For nearly a year the Biden “presidency” -- whoever they are -- has subjected the United States to a destructive revolutionary agenda of unprecedented scope and virulence, all of it arising out of an irrational civilizational death wish for which there is no historical parallel.

No more than a small minority of Americans knowingly voted for this....

 

Here’s an incomplete list of the reality-averse ideas and suicidal policies that America’s ruling revolutionaries have promulgated and pursued since January 20, 2021:
  • Western civilization in general and America in particular are and always have been evil, and accordingly must be “fundamentally transformed,” i.e., abolished by revolution...
  • Whites, by their nature, are congenitally, innately, permanently racist, and every child and student in the nation must be taught that as fact;
  • Systemic racism,” whatever that is, is ubiquitous in America...
  • A multiplicity of “genders” exists...
  • ... “excellence” is a white male plot...
  • Permanently abolished borders and unlimited, unexamined immigration to America are unchallengeably good; those who oppose either are racists, xenophobes, Islamophobes or generalized haters...
  • As a desirable consequence of open borders and unlimited immigration the nation state will be abolished (that is, only those nation states of the West), to be replaced by international boarding houses occupied by peoples with conflicting values and behavior patterns...
  • Many if not most crimes of theft are not crimes at all and should not be prosecuted...
  • To save Mother Earth from “climate change,” there must be a radical downward adjustment of America’s standard of living...
  • ... iit’s fully appropriate to abolish free expression, if that’s what it takes, to compel universal acceptance of both the beliefs and agenda...
These lunatic beliefs and goals -- only a partial list – amount to the most astonishing embrace of guaranteed civilizational extinction in the history of government. And their promulgation by the highest powers in the United States has been in high gear for almost a year.

It can’t be said strongly or often enough, that the destructive madness now passing as federal ideology and policy amounts to an unprecedented revolution more profoundly radical than any other in human history....

The causes are several and beyond the scope of a brief column -- they include normal Americans’ negligent forfeiture to the Left of their public schools and universities, leading to transformation of both major media and popular culture into instruments of leftist propaganda, the left’s near complete control of the internet...

The Republican Party may not be much, but, institutionally, it’s all we’ve got....

... nearly 50% of the American electorate remains actively opposed to the Left’s agenda and imbued with the same basic good sense and patriotism that prevailed in both major political parties 50 years ago....

If the second remnant of the opposition, the Republican Party, can be made to grasp the significance of this tenacious and enormous reserve of patriotism and good sense, the route would still be open to recovery of the presidency and the congress and, with that, to a gradual, albeit lengthy and tortured, reassertion of national sanity.

There’s the rub. The Republican Party, the only electoral vehicle that can deliver America from this mess, is the same Party that got us into it. Its decades-long failure to defend America from the Left’s malicious falsehoods and delusional notions goes back at least to 1992. ...
