NONE OF THIS IS AN ACCIDENT
bob lonsberry.com ^ | 11/20/2021 | Bob Lonsberry

An idiot is right half the time.

It’s just the odds, like flipping a coin. If you don’t know what the hell you’re doing, you’re nonetheless going to get it right every now and then just by random chance.

An idiot is right half the time.

But when somebody’s wrong all the time, that’s something else. That’s not an accident, that’s on purpose. That’s not stupidity, that’s evil.

That’s a plan.

And that’s what’s going on with Biden and the Democrats. They are crashing the country. They are triggering systemic failures across the society and economy. And they are doing it on purpose.

That’s the only plausible explanation.

Nobody is this stupid by accident.

Nobody could wreak this much havoc, or destroy this much security and prosperity this quickly, without intentionally setting out to do so.

Through executive orders and disastrous decisions, Biden and the Democrats have pushed several vast national systems into calamity or collapse. Healthcare, gasoline, transportation, consumer products availability and affordability, national defense, international relationships, labor, food supply, public safety. By any metric, 2021 has turned out to be the most unstable and potentially disastrous American year in generations.

They lit the fire of inflation and tossed it like a bomb into the lives of hundreds of millions of Americans.

And none of this has to do with the pandemic. Covid isn’t the cause, it’s the pretense. It is a convenient excuse to launch a long-planned attack on American liberty and prosperity. And it has worked.

And every indicator is downward. Every estimation of the burgeoning problems indicates that this is just the beginning and that any sort of recovery is more than a year away. With the turning of a calendar page, America has become less secure, less prosperous, and apparently intent on taking a big step out of the First World.

That’s not an accident.

That’s a hit job.

And that’s what progressivism is about. This is world socialism doing to the United States what it has long promised to do. This is no secret conspiracy. This was all done out in the open.

This is what fighting climate change looks like. This is what economic equality looks like. You can’t fix the world without breaking America. At least that’s what the progressives believe.

Socialism doesn’t stop at the water’s edge, it circles the globe. From the progressives’ perspective, the United States is not the light of the world, it is the blight of the world, a massive cancer disproportionately consuming, polluting and possessing. If socialism means taking from the rich to give to the poor, the United States is rich and everybody else is poor. We are not the society to be stabilized or enriched, we are the society to be looted. The Democrat plan is not to just redistribute wealth in the United States, but to redistribute wealth from the United States.

We have had our turn. We must fall that others may rise. Americans, with a lifestyle that includes meat and air conditioning and a house and a car, are rapacious hogs at the trough who must be brought down a peg. Any number of climate change experts have said that the key to saving the planet is deflating American prosperity and consumption.

And that is what the Democrats are doing.

The cost of gasoline almost doubled in a year. Natural gas projected to be 40% more expensive this year than last. Grocery stores with bare shelves and food costs outstripping family budgets. A transportation system locked in place with a quarter of a million cargo containers floating at anchor offshore. Hospitals, group homes and nursing homes pushed into near uselessness by vaccine mandates and regulations, with genuine access to quality healthcare no longer being an American reality. Businesses of every stripe crippled and closing because of a shortage of labor, the pool of workers reduced by generations of Democrat inducement to indolence. International humiliation in Afghanistan followed by challenges in the South China Sea and hyperglide vehicles screaming downward at Mach 5 from outer space.

And the destabilizing Democrat mandates continue, from vaccines to the outlawing of the internal combustion engine. From the division of our society to the denunciation of our history. From the race baiting to the school destroying.

The change you voted for is death.

The death of America as a land of freedom and plenty.

You’re going to have to get used to it, they said at the White House. There is a new reality. Maybe you’ll make some nice friends in the bread line.

And maybe we’ll avoid the millions of deaths from starvation and enforcement that followed the progressive takeovers of Russia and China. Maybe we’ll fare better than Venezuela.

Or maybe we won’t. Only time will tell.

But one thing is for sure.

None of this is an accident.

The Left is run by the spirit of antichrist who is running things by them.

The remedy is hearts repenting from trusting in man and his government and turning again to trusting the Lord for his help and provision.

Help, my tag line is missing. It said,”you can vote yourself into socialism or communism, but you have to shoot your way out of it.”

What is your tag line?
Is it ‘kill them all and let God sort them out’?

Because that is the only thing that would really work.

I have been warning for some time that these people are not Stupid, it isn’t coincidence or happenstance, it is calculated and intentional, they are just Plain EVIL. The mindset of the typical Liberal Progressive Democrat hasn’t changed since 1860. ENSLAVE your Fellow Man

The democrats have come to the place of the abusive owning partner, with the long-tired but indicative of next action: “If I can’t have you, no one will! BLAM!”

To the contrary.

1) I fully believe Biden and the Democrats can indeed be stupid 100% of the time.

2) If they did plan the supply chain crisis, then I have to give them credit for being smarter than I thought they were.

Trump wanted to end our dependence on China by raising tariffs. I believe Trump was limited in how much he was able to do by the political circus surrounding him.

What better way to end our dependence on China but by holding up goods at the coast. If you can't get goods from China in a timely fashion, then maybe you'll start sourcing from American suppliers.

I'm not sure the supply chain crisis is sustainable, but if seeing our PPE and medicines dry up during Coronavirus, then realizing our cars and computers are dependent on chips and the more commercial aspects of Christmas are dependent on China should be another wake up call.

We need to quit depending on China for anything.

On the bright side, China's temper tantrum at Australia for suggesting the Wuhan lab be investigated, caused China to cut itself off from Australian coal. With the result that China now is having black outs and can't keep it's factories going.

Well, I guess there is always hope that if we aren't willing to shoot China in the foot in self defense, they are likely to do it themselves.

The following is from another thread and is applicable here as well:

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Friday that Democrats are within striking distance of winning a long-sought agreement on President Biden’s sweeping domestic agenda.

Returning to the Capitol from a White House breakfast with the president, the Speaker said there are “a couple outstanding issues” to iron out in the health care arena, but the environmental aspects of the bill “are resolved” and she’s “optimistic” that a deal is close.

“We’re in good shape. We’re moving along,” Pelosi said.


The intention to bring this country down by means of an economic collapse has been their goal for decades. Activists have been taught to bring this about through the Cloward and Piven strategy. Once they collapse this country, they will blame it on Capitalism. They will then render the Constitution null and void. Once that is achieved they will submit this country to communism and a one world order. As well as a one world religion, and a one world cashless economy system. But in order to buy or sell one will have to worship the beast (antichrist) and receive his mark in the right hand or forehead, see Revelation chapter 13. This is plan A.

There is of course a better alternative, plan B. and is found in.....

1’st Thessalonians 4:
13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.

14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.

16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

In order to be approved for plan B, you must be Born Again by faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ at Calvary 2,000 years ago...

Romans 10:
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Good article; The only thing I would add is that the Left/Swamp opposed anything Trump did. Even if it meant inflicting misery on innocent people.

It’s not hard when all you do is knee-jerk rescind all of the prior successful administrations’ policies.
