THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO RULE AND LOOT AMERICA
The Joke Is Real

For the past five decades, the legacy media and virtually all of Washington, D.C. has known about Joe Biden’s corruption and penchant for being a serial fabulist and compulsive liar.
Fraud is the Only Issue
From a straight political standpoint, things are not going well for the Democrats. It’s difficult to cite a time in post-World War II America when so many things on so many fronts went this badly this quickly, and the voting public knows it’s their fault:
- Inflation at 40-year highs and spiking energy prices
- Out of control illegal immigration, being encouraged by Democrats to bolster liberal voting rolls
- Weakened military, with an inexplicable emphasis on woke social issues instead of combat readiness
- Crime running rampant, with many big-city DA’s refusing to prosecute the offenders
- Woke policies and wildly disproportionate attention on gender and diversity issues eroding the once-dependable foundation of American society
These Democrat policies have tangibly and dramatically degraded the quality of daily life in America, to the point where many people are starting to doubt that things will ever return to normal.
The Democrats are giving it their best shot to divert attention from their failures and gin up feigned outrage over nonexistent Trump-caused national transgressions, but the public isn’t buying it. No January 6th investigation, Diversity/Equity/Inclusion (“DEI”) efforts by schools and woke companies, Green initiatives, etc. are resonating with the voting public. A recent Pew Research poll of Black Americans -- historically one of the most reliable Democrat voting blocs -- reveals that crime and economic issues are their top concerns, with diversity/culture near the bottom of their list. The January 6th matter and the environment? They didn’t even make the cut; they weren’t even mentioned. --
American voters are most concerned with traditional kitchen table issues -- the job market, runaway inflation, crime/safety, energy availability and affordability, schools/education, and illegal immigration and the strain it puts on the affected communities. This is what voters care about.
The degree to which the current Democrat administration has botched all of this up is really stunning, especially since under President Trump all of these issues were essentially the best they’d ever been post-World War II.
All of the foregoing points to a 2022 mid-term disaster for the Democrats, a wipeout, an historic “red wave” that may be the biggest in history. Thirty Democrat Congresspeople are not running for re-election, surmising, no doubt, that their chances for victory are close to zero.
With no actual accomplishments to point to, having ruined everything that was running so well for the American people, Democrats are turning to what has become their most effective electoral tool in recent years: Fraud.
They did a magnificent job of perpetrating a total fraud on the country in the 2020 Presidential election. We all know what they did and what they got away with. Late night Democrat vote “discoveries” totaling in the thousands, untraceable interstate trucks delivering thousands of Biden ballots, voting locales reporting over 100% voter turnout, 19 of 20 bellwether counties being won by President Trump, Republicans not being allowed to monitor the vote counting process, state voting rules being changed in direct contravention to state law, and on and on. And this point needs to be re-emphasized: Just because the liberal media refuses to acknowledge these facts, doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.
The big question is what have the Republicans done to ensure that this degree of election-stealing fraud doesn’t happen again?
Unfortunately, it seems Republicans have done essentially nothing truly significant to stop Democrat vote fraud. There are statements from Republicans that they will be more vigilant while observing the voting process and the collection of ballots. Many Republican quarters have said they will be on the lookout for mystery trucks arriving at the polling station at 1:00 a.m. or for boxes of faked ballots being taken from their hiding places under cloth-draped tables after Republican poll workers have been kicked out.
This is all good, but the really major drivers of Democrat vote fraud still appear to be in place:
- Widespread distribution of mail-in ballots to addressees who don’t exist, have died or no longer live at that address
- Voting machines subject to manipulation from many sources, connected to the Internet despite repeated denials
- Voter drop boxes that can be tampered with and the votes changed
- Ballot harvesting in nursing homes, retirement communities and the like by Democrat operatives
- State laws having been illegally changed to allow vote counting to continue days after the election
- Early voting, even as much as a full 30 days before the election
- Automatic voter registration by state DMVs upon issuing a driver’s license, revealing the true intent behind the Democrats’ push for licenses for illegal immigrants
- No nationwide voter ID. Somehow, Democrats are fine with everyone having a Covid vaccination card, but not a voter ID.
As evidenced by their recent attempt to get Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene off the ballot, Democrats will stop at nothing to twist the 2022 mid-terms to their favor. They will flog irrelevant issues in an attempt to try to hoodwink some swing voters. They will use underhanded, unethical stunts and baseless character assassinations to keep strong Republicans off the ballot. They will push to cultivate more Democrat voters by any means whatsoever, whether those voters are qualified to vote or not. And for all these methods, the liberal mainstream media provides cover and legitimacy for the Democrats as they pull their illegitimate stunts.
Time is running out for Republicans to clean up the fraud mess to the point that the mid-terms will be acceptably accurate, with only a small, absorbable amount of fraud. There always will be some Democrat fraud. There are too many structural issues intrinsic to the election process for there not to be some Democrat fraud. But outside of a few good-sounding, suitably outraged public statements by a few high-ranking Republicans, nothing much of a tangible, concrete nature appears to have been done to stop the Democrats from stealing yet another election.
If the Democrats pull this one off (even if that just means reducing the expected loss of Congressional seats from the 45-65 range down to the 10-25 seat range), then the days of this country having reliable constitutional, voter-determined elections are over. For good.
Under Biden, meritocracy is breathing its last gasps
Joe Biden is overseeing massive sociological damage. Meritocracy and competence, bulwarks of our society, are being replaced with diversity and equity. Biden has surrendered to the extreme left wing of the Democrat party, which endorses the replacement of meritocracy with race-based criteria for advancement. "If you're black or Pacific Islander or Hispanic, go to the head of the line for a job, a promotion, a place at Harvard," said author David Horowitz. "If you're white, forget that place at Harvard, you're screwed."
Biden's dislike of meritocracy is supported by current notions of diversity, equity, and Critical Race Theory. Meritocracy and diversity are opposites. Instead of promoting people based on competence, advocates for diversity want promotions to be based on race and sex. Heather Mac Donald, author of The Diversity Delusion, has warned about the consequences of this trend. Countries like China and Russia, she said, are meritocracies. When you are a scientist in China, they don't give a damn about your race or sex. If the U.S. falls prey to identity politics, we will never be able to compete on the world stage. Within twenty years, we could easily turn into a third-world country.
Evidence of the trend is everywhere. Colleges and universities are using a quota system for admission based on race. United Airlines announced last year that by 2030, 50 percent of its flight school students will be chosen from among minorities and women. At 30,000 feet, who wants an affirmative action pilot sitting in the cockpit?
Biden has delivered on his promise that the next Supreme Court justice will be black and a woman. Biden did not say, I'm going to appoint the most competent jurist I can find, and if it happens to be a black woman, that would be good for the country. He made it clear that he intended to bribe black voters and women by appointing a black woman.
Because women and minorities have allegedly been oppressed, Critical Race Theory argues that giving them preference is justified. Hiring quotas based on race and sex violate basic notions of fairness and meritocracy. You cannot say in the same breath that giving preference to white males is racist and sexist, but giving preference to women and minorities is not. It has to work both ways.
The objective of "equity" is equality of outcome. Everyone should have the same income, job success, house, neighborhood, etc. To accomplish this, equity says we must give marginalized groups special treatment in order to even the scales and compensate for past injustices. Equity means affirmative action in employment and college admissions. Equity in housing and neighborhoods. Equity in compensation. Equity in film casting — starting in 2024, a movie that doesn't have the mandated percentage of minorities in cast and crew is not eligible for an Academy Award. The Oscars people don't care if movies are good. They have to be equitable.
Affirmative action has a divisive effect on society. "Far and away the most egregious form of government interference with the contractual rights of private persons and organizations is carried out in the name of affirmative action," says Richard Pipes in Property and Freedom. "Initially conceived as a means of enforcing principles of nondiscrimination in regard to black citizens ... [affirmative action] was soon extended to other groups and ultimately turned into a vehicle for reverse discrimination against whites and males." Nor does it do justice to the intended beneficiaries. Affirmative action recipients at colleges and universities experience a high dropout rate. Mismatch theory describes minority students who are accepted at schools beyond their aptitude, creating a sense of failure, depression, and alienation.
The left would like to see our standards lowered across the board, which would "level the playing field" and reduce our competitiveness in the world. Should we seek social justice by lowering the standards to the lowest denominator via affirmative action, or should we require the lowest denominator — in this case, minority students — to meet the higher standard? Lowering standards has given us an educational system that is producing substandard results. Statistics that show the U.S. lagging behind in educational accomplishments are proof that the left is succeeding.
Six black English professors had a tantrum in 2020 because they believe that correct grammar is a ploy of white supremacists. They allege that requiring black students to use standard rules of grammar is racist because those rules were created by whites. The danger posed by this attack on English grammar and usage is that, if taken to its logical conclusion, it will lead to a demand that the pursuit of excellence is unacceptable because it is intrinsically a product of white supremacy.
Going in for surgery will become an act of suicide, as surgeons will no longer be held to "white" standards of excellence. The expectation of safe air travel will become a thing of the past as the requirement for competent pilots is discarded as another symptom of white supremacy. Excellence developed by white people in any and all forms of human endeavor will become manifestations of systemic racism. No longer will we admire successful businessmen such as the founders of Microsoft, Apple, and Google. Brilliant legal scholars — as functionaries of the white legal system — will be despised. And, of course, the entire structure of American government, including separation of powers and checks and balances, will have to be jettisoned because it was developed by racist white people.
Affirmative action is not enforced in the NBA, whose players are 74 percent black. All that matters is how well you play basketball. For the same reason, merit ought to be applied to airline pilots, Marines, and brain surgeons. When I am flying over the Pacific Ocean, I want the most qualified pilot sitting at the controls. As a former Marine, I appreciate that combat units should not have their standards lowered simply to accommodate women or transgenders. When I am being operated on for a brain tumor, I don't want to look up and see the winner of this year's social justice award.
We can't afford to do away with competence. The only way to assure the pursuit of excellence is to affirm our belief in meritocracy.

Chris Hedges | Warnings On CENSORSHIP
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Knb-Cck5Co4
t was while Joe Biden was vice-president that the flood gates opened and what was a domestic influence-peddling business expanded globally into Ukraine, China, Russia and Kazakhstan, among other nations. The layers of greed and unabashed willingness to sell access to the second-highest office in the country is mind-boggling. The most egregious examples are five deals with the Communist Chinese and the subsequent payments to Hunter Biden and the Biden family valued at $31 million.
Media Research Center: Big Tech Has Censored Biden Criticism More Than 600 Times
Data released by media bias watchdog Media Research Center (MRC) has found that Big Tech companies including Twitter and Facebook have censored criticism of Joe Biden 646 times from the start of the 2020 presidential election cycle to today.
The data was gathered through MRC’s CensorTrack database, which tracks censorship of prominent political voices by leading Silicon Valley platforms.
Via the Media Research Center:
Big Tech’s campaign to protect President Joe Biden and his agenda has continued unabated. The Media Research Center found more than 640 examples of bans, deleted content and other speech restrictions placed on those who criticized Biden on social media over the past two years. This included 140 cases of Big Tech censoring people over the New York Post’s bombshell Hunter Biden story in late 2020.
MRC Free Speech America tallied 646 cases in its CensorTrack database of pro-Biden censorship between March 10, 2020, and March 10, 2022. The tally included cases from Biden’s presidential candidacy to the present day.
The worst cases of censorship involved platforms targeting anyone who dared to speak about any subject related to the New York Post bombshell Hunter Biden story. The Post investigated Hunter Biden and the Biden family’s allegedly corrupt foreign business dealings. Big Tech’s cancellation of that story helped shift the 2020 election in Biden’s favor. Twitter locked the Post’s account for 17 days. In addition, Twitter slapped a “warning label” on the GOP House Judiciary Committee’s website for linking to the Post story.
A poll previously by the MRC found that Big Tech censorship of the Hunter Biden story probably cost Trump the election, with a large number of responders saying they would have voted differently had they known about the story.
