Remaking America

I do not know who or what is in charge of the current administration. I believe it is most certainly not Joe Biden, because the border and spending crises cannot be attributed to mere incompetence or incoherence. I think the reason the titular president and vice president have not been to the border is that the situation there is going precisely as intended. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott fails to grasp this simple fact. Washington is trying to remake middle “red state” America.

I have nothing against Haitians, but 20,000 showing up in Del Rio, Texas, is not an accident. The effort to spend trillions at levels unimaginable only a few years ago also is not coincidental. I believe this is an attack on the Republican middle-class base itself, designed to cause hyperinflation, destroy the dollar and crash the economy, a la Venezuela. Anyone who has taken Econ I can figure that out. Throw in the possible federal takeover of elections and you can see what is in the works.

Poor Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi are modern-day Robespierres trying to stay one step ahead of the mob and its guillotine (I recall he was unsuccessful). The Chamber of Commerce Republican leadership talking about its “friends across the aisle” is completely clueless to the radicals who want to wipe them out. What your gumshoe lead editorialist calls “immigration reform” is amnesty for undocumented Democrats, and “climate change” legislation is the Green New Deal and a takeover of the energy sector of the economy. They call it compassion, but their goal is control and a one-party state, which they hasten to accomplish before the 2022 midterms. As Emerson (no kin) said, a man on thin ice has to move fast.
