If Democrats Criminalize Opposition And Cripple The Court, Democracy Is Dead
Only if a critical mass of Americans âknow what time it isâ will there be any hope of combating this onslaught.
Dems' One-Two Punch: Criminalize Opposition, Cripple SCOTUS
Only if a critical mass of Americans 'know what time it is' will there be any hope of combating this onslaught.

Democrats are seeking to land a one-two punch to cement their control of America today and for generations to come: Criminalize the political opposition and cripple the last authority to which the opposition might appeal in defense of its rights.
This is one way to understand two running lines of attack that may appear independent but are inextricably intertwined.
Criminalizing the Opposition
The first consists of the unprecedented, Soviet show trial-style âshow me the man and Iâll show you the crimeâ âcasesâ conjured up against Donald Trump and two dozen others in his orbit, chiefly including his lawyers. The zealous prosecutors have many motives for torturing laws to hang them around the neck of the former president and GOP front-runner in the middle of a campaign â a frivolous and vengeful prosecutorial effort pursued arguably in violation of laws, norms, and core principles of justice.
While turning the First and Sixth Amendments into dead letters, these cases also effectively criminalize the seeking of office of anyone who might hold unauthorized views, the Republican contesting of elections or questioning of election integrity, and such Republicansâ legal defense.

Crippling the Court
The only thing that may stand in the way of Trump, or any other political dissenters threatened with contrived charges going forward, is the Supreme Court. This brings us to part two of the one-two punch: the Democratsâ sustained attack on the highest court in the land.
Democrats have grown ever more unhinged about the Supreme Court because it represents perhaps the last powerful American institution they do not wholly control. âBorking,â the âhigh-tech lynchingâ of Justice Clarence Thomas, and the caper against Justice Brett Kavanaugh normalized vicious political attacks on non-leftist justices aimed at destroying them or, at minimum, cowing them into submission once seated.
By extension, these assaults normalized vicious political attacks on the court itself. For if the justices themselves were deplorable and irredeemable, then so too was the court â a court now to be treated with the same contempt as any other political institution. In reality, what the leftist assailants objected to was that these justices might not rule in accord with the leftâs wishes. The court, in short, was illegitimate if it was not leftist.
~Snip~
Democrats no doubt see that the court is the last backstop for justice â the last respite for the opposition to protect their rights from leftists aimed at seizing complete control. Hence their withering assault on it.
The one-two punch aims to knock out Trump. But at a deeper level, it is about ensuring de facto one-party rule at the point of a gun. Only if a critical mass of Americans âknow what time it isâ will there be any hope of combating this onslaught.
Commentary:
At some point though...........
like Red said in Shawshank âeveryone has their breaking pointâ
Three crazed Soros funded prosecutors are criminalizing politics ......and normal campaign conversations.....with more than 90 simultaneous indictments of Donald Trump.
Ghetto girl, New York State prosecutor Letitia James, is hounding Trump with a $250 million state lawsuit against the Trump organization and family.
James is not fooling anyone.
She is maliciously hiding her ghetto-honed beliefs about Trumpâs successes on the pretense of Trump âsupposedlyâ overvaluing his real estate and filing inaccurate financial statements.
Yes, people, this what the success-challenged Blue Plantation ghetto really believes about othersâ successes.
James is also scouring Trumpâs papers to get tips on how the welfare-prone ghetto types might get a bit of success. So are Alvin Bragg of NYC or Fani Willis of N.C.
These Lawyers are Anti-American Criminal Thugs, not Zealots in pursuit of conflicting ideals. They are deserving of the harshest rebukes. Just as Mike Nifong was disbarred so should Bragg, James and Willis be disbarred for their actions.
Fani Willis in effect is criminalizing the legal profession â a business that can only end with the âtotalitarian form of governmentâ whose first steps Justice Stevens identified with the elimination of lawyers.
Regretfully, Civil War is already here, itâs just that too many are afraid to name it.
Ashli Babbitt was the first victim in the shot in the war.
Forget the media frenzy about the details: âWho spoke with whom and when, which Trump adviser is being charged for which âdebunkedâ claim, and so on.
The most important point about the Fulton County indictments is that lawyers are being charged with felonies for doing legal work.
