A dictatorship cannot take hold in America today. This country, as yet, cannot be ruled — but it can explode.

“A dictatorship cannot take hold in America today. This country, as yet, cannot be ruled — but it can explode. It can blow up into the helpless rage and blind violence of a civil war. It cannot be cowed into submission, passivity, malevolence, resignation. It cannot be ‘pushed around.’ Defiance, not obedience, is the American’s answer to overbearing authority. The nation that ran an underground railroad to help human beings escape from slavery, or began drinking on principle in the face of Prohibition, will not say ‘Yes, sir,’ to the enforcers of ration coupons and cereal prices. Not yet.” — Ayn Rand, Philosophy: Who Needs It


We are quickly approaching two key events:

  1. The sentencing of President Donald J. Trump on July 11th, 2024
  2. The 2024 Presidential election on November 5th, 2024.

Each or both could lead to an American explosion and a second Civil War.

An explosion of those who have had enough of the corruption from the the schoolhouse to the White House and from school board, to corporate boards to court rooms across America.

People are sick and tired of “Biden’s Big Government” and its ever increasing control of we the people. We the people are sick and tired of government mandates, the myths of diversity, equity and inclusion and the ever shrinking economy.

This has led to a tipping point where we now have only two parties: Patriots and Traitors.

The Patriot Party wants to restore our Constitutional Republic.

The Traitor Party wants to destroy our Constutional republic and replace it with a dictatorship, a.k.a. democracy.

SPUTNIK reported,

Forty-one percent (41%) of respondents [in a Rasmussen poll] believe that a second US civil war is likely in the next five years, the poll report said. The figure includes 16% of respondents who believe that a second civil war is very likely, the poll report said.

However, nearly half of respondents, 49%, believe that a civil war is not likely within the next five years, including 20% who believe it is not likely at all, the poll report said. Ten percent (10%) of respondents are unsure, the poll report added.

A greater proportion of respondents believe that a civil war is more likely to occur if US President Joe Biden is reelected than if former US President Donald Trump wins the White House — 37% and 25%, respectively — the poll report said.

The Sentencing of Donald J. Trump

For the first time in American history a former President of these United States has been convicted in an American court in New York.

wrote,

Democrat-appointed Judge Juan Merchan went out of his way to stack the deck in favor of Manhattan Democrat District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s false criminal case against former President Donald Trump for allegedly falsifying business records. Merchan was allegedly randomly assigned the Trump and Bannon cases by the New York court system. That is a lie — he was also assigned to the politically motivated cases of Trump CFO on tax fraud as well as his War Room Trump advocate Steve Bannon whom he recently sentenced to 4 months for allegedly lying to Congress.

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) has filed a complaint with the New York State Unified Court System over the claim that Merchan was randomly assigned the case.

“If justices were indeed being randomly assigned in the Criminal Term, the probability of two specific criminal cases being assigned to the same justice is quite low, and the probability of three specific criminal cases being assigned to the same justice is infinitesimally small,” Stefanik wrote. “And yet, we see Acting Justice Merchan on all three cases.”

Merchan is set to preside over criminal cases against the Trump Organization and former Trump White House Advisor Steve Bannon, “One cannot help but suspect that the ‘random selection’ at work in the assignment of Acting Justice Merchan, a Democrat Party donor, to these cases involving prominent Republicans, is in fact not random at all,” Stefanik added.

Victor Davis Hanson is a classicist and historian at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University in an article titled The Myth That Biden Had Nothing to Do With the Prosecutions of Trump wrote,

The five criminal and civil prosecutions of former President Donald Trump all prompt heated denials from Democrats that President Joe Biden and Democrat operatives had a role in any of them.

But Biden has long let it be known that he was frustrated with his own Department of Justice’s federal prosecutors for their tardiness in indicting Trump.

Biden was upset because any delay might mean that his rival Trump would not be in federal court during the 2024 election cycle. And that would mean he could not be tagged as a “convicted felon” by the November election while being kept off the campaign trail.

Politico has long prided itself on its supposed insider knowledge of the workings of the Biden administration. Note that it was reported earlier this February that a frustrated Biden “has grumbled to aides and advisers that had [Attorney General Merrick] Garland moved sooner in his investigation into former President Donald Trump’s election interference, a trial may already be underway or even have concluded…”

If there was any doubt about the Biden administration’s effort to force Trump into court before November, Politico further dispelled it—even as it blamed Trump for Biden’s anger at Garland: “That trial still could take place before the election and much of the delay is owed not to Garland but to deliberate resistance put up by the former president and his team.”

Note in passing how a presidential candidate’s legal right to oppose a politicized indictment months before an election by his opponent’s federal attorneys is smeared by Politico as “deliberate resistance.”

This was a set up from the beginning to keep a political opponent from running for public office.

Lavrentiy Beria, the most ruthless and longest-serving secret police chief in Joseph Stalin’s reign of terror in Russia and Eastern Europe, bragged that he could prove criminal conduct on anyone, even the innocent. “Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime” was Beria’s infamous boast.

Beria and Garland, Joseph Biden and Joseph Stalin have much in common.

We the people can restore what Any Rand saw about America when she wrote, “I can say — not as a patriotic bromide, but with full knowledge of the necessary metaphysical, epistemological, ethical, political and esthetic roots — that the United States of America is the greatest, the noblest and, in its original founding principles, the only moral country in the history of the world.”

We must regain our morality, nobility and founding principles on November 5th, 2024.

There is no other choice!

Democrat-appointed Judge Juan Merchan went out of his way to stack the deck in favor of Manhattan Democrat District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s false criminal case against former President Donald Trump for allegedly falsifying business records. Merchan was allegedly randomly assigned the Trump and Bannon cases by the New York court system. That is a lie — he was also assigned to the politically motivated cases of Trump CFO on tax fraud as well as his War Room Trump advocate Steve Bannon whom he recently sentenced to 4 months for allegedly lying to Congress.

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) has filed a complaint with the New York State Unified Court System over the claim that Merchan was randomly assigned the case.

“If justices were indeed being randomly assigned in the Criminal Term, the probability of two specific criminal cases being assigned to the same justice is quite low, and the probability of three specific criminal cases being assigned to the same justice is infinitesimally small,” Stefanik wrote. “And yet, we see Acting Justice Merchan on all three cases.”

Merchan is set to preside over criminal cases against the Trump Organization and former Trump White House Advisor Steve Bannon, “One cannot help but suspect that the ‘random selection’ at work in the assignment of Acting Justice Merchan, a Democrat Party donor, to these cases involving prominent Republicans, is in fact not random at all,” Stefanik added.

Last year, Merchan oversaw the tax fraud case against Trump’s company and former Trump CFO Allen Weisselberg who pled guilty in a plea deal and served as a star witness for the prosecution at the Manhattan trial. Trump was not a defendant. Merchan sentenced Weisselberg to five months in prison, and stated he would have handed down a harsher sentence if he hadn’t already agreed to the plea deal. Two business entities controlled by Trump were found guilty of 17 counts of tax fraud and falsifying business record and ordered to pay the maximum penalty of $1.61 million. During the proceedings, Merchan shut down the suggestion from the Trump Organization’s legal team that the case was a politically motivated prosecution against the former president and told attorneys to focus on the specific charges.

“I will not allow you in any way to bring up a selective prosecution claim, or claim this is some sort of novel prosecution,” Merchan said.

Merchan donated to President Joe Biden’s 2020 Presidential campaign, as well as other Democrat groups opposing Trump’s re-election.

His daughter works for a Democrat political consulting company that has raised millions of dollars off the Trump trial for clients like Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA).

These and other politically motivated cases have involved leftist AG Merrit Garland’s Department of IN-JUSTICE has been involved in state level cases; witnesses for defense have not been allowed; gag orders have been in effect; instructions to juries were very bias and guaranteed guilty verdicts; defense lawyers were hushed up in attempts to intimidate and other unconstitutional actions have been taken.

These corrupt trials will continue to backfire on these Judges and Prosecutors.

Already, donations to Trump campaign have increased as a result.

Even more damaging to Democrats is the fact that a majority of law abiding Americans have lost respect for and confidence in a broken system of Justice.

LAWFARE 101: Blue Laws for Red Citizens

“If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face — forever.” ― George Orwell, 1984

“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” ― Martin Luther King Jr.

“Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.” ― Voltaire


Americans have been watching, with growing interest, the Lawfare being perpetuated by so called judges and prosecutors against President Donald J. Trump. Currently there are 4 criminal and 3 civil suits against President Trump.

These mulitple political persecutions have done two things:

  1. Made President Trump stronger both personally and as a presidential candidate and,
  2. Made President Trump a martyr, because many of us, we the people, understand what he’s going through and understand that we are next.

President Trump is increasingly viewed by Americans as a man who they can trust to do the right things for them.

Each of these Lawfare “show trials” have made him more popular than in 2016 and 2020.

Additionally, President Trump is benefiting from $ billions in free publicity and extensive media coverage.

On August 25, 2023 Reuters reported, “Trump, who had over 88 million followers when Twitter banned him, posted a photo on Thursday of the mug shot with the words: ‘ELECTION INTERFERENCE! NEVER SURRENDER!’ The post garnered more than 14 million views 50 minutes after going live.”

A reader sent us a link to an article published on professor Victor Davis Hanson’s The Blade of Perseus website. It gives a good run down on the current seven show trials and is provided here to understand what is really going on — LAWFARE.

You see, Trump isn’t the target, you and I are.


Blue Laws for Red Citizens

Victor Davis Hanson
American Greatness

One state prosecutor and one civilian plaintiff have already won huge fines and damages from Donald Trump that may, with legal costs, exceed $500 million.

Trump awaits further civil and criminal liability in three other federal, state, and local indictments.

There are eerie commonalities in all these five court cases involving plaintiff E. Jean Carroll, Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg, New York Attorney General Letitia James, federal special counsel Jack Smith, and Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis.

One, they are either unapologetically left-wing or associated with liberal causes. They filed their legal writs in big-city, left-wing America—Atlanta, New York, Washington—where liberal judges and jury pools predominate in a manner not characteristic of the country at large.

Two, they are overtly political. Bragg, James, and Willis have either campaigned for office or raised campaign funds by promising to get or even destroy Donald Trump.

Carroll’s suit was funded by left-wing billionaire Reid Hoffman.

Smith sued to rush his court schedule in hopes of putting Trump on trial before the November election.

Three, there would not be any of these cases had Donald Trump not run for the presidency or not been a conservative.

Carroll’s suit bypassed statute of limitation restrictions by prompting the intervention of a left-wing New York legislator. He passed a special bill, allowing a one-year window to waive the statute of limitations for sexual assault claims from decades past.

Until Trump, no New York prosecutor like James had ever filed a civil suit against a business for allegedly overvaluing real estate assets to obtain loans that bank auditors approved and were paid back in full, on time, and with sizable interest profits to the lending institutions.

Alvin Bragg bootstrapped a Trump private non-disclosure agreement into a federal campaign violation in a desperate effort to find something on Trump.

Smith is also charging Trump with insurrectionary activity. But Trump had never been so charged with insurrection, much less convicted of it.

Willis strained to find a way to criminalize Trump’s complaints about his loss of Georgia in the 2020 national election. She finally came up with a racketeering charge, usually more applicable to Mafiosi and drug cartels.

Four, in all these cases, the charges could have been equally applicable to fellow left-wing public figures and officials.

Joe Biden, like Trump, was accused of sexual assault decades earlier by former staffer Tara Reade. Yet Reade was torn apart by the media and the left for inconsistencies in her memory. By contrast, the wildly inconsistent and amnesiac E. Jean Carroll won $83 million from Trump.

Jack Smith created the precedent of charging former president Trump for unlawfully removing classified files to his private residence.

But the government simultaneously did not charge Joe Biden for similar offenses. Yet Biden had removed files not for two years but for more than 30. He stored them not in one location but several.

His rickety garage was a mess, not a secure family compound like Trump’s estate. Moreover, Biden did so while a senator and vice president, without any presidential authority to declassify almost any presidential document he wished.

Biden never came forward to report the crime for over thirty years—until Trump was charged. Indeed, he was caught on tape six years ago, admitting to his ghostwriter that he possessed classified files but never reported it.

Bragg might have noticed that both Hillary Clinton (fined $113,000) and Barack Obama (fined $350,000) broke campaign financing laws. Neither was subject to federal criminal charges by local prosecutors.

An array of left-wing celebrities, politicians, 2004 House Members, former Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA), and failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams have all recently challenged elections. They sought either to delay or redo ballot counting or, on the federal level, to sidetrack electors to ignore popular votes in their respective states.

These lawfare cases are part of other efforts that were highly partisan and without merit. Recall the Trump “Russian collusion” hoax and the “Russian disinformation” laptop farce.

In another first, some blue states are suing to take Trump’s name off the ballot for “insurrection,” a crime for which he has never been charged.

Total up the deaths, damage, and length of the summer 2020 Antifa/BLM riots. Then compare the tally to the one-day January 6 riot.

The former proved far more lethal, long-lasting, and destructive. Yet very few of the 14,000 arrested rioters in 2020 were ever prosecuted, much less convicted.

By contrast, the Biden administration sought to jail hundreds for crimes allegedly committed on January 6, such as “illegal parading.”

We are entering a dangerous era in America.

Ideology and party affiliations increasingly determine guilt and punishment. Opponents are first targeted, and then laws are twisted and redefined to convict them.

The left is waging lawfare with the implicit message to political opponents: either keep quiet or suffer the consequences.

Kavanaugh Allegations: Aimed at Justice or at a Justice?

Why would someone sit on an allegation for nearly six weeks, if were about a subject that everyone is supposed to be concerned about? Perhaps it’s because they are more concerned about how to use the allegation than whether or not the allegation is true.

Welcome to Washington, DC where such political theater is regularly on display, the latest episode being Senate Democrats’ efforts to derail Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh with an eleventh-hour allegation of inappropriate behavior from more than thirty years ago. Whether or not the allegation is true is one thing. We should always be concerned about the truth. But how it is being used is another — and methods have the right to be questioned.

“It’s disturbing that these uncorroborated allegations from more than 35 years ago, during high school, would surface on the eve of a committee vote after Democrats sat on them since July,” a Senate Judiciary Committee statement read. “If Ranking Member Feinstein and other Committee Democrats took this claim seriously, they should have brought it to the full Committee’s attention much earlier.”

Quite true. Instead, writes the committee, Democrats “said nothing during two joint phone calls with the nominee in August, four days of lengthy public hearings, a closed session for all committee members with the nominee where sensitive topics can be discussed and in more than 1,300 written questions. Sixty-five senators met individually with Judge Kavanaugh during a nearly two-month period before the hearing began, yet Feinstein didn’t share this with her colleagues ahead of many of those discussions.”

At the same time, many (including many women who knew him years ago) have firmly vouched for his character and integrity. Additionally, as my friend Franklin Graham noted, “Judge Kavanaugh has been through 6 incredibly thorough FBI vettings and a multitude of other inquiries, and nothing even related to these 36-year-old allegations has ever come up.” We know that many progressives and opponents of our Constitution as it is written would love nothing more than for this whole process to be derailed. Given the way this has unfolded, we have every reason to believe Kavanaugh’s opponents don’t care about justice; they care about a justice — specifically, that he not make it onto the Court.

As Franklin reminds us, we must “[p]ray for Judge Kavanaugh, Mrs. Ford who is making this accusation, their families, and for wisdom and discernment for Senate leadership dealing with these post-hearing, previously unreported, allegations from his distant teenage years.” Indeed, in a situation like this, let us all pray — for the good of our Constitution and our nation — that truth, justice, and righteousness would prevail.
