January 6th, One Year Hence
Democrats just can't help themselves, so the Maoist struggle sessions will continue until morale improves.
As the Biden administration, the media and the House J6 Committee gear up to “commemorating” the events of January 6, 2021, it occurs to me they are the personification of what John Adams meant when he wrote:
“…while it is rioting in rapine and insolence, this country will be the most miserable habitation in the world; because we have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge, or gallantry would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
There is more than a heaping helping of avarice, ambition, revenge, and gallantry to tar the members of this committee along with enough left over to spread over a doddering old president, his regime and their media allies.
The members of this committee, including the two “Republican” members, were selected for their hatred of Donald Trump more than for their interest in the “truth”. The objective of this “investigation” is the same as the two-year baseless Russia “collusion” investigation and two politically motivated impeachments, that being to prevent Donald Trump from holding office – ever.
The primary driver behind these initiatives is a massive case of butt hurt. Trump was not supposed to win in 2016. He was not supposed to do what he said he would do after he did win. He as not supposed to remind America who they are and can be and he was certainly not supposed to beat the Democrats like a rented mule.
But as president, Trump did all those things.
And for that, they hate him with the heat of a thousand suns.
As to J6, while it paled in comparison to the preceding year of riots, looting, arson, and civil unrest of the ANTIFA and BLM protests, it did do three things those incidents didn’t: first it embarrassed the hell out of the Democrats in Congress. Secondly, it revealed how weak they are and scared them more than a stop payment order on a George Soros campaign donation and lastly, it made them angry, as angry as a kid caught stealing from the cookie jar.
And their reaction to those three was completely predictable.
Being completely incapable of self-reflection, the Democrats began to recruit the media, the bureaucracy and Trump hating Republicans in their plan to “get Trump” and all those nasty, unwashed, ignorant, beer swilling people who had the temerity to believe that the Democrats would change voting laws in violation of their own state constitutions, use a virus to manipulate voting processes or mishandle ballots and based on that belief, demand a review and accountability for those actions.
So, like the kid with his hand in the cookie jar, they reacted with anger and committed themselves to punish anyone who challenged their integrity and divine right to rule and being completely incapable of answering the question of “just because we can do a thing, should we do that thing?”, the J6 committee and the attendant “investigation” began.
I mean, somebody had to pay for what the Democrats did, and it certainly wasn’t going to be them.
The J6 “investigation” and the political incarceration of people charged with petty crimes (and many not charged with anything) is part of the plan to ban Trump from ever holding office again. These arrests, incarcerations and prosecutions have three purposes, first to punish, second as hostage taking and third as a disqualifier for Republicans.
So far, we have seen the “prosecutions” are less prosecution and more struggle sessions designed to result in the reeducation of the violators, complete with the attendant hostage video denouncements of their misguided beliefs. The J6 Shaman draw a massively disproportionate sentence for having the temerity to trespass at the Capitol and embarrass Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats who hid under their desks in the process.
The hostage aspect is an attempt to coerce Trump and the members of his former administration into cooperation – but to do so, he would have to give up rights and traditions afforded to every other president in the history of the Republic, if he doesn’t the Democrats will say he does not care about his supporters because they could be released if he would just cooperate.
Mark Elias, a lawyer central to most of the Democrat schemes over the past several years, suggested the third aspect, the disqualification of Republicans to serve. He noted that it was likely the Democrats would sue to remove elected Republicans from office under Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment, which prevents any elected official from serving if they “have engaged in insurrection or rebellion” against the government of the United States.
None of these three situations are going to work for Pelosi and her puppet committee, mostly because people who are not anger blinded Democrats or brain-dead Never Trumpers know neither Trump nor his administration (or any Fox News hosts for that matter) did anything worth investigating. There was no plan and no insurrection.
And yet, here we are a year later, watching the Democrats imitate Mao (and doing a terrible job of it) and attempting Stalinist purges of political undesirables.
Democrats are still trying to make “fetch” happen (people who have seen the “Clueless” will get that).
The true measure of how much people understand about what John Adams wrote will be the upcoming mid-term elections and if the GOP is given the majority in Congress again, what they do with it.
