Threat to Democracy

We’ve heard it for the last several years; Donald Trump is a threat to democracy; MAGA Republicans are a threat to democracy; voter ID is a threat to democracy; Vladimir Putin is a threat to democracy; not increasing the debt limit is a threat to democracy. Everything is a threat to Democracy, except for the actual threats to our Democracy.

The long-awaited, 316-page Durham report was released earlier this week, and it shows that in 2016 not only did the Clinton campaign work with the FBI to thwart the investigation into the Clinton Foundation illegally taking in hundreds of millions of dollars of campaign contributions from foreign countries, but also colluded together to falsely tie Donald Trump to Russia based on manufactured evidence. FBI also offered to pay Russian spy, Christopher Steele $1 million for anti-Trump evidence, and paid him despite knowing his information was false. In 2016, former FBI director John Brennan briefed President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden that Hilary Clinton was planning to falsely link Trump to Russia, and both Obama and Biden went right along with it and did nothing to stop it.

The FBI released a statement earlier this week, acknowledging that “the conduct in 2016 and 2017” of the FBI did not comport with “the rigor, objectivity, and professionalism the American people deserve,” but then stated, “that current FBI leadership already implemented dozens of corrective actions, which have now been in place for some time.” Yet, three FBI whistleblowers are planning on testifying on Thursday how the FBI abused its power in the January 6th Capitol riot investigations to skew the domestic terrorist numbers in order to justify surveillance on United States citizens. Former FBI Special Agent Steve Friend wrote in an affidavit that “the manipulative casefile practice creates false and misleading crime statistics, constituting false official federal statements… Instead of hundreds of investigations stemming from an isolated incident at the Capitol on January 6, 2021, FBI and DOJ officials point to significant increases in domestic violent extremism and terrorism around the United States.” Essentially, they used the riot at the Capital to falsely claim that there were thousands of separate acts of domestic terrorism by rightwing groups to justify spying on pro-lifers, parents who speak out at school board meetings, conservative Catholics, and so on.

On Monday, an IRS whistleblower who had been investigating Hunter Biden since 2020 testified in front of Congress that, the IRS removed the “entire investigative team” working on the Hunter Biden case at the request of Joe Biden’s Department of Justice. How is a father allowed to remove the investigative team that is investigating his son’s possible crimes? The same thing happened back in 2014 when Joe Biden threatened to withhold $1 billion of aid to Ukraine if they did not fire the prosecutor who was investigating his son Hunter’s corrupt business. Last month, through his attorneys, the whistle blower told congressional leaders that he had information about “preferential treatment” in Hunter Biden’s case and accused Attorney General Merrick Garland of giving false testimony to Congress when he asserted that U.S. Attorney David Weiss has unilateral authority to make charging decisions when in fact, he does not.

All of this has been done by our intelligence agencies for one reason, to influence the results of our elections. The one thing that we must keep in mind when viewing this corruption is that the United States has a $7 trillion budget. $7 trillion! And there are a lot of people who want to have control over how that $7 trillion is spent. Nobody in power wants that money to be spent to help the poor and middle class of America because no one can get rich off of doing that. They want to control that money so they can give it to the military industrial complex or the climate change industrial complex or they can enrich their millionaire and billionaire campaign donors. So, who wins elections is very, very, very, very important. It could be the difference of millions if not billions of dollars to certain powerful people.

So, if our intelligence agencies and the Democrats were willing to do all of this to overturn the 2016 election, they would easily have rigged the 2020 election to prevent Donald Trump from being President, again. In October of 2020, 51 current and former intelligent agents, some of whom were former heads of their agencies, all lied to the American people stating that the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation. Also, during the 2020 Presidential campaign, intelligence agencies and Democrat politicians were colluding with social media companies to censor the speech of Republican candidates and Republican voters. These are the actual threats to our democracy. These are things that Third World dictators do to rig elections. So, the people who for years have been warning us about the threats to democracy are themselves the threats to democracy. They do not care about our democracy. They only care about procuring as much power as they can, and in doing so, if they have to tear down our democracy, they will do it.

All of this is instinctively what the people who went to protest at the Capitol on January 6 knew. They knew that something was wrong. They knew the stories that were being told to them by the media and the Democrat politicians, we’re all lies. They knew that a house plant could not garner 81,000,000 votes. I’m not advocating for the violence that we saw in January 6 in any way, shape or form, I am merely acknowledging that the tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of people who showed up to the Capital that day, knew the system was corrupt. They knew the system was rigged.

I laugh when Republicans get into the debate of Trump vs. DeSantis because regardless of who the Republicans put up as our nominee, neither of them has a chance at beating Joe Biden. Not because Biden is a superior candidate, he’s clearly not. And not because the American people are pleased with where America is under Biden’s watch. The Democrats have mastered the ability to cheat in elections. So, whoever the Republican puts up, no matter how many votes that candidate gets, Joe Biden will get just enough votes to win the election, just like he did in 2020. If Ron DeSantis got 80 million votes, Joe Biden would miraculously get 90 million votes and win all the battleground states by 5,000 to 10,000 votes, even though his poll numbers are underwater. That’s it. The Democrats know how to do two things; cheat in elections and shout down anybody who questions to legitimacy of the election they just cheated in to win. That’s it. They will win every Presidential election as far as the eye can see. Not even close. They could run an eggplant, and he will still get 85 million votes.

How was it legal for Mark Zuckerberg to give $400 million to the running of the elections in battleground states in 2020? It was clear he wanted Biden to win because Donald Trump had stated that he planned to repeal Section 230 which gave protection to social media companies. That would prove to potentially cost Facebook, billions of dollars. So, spending $400 million to ensure that Trump did not win makes economic sense to Zuckerberg. What would happen if Donald Trump donated $400 million to run the elections in the battleground states? It would immediately be red flagged as massive voter fraud. Why is that any different from Mark Zuckerberg, a far left partisan, who has a vested interest in Joe Biden and the Democrats winning elections when he donates $400 million to run the elections? How is that any different?

But we allowed it to happen, and everybody thinks that’s just fine and dandy. It should be illegal. It is purchasing an election. If we found out one of the richest citizens in a Third World country paid $400 million to run the elections, we would all unanimously say that’s cheating, especially if the results ended up in that person’s favor like it did with Zuckerberg. Zuckerberg did not donate $400 million to run the elections just because he wanted “fair elections”. He donated $400 million to our elections because he wanted a rigged election to produce the results that best benefitted him. And nobody batted an eye. Nobody in the main stream media ask one question about it.

So, we’re sitting here wondering who will be the better candidate, Trump or DeSantis? Are we kidding ourselves? If Trump wins the primary, he’s going to lose by 10 million votes. If DeSantis wins the primary, he’s going to lose by 10 million votes. And everybody within the Republican party will be backbiting, saying if we ran the other guy, he would’ve won. No. We are not going to win this election. There’s going to be massive voter fraud, again. Joe Biden supposedly got 81,000,000 votes, making him the most popular President in the history of the United States, but he quickly he had one of the lowest first year approval ratings in the history of the United States. That dog doesn’t hunt. It makes no sense. The math does not work out.

Just watch this election. Biden, who has completely destroyed our country and has one of the lowest approval ratings in our history, will get at least 80 million votes. If the elections were going to be fair and legitimate, the Democrat party already would have forced Joe Biden to step aside, so they could put up a more legitimate candidate. But they are not doing that because they know whoever they put up, is going to win, because they have rigged the system. So, the power brokers in the Democrat party leave Joe in place because they know that they can control Joe.

We saw them rigging the 2020 election right in front of our eyes, and there was nothing we could do about it. The United States Constitution clearly says that the only body that can change state election laws are the state legislatures (Article I, Section 4, Clause 1). That’s it. But in 2020, in many of the battleground states, the governor or the courts changed election laws. And it was primarily Democrat governors and left-wing courts that did it. And magically in every one of those states, Joe Biden won, and the Democrats won big. We are all living in a fantasy land, if we believe that our elections are fair. But very few people say anything because they are afraid to be called conspiracy theorists. As we have seen since Covid, most of the people who were mocked as conspiracy theorists, have been proven, correct. And most of the people who blindly nodded along like bobbleheads to the government approved narrative were proven to be idiots.

All those changes to the election laws, allowed for massive fraud to be committed. Call up any financial institution in America and tell them that you want to invest a $1 million through their company, and then tell them you do not want to meet in person, you want to do every transaction through the mail, in fact, you don’t even want to use do US mail, you want to use drop boxes. And then tell them that you’re not going to sign anything, and you will not show them a photo ID. The person you talked to would hang up the phone and immediately call the SEC or the FBI and report you for suspicion of money laundering. Those are the tell-tale signs that you want to launder money, that you want to commit fraud, yet we implemented each one of those into our election system and we all are expected to pretend that we have legitimate elections.

Remember, $7 trillion is at stake. Most of the people vying to control that money would stab their own mothers in the back to get that power, so the integrity of our election system is meaningless to them. What do you think Joe Biden is doing right now by opening the southern border? He is stuffing the ballot boxes for Democrats in elections that are going to occur 10 to 20 years from now. The only reason why Joe Biden wants millions and millions of illegal immigrants to come into this country is because he knows that over 70% of these people when given the chance to vote will vote for Democrats and their socialist policies. And the illegal immigrants, many of whom are fleeing the devastating consequences of socialism, will help usher socialism into the United States which will turn this country into the hellhole they just fled from.
