It can't happen here? It is happening here! By Patricia McCarthy
Sinclair Lewis's novel of 1935, It Can't Happen Here, was published amid the rise of fascism in Europe. The book is about the political career of fictional Buzz Windrip, who is elected president in 1936, defeating FDR with a campaign promising a return to traditional values and drastic social and economic reforms (he promises every American $5K). Once elected, he becomes a totalitarian tyrant, complete with his own paramilitary force called the Minute Men!
Windrip is Lewis's version of an American Hitler and/or Mussolini. But consider the parallels with the current occupant of the Oval Office. Windrip outlaws dissent (consider the Biden administration's partnership with Big Tech to censor opposing opinions). He, Windrip, imprisons his critics just as Biden has jailed anyone present at the Capitol on January 6. Biden has his own Minute Men, the FBI, as well as a couple of other paramilitary groups in service of his agenda — Antifa and BLM. They are his shock troops, who, like Windrip's thugs, terrorize his opponents, freedom-loving, independent thinking Americans.
Like Biden, Buzz Windrip abrogated the rights of civilians and divided the nation into "administrative sectors" to be managed by federal "Corpo" authorities and enforced by his Minute Men. Pelosi is now installing branches of the Capitol Police throughout the country to seek out perceived threats to members of Congress. The similarities to Lewis's two-dimensional dictator and the Biden regime are chilling.

No it’s the FBI that is the new minute men under control of AG Garland. This is getting very dangerous when Congressional homes are raided. We are very close to full tyranny by unknown leaders pulling the strings.

Everybody should see it.
I read the book long ago and forgot the details. Incredible analysis. The similarities are stunning.
It is why we must reject the entire Leftist facade of CRT, open borders, wokeness, climate, covid, AND . . .
