Susan Rice's Terrifying Vow If Democrats Take Back Power
Townhall ^ | 20 Feb, 2026 | Amy Curtis

Posted on 02/22/2026 5:42:11 AM PST by MtnClimber

Several prominent Democrats have been open and vocal about their plans to punish members of the Trump administration, including civilian ICE agents, if they regain power. Eric Swalwell has vowed to make ICE agents' lives a living hell if he's elected governor of California, Rep. Shri Thanedar said Dems will prosecute ICE and Border Patrol agents, as has Philly DA Larry Krasner, and Mehdi Hasan wants the next Democratic president to run on a platform of prosecuting conservatives.

Now Suan Rice, the former Obama National Security Advisor and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, as promised that Democrats will punish those who "bent the knee" to President Trump.

"When it comes to the elites, the corporate interests, the law firms, the universities, the media...it is not going to end well for them, for those that decided...that they would act in their perceived very narrow self interest," Rice said, "which I would underscore is a very short-term self-interest and take a knee to Trump."

"I think they're not starting to realize...this is not popular. Trump is not popular. What he is doing, whether on the economy and affordability, or immigration now, is not popular, and that there is likely to be a swing in the other direction, and they are going to be caught with more than their pants down. They're going to be held accountable by those who come in opposition to Trump and win at the ballot box," Rice said.

Simply incredible. The Democrats have spent a decade telling us that President Trump is an authoritarian, a fascist, Hitler, who is weaponizing government and then they run on a platform of punishing the people who didn't resist Trump to their liking.

The Clinton-Obama contingent of are quite ready to aggressively push Lenin-like struggle sessions and massive bureaucratic and lawfare actions. This is all about power, and nothing more.

We want to win their hearts and minds. They want us in mass graves. Their hate is stronger than our patriotism.

Leftists hate people. Some would say that’s because they hate themselves, as their God-given conscience gnaws at them. Non-leftists hate, if anything, ideas; it’s not personal (generally...). I saw a bunch of hospital workers out protesting against ICE last week. Idiots, I thought. And then I thought about how they might treat me, were I a patient and my politics known to them. I realized that they would probably seek to do me some degree of harm, likely in a passive-agressive fashion, given the opportunity. By way of contrast, I don’t believe conservative//traditional (normal) people think like that.

A criminal party. Unfortunately they are enabled by weak Republicans.

All over the globe, leftist regimes are destroying democracy, Free Speech, jailing opposition, and seeking the end of capitalism, liberty, energy, food sources.

It is critical that the DOJ be purged of these communists. It won’t prevent it but it will slow it down. 75-80 percent need to go.

News Release
02.12.2018

‘Unusual Email’ Susan Rice Sent to Herself on Pres Trump’s Inauguration Day

Rice appears to have used this email trick——seemingly acting to “document” a fictitious January 5, 2017 Oval Office meeting between President Obama, FBI Director James Comey and Deputy AG Sally Yates......... regarding “Russian interference in the 2016 Presidential election.”

The duplicitous Rice....inventing a CYA meeting.....wrote:

“President Obama began the conversation by stressing his continued commitment to ensuring that every aspect of this issue is handled by the Intelligence and law enforcement communities ‘by the book’. The President stressed that he is not asking about, initiating or instructing anything from a law enforcement perspective. He reiterated that our law enforcement team needs to proceed as it normally would by the book.”


Chairmen Grassley and Graham were struck by the context and timing of this email, and sent a follow up letter to Ambassador Rice. The letter reads in part:

“It strikes us as odd that, among your activities in the final moments on the final day of the Obama administration, you would feel the need to send yourself such an unusual email purporting to document a conversation involving President Obama and his interactions with the FBI regarding the Trump/Russia investigation.

In addition, despite your claim that President Obama repeatedly told Mr. Comey to proceed ‘by the book,’ substantial questions have arisen about whether officials at the FBI, as well as at the Justice Department and the State Department, actually did proceed ‘by the book.’”

Grassley asked Ambassador Rice to answer a set of questions by February 22, 2018 so the committee could further assess the situation.


The full text of the letter to Rice is at the Grassley web site.

I get the feeling Ms. Rice gets aroused when looking at pictures of Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot. She wants to be a Komissar, not a President.

Voters asked in large numbers for President Trump and he has executed his policies lawfully. That’s what she hates most - out of power and her policies rejected.

Republicans - and the American people - should take these threats absolutely seriously.

This is exactly what Democrats will do if they (God Forbid) return to power in 2028.

Look, alot of this rhetoric shouldn’t surprise anyone.

Recall what they did to the J6 people, look ‘who’ they put on their domestic terror group lists last time, look what they did to PTA parents who challenged schools...

This rhetoric isn’t new. The real issue is...and something the republican right hasn’t figured out how to do on a consistent basis is ...at least ask if it is even legal language and protected speech? Or is it threats?

They will start on day one. In the meantime, no one has been arrested for obvious crimes with evidence. The Comey debacle was a disgrace that never would have happened if it were dems.

Susan Rice’s tenure with President Obama was most exemplified by her stupidity and know-nothingness, and fomenting intense global scrutiny over her ignorant characterization of the 2012 Benghazi attack.

Benghazi Controversy detailed: Following the 2012 Benghazi, Libya, attacks, Rice was lacerated and condemned. She was Obama’s pick for SOS, and later withdrew from consideration for Secretary of State due to social upheaval she created regarding her public characterization of the incident.


Key aspects of her tenure included Obama’s appointing her UN Ambassador (2009–2013). She dive tight in as a liberal echo, championing the liberal smorgasbord of “human rights,” LGBT rights, and climate change as global priorities, while pushing for tough sanctions against Iran and North Korea. She was a key proponent of the U.S. and NATO-led military intervention in Libya.

National Security Advisor (2013–2017): As Obama’s token black female, she transitioned to managing Obama’s National Security Council, overseeing foreign policy from the White House.......sap-happy half-white Obama giving the unqualified black Rice yet another resume boost.
