Is the second American Civil War nearing its conclusion

By Eric Utter January 27, 2022

The truth is that the Second American Civil War is...almost over.  Unlike the first one, the Democrats appear to be a near lock to win.

Leftists, through a combination of brilliant projectionist strategy and callously evil use of their political opponents' naïveté, decency, and tolerance, have transformed America's institutions.  They have weaponized them and used them against their less aggressive fellow citizens.  In the process, they have transformed Americans, their beliefs and expectations, too.  Much like the Chinese Communist Party, they own nearly all the levers of influence and power, exercising an iron grip on the education establishment, the mass media, Big Tech, Wall Street, corporate boardrooms, the health care industry, and Hollywood — and now the CIA, FBI, Defense Department, and ironically named Department of Justice (DOJ).  This in addition to effectively controlling all three branches of the U.S. government.

They are using this power to obliterate the democratic representative republic our Founders built, even as they loudly and incessantly claim they are trying to "save our democracy."  They are attempting a final push now, one in which they intend to grant the District of Columbia (meaning themselves) two senators, eliminate the filibuster (meaning the ability of the minority party to have any say in governance), pack the Supreme Court (meaning they are chagrinned that this is the one body that they don't fully control at present), and nationalize elections by banning the requirement of identification in every state (meaning they can steal every election going forward...in perpetuity).

Always the busy bees (and bodies), they also are continually replacing American citizens with illegal aliens flooding across the southern border, which they leave wide open for this very purpose.  Then they grant these illegal invaders favors that American citizens do not receive.

Leftists take no chances; never rest; and will do literally anything to achieve, retain, and enhance their power.  They are proactive, are always on offense, and build redundancies into their plans.  Therefore, as mentioned, they leave our southern border open.  Then they promise illegals free health care, education…and the right to vote.  And just to be safe, they demand that no ID be necessary to vote.  And that mail-in voting be allowed everywhere all the time.  On top of all of this, they slander anyone who opposes these policies by labeling them racists, xenophobes, and bigots.  They claim that those who oppose these "commonsense" polices are guilty of "voter suppression," even though the entire point of their policies is to suppress, dilute, and cancel the votes of the actual American citizens they detest in the red states and rural areas............To Read More....

Tribal Morality: The Difference Between Election Fraud And Voter Suppression
 
By Mark Andrew Dwyer   January 28, 2022

When conservatives started worrying about election fraud before the 2020 election and complained about it after, they were told they were anti-democratic. It’s a whole different story in 2022 now that Democrats are insisting that the upcoming elections are a recipe for voter suppression.

The Democrat party and its operatives in the federal government have been outraged for over a year when they contemplate how anyone in his right mind could claim that the 2020 elections were fraudulent, despite voluminous and well-documented evidence suggesting massive and coordinated fraud and cheating during those elections.

Democrats keep claiming, without proof, that there has been no “significant” election fraud in 2020 and insisting that anyone who wants to claim there was must prove it or be silenced. Then, of course, they cut off all efforts to show that proof.

Most good faith attempts before judges to prove widespread fraud and cheating were either dismissed before the elections because it was “too early to sue” or, after the elections, because it was “too late to sue,” or the plaintiffs were dismissed for lack of standing. Outside of courts, conservatives were denied investigation and follow-ups (the FBI routinely denied any election-fraud investigations in 2020 and 2021), despite evidence from hundreds, if not thousands, of eyewitnesses, experts, and other inquisitive individuals and groups.

But once the Democrats grabbed federal power in both political branches of the U.S. government, they promptly changed their tune about claims of election fraud.

Now, when they face likely losses in coming elections, they keep claiming—without significant evidence to prove their claims—that the election systems in several states condone, facilitate, or cause “voter suppression.” They demand that Congress pass their H.R.1 bill, also known as the For the People Act of 2021, or its substitutes, the Freedom to Vote Act (dubbed by their Republican opponents as the “Freedom to Cheat Act”) and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, even if doing so would mean suspending long-standing, accepted legislative procedures. Some Democrats, like Mr. Joe Biden, are going further, insinuating without a shred of evidence that the 2022 elections are going to be “illegitimate” if the above-mentioned bills are not passed into law.............That is not quite surprising if one remembers how Soviet and Marxist regimes were permanently attached to their perpetual political power under the pretext of it being a necessary precondition for defending justice and the well-being of the oppressed common people. It’s worth noting that none of those regimes actually bothered to deliver all the goodies that they had promised so generously to their captive constituencies..............

There’s a reason why Democrats have long controlled poll places  

One of the things that’s bewildered me for almost 20 years is why poll workers are so often Democrats. I assumed it was because Republicans were too passive and disinterested to get involved at the ground level. This matters because, as both Stalin and Biden said, what ultimately matters is who counts the votes—and the next closest thing to counting the votes is being a poll worker. I just learned that I owe Republicans an apology. It turns out that, in 1982, the RNC entered into a consent decree that prohibited it from aggressively enlisting poll workers, and that consent decree only fully ended last year.

(Editor's Note:  Another reason the Republicans are called the Stupid Party. RK)

The consent decree isn’t a secret. It’s simply that I hadn’t paid attention to it before and, I’m betting, many of you hadn’t either. Breitbart has the story:

The consent decree was the result of a settlement with the DNC after the DNC sued its Republican counterpart for allegedly intimidating voters in predominantly Democrat areas of New Jersey during the state’s ultra-tight 1981 gubernatorial contest, as reported at the time by the Herald-News.

In a 2020 op-ed in the Washington Post, McDaniel detailed the numerous longstanding limitations the consent decree had placed on her organization and wrote of its newfound freedom that “the playing field” was “level again.”

What happened in 2020 was that the RNC was finally able to recruit poll watchers (but, as we know, Democrat poll workers often managed to kick them out). However, that’s only part of the battle. All other activities, including recruiting poll workers, had to be done under the umbrella of a presidential candidate’s own efforts. So it was the Trump campaign, not the RNC, that recruited poll watchers, and Trump lacked the wide and deep infrastructure the RNC has.......... 

Voters Oppose 'Transformative' Policies, Want Reform of Dysfunctional Bureaucracies 

Michael Barone  Jan 28, 2022
 
Do Americans really want transformative change? The evidence accumulates that they don't. That is a problem for the Joe Biden Democrats, whose policies are premised on the proposition that they do. But do they, really?Yes, you can find polls in which majorities say they approve of policies substantially different from those currently in effect. "Wouldn't it be great" poll questions holding out attractive goals while silent on the downsides tend to invite positive responses.

For months, Democrats have been citing such poll results to promote the individual components of their $3.5 trillion Build Back Better legislation. If you put everything up to the kitchen sink in a proposal, the whole thing should be popular, right?

Well, no, it turns out. Just as it turns out that, despite polling showing support for health care reform, Obamacare proved unpopular while Barack Obama was president and Democrats had majorities -- big majorities -- in both houses of Congress.   Likewise, despite polling showing opposition to Obamacare, its repeal proved unpopular while Donald Trump was president and Republicans had (smaller) majorities in both houses of Congress...........

Biden And His Clown Car Have Failed America!

Ken Blackwell Jan 28, 2022 

Politico reached out to me for a conservative perspective on Joe Biden’s first year in office, but when I hit their favored president too hard, they proved yet again that the establishment media continue to cover for this failed president as shills for Democrats and the far left.  “I’m working on an experts round-up for President Joe Biden's first year in office. I'm reaching out to see if you would be able to participate,” she began, adding, “Here’s a link to one from last year that you participated in, when we asked for assessments of democracy after former President Trump's four years in office.”...........The reporter asked for 200 words by 4pm the following day. So I gave her exactly 200 words, as follows:

President Biden’s first year was the epic failure ........

The great Thomas Sowell opined, “The fact that so many successful politicians are such shameless liars is not only a reflection on them, it is also a reflection on us.  When the people want the impossible, only liars can satisfy.” I am reminded of Sowell’s statement whenever I contemplate the irony of today’s Democratic Party advocating for the voting rights of black Americans.   White Democrats are not seeking voting rights to empower black Americans. They strive to maintain power for themselves, consistently exploiting black Americans toward that end...........

It is an indisputable historical fact that the 1965 Voting Rights Act was necessary because the Democratic Party systematically stole elections for over 100 years. It is also a historical fact that in a 100-year reign of terror, Democrats used bribery, intimidation, torture, and murder against black Americans and poor whites to illegally maintain power...........

Church of Wokeness in the U.S. Military

Wokeness warriors take over the Pentagon - As perhaps the only conservative participant on the Pentagon’s newly formed Countering Extremism Working Group, I can confirm the Pentagon's full embrace of "wokeism." ..........the American government now monitors social media activity in order to ensure service members don’t post, share, or like something "extreme." If this sounds eerily familiar, it’s because China has been doing it for years. - Mike Berry

I've been off for about a week now.  Even a newsie like me can only stand so much and so much is flooding in daily I'm having trouble keeping up with it.  One insane crisis after another, and so insane the whole thing boggles the mind.   But one thing is clear.  Any sane person who follows world events can't help but conclude America is in crisis.  I will be posting a series of my own commentaries dealing with the destruction of America's institutions by the nation's Marxists, the Democrat party.

This fraudulent President has filled his administration with insane leftists who are going to do everything they can to destroy the American culture, the American identity, the American economy and destroy what's left of the Constitution, by destroying the very foundational institutions that make a nation. 

Let's start with the military and Critical Race Theory.

Political Cartoons by Gary Varvel\

On June 25, 2021 Kurt Schlichter, who could stand some serious oversight on acceptable verbiage, posted this piece,  Military Generals Aren't Conservatives, They're Socialists saying:

We got drag queen shows at Air Force bases. Not just any Air Force base. No, it's Nellis Air Force Base, home of the fighter pilot training school where you're supposed to forge on the anvil of combat training the world's greatest fighting force. They had a bunch of dudes dressed like chicks walking around, and this was an official sponsored event, and it's like, what the hell is going on? A drag show, folks. A drag show.  Let's face it; our military is in a really bad way. It's a disaster on every level.

"The biggest danger, the biggest threat to America is climate change.".............The weather. Okay, I don't know about you guys, but there's the Red Chinese. And now, it's even worse because the other half is going to say, "Well, you know what it is? Extremists, white supremacists!"

 Moreover, folks, I'm terrified. I'm terrified that they're going to get people killed because what they're doing, between the drag shows and the anti-racist agenda and the "let's hunt the mysterious extremists taking selfies," is demonstrating that they are an unserious military and this is a very, very, serious time.
 
The Ohio Star ran a piece by Eric Lendrum entitled,  Critical Race Theory Presented Before Board of America’s Oldest Military Academy on June 23, 2021 saying:

The book promoted by Underwood, “White Fragility,” includes numerous outright racist stereotypes and false declarations about White people. Among other things, DiAngelo claims that “common White responses [to Critical Race Theory] include anger, withdrawal, emotional incapacitation, guilt, argumentation, and cognitive dissonance.” DiAngelo also claims that “White identity is inherently racist. White people do not exist outside of the system of White supremacy.”

So, our future military leaders are encouraged to accept the idea white people are weak minded, emotionally challenged, filled with white guilt and angry with white rage, making them all "inherently racists" and any arguments against Critical Race Theory, or Intersectionality (which is so loony I will have to address in another post) is evidence they're guilty of being racists and white supremacists.  The extremists Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin wants to root out.

So, how well is this being received by the men on the ground, not the brass, the grunts who actually are putting their lives on hold with their service and dedication and even their lives on the line.  How well does being told their efforts are supporting a nation filled with racists who are guilty of ____________ just fill in the blank because tomorrow there will be more added to the list of outrages the left wishes to purge from America.   

 
As conflict over Pentagon wokeness intensifies between uniformed and civilian adversaries, dissenters within the military have taken to social media aiming to win hearts and minds for the anti-woke faction.  "We're worried about teaching racism and creating racists within the military rather than making lethal soldiers," wrote one soldier on social media. "Way to go Woke."  "Bruh, they really pushing this shi- from the top brass now," wrote another.

While teaching Critical Race Theory, with it's roots deeply buried in Marxism, when Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley was questioned by Congress Austin said:

"We don't embrace critical race theory," "And I think that's a spurious conversation. We are focused on extremist behaviors and not ideology, not people's thoughts, not people's political orientation. Behaviors is what we are focused on." 

So, after saying they don't embrace CRT General Milley went on to defend teaching it with this logical fallacy saying:

"I've read Mao Zedong," "I've read Karl Marx. I've read Lenin. That doesn't make me a communist. So, what is wrong with understanding, having some situational understanding about the country for which we are here to defend?"..... "I personally find it offensive that we are accusing the United States military, our general officers, our commissioned and commissioned officers of being, quote, 'woke' or something else because we're studying some theories that was out there."

Trump Slams “Woke” General’s Defense Of Critical Race Theory; ‘It Was Pathetic’  - “They didn’t talk that way or I would’ve gotten rid of them in two minutes.” 

These losers would do and say whatever it takes to keep their job.  In short you can't help but conclude they're lying.  They know they're lying.  They know we know they're lying, and I swear, these guys must have read community organizer (hhmmmm, community organizer, where have we heard that term before?) Saul Alinsky's book Rules for Radicals also.  Their responses are right out of his handbook on how to undermine traditional thought.  They're guilty of what Paul O’Brien calls "felony pretending".  

First of all, for those who actually read that twattle spewed out by Marx and the rest, that might be worthwhile to show just how flawed leftists really are, but that brings us to some logical questions. 

  • Were they forced to read it?  
  • Were they indoctrinated in the theories of these stunted misfits by a trained cadre of Marxists?  

Apparently the answer is no to both, and clearly they did that as a choice.  No one was forcing it on them.  And if they really did read that insanity, and understood what was being said, what in the world would encourage them to force feed this stuff to the rank and file? 

This isn't  a choice for them, it's indoctrination, and they have to know that, and it appears the men know that.  Anyone who has ever served recognizes this for what it is.  Indoctrination!  

We now have a military that can't offer chiropractic treatment for soldiers injured in training, but can afford to offer transgender surgeries to people with serious emotional challenges.  

Political Cartoons by Pat Cross

I despised the officers when I was in the service.  And now over fifty years later, I still despise the officers, and these misfits are a clear example of why they should be despised.  

One of the things we need to really understand.  The two groups touted as leaders in the nation are military officers and people with PhD's.  Give them a task,  define the parameters for that task, and they will perform well, since both are well trained and intelligent.  But neither of them, as a group, are real leaders.  Both of these groups come from a cultural paradigm of going along to get along.   

Show me a junior officer who tells his superiors they're wrong, and worse yet proves it, and I will show you a career junior officer.  

Show me a PhD candidate who tells the PhD's interviewing him during his oral dissertation that all their theories are wrong, and proves it,  and I will show you a career PhD candidate with a career Masters degree. 

It's a rare career officer or academic who has what it takes to be the rock in the current because they suffer for it, and let's face it, heterodoxy isn't for the faint of heart. 

Obama obliterated those ranking officers who stood for traditional values and replaced them with leftist misfits.  The stars on their shoulders, medals on their chests, and accomplishments are nothing more than a distraction to the real issues.  

Academia was infested long ago and as time went by government grant money became the holy grail of science and academia, not truth.  

The communist manifesto of the Long March Though the Institutions is now complete.
