The One-Party State

David Horowitz has been warning for decades that the American left stands in opposition to America, in both its lack of appreciation of the principles of the American founding expressed in both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, and of the country’s history and achievements and economic system which have enabled the nation to grow and prosper. America’s history is hardly blemish free, of course, with a long and troubling record with among others, Native Americans and Blacks who were brought to the country as slaves, and who faced mistreatment and discrimination after the Civil War for a century or more. But America’s record is also one of addressing and often overcoming these challenges to its founding principles, including the enormous sacrifice of hundreds of thousands of lives in our Civil War, which resulted in the end of slavery, and the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s, led by Dr. Martin Luther King, which saw new laws passed to finally finish off the Jim Crow system, eliminate imposed segregation, end discrimination in public accommodations, and create real voting rights for blacks and all citizens.

Horowitz’s latest book is clear on how the left views this history as an un-ending struggle by oppressed people of color against racism and white supremacy, which it argues has been the core value of our country since 1619. The left argues that this requires an unraveling or destruction of all the systems of economic control and racism which exist and continue to damage marginalized groups.

Horowitz’s latest book is a stark warning on how close we now are to the left accomplishing its long-term goal of dominating American politics in perpetuity.

It’s been a one party rule since the 17th Amendment was passed...

The Republican Party has taken on the roll of designated loser and keeping conservatives at bay.. lie to them, get elected then enable the uniparty and enrich yourself along the way... Judd Greg and Kelly Ayotte are perfect examples

Trump upset the uniparty... hence the election fraud and very little response from state and federal officials... can’t have those pesky tax payers getting off the plantation..

Sadly I see the ultimate end of all this is a revolution as bloody as the French Revolution.

The question is - which side is going to step up first to eliminate the other?

Good article, but comments like these are unnecessary and irritating:

America’s history is hardly blemish free, of course, with a long and troubling record with among others, Native Americans and Blacks who were brought to the country as slaves, and who faced mistreatment and discrimination after the Civil War for a century or more.

So another qualifier in a column defending America. It's much the same with many Trump supporters.
