The second civil war is being waged, but Republicans are pretending not to notice

It appears one party now hates us and wishes us harm … and the other really isn’t willing to do much about that.

Democrat Rep. Robert Garcia chairs the House Oversight Committee. He is also an illegal alien from Peru, amnestied in 1986. And he’s gay.

An angry man, he wants to go after conservatives; is desirous, in fact, of holding even those no longer in office “accountable.”

For what specifically, I have yet to hear him say. (Republicans won’t even hold the worst criminals in office accountable. Not only couldn’t they keep illegal aliens from voting, they, apparently, but also couldn’t even oust this one from serving in Congress. Good luck with Ilhan Omar, invertebrates.)

Garcia has stated that he may want to go after Trump and his supporters because he’s gay. And petty. Have a listen.

Bobby G. said of his political opponents, “I’m interested in accountability for all of your crimes and grift. We’re not gonna, we’re not gonna forget like you know, like, we can’t forget about these folks that are causing harm, like, you know I think it’s like, I mean maybe it’s ‘cuz, maybe it’s ‘cuz I’m gay, but like, you know, like, like pettiness is a thing.”

Like, yes it is. And, like, vindictiveness, gaslighting, projection, and, like, like, evil are also things. (And “harm,” in this context, means “anything we don’t care for.”)

But wanting to prosecute Trump because “I’m gay” is not only immoral, but nonsensical. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is the highest-ranking openly gay official in U.S. history … and almost universally admired by conservatives for his job performance. Ric Grenell was Director of National Intelligence in Trump’s first term and has filled various roles for the president over time. Tammy Bruce once served as State Department spokesperson

100% absolutely up to our necks in a coordinated color, revolution, being run by people who have been forced out of organizations like USAID and the military.

Suddenly, Democrats are tough on crime. Well, except rape and murder and such.

I’ve posted this before but I think it’s worth repeating:

In the Kurt Vonnegut novel “The Sirens of Titan”, the Martians, descendants of human colonists, board their space craft for the invasive of Earth.
The craft only has two controls, an “on” and an “off” button.

The “on” button activates the automated controls that fly the craft to a predetermined invasion point.

The “off” button does nothing. It is just there to give the occupants a false sense of security with the illusion that they have some control of the process.

This is a perfect metaphor for the Democrat and Republican parties.

It’s unfortunate that our political system is so deeply entrenched with a fundamentally “two party” system leaving us no viable alternative politically.

This gay, illegal-alien, America-hating neo-marxist was elected by the good people of California’s 42nd District in Long Beach California.

I have serious doubts about the validity of California’s elections - but nonetheless, we can say this guy was the choice of at least a significant minority of American citizens in that part of California.

We’re a two party system because structurally we are designed to be. It’s a political argument between centralization VS decentralization of political power. It’s been that way since the Articles of Confederation. Establishing the right mix of the two is the crux of the matter. Centralization has been ascending since roughly 1900. 16th Amendment & 17th Amendment being two examples. The worst of those two is the 17th Amendment it reduced the states to being almost administrative provinces. It made the Senate which the Founding Fathers intended to the voice of the states as institutions into just another version of the partisan House but with 6 year terms. The House was supposed to be partisan hence the two year terms.

It’s amazing you think a parliamentary system is preferable! Take a hard look at the UK and Canada’s governing performance and get back to me.

The new generation of Democrats are Antifa style activists who are looking forward to the violent overthrow of the US government like they did in the BLM Summer of Love .

They are holding back on going full out on street violence because they are making stellar progress simply taking over our political system and implementing their radical authoritarian Marxist agenda from within the government itself.

If you look at the debanking and FBI criminalizing of dissent operations under Biden you can infer their agendas

They are allied with both radical Islamic terrorists (including Iran) and also with the international socio anarchist communist revolutionary movement and with the Chinese CCP.

They imported 20+ million illegal aliens, many of whom were selected due their affiliations with Islamic terror , South and Central American Marxist revolutionary groups like FMLN and with violent cartels and transnational criminal groups.

Recent Democrat politicians openly support the Muslim Brotherhood, Antifa, the CCP and criminal cartels. They are openly advocating violence against Jews(who are their political allies but bitter rivals in the Democrat power structure), conservatives, business leaders, government officials and even Supreme Court Justices. They brag about organizing implementing the 3.5% strategy (if 3.5% of the population takes to the street in violent protest they can overthrow a government) for a terroristic street violent color revolution.

We see what this looks like in the Antifa/BLM Summer of Love riots and the recent insanity ICE protests in Minnesota and the rest of the country - complete with the successful and attempted assassinations of LEOs, politcal opposition members and despised class enemies.

Their goal is to intimidate opposition with violence, debanking, Chines Social Credit style oppression, and assassination.

I find it quaint and naive of Americans that these political revolutionaries and criminals would not resort to vote fraud

Rule #1: expect a democrat to do the opposite of everything they say.

Ruke #2: democrats are doing the exact thing they accuse republicans of or are.

Great post.

Vonnegut’s dark humor is perfect for our times.

Many of the debates around here are in the binary format (either this or that, no other alternative).

That kind of thinking is a classic logical fallacy.

There are always many alternatives to anything and everything—including ones we are not smart enough to find.

It is a wonderful experience when you identify a realistic alternative that others (and the historical you!) have never considered possible.

“Republicans are pretending not to notice”

They’re not pretending. They’re in on it.
