “I ask then: Did God reject his people? By no means! I am an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin. God did not reject his people, whom he foreknew.”
Second, throughout history, the Jewish people have faced persecution and discrimination. The Holocaust, where six million Jews were systematically murdered by the Nazis, is one of the most well-known examples of this persecution. The State of Israel was established in 1948 as a homeland for the Jewish people, in response to this persecution. Since then, Israel has faced constant threats to its existence, with neighboring countries and terrorist organizations seeking to destroy it. The United States’ support for Israel is a way of standing with the Jewish people and ensuring their safety and security.
Third, Israel is a key ally for the United States in the Middle East. The two countries share similar values, including democracy, freedom, and the rule of law. Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East, and as such, it is an important partner for the United States in promoting democracy and stability in the region. Additionally, Israel has a strong military and intelligence capabilities, which are important for the United States’ security interests in the region.
Historically, there have been several instances where the United States’ support for Israel has been crucial. For example, during the Yom Kippur War in 1973, Israel was facing a coordinated attack from Egypt and Syria. The United States provided military assistance to Israel, which helped to turn the tide of the war in Israel’s favor. In 1991, during the Gulf War, Iraq fired missiles at Israel in an attempt to draw Israel into the conflict. However, Israel did not retaliate, thanks in part to the United States’ efforts to convince Israel to remain out of the conflict.
In addition to these historical events, there are also several quotes from biblical scholars, historians, and politicians that support the United States’ support for Israel. For example, in his book The Case for Israel, Alan Dershowitz writes, “The struggle between Israel and its enemies is not simply a dispute over territory, nor is it a religious conflict between Jews and Muslims. It is, rather, a clash between two fundamentally different worldviews: one that values human life and individual freedom, and one that values death and submission to the will of Allah.” Dershowitz’s statement highlights the importance of Israel as a bastion of democracy and individual freedom in a region that is often characterized by authoritarianism and oppression.
Similarly, former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill once said, “The Jews are the most formidable and the most remarkable race that has appeared in the world.” Churchill’s statement acknowledges the resilience and tenacity of the Jewish people, who have faced centuries of persecution and discrimination, yet have managed to thrive and make significant contributions to the world.
Finally, former U.S. President Ronald Reagan once said, “Israel is the only place in the Middle East where Christians, Jews, and Muslims are all free to worship and live in peace.” Reagan’s statement highlights the importance of Israel as a beacon of religious tolerance and coexistence in a region that is often characterized by sectarian conflict.
In conclusion, there are several reasons why the United States should support Israel. Firstl, the Bible clearly states that God has chosen Israel as his people, and as such, Israel holds a special place in the hearts of many Christians. Second, Israel has faced centuries of persecution and discrimination, and the establishment of the State of Israel was a response to this persecution. Supporting Israel is a way of standing with the Jewish people and ensuring their safety and security. Third, Israel is a key ally for the United States in the Middle East, sharing similar values and providing important military and intelligence capabilities. Finally, there are several quotes from biblical scholars, historians, and politicians that support the United States’ support for Israel, highlighting the importance of Israel as a bastion of democracy, religious tolerance, and coexistence in a region that is often characterized by authoritarianism and sectarian conflict. As such, the United States’ support for Israel is not only a moral imperative, but also serves the strategic interests of the United States in the Middle East.
