The left has become the party that will do anything, say anything to gain authority and power. Our government is supposed to be a government of the people, for the people, by the people but the left has the opinion that it is a government of the government, for the government, by the government. One of our Founders, John Jay, first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, stated in the Federalist Papers #64 : “[T]he government must be a weak one indeed, if it should forget that the good of the whole can only be promoted by advancing the good of each of the parts or members which compose the whole.” He also stated, “Those who own the country ought to govern it.”
The government has been going down the path of dictatorship with every Democrat controlled government. Look at Detroit, Chicago, California and any other poverty-stricken city/State. They are all Democrat controlled. The top ghettos in America are all governed by Democrats and have been for decades. Baltimore has five of the most dangerous neighborhoods in the country, FIVE! [1] It is a bastion of democrat control. Every city/State that is dominated by Democrats have massive taxes, massive poverty and they legislate control of every area of a citizen’s life. They promise prosperity but NEVER deliver. Just look at all the promises the Democrats have made to black community yet they are still poor. Under Obama black unemployment skyrocketed for and wages fell.
The Obama administration claimed it would be transparent yet Fast and Furious information was never released, Benghazi was called the result of a Youtube video when it was actually a cover up for Hillary’s gun sales to radical muslims, Obama did not support the freedoms that our Constitution gave us. Our top cop under Obama, Eric Holder, stated that he though certain laws were not constitutional so he would no longer enforce them.[2] Obama did all he could to kill conservative businesses by having banks deny them accounts using Operation Choke Point, which Democrats are trying to resurrect. Congressman Warren Davidson (R-OH) is warning that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her cronies on the House Financial Services Committee are feverishly pushing to resurrect “Operation Choke Point,” a program to target conservatives set up in the Obama administration.
According to the Competitive Enterprise Institute, “Operation Choke Point was a Justice Department and Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. initiative launched in 2013 and aimed at cutting off banking services to certain businesses.”
“Some of the unfavored transactions targeted by federal regulators included the sale of firearms, ammunition, fireworks, dating services, tobacco products and payday loans.”
The Trump administration ended Operation Choke Point in August 2017. But legislation making the practices the program employed unlawful has yet to pass Congress, so the program, though unused, is still alive.
Congressman Davidson, who sits on the Financial Services Committee, recently told The Western Journalthat Ocasio-Cortez “essentially in several statements tried to revive the practice of using the financial system to win a debate that they’ve already lost.
“Trying to use the financial system to effectively say, ‘You’re not going to bank with those people, are you?’”
Davidson also made the point that this kind of pressure campaign against companies engaging in lawful commerce is wrong. [3] A government that tries to destroy/stifle free enterprise is NOT a representative government but a dictatorial government.
Our media is infested with left wing agenda driven corporations. In 1983 90% of the media was owned by fifty companies. By 2012 that 90% was owned by six companies. The six corporations that collectively control U.S. media today are Time Warner, Walt Disney, Viacom, Rupert Murdoch’s News Corporation, CBS Corporation, and NBC Universal. Together the “big six” absolutely dominate news and entertainment in the United States. [4] You can listen to the nightly news of every station in your area and the wording for each of the topics reported are virtually identical. This isn’t freedom of the press, it’s indoctrination by the press.
What we see when this happens is the narrative of a few is pushed by the majority. Look at the Southern Poverty Laws Center a racist, biased organization that hates companies and people that support biblical values and moral character. Virtually ALL media, with few exceptions, back this organization’s ‘findings’ that companies like Family Research Council are hate groups because they stand for biblical values, the values that made America the greatest nation in the world. SPLC attacks any organization that is supposedly anti-black, yet they have been accused of that very thing: More than two decades ago, I was managing editor of the Montgomery Advertiser, which was located one block from the SPLC in downtown Montgomery, Ala. I proposed an investigation into the organization after ongoing complaints from former SPLC staffers, who came and went with regularity but always seemed to tell the same story. Only the names and faces changed. The SPLC, they said, was not what it appeared to be. Many urged the newspaper to take a look.
We were, at the time, anything but adversaries with the center. Like other media outlets, we generally parroted SPLC press releases. We also became friends with SPLC staffers, occasionally attending the center’s parties. Some of my reporters dated staffers at the center.
That relationship, however, suddenly soured when reporters Dan Morse and Greg Jaffe (both of whom now work for The Post) began making serious inquiries about the SPLC’s finances and the treatment of black employees. [5]
The left has been pushing global warming for decades. Even though no evidence has ever been presented that proves it, it is a venue for control that they are pursuing. We see this attempt with this idiotic New Green Deal. They want to eliminate cars, planes, trucks, ships, cows and totally renovate every building in the US save the planet, which only has 12 years left according to them. Keep in mind Al, I invented the internet, Gore said the ices caps would be gone and coastal cities would be flooded by 2014. Just to prove that God has a since of humor, we had record ice caps in 2014. The last two ‘Global Warming’ conventions he attempted to put together had to be cancelled because of snow.
This New Green Deal is obviously a tool for them to control what you do, where you go, how you get there, what you eat and where and how you live. That’s total control of your life. It goes without saying that none of this Green Deal could be established in the next twelve years meaning it is futile. The world is doomed, just like it was in 2000 and in the 1930’s when they said we were headed of a mini ice age. NONE of it ever happened. Their lies meant to control the populations have failed and will continue to fail. But if we don’t stop them, they will continue to try to get their way. They won’t let up and we must not let up on our defense of our freedoms.
