I often refer to the English Satirist's: "Burning of a Roast Pig" to highlight the idiocy of liberals, assorted radicals and Democrats. Now even Time Magazine has published their version of the 2020 election effort to allegedly saveAmerican Democracy by destroying it.
In the English satire the owner roasted his pig by burning down his home.
Destroying Democracy in Order to Save It
Time magazine’s “The Secret History of the Shadow
Campaign that Saved the 2020 Election” by Molly Ball is supposed to
come off as an epic tale of left-wing institutions swooping in to save
democracy from untold chaos in the aftermath of the election but reads more
like a confessional where the storyteller and her informants unwittingly reveal
that the election was indeed rigged.
Ball stresses the “shadow effort [was]
dedicated not to winning the vote, but to ensuring it would be free and fair,
credible and uncorrupted.” In other words, they were not attempting to
defeat Trump, but were focused on ensuring free and fair elections to prevent
chaos if Trump were elected or refused to concede. This required a
coordinated effort among a staggering number of left-wing organizations, the
media and tech, titans of industry, an army of activists, #NeverTrumpers, and a
whole lotta Benjamins, baby.
Through extensive interviews and access to
documents, Ball lays out, in earnest, the game plan with absolutely no awareness
that this non-admission of wrongdoing is actually an admission that bolsters
what the President has been saying all along (and is vital to his defense
against this second impeachment):
They got states to
change voting systems and laws and helped secure hundreds of millions in public
and private funding. They fended off voter-suppression lawsuits, recruited
armies of poll workers and got millions of people to vote by mail for the first
time. They successfully pressured social media companies to take a harder line
against disinformation and used data-driven strategies to fight viral smears.
They executed national public-awareness campaigns that helped Americans
understand how the vote count would unfold over days or weeks, preventing
Trump’s conspiracy theories and false claims of victory from getting more
traction. After Election Day, they monitored every pressure point to ensure Trump could not overturn the result.
None of this could have happened
organically. Democracy, you see, has to be manipulated in order for the
good work of democracy to happen:
“Every attempt to
interfere with the proper outcome of the election was defeated,” says Ian
Bassin, co-founder of Protect Democracy, a nonpartisan rule-of-law advocacy
group. “But it’s massively important for the country to understand that it
didn’t happen accidentally. The system didn’t work magically. Democracy is not
self-executing.”
That’s why the
participants want the secret history of the 2020 election told, even though it
sounds like a paranoid fever dream -- a well-funded cabal of powerful people,
ranging across industries and ideologies, working together behind the scenes to
influence perceptions, change rules and laws, steer media coverage and control
the flow of information. They were not rigging the election; they were
fortifying it. And they believe the
public needs to understand the system’s fragility in order to ensure that
democracy in America endures. [Emphasis added.]
In late 2019, senior advisor to the president of
the AFL-CIO and mastermind of the shadow campaign Mike Podhorzer, was
gobsmacked when he realized the data and analytics strongly pointed to a
Trump win. That was the moment the shadow campaign was born. During
a frantic 11 p.m. Zoom meeting on election night, Podhorzer had to remind his
co-conspirators that they knew Trump would pull ahead but would ultimately lose
“as long as all the votes were
counted.” [Italics added.] “Count all votes” was critical to the
syndicate’s PR campaign and violated the norm, touted by conservatives, that
all legal votes should be
counted.
If it was foreordained that Trump would prevail,
the Democrat Cabal had to protect the people from themselves -- subverting
Democracy in order to save Democracy. So, they manipulated the election
in their favor and called it “fortifying” even though they were really
“rigging” it. They claimed the system was on the verge of collapse because Trump was going to be elected. And,
because they couldn’t admit to rigging the election, they disguised their
efforts with a massive PR campaign demanding all votes be counted to prevent
chaos.
Massive PR campaign, indeed.
They had the good fortune of COVID-19 giving
them cover for mail-in voting propaganda. BLM leadership was able to
“harness [the momentum behind the George Floyd riots] for the election.” In other words, the riots were
orchestrated to benefit Democrat candidates.
Corporate benefactors shoveled out gobs of money
(i.e., $300 million dollars from the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative) to fund a
massive reworking of state voting systems and procedures that bolstered mail-in
voting in 37 states and D.C.:
The [National Vote at Home] Institute gave secretaries of state from both parties technical advice on everything from which vendors to use to how to locate drop boxes. Local officials are the most trusted sources of election information, but few can afford a press secretary, so the institute distributed communications tool kits that tracked disinformation online and provided it to campaigns and the media so they could “out” the liars. Rather than pushing back against “toxic content” which invited more attention, they pressured platforms like Twitter and Facebook to police and remove content or suspend accounts.
Podhorzer enlisted the help of former military
officials, cabinet members, and elected officials to convince the public,
governors, AG's, and secretaries of state, that mail-in voting was safe.
Former Democrat congressman Dick Gephardt raised $20 million dollars to fund
these efforts. Now we understand why Kemp and Raffensberger in Georgia, and
Wolf and Boockvar in Pennsylvania, behaved as they did.
They refocused election security on self-policing versus reliance on law enforcement and created a force of “election defenders” who, unlike traditional poll watchers, were trained in de-escalation techniques. During early voting and on Election Day, they surrounded lines of voters in urban areas with a “joy to the polls” effort that turned the act of casting a ballot into a street party. Black organizers also recruited thousands of poll workers to ensure polling places would stay open in their communities.
In other words, they recruited a partisan army
of poll workers who were backed by partisan “election defenders” to monitor
voting and ballot counting. This is how Republicans ended up with poll
watchers who were ousted, blocked, and situated light-years away from the
count, and piles of ballots -- almost exclusively for Joe Biden -- coming out
of the woodworks in the wee hours.
As 150 left-wing organizations prepped for
violent nationwide demonstrations against a Trump steal, the AFL-CIO, the U.S.
Chamber of Commerce, and churches formed a powerful alliance with a carefully
crafted message of preventing “violence, intimidation or any other tactic that
makes us weaker as a nation.” Meanwhile, everything the shadow campaign
did was violence, intimidation and other tactics that undermined our free
elections -- classic projection.
All of this is boldly asserted in Ball’s
article. It’s not unusual for victors to brag about some feat to the
astonishment of onlookers. They become so obsessed with the righteousness of
their cause, they proudly articulate what they did with seemingly no regard for
the potential for any blowback.
The Nazis documented everything in the mistaken
belief that their national obsession with world domination and cleansing the
world of impure races was not only in Germany’s best interests, but those of
the entire world. They honestly believed history would judge them kindly.
But they were blind to the reality that, in recording their atrocities,
they wrote the script for world condemnation of their crimes against humanity.
Similarly, in their sanctimonious fervor to
boast about their role in “fortifying” the election and its aftermath, Ball’s
informants actually outed themselves as the crooks, cabalists, and conspirators
they really are. And poor Ms. Ball appears the useful idiot.
She quotes someone from the Democracy Defense
Coalition as saying:
“There’s an impulse for
some to say voters decided and democracy won. But it’s a mistake to think that
this election cycle was a show of strength for democracy. It shows how
vulnerable democracy is.”
While this can be read to mean democracy was in jeopardy until Democrats organized the shadow campaign to save democracy from a Trump second term, it’s really just a slick way of confessing to rigging the 2020 election and stealing it from Trump. Let’s hope Trump’s attorneys feature these admissions in his impeachment defense.

The Nazi's felt compelled to destroy the Jews. Is that the sick goal of Democrats vis a vis Trump? I find it most incongruous that often words are used to describe that which is the antithesis of their meaning. You would think liberalism would imply inclusiveness/tolerance when, in fact, it often is used as a clever cover for: "my way or the highway" and intolerance.
I also read where hosts of former Bush Administration folks are leaving the GOP because they equate/associate The Party with being a Trump Cult. From my perspective, I believe it is the failure of traditional/establishment "patrician" Republicans that brought about Trump's takeover of the GOP.
Papa Bush was a nice person but not particularly effective nor much different than most middle road Democrats. His son did not recognize the tribal difference between Shia's and Sunni's and, understandably, felt compelled to respond to 9/11. He made some terrible appointments in the process.
However, Obama and Hillary probably did more to cause Trump's election than any two people. and one cannot take away credit from Trump for seizing the moment and addressing the anxieties of "the forgotten man" or Hillary's equivalent of "the deplorables."
Why are Democrats Pushing Impeachment?
President Trump is now
Donald Trump, so why are Democrats demanding another impeachment? Add to
that, Trump is already out of office, the Chief Justice will not preside, and
45 senators have already objected to the questionable legality of the proceedings.
Is it pettiness, or is there another motive?
Nancy Pelosi is one of
the snidest and most petty representatives in Congress. I have personally
heard from several Democratic representatives their beliefs that Pelosi held up
critical immigration and COVID legislation that they privately supported, for
no other reason than that it might help Trump look good. They supported the
holdups because they feared retribution from Pelosi. If you want to hear
Pelosi’s partisanship, listen yourself to her opening comments during
the beginning of the House debate on Arizona’s electoral votes. Pelosi is
sufficiently petty to demand impeachment as a final boot out the door.
This is my personally favored reason and stands as a testament to the
characters of Chuck Schumer, Adam Kinzinger, Liz Cheney and others who have
joined them. While several junior Democrats may have done so out of fear,
Democratic leaders and Republicans had no good excuses.
But there could be
another reason; one that fits well with Democrats’ recent militarization of
D.C. and gross violations of our 1st Amendment rights
to speech and to assemble and the redress of grievances.
I recall a nature
documentary on the social structure of chimpanzees. The troop under study
was led by an aging but caring chimpanzee that kept watch for threats, played
with and educated the young, and was kind to the harem. I’ll refer to him
as “Don.” One day, a younger, rogue male invaded the troop and deposed
Don, I’ll call him “Joe.” Rather than killing Don, Joe kept Don around to
repeatedly demonstrate his superiority over Don. Joe, as normal for a new
alpha male, killed the infants to make the females receptive, but he also
tyrannized the young, which was highly atypical for a new chimpanzee
regime. Joe also ignored the wellbeing of the troop, favoring his own
safety and indulgences. Some of the females had difficulty accepting Joe,
and so he brutalized them, which made the entire harem fear Joe. After a
disturbing and tumultuous night, a bloodied Joe sat apart from the troop
and the harem had reinstated Don as the alpha male.
Human dictators have
learned better. They defame and erase their predecessors, such that any
comparisons are tainted by the defamation and there is no going back.
Human dictators also hide their abuses, but just enough so that their
supporters can still cheer them, while their detractors have a strong suspicion
that something bad will happen if they protest.
Pick your infamous,
tyrannical dictatorship, and the United States under Democratic rule looks a
lot like it. If someone protests Emperor Biden’s extremist executive
orders, questions his mental health, or shares the secret tomes detailing
the prima facie evidence of massive election fraud, then they
might be banned from Twitter or Facebook, or see themselves de-platformed or
sued.
A pillow manufacturer,
Michael J. Lindell, released a jaw-dropping video on foreign interference in
our elections over the last two decades, and hardly anyone knows about
it. If a link to his video were placed in this article, Google would
filter it, and Facebook and Twitter would ban anyone who linked here. To
find that video, in your address bar, type that pillow executive’s full name
with middle initial, without spaces or punctuation, and add a “.com” to the end.
Banned from Twitter and Facebook, filtered by Google and with
Parler de-platformed by Amazon, Trump has been effectively “murdered,” but that
is not enough; his accomplishments remain. When gas prices soar to $6 per gallon,
when heating bills leap from
$100 a month to $300, when the price of electricity hits $0.30 per kW-hr, when
unemployment soars to 10% without
COVID, as girl's sports become dominated by men, and
as our armed forces are thrown back into useless wars, the
People will remember how the non-COVID years of Trump were like the parting of
rain clouds after the Obama-Biden storm, and compare them to the looming great
flood of Biden-Harris.
The memory of Trump must
be destroyed completely, both his accomplishments and his character. Fake
news already spent the last four years defaming his character and attributing
his accomplishments to Obama, but only half of Americans bought the lies.
It is impossible to silence the other half. Ideally, the Democrats would
throw Trump in jail, but he hasn’t done anything illegal. The handful of
persecutors who went on fishing expeditions have
so far come up empty, as have all of the Democrats’ other anti-Trump efforts.
The Democrats are now
preparing a kangaroo court that
will possibly include a perjury trap. Rather than an impartial jurist to
supervise the proceedings, the chief justice of the Supreme Court, as required
by the Constitution, the mock trial will be led by Senator Patrick “Leaky” Leahy, who has
already proclaimed Trump guilty.
One of the House impeachment managers, Congressman Jamie Raskin, has attempted to compel Trump
to testify, even proclaiming that any refusal will be held against Trump, in
violation of the plain language of the 5th Amendment.
Strange, because Raskin sponsored the
Fifth Amendment Integrity Restoration Act. At the least, expect a
one-sided proclamation of Trump’s guilt and poor character. At the worst,
expect Democrats to subpoena Trump and then to charge Trump with contempt of
Congress when his facts contradict their truths.
Also expect Democrats to try to prevent Trump from ever holding office.
After 2020, the United
States has started to look a lot like a 1940s European socialist dictatorship,
and the second impeachment of Trump is but another example. Joe Biden has
repeatedly demonstrated signs of dementia, including mumbling instructions sent
through his earpiece and mumbling unintelligibly while being directed to
sign executive orders. It is reminiscent of the “Star Trek” episode,
“Patterns of Force,” in which John Gill was drugged and used as a puppet
“Führer,” leaving us to question whose hand is in the sock puppet?
