Headline is way over the top, but he makes very pertinent points.
GENIUS.
VDH in better days, with his daughter Susannah above Pepperdine University, in Malibu. Sadly, she passed away from Leukemia.
“What caused this lunacy?”
Weak GOP politicians who didn’t fight to turn back the tide.
The elimination of the two party system, particularly the law making the general election between the top two vote getters in the primaries. Many key general election races, including the US Senate race in 2018 (Di Fi won) are now between two Democrats.
To this list can be added Rte. 395, which runs from Cajon Pass to the Nevada line below Carson City and on to Canada. Despite being a major north-south artery, Rte. 395 consists of only two lanes through much of its course. Many areas, including the notorious 40-mile from Cajon Pass through Adelanto to Kramer's Corners feature stop lights and traffic jams. Rte. 395 should have been made a freeway decades ago.
the tax payers of america always have the bill..stupid
When the citizenship goes through on the census - and it will - and California loses billions in federal funding as a result,
and when - not if - a significant chunk of the cash cows in California see how much more theyre paying now that SALT deduction LSU have been limited and leave the state as a result, it will be interesting to see what the Lefties do then. The money is going to run out.
One of Victor Davis Hanson’s best articles and totally on target.
Our highways, bridges and infrastructure has been devastated like we did to Germany and Viet Nam in our wars.
Except the only war has been on the middle class voters and tax payers.
A hidden war for over decades has been destroying and liberalizing the once excellent state colleges and universities. They have abandoned excellent education to become SJW grooming centers, which destroy any science and math that has survived some how.
The hidden aim of this terrible action was to destroy the middle class children and making them unproductive SJW’s with staggering student loan debt for worthless degrees.
Now that debt is crushing a high % of the parents when they should be saving as much as possible for their upcoming retirement.
San Francisco has the highest property-crime rate per capita of any major city. The California prison system is a mess, and sanctuary cities ensure that illegal aliens charged with crimes will not be deported.
Pick up a McClatchy paper and youll see that the days fare of Central Valley criminality, even after sanitization and editorialization, is mind-boggling.
This IS the future if democrats take over... we'll all be California, Detroit, Chicago or any of many other 'progressive' hellholes emerriging in the United States..
Were still stuck with a corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Congress that is not only stubbornly refusing to enforce the constitutionally enumerated guarantee of a republican form of government for each state, but is also not doing its duty to make punitive laws to discourage state actors from abridging constitutionally enumerated protections, especially freedom of religious expression and free speech.
"Article IV, Section 4: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government [emphasis added], and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence."
From the 14th Amendment:
"Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
"Section 5: The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article."
All patriots in the nation need to come to the rescue of state-oppressed patriots by electing a new patriot Congress in the 2020 elections that will not only promise to support PDJTs vision for MAGA, but will also promise to support PDJT in cleaning up renegade state governments.
And to make the cleanup permanent, patriots also need to support PDJT in leading the states to repeal the 16th and ill-conceived 17th Amendments.
Remember in November 2020!
MAGA!
California once was governed by Reagan,had a very stable and strong conservative base and rivaled most countries of the world and now it’s a sh*thole. It takes very little time to transform.
I always found it strange growing up in Northern Cali ( Far above Sac) It was always like viewing another planet to the south. As the Liberal mentality crept further north and along with the insane views it became clear as day it was another plant... left in 1999 and boy I am very happy I did.
I was outraged in 1986 when Ronald Reagan made the deal with the Devil Democrats on Amnesty.
I was outraged on behalf of legal immigrants, and because I knew he had doomed his adopted state.
