A video clip has resurfaced to the potential detriment of the Democratic candidate for secretary of agriculture in Iowa.<\/p>\n

In the now five-year-old clip, posted to \u2018X\u2019 by something called the Iowa Field Report, Chris Jones stated, \u201cA lot of this grain farming now, it\u2019s not that hard. They\u2019re only working a few weeks out of the year.\u201d He added, \u201cthe truth is, you know, a lot of them are millionaires.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yes, I think we all know at least one wealthy, lazy<\/em> farmer.<\/p>\n

These are not your grandfather\u2019s DFLers (for the Democrat-Farmer-Labor Party, as it used to be called).<\/p>\n

They don\u2019t like farming<\/em>, and think being a farmer is a piece of cake. And that most farmers are wealthy.<\/p>\n

What do they think of labor<\/em>? Actually, they don\u2019t believe people should have to do<\/em> it. Don\u2019t wanna work? You should get a Universal Basic Income (UBI), likely derived from taxes those lazy, millionaire farmers pay. Are you an illegal alien and don\u2019t wanna work? You\u2019ll get even more free stuff. Homeless and unemployed? Here\u2019s a free crack pipe and a five-dollar bill. Now go vote for who we tell you to.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s the F for Farmer and the L for Labor, but what about the D for Democrat? There are precious few of those around at this point. There are no more Trumans or JFKs left. Democrats have quickly morphed into Democratic-Socialists, emphasis on Socialists. The crazier you are and the more checkered your past, the better. Want to abolish<\/em> farming, labor, babies, fireworks, football, and America? The DSA is the Party for you! And it\u2019s a big tent! Want to abolish the police, the military, and the Senate, too? Pack the court? Come on in! Won\u2019t submit to using our preferred if inaccurate pronouns? Whoa, stay away, Beelzebub!<\/p>\n

Jones\u2019 assertion is as if someone running to be the head of the United Auto Workers Union (UAW) said that the internal combustion engine should be banned. Within 25 years, if we are to help save the planet. Al Gore actually did say that, back in 1992, when he was vice president. Twenty-five\u00a0years later was 2017 \u2026 nine\u00a0years ago. But there is never serious follow-up questioning, no real accountability.<\/p>\n

So, we ever more frequently hear things such as, \u201cBeing a police officer is not that hard. That\u2019s why I think we should defund the police. Same for those in the military. It\u2019s just not that hard to be a soldier, and I think we should abolish the military, too. Now, being Secretary of Agriculture, however, is, like, super<\/em> hard. Government jobs are hard. Being a public servant is difficult, a sacrifice. But gosh darn it, we are willing to do it \u2026 for the betterment of society. For the greater good. [Because that\u2019s just how wonderful and indispensable I \u2014 and those just like me — are].\u201d<\/p>\n

These far-left nutcases make Chucky and Pennywise look like Mike Rowe and Victor Davis Hanson. Anyone who would vote for these dangerous clowns is mentally ill.<\/p>\n

The United States is being invaded from the outside\u2026and<\/em> attacked from within. And the erstwhile Democrat Party is not only okay with this but is aiding and abetting the assaults.<\/p>\n
