What on earth has happened to the moral and political sensibilities of Paul Ryan, John McCain, Jeff Flake, Jeb Bush, etc.?  All of those RINOs who are attacking President Trump for pardoning Joe Arpaio are simpering, whining traitors to the party they allegedly represent.  They should declare themselves Democrats and be done with the masquerade. 

Perhaps they should remind themselves of all the criminals and thugs that President Obama pardoned, or that President Clinton pardoned.  Trump made it clear at his rally in Phoenix that he was going to pardon the beleaguered sheriff.  The audience there was thrilled, as were the millions of people watching on television, the citizens who want our immigration laws enforced.   If there was ever anyone who deserved a pardon, along with Scooter Libby, it is Joe Arapio.   This was a no-brainer!  The man has enforced both federal and state laws for his entire career.  Arpaio was found in contempt of court after a Clinton-appointed judge, Susan Bolton,  ordered him to stop enforcing the law, detaining people he suspected (or knew) to be illegal immigrants.  It was the judge who broke the law as so many of our activist judges have over the last decade.   They do not want laws that protect our borders enforced.   Such judges are traitors to the nation as well. 

How have we come to the point at which the Republican leadership in Congress is so consistently on the wrong side of their stated  principles?  They have made common cause with the likes of the odious Sen. Chuck Schumer and the rest of the left.  They despise Trump.  That is clear to everyone.  They intend to continue their sabotage of the president, even if it means they lose their majority, even if it means they contribute to the further takeover of the country by the totalitarian left.  They are apparently just fine with the increasing restriction on free speech and the failure to identify Antifa and BLM as the terrorist groups they are.  They seem to be fine with the criminal nonsense perpetrated by the Southern Poverty Law Center. 

They seem to be fine as well with the many corruptions, past and ongoing, by the Clintons, the Obama holdovers and the crimes of George Soros since they are not interested in getting to the bottom of their many crimes.  They are not bothered by the Robert Mueller witch hunt being conducted by him and his band of leftist brothers bent on taking Trump and/or anyone in his inner circle, down and out.  We all know by now that these traitorous Republicans will cheer if Mueller finds something to tarnish the President.  Do they not realize the contempt the millions of Americans who voted for Trump feel for each and every one of them?  If they do and they do not care.  They do not honor their oath of office to represent the people who elected them and to uphold the Constitution.   

Most Republicans who voted for Romney and Ryan in 2012 now realize why they did not win: they were and are utter wimps, willing to subjugate themselves to the prevailing media sentiment.  This is the tragedy of our time.  We are assaulted by a corrupt media conglomerate twenty-four hours a day.  They are, as Trump says, purveyors of fake news.  The DNC is now a mere appendage to the New York Times, the Washington Post, etc.  CNN is pathetic; it has transformed itself into the Jerry Springer Show, broadcasting a relentless parade of angry slaves to identity politics who only see people not as individuals but as units to be categorized by race, class, and a myriad of newly-minted genders.  This is the cabal to which the Republican leadership has attached itself.  They are cowards.  Their constituents are disgusted with them all and these turncoats deserve their derision.

Have you noticed the multiple calls recently for increased gun control, despite the fact that all of the harm being done presently at leftist riots does not (yet) involve guns?  A car was used in Charlottesville, as vehicles have been used before, yet, as if unaware of the public facts, leftist politicians and activists have increased their calls for greater gun control.  A car was used in Spain, and in Britain before that, and in Paris before that, and each time, American leftists called for greater gun control in the United States.  Paul Ryan mentioned increased gun control at a public forum recently in response to a question asked of him by someone he knew.  Despite the utter lack of a connection with guns in anything to do with Charlottesville, he linked the event to gun ownership in the U.S. and concurred that more control is needed.  Weird, right?

What if they know something we don’t?  This sounds a little “out there,” but we live in a time when what is going on beneath the surface dwarfs what we see as the end result of someone’s planning.  So what if the discordant calls for gun control are because those politicians, anarchists, and activists (though I repeat myself) have foreknowledge of some kind of planned escalation of their brand of “protest” and are setting the stage for disingenuous “I told you sos’?  What if they have something of a timeline along which they either believe that things will happen or will make things happen, to escalate the blitzkrieg of media and hysteria by which they effect “change” – meaning a coup?

What if they and the media are in bed together on this, too, and have prepared their stories and narratives ahead of time?  In Charlottesville, Trump was caught flat-footed but still gave an accurate response regarding hate on many sides, but Terry McAuliffe had a complete speech ready to go, condemning the left’s shadowy enemies while omitting any mention of the Marxist combatants who came to do actual, physical harm.  No one in the media batted an eye. 

Indeed, Charlottesville itself has more than a whiff of this.  Because the KKK types obeyed the law and obtained a permit, the officials in Charlottesville and Richmond, Democrats all, knew precisely where the protesters would gather and when.  Magically, an army of radical Marxist activists materialized, sans permit, many from out of state, as has been confirmed, to confront those who were obeying the law, even if they were saying or believed objectionable things.  When the two factions had been allowed within striking distance of each other by local authorities, who ensured they were not more safely separated, a state of emergency was declared.  The park had to be vacated, the KKK side and the Antifa side were somehow pushed together by police despite other means of egress from the park, a mêlée ensued, and the police who herded them together suddenly were far away, watching what they had facilitated.  The media were right there.

The left, it seems, has orchestrated these fights.  Their surrogates are not there to protest; they are there to provoke.  They come armed, masked, and emboldened by the political support of the left.  It’s the Marxist left’s goon squad, there to ensure that one side speaks, one side controls, and the other side stays quiet or is punished.  Liberal mayors and governors seem disinterested in preventing the violence, even ahead of time.  Police officers report, as in Baltimore and Charlottesville, that they were told to “stand down,” though they knew that harm could have been prevented if they’d been allowed to do their jobs. 

The obvious next step in the string of events being put into effect by the left is a confrontation involving guns.  They seem to want, indeed, to have foreknowledge, that someone at one of these events will use a gun, perhaps one of their own pretending to be an opponent, or maybe a bystander will be threatened and will protect himself and those with him.  Regardless, the purge of the Second Amendment will take off as never before.  Imagine the hysterical, unhinged screaming that an Alt-Right lunatic finally proved all the leftists right and took a shot.  What happened won’t matter.  Truth will be rejected.  The narrative will be everything. 

I fully recall that Republicans have already been shot on a baseball field, but the left won’t permit that discussion.  Even if they do, and even if it is pointed out that a leftist has already crossed that threshold without those on the right responding in kind, it won’t matter.  The false narrative will brook no exceptions.  The right will be blamed for what the left planned, and the calls will go out nationwide for bans and confiscations.

Seeing the unprecedented dishonesty we have seen over the last nine years, practiced by unethical zealots who see their opportunity to gain full control over the wealth of an entire nation, is this too ridiculous to imagine?  I don’t think so.  Conversely, if there isn’t something going on, why are we suddenly being prepared to receive a new surge for gun “control,” bans, and confiscation?

On the other hand, what if the crises don’t happen?  Well, then the left fabricates them.  We saw this clearly in the days and weeks following the election, as dozens of leftists utterly made up hoaxes about being assaulted, or insulted, or seeing churches burn, none of which turned out to be true.  What if, as we saw with the fake “Trump supporters are racist” meme, the left gets tired of waiting for an event that doesn’t come and makes it happen?   In this day and age, with the malice and insanity of the left on full display, who thinks this is not within the realm of possibility?

I hope I’m wrong, but the left is determined to continue the philosophical movements of the Obama years despite its loss.  Leftists don’t care about elections.  They care about raw power, intimidation, disinformation, and corruption.  The wealth of America is a goal well worth lying and cheating for if you’re on the left.  What’s another constitutional right sacrificed?  It’s not as though they’ll be around much longer anyway if they win.
