Communism is with us today, but so is Nazism. Very much so.

Amici,

Fr. Edward Leen commented in 1937 about society being almost wholly deChristianized. 1937. The past not only "haunts" us, but it is very much alive with us, today.

For example, what was going on in the world in 1937? For one thing, Eugenics was big and so was Nazism. One of the problems the Church has had in the 20th century is she didn't frame a strong enough rebuke of either Communism or Nazism. Pius XI tried to do both and Pius XII tried to negotiate with both (esp with Communism after WWII). John 23 threw all caution to the winds, unfortunately, and surrendered the Church to the zeitgeist. The result: Communism is so obviously heavily with us today, but so is Nazism. What do you think is behind all this population control-vaccine everybody for-the-sky-is-falling-if-we-don't-submit movement? Global Warming is an essential part to it, but so our current fight with a faux plague (now shown to be mostly Influenza A and B .

Everyone has heard how Bill Gates (whose family has a eugenics past) is so big on population control; well, so is Klaus Schwab of Davos and The World Economic Forum, whose father was deeply involved in helping the Nazis in many ways, not least of which was developing the Atom bomb. An article here goes into the details. 

The author of the above piece sums up by writing, 'I’ve been trying for years to warn people about a post-war “Nazi International,” an “extra-territorial state” hiding behind a complex tapestry of corporations, funds, foundations, think tanks, and a bewildering labyrinth of interconnections, all still firmly in the grasp of a hideous ideology.' A "bewildering labyrinth of interconnections." There's "Globalism" in a nutshell, for you.

Holy Church should be in the forefront of humanity's defense against both Black Fascists (Nazis) and Red Fascists (Commies), against faux plagues and Global Warming hysteria, against medicine hitching itself to social and population control, but too much of the hierarchy seems to be in bed with all these! The current occupant of St. Peter's Chair is pushing both vaccination and Climate Change! Thus, the rest of us have nowhere to turn.

So, no wonder we're in the mess we're in. The only hope we have is in the Incarnation, as much with us (in the Most Holy Eucharist) today as He was with us 2,000 years ago. Things were bleak then. Satan ruled openly (as he does in Communist China today). But the Incarnation changed history, and will change the present. We need to pray.

Who is behind the American Left? Soviets started it, ChiComs run it now, but the Freemasons probably started it

Judge Emmet Sullivan's insane judicial acts in the past week have garnered a lot of attention, and I rejoice to see the great Sidney Powell has gotten a quick response from the Appellate Court. 

But of course, the whole railroading/framing of General Flynn is only a part of a long-standing, deeply wide-ranging attack on the "American Right" or, as it actually is, the John Lockean "Classical Liberal" school of political thought that created the United States in the first place. 

From what does the Left come, though? Originally, as most political histories (political histories that aren't Leftist, of course) will teach that Jean-Jacques Rousseau was the "father" of what has become Leftism. In some ways that's true. Rousseau was born in 1712 (in Geneva, Switzerland). If ever there was a seventh-century man, Jean-Jacques could be said to be it, as immoral as the Bourbons and as stupid, too. 

But in 1717 something else was born, and that organization was the real "power-that-was" in fashioning Leftism and Communism, or whatever form Socialism takes. I refer, of course, to Freemasonry.

Today, in the U.S., I suppose the ChiComs are behind a lot of the Left's antics. The Chinese Communist Party has bought up U.S. politicians like it has bought up industry, agriculture, and real estate – indeed, but beyond those obvious gambits that we talk about so much, it is probably true that a lot of "sleeper cells" of various sorts are being activated to do their mischief. The Soviets were famous for their "sleeper cells", of course; the Chinese are even more patient and "Long March" than the Soviets ever dreamed of being. In any event, originally, it would have been Russian Soviets directing all that back in the 1920s and esp, once FDR was in office, they pretty much controlled the new "Administrative State" he created. 

Joe McCarthy and Dick Nixon would later put a dent into all that in the '50s, but probably only a dent. (To the extent Nixon was successful, he gained the implacable hatred of the American media, which was only too happy to use Watergate to bring him down.) Jack Kennedy, for all his many, many faults, was at least a serious Cold Warrior (and close friend of McCarthy, BTW), and look what happened to Jack: taken out in an obvious KGB op that the government and media "powers-that-be" (as in Scotty Reston of the NY Times) hid in plain sight. About the over-all Communist game, Diana West has written extensively. She her American Betrayal, The Secret Assault on Our Nation's Character.) 

Then, as the Russian Communists began to fade out, the ChiComs were only too glad take their place, ironically able to do so because of Nixon's "Opening" of China. Actually, we can thank both Nixon and Kissinger for this turn of events, but it was post Reagan presidents, Democrats (Clinton and Obama) and the Republican Bushes, who really made China's near total power in the world possible. The de-industrialization of the U.S. to the point that we didn't even make our medicines was not something that just happened, or followed naturally from unbridled Capitalism à la David Ricardo. It had to be planned, especially so as it happened so fast.

But behind all of the Leftists, whether Communist or Socialist, behind all the machinations, were the Freemasons. I know it has been made to sound "tinfoil hat" to bring them up, especially in the U.S., where they've been either not noticed at all, or made fun of, or perhaps the hospital Shriners, but in the 18th century they were an association of extremely influential elites, a truly trans-national organization in an age when the only other "trans-national" institution was the Roman Catholic Church! Freemasonry was contemporary to the rationalism of the 18th century, contemporary to the atheism (Deism) so fashionable in that century. 

From what I understand; i.e. they would later foster the whole Communist/Socialist ideal, from back in the days of Karl Marx on, for whatever Black Arts/Utopian reasons they had conjured up in the 18th century – but they certainly would have been the original "Globalists" and "New World Order" types. Consider it: they were the only "Globalists" in town, the only Global Idealists for a couple of hundred years; until the Bolsheviks seized Russia and broadcast their intention to spread Communism across the world, nobody else even thought of such an outlandish set of ideals involving all nations, the entire world.

Today? I don't know what, if any, role they might play today in all this. The Left might have, like Frankenstein's monster, taken on a life of its own (Lenin wasn't polite to the Masons in Russia!). It might well just be running on its own steam now, a perpetual motion machine – like Captain Kirk's Doomsday Machine in the Star Trek episode of the same name, a weapon set in motion eons ago in a war long forgotten, but still running, and still deadly.

Reflections on the Impeachment and Leftism's Roots January 30

Amici,

Finally, it looks as though the Impeachment saga of President Trump is about to end. Late last night, January 29, after a day of the senators asking questions via written text read by the Chief Justice, it became apparent that Mitch McConnell, Senate leader, has whipped up the votes to squash any request for new witnesses. (The Democrats have had 17 witnesses so far, whose testimony came from their House hearings, and one witness whose testimony Adam Schiff has blocked: this 18^th witness was the “Intelligence Community’s Inspector General’s testimony given some months ago in a closed committee hearing. The Republicans have used only these 17 witnesses’ testimony, and called no new witnesses of their own.) I saw a New York Times article this morning lamenting this likely vote-down of new witnesses. Clearly, the Democrats will use this vote – if it occurs Friday evening, the most likely time for it – as a cudgel to try to maim Republican senators running for re-election. Of course, some new turn of events might occur today, the second and last day of senators asking questions. Tomorrow, Friday, they’ll debate what they’ve been presented with.

After yesterday’s one day of questions, however, it has become apparent that the Democrat managers from the House both don’t have a case, nor the ability to defend what they do have under such “cross-examination” the senators can give. This development was apparent to anyone listing to or reviewing some of the prosecution team’s opening arguments, and then the White House’s team’s response. Also, the Democrats, as Trey Goudy has said, had a stupid way of arguing their case, insulting many senators for hours, and they’re carrying that over in answering the senators’ questions: Ted Cruz last night said Adam Schiff twice refused to answer a question presented to him on Wednesday, and that’s just not going to work.

So, as this apparently winds down, at long last, at least for the time being, one naturally asks what was all this about. For what it is worth, I’ve written up a few things that I find worth considering.

Background

Donald Trump is what is known as a “Change Agent”. For better or worse, such people change the course of the way things had been going before. Abraham Lincoln was perceived to be a change agent by the Southern slave-owning class, and thus they started the Civil War to prevent him from making any changes to their part of the country as it had been. Franklin Delano Roosevelt was another such agent of change; so were, in different degrees, Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson. Ronald Reagan tried to be, and to some degree was, but the statist, rule-by-bureaucracy that FDR started was not so easily derailed. Lyndon Johnson was a “change agent” in a terrible way, leaving the country nearly at war with itself with his Vietnam debacle and his “Great Society” that parked generations of Black Americans on the “asphalt plantations” in the huge urban areas the Democrats rule with an iron hand.

Mixed with all of that, there’s the marked, and growing, trend in academia and in certain political circles toward both Globalism and Socialism, the latter manifesting as a sort of hodge-podge of true Socialism, Mercantilism, and “crony Capitalism”. Socialism and “Leftism” in general need a few words.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau was the father of Leftism. A reprobate himself, fathering many bastards, he wrote, “Man is born free, but everywhere he is in chains.” He meant moral chains, repressing us, keeping us from fathering bastards and being wastrels, as he was. Jean-Jacques was a sort of high IQ version of Hunter Biden, in fact. (The comparison is quite striking, except that J-J didn’t have a father who was Vice President.) “Freedom” for Rousseau meant fathering bastards and not working at a gainful trade, and you can see his intellectual progeny in the “Pro-Choice” movement and the hedonistic culture of today. Jean-Jacques was a non-religious antinomian down to his DNA. All Leftists, mild or strong, are in some degree antinomian, actually; they believe mankind is basically good, and held back by old demented types who impose an impossible morality on everyone: such “repressors” are what the very Progressive Pope Francis calls “Pharisees” and “Rigorists” in morality, and what Marx would have called Capitalists or the Owners of the Means of Production in economics. Either way, the common Joes and Janes of the world are held back, held down, and taken advantage of. Bernie Sanders says this every day. If only the Repressors could be overthrown, then everyone would flourish. Peace, joy, “from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs,” to quote Marx.

I, myself, am on the Right, not the Left, for religious and anthropological reasons. I don’t think people are basically good, and they need strict laws to keep them in line. One doesn’t need to be religious to appreciate this. James Madison apparently had no religion at all, but famously wrote, “If men were angels, no government would be necessary.” God made Mankind good, and blessed it and all Creation on the first Sabbath Day (Genesis 2), but Original Sin prevents them from really being very good, certainly not for any length of time. We can neither achieve Heaven on our own, nor Utopia on Earth. That’s the Christian religion (can’t say “Judeo-Christian”, because Jews reject the idea of Original Sin) and that is common-sense everyday experience. G.K. Chesterton said that Original Sin was the easiest Church doctrine to prove; all one had to do was to open the daily newspaper. But the Left, you see, is on a morally iconoclastic crusade, an antinomian jihad. In a tired, materialistic, ever-pushing and endlessly competitive Consumer Capitalist world, the Left’s causes can seem like the “tune of a different drummer”, a panacea, an unholy Grail that one can dedicate one’s life to pursuing.

Donald Trump, a man of many achievements and a complicated (and not always moral) past, is now on the receiving end of the Left’s jihad. Trump is a “change agent,” one wrenching the United States away from what’s called the “Uni-Party” politicians and their Globalist friends. The “Swamp” or “The Deep State” is their apparatus for control. Opposed to this is “flyover America”, and in that “great middle” Trump strikes a deep chord in the American soul; Reagan did that, too. But no American president since Reagan has really been a “nationalist” in the classic American sense. 

Certainly, the American Left wants Globalism, meaning not merely international trade but ultimately subjection of established nations to shady foreign bureaucracies. A central element of all this is relaxed sexual morals and abortion on demand (to clean up what the lax morals produce). Lax morals produce, you see, a dissolute, dissipated population naturally unable to manage itself. Thus, you need an all-powerful bureaucracy. (Rousseau foresaw this, actually, and argued for a strong central state to manage the hedonistic zombies his system would create.) Central Globalism is an international trade in which the U.S. becomes a Mercantilist colony of the Left’s ideal republic, the People’s Republic of China (even the pope sings China’s praises, something grotesque, abominable, and Hellish, all in one), and the American military to be the world’s policeman.

Trump is not threatening to upend all that, he’s actually changing it. His “America First” program is about putting the American people first, as in the slogan “Mainstreet, not Wallstreet” in economics, and also in resisting the use of the U.S. military to police the world (a world as hopelessly vicious, tribal, and self-defeating as it ever was). And quietly, steadily, his replacement of liberal or Leftist judges with conservatives is going to change profoundly the homeland’s moral situation, as well.

The Impeachment

So, with this background in mind, how is this Impeachment Trial playing out? What all is involved?

Here’s a parable. Fred and Barney are sitting in a bar, and Fred says he’s going duck hunting. Barney says, “Oh, yeah?” and Fred says, “Yep, I’m going duck hunting in our neighbor’s back yard duck pond! I’m going to shoot his pet duck!” Barney doesn’t say much of anything to that, though maybe he shrugs it off as a joke. A week later, the sound of a shotgun echoes through the neighborhood, and the neighbor runs out his back door and sees his pet duck has been shot up.

Not long after this, Fred is in court, being charged with shooting his neighbor’s duck. Barney jumps up in the back of the courtroom and yells, “Hey, I got some evidence! Fred told me last week he was going to shoot that duck!”

In such a context, maybe Barney’s unsolicited but timely testimony might be considered of some value, IF there were witnesses corroborating what he alleges he heard. However, here’s the kicker: the duck was never shot. There was no gunfire, and no dead duck. Nope; the duck is still swimming about in his duck pond. But Fred is in court for shooting that duck!

This is what President Donald Trump is in an impeachment trial in the Senate for: shooting a duck that was never shot. That’s the gist of what Alan Dershowitz was arguing for over an hour for. Impeachment MUST involve a crime. NO CRIME is alleged, except the very vague “Abuse of Power” and “Obstructing Congress” – which are not listed in the U.S. Constitution as constituting crimes a president can be impeached for. Dershowitz explained that “Abuse of Power” being essentially another version of the British-derived “Maladministration”, which the Constitutional framers excluded from the impeachment criteria precisely because they didn’t want the American president to be in essence a prime minister in a Parliamentary system, and “Obstruction of Congress” is a non-starter, because presidents are supposed to take Congressional demands to the courts, the co-equal Third Branch of government, to adjudicate.

Now, to be sure, the Democrats and the Mainstream Media (MSM) allege that Abuse of Power and Obstruction of Congress are indeed crimes. The New York Times had a piece yesterday making that claim. Either Alan Dershowitz is an idiot or someone (indeed, many someones) are simply insisting on something that isn’t so. (It reminds me or Reagan’s famous, “It’s not that the Democrats don’t know anything; it is just that they know things that aren’t so” line.)

So Trump is on trial for shooting a duck that wasn’t shot. Honestly, for a quid pro quo, we need actual evidence. Witnesses, recordings, something. And now Barney, in the lumpy form of John Bolton, a man who never met a war he didn’t like, is saying he heard Trump discussing the idea of shooting the duck. Can he prove that? How? Or is he just selling a book? And even if Trump “kicked the idea around” with Bolton, it isn’t a crime, even had he actually done it. It certainly isn’t a crime if he didn’t do it at all! It is absurd, therefore, a farce, a sort of Masque of the Swamp Creatures; the House should have never set this precedent, and for its part, the Senate was derelict in its Constitutional duty by accepting these illegal “articles of impeachment.” (In hindsight, it was a mistake to impeach Bill Clinton, purely in terms of long-term political calculation. And the Andrew Johnson Impeachment was a joke, too, on a grand scale.)

There’s another large maggot in this decomposing carcass, a wriggling worm that promises to turn into a monstrously omnivorous, insatiable insectoid monster: the Senate is about to (apparently) vote to call witnesses, witnesses the House didn’t call in its initial hearings (i.e. Barney, and others). Now, the way it is supposed to work, how the Constitution has previously been interpreted, is that the House acts as a District Attorney: it builds a case, does the investigating, and then presents the result to the Senate to judge the merits of the evidence. But in this Donald Trump Impeachment Trial, it looks like 51 Senators are about to vote to call witnesses. This would make the Senate part of the House investigation. In fact, it would make the Senate the House’s “gopher/go-for” lackey and errand boy. That’s not what the Senate is for. If the House didn’t call enough witnesses, or the right witnesses, or whatever they complain about not having, that’s supposed to be their problem. But if the Senate votes to call witnesses, all Constitutional precedents – and all previous interpretations of what the Constitution is saying needs to be done in an impeachment – are overturned. We’re in new territory.

More than “new territory”, we’re in a revolution.

But then again, that has already happened by the Senate voting to hear an impeachment in which no crime is alleged in the first place! Put simply: American Constitutional governance is being wrecked right before our eyes, as we look at it. It’s a true coup d’état. The U.S. Constitution is being bastardized, trashed out. And the Republican leadership in the Senate (Mitch McConnell & Co.) are complicit in that. But then, so are Republicans not in the leadership (Romney, etc.) and all the Democrats.

Clearly, this all sets very bad precedent. A Republican-controlled House could impeach any Democrat president – or a Republican they didn’t like – thus turning impeachment into a “no confidence” vote such as Parliament has. It destroys the American presidency as a co-equal branch of government. This is in fact what happened in the 17^th and 18^th century Britain. Parliament gained ever more and more governmental control from the king, the chief executive, until the king became a mee figurehead, a tourist attraction. (Parliament is also the “highest court in the land” as well.) More directly, it stuffs into the septic tank the will of the American people. The U.S. President (and his Vice-President) are the only two people in the entire Federal system who are directly elected by the nation; this is done via the Electoral College, a system allowing even small states an important say in who is elected, and thus creating a truly national presidency, an unique institution in the world. Removing a president for a non-crime/maladministration is nothing less than a political defecation on the collective American voter. (For three years, the Democrats have alleged the Russian meddled in our election, but if what the Democrats are doing is not meddling, then nothing is.)

In the months leading up to this moment, I’ve been watching as the House of Representatives under Nancy Pelosi and the radical wing of the Democrat Party cleverly laid the groundwork for this fiasco. They would not call a formal House Impeachment Inquiry vote. Such a vote was done in the past, and would have empowered the Republican minority to subpoena witnesses as well as the majority Democrats. By NOT doing it that way, the Republicans could call no witnesses at all, and even the Democrat majority could not legally subpoena witnesses in the sense of issuing subpoenas that would hold up in the Courts. The House Intelligence Committee under the execrable Adam Schift (N.B. his committee should not have been involved in an impeachment in any case!) had issued one of their faux-subpoenas to one of Trump’s National Security Agency’s top people, and he took it to court. At that point, Schift withdrew the subpoena. It would have been thrown out. Many in the press and online Commentary see this as a flaw in the House’s Impeachment, but actually it was done intentionally so, for it allows the Democrats to say, “Boo-hoo, we couldn’t call important witnesses; now the Senate must.”

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been reading a lot of commentary from all angles, and two basic schools of thought seemed to dominate in pro-Trump commentary: one school said the Senate should immediately dismiss the illegal Impeachment Articles (impeaching where no crime is committed, as discussed above), and the other asserting that a full Senate trial, one in which witnesses were called by all sides, was what was needed. The supporters of this second position thought that the infamous “Deep State” could thus be put on trial, and all the maggots exposed. However, as Senator Rand Paul made plain just before the Senate Impeachment trial began, “the fix was in” to remove Trump, and that were the Senate to vote for witnesses, the Republicans would get none. Paul alleged that some of his fellow Republicans were lying in wait to ambush Trump’s defense, and it seems he was quite right.

So, right now, we teeter on the bring of apocalypse. Precedent has been well and truly broken, and laws – including the basic law of the country, the U.S. Constitution – are wrecked. Anything can happen now. If the Democrats call the war-monger (but never-having-served-in-the-military) maggot John Bolton, President Trump must assert Executive Privilege, because no President can have his closest advisors on national security being dragged before Parliament – er, excuse me, Congress – and made to testify about any private advice given. One would think – though in these crazy times, one cannot know – that in this case the Courts would uphold Executive Privilege. Presidents since Washington have asserted it, after all. Everything else considered, there’s no alleged crime here to begin with: as Professor Dershowitz argued before the Senate, presidents have used “quid pro quo” with foreign governments since the beginning. And need I write here that there’s actually no evidence that President Trump did any “quid pro quo” in the first place! That’s the duck that wasn’t shot! Maybe he kicked around the idea with that fool Bolton, and maybe he didn’t (how can Bolton prove it?); but one must be tried for what one did, not what one talked about considering doing.

In any case, voting to call witnesses would mean the Impeachment Trial of Donald John Trump would last in to April or May. That’s because it would take months to wrangle it all out in the Courts. Would the Senators tie up the Senate for that long? Would the American people stand for it? President Trump’s popularity is higher than ever. How high would it be by then?

Perhaps I’m just the pessimist, or maybe I’m an outright, unmitigated fool, but I am definitely NOT sanguine about what’s happening. I trust Senator Rand Paul to raise all Hell in the coming days, but we know that Mitch McConnell has the power to squash Republican Senators from voting for Bolton to testify. Word is that the Chamber of Commerce is offering big money and lucrative contracts to any Senators who vote for Bolton’s testimony. The Chamber of Commerce is a Globalist lobby, soaked in cash and throwing it around to try to destroy Trump, whose “Main Street, not Wall Street” economic nationalism is turning out great dividends for actual Americans. Also, regarding the Globalists, most of whom have sold their soul to China, in effect, they are in for rough times should somehow this new Coronavirus wreak even a fragment of the havoc it is suspected of being able to inflict on the world. The Chinese economy might well collapse; even the evil Barad-dur of the Chinese Communist Party might lose control. It is all so frustrating. So-called “conservatives” have gotten themselves so stuck onto the teat of China, that they’ll catch whatever disease infects that miserable slave state, directly from their false “mother’s milk.”

Short-sighted bastards, them. Trump, with his new United States, Mexico, and Canada trade agreement (USMCA), along with his unsung but massive cutting of the insane “red tape” previous U.S. governments have hampered the U.S. economy with, has made North America an infinitely better place for business to invest in than odious Communist China.

And Trump has so far avoided the purely stark-raving mad “Endless Wars” scenario that we’ve been trapped in for decades. So far, he’s not gotten American military personnel removed from Afghanistan and so on, not yet, but he is, as the old saying goes, a damned sight better than what we’ve had before.

Partly because the Democrats simply have no one remotely suitable for the office of the president running for that position (although Hilary Clinton looks like she wants to jump in, which would probably blow up the Democrats entirely – that’s also certain to happen if the Democrat Party bigshots squash Bernie Sanders a second time), and partly because Donald Trump is able to command huge crowds wherever he goes (see the amazing photos of the hordes who came out for him in New Jersey, of all places!), but mainly because of the excellent economy, Donald Trump will easily be re-elected president – that is, unless the Democrats can remove him via the fraudulent impeachment.

That’s the situation we’re in. The ghost of a true Civil War 2.0 seems to haunt us. Perhaps it is inevitable.

UK PM Has resigned and Trump Goes from Strength to Strength

Lots of news from the political world.

Theresa May has resigned as PM, effective June 7, after a state visit by Donald Trump. See further below for links.

President Trump just goes from strength to strength, heading off now to Japan for a very visible state visit with his friend the Japanese PM Shinzo Abe, and the new emperor, too -- and probably some significant economic announcement (many rumors are afoot to that effect), and he's walloping China, as well (no more smiling Panda: they're talking about a "long march" again!). His economic news is very good. (And this is the UK Guardian, mind you.)

The Chinese dragon is enraged but its wings are getting clipped. Trump has outmaneuvered them with Japan -- and now India (where PM Modi has just won big: https) -- on his side, and of course now Australia has rejected the "Watermelons" (socialist red on the inside and environmentally "green" on the outside) after a significant election there on May 18. Add that to Brazil's new president is amazing, consecrating Brazil to the B.V.M. no less! 

Trump seems to be part of a world-wide nationalist trend. This is what populism looks like, and of course "the powers that be" hate it.

So, with ALL THAT going on, it is significant to note that finally President Trump has ordered declassification of the various documents necessary to prove the whole "Russian Collusion" was a true Delusion, and in fact, an attempt to unseat a duly elected president. (I've been saying for some time now that the Democrats were treating 2016 election about the way they treated the 1860 election; it is incredible, if you think about it, that a very large portion of Democrats refuse to believe Donald J. Trump is actually a valid president, but that was also the case with the second George Bush.) Trump is doing this through Attorney General William Barr, giving the A.G. full power to handle the entire business.

This is quite a massive responsibility for Bill Barr.

An excerpt:

Additionally, AG Bill Barr does not need to assemble the intelligence product for approval by the executive (Trump).  Instead the office of the president is granting the AG full unilateral decision-making as to each product being considered for declassification. ...

This is a huge amount of trust from the President to the Attorney General, and a big responsibility for William Barr:...

So far, the Attorney General has demonstrated he's a true law-and-order A.G. and refuses to be pushed around by anyone, whether Bob Mueller (Bob was just a figurehead to the investigation's real boss, Andrew Wissemann, who really ran the Mueller investigation) or Nancy Pelosi or the Democrat Senators -- or anyone. Bill Barr is amazing, and it looks like the Collusion Delusion conspirators will soon be "paying the Barr bill."

Pelosi's answer to all this was to run. As in flight. Hide. Lie low. As in get-outta-Dodge. She's put the House of Representatives on holiday for ten days (Mitch McConnell "Cocaine Mitch" is keeping the Senate in session). The truth is she's lost control over events and lost control over her Democrats. The vicious "young guns" like Sandy Cortez and Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, true antisemites, are running the show, anyway, pushing her around shamelessly. Also, if you've been watching Pelosi speak in public over the past few days, especially since Trump confronted her and Shumer in the White House on Wednesday, she's having trouble being coherent, showing difficulty in pushing nouns and verbs together and counting on one hand (holding up two fingers and saying "three things" and so on). She's pushing 80 and though that's not necessarily "old", everyone ages differently. And the stress of having the Young Turks (of all stripes) demanding Trump's impeachment, seems to have cowed her. She's between Scylla and Charybdis in that she's got antisemitic Leftist communist wackos on one hand and on the other, "mainstream" Democrats demanding they actually DO some thing constructive with their majority, or they'll be thrown out of power next year. These regular "rank and file" Dem politicians are desperate.

No wonder 'San Fran Nan" is reduced to speaking in gibberish. Meanwhile, Jerry Nadler, who is 71, is not doing too well, either, collapsing on state yesterday.

The "Dem Show" is about over. The end credits are starting to run. And these leaders know it. Some big trade announcements from Japan will make them all look even more petty and clueless.

Also, of course, I'm sure a lot of Democrats wanted Trump impeached now, right now, no waiting, because that might hinder him releasing and declassifying all these various documents that will blow the whole cover on the Russian Collusion narrative -- they could say (and some are saying today) that Trump is "obstructing justice" by releasing all this.

They're too late; kitty is out of the bag and he's a tiger. They've been doomed since Barr forced Mueller to close up shop and submit his badly written 400+ report (readers of it say it would have got an F in law school, as it is disjointed, repetitive, etc.) and by the time the House is back in session -- well, we'll see, for ten days is simply an eternity in politics. But the Democrat Party is looking like a full trainwreck. Since the 2018 election they've accomplished nothing but an ineffective and spiteful harassment of Trump. It's like the Donald lives rent-free in what passes for their minds. It's incredible. (And of course wickedly fun to watch.)

We're watching history in the making, of course. The Democrat Party will be destroyed, and destroyed by the Leftists who have completed their "Long March" to seize it in absolute control terms. One may say this is 1972 come again, when the Democrats went (what at that time passed for) hard left and lost massively to Nixon. Or it is probably more likely this is the final flowering of the seeds planted in 1972 (well, 1968, to be more exact -- and it goes back into the 1930s if you read Bella Dodd, etc.; a very "long march" indeed!).

The "moderate" Dems, if any are left, and whatever Jewish Democrats remain (as a pure matter of simple survival) will have to form up with the "GOPe" "RINO" Globalist Republicans in a true "Uniparty", and Trump can form his own version of a Populist Republican "Brexit Party" -- perhaps a fantasy in terms of being de jure reality, but a reality in being de facto. We're seeing it "in real time".

By the way, the Brexit Party seems to have cleaned house in England. And now I'm reading that Theresa May has resigned. 

Apparently the Brexit Party has dominated the UK European elections.

No doubt the nationalist parties will win in much of Europe now, particularly so in central European countries such as Hungary (the election here is tomorrow) and in Poland, etc. The pro-EU ads I've seen here are ridiculously maudlin and so on, very "turn offy".

The Leftist/Globalst/One-Worlders can't seem to get a break.

As though in a mirror image, this very same thing is unfolding now with the Modernist-Progressives and their Communist Pope in the Catholic Church -- they have seized that organization at an institutional level, yet they'll find they've seized nothing because the Catholic Catholics will not be ruled by such.

Both types of Leftists, secular and religious, think they've "entered in" at long last to power, as it were, but instead they'e "locked themselves out". It's like an insider cabal taking over a club only to find all the due-paying members have quit.

And this is why (and a big "why" it is indeed) Leftists always must use force to keep the unwilling masses in their demented Utopias -- without force, people "vote with their feet" (as Comrade Lenin once said) and walk away. That tactic can't work in a Church and it certainly can't work in a political party, not unless that party's leaders somehow seize absolute police power and force them to stay in.

So, obviously, U.S. citizens who are the famous "deplorables", need to keep their guns. And their ammo. Force is what it will come down to in the end, because the simple truth is that without force, the Leftists will be left looking idiotic, deranged, and very much emasculated -- which they already do a great job of all of those, but especially the last one.
