The fall of the Republic

Today in America it is the year in Rome fifty eight years before Christ. We are here. The mob is on the streets, which the courts decline to put down, courts and legal processes of the Republic politicized and defunct, carrying out political vengeance and refusing to enforce law, elections blatantly fraudulent and discredited. Caesar crossing the Rubicon was the culmination of more Rubicons than you can shake a stick …

Where we are, and where we are going

This blog has never been in the business of covering today’s news, but rather of covering the long sweep of history, and putting today’s news in the long sweep of history. And today’s news amounts to the fact that we are not going to get a good look at the ballots printed at midnight after the voting finished until and unless Trump proclaims the Insurrection Act: The President, by using …

As I predicted, Trump wins, Democrats steal

Trump has correctly announced he has won, and the Democrats are stealing it. Currently on you tube. Make a copy, because likely to disappear. Trump: “We won’t stand for it” “We Did Win This Election,” “This Is A Major Fraud On Our Nation” Trump’s victory was well beyond the margin of fraud, but as I have stated many times, there is no margin of fraud. There is, however, a margin …

The Trump landslide

Tonight, the map will be red. Which the press, to the extent they cover it at all, will denounce as “The red mirage”. Much as Biden’s laptop was Russian disinfo. What happens then? The Democrats have long known there would be a Trump landslide. Their plan was to stall for time, and then run a coup, denouncing Trump’s efforts to prevent them from endlessly manufacturing ballots of unknown provenance and …

Early voting is, predictably, a Trump landslide, and the media are failing to report it. This is the color revolution script – which is usually based on electoral victory being declared by the media for the …

The way through to the other side of the left singularity

We continue to move left, faster and faster. But trees do not grow to the sky, nor do they stabilize at some limit. They grow till they fall over. Leftism will not stabilize. It will suffer radical collapse, the question being, how soon, and how many of us will it kill in the process. We have been down this path before, many times. We are now at the stage that …

The final election

Democracy, and any system where transfers of power are peaceful, such as a Republic, require that the elite play by the rules, for limited stakes, thus require a virtuous elite. We no longer have the necessary conditions for democracy or a Republic, and restoring them would require recreating a virtuous elite, a project that takes generations. As Front Page Magazine observes: If they win, Antifa and BLM will be used …

The real election platform

The 2016 Republican Platform consisted of what little red meat still remained within the Overton Window – the biggest chunk of red meat being to prohibit transporting minor “children” over state lines for abortions without the consent of their parents – which is not all that red, and which, of course, they ignored, and instead funded Planned Parenthood, an organization that not only transports minor daughters over state lines for …
