Here’s why Democrats work so hard to defend criminals
American Thinker ^ | 27 Aug, 2025 | Howard J. Warner

Posted on 08/28/2025 4:32:06 AM PDT by MtnClimber

A few days ago, Vice President J.D. Vance in an interview was asked why the Democrats are getting behind criminals and blocking prosecutions and police protection. He responded (to be kind) that the politicians have lost touch with their constituents. But although this might be true of some, he did not get to the real reason.

When Barack Obama was elected president, he indicated that he wanted to fundamentally change America. To that end, he fundamentally changed our health care system, in which many now acknowledge a lack of personal care

..........SNIP.......

Obama is an intelligent person who morphed Saul Alinsky, Marx, Critical Theory, and anarchy into a legitimate political movement. Although it was successful in his personal ascension to power, this approach has not generally gained ground nationally. (It is well received in the large urban cities with large minority populations.) The movement toward radicalism includes a reduction in policing and punishment for crimes. This results in chaos which threatens the local poor and minority population most giving them a sense of hopelessness and desperation. This is critical to the theory. Hence, these political leaders will resist any attempt to make our streets safer.

Democrats defend crime and defunding the police because this keeps them in power. If people are threatened, they are more willing to distrust those who fall into the “oppressor” groups. The impetus to change paradigms does not come easily when “free” stuff is offered to those with little resources. Hence socialist Mamdani is leading for NYC mayor in a city with a large immigrant population. Crime is the chaos that Critical Theory has ordered. Lowering the crime rate in Washington, D.C. by the Trump initiative is a threat to the Democratic leadership.

Crime creates crises

Crises are used by socialists to advance their agendas by the Hegelian Dialectic process, which requires balkanized groups and demonizing/hating one of them

Sometimes its small leaps in their agenda (incrementalism) and sometimes if its really bad they get larger leaps

They do so because they are criminals.

No offense, but that's the easy answer and is hardly accurate.

There are plenty of dems who are not criminals (though they support them when they are implicated in criminality).

I hate to parrot my mantra yet again, but this is just more evidence of the 'true pandemic':

dems are merely utterly stupid, yet those who built & managed zero are not. i.e., 'useful idiots'.

It's a simple equation that even the author doesn't fully grasp, but he's not wrong about crime.

Regrettably, my father is beholden to the core of the true pandemic as well...

Good article from the fearless patriot Miranda Devine. From the Weather Underground to Antifa, leftists have always used goons to create civil unrest.
Keith Ellison AKA Keith X Ellison AKA Keith Ellison-Muhammed, former Nation of Islam toady, is an great example of how radicals infiltrated main stream politics.

Just about everybody has forgotten the Marxist term:

Revolution of the proletariat.

It’s a useful paradigm with which the rich and powerful can break down their middle class competition and keep the poor ineffectual and dependent.

If your nation doesn’t have a restive proletariat, then make one.

"I grew up in the 70s and 80s. I really never felt much fear. What was there to be afraid of? Sure, some bad things happened somewhere else but that wasn’t common and it didn’t make sense to dwell on it. Life was good."

Like me, you grew up in The Matrix. Of course things seemed pleasant by comparison, it was all based on lies. These days we're frustrated because we can just see a hint of the the truth through an increasingly dissipating curtain of lies.

Is he clueless in all areas of his life?

Nope. Fairly sharp otherwise and active physically. Works outside a lot taking care of his home and rental property. But he's a blockhead when it comes to politics.

“...Obama is an intelligent person who morphed Saul Alinsky, Marx, Critical Theory, and anarchy into a legitimate political movement...”

Not really. No intelligent person would do that! “O’Bozo” never razzle dazzled me, I never thought he was ‘intelligent’. Smart mouth isn't ‘smart’.

I grew up in a neighborhood where smart-mouth guys like that got their a%#es kicked on a daily basis.

It's how I know O'Bozo is a wuss who had a very sheltered childhood. He wouldn't have survived 5 minutes in the hood!

They do so because they (themselves) are criminals.

Anyone who still supports the Democrats has a criminal and evil heart, mind and soul.

Exactly.

Correct. Obama is an attractive, articulate grifter. He inflicted as much harm as he could on America. Not to mention he’s not American.

Saul Alinsky

Interesting ... Saul Alinsky has two high profile disciples in Obama & Hillary. Hillary even interviewed him for a term paper while attending Wellesley. Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals is followed closely & adhered to by the democ'Rat political class.

“Lol! Sorry,Barack Osama is a moron, the opposite of intelligent”

But...

“Evil intelligence is often called an “evil genius” or described with terms like “Machiavellian” or “diabolical”. Words such as “cunning”, “manipulative”, “nefarious”, and “despotic” also characterize individuals who combine high intellect with malevolent intent or actions.
Here are some specific terms:
Evil Genius:
A common term in culture and philosophy for someone whose brilliance is combined with evil intent.
Machiavellian:
Describes a person who is strategic and intelligent, but also cynical and manipulative in their pursuit of self-interest.
Diabolical:
A term that can refer to both the fiendish nature of the evil person and their wicked deeds.
Cunning:
Implies shrewdness and a skill for deception, often for selfish or malicious ends.
Manipulative:
Refers to a person who uses their intelligence to control or influence others for their own benefit.
Nefarious:
A synonym for evil, wicked, or villainous, which can apply to intelligence used for depraved purposes.” [Via AI]

"Here’s why Democrats work so hard to defend criminals"

Because Demonicrats are lying, perverted, murdering traitors to the United States of America.
