Preview into Dystopia: Democrats and the Congo
American Thinker ^ | 15 Sep, 2024 | Ricochet Café

It is incredibly ironic that the Biden/Harris administration and its State Department were tasked with overseeing the election integrity of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) recently. The same Biden/Harris administration that was strong-arming Mark Zuckerberg to publish only Biden-affirming material on Facebook, which allowed election laws to be illegally changed in the wake of COVID, and which oversaw the shutting down of vote counts in the middle of the night in swing states is now being asked to validate and defend free elections in the DRC.

This is the same Democrat party that thinks voter ID is racist. Of course, the Democrats and the ruling powers of the DRC have a lot in common. For one thing, they think a “free and fair election” means their guy wins.

And they love a dystopia!

That’s why Biden oversaw their elections. You remember Joe Biden, don’t you? He’s the guy who got 81M votes but won only 17% of U.S. counties (the lowest county wins in history). Trump won 2,547 counties, and Biden walked away with 81M votes from a mere 509.

In January 2024, Felix Tshisekedi was sworn in as the new president of the DRC. Nineteen candidates ran for the executive office. According to the election commission, Tshisekedi got 70% of the vote, but the results were questioned almost at once. Voter turnout was low at 40%, many polling stations were closed on Election Day, and two thirds of all polling places that did open on Election Day did not operate normal hours. The Biden administration affirmed that Tshisekedi was the clear winner in a pristine election. They dismissed all accusations of fraud as baseless allegations.

This is Tshisekedi’s second term. He won his first term under circumstances so sketchy that even the Catholic Church challenged the election results.

Can the USA run more corrupt elections than the Democratic Republic of Congo?

That’s like asking a starving group of people to guard a banquet table.

I’m sure they’ll give it the old college try.

It’s just how Democrats would like to run the United States: sell it off, piece by piece, to China, and let China pay starvation wages to workers while bribing those in power. They’re doing it right now in the United States with American farmland. If we had all that cobalt, Biden would have sold it to China, too.

Weren’t 3 Americans just given the death sentence for helping engage a coup in the Congo? And they are getting very little help fron the State Department?

Back story in this Associate Press article. How 3 young Americans got involved in a coup attempt

If any of this story is believable, then it is a story of stupidity. Does stupidity deserve the death penalty? Let's just say that sometimes it is the result.
