Recently LibertyUnderFire published “Biden Voters Bear Responsibility for Afghanistan Debacle.” It documented a foreign policy disaster by the Democrats second to none. Sixty percent of Americans now believe Biden should be removed from office. Two years ago I said, “the day will come when few will admit having once been a Democrat.” This prediction will prove even more true ahead. Why?

Because on January 20th the United States became a socialist country ruled by Democratic Socialists. Socialism in any form has no brakes in its control over others hence can become very tyrannical. Tyranny, whether expressed by lockdowns, compulsory mask wearing, vaccinations, vaccine passports, or censorship is still forced behavior by one part of the population on the other and is not popular. Socialism divides the population into two classes, the rulers and the ruled without the ruled having any say in the matter. Elections, if they exist at all, are for window dressing to make socialism appear to have popular support but are always controlled. The antidote to socialism is the U.S. Constitution as written, as it, when followed, provides brakes on the growth of government and prohibits tyranny. This is why socialists oppose the Constitution.

Because, as the coming forensic audits will prove, and FrankSpeaks.com has already shown beyond doubt of any reasonable person, the election of 2020 was the most fraudulent in U.S. history by enemies of the republic both domestic and foreign. Over a thousand affidavits and real time computer switches of Trump votes to Biden in every county will necessitate a reckoning with justice. The Democrat Party will fall from grace. Are Democrats interested in making certain this never happens again? No! They roadblocked every audit and implemented full-court press censorship practices of anything negative to Joe Biden.

Instead, their H.R. 1 “Bill For the People Act” sought to cement indefinitely corrupt election practices widely used in the 2020 election. Contrary to its title the nearly 800-page bill would remove authority over elections from the people and the states. It constitutes a federal takeover of all elections. It installs controlled elections. With the defeat of the bill in the Senate the House simply repurposed much the same bill, now called HR 4 which in now pending.

Because, more and more Christians view the Democrat Party as a threat to Christianity as demonstrated by their promotion of the so called Equality Act which “would give homosexuality, transgenderism, and other perversions of human sexuality and gender the same protections as race or sex in employment, housing, public accommodations, and more.” It specifically prohibits religious freedom as a defense. “The legislation applies to churches, religious schools, religious hospitals, religious employers, gathering places, sports, all government entities, and more. Christian adoption agencies will be shut down, too, if they refuse to place children with homosexuals or individuals confused about whether they are men or women.” It could criminalize Christianity, Judaism and Islam as their holy writ condemn as sin the behaviors of the LGBTQ community (“Equality Act Would Unleash Federal Persecution of Christians,” By Alex Newman, New American, May 8, 2019).. It is also anti-women affecting bathroom privacy and women’s sports.

Because, Democrats oppose the Constitution on virtually every freedom issue especially religion, speech, press, self defense, and the 9th and 10th amendments. Indeed as a student of the Constitution, I have difficulty finding any part of the Constitution that they support as written.

With the violence, burning and looting in our streets last summer, endorsed by the Democrat Party presses and office holders, and staged to reappear after the forensic audits this Fall, more people are purchasing firearms for their own self-defense than ever. They see the wisdom of the Founders in defining the people as the militia and cementing their right to keep and bear arms from any government. Democrats can not push to defund the police without at the same time causing the populous to feel unprotected. Many now understand that an armed populous is the best protection from a complete socialist revolution.

Because, the Democrat Party opposes borders. Such opposition allows criminals, terrorists, child sex predators (even pedophilia slavers for the vile appetites of the wealthy class, Hollywood and members of Congress), and drug dealers unrestricted access to our vulnerable populations and the bounty of our land. Illegals, they believe, in appreciation for access to America, will become reliable Democrat voters.

Because, the Democrat Party seeks to bankrupt America. On March 15, 2021, Joe Biden signed into law the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Act without a single Republican vote in either house. Only 9% of it had anything to do with the Wuhan China Virus. Nearing passage is Biden’s $3.5 trillion budget and $1 trillion infrastructure bill. Democrats plan trillions more debt in reparations for descendants of slaves, the green new deal, and free college for everyone. It is hard to believe that the Democrats, and globalist Republicans, are not purposely pushing us over a cliff to destroy the economy of the once wealthiest nation in world history. In just eight months of his reign we are no longer energy independent and soaring prices are already felt by everyone.

Yes globalist Republicans too have been complacent in bankrupting America because of their national debt increases; but Democrats appear to be aggressively so. Biden provides benefits for those staying home from work, resulting in factories not having sufficient laborers to maintain their normal production loads. This has resulted in shortages and backordering of items of every kind, crippling the economy. And severe food shortages are on the horizon.

For these reasons, “the day will come when few will admit having once been a Democrat.”
