Re: An Open Letter to the Harris/Walz Supporters You Know
“Here on the Left Coast, I sent this letter to so many leftists that it may have taken down the power grid. Thank you for posting this. There has been a very high human cost as a result of the Biden and Harris folly, and no joy at all.” —California
“Well, it has been interesting to see my Democrat friends squirm when reading this open letter. I am badly outnumbered here in New York City, but like my fellow New Yorker, Donald Trump, the harder the climb, the more tenacious we are.” —New York
“So this open letter left no room for reasoned denial. Anyone reading this and still supporting Harris has lost all ability to reason. And I think that is precisely what the Democrats expect of their constituents.” —Georgia
“It will be interesting to see what happens when Donald J. Trump becomes the 47th president. Will we see January 6 ‘Democrat style’ with violence and burning in the streets? Oh, that’s right — the whole nation got a mega dose of that Biden- and Harris-supported rage before the 2020 election. When the thugs don’t get their way, things get ugly!” —Illinois
Re: About Kamala’s Catchy Campaign Slogan
“Having been born in Cuba and coming to the U.S. as a refugee in 1961, I am struck by the similarities between the Harris/Walz campaign slogans and those used by the Castro/Che tyrants. The strong connection between the communist ‘Forward’ slogan and the policies of the Biden/Harris/Walz troika should be subjected to intense scrutiny. Unfortunately, if Harris/Walz wins the election, that is exactly where our country is headed.” —California
“Whenever I hear ‘Forward,’ I think: Here we go again. Pick up a history book on Marxist ideology. To socialists, ‘forward’ means something entirely different than moving ahead!” —Illinois
“Having grown up under an oppressive regime in Eastern Europe before escaping to America, it astounds me how lazy and uninformed Americans are about the threats to freedom posed by the Harris/Walz ticket.” —Virginia
“Brett Baier really nailed Harris, but he missed a knockout punch. Her anger evident, she blurted out, ‘This is a democracy.’ Brett should have countered, ‘This is a Republic, if we can keep it.’ Can you imagine her trying to respond to that?” —West Virginia
“The up-reaching hands in the images of Harris and Lenin don’t show the hollow faces of those under the fist of tyrants. And Harris affirms that Trump is the Nazi?” —California
“Mao assumed that pose as China headed into a disastrous period with his Red Guard. And my very first thought upon hearing her slogan? Mao’s ‘Great Leap Forward.’ Her supporters are too mesmerized with ‘joy’ to know the history of how that turned out in Red China and in the USSR.” —Oregon
Re: What Happened to Kamala Harris?
“Kamala has always been unlikable. Despite the media painting her as a savior for the Democrats, she has proven that she is not qualified to be president. She cannot answer simple questions and is a horrible person. Thank you, Joe Biden, for throwing your middle finger up when the Democrats threw you under the bus and choosing Kamala as your successor. And that is the only thing I will thank you for since I believe you are, and have always been, a crook!” —Illinois
“In the immortal words of John F. Kennedy, ‘You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can’t fool all the people all of the time.’ She is a prime example of how lies catch up to oneself. If people read about her past and look at her political career, they will see the phoniness come shining through. The one thing you can believe is that she is a down-to-earth communist with her beliefs. Just read up on her past and I am sure you would not vote for her in your right mind.” —Tennessee
“What a slap in the face to every citizen to have the Democrat Party, without any alternative candidate allowed, push forward the most incompetent, inferior, totally worthless candidate for president possible! There are very few in the Democrat Party nationally who would not present a far better candidate. And then, to add more insult to the long-suffering American, she chose the worst governor in the country as her running mate!” —Minnesota
Re: Michigan Dems Set the Stage for a Steal
“Let us face the truth. The Democrats will sell their souls to see that Kamala and as many of their candidates as possible win in 2024. Already, they are making absurd statements, inventing lies, and repeating falsehoods to sway voters. Knowing how easy it was for them to get Biden elected in 2020, what makes us believe cheating at the polls again is not part of their 2024 victory plan?” —North Carolina
“The next time some leftist pinhead tosses out an accusation of ‘fascism,’ reporters should challenge them to explain exactly what they think that word means (just as I’ve often wished someone would make KJP or Mayorkas define a ‘secure’ border). Yes, there are fascist tendencies in some American political groups, but it’s overwhelmingly on the Left. In fact, aside from rounding up racial minorities and homosexuals, there are few policies of the 1930s National Socialists that would be unwelcome on most ‘woke’ college campuses today (especially now that overt hatred of the Jews isn’t off the table). It’s a shame that even most conservative journalists seem content to dutifully record such inane slanders without requiring elaboration.” —Georgia
Re: Tulsi Gabbard Joins the Republican Party
“I had some reservations when Tulsi Gabbard was mentioned as a possible choice for vice-presidential candidate for Donald Trump, given her long association with the party of death and destruction, even being elected vice chair of the Democratic National Committee in 2013. But having recognized where it was going and leaving the Democrat Party, she was able to express a truth that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz actively try to suppress: Abortion is murder. Ms. Gabbard, welcome to the GOP — the Growth and Opportunity Party; the party that stands for the rights of every person, from beginning to natural end, not just ‘intersectional’ groups.” —Minnesota
Re: Trampling Religious Liberty for the Death Cult
“The one question that pro-abortionists always refuse to answer is this: Would you approve of abortions in the ninth month? The obvious answer should be ‘No,’ but they can’t say that because they would have to admit the freedom to abort is not, cannot be, absolute. Another deceptive phrase they use is, The decision should be between the woman and her doctor. But the only doctor involved in the decision is the abortion doctor, and the only decision is, When and how much will it cost?” —Texas
Re: Communism Has Turned Off Cuba’s Lights
“The reason Cuba is an economic mess are the disastrous and corrupt government policies. The government chooses to pour money into its military and government ministries instead of spending it on infrastructure for the benefit of the Cuban people. Thus, the military and the ministries are used to repress dissent and maintain control over the average Cuban citizens, as well as maintain the corrupt leaders and ministers in power.” —California
Re: The Crisis of American Manufacturing
“I wanted an electrical tester for GFCI outlets. There were two brands on the shelf, both made in China. So, what is the answer? American companies have to manufacture here. Chinese products have to be tariffed so heavily that they can’t give them away. It is a matter of national security! I paid $14 for something that probably cost $4 to make and ship to the USA in bulk.” —Illinois
Re: Not Smart
“John 15 is my go-to. I went through Pendleton boot camp in the ‘60s. I learned that which served me during my two combat tours in Viet Nam. Now, I’m in the Army of God, equipped with the weapons of warfare. I learned the Word is true and perfect. I also can do way more in Christ then I ever anticipated. (Just like Marine Corps boot camp.) God is faithful. This ole Marine understands. 😉 I equate this to my God in that he wants the best for me, and that means more boot camp here on earth with the trials and troubles to endure/experience/train for growth. I enjoy your words, Ron, especially from another ole jar head…” —Texas
“Roger, I’ve been praying 2 Chronicles 7:14 daily since before the 2020 election. I hope we are joined by millions of other Americans in doing so. The U.S. needs a swift about-face back toward God if we expect to continue to be blessed as a country. Something to pray about, indeed!” —South Carolina
