Recently, Democrats have been despondent over President Joe Biden's sinking poll numbers. His policies on the economy, energy, foreign policy, the border, and COVID-19 all have lost majority support.
As a result, the Left now variously alleges that either in 2022, when they expect to lose the Congress, or in 2024, when they fear losing the presidency, Republicans will "destroy democracy" or stage a coup.
A cynic might suggest that they praise democracy when they get elected, only to claim it is broken when they lose. Or they hope to avoid their defeat by trying to terrify the electorate. Or they mask their own revolutionary propensities by projecting them onto their opponents.
After all, who is trying to federalize election laws in national elections contrary to the spirit of the Constitution? Who wishes to repeal or circumvent the Electoral College? Who wishes to destroy the more than 180-year-old Senate filibuster, the over 150-year-old nine-justice Supreme Court, and the more than 60-year-old, 50-state union?
Who is attacking the founding constitutional idea of two senators per state?
The Constitution also clearly states that "When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside." Who slammed through the impeachment of former president Donald Trump without a presiding chief justice?
Never had a president been either impeached twice or tried in the Senate as a private citizen. Who did both?
The Left further broke prior precedent by impeaching Trump without a special counsel's report, formal hearings, witnesses, and cross-examinations.
Who exactly is violating federal civil rights legislation?
New York City's Department of Health and Mental Hygiene in December decided to ration potentially lifesaving new COVID-19 medicines, partially on the basis of race, in the name of "equity."

The insurrection was 11/4/20.
1/6/21 was the peaceful protest, unfortunately marred by an FBI/Pelousy run FF.
That’s the truth.
Hanson always does excellent work.
I think the full counter-argument that the Democrats would use to justify their actions is: “Trump is Hitler”. I’d like to see some supporting evidence for their claim, but I think they are too busy installing a fascist regime to provide details on the “Trump is Hitler” thing.
I love this guy. Next time one of your liberals friend chime in about erosion of democracy …. Guide them to this article. Filled with those nasty irrefutable facts.
What?
Impeachment does not require a Chief Justice. The Senate trial does.
Didn’t Roberts come out for those?
More than just insurrectionists, the Demonicrats are traitors to the United States of America.
Federal authorities won't say why armed Capitol rioters disappeared from FBI's most wanted list
Here is a sample of dem “sanity”. Dem do not mind calling for insurrection. Here is a sample. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgPVkcLBjK8 So it is OK for the dems to call for violence and OK for BLM and Antifa to DO violence but NOT OK for repubs to actually “peacefully” protest. Yeah, sounds fair to me.
Well stated.
The first one, yes. The second one, no. Leaky Leahy presided, instead.
Yes.
I have a hard time NOT calling citizens traitors who consistently hate on the U.S., in all eras (except the CW in which it was perfect), including today.
Notice how dems can never “disagree” with you. They totally destroy you.

I’ve had a few leftists I know approach me thinking that they’ve got a few points to score about J6... I stop them up short as fast as I can and say “Get back to me when you know who Ray Epps is and you also can tell me why he hasn’t been arrested yet.” That usually ends the discusion right there.
I could name about 545 of them…

FYI
“In the House’s version, Nancy honored several policemen, none of whom died on January 6:
Sicknick died of an unrelated stroke, Liebengood and Smith committed suicide, and a Farrakhan-loving Black Nationalist killed Billy Evans in April. Democrats also mentioned two other police officers—Gunther Hashida and Kyle DeFreytag, who both committed suicide in July. The suicides are tragic but there’s no reason to believe that the mêlée on January 6 alone triggered them...
