ATTACK! ATTACK! ATTACK! - THE DEMOCRAT PARTY AT WORK ON DESTROYING AMERICA FOR THEIR GLOBALIST AGENDA TO SERVE THE BILLIONAIRE CLASS The attack on so-called ‘Christian nationalists’ is more nefarious than you realize

REALITY: THE LAWYER-INFESTED DEMOCRAT PARTY IS THE NEO-FASCIST ARM OF THE WALL STREET PARTY. THEY MUST BE DESTROYED BEFORE THEY DESTROY AMERIA!


 

JOE BIDEN is known as a serial liar, a "public servant" who has somehow managed to accrue tremendous wealth, a race-baiting opportunist, Catholic-in-name-only, and a bought-and-paid-for politician in bed with criminal cartels and foreign foes.  In another era, Joe Biden would have been run out of his country much the same way Benedict Arnold was two and a half centuries ago; in an era when integrity, honor, fortitude, fidelity, and grit have been jettisoned for immorality, unscrupulousness, weakness, betrayal, and craven pliability, however, he is elevated to king sleazeball in a city drowning in sleaze.

THE LAWYER-INFESTED BIDEN REGIME IS A LAWLESS OPERATION NO DIFFERENT THAN THE OBAMA BANKSTER REGIME!

TELL FUKHEAD BIDEN THE JUDICIAL, F.B.I., D.O.J., AND D.H.S., ARE NOT HIS FUKING AGENCIES!

Here is the problem in a nutshell.  Most Democrat voters don't realize that leftist idealogues have hijacked the Democrat party, actively pushing traditional Democrat politicians out.  They don't yet understand that the Democrat party they knew doesn't exist anymore.  Almost all of the major news organizations work together to lie to Democrat voters and feed them misinformation constantly.  Corrupted government entities like the FBI and the DOJ, and the leftists running all social media, have worked together to censor and silence any dissenting voices.  The goal is to create a false reality in the eyes of Democrat voters and shield them from the truth.  This is vital to ensure their continued support on Election Day.                                                    IAN MacCONNELL




I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue and stoke anti-white racism, actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms, are hostile to people of faith and spirituality, demonize the police and protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans, believe in open borders, weaponize the national security state to go after political opponents, and above all, dragging us ever closer to undeclared nuclear war.                                             TULSI GABBARD

For George Soros it was about control to gain influence, access, and special treatment.  After the election Biden formed a transition team that staffed itself with people connected to Soros.

But his money also played a part.  Soros spent over $70 million on activities that backed Biden's candidacy.  Soros bought frequent access to Obama.  That access returned under Biden.  Biden's Kampf

THE DEMOCRAT PARTY’S OPEN BORDERS FOR CHEAP LABOR

Those are the subliterate, low-skill, non-English-speaking indigents whose own societies are unable or unwilling to usefully educate and employ them. Bring these people here and they not only need a lot of services, they are putty in the hands of leftist demogogues as Hugo Chavez demonstrated - and they are very useful as leftist voters who will support the Soros agenda.

‘Breaking Biden’ Author: ‘Biden Crime Family’ Would Be in ‘Handcuffs’ if U.S. Had a ‘Responsible Department of Justice’

Breitbart Editor-in-Chief and New York Times bestselling Breaking Biden author Alex Marlow told YouTuber Stephen Gardner the Bidens would be in “handcuffs” if the United States “had a responsible Department of Justice.”

 

“Protect and enrich.” This is a perfect encapsulation of the Clinton Foundation  (TWO GAMER LAWYERS - OWNED BY GEORGE SOROS) (WHAT ABOUT THE CHINA BIDEN PENN CENTER?)  and the Obama (TWO GAMER LAWYERS - OWNED BY GEORGE SOROS) book and television deals. Then there is the Biden family (FOUR GAMER LAWYERS - JOE, HUNTER, JAMES, FRANK - OWNED BY GEORGE SOROS AND LARRY FINK OF BLACKROCK)  corruption, followed closely behind by similar abuses of power and office by the Warren (GAMER LAWYER) and Sanders families, as Peter Schweizer described in his recent book “Profiles in Corruption.” These names just scratch the surface of government corruption (ADD GAMER LAWYER KAMALA HARRIS (WANTS TO BE OWNED BY GEORGE SOROS) AND HER LAWYER HUSBAND AND THE BANKSTERS’ RENT BOY, LAWYER CHUCK SCHUMER, OWNED BY LARRY FINK OF BLACKROCK WHO OWNS A BIG PIECE OF THE ‘BIG GUY’ JOE, AND GEORGE SOROS’ RENT BOY (GAMER LAWYER) TONY BLINKEN, AS WELL AS CON MAN (GAMER LAWYER) ADAM SHIFF) AND HIS CORRUPTNESS (GAMER LAWYER) BOB MENENDEZ STILL EVADING PRISON.

The attack on so-called ‘Christian nationalists’ is more nefarious than you realize

A Politico reporter appearing on MSNBC garnered headlines because she said that (gasp!) so-called “Christian nationalists” believe that our rights come from God and not from the government. Those Christian beliefs, of course, align perfectly with Enlightenment thinking and the magnificent introduction to the Declaration of Independence. Many have seen her statement as a way to empower government. But the real stinger is hidden in the word “nationalism.” For the left, that’s code for Hitler. She just called everyone who believes in natural rights “Hitler.”

According to Heidi Przybyla, a Politico reporter, America is under attack from “Christian nationalists”:

The thing that unites them as Christian nationalists, not Christians because Christian nationalists are very different, is that they believe that our rights as Americans and as all human beings do not come from any Earthly authority. They don’t come from Congress, from the Supreme Court, they come from God,” she explained. “The problem with that is that they are determining, men, are determining what God is telling them.”

As Silvio Canto pointed out just today, what these “Christian nationalists” believe aligns perfectly with our Declaration of Independence. Rights that come from God are inherent in every human being. The rights she wants—those from human institutions—are merely privileges. What the government giveth, the government can taketh away.

In other words, Przybyla is just a garden-variety leftist.

What’s more concerning is the word “nationalist.” That’s the same word Rob Reiner uses in his dismally performing “God and Country.” The headlines from reports about the movie tell it all. Here’s just a sampling (emphasis added):

  • Washington Post: ‘God & Country’ film spotlights Christian nationalism’s threat to democracy
  • The Hollywood Reporter: Rob Reiner Takes on Christian Nationalism Threat in ‘God & Country’ Trailer
  • Axios: First look: Film dives into threats of Christian nationalism

To date, the movie has been a massive flop. Despite the media’s approval, it had a $38,000 opening, which is impressively awful.

The issue, though, isn’t whether anyone sees the movie. The issue is the word “nationalism.”  That’s the real smear.

At a dictionary level, “nationalism” is an unobjectionable word about people in a geographic region coming together for a common cause:

spirit or aspirations common to the whole of a nation:

He describes how the intense and unconquerable nationalism of India’s hundreds of millions contributed to the decline of the British empire.

devotion and loyalty to one's own country; patriotism:

The promotion of a healthy nationalism is part of the responsibility of the leaders of a newly independent, diverse nation.

However, on the left, while it may be good for non-white people to have national aspirations, it’s a very bad thing when white people do it.

I learned that when I had a Swedish exchange student living with us for a year. The first thing he did on his arrival was pin a Swedish flag on his wall. I thought it was nice. He—a good leftist—explained that it made him a renegade. Growing up, displaying a flag that showed pride in one’s nation was analogous to being…Hitler. On the left, white people and patriotism are Hitlerism.

But, of course, nationalism and patriotism have nothing to do with a megalomaniac who inspires his people to set out on a course of genocide and world domination. That was Germany’s peculiar spiritual corruption when its loss in WWI led to Germany’s economic and cultural collapse.

For leftists, who always conveniently forget that Hitler was a socialist, the answer to Hitlerism/nationalism is globalism. If we become true globalists (Marx’s “workers of the world unite”), world domination is irrelevant (“We are the world”), and genocide cannot happen.

That’s nonsense, of course. The globalist response to Hamas’s genocidal attack on Israel (“You go, guys!”) shows that globalism simply puts evil on steroids. Big government is a force multiplier. World government is a nuclear force multiplier.

In the 1980s, the left didn’t challenge the phrase “Moral Majority.” Leftists found it repugnant, so they didn’t realize that ordinary Americans liked the idea of morality, especially after the debauchery of the 1960s and 1970s.

This time around, though, leftists are making sure to own the language. So, no matter how silly Przybyla sounds or how badly the box office for Rob Reiner’s movie, take what they’re doing very seriously because they’re aggressively shifting the Overton window for appropriate political discourse about Christianity itself. It’s no longer a religion; it’s Naziism.


The 8th Amendment comes out in favor of Trump

On February 16, 2024, a judge in New York State imposed fines totaling just over $360 million on former president Donald J. Trump, The Trump Organization, and several related Trump companies and trusts in the civil case brought by the New York attorney general.  President Trump’s sons Donald Trump, Jr. and Eric Trump were fined just over $4 million each.  The court imposed additional sanctions, including injunctions against former president Trump; Donald Trump, Jr.; and Eric Trump from serving as officers or directors in New York corporations for specified numbers of years, among other sanctions.

The media reporting on the court’s decision has been massive since the decision was rendered.  However, little or no reporting focused on the constitutionality of the fines under the Eighth Amendment to the United States Constitution.  President Trump and his co-defendants all have substantial 8th Amendment “excessive fine” challenges to raise.  In fact, a review of the facts and applicable law reveal that this decision is simply more election interference.

Background about the Case

The fines stem from a civil suit filed by New York attorney general Letitia James in 2022, claiming that former president Trump and his companies used falsely inflated asset valuations and misleading financial statements in dealings with lenders.  The suit alleges various different claims, chief among them the New York State Executive Law Section 63(12) “fraudulent or illegal acts” claims.

Importantly, the Trump case involved no victims.  The court could not order any lender to be paid back or made whole, because the lenders not only were paid back, but all made money on the loans made to Trump.  Since the case did not present any victims, the New York judge ordered what is known as disgorgement — that is, to give up “profits.”  In this case, the court relied on expert testimony submitted by the State of New York to claim that the Trumps’ “profits” were lower interest rates on various loans.  

The court ordered Trump and his companies to cough up $168 million on supposedly “ill-gotten interest savings” on multiple loans involving several different commercial properties.  On this issue, the court simply fails to acknowledge the fact that “recourse” loans, like those involved in the Trump case, entitle the borrower to lower interest rates.  A good discussion of the court’s error in this regard may be found here.  

The court also fined former president Trump over $126,000,000 based on his profit from the sale of the “Old Post Office” in Washington, D.C.  Trump purchased the Old Post Office in 2012, and, after remodeling it and turning it into a hotel, the Trump Organization sold its interest in it in 2022 for $375 million.  Again, the court ordered “disgorgement” of the profits, finding that the original $170-million loan obtained by the Trump Organization to finance the purchase and renovation of the property was obtained using false financial statements.

Finally, the court ordered “disgorgement” of some $60 million in profits obtained by Trump on the assignment or sale of a contract on a public golf course in the Bronx called Ferry Point for the same reasons. 

The Eighth Amendment Problem

The Eighth Amendment to the United States Constitution provides that “excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishment inflicted.”

The New York court’s ruling ordering the Trumps to pay over $360 million under New York State law likely violates the Eighth Amendment prohibition on “excessive fines.”  

First, in 2019, The United States Supreme Court held that the Eighth Amendment prohibition on “excessive fines” applies to states, not just to actions by the federal government.  Thus, New York State fines are subject to the Eighth Amendment.  Next, while the fines imposed by the New York Court in the Trump case are characterized as “disgorgement,” the United States Supreme Court and federal appellate decisions confirm that “disgorgements” are penalties or fines for purposes of federal law.  Thus, the New York Court’s “disgorgement” penalties are subject to an “excessive fine” challenge under the Eighth Amendment.

The United States Supreme Court’s decision in U.S. v. Bajakajian adopted the standard of “gross disproportionality” in excessive fines determinations.  If the amount of the fine or forfeiture is “grossly disproportional to the gravity of the defendant’s offense, it is unconstitutional.”  Importantly, an excessive fines challenge is reviewed de novo by the reviewing court.  This means the higher court reviews this question without any deference to the lower court’s decision and is free to substitute its judgment for that of the lower court.

As the United States Supreme Court’s decisions instruct, the focus of the “grossly disproportional” inquiry is on the following factors:

(1) the degree of the defendant’s reprehensibility or culpability

(2) the relationship between the penalty and the harm to the victim caused by the defendant’s actions

(3) the sanctions imposed in other cases for comparable misconduct

Applying these factors to the New York court’s decision reveals that the fines are clearly excessive.  There are no victims in the Trump case.  No one was harmed.  Each and every financial institution involved was fully repaid and made money on its loans.  Further, a review of case law in New York demonstrates that there simply are no cases ordering a defendant to pay hundreds of millions of dollars in disgorgement without any victim being deprived of anything.  Finally, just how “reprehensible” is it to obtain loans and credit facilities and then pay the lenders back, in full, on time, in compliance with the agreement?  The answer is, not very.

Once again, a court in New York issued yet another political decision masquerading as justice.  The fines imposed by this New York court on former President Trump and his sons and businesses are grossly and unconstitutionally excessive.  While President Trump and his co-defendants undoubtedly have many defenses to the claims to raise on appeal, chief among them should be a constitutional challenge to these grossly excessive fines.
