Dennis Prager nails it on the head.

An excellent analysis by Dennis Prager.

The left, Democrats, and the Establishment Media are fighting to maintain control over the United States.

Power is taken, not given, and the Establishment Media is not relinquishing power without a struggle.

What they do not realize is that their oligopoly's ability to control the flow of information has been broken.

It was/is the major source of their power, and that has been revealed to most Americans.

As it is revealed, they lose even more influence and power.

These tactics by the left are backfiring and reducing their influence.

#CALEXIT would fix a lot of problems.

“electing conservative Republicans and not donating money to colleges will be more effective”

not really.
a cracked windpipe would.

All true, they no longer control the narrative, but they control the narrative to their half of the population.

Like two tectonic plates grinding past each other and building up stress, the pressure will be released in a CW.

I quote from the Left’s great “God” (Mao):

“Political power flows from the barrel of a gun.”

And that’s when mayors and college presidents will finally order in the police.

Wouldn’t want to be those guys at that point...

Look to the lead-in to the Spanish Civil War, it’s a carbon copy of what’s going on in the US.

Interesting that most of the same players are stirring up the fecal matter, such as the socialists, Communists and the Anarchists, where 20 years ago they were either non-existent or a fringe group.

> If college presidents, mayors and police chiefs won’t stop left-wing mobs, other Americans will. <

I don’t think so. A mob runs through the streets of Portland. A mob runs through the Berkeley campus. Most conservatives get rightly upset about that. But - bottom line - most conservatives won’t get involved; they have no dog in that fight.

Now, if a mob appears in middle America, conservatives WILL get involved. But mobs don’t appear in middle America in the first place.

I’d donate money to make California exit... and I’d donate EXTRA money if all the California who moved out the past few years to infest other states, had to move back during the exit.

And that is when mayors and college presidents discover the effective range of .308, .338 and .50. Or that 50 cops can’t protect them from a heavily armed militia of 5,000.
