“We are Republicans, and don’t propose to leave our party and identify ourselves with the party whose antecedents have been rum, Romanism, and rebellion. We are loyal to our flag.”
- Dr. Samuel D. Burchard
Last week brought with it a couple of major events, neither one of them good for America. In the first place, there was the passage of the comically, propagandistically names Inflation Reduction Act, an Act guaranteed to increase, not decrease inflation. Not to mention an Act that sics 87,000 new IRS agents on the American people – more specifically, it sics them on the middle class and small businesses that don’t have the legions of tax lawyers and accountants to fight back against the IRS – an Act that implements parts of the liberty destroying, World Economic Forum, Vatican approved Green New Deal, and an Act that manages to extend Obamacare subsidies passed as part of Covid relief.
In short, it’s another unconstitutional boondoggle that will do exactly the opposite of what it claims it will do.
Then there’s the FBI raid on Donald Trump’s Florida home, Mar-a-Lago. Many writers have rightly compared this raid to the sort of thing one would expect in a banana republic. Given the disturbing trend of both the Democrats generally, and the Biden Regime in particular, to politicize justice, this raid must be seen as a continuation of their attempts to outlaw their political opponents.
One can find many articles in the mainstream and even alternate conservative and libertarian press denouncing both the Inflation Reduction Act and the raid on Mar-a-Lago. But none of them, in this writer’s opinion, get to the heart of the matter.
