Both of our national political parties have historically clung to a bunker mentality when one of their prized members has come under public attack. In my lifetime, the one exception is President Richard Nixon, who seemed to have no allies whatsoever; even the Republicans…in fact, the Republicans literally enabled and encouraged the impeachment proceedings of Nixon.
For
all of his obvious flaws and transgressions, the Democrats never abandoned
President Bill Clinton. They stuck
loyally with him even when tossing him overboard would have been the easier…and
perhaps…wiser choice. The strange
dynamic we are now witnessing between the Republican Party and Donald Trump is
quite similar. A clear majority of
Republicans simply refuse to abandon Trump in spite of his obvious flaws and
transgressions. With multiple viable
candidates opposing his pursuit of the Republican presidential nomination, they
nonetheless stubbornly cling to his coattails with the endgame cry of…Damn the torpedoes, it is Trump in the White
House or else! It is brutally
sobering to consider exactly what else
might entail.
The
latest episode of this national party denial of reality played out this week as
the Hunter Biden/Department of Justice (DOJ) plea deal fell apart. And in spite of the party mantra, the man the barricades cries of
solidarity, and the super intense pressure
for ALL Democrats to cling to the
defense of the Biden Family Enterprises until the last possible moment…the
painfully-obvious joke of justice that is the DOJ and Attorney General Merrick
Garland was caught with its hand in the cookie jar. There is no adamant and enthusiastic denial
that will suffice to cover up this blatant attempt to subvert the primary law
enforcement arm of our American Government in an effort to protect a corrupt
president and his cabal of filthy family members. The facts speak for themselves.
Surely…surely…we have reached a tipping point
where that rare and reportedly-extinct creature known as a moderate Democrat
will show its head and voice reasonable and sincere concerns over how this
President and his crime syndicate relations have turned our government into a
prostitution of power and influence for sale to the highest bidder. Has the
moment of truth arrived…or as we have said so many times over the last couple
of years… “Is this simply another annoying leak on the Biden ship of state to
be staunched?”
This sad tale of the ultimate
government jobbery is not complicated and is beginning to be connected by a
series of facts and evidential revelations.
Read what it is all about and then decide for yourself if this is the
government you want to support in our nation.
Here is a great 30-minute summary
of the event from a professional, ethical, and outstanding source:

As crazy as it may seem, we are now
quite possibly at a place where Biden and the Democrats will support the
appointment of a special counsel and the Republicans will oppose it. Why?
Quite simply, the situation has reached a point where it is beyond the
ability of the DOJ to keep it completely under wraps. All of the evidence that we are now seeing
has not come from the DOJ…it has come from the Republican investigative
committees in the House. How do you shut
down those investigations? You shut them
down by appointing a special counsel and drying up their information sources. Biden and the DOJ/Garland have a much better
chance of controlling a special counsel that they will select than they do of
controlling the Republicans in the House.
You cannot make this stuff up! https://nypost.com/2023/07/20/the-joe-biden-bribe-allegations-need-a-special-counsel-now/
Every day brings us closer to the
national elections of November 2024. When
you look at it a certain way, it seems ludicrous that the Democrats would want
to run Biden for re-election and the Republicans would want to run Trump in an
attempt to unseat him. However, if you
turn the prism to a different facet, the contest between Biden and Trump seems
inevitable. Has there ever…ever…been a stranger and more bizarre
presidential election?

The effort by the liberal elements
of our country to limit and control free speech is frightening. Censorship and disinformation is very real,
it is gaining strength, and it must be put down. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts
absolutely!
We are all flawed creatures by design and it is a grave mistake to
empower people in positions of authority with abilities that can allow them to exceed
their ethical and moral boundaries.
The
Judicial Branch of our government is the check and balance on the Executive and
Legislative; we are seeing this clearly demonstrated by recent Supreme Court
decisions and the Hunter Biden plea deal in particular. The integrity, the power, and the influence
of the Supreme Court must be preserved in order for our nation to survive.

The expanding overreach of
executive actions by our recent presidents, both Democrat and Republican, must
be reined in.
The Judicial branch of our government is the best hope for that balance
to be regained and maintained. But the
battle will not cease and must be contested.

Those who control the flow of
information have an inordinate influence on our culture and our society. If those individuals who are in control are
unscrupulous, they will seek to impose their ideals on the citizenry and
subvert individual liberties and rights.
This battle is well engaged.
