DEMONS FROM HELL UNLEASHED
When I fired up my computer yesterday morning and the Trump-hating MSN home page came up, this was one of the headlines emblazoned across the screen (click on the link):
Supreme Court Decisions Revive Civil War Era Law Against Insurrectionists
The first sentence in the piece reads like this (caps mine for emphasis):
"The U.S. Supreme Court’s recent actions have initiated A NOVEL LEGAL ERA, allowing for the DISQUALIFICATON OF STATE AND LOCAL OFFICIALS from office FOR LIFE UNDER ACCUSATIONS of insurrection or supporting the nation’s adversaries, leveraging a Reconstruction-era constitutional provision."
Does anyone see in this outrageous language what immediately jumped out at me? What are these treasonous demons trying to sell?
What is being asserted here is that, in what the writer acknowledges is "a novel legal era" - a departure from traditional legal practice - there is an effort to "leverage" an earlier post-Civil War law intended to prevent, post-war, Confederate officials - true insurrectionists - from holding federal office, using this law for a "novel" purpose not originally intended. This is a sly acknowledgement that what is being suggested or attempted in the law here has never been done before - and notwithstanding the Supreme Court's recent ruling that states have no power to remove from their ballots federal candidates - in this case Donald Trump - on the state and local level someone can be disqualified from serving in or running for office SIMPLY BY BEING ACCUSED of - not charged, tried and convicted of - "insurrection or supporting the nation's enemies".
Simply accuse a man of “insurrection or supporting the nation’s enemies” and, at least on the state and local level, you can disempower him politically for the rest of his life. In reality, since local and state politics are typically springboards to national politics, you would also effectively be able to hobble or entirely disable your political opponent on the national level simply by neutering him on the state level. Why bother with a free and fair election based on competing ideas? Just accuse you opponent of insurrection! What a cool deal!
This whole evil mentality - rooted in a fanatical, degenerate lust for power that must be satisfied no matter what deadly price the nation has to pay - is obviously a vicious repudiation of what is perhaps the bedrock principle of American justice - THE PRESUMPTION OF INNOCENCE UNTIL GUILT IS PROVEN. And believe me, ladies and gentlemen, if this bedrock principle of our law - that guilt must be proven - is trashed, the nation and people will have entered a Brave New World - GUILT BY ACCUSATION. We then will have paid and will continue to pay in the future a very high price indeed - likely a terminal price.
This, of course, is exactly what the corrupt, anti-American RINO/Democrat/Globalist Uniparty have been attempting to do to Donald Trump based on the events of 6th January, 2021. Seeing themselves and their previously unchallenged power structure profoundly threatened by the outsider, populist/nationalist, America-First Trump, they, in their desperation, willfully detach themselves from reality, have no regard for truth or fairness, are utterly unbounded by any decent standard of morality, and will say or do anything to protect themselves against this profound threat to their status quo. They are determined to put Trump down and keep him down, whatever it takes.
Accordingly, these fiends hurl at Donald Trump every calumny, every slander, every libel, every ridiculous epithet their corrupt imaginations can conjure up, including the libelous charge of “insurrectionist". Then, through the mainstream media they control, they trumpet the accusations far and wide, expecting their audiences - people they despise - to mindlessly believe every word. Virtually every living soul paying any attention at all has witnessed this media attack on Trump - as if the invective they spew out at him were undisputed fact, God's own truth. To this day, one need only tune-in to any mainstream media news program to hear the "Insurrectionist!" accusation, along with other ludicrous assertions - "Trump is Hitler!" - repeated over and over, ad nauseam. But, as we shall see in a later post, it is the charge of insurrection that is the key to their strategy to bring Trump down.
At the same time they are screaming “Insurrectionist!”, these vipers, these snakes, are meticulously careful to avoid noting that Donald Trump has never been charged with, tried for, or convicted of insurrection relating to the events of January 6th, 2021. Why not? Simply because there is no basis for the charge. Trump admonished his supporters on that day to demonstrate "peacefully", as was their right under the Constitution. Where some few were less than peaceful, Trump had nothing to do with it. Those people acted contrary to clear Trump’s admonition.
Moreover, Trump offered Nancy Pelosi, the mayor of Washington DC, and the Capitol Police 10,000 national guardsmen to help keep the peace on that day. Certainly not what an aspiring insurrectionist seeking to overthrow the government would do. The offer, of course, was refused.
Any thinking person knows that, if there were the slighted basis for bringing the legal charge of insurrection against Trump, his enemies - those who have hurled all manner of ridiculous, frivolous civil and criminal charges against the man - would certainly have brought the charge of insurrection if they thought they had the faintest hope of selling it in court.
Nevertheless, in a colossal insult to the intelligence of the people - people - you and me - they esteem to be no better than dumb animals - Trump's enemies hope, simply by means of repeating of the unfounded "insurrectionist" accusation over and over and over, to convince the people that Donald J. Trump - in his first term one of the most successful presidents in our history - a leader who brought peace - no wars during his term - prosperity - all classes of Americans did better under Trump’s booming economy than ever before - and security to America - secure borders and international adversaries that feared us and toed the line - is in fact a murderous Hitlerian despot who will "destroy our democracy" (we don't have a democracy, we have a democratic Republic) and a worldclass enemy to everything that is good - an evil man who must be stopped no matter what. That is the ludicrous image of Donald J. Trump the hellhounds of the left - the RINO/Democrat/Globalist cabal - and their media lackies are asking us to believe.
Aping the brilliant Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels, who so successfully villainized the Jews, the Trump-haters’ theory in their colossal anti-Trump propaganda campaign is best expressed by Goebbels himself:
“If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it yourself.”
“A lie told once remains a lie, but a lie told a thousand times become the truth.”
Allow me here to repeat again my oft-repeated little maxim that I believe provides a useful key to understanding as we attempt to chart a course through the nearly impenetrable, dark miasmic cloud of deception that swirls around us:
"The credibility of WHAT you argue is directly a function of HOW you argue.
"Find the truth in the methodology of argument. The truth can be argued for in an honest, open manner that does not insult the intelligence of those it seeks to persuade. Deceit cannot be so argued."
(Speaking of “dark miasmic clouds”, in the Book of Mormon, Nephi's famous Tree of Life vision makes mention of a profound "mist of darkness" that rose up to obscure the way to the Tree of Life - but there was a safe way through it.)
On that same theme, let me make reference to my earlier Substack post, which also suggests a systematic way to deal with the left’s unscrupulous use of language:
THE LEFT'S DECEITFUL WAR OF WORDs - The Corruption of Language for Political Purposes
I suppose one measure of one's intellectual, moral and spiritual substance is the ability - or lack of it - to know when one is being insulted. Do you have any sense of the magnitude of the insult these hateful, venomous, anti-Trump, anti-America demons are hoping to perpetrate against your intellect, your morality and your spirituality?
Indeed, if we are so devoid of perception in these critical categories of character as to buy into the monumental, transparent, insulting lies served up by these monsters - a constant torrent of in-your-face prevarication and deliberate deceit that invites us to deny the evidence of our own eyes, the reality of our own experience, and dive head-first into a deceitful, vicious, suicidal, lying fantasy - then we are indeed exactly what they think we are - dumb animals - and deserve no better than what these satanic minions have planned for us.
As I have argued repeatedly before, what is really happening in all this is the acid test of the people's intellectual, moral and spiritual substance. Collectively, what will the people believe, and on what principles? How do they orient themselves to the truth, or do they at all?
Like Belshazzar of old, we are being weighed in the cosmic balance. What will the finger of God write upon our national wall? Like Belshazzar, will we, as a people, be "found wanting" and suffer the same fate he and his kingdom did?
Right vs. wrong, truth vs. lies, reality vs. fantasy, order vs. chaos, law vs. lawlessness, patriotism vs. treason, liberty vs. tyranny, light vs. darkness, good vs. evil, God vs. the Godless…
One way or another, you’ll choose…
If you can be fooled, you will be…
These are the times that try men’s souls…
