America Faces No Greater Threat Than Joe Biden and the Democrat Party. Their Assault to Our Borders Is As Great As Their Assault to Free Speech and Free Elections

WHAT PRICE DOES AMERICA PAY FOR LETTING BANKSTERS AND BLACKROCK PUT A SOCIOPATH GAMER LAWYER LIKE JOE BIDEN IN POWER?
Throughout his political career, Joe Biden said that he was personally opposed to abortion because good Catholics like himself believe life begins at conception and, therefore, he supported the Hyde Amendment that prohibited the use of federal funds for abortion.
In 2019, when he ran for president in a strongly pro-abortion Democratic Party, he suddenly discovered that he opposed the Hyde Amendment and now believes in using federal funds to violate his sacred religious views on the sanctity of life.
Similarly, in 2015, Biden stated that, as a good Catholic, he believes that life begins at conception, but in 2021, as president, paralysed by the crowd of radical pro-abortionists in his party, he discovered that he no longer believes that.
In 2019, when Donald Trump was president, Biden harshly criticized Trump for “coddling” Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman who had murdered and dismembered Saudi Washington Post op-ed contributtor Jamal Khashoggi. Biden promised to punish Salman. In 2022, however, after having been installed as president by the Left and undergone an astonishingly quick conversion to his party’s radical green agenda, Biden found himself forced to go, hat in hand, to the murderer-torturer prince to beg for an increase oil production, and, in a heartfelt show of brotherhood with the killer, Biden fist-bumped Salman. The earlier talk of punishing the prince was, as usual, so much straw, not a genuine belief. In response to criticism for his flip-flop on his response to the Saudi murderer-torturer, Biden laughed.
In 2006, back in the old days when border security was regarded as common sense in both parties, Biden literally yelled at an audience that because Mexico’s corrupt government that keeps the people in poverty and sends “tons” of cocaine and heroin into the U.S., he courageously voted for a 700-mile fence at the border and did not care if people did not like it. He also yelled at the same audience that in order to secure the border, it would be necessary to punish employers who hired illegal aliens. In fact, as president, Biden alternates in his speeches between angrily yelling at people and creepily whispering to them.
In 2020, however, months before the November 2020 election that pitted him against Trump, and needing a campaign argument against Trump’s proposal to put a wall at the southern border, Biden suddenly discovered that he didn’t like barriers at the southern border at all. Biden angrily told the audience: “The impulse is to ... shut the gates, build walls,” but: "There will not be another foot of wall constructed on my administration!"
Perhaps, most famously, Biden stated in his inauguration speech that “I will be a president for all Americans.” It must therefore be a surprise that he recently declared that the 74 million Americans who voted Donald Trump are “the most extreme political organization in political history,” sounding more like their declared enemy than their president.
Biden is not the only Democrat whose sacred positions change when the political winds blow. In the June 2019 presidential debates, Kamala Harris, stuffed full of politically useful racial animus, “sharply criticized” Biden for his past praise for racial segregationists. However, when, in an August 2019 interview, Stephen Colbert asked her how she could criticize Biden on such basic issues of principle so harshly and then support him for the Democrat presidential nominee, Harris, laughing, said several times, “It was a debate.” She doesn’t even hide the fact she feels no responsibility to tell the truth to the American people anymore. She wanted to be the president, and since power is the most important thing to her, she fabricated a narrative in an attempt to get the Democrat nomination and laughed about it.
One must also consider the surreal Cuban-born Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas who has recently stated several times, with a straight face, that the U.S. southern border is secure. Comrade Mayorkas does not, apparently, think that the American people can see the endless caravans of destitute and not-so-destitute people crossing the border into the U.S., some explicitly thanking Biden for the invitation, shown regularly on the nightly news. Nor does he appear to have noticed the fact that a recent United Nations report stated that the U.S. southern border, with “historically high number of migrants dying in the Rio Grande and on U.S. soil this year,” is the world’s deadliest land crossing.
One could continue adding similar examples indefinitely but everyone, including Democrats, can see what’s going on already even if they are unwilling to admit it.
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a new philosophy called “existentialism,” advanced by such diverse philosophical and literary figures as Friedrich Nietzsche, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Franz Kafka, Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre, Gabriel Marcel, Karl Jaspers, Martin Heidegger, T.S. Eliot and others, began to emerge. Although existentialism is a very diverse philosophy, it was often a reaction to a world in which everything had become inauthentic, hollow and false. In response, existentialists called for a return to authenticity, i.e., to return to one’s true self or destiny from the near universal “lostness” in “the crowd.”
Of course, it didn’t work. A few obscure philosophers cannot change the way of the world. The existentialist’s call for a return to authenticity inevitably decayed into a purely academic attempt to publish more verbiage as the world happily returned to the usual “human all too human” pursuit of money and power in the “wasteland” of the crowd. Philosophers found other things, like the “language of thought hypothesis,” to amuse themselves. Only a handful ever really thought that human life is worth taking seriously.
Our present age is much like that age that spawned the rise of existentialism. Presidents don’t preside, the police don’t police, teachers don’t teach, prosecutors don’t prosecute, news outlets cover up the news, “intelligence” agencies aren’t intelligent, pastors don’t believe in the Bible, etc. It seems that no one believes, authentically believes, anything anymore, and the few that do are investigated. Everything has become false, a con, an empty gesture, a bumper sticker, a joke. Of course, people mouth the required words in order to obtain power or, at least, a paycheck but most are actors who don’t know they are acting.
What America desperately needs is a real statesman, a solid reality who, even if they are coarse, some coarseness being, apparently, one of the concomitants of authenticity, actually believes what they say. Unfortunately, that is not the age we live in,
We are the hollow men We are the stuffed men Leaning together Headpiece filled with straw. Alas! Our dried voices, when We whisper together Are quiet and meaningless.
This problem, that has been building for a long time, is not going to end well for the United States or the world.

Blue State Blues: The Political Corruption of the DOJ
The Department of Justice (DOJ) was reported this week to have begun a criminal investigation of former President Donald Trump in connection with his effort to contest the 2020 election.
Also this week, the DOJ was accused of having spiked its own investigation of President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, based on false clams that reports of his misconduct were just “disinformation.” And last week, the DOJ convinced a D.C. jury to convict Stephen K. Bannon, a Trump associate and former Breitbart News executive chairman, for contempt of Congress.
Notably, the DOJ declined to prosecute past left-wing offenders for the same crime — such as Lois Lerner, the former IRS official who targeted conservative groups; and former Attorney General Eric Holder, who refused to provide Congress with information about Operation Fast & Furious, a gunrunning fiasco that led to the murder of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry.
And few at DOJ were punished for the “Russia collusion” hoax, a partisan operation that involved lying to the FISA court.
We are witnessing the transformation of the DOJ into an arm of the Democratic Party.
There have always been a few partisan prosecutors, but the political corruption began in earnest under President Barack Obama, who declined to prosecute members of the New Black Panther Party for voter intimidation; gave millions of dollars to left-wing groups from DOJ fines; and imposed DOJ consent decrees on police in Democrat-run cities to appease Black Lives Matter.
In 2016, the DOJ attempted to influence the presidential election in several ways — first, by declining to prosecute former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in open-and-shut cases of mishandling classified information; second, by investigating Trump for “Russia collusion”; and third, by trying to sanitize the anticipated Hillary Clinton presidency by reopening the inquiry into her emails — a move that backfired spectacularly.
The “Russia collusion” probe continued into the Trump era, fueling efforts to undo the results of a democratic election, and arguably denting Trump’s ability to conduct foreign policy.
Throughout the left-wing riots that gripped the country in 2020, the DOJ was remarkably passive. Attorney General William Barr directed law enforcement on the streets of D.C. as Black Lives Matter and Antifa attacked the White House, but FBI Director Christopher Wray led efforts to deny that Antifa was a threat, insisting it was an “ideology,” not an organization.
The DOJ seemed to shrug at the riots that raged in 48 out of 50 major U.S. cities. And it dithered for years after Hunter Biden’s influence-peddling came to light. The FBI did nothing about his laptop, which it seemed to have seized in 2019 to cover up the story rather than to follow up on evidence of corruption at the highest level.
But after the Capitol riot on January 6, 2021, the DOJ prosecuted participants aggressively even for minor offenses, and detained non-violent suspects for months.
Now comes the news that Trump is being investigated by the DOJ in connection with January 6 — reportedly for “seditious conspiracy and conspiracy to obstruct a government proceeding” and “potential fraud associated with the false-electors scheme” or efforts to pressure officials to claim the election was fraudulent.
The timing of the news gave undue legitimacy to the January 6 Committee, a one-sided, arguably unlawful and unconstitutional show trial with obvious political motivations.
The DOJ inquiry is supposedly independent of the January 6 Committee, but there have already been reports that the DOJ has asked the Committee to hand over transcripts of witness depositions — given behind closed doors, and with few of the basic protections they would ordinarily have in a criminal inquiry.
In effect, the DOJ appears to have deputized the committee to carry out its own law enforcement functions — a violation of the Constitution’s separation of powers and the Bill of Rights.
After months of investigation, and more than 1,000 witnesses, the committee turned up nothing on Trump except the claim that he should have done more, or acted sooner, to stop the riot.
Trump did what many of the Democrats on the committee had done themselves: oppose the certification of electors from states where the results were controversial. He also organized a protest to influence a Congressional vote — an activity guaranteed by the protections of the First Amendment.
Notably, the DOJ is declining to prosecute the left-wing protesters who have besieged the homes of conservative Supreme Court justices in an effort to pressure them on the abortion issue — despite a specific federal law barring such protests as an exception to the First Amendment because they represent a threat to impartial justice and an independent judiciary.
The DOJ’s indulgence was followed by an attempt on the life of Justice Brett Kavanaugh by a leftist who, luckily, called 911 on himself.
Both President Biden and Attorney General Merrick Garland promised to “depoliticize” the DOJ, referring to the bogus claims by Democrats that Trump “politicized” it because Barr would not break federal law and hand over grand jury materials to Democrats desperate to smear Trump.
It was Trump, actually, who depoliticized the DOJ — or tried to, though he ran into the resistance of careerists and holdovers who were willing to break the law in their effort to undermine his presidency.
Garland told NBC News that the DOJ would not hesitate to prosecute Trump even if he were a candidate for president in 2024. That is the right policy — though the DOJ did not apply it to Hillary Clinton or Joe Biden. Worse, it followed Hillary Clinton’s lead in smearing and spying on her opponent, and covered up legitimate questions about Biden’s conflicts of interest. To this day, the perpetrators of the “Russia collusion” hoax remain unpunished for what was, in effect, a silent coup attempt.
Now the DOJ is apparently trying to find a way to put Trump behind bars, and satisfy the Democrats’ lust for revenge for 2016. This is what happens in Third World countries.
I witnessed it happening in my native South Africa, where the ruling clique began using petty investigations to discredit the opposition and internal rivals. Today, South Africa is on the verge of being a failed state.
The political corruption of the DOJ is likewise undermining faith in the rule of law; it must be stopped.

The ideal of justice is a blindfolded woman poised and still and holding slowly balancing scales. At the Department of Justice over the last several years, the practice of justice is more like an inflatable flailing tube man.
In the lead-up to the 2016 election, everyone thought that department prosecutors would decide whether to charge Hillary Clinton based on whether she knowingly violated a criminal statute prohibiting mishandling of classified material. It turned out that then-FBI Director James Comey would decide on the basis of what he thought was “reasonable.” After letting Clinton off, the tube man flailed right and Comey, breaking procedure against commenting on a pending investigation, announced that the Clinton probe was back on.
From then, the Justice Department only got worse. Comey told the country that one reason not to charge Clinton was that the department had never before charged someone for conduct similar to hers. Yet after Comey, the department went on to spend years investigating the then-sitting President not only for conduct never before charged but for crimes no one even knew were crimes -- like bad tweeting. A dusty old law chiefly prohibiting cheating the federal government out of money would be stapled to President Trump’s tweets and taped to an obstruction-of-justice charge and then the President was going to be marched off to prison for conspiracy to steal an election -- or so the department led the country’s credulous Left to believe for years.
Gone are the days of Comey’s somewhat evenhanded blundering. The flailing man’s hands are now in an unmistakable search for the necks of its political opponents. Consider the unruly Capitol protest following the 2020 election. For the protesters, the department has dusted off the charge of “seditious conspiracy.”
The last time the department charged seditious conspiracy, in 2010, it went after a group of Christian nationalists. The charge got thrown out of court. The last time the department made the charge stick was about thirty years ago -- against Islamic terrorists who plotted to blow up the FBI and United Nations headquarters. In that case, seditious conspiracy was icing atop an already well-baked cake of indisputable crime. But for the Capitol protesters, the charge is the essential ingredient with which the department hopes to turn a protest into Pearl Harbor. Without seditious conspiracy, all the Department can serve its political masters for desert are uncoordinated offenses against the public peace, mostly misdemeanors like trespass, in a protest otherwise well within the guarantee of the First Amendment.
Offenses against the public peace hardly moved the department when leftists tormented hundreds of cities and towns across America in the lead-up to the 2020 election. They killed many, assaulted thousands of policemen, and caused billions in damages. For them, the department took a break from its legal MacGyverism. Although groups of leftists organizing online sought “to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of... law[s] of the United States,” none faced charges for seditious conspiracy -- even after attacking federal courthouses, ICE facilities, and even the White House itself.
For the worst of the leftist rioters, department prosecutors played the role of defense lawyers. They pleaded with a federal judge to go easy on one Montez Terriel Lee, Jr., who burned a man to death in a Minnesota business he set on fire because -- and this is a quote from the department’s actual brief -- Mr. Lee, a five-time convict, “credibly state[ed] that he was in the streets to protest unlawful police violence against black men, and there is no basis to disbelieve” him. The brief even urged the judge to see that “a riot is the language of the unheard,” profanely quoting the revered apostle of non-violence, Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.
For Lee, the tube man flailed so far left it became a windsock in a gale and snapped.
Federal sentencing guidelines called for Lee to get 20 years in prison. The department wanted him to get no more than 12. For Guy Wesley Reffitt, a Capitol protester who had no serious criminal past, hurt no one, and never even entered the Capitol building, guidelines call for about 10 years. The department wants to stick him with 15.
For Reffitt, in the department’s view, a riot is not the “language of the unheard” but an “attack on our democracy” -- by which the Department means Lee’s democracy and not Reffitt’s. In the democracy the department cares to protect, whether Reffitt sincerely believed that he was the one defending American democracy from an unlawful attack isn’t worth even a moment’s note because Reffitt backed the wrong guy -- and nothing is worse than that. Not even murder.
Since President Trump’s election, the animating principle of the Justice Department has boiled down to one rule: “get him.” Reffitt’s is just another body the Department plans to climb over to reach Trump -- whom it wants to charge as the ringleader of a popular paroxysm that it helped to stoke by its own corruption but which it tries to dress up as the brainchild of the one man it most hates. And Lee, the Minnesota rioter, is just another soldier granted pardon for his service in the Left’s anti-Trump politics.
The Justice Department is unlikely ever to reform itself. It is fast racking up taxpayer bills approaching 100 million dollars going after Trump and his supporters while spending but virtual pennies to put leftist rioters in jail. Its problem is its people. Department lawyers like Jeffrey S. Nestler in Reffitt’s case and Thomas Calhoun-Lopez in Lee’s are model and longstanding Department employees. That’s the problem.
The task of reforming the department will fall to a Republican Party doing its voters’ will -- and perhaps also to a reelected President Trump himself. For no matter how brazen the department’s corruptions become, there will never be enough space in jail for the over 74 million Americans who, in 2020, voted for President Trump’s reelection despite the most strenuous efforts of his most committed enemies.

THE ENTIRE BIDEN FAMILY IN BED WITH RED CHINA
Jesse Watters: Joe Biden just proved he's compromised
The author of Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, explained, “This started out as a Hunter Biden story and is now with Joe Biden story. He is at the center. He is the planet which the moons in the family Hunter Biden and James Biden revolve.”
Secretary of Homeland Security (GAMER LAWYER) Alejandro Mayorkas
Mayorkas insists that our border is secure and there is no illegal immigration crisis. His greatest skill is that he seems to lie more effortlessly, more easily in front of the camera than any of the other cabinet members. He has probably done more damage to the country than any other cabinet member by his willingness to betray America’s fundamental, long-term interests by encouraging the administration’s intentional illegal immigration invasion.
Watters: The Five (CRIME) Families of the Democrat Party
Joe Biden, the corrupt, unaccomplished 47-year career politician, with a reputation of having been a proud segregationist, an unabashed plagiarist and liar, a resolute tale-teller, and a serial flip-flopper, is pretending to head up a radical social-democratic ticket for President of the United States that includes as his running mate the ambitious, disagreeable junior senator fromCalifornia: Kamala Harris.
Joe Biden didn’t do anything wrong? A time-honored method of taking bribes is having them paid to a family member, usually in exchange for nominal or nonexistent services. It is comical to watch “reporters” pretend not to understand this.
MONICA SHOWALTER
There’s also the little problem of Hillary’s incredible corruption (making her and Biden birds of a feather). And of course, the fact that Hillary’s unsecure server damaged national security in a way that would have seen an ordinary, politically unconnected person spend the rest of her life in prison—which, not coincidentally, is where Papa Joe belongs for using his debauched son Hunter as the bagman for decades of anti-American corruption
ANDREA WIDBURG
“Protect and enrich.” This is a perfect encapsulation of the Clinton Foundation and the Obama book and television deals. Then there is the Biden family corruption, followed closely behind by similar abuses of power and office by the Warren and Sanders families, as Peter Schweizer described in his recent book “Profiles in Corruption.” These names just scratch the surface of government corruption. BRIAN C JOONDEPH
What’s really baffling is Hunter’s success with women. Despite being a total loser with a terrible drug habit and some weird sexual perversions, Hunter managed to seduce his brother’s widow, her sister, a stripper, and the woman he married, all over the course of four years. It’s enough to make one think that Hunter’s charm had less to do with the man himself and more with the benefits flowing from the Biden family cartel. ANDREA WIDBERG
As a senator, Biden vigorously voted for several similar bills. In short, based on his voting record, Joe Biden is not (and never was) a champion of disadvantaged Americans, unless you consider multi-billion-dollar credit card corporations and millionaires “disadvantaged.” Chris Talgo
Nancy Pelosi, a horrid woman equally as without heart and soul, on Tuesday refused to have the names of the thirteen soldiers killed in Kabul read out on the floor of the House. That should permanently indict her for being the wicked witch she is. She is more devious, more calculating than the irresponsible Biden but every bit as beyond redemption as he is. She will do anything to try to convince the American people, for whom she has only contempt, that whatever she and her party do is righteous no matter how loathsome and totalitarian. PATRICIA McCARTHY
Biden lied about his undergraduate degree and his majors, lied about his rank in law school, lied aboutscholarships and educational aid he had received, lied about his stance toward the Vietnam war while in college, lied about his plagiarism of other politician's writings and speeches, lied about the circumstances around his first wife's fatal accident, lied about how he met his second and current wife, and lied about the affair they were having when they were both married. MARK CHRISTIAN
Most recently and dramatically, Biden lied about his knowledge of his son's shady dealings, lied about his own involvement in corruption and ribery, and lied about his current presidential agenda and what he wants to implement in regards to energy, fracking, court-packing, health care, education, and COVID among other issues.
