Soviet NY: Letitia James’ Lawfare Has Killed a Conservative Website
The New American ^ | Aug. 3, 2024 | Selwyn Duke

“The Land the Law Forgot,” is what liberal legal scholar Jonathan Turley called New York in June. Oh, it’s not that it doesn’t have laws; it’s got so many, in fact, that studies found it to be our country’s least free state. It’s that N.Y.’s supposed law enforcers are ideological enforcers, using and going beyond the Empire State’s surfeit of strictures to build an empire of left-wing conformity.

Letitia James’ Vendetta And now Letitia James, the notorious N.Y. attorney general who tag-teamed with a judge to try to pummel former President Donald Trump, has claimed another scalp: nonprofit anti-(destructive)immigration entity VDARE, which, after three years of lawfare attacks, is going to be suspending operations. The kicker:

James has not charged VDARE with anything, says site founder Peter Brimelow.

So this goes beyond even Stalin secret police chief Lavrentiy Beria’s vow, “Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime.”

It’s “Show me the man and I’ll show you the process-is-punishment lawfare method.”

Multifaceted Attacks Yet VDARE’s story is even more troubling than the above suggests. Also a victim of what Brimelow calls a “de facto ‘Social Credit’ system,” the organization has been subject to financial-arena and business-realm “cancellation” that has made survival difficult even aside from the lawfare attacks. (It’s part of a wider effort to “defund” patriotic, virtue-oriented voices.)

More bizarrely still, VDARE has been targeted with what Brimelow describes as cyberattacks so “extraordinary” that they’ve “baffled” the site’s techies. How’s that for “weird,” to use the term the mainstream media are now tarring Republicans with, all while ignoring the profoundly weird and newsworthy VDARE story?

James is what happens when dumbthugs are given power they don’t deserve.

But NY is now too far gone to “reform”.

They need to be expelled from the Union.

It seems VDARE’s sole mistake was registering themselves in New York 25 years ago.

They thought that they could work within the beast, to change the beast.

The tenacity of our tyrannical communist rulers in imposing more & more tyranny is unmatched by those seeking (supposedly) to protect our Constitutional freedoms & liberties...

Just as the Russian people in the 1920s & 1930s, and the German people in the 1930s, the American people meekly and silently slip deeper and deeper into abject terror & tyranny without a significant whimper of protest...

They can’t put it in the title? Whatever. Not reading it.

You can try this. On a related note...

Tim Walz says you have NO RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH if the government deems it “misinformation.”

#TamponTim says the quiet part out loud.

The Russian courts have nothing on the Washington DC Federal Courts or the State Courts of NY.
