In the Fight

First, let me start out by reminding the goose-stepping list-makers of the left that my last name contains two H’s. I just want to make sure that everyone knows that it was me who supported President Donald Trump and not some other guy.

I write this in Las Vegas, where I answered Ric Grenell’s call to come out and help with the Nevada post-election chaos. I’m not going to talk about specifics here, but I’ve seen individual and systemic irregularities that are sometimes shocking. The idea that we are suppose to just shrug and accept this fiasco and go on as if there was nothing wrong with this election is a sure way to guarantee that these same issues will arise again and again and again.

Maybe that’s the plan.

Actually, not “maybe.” That is the plan. And trying to shame us in to acquiescing is part of it. They spent four years insisting that President Trump’s election was “illegitimate,” and now are feigning shock when we react to the election they think gets the results they prefer with the same kind of disgust we would experience seeing Jeffrey Toobin’s browser history.

Reject the gaslighting. This election was not normal. It was not regular. It was not worthy of your blind deference. Is it some sort of coincidence that all the problems arose in big urban centers in swing states run exclusively by Democrats? That they flooded the electorate with uncontrolled ballots? That they just stopped counting on election night, often with President Trump ahead? That they just kept counting until Biden was allegedly ahead?

Texas could do it right in one night. Florida could do it. The swing states? Not so much.

How come every iffy thing we saw inevitably benefited Biden?

The weirdly anomalous results – major down-ballot GOP pick-ups but an alleged razor thin Biden win – only make the whole thing less explicable. Regardless, our repudiation of Botox Nancy does show that our movement remains powerful. We might be down, but we’re not out.

I expect that there will be more legal wrangling to come over these irregularities, and there should be. We have a right to an election system where we can trust that we have counted every legal vote – and no others. Can you say we did in 2020? I can’t. And anyone who does is playing you.

But these shenanigans are okay with the Establishment. They will tell you they are shocked – shocked! – that anyone might have questions. On the Democrat side, we’re supposed to believe that the same people who created the Russia hoax, who framed General Flynn, and who accused Justice Kavanaugh of being a teen rapist would suddenly draw some sort of line at engaging in electoral shenanigans. The fact is that the Democrats did everything they could to ensure that exactly what happened happened. And the media, even some that was supposed to have our back, insisted we just defer to the protestations of regularity.

Defer this.

And some on our side let out sighs of relief, hoping they can move back to business as usual with those irritating Trump voters gone. Our movement has always been about disrupting the comfortable arrangements that let the powerful prosper at the expense of the rest of us. It has also been about resisting the malicious attacks on our traditions and values by jerks posing as our moral superiors. Some of them are Republicans. And they wish we would just shut up and keep paying taxes, fighting their dumb wars, and voting as directed.

Except we are not gone. We’re still here and now we’re really mad. It’s not until 2022 that we can take out our rage on the Democrats, but the Republicans who heard duty call and let it go to voicemail will be hearing from us now. Ditto our alleged allies in the media – we know when we’re being gaslighted. And we’re done with it.

All you pols who were AWOL in this fight, we can’t wait to vote against you in the primaries. By the way, any of you see any of the Bushes out there fighting for us the way we fought for them in 2000? Me neither. I saw Obama out there. George W. or Jeb? Nah. Admittedly, their support of Trump would have made some of us less supportive of Trump, but they could have sent a message to the softs that all of us Republicans needed to come home and rally around this president like we rallied around W. But they didn’t. We had their backs and they stabbed ours. Oh, and thanks Mitt for being the very youest you you could be. When we could have used your whiny support in challenging these irregularities, you did exactly what we would expect and sold us out. I want my vote back.

I’ve watched first-hand some people really stand up and fight. Ric Grenell has been a superstar. Adam Laxalt of Nevada has never wavered. Matt Schlapp, who runs CPAC, has been firing on all cylinders. Others elsewhere have been there too. There’s one theme – protect the process and count every legal vote.

And this is where the fight is, here, now, and win or lose we have to fight it or this planned chaos will become the norm. We can’t let that happen.

This is our country. We will not just give it up.

We should water the tree of liberty if necessary. It’s that important.

The Dems are merely the go between for the Chinese to control and alter the election for their benefit. The Chinese have spent billions for Biden to win this election because it is the stepping stone for the Renmindi to become the Worlds Reserve Currency. Then the American Dollar will become similar to the Peso, virtually worthless on the International Circuity of Trade. Then Biden will be cast aside as he has nothing to offer the American people other than to smile and play grabass with women. His dementia is becoming more obvious daily,,,,,,Suck it up America, you are being had.

Biden’s America will be
like Chicago’s Cabrini-Green,
also known as,
“Little Hell”.
by Chuck Ness
November 8, 2020

What I am telling you is not hyperbole, and it’s not scare mongering. It is a fact. If Biden accomplishes even half of what he is promising to do, we can expect the future of America to be lost. You can look at Venezuela today, because that is what pure Socialism creates. The only winners are those in control, and the richest of the rich.

All you need to do is look at the policies implemented by Hugo Chavez after he stole the election in Venezuela. In the 1980’s, it was the most advanced, productive country in South America. Within a few years of power, Chavez’s policies turned it into a basket case. Everything Chavez did in Venezuela, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris promise, and then some, for the citizens in the United States. The first thing Chavez did was increase the number of judges on the High Court so his changes were constitutional. From there, everything went down hill for the citizens.

Mind you, if we do not stop the theft of this election, everything you ever hoped for and dreamed of will vanish. Don’t complain though, because your right to seek redress from the government will have vanished. As we all know, they are even in the process of stealing US Senate seats. Once they do, like Chavez, Biden and the Democrats will increase the number of SC Justices from 9 to 12. Thus they will have a seven to five majority rule. Then you can kiss your constitutional rights goodbye. Just as it happened in Venezuela.

Along with increasing the number of Judges on the SC, Biden and the Democrats will also create two new states out of Washington DC, and Puerto Rico. This would increase their number of Senators by four. Say good by to ever seeing another pro-life, pro-2nd Amendment, God fearing, Constitutionalist judge appointed to the US Supreme Court. Not to mention the thousands of activist Judges they would appoint to the lower courts system. America, as we know it today, will cease to exist.

Gone will be your 1st Amendment right to express your opinions, because when you say anything they dislike, it will be considered hate speech. just look at how they have already done so on College campuses, and Social Media.

Gone will be your Religious freedom, to assemble. Don’t believe me? All they need to do is claim another pandemic and shut us down. Look what Democrat Governors have done to the right to religious assembly in their States. Oh, and be ready for the US Supreme Court to rule that many things in the Bible are hate speech. Christ’s people will be persecuted. Pastors around the country will be locked up for violating hate speech laws if they fail to pay the exuberant fines. Which in turn will wipe out their financial ability to even stay open.

Gone will be your 2nd Amendment right to own weapons. Once the High Court removes your right to bear arms, they will confiscate all weapons. Those who fail to comply will be arrested, or shot for resisting. You know the Democrats have had an eye on the 2nd Amendment for years. Well, they win, we lose. Simple, no more needs to be said on it.

Gone will be any border security. The Wall Trump has been building? It will come down, and what doors there are, will be opened for anyone who so desires to come in. Oh, and we will pay for everything the illegals coming in need for survival. This mass migration will decimate our ability to ever vote Democrats out of office. Can you say California? What you witnessed in this election, will be the norm. Every individual in the US will recieve a ballot to vote regardless of who they are. Game OVER for fair elections.

The Green New Deal (GND) will be implemented. Even if they cannot get enough Democrats to go along, they will just do a presidential executive order and with the High Court stacked, they will make the GND the law of the land by Judicial decision. The GND will cost over 100 trillion dollars. It would devestate the economy and plunge the country into a depression that will make the Great depression seem like Utopia. Hear are some things that will happen.
The elimination of all fossil fuel and nuclear energy production. This alone will wipe out 90% of a energy needed to run the country. Another nail in America’s coffin.

Eliminate 99 percent of cars. Well, after they eliminate all fossil fuel production you won’t have anything to run those cars on anyway. It will also eliminate planes, transportation trucks, Ships, Boats,

GND calls for the destruction of every building in the United States, and then rebuild new more envoronmemntally friendly ones. I repeat, “every building in America.” That includes every home, factory, and apartment building must be torn down and rebuilt. Another Game ending idea.

Replace air travel with public rail transportation. Good luck On this one Hawaii.

A government-guaranteed job for everyone with full benefits. What jobs? All factories will be eliminated by the destruction of fossil fuels. That worked real well for the Soviet Union didn’t it? In China, they just create viruses to kill off huge populations to they can be assured people have jobs.

Free education for life. No, free forced indoctrination for life.

Free money. Just think on this one for a moment. Nothing needs to be added.

GND will ban the production and consumption of all meat. Better keep an eye on your pet. Your neighbors are going to be hungry. Pets in Argentina are no where to be found. because they already ate them.

The GND promises that the government will provide housing for everyone. Remember, they are going to tear down the house you now own and live in, so you will be forced into Government housing that is built to their environmental standards. Does anyone remember Cabrini Green?

Things are not looking good, but I am keeping the faith that Trump has his people on top of things, and what Satan’s minions meant for evil, God will turn into a blessing for us. However, if we lose this, then it means that GOD has passed judgement upon the United States.

As they gaslight us and insist we go along with this obvious mugging, I am remembering the phrase Ayn Rand often used: the sanction of the victim. They want us complicit in our own destruction. I’m with Kurt: HELL NO.

Re # 5: You are absolutely correct. Many Trump supporters, as red-pilled as they are, do not grasp the consequences of what happened.

The communists have won, or so it appears. And they won without identifying themselves to the gullible.

America will become Hell in short order if the fraud is not addressed definitively and Trump wins.

WE have to give up to let the Dems steal this.

Trump isn’t conceding. He is THE fighter the republicans have dreamed of for decades, and prayed for, and God finally gave us a fighter.

If we don’t at least stand by Trump in the fight then we don’t deserve him.

Even more than 2016,,,,

this could still be ,,,

THE BEST ELECTION EVER!!

AGAIN!
