The United States is in A Dark Place
American Thinker ^ | 3 Jan, 2024 | E. Jeffrey Ludwig

We are in a dark place as a country. This is a direct result of the extreme shift to the Left by the Democrat Party. Prior to 2020, President Barack Obama was our most far-Left President. But even Obama was still on the cusp between being an extreme liberal and being a communist. In a recent book, John Drew wrote about his occasional meetings with Obama in the early 1980s and that Drew -- a leftist at that time -- had persuaded Obama to accept a more moderate position than that of the hardcore Marxists. In another article in the same book, Trevor Loudoun reveals that Obamacare was a dilution of the healthcare plans desired by the Marxists in that it did not replace all private healthcare with a national, government-run healthcare system. However, in July 2020, the camp pushing Joe Biden towards the Presidency and the camp promoting the communist Bernie Sanders’ candidacy reached a landmark agreement -- a 110-page pact regarding goals for the government. In so doing, Joe Biden broke the policy of the Democrats going back to 1948 of not embracing the far-Left, communist element of the Democrat Party.

The language of the Biden-Sanders pact is dry and opaque, and most citizens would not have the patience to plow through it. Convoluted and turgid prose is, to this writer, a clear sign of an attempt to obscure the purposes and direction that the writers intend to take. In this case, it is clear that the intent of the Democrats is to implement communistic revisionism into government policies, to overthrow the values that inhere and undergird our legal system, to overthrow the principle of private property either through nationalization or through infiltration of and control of the private sector.

Depends on how many have woke up to the mass infiltration issue this may be the last test if they haven’t.

Darkest I’ve ever seen in 83 years. Country in a flat spin for you aviation buffs.

Can we vote our way out?

Your question assumes our elections are honest. If they were, I'd say yes. Since they aren't, I'll stack with, Not a Chance in Hell.

They made this pact so that Sanders would drop out of the race. The Bernie Bros were very upset, but then they went along with it.

As I said during the campaign, there won’t be a dime’s worth of difference between a Biden Presidency and a Bernie Presidency.

Yes, this is happening and has been happening for a number of years. There's almost enough compromised people in positions of authority for them to pull it off - but not enough. And so many heroes on our side in high places are on to them that they'll fail.
