A decade of unprecedented fury at Trump saw his opponents undermine civil liberties, weaponize institutions, and set precedents that risk eroding the republic.
Over the decade of Donald Trump’s political career, the left—as exemplified by Democratic politicos, the media, academics, the Washington military hierarchy, and the permeant bureaucratic state—illustrated a level of furor, venom, and near madness unprecedented in modern American history.
Yet stranger still about such visceral, indeed lunatic hatred, despite Trump’s eccentricities and lack of a traditional political resume, his administration between 2017-21 was successful by traditional economic, military, security, and diplomatic standards. It was certainly not characterized by weaponizing the DOJ, Pentagon, CIA, or FBI, get-even vendettas, the use of lawfare, corruption, optional wars, open borders, hyperinflation, or a war on the environment—as predicted and alleged. Nevertheless, the idea of Trump as president justified to the left the greatest assault on our civil liberties, justice system, and free expression in modern history.
Indeed, at times the frenzy has ranged the gamut of an unprecedented two impeachments, a first Senate impeachment trial of a private citizen ex-president, and a coordinated effort to deplatform the major Republican presidential candidate from state ballots.
But at other times, the efforts were more sinister—and conspiratorial—to the point that the attempt to destroy the purported threat of candidate, president, and two-time candidate Trump apparently justified any means necessary.
In retrospect, what is the legacy of these unmatched efforts? They have established precedents, if ever again followed, will destroy the republic as we have known it.
1. “Russian collusion.” There was never any evidence that a 2016 Trump candidacy sought to “steal” the election through the intervention of the Putin Russian government. But a paranoid Clinton campaign, through the deliberate paywalls and agency of the DNC, Perkins Coie law firm, and Fusion GPS consulting

Just pretend it didn’t really happen.
Something like what? Not seeing it in your excerpt.

Message The vindictive Biden administration is wreaking havoc on America; plans and projects of regime transformation, regulations, and new rules to tie up the law in both straightforward and convoluted ways, and other actions to hastily circumvent MAGA, are being ginned up and rammed through as Biden goes out the door.
These perversions of executive authority, are a fitting epitaph for the lawless and incompetent Biden administration.
The question is what to do about it.
Starting January 20, the Trump administration can deploy a limited lawfare, narrowly tailored to punish present and former Biden executive-branch officials who figured they could get away with setting America on destructive paths, using the same MO as these same Biden officials imposed on the country.
I think interference in the political process (elections, blackmail of elected officials, creation of “scandals” and “gates”, and murder) to facilitate and protect a Global American Empire began sometime between 1946 and 1949, and has continued up to the present day.
The actions by the Organs of State Security against Donald Trump were remarkable, but ask yourself this: Do you really believe that, for no reason, they just started doing this stuff in 2015?
What frustrates me most is that Joe will not live long enough (be cognitive enough) to recognize just how much he is reviled
In his remaining life, I’d have wanted him to get a face full of that
An excellent summation.
Well done by VDH.
Whoooopeee is getting a really bad taste of lawfare to the tune of a $80 million lawsuit.
She is over
The theory to justify such actions is Progressivism.
The justification of Manufacturing Consent was written in 1922, as part of the whole operating theory of Progressivism.
This was the taking over of the American political system by the mind-virus of Progressivism, becoming more and more totalitarian as the victims sought ever more and more irrational “progress”.
Reality bites back. Losing control of the information flow in the USA exposed the insanity of the Progressive Left.
Thanks for posting. GREAT article listing some of the EVIL individuals operating under the label of “government”. VDH bump!
Agreed!

Bush Jr. Reaction to this Piece:
“Ok, so the Biden Administration stretched the rules ever so slightly. Even so, it’s all in the past, we need to let bygones be bygones. Time for a New Tone.”
Not to mention members of the Biden administration and their supporters in various NGOs who actively violated US Immigration Law over the last 4 years allowing the invasion of the country by well over 10 million illegal aliens.
There are LOTS of people to prosecute for the new DOJ and the reformed FBI under Kash Patel........right after they fire every single last person in each organization that was appointed by Obama/Biden or who in any way carried out the corrupt schemes of Obama/Biden.

I think this sort of thing has gone on forever. It is only with the advent of the internet that the newspaper and television editors could no longer be the gatekeepers of information.
Is Vic aware that there is a Republican wing of the Uniparty?
First he did not mention Little Beauregard Sessions in reference to the Russia hoax.
Session by recusing himself and NOT informing Trump in advance of his recusal, threw Trump to the wolves.
Trump was OWED that loyalty from his so-called party for which he had secured both the executive and legislative branches.
Then when Vic mentions the SPIES WHO LIED he failed to mention that the attorney general who replaced the TRAITOR Sessions named Billy Barr SAT on Hunter's laptop and PURPOSELY did NOTHING to verify its authenticity NOR investigate the evidence on that laptop of crimes not only by HUNTER but Joey and Joey's brother.
Hey Vic, what about this,
IRS whistleblowers revealed the FBI verified the authenticity of Hunter Biden’s laptop by November 2019, nearly a year before social media companies censored stories about it.
Hansen mentions the FBI had verified the laptop, but he fails to note they had it for a year.
Most importantly he fails to mention that Barr is in charge of DOJ and the FBI reports to the DOJ.
The FACT they had the laptop for a year and it NEVER came to light is on Billy Barr, not the Democrats nor ANYONE else.
If you believe that there was a coup as I do, then it was made possible by Barr and the FIFTY SPIES WHO LIED.
Am I accusing good ol' Vic of being a Deep Stater?
No.
But it seems he has CONVENIENTLY left out the part about the WHOLE mess cannot be laid solely on the Democrats.
There was an "inside job" component to all of this.
Trump got stabbed in back inside "his tent" by two major players Sessions and Barr. There were more accomplices in the Republican wing of the Uniparty than just those two. I leave with this thought.
Does anyone really believe that Little Beauregard did NOT discuss with China Mitch on how he should handle the "recusal" and is there any doubt that Mr. Elaine Chao said hang Trump out to dry?
I know that Sundance of CTH has detractors on this forum.
But if you want ALL the DOTS connected, you'd be better served reading his summaries than Vic's.
