Descent Into Anarchy?


To anyone who is following the current developments regarding the Judge Brett Kavanaugh hearings for U.S. Supreme Court, it should be obvious why I've given this post the title I have.

For those who may not, for whatever reason, allow me to recount what's been going on for several decades now, but only over the last decade has it begun to accelerate at an exponential rate.

As far back as the end of the Eisenhower Administration the nation was warned in his farewell address to, "...beware of the military industrial complex."

During J.F.K.'s Administration which followed, historical research has revealed that Kennedy was considering shutting down the C.I.A. His V.P., Lyndon Johnson, was under investigation for criminal activities as a Texas Senator, and Kennedy was intending to dump him and take on a replacement for V.P. in the '64 election. Yet, as we all know, he was assassinated in Dallas a year before the election took place.

In the Nixon Administration steps were taken to begin the global economic initiative with the trip to China and his efforts to normalize relations with the communist country. Looking back, we now are realizing that, while it might have resulted in cheap goods, it was not a good thing for our country. Nixon also took our U.S. currency off the gold standard which many economists have questioned for various reasons as a sound policy.

During the Carter Administration the Shah of Iran was allowed to be deposed and the Ruhollah Khomeini immediately returned from exile in France to assume control and radically reform the nation into an Islamic state. The taking and holding of hostages at the U.S. Embassy in Tehran for 440 days cast national shame on the U.S. This nation now poses the greatest threat to other middle-eastern nations; most importantly, Israel.

The Reagan Administration attempted to deal with the pressing issue of immigration with a deal in Congress to provide amnesty to those illegal aliens in the country at that time in exchange for funding for a southern border wall to keep future border jumpers from entering the country. The funding never was placed into future budgets from Congress; with the "can" kicked down the road to today's circumstance.

In the Clinton Administration efforts were taken to establish the global economy by establishing NAFTA, among other arrangements. This "free-trade agreement" with both Mexico and Canada witnessed over the next several years the exodus of manufacturing in America; especially the "rust belt in the mid-western states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

During the Bush Jr. Administration and the 9/11 aftermath, our nation experienced a resurgence - although considerably temporary - of patriotism and a resolve to protect our nation from future threats when the Congress promised the nation that it would implement measures to mitigate, as much as possible, any future threats from foreign nations; more specifically Islamic Jihadist ones. Those measures have largely been ignored.

Throughout all of these decades, our nation adhered to the Constitution's rule of law and presumption of innocence for anyone accused of a crime.

However, things began to change in an accelerated fashion when candidate Barrack Obama, who on October 31, 2008 screamed into a microphone in a campaign rally, "We are only five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America!"

Over his two term presidency we learned just what he meant by those words.

He, and his A.G. Eric Holder, began implementing a series of policies - mostly through a plethora of executive orders - which divided the country using an array of Saul Alynski tactics and strategies along racial lines and redistributing the wealth of those who'd worked hard to get where they were by labeling them as greedy capitalists who weren't paying their fair share. 

The Democratic Party during this period gradually radicalized as they passed the "Affordable Care Act" before ever reading the bill during the first two years of the new administration, while conveniently ignoring the growing immigration issue; only to later blame Republicans for its inaction.

Now, with the surprise upset of Trump winning over Hillary Clinton, the left has ratcheted up their hysterics because he - the "outsider" - wasn't supposed to win; Hillary was! Enter the clearly "in the pocket" lap dogs of the media and their bias for Hillary and against Trump.

Over the ensuing two years of the Trump Administration revelations have exposed the multitude of facts which have trickled out from F.O.I.A.s that it was the DNC and the Clinton campaign which were the actual ones colluding with a foreign spy and Russian sources to concoct a dossier of lies in order to frame and take down the duly elected president.

Never mind the fact that the president's policies and actions have resulted in a long list of accomplishments which have boosted the economy, decreased unemployment for all races, the appointment of Judge Gorsich to the Supreme Court and initiated international shifts in diplomacy and secured the nation's safety from threats. Not to mention the events like Ferguson, MO, Trevon Martin, and eventually the Antifa anarchists at certain college campuses to suppress free speech.

But those examples have turned out to be only the start of the rapid abandonment of the rule of law and our adherence to our Constitution. How?

The Kavanaugh hearings, as we know, have at the last hour before confirmation votes were to take place this week, had a bomb dropped by Sen. Feinstein (D) of CA regarding the sexual assault allegations claimed by a woman of the judge some 36 years ago while in high school. Shades of Judge Thomas and Anita Hill all over again.

Here's a very interesting collage of videos on this matter.

Liberals are using the #MeToo movement's recent momentum to use as a means to block his confirmation vote before the mid-terms this November out of resentment for Republicans not having hearings for the Obama appointee to fill the vacancy by the unexpected death of Justice Scalia.

The liberal leftists in Congress are now making statements which presume Kavanaugh's guilt before any testimony from Dr. Ford and despite a lack of any specifics or evidence; totally ignoring the standard our Constitution has operated by for over 240 years. (For an opposing view by women who've clerked for him, I recommend watching this video.)

To add insult to this insane behavior, the accuser - Dr. Ford - is acting as though she can call the shots and demand that the F.B.I. investigate her claims before she'll even testify to the Congressional Committee.

For one thing, no individual has any grounds or right to tell a Congressional Committee what the rules are, and another, a sexual assault claim is strictly a state matter and NOT a federal one.

This set of circumstances makes it obvious that this situation is purely a means for leftist liberals to maintain a semblance of control which they realize they are losing under the Trump Administration's successes, to stall the confirmation vote, and a way for them to garner their base's support to vote in the mid-terms in hopes of gaining control of Congress. (For a different presentation on this, check out this video.)

If they do, then we can expect to see impeachment proceedings, a return to Obama style policies to erase changes made by Pres. Trump over the last two years, and increases in taxes. Not to mention the measures which will force commuters into mass transit systems that will suck our life blood from the remaining middle-class which is already shrinking.

Senator Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii) said that Democrats could hold the seat vacant for two years if Judge Kavanaugh isn't confirmed and the Democrats take over the Senate in November.  

Here's an excerpt from Bill O'Reilly's web site on this issue:
It was sad but not surprising to hear liberal CNN commentator Chris Cuomo say that the presumption of innocence should only apply to court cases, not the court of public opinion in America.

Think about that for a moment. That means that any unproven accusation can be validated on the whim of opinion. No one is entitled to a doubt benefit in his or her life.

The media is already doing this, most often by putting the word “disgraced” in front of someone’s name when no action other than an allegation has been established. Thus, the national press drives the “accusation as fact” industry which is quickly destroying the fabric of a just society.

Senator Diane Feinstein and her cohorts knew that Judge Brett Kavanaugh and his family would be grievously hurt by a 37 year old accusation of sexual assault very short on facts. Feinstein even admits she does not know the truth and held back accusation details until they could be used for maximum political benefit. Her and her party’s goal is to keep Judge Kavanaugh off the Supreme Court and, apparently, anything goes.

Now, Kavanaugh’s accuser, Christine Ford, will apparently forego testifying in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee along with Judge Kavanaugh who is eager to testify.

Why, Dr. Ford? Why not tell your story to the world if it has devastated you for 37 years? Most who oppose Kavanaugh will applaud your courage no matter what you say. The entire Democratic Party, Hollywood, and many powerful media chieftains are actively rooting for you. That’s a lot of support.

Our nation is at an extremely dangerous moment in its political and social history. Are we going to let it degrade further into a socialist condition and become Venezuela? I hope and pray not.

This is why it is so critical for every conservative who understands what's at stake right now, gets out to vote and gets out the vote this November to support local conservative candidates for county, state, and national offices.
