“Reagan’s Assistant Secretary of the Treasury is a Russian butt boy? You’ve been Borged.”

You’re not the first person on this thread to make such a statement. It used to be on FreeRepublic if anyone made such assertions they would provide “Chapter and Verse” documentation backing up such statements. This was back when FreeRepublic was dominated by people of knowledge and could provide a great deal of evidence to back up such statements when they made them. Where is your well-documented evidence to back up your assertion?

We’ve got an uphill struggle ahead of us. But, in the mean time, if all of us (or even a majority of us) refuse to play along. The coup plotters have a serious problem. They simply don’t have the resources to deal with the dissent! That is ALL we have to do! Dissent in EVERY way!

I’d say it’s a similar tune. Some historians say that “history does NOT repeat itself, But it certainly rhymes!”

Post-Modernism. It is “insanity” packaged as an excuse for the (predictable) failure of “communism”.

Wow - people sure are gloomy!!!

I remain positive, because our ideas are strong, and remain correct. In addition, many immigrants, including illegals likely to be given citizenship shortly are strong supporters of families, hard work, entrepreneurship, religious values, and they shun the oppressive tyrannies they fled.

Instead of sitting around moping we should be building winning coalitions off of what our POTUS Trump started.

Brighter days are ahead.

Don't be a quitter; keep active and keep talking.

Use plenty of HUMOR to get points across, a la TheDonald.Win, and People's Cube. There is nothing more attractive to growing your movement than funny positive messaging - and nothing more deadly to the Left (they HATE it).

Continue to educate and persuade your children & grandkids; you personally have considerable power to undo the goofy things they might hear from poorly trained staff at public schools. Purchase classic reading materials, and spend time learning with them, it's a worthy investment in our future.

This was a brilliant essay until I got to this sentence...

"The Biden regime seems to be filling up with neoconservative Zionists who are agents of Washington and Israel's hegemony."

What!

I cannot name one neocon or Zionist who has joined the Biden Administration at the senior executive level.

In fact, the Democratic Party is the largest and best funded anti-Semitic/anti-Israel political organization in the world.

“Today not only is the economy done for, but so is the belief system that sustained social and political stability.”

A country is much more than a geographical area. It’s essence is a shared dominant culture. That no longer exists here. The failure on our (the right) part to resist the idiocy called multiculturalism pretty much made where we are unavoidable.

As a famous person once said, you only own that which you are willing and able to defend - that applies to culture as well. We’ve had the ability but lacked the will.

Yuri Besmenov laid all of this out. They identify and then attack every pillar that the society rests upon. Does ANYONE REALLY think that gretchin whitmer REALLY cares about their lives! This witch is for killing babies for crying out loud. But, she’ll shut down Church’s and leave strip clubs open. MORALITY is just one pillar. I’d say they’ve done enough damage. A man who won the decathlon decides in his sixties that he wants to be a woman. That is insanity borne of immorality. Of Course, me saying so now!... Well that’s just pure EVIL to these SCUM!

BINGO.

A list of a few actual NAMES might serve the point better than the vague assertion.

Also, red flags go up anytime a pundit starts slinging the term “Zionist” around; I’ve less than ZERO tolerance for anti-Semites.

“ It used to be on FreeRepublic if anyone made such assertions they would provide “Chapter and Verse” documentation backing up such statements.”

It used to be that obvious nutballs and leftists trolls would be tossed off. Now daily threads praising an anonymous internet con artist Q are tolerated.

And it’s damned sad.

Agreed. If a Freeper is going to attack a post they need to do so with documentation that can be discussed and debated. To simply state so and so is a POS and then bail is not acceptable. In the early days of FreeRepublic that would never have been tolerated. It used to be an accepted norm that you would provide documented evidence to back up your position and then engage in the constructive debate of the merits.

[eight years of Trump]

I had hoped for that.

Days ago there were a few people assuring it was still going to happen.

Not without a whole lot of Divine intervention, IMHO.

[”The Biden regime seems to be filling up with neoconservative Zionists who are agents of Washington and Israel’s hegemony.”]

Agreed. That’s absurd. If anything, Biden will re-energize the JCPOA; which will only buy more time for Iran’s mullahs.

Craig Roberts like Reagan’s Budget Director David Stockman are broken clocks. They have been predicting the collapse of the US since the 80’s. And like all broken clocks, one day they may be have the correct time, but I just ignore them. Like those stock market touts who predict a market crash every month for years and years and then when one does occur, they claim to have “predicted” it.

Well said. Biden did not get real votes, no more than the fed prints real money. Truth is.. there are more of us than them. They might find safety in the blue states, but only because we allow it.
I think our finest days are ahead. Finally, standing up at the risk of losing it all. Because our families matter and so does everyone elses.
They cant stay in the shelter of the militarized zone of dc forever. If a bakers business can be doxxed, why not someone who has sworn to represent us directly.
We sat by for 8 years of obama, will we repeat?

“How long will Trump deplorables remain docile when they realize that they are being exterminated by being cut off from equal rights, constitutional protection, employment and avenues of success?”

Therein is the money question.
