Rashida Tlaib, who recently spoke at something called the &#8216;People&#8217;s Conference for Palestine.\u2019 (Note to Barreiro: \u201cRep.\u201d means she is in Congress.)<\/p>\n<p>Tlaib stated: &#8220;Look at this room, motherf***ers, we ain&#8217;t going anywhere! The political structures\u00a0that I have to work in, that we all are surrounded by, was built on slavery, and genocide, and rape, and oppression. Real change doesn&#8217;t come from the cowards and warmongers in Congress, it comes from the streets. It comes from all of us mobilizing and seizing the power to resist and fight back.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She seems nice.<\/p>\n<p>She added, &#8220;Gaza is the compass in this country,\u201c and, chillingly, \u201cNow we&#8217;re in Congress and we&#8217;re in every corner of the United States.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Tlaib apparently believes Jan. 6 was a dark day indeed, but the Oct. 7 torture and slaughter of more than a thousand men, women, and children was a day of celebration and the way forward.<\/p>\n<p>It is no longer enough for Democrats to try to \u201cfundamentally transform\u201d the (formerly) United States, something one wouldn\u2019t do if one respected and appreciated it. Now, the cool kids in the DSA want to destroy it. The DSA\u2019s platform endorses \u201cscrapping the U.S. Senate, \u2018abolishing the carceral forces of the capitalist state,\u2019 defunding the police and Department of War, open borders forever, amnesty for each and every illegal immigrant, and replacing the president and Supreme Court.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/interstatelogisticshubs.com\/?p=3030\">Merit over privilege<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Of course, what and who they really want to replace is you, the patriotic middle-class voter in \u201cfly-over country.\u201d That their policies would necessarily destroy you as citizens is a feature, not a bug.<\/p>\n<p>Their goal is the same as that of every Marxist\/Communist tyrant that has ever lived: complete control of you and eternal power for themselves. The Founders knew this. That is why the left demonizes and despises them \u2026 and why they try so hard to get you and I to do so, as well.<\/p>\n<p>But the Founders studied all of history and embarked on a nearly impossible journey to grant us a limited government of, by, and for, the people. Against all odds, they succeeded, and we were bequeathed documents meant to forever enshrine our \u201cunalienable\u201d rights, granted to us by our Creator. (By the way, these documents made it a virtual <em>fait accompli <\/em>that slavery would soon end in America, even as it was still practiced in various other countries, something the American media would never tell you.)<\/p>\n<p>The Democrat party has undergone a remarkable transformation, having been \u201cfundamentally transformed\u201d itself. (Emphasis on \u201ctrans.\u201d) Whereas it was once openly hostile and racist to blacks, it is now openly hostile and racist to whites, Christians, heterosexuals, and patriots \u2026 even while continuing to promote policies extremely detrimental to black people. That is truly remarkable. Or what some people would call evil, myself included.<\/p>\n<p>In many ways, Graham Platner was the perfect modern-day face of the Democrat party: (\u201calleged\u201d) sexual abuser, communist, etc., etc. His last reported words to election officials as he announced his decision to exit the race? \u201cF*ck ICE. Free Palestine. Up the hearts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Well, he\u2019s not exactly John Adams or Thomas Jefferson, but whatever \u2026 right?<\/p>\n<p>There are many on the left that simply do not believe in the concepts \u2014 or existence &#8212; of good and evil \u2026 except when it comes to demonizing those with whom they disagree. Not for the unfettered killing of babies for personal convenience? You are the devil. Want to make America great again? You are Hitler. Prefer Christianity over Islam? Bigoted Islamophobe! Like to engage in dialogue on these topics with students at colleges? Then you deserve to die.<\/p>\n<p>At this point, the pertinent question isn\u2019t whether anyone in Congress is <em>anti<\/em>-America, but whether there are many who are truly<em> pro<\/em>-America \u2026 and for the right reasons.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/interstatelogisticshubs.com\/?p=3027\">Cyclosporiasis: A doctor answers questions about the parasite in your produce<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Image: Jennifer Hasegawa, via Wikimedia Commons \/\/ CC BY-SA 4.0 Deed<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is a moronic but popular sports-talk radio host in the Twin Cities, Dan Barreiro, who uses a quote from Sarah Palin as part of the lead-in to his weekly Wednesday segment with local \u201cpolitical wonk\u201d Pat Kessler, a long-time lefty who has worked for WCCO for decades.
