The Left Loves Criminals
The socialists and neo-Marxists who control today’s Democrat Party continue to fall on their swords for all the wrong people. The weekend news talk shows were filled with failed big city mayors blasting President Trump’s desire to get crime under control.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, whose approval rating is 26%, was on MSDNC yesterday. When asked about the possibility of President Trump sending National Guard troops to Chicago to help the city deal with crime, Johnson replied:
“We’re going to remain firm. We’ll take legal action. But the people of this city are accustomed to rising up against tyranny. And if that’s necessary, I believe that the people of Chicago will stand firm alongside of me as I work every single day to protect the people of this city.”
So, a big city mayor, whose constituents are hiding in their homes because of violent drug gangs and thugs, says he’s confident the people of his city will rise up and fight back against law enforcement help from the federal government.
At least four people were murdered and 19 others were wounded in Chicago this weekend. Since Donald Trump deployed National Guard troops to Washington, D.C., more than 1,000 criminals have been arrested, 111 illegal guns have been taken off the streets, and the nation’s capital has gone 12 days straight without a single homicide.
Maybe it’s time Chicago’s residents “rise up” against Mayor Johnson’s incompetence.
“Maryland Man” Madness
Meanwhile, leftists in Baltimore got out of bed this morning eager to volunteer for a community trash cleanup project. No, that’s not what they did. Were they volunteering to help Baltimore police officers by forming neighborhood watch patrols? Nope.
They were staging a protest outside of an immigration office where “Maryland Man” Kilmar Abrego Garcia reported to after a federal judge released him. He was taken into custody by immigration police and is being processed for deportation to Uganda.
Let’s not forget who he is. He is an accused wife beater. He is a human trafficker who was stopped in Tennessee. He was and probably still is in MS-13. He was ordered to be removed by two immigration judges. And this is who the Left is rallying around.
Nothing will rouse these leftists when Americans are murdered by illegal aliens. But they have found their voice now. Abrego Garcia has become the Left’s patron saint of open borders, an iconic figure leftists kneel before.
The amount of positive publicity this wife-beating, human trafficking, illegal alien gang member has received is almost incalculable. A significant portion of America’s political and media establishment have rushed to defend him and say good things about him.
He has received a longer-lasting moment in the sun than American heroes who gave their lives on the battlefield. The life of Laken Riley did not get the attention Abrego Garcia has received.
What would any normal American citizen have to do to get the attention of America’s Left? What great achievement would be necessary to get you the amount of press coverage he has gotten for simply being a criminal that Donald Trump is trying to get out of the country?
Compare the fawning treatment of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to how our brave immigration police are treated. For trying to get the invasion that occurred during Biden’s administration under control, they are smeared as “Nazis,” “fascists,” and “members of the KKK.”
How long will we have to wait until someone builds a monument to Kilmar Garcia on the National Mall? Maybe he can share a national holiday with George Floyd, whose death set off the nationwide riots during 2020’s “Summer of Love.”
The Left takes giants like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson and turns them into despicable monsters, while they turn “Maryland Man” Kilmar Abrego Garcia and others like him into heroes.
Dangerous Precedents
The editors of the Wall Street Journal published an editorial last week declaring that it was a very bad thing to get even with your political opponents. One of the arguments is that the raid on John Bolton’s home and office set a “dangerous precedent.”
By the way, I never thought I’d see so many Democrat politicians and media hacks defend John Bolton!
No, the “precedent” was set when armed FBI agents burst into Mar-a-Lago and spent hours there rummaging through the president’s residence and the former first lady’s clothes.
Leftists at the time were very excited. And one of the people most excited about the Mar-a-Lago raid was John Bolton, who thought Donald Trump was going down.
The Bolton raid isn’t retribution. It’s accountability. In order for federal agents to raid his home and office, they had to get a warrant. They had to present evidence to a judge, who had to approve the warrant. There is nothing irregular about any of that.
Whether it’s John Bolton, Letitia James, or Adam Schiff, there could have been a dangerous precedent set in all of this.
That would have been the precedent that the Left can do anything it wants to anyone, even a Republican president, and the response from us would have been nothing. That would have been a very dangerous precedent for obvious reasons.
Ending The Assault On America
The Trump administration has voiced its displeasure about the left-wing ideology that has permeated the Smithsonian and other historic sites around the country. One of the controversies involves the treatment of slavery.
You couldn’t turn on a “mainstream” media news show over the weekend without some leftist commentator attempting to smear President Trump as a defender of slavery. They accused him of trying to erase America’s history of slavery. These arguments are totally absurd, but many people watching these networks will believe them.
Here’s a little history.
In 2019, the 1619 Project hit the scene. It literally argues that the whole purpose of America was slavery. It argues that the reason we rebelled against England was the fear of the Founding Fathers that England would end slavery. That is a gross libel of the Founding Fathers.
But that idiotic, poisonous historical revisionism was put in schools all over America and quickly permeated government-run institutions like the Smithsonian.
Donald Trump is not trying to erase slavery. How would you even do that? No, what is being erased by the Left is the greatness of America so our children will feel nothing but loathing for the country of their birth.
If you want to talk about “erasing history,” in 2020 Democrats tore down more than 160 historical monuments in jurisdictions they controlled. Other historical monuments were violently destroyed by radical leftists.
Supposedly, the Smithsonian is made up of experts, historians, and scholars.
Well, when it opened, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture did not have one word about Justice Clarence Thomas, one of the most outstanding Supreme Court justices ever. It was only after an avalanche of outrage from conservatives that Thomas was added as an afterthought.
The National Archives even put trigger warnings on our founding documents, including the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.
We must stop being defensive!
Donald Trump is not defending slavery. He is trying to stop the neo-Marxists who are trying to indoctrinate us.
So, for all those people complaining about “history being erased,” I have a suggestion. Let’s expand history. Who defended slavery? That was the Democrat Party. The Democrat Party of 1850, of 1880, of 1930, and of 1950. It wasn’t a one-off incident.
The Democrat Party owned the South and segregation for decades long after the Civil War. Jefferson Davis, Eugene Talmadge, George Wallace, Eugene “Bull” Connor, Orval Faubus, and Lester Maddox—all Democrats.
France Is Furious
U.S. Ambassador to France Charles Kushner, father of President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, is in big trouble with the French government. He published an open letter to French President Emmanuel Macron last week, warning that the French government’s constant criticism of Israel was inciting antisemitism and more violence against Jews in France.
Among other things, Kushner cited the alarming statistic that nearly half of French youth say they have never heard about the Holocaust. He asked, “What are children being taught in French schools if such ignorance persists?”
Well, France is furious. Kushner has been summoned for a reprimand by Macron’s government.
Sadly, Kushner is right. Just a year ago, the chief rabbi of Paris warned, “There is no future for Jews in France. I tell everyone who is young to go to Israel or a more secure country.”
Europe is being overwhelmed by Muslim migration week after week. And every week that passes, European nations become measurably more antisemitic. Yet, most European politicians lack the courage to stop it. But when the American ambassador points out that they are in bed with evil, then they jump to action.
