CROSSING THE AMERICAN RUBICON

First of all, thank God that Donald J. Trump and enough Republicans won in 2024 to get in power and push through the reforms we are seeing now. It hasn’t been all we wanted yet, and there is room for improvement, but what has been made clear is that the United States is now at a Rubicon moment as a result. Fortunately for us, this moment has our side at the reins of power. It may not remain this way.

I have to remind everyone again, as I did right after the election, that if the popular vote had shifted even five percent, the land would have been delivered into the hands of the Giggling Mental Patient and her entourage in the Democratic Party instead of to Donals Trump and the Republicans. That is not a margin that should give anyone any comfort. I would like to say we have a mandate. I must point to the numbers, however, and say what we really have is a fighting chance by the grace of God.

Unfortunately, the rebellion and the intrigues of the Left to thwart DJT have gone much like I predicted, to include the Left crossing the line into sedition.

In 49 B.C.E., Julius Caesar was ordered by the Roman Senate to disband his army and return to Rome as a private citizen. He did not, and a civil war resulted.

The vision of Caesar and his supporters, and the vision of Pompey and the Roman Senate, regarding what being Roman meant and what the Roman nation should be, were no longer compatible. A society can become so divided and acrimonious that peaceful coexistence is no longer possible.

Instead of this situation, we have DJT and some Republicans demanding the return of our rule of law and the enforcement of our immigration laws, and a large number of blue state leaders and Democrats, as well as some Quislings on the Republican side, saying that is not acceptable and they won’t stand for it, even if that means violence.

Something has to give, and it is giving—possibly in a slow burn at the moment, but perhaps in a much hotter and faster burn before too long. Nonetheless, the fire is spreading and doing damage, and it isn’t being put out.

The resolution of the Roman example was a four year long civil war within the Empire that ended the Republican period and ushered in the Roman Empire. We have yet to see what will happen with our example.

Worse still, the center of gravity of the split is arising from the alleged “upper class” and intelligentsia within this country. This isn’t something happening from the fringe, or from the bottom of the social ladder.

Examine the following examples, snatched easily and at random from the Internet:

Law school students at Stanford and Yale shout down speakers

ACTUAL insurrection in Minnesota

The vast majority of Democrats don’t want to fund ICE.  That’s because their true constituency consists of those who want to tear our country down and start over.

Hollywood, and the material it turns out, is a huge engine for promoting the globalists and anti-American interests. Why is anyone paying to watch their crap?

The same accusation can be leveled at many schools nationwide. Even in rural Texas, the wokesters are pushing hard.

This is nothing less than a unified effort by the Left to change the character of the United States fundamentally to something closer to Communist China, Venezuela, or England. And apparently, the illegal aliens filling our country were/are key in this plan; hence the refusal to have them purged from the voting rolls.

You either have a unified rule of law where everyone plays by the same rules and agrees on what they mean, or you do not. When you do not, the Mandate of Heaven is lost and the law is now worthless.

What you can get away with, and what force or deception or opportunity will let you get, replaces the majesty of the law. No one involved can now go up to Justice’s scales and demand redress, because the scales no longer function.

This monster that has been loosed from the box won’t stop its destruction with immigration laws, and has been at work doing mischief for some time already. Now, it is becoming so obvious it can no longer be ignored.

We are seeing the collapse if laws regarding assaults and theft, as those laws are violated in broad daylight with no fear of consequences. Activist judges and prosecutors refuse to enforce laws they disagree with as casually as ballots are forged.

A drive across a major city today will show you many examples of people ignoring both traffic laws and their survival instinct. This evil spirit will keep eating like acid at everything—food safety, the fire code, the adherence to industry manufacturing and construction standards, and any other rule you please.

The normalization of this chaos with our citizenry is beginning early—in our schools. It’s just getting started, and fortunately, enough Normals are still doing what they are supposed to that buildings aren’t routinely collapsing or burning down, and the disdain for traffic laws hasn’t led to a similar phenomenon in airliner cockpits. Understand, however—it’s coming.

As it continues, the intangible spirit of doing the right thing when no one is looking, or even if they are, will go out of style and send our country spiraling down the toilet to being a shattered place like Somalia, South Africa, or Syria.

The other very sinister thing this situation lays bare is the utter sociopathy of most of the Left. There is no going back from what they have done. Imagine, for a second, what we’d have been faced with if the Giggling Mental Patient had won the Presidency instead of DJT.

Crunk music would be boom-booming the windows at the Department of Justice. Wokeness would be still reducing the U.S. military into an ineffective jobs program that would be more of a threat to us than Communist China, with perhaps only pink crayons given to Marines.

The next pandemic would probably be underway and the fraud that Elon Musk’s DOGE uncovered would be continuing at full throttle. The United States would be a big-booty mess ripe for the plucking, and China would be musing whether an actual physical attack would be necessary to take us down.

The organs of the Federal government would have been thoroughly weaponized against the Normals. One very likely scenario would have been a full-blown assault on gun ownership and the Second Amendment, with BATFE heading up the effort versus ICE, probably complete with mandatory turn-ins and raids on anyone perceived to be uncooperative. I pick this one because they can’t do the things they want to do to us while we are still armed.

What do you think the narrative from the Left would be if those of us on the Right were saying and doing the things they are now saying and doing regarding ICE?

We really don’t need to. We know.

Accusations of “insurrection,” “January 6th 2.0,” or “January 6th: The Director’s Cut,” or who knows what else would flow from their lips just like other stuff associated with them flows around (I won’t be more specific).

They probably would indeed be deploying the military – those who hadn’t quit or been fired – against us.

Leaving aside what we imagine they would be doing now, you cannot reconcile their words and deeds today with the alleged reverence for the law and due process they professed to champion when they thought they were going to stay in power and DJT was going to be put in jail where he couldn’t slow them down any longer.

The outcome of the 2024 Republican and DJT victory was the collapse of the Left’s façade of being Americans first. They were outed as the vile radicals they are before they had a chance to amass the power they wanted. The Left obviously has no governing principles other than “get our way.”

There is no concern for what comes after, or much later, or any sort of intellectual honesty or consistency. Words are merely weapons to fire at the other side in order to get your way so you can destroy the suckers.

You cannot communicate with or bargain with such people in good faith because no good faith can be present when only one side cares about it.

It is by no means clear that the reprieve we got in 2024 will stick; particularly if the giant ship of society is allowed to continue to drift on the socialist course so many have earnestly set it on.

If the Democrats get back in charge, they will no doubt try to lecture us on why we have to obey the wonderful new laws they think up and take the certain mistreatment they will dish out.

To them I say: Do not think we will forget or forgive what you all have said and done, nor have any illusions about what we are dealing with if you all should you ever, due to the blackest of fortune, ascend again to meaningful power in this country.

To us I say: Pray for the best, vote early and often, and prepare yourselves mentally, physically, and spiritually for the turmoil of the coming days.
