October Surprise: This Race Is Over

October Surprise : This Race Is Over We now know — thanks to October — who will win on November 3 .
The reason we know is found in early voting data .
October voting is no longer the exclusive domain of the Democratic Party .
Both parties vote early and in ever-increasing numbers .
Which makes the October vote an early “ action report ” on the election outcome that ’ s more reality based than the polls or the mainstream media .
Who you vote for is a secret .
When , where , and how many voters @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s data .
In this case , data in its most meaningful form : the number of early votes by registered Democrats and the number of early votes by registered Republicans .
Convincing the other party ’ s voters to vote for your candidate is a long shot .
Getting your voters to turn out for your candidate is how elections are won .
It ’ s called GOTV , for Get Out The Vote .
GOTV plus voter enthusiasm invariably equals winning results at the polls .
In the final weeks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump , demonstrated at multiple daily rallies , has been far beyond what it was four years ago .
Will enthusiasm help produce another winning voter turnout for Trump ?
To understand why history will likely repeat itself , it ’ s important to look at voter turnout in party strongholds , districts where support is expected to be high .
The highest Democratic voting percentages are often in districts with large majorities of African-American voters .
The black vote is a key component in the strategy of every Democratic election campaign , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , black turnout provides the best way to measure enthusiasm for the Democratic Party ’ s candidate and ultimately to project a winner .
Take North Carolina .
In 2012 , black voter turnout for Barack Obama was understandably high .
Black voters made up 27 percent of North Carolina ’ s total number of voters that year .
In 2016 , Hillary Clinton ’ s turnout among blacks in the Tar Heel state dropped to 22 percent .
This year , with Biden running , North Carolina ’ s black turnout for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there ’ s this : the black vote that is coming out is not all coming out for the Democrat .
A poll by the University of New Orleans of likely Louisiana voters reported that 28 percent of blacks preferred Donald Trump .
That ’ s driven largely by black men , among whom Trump ’ s 43 percent edges Biden ’ s 42 percent .
A Rasmussen national survey , reflecting the same trend , shows Trump ’ s approval among likely black voters at 46 percent .
Approval does not translate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ too much action — in the form of early turnout — behind that number to dismiss it .
In 2016 , Trump asked African-Americans what they had to lose by backing him instead of his Hillary Clinton .
Apparently , now they know .
Under Trump , blacks saw record employment , the creation of economic opportunity zones , increased funding for black colleges , and the lowest incarceration rate for blacks since 1995 .
If the most reliable Democratic voting bloc loses its enthusiasm for Biden , his chances in the South @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that looks .
Sunshine State Republicans outperformed expectations in early voting .
Democrats are ahead in mail-in ballots , but not by the numbers needed to beat the GOP on Election Day when Republicans traditionally come out to vote in droves .
Rasmussen ’ s Daily tracking poll found that by the end of October over 31 percent of black Florida voters said they would vote for Trump .
Trump broke through the Democrat ’ s Blue Wall defense in 2016 , and now he looks like a serious threat to their Black @ @ @ @ @ @ @ going to lose the black vote .
He ’ s just going to lose it by less .
The question , again , is how many early-voting Democrats actually voted Democratic .
Trump won with backing from Democrats in 2016 .
Why would they abandon him now ?
Donald Trump has “ overwhelming support among Republicans , ” says Pew Reports .
Biden ’ s support from fellow Democrats stems largely from their dislike of Trump more than an affinity for Joe .
And Biden can ’ t attract a crowd much larger @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s certainly not true of Trump .
In fact , there ’ s no better source of actionable data than a Trump rally , because everyone who wants to attend has to provide contact information to get a free ticket .
The campaign then uses this data to turn every event into a force-multiplier .
First , each rally reaches millions of voters live at the venue , on cable TV , and on YouTube .
Then millions more engage on Facebook and Twitter .
After the rally , a campaign team @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that recipients can retarget to their contacts as look-alike campaigns on social media .
The party also mines the same data for useful insights and information it can convert into turnout .
Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel noted that 45 percent of the attendees at an October New Hampshire rally were not registered Republicans and 20 percent did not vote in 2016. Who would wait in line for hours to see a Trump rally in October and then not vote for Trump in November ?
It ’ s easy to predict there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year in more states than just New Hampshire .
In modern times very few vice-presidents or serial losers in primaries succeed in winning the White House .
Joe Biden has both of those things going against him .
And that ’ s before factoring in China/Burismagate allegations directed at him and his family , Barack Obama ’ s low-impact performance on the campaign trail and the anti-police riots in Philadelphia , all of which will help Trump .
Finally , there ’ s the matter of polling .
Most polls are commissioned by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump .
Why should anyone believe them now making basically the same anti-Trump predictions that were completely wrong in 2016 ?
One polling company , though , stands out .
The Trafalgar Group accurately predicted Trump would win Michigan and Pennsylvania in 2016 .
Now Trafalgar forecasts Trump will take Florida , Michigan , and Arizona .
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer could be more disappointed than Joe Biden on election night .
Trafalgar has African-American GOP Senate candidate John James slightly ahead in Michigan .
Trump may drag Sen. Martha McSally over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Alabama will return its Senate seat to the GOP .
It ’ s also hard to see how a cresting wave of Trump enthusiasm won ’ t create a GOTV result that keeps Colorado Republican Sen. Cory Gardner in his job .
The bottom line is simple math .
When you add the electoral votes from reliably red states to any breach in the Blue Wall , Trump wins again , possibly even bigger than he did last time .
That may not be the October surprise you expected , but then that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ surprise .

October Surprise: This Race Is Over
By: Jerry Cave and Bill Thomas
We now know — thanks to October — who will win on November 3. The reason we know is found in early voting data.
October voting is no longer the exclusive domain of the Democratic Party. Both parties vote early and in ever-increasing numbers. Which makes the October vote an early “action report” on the election outcome that’s more reality based than the polls or the mainstream media.
Who you vote for is a secret. When, where, and how many voters cast their ballots is not. It’s data. In this case, data in its most meaningful form: the number of early votes by registered Democrats and the number of early votes by registered Republicans.
Convincing the other party’s voters to vote for your candidate is a long shot. Getting your voters to turn out for your candidate is how elections are won. It’s called GOTV, for Get Out The Vote.
GOTV plus voter enthusiasm invariably equals winning results at the polls.
In the final weeks of the campaign, enthusiasm for Donald Trump, demonstrated at multiple daily rallies, has been far beyond what it was four years ago. Will enthusiasm help produce another winning voter turnout for Trump?
Spoiler alert: Data generated by early voting says “yes.”
To understand why history will likely repeat itself, it’s important to look at voter turnout in party strongholds, districts where support is expected to be high. The highest Democratic voting percentages are often in districts with large majorities of African-American voters. The black vote is a key component in the strategy of every Democratic election campaign, especially Joe Biden’s. Accordingly, black turnout provides the best way to measure enthusiasm for the Democratic Party’s candidate and ultimately to project a winner.
Take North Carolina. In 2012, black voter turnout for Barack Obama was understandably high. Black voters made up 27 percent of North Carolina’s total number of voters that year. In 2016, Hillary Clinton’s turnout among blacks in the Tar Heel state dropped to 22 percent. This year, with Biden running, North Carolina’s black turnout for early voting is 19.5 percent.
Then there’s this: the black vote that is coming out is not all coming out for the Democrat.
A poll by the University of New Orleans of likely Louisiana voters reported that 28 percent of blacks preferred Donald Trump. That’s driven largely by black men, among whom Trump’s 43 percent edges Biden’s 42 percent.
A Rasmussen national survey, reflecting the same trend, shows Trump’s approval among likely black voters at 46 percent. Approval does not translate directly into votes, but there is too much action — in the form of early turnout — behind that number to dismiss it.
In 2016, Trump asked African-Americans what they had to lose by backing him instead of his Hillary Clinton. Apparently, now they know. Under Trump, blacks saw record employment, the creation of economic opportunity zones, increased funding for black colleges, and the lowest incarceration rate for blacks since 1995.
If the most reliable Democratic voting bloc loses its enthusiasm for Biden, his chances in the South and elsewhere disappear.
Florida shows how that looks. Sunshine State Republicans outperformed expectations in early voting. Democrats are ahead in mail-in ballots, but not by the numbers needed to beat the GOP on Election Day when Republicans traditionally come out to vote in droves.
Rasmussen’s Daily tracking poll found that by the end of October over 31 percent of black Florida voters said they would vote for Trump.
Trump broke through the Democrat’s Blue Wall defense in 2016, and now he looks like a serious threat to their Black Wall in 2020. Trump is still going to lose the black vote. He’s just going to lose it by less.
The question, again, is how many early-voting Democrats actually voted Democratic. Trump won with backing from Democrats in 2016. Why would they abandon him now?
Donald Trump has “overwhelming support among Republicans,” says Pew Reports. Biden’s support from fellow Democrats stems largely from their dislike of Trump more than an affinity for Joe. And Biden can’t attract a crowd much larger than his Secret Service detail. That’s certainly not true of Trump.
In fact, there’s no better source of actionable data than a Trump rally, because everyone who wants to attend has to provide contact information to get a free ticket. The campaign then uses this data to turn every event into a force-multiplier. First, each rally reaches millions of voters live at the venue, on cable TV, and on YouTube. Then millions more engage on Facebook and Twitter.
After the rally, a campaign team targets those who attended with digital ads that recipients can retarget to their contacts as look-alike campaigns on social media.
The party also mines the same data for useful insights and information it can convert into turnout. Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel noted that 45 percent of the attendees at an October New Hampshire rally were not registered Republicans and 20 percent did not vote in 2016.
Who would wait in line for hours to see a Trump rally in October and then not vote for Trump in November? It’s easy to predict there will be many new Trump voters this year in more states than just New Hampshire.
In modern times very few vice-presidents or serial losers in primaries succeed in winning the White House. Joe Biden has both of those things going against him. And that’s before factoring in China/Burismagate allegations directed at him and his family, Barack Obama’s low-impact performance on the campaign trail and the anti-police riots in Philadelphia, all of which will help Trump.
Finally, there’s the matter of polling. Most polls are commissioned by media organizations that are openly hostile to Trump. Why should anyone believe them now making basically the same anti-Trump predictions that were completely wrong in 2016?
One polling company, though, stands out. The Trafalgar Group accurately predicted Trump would win Michigan and Pennsylvania in 2016. Now Trafalgar forecasts Trump will take Florida, Michigan, and Arizona.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer could be more disappointed than Joe Biden on election night. Trafalgar has African-American GOP Senate candidate John James slightly ahead in Michigan. Trump may drag Sen. Martha McSally over the finish line in Arizona, and Alabama will return its Senate seat to the GOP.
It’s also hard to see how a cresting wave of Trump enthusiasm won’t create a GOTV result that keeps Colorado Republican Sen. Cory Gardner in his job.
The bottom line is simple math. When you add the electoral votes from reliably red states to any breach in the Blue Wall, Trump wins again, possibly even bigger than he did last time.
That may not be the October surprise you expected, but then that’s why they call it… a surprise.

So Much for the “Strawman” of Lockdowns

So Much for the “ Strawman ” of Lockdowns The Great Barrington Declaration website went live on October 5 , 2020 .
Over the next four weeks it amassed signatures from over 10,000 health scientists , 30,000 medical practitioners , and 600,000 members of the general public – all calling for an end to lockdowns as the primary tool for mitigating Covid-19 .
Lockdowns have imposed immense social and economic harms over the last eight months .

So Much for the “Strawman” of Lockdowns
By: Phillip W. Magness
The Great Barrington Declaration website went live on October 5, 2020. Over the next four weeks it amassed signatures from over 10,000 health scientists, 30,000 medical practitioners, and 600,000 members of the general public – all calling for an end to lockdowns as the primary tool for mitigating Covid-19. Lockdowns have imposed immense social and economic harms over the last eight months. Meanwhile, surprisingly little evidence exists to support the effectiveness of the lockdown approach.
The response from previous defenders of such policies, both in epidemiology and journalism, sought to both vilify the signers of the Declaration and deny that lockdowns are even on the table as a future policy option.
Gregg Gonsalves, an epidemiologist at Yale University, answered the Declaration on October 5th: “First, let’s knock down the straw man up front. No one is supporting massive, across-the-board lockdowns everywhere, all the time. This is the foil for these arguments. And it’s a convenient bogeyman.”
William Hanage, an epidemiologist at Harvard University, reacted to the Great Barrington Declaration on October 6th: “This is a dangerous falsehood. This is a very narrow sample of ‘top scientists’ and certainly not representative of the world. And lockdown is not the alternative.”
Matt Reynolds, a science reporter for Wired UK, wrote on October 7th: “The kind of lockdown that the Great Barrington Declaration seems to be railing against hasn’t been in place in the UK since mid-June.” He continued, “When the Great Barrington Declaration authors declare their opposition to lockdowns, they are quite literally arguing with the past.”

No one is. But a straw man argument is being set up by those who want to mislead the American and British publics.”
David Gorski, an oncologist and editor of the Science-Based Medicine blog, wrote on October 12th: “Straw man arguments [against lockdowns] are the entire basis for #GreatBarringtonDeclaration”
Angela Rasmussen, a virologist at Columbia University, wrote on October 14th in response to the Great Barrington Declaration: “Nobody is arguing for full indefinite lockdowns.”
Tyler Cowen, an economist at George Mason University and columnist for Bloomberg, reacted to the Great Barrington Declaration on October 15th: “The critics who emphasize lockdowns are setting up a straw man.”
John M. Barry, a medical historian at Tulane University, wrote in the New York Times on October 19th: “Finally, the Great Barrington Declaration aims at a straw man, opposing the kind of large, general lockdown that began in March. No one is proposing that now.”
Hisham Ziauddeen, a neuroscientist and signer of the John Snow Memorandum to the Lancet, wrote on October 26: “Those arguing for a herd immunity strategy and railing against the lockdown strawman they have created (see the Great Barrington declaration).”
The same day Ziauddeen co-authored an article with Deepti Gurdasani, an epidemiologist and Snow Memorandum signer, declaring that the Great Barrington Declaration was arguing against “a strawman that the science is not only not advocating for, but very keen to avoid.”
As of this writing, new national lockdowns have been imposed or announced for the following countries:
Ireland (10/21)
Czech Republic (10/22)
Wales (10/23)
France (10/30)
Germany (11/2)
Belgium (11/2)
Greece (11/3)
United Kingdom (remainder of country, 11/5)
Similar returns to lockdown are being actively discussed at the national level across Europe, and on a regional basis in the United States.
The much-derided “straw man” of renewed lockdowns, it would appear, has already sprung to life.

The Democrats have their wish in a mental wreck named Joe Biden
Before his brain aneurysm and pulmonary thrombosis, in 1988, Biden was a highly intelligent political operator.
Jon Rappoport
People joke about Joe Biden’s mental state and his ridiculous gaffes, but it isn’t funny when he could become the next president of the United States.
Democrats have been saying they would vote for anyone except Trump. Well, they have their anyone now.
Biden says he’s running against George Bush. At one point he seems to be saying he’s running for the senate. Then he utters a mouthful of indecipherable mush.
It says something about the Democrat Party—they are running a disabled old man with severe mental and motor deficits for the highest office in the land.
Before his brain aneurysm and pulmonary thrombosis, in 1988, Biden was a highly intelligent political operator. His brand of globalism was similar to Bill Clinton’s, but without Clinton’s self-confident flair and big bullshit front. Since 1988, Biden has gradually deteriorated. In his present state, he should be out of politics altogether.
The Left press continues to treat Biden as if he’s a genuine candidate, when they know he isn’t. They know he is disabled. They know he’s a shell of his former self. They know he has to be under constant medical care, just to stay upright.
I’ve already written extensively about Biden’s disastrous policies (here and here), which come straight from his handlers. Here I’m talking about something far more basic: the man is mentally incompetent.
A political party that would run this man for the presidency is itself in a severe state of degradation.
I’ve seen surrealism in American politics since Harry Truman sat in the Oval Office. But I’ve never seen anything as surreal as this.
Remember the psychiatrists who were taking diagnostic shots at Trump and calling him mentally ill? Where are they now? These frauds have nothing to say about Biden.
As I write this, the hoax-piled-on-hoax COVID case numbers in America stand at just over NINE MILLION. The people pulling Biden’s strings, and the strings of his replacement in the Oval Office, Kamala Harris, plan to use those numbers to lock down America again.
And they’re planning this on the back of sick and incompetent old man they’ve shoved into the spotlight to take the presidency of the United States.

Professors Demand Transparency in COVID-19 Vaccine Trials + More
By: Children’s Health Defense Team (The Defender)
Professors Demand Transparency in COVID-19 Vaccine Trials. Yale Daily News reported:
“Five Yale law, medicine and public health professors, along with a national team of scientists, signed an open letter last week addressed to U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar LAW ’91 calling for greater transparency in COVID-19 vaccine clinical trials.”
Black Americans Are the Most Hesitant to Get a COVID Vaccine. USA Today reported:
“Black Americans distrust the government so much they’re not participating in large numbers in COVID-19 clinical trials, and many say they won’t get a COVID-19 vaccine — at least not until many others get it.”
States Say They Lack Federal Funds to Distribute Coronavirus Vaccine as CDC Tells Them to Be Ready by Nov. 15. The Washington Post reported:
“State health officials are expressing frustration about a lack of federal financial support as they face orders to prepare to receive and distribute the first doses of a coronavirus vaccine by Nov. 15, even though one is not likely to be approved until later this year. The officials say they don’t have enough money to pay for the enormous and complicated undertaking.”
Already, Pharmaceutical Companies’ Predictions About COVID-19 Vaccines Haven’t Come True. CNN reported:
“Dr. Paul Offit, a member of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration vaccine advisory committee, said pharmaceutical companies would be wise to stop making forecasts about their timelines.” “‘Companies should stop making predictions, because nature is very humbling,’ Offit said.”
No-fault Compensation for Vaccine Injury — the Other Side of Equitable Access to COVID-19 Vaccines. The New England Journal of Medicine reported:
“Wealthy governments that have invested in vaccine candidates have made bilateral agreements with developers that could result in vaccine doses being reserved for the highest-income countries — a phenomenon known as ‘vaccine nationalism’ — potentially leaving people in poor countries vulnerable to COVID-19.”
COVID-19 Vaccine Won’t Be Available Until January, Fauci Says. Bloomberg reported:
“President Donald Trump, pharmaceutical industry leaders and some public-health officials had said previously that an immunization to prevent COVID-19 could be available before the Nov. 3 election. That date has been consistently pushed back, however, as clinical studies — which are running at unprecedented speed — started to hit a few hurdles.”
Federal Government Says it Will Pay for Any Future Coronavirus Vaccine for All Americans. CNN reported:
“The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services said it will pay for any COVID-19 vaccine that is authorized or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to allow for “broad vaccine access and coverage for all Americans.” “The agency also announced it will help cover a larger portion of the cost of new COVID-19 treatments that may be coming down the pipeline for Medicare recipients.”
Meet the Youngest Participants in COVID-19 Vaccine Trials: Teens and Tweens. NBC reported:
“Earlier this month, Pfizer became the first pharmaceutical company in the United States to receive approval from the Food and Drug Administration to test its vaccine on children as young as 12.”

The document included a 13th amendment that does not appear on any one of our modern ones .
It was studied by the finest historical minds in this country , and determined that the language of this missing part prohibited lawyers from serving in government .
What !

How can this happen ?
Since that time , Dodge and Dunn have uncovered many more authentic Constitutions buried in other obscure archives , in as many as ten other states , so far .

If this is true , lawyers were restricted from serving in government was ratified in 1819 , and removed from the Constitution without due process during the Civil War .
It is still a law today !
What @ @ @ @ @ @ @ without a free press to bring it to the people , it will remain hidden .
The “ missing ” thirteenth amendment reads as follows : “ If any citizen of the United States shall accept , claim , receive , or retain any title of nobility or honor , or shall without the consent of Congress accept and retain any present , pension , office , or emolument of any kind whatever , from an emperor , king , prince , or foreign power , such person shall cease to be a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shall be incapable of holding any office of trust or profit under them , or ether of them.

KEN’S CORNER: Emoluments & Attorney Theft of the 13th Amendment
Commentary by: TLB Contributing Writer: Ken LaRive
It was a cold winter in ’83, especially in Main. Two men, David Dodge and Tom Dunn, sorted through the dusty archival records in the Belfast Library. They were there on a mission: To find evidence of Government corruption. Down the long rows of books and boxes, yellow with age, they found something so controversial that it is still being talked about today.
They found the library’s oldest authentic copy of the United States Constitution, printed in 1825. Carefully on a large library table they paged through it. What they found began a seven year search for the truth, and rocked Capital Hill to its knees. Have you heard about it? I didn’t think so. Let me fill you in.
The document included a 13th amendment that does not appear on any one of our modern ones. It was studied by the finest historical minds in this country, and determined that the language of this missing part prohibited lawyers from serving in government. What! But it is true, a removal of a ratified Amendment for our own constitution of the United States? How can this happen?
Since that time, Dodge and Dunn have uncovered many more authentic Constitutions buried in other obscure archives, in as many as ten other states, so far. Indeed, this Amendment was legally ratified by the State of Virginia and is authentic. If this is true, lawyers were restricted from serving in government was ratified in 1819, and removed from the Constitution without due process during the Civil War.
It is still a law today! What are the implications? Enormous. But without a free press to bring it to the people, it will remain hidden.
The “missing” thirteenth amendment reads as follows:
“If any citizen of the United States shall accept, claim, receive, or retain any title of nobility or honor, or shall without the consent of Congress accept and retain any present, pension, office, or emolument of any kind whatever, from an emperor, king, prince, or foreign power, such person shall cease to be a citizen of the United States, and shall be incapable of holding any office of trust or profit under them, or ether of them.”

From the Author, Ken La Rive – We in the Liberty movement have been fighting to take back this country for less than a decade, peacefully and with the love of God and country in our hearts. Our banner has been trampled on and displaced by a multitude of distractions, further eroding our nation and the cause for Liberty. And so, as we are pulled by forces we cannot fathom, powerful entities with unlimited resources stolen from our future, unaccountable trillions printed out of thin air and put on our backs as debt, we must formulate the most pitiful of all questions any patriot might ask in the final hour: Are we going to fight for our master’s tyranny, or are we going to demand the return of our civil liberties and Constitution? Are we going to choose The Banner of Liberty, or the shackles of voluntary servitude? Will it be a war for corporate profit, or a war to regain our ability to self govern, as the blood and toil of our forefathers presented to us, their children, as a gift? I fear that decision is emanate. I fear that any decision will be a hard one, but my greatest fear of all is that the decision has already been made for us.

The Autocratic Future Of The United States ?
Posted by Tyler Durden | Written by Guy Millière via The Gatestone Institute There seems to have been an attempt for the last four years to instill among the population a hatred of America and of the president , to present them both as a criminal and to try to overthrow them .
In any event , it is the first time in American history that there has been an attempted coup d ’ état against a duly elected president .
If institutions of democracy — the state , the judiciary , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ suppress verifiable information instead of informing the public about it — as has just taken place for more than two weeks regarding alleged financial corruption and the possible resultant compromise — by China , Russia , and Ukraine among other countries — of an allegedly financially compromised family as possible a national security threat — these institutions of democracy instead become vehicles to sabotage a democracy .
A danger to American democracy in the past years — with threats to undo the Constitution by , for example , abolishing the electoral college , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ eliminating free speech — has therefore become imminent .
In 2026 , the FBI , under the leadership at the time of James Comey , used a fraudulent document bought and paid for by the 2016 Hillary Clinton presidential campaign to launch a two year “ investigation ” in search of a crime against the president .
Special Counsel Robert Mueller , at the time of his appointment , on May 17 , 2017 , knew , or should have known — along with the leadership of the CIA , the FBI , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dubious , possibly even criminal , actions — that the document on which is investigation was based , the Steele dossier , was fraudulent .
Now we have the later round .
After a political experiment in California successfully used late , fraudulent voting to turn Orange County from red to blue , the effort , with the complicity of the Supreme Court , seems to have expanded .

The Autocratic Future Of The United States?
Posted by Tyler Durden | Written by Guy Millière via The Gatestone Institute
There seems to have been an attempt for the last four years to instill among the population a hatred of America and of the president, to present them both as a criminal and to try to overthrow them.
In any event, it is the first time in American history that there has been an attempted coup d’état against a duly elected president.
If institutions of democracy — the state, the judiciary, opposition parties and the free press — suppress verifiable information instead of informing the public about it — as has just taken place for more than two weeks regarding alleged financial corruption and the possible resultant compromise — by China, Russia, and Ukraine among other countries — of an allegedly financially compromised family as possible a national security threat — these institutions of democracy instead become vehicles to sabotage a democracy.
A danger to American democracy in the past years — with threats to undo the Constitution by, for example, abolishing the electoral college, banning guns and, in 2014, eliminating free speech — has therefore become imminent.
In 2026, the FBI, under the leadership at the time of James Comey, used a fraudulent document bought and paid for by the 2016 Hillary Clinton presidential campaign to launch a two year “investigation” in search of a crime against the president. Special Counsel Robert Mueller, at the time of his appointment, on May 17, 2017, knew, or should have known — along with the leadership of the CIA, the FBI, and other key agencies, in extremely dubious, possibly even criminal, actions — that the document on which is investigation was based, the Steele dossier, was fraudulent.
Now we have the later round. After a political experiment in California successfully used late, fraudulent voting to turn Orange County from red to blue, the effort, with the complicity of the Supreme Court, seems to have expanded. There were worries that mail-in voting might rig the election, and if the military might be needed to remove a reluctant incumbent from office. No one, of course, asked what the opposition would do if it lost the election and refused to leave. The only recommendation so far seems to have been threatening more riots.
In a recent article, Abe Greenwald, executive editor of Commentary magazine, described what is happening as “a revolution against the United States of America and all it stands for”.
Roger Kimball has described in his book The Long March how, from the 1960s onwards, members of the radical left gradually took control of the universities, the educational system, culture, media. The takeover of their preferred party followed. The method pursued was defined by the Italian communist Antonio Gramsci, who advocated the infiltration of the existing civil society to destroy it from within and lead it to collapse. The tactics were set out in Saul Alinsky’s 1971 book, Rules for Radicals.
Former US President Barack Obama, a disciple of Saul Alinsky, said, before being elected in 2008, that his followers were “five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America”. He did not say into what. Hillary Clinton, another disciple of Alinsky, was expected to win and continue what Obama had started. To these self-appointed elites, whoever seems to have taken their lace seemed to become the enemy –the obstacle that had prevented them from taking what they appear to hope will be irreversible control of the United States.
There has been talk about killing the filibuster, to pass just about anything with a simple majority, and talk about enlarging the Senate by adding more states, presumably to enable one side to hold a permanent majority. Also on the agenda has been adding more members to the Supreme Court to turn it into a branch of legislative government, eliminating America’s historic system of checks and balances. There are also plans to raise taxes on everyone (remember, “You can keep your healthcare“?), abolish fossil fuels and fracking, and establish a Marxist-socialist economy of redistribution to replace a free economy.
These ideas appear to have the support of hundreds of professors, mainstream journalists, and members of the so called “cultural elites“, as well as the leading social networking services, such as Twitter and Facebook, that are practicing with impunity suppression of factual information and censorship of anything that might run counter to their preferred policies, especially if it threatens to reveal national security concerns about issues they would rather keep from public view.
Many if these ideas also have the support of international financiers and entrepreneurs, who are seeking above all, to keep hiring cheap labor, and to gain easy entry into China’s vast market share of 1.5 billion consumers. The long-term threat of China, outspokenly determined to unseat America and control the world, seems less of a threat than a slightly-less-spectacular quarterly report for their shareholders.
Communist China is ruled by leaders who have been stealing information for decades and using a kind of state capitalism to enrich themselves and those close to them, meanwhile ruling over millions of “serfs” who are increasingly deprived of information and freedom.
If the American people do not fight to defend their institutions and democracy, the United States could soon be ruled by an “expert” class, tech oligarchs, and other autocrats, and, although what will happen if the US government changes hands remains to be seen, many Americans could be forced to follow the usual autocratic road to serfdom.
Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Claremont Institute Thomas Klingenstein noted that “We are in a fight for our lives”.

In addition to the economy, they cited Trump’s appointment of originalist Supreme Court justices and the issue of trade as some of the reasons for their support of Trump’s reelection bid.
“He has moved the debate, in both parties, from free trade, totally unfettered, to managed, or fair, trade,” they wrote. “He has put America first, just as he said he would.”
The endorsement included criticism of the Democratic ticket, which it said would supply “higher taxes and a nanny state” and “softness on China”, which Mr. Trump understands is our enemy.”

“Mr. Biden is too old for the job, and fragile,” the board wrote. “There is a very real chance he will not make it through the term. Mr. Trump is also too old but seemingly robust. But in Mike Pence, Mr. Trump has a vice president ready to take over, if need be. He is a safe pair of hands. Sen. Kamala Harris gives no evidence of being ready to be president.”

Barricades in Madrid, clashes in Barcelona, looting in Logrono as anti-lockdown protests grip Spain (VIDEOS)
Spain has been gripped by violence as anti-lockdown protesters clash with police in multiple cities, including Madrid and Barcelona, over the state and regional governments’ move to toughen Covid-19 restrictions.
Protesters torched garbage containers and erected makeshift barricades on Gran Via, and reportedly smashed several store fronts elsewhere in central Madrid on Saturday night. When police moved in to clear the unruly gathering, they were pelted with stones and flares, and reportedly fired blank bullets, forcing the protesters to disperse into nearby streets. Meanwhile in Barcelona, police officers were pelted with stones and other projectiles, as they tried to disperse a smaller-scale anti-lockdown protest for the second consecutive night. The regional government of Catalonia approved a new package of measures this week, including the perimeter confinement of each municipality, limiting people to their own district on weekends. Clashes also took place in the Spanish city of Logrono, where protesters burned trash containers, smashed windows and looted several shops. Heated protests were also reported in Granada, Malaga and Bilbao. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez urged Spaniards in a Saturday night tweet to show patience and demonstrate “responsibility, unity and sacrifice” to defeat the global pandemic, while condemning the “violent and irrational behavior” by a “small minority” of the population. Spain’s parliament approved a six-month extension of the national state of emergency last week, granting regional authorities more power to tackle the country’s second wave of Covid-19. This is Spain’s third extension to the state of emergency during the pandemic and will be in force until May 9, but with an option for it to be lifted on March 9. Under this new extension, regional governments have the power to control freedom of movement and curfew times without having to go through complicated fortnightly procedures in parliament. Since then, many regions have toughened their coronavirus measures, with nighttime curfews, lockdowns and travel restrictions. ************ Source Published to The Liberty Beacon from EuropeReloaded.com
