The Real Extremists

We need to pause for a moment and appreciate what the Republican majorities are preventing the socialist Democrats from doing to us.

Now that we’re in another election year, Democrats and the left-wing media enablers are hyperventilating about “MAGA extremists.” They ought to look in the mirror. The Democrat Party has become a freak show!
 
In Maine, Democrats are on the verge of nominating someone who wouldn’t win a race for dog catcher in any previous era. Graham Platner, who is running for the U.S. Senate, has described himself as a “communist.” He has a Nazi tattoo. He said all cops are “bastards.”
 
In Michigan, Democrat Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, another Marxist Muslim, openly campaigns with Israel-hating, America-hating Hasan Piker. El-Sayed claims Israel is “just as evil as Hamas.”
 
He’s also making headlines for mocking Vice President J.D. Vance’s children. It’s so disgusting I don’t want to repeat what he said. But if any Republican said anything remotely similar about a Democrat’s children, his career would be over.
 
By the way, Michigan’s Dearborn Democrats just nominated a candidate for the University of Michigan Board of Regents who praised Hezbollah and called Jews “demons.”
 
Texas Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico claims the Bible promotes abortion, and he insists that men can get pregnant.
 
Billionaire Tom Steyer, the leading Democrat in the race for governor of California, is vowing to arrest federal immigration police and put them in prison. From the Civil War to segregation and now immigration, Democrats are hellbent on violating federal law.
 
Democrat Lutheran minister Sarah Trone Garriott is running for Iowa’s Third Congressional District. She said the biggest lesson she learned after the 9/11 jihadist attack on America was that Americans are Islamophobic. When asked to deliver the opening prayer at the Iowa legislature, she gave an Islamic prayer.
 
Now, we’re learning that she also participated in the wedding of two Satanists. Who knows—she may go up in the polls given where the Democrat voter base is these days.
 
In Virginia, Democrats elected an attorney general who fantasized about conservatives holding their murdered children to “teach them a lesson” about “gun control.”
 
I know some conservatives are frustrated that Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune haven’t done this or that. We need to pause for a moment and appreciate what the Republican majorities are preventing the socialist Democrats from doing to us.
 
If the GOP did nothing but be a firewall against the Left’s insanity that would be valuable!
