White House to host second democracy summit next March
The Hill ^ | 11/29/2022 | BRETT SAMUELS

Posted on 11/29/2022 12:21:05 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

The White House announced Tuesday it will host a second summit on democracy next year, following up on efforts to push back on authoritarianism and present a united front among democratic nations.

“As President Biden has said, we know democracy remains the best tool humankind has to unleash our collective potential and deliver our security and prosperity for all,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters aboard Air Force One. “That’s why he’s made strengthening democracy a cornerstone of both his domestic and international agenda.”

The second democracy summit will take place March 29 and 30. Costa Rica, the Netherlands, Zambia and South Korea will act as co-hosts, Jean-Pierre said. Government leaders and private sector officials from many of the attending countries will take part in the summit.

We are a constitutional republic, NOT a democracy! What will it take to convince people of that?!

...and by “democracy”, they mean totalitarianism.

“… following up on efforts to push back on authoritarianism.. “

They have zero sense of irony.

They call us a ‘democracy’ because that’s what they want to change us into.

Democracy, Democrat style, is socialism, communism, fascism, totalitarianism, authoritarianism, intolerance, bias, and bigotry.

Have I left any out?

In a democracy, the mob rules and those in the minority end up with no rights. Christians, conservatives, etc.

The #1 meaning of the word Democracy is to refer to a democratically elected republic.

That’s what everyone but you understands is meant by Democracy.

Get with the times. What you mean by Democracy is now referred to as a “True Democracy”.

The Athenians learned that true democracy is national governance and control by the riff raff.

Many of the City States are presently in control of the democratic riff raff that have voted themselves the wealth that they as inferiorists can’t develop for themselves.

It’s the big lie told often enough that a large portion of
the populace just thinks we are a Democracy.

Meanwhile, it looks like the GOP might fall for some promise and assist Joe during the lame duck when they want to rush things thru while they have better numbers.

McCarthy is hoping Joey Basement goes to the border with him. Looks like McCarthy hasn’t been paying attention.

“following up on efforts to push back on authoritarianism”

Like Arizona telling the counties that haven’t certified their “election” that they will be guilty of Class 6 Felonies if they don’t certify it today? That sort of authoritarianism?

Or POTUS single-handedly cancelling a half trillion of debt to buy votes? That sort of authoritarianism?

Or POTUS saying he is going to totally destroy the fossil fuel industry? That sort of authoritarianism?

Or is he just going to discuss how to stop conservative families from attending school board meetings? That sort of authoritarianism?

These people don’t care about anything so trivial as definitions. They couldn’t care less about democracy, for that matter. These sham meetings are all a front for coordinating the next steps in the imposition of the great reset.

Democracy, Mobocracy or mob rule.
That’s not how we roll.

Biden stole 2020 and we all know it. He makes me sick every time he talks about “democracy”. He doesn’t give damn!

Democracy in America has been re-dfined by the left and we are not calling them out on it.

Democracy in America is not a few registered voters voting 2 or 2 times a year foe tweedle dee or tweedl dum government employee wannabes.

Democracy in America is 100% of voters voting everyday where to live, where to work, where to worship, wheree to play, where to buy.

E

Everyveryone votes. Citizen, non-citizen, E

Yes he’s the front man for the most dangerous thing the country ever seen coming down the pike.
Democrats always have a front name for their actions.
