Sir Winston Churchill described the Soviet Union during the Second World War as a “riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.” Unknowingly, Churchill was using the perfect characterization to describe the Democrat Party.
Indeed, Democrats remain elusive and can’t tell the truth no matter how hard they may try. They say they always championed civil rights when any student of history knows they started the Civil War because they wanted their slaves and weren’t about to give them up.
Since the Democrats took control over the education system decades ago, students have been denied the truth of what really happened during much of our history. It’s been filled with propaganda, deception, and fraud. Particularly, falsehoods overshadowed the civil rights movement and the push for women’s suffrage.
After the Civil War, Democrats worked hard to prevent Blacks from getting citizenship, even getting the right to vote.
In spite of their efforts, Republicans led the effort to get Blacks their due, citizenship, and voting rights. But it was not that simple. Democrats in many states terrorized their Black populations to prevent them from voting or living a decent life.
President Woodrow Wilson (D-NJ), in 1913, purged the entire federal government of Black federal workers, including the White House staff. Where a purge wasn’t practical, federal workers were re-segregated. Where Black employees could not be separated from White employees, special cages were built for Blacks within White workplaces. Wilson’s wife, Ellen, was especially racist. She was disgusted to see Black men and White women working together in the workplace. (TPM)
Wilson’s Collector of Internal Revenue in Georgia in 1913 said, “There are no government positions for Negroes in the South. A Negro’s place is in the cornfield.” (TPM) It sounds just like Jerry Nadler, who said, “We need many illegal immigrants in the country to pick vegetables,” or Pelosi, who said we need migrants to ‘pick the crops.’ Some things never change.
I doubt we need upwards of 20 million illegal migrants to pick crops. But the Dems could use 20 million more Democrats, especially with a less than 25% approval rating.
It was only a very brief period when President Kennedy and Robert Kennedy, as Attorney General, championed civil rights that many older Democrats hang on to. Johnson only gave it lip service— and nasty lip service it was. “Those ni**ers are getting uppity. We have to give them something— not to make any difference, just enough to get them to vote Democrat for the next 200 years.” (Paraphrased)
The fight to give Blacks equal rights as well as giving women the vote was a Republican effort with women as early as 1848. On May 21, 1919, an Illinois Republican (James Mann) reintroduced the 19th Amendment in the House. It passed by a vote of 304 to 89. The party split was notable, with 200 Republicans voting in favor, with only 102 Democrats voting with them.
It was the same in the Senate…56 to 25. 82% of Republicans voted in favor, while only 41% of Democrats voted to support the amendment.
The following year, the fight to ratify began. The struggle within state legislatures was considerable. Many Democrat-controlled legislatures opposed the amendment. In the end, 36 states ratified the 19th Amendment. Of the 36 states that ratified the amendment, 26 were Republican.
The next presidential election reflected the ratification vote. With the additional 8 million voters, Warren G. Harding won the presidency with a 26.2% advantage. There are no coincidences.
In recent decades, Democrats have taken a sharp turn to the left, albeit over the cliff, supporting homosexual marriage, transgenderism, unrestricted abortion, and a mass liberalization of voter regulations, even not requiring any proof of identity to register or vote. When Bill Clinton was president, he signed into law the Defense of Marriage Act, defining marriage as only between a man and a woman. How does one change his mind on such an issue unless he was just testing the political winds and never had core values?
The Democrat Party has embraced European values and the Great Reset and what it stands for…a fascist takeover of the planet by unelected oligarchs and the elite, yet they display signs at protests that say, ‘Fight Oligarchy.’ They support border chaos. They cry “democracy, democracy” and support a world government sans democracy. Dems talk freedom and hate free speech. They cheat on elections and can’t even see fit to conduct honest primaries. Democrats knew Biden was unqualified to be president; don’t kid yourself. For four years we had government by closed-door committee with a fool for a president eating ice cream at the beach.
Dems supported Musk’s EVs until he voted Republican. Now he’s a bum. Democrats ‘concern’ themselves for the well-being of children yet support the mutilation of children in trans surgery. Almost 400,000 children are missing who crossed the border. No comment from Democrats. They say they support families, yet they support indoctrinating K-12 children about the LGBTQ+ community, hosting drag queen story hours in public libraries, homosexual marriage, and the adoption of children by such unions.
The Dems have taken on climate change. Despite the hoax, they spent trillions accomplishing nothing. They refuse to consider kitchen-table issues people care about.
They have caused so much court confusion that no one knows the government branches’ roles anymore. Their affinity for criminals that kill and terrorize innocent people is loathsome.
They are immoral, anti-God, and decidedly antisemitic. It goes on and on.
And to top it all, they are violent. They started a civil war in 1861 and seem poised to start another one. Maybe that is why they are so anti-gun and look down at those who defend themselves.
Democrats are trying desperately to locate an issue that appeals to the average voter. Even so, don’t believe they will embrace it privately. They lie and twist truth like a pretzel. They are struggling now because they have no core values except the acquisition of power. They do not inspire trust. They are content to follow Europe and Canada into the abyss. We can only thank God they are not in power.
