The Patriot Post® · Trump's Arrest

I was literally physically sick Thursday watching what the neo-Marxist left is doing to Donald Trump and, by extension, what it is doing to all of us. Trump fought the left harder than anyone in the Republican Party ever has, and that’s why the neo-Marxist left is so determined to crush him.

If one of the UFOs they talked about during the Fox News debate suddenly took Trump away, the left wouldn’t change. It would continue doing everything you see happening now, after it finished celebrating that our toughest fighter was gone.

The neo-Marxists running the once honorable Democrat Party of FDR, Truman and JFK have done many un-American things. They attack parental rights, free speech, religious liberty, the Second Amendment right to protect your family, the right to assemble. The list goes on and on. (See below.)

Now they have done the most dangerous and un-American thing of all. They are waging a coordinated, relentless effort to smear the most popular Republican leader, hoping to deny him the GOP nomination by putting him in jail until he dies.

There is only one answer: Every conservative must redouble our efforts on every front of the battle!

Trump Responds

Donald Trump addressed reporters Thursday at the Atlanta airport after his booking at the Fulton County jail. He said:

“This is a really sad day for America. This should never happen. You should be able to challenge an election. I thought it was a rigged, a stolen election and I should have every right to do. As you know, you have many people you’ve been watching over the years do the same thing whether it’s Hillary Clinton or Stacey Abrams or many others…

"What has taken place here is a travesty of justice. We did nothing wrong. I did nothing wrong and everybody knows it… What they’re doing is election inference… There’s never been anything like it in our country before. This is their way of campaigning.”

Trump also returned to Twitter Thursday night, posting, “Election Interference. Never Surrender. DonaldJTrump.com.”

Meanwhile, Joe Biden brazenly posted this: “Apropos of nothing, I think today’s a great day to give to my campaign.”

Really? While his thugs are waging lawfare against the man he fears the most, and many Americans are sick over the Rubicon we have just crossed, Demented Joe thinks it’s a great day!

The Mug Shot

Oliver Anthony’s song, “Rich Men North of Richmond,” shocked the left when it shot up to the top of the charts. The mug shot of President Trump shows all signs of doing the same in the marketplace of political iconography.

No one knows what the future holds. But if Trump survives this and wins the presidency, you will see a million placards with that photo at his inauguration in January 2025.

If our constitutional Republic dies between now and then, and if the left succeeds in fundamentally transforming America, countless conservatives will secretly display that mug shot, waiting for the day when we can reclaim our liberty.

Either way, I predict Trump’s mug shot will have a purpose its perpetrators did not expect or intend.

Parental Rights Under Siege

For months now, a multi-ethnic, inter-faith coalition of parents has been battling the totalitarian leftists who dominate Montgomery County, Maryland. The conflict arose after the school board decided to force radical gender ideology into virtually every subject and grade level.

Christian and Muslim parents, as well as parents of other faiths and no faith at all, objected to the sexualization of children and wanted to opt their kids out of such indoctrination. The school board ignored them. So much for the party of “choice.”

All these parents want is to protect their children from being indoctrinated with ideas that run contrary to their faith. But the progressives who control the school board said, “No, you will bow to OUR ideas.”

The parents sued, but a Biden-appointed federal judge just spit in their faces and refused to issue a temporary injunction against the school board’s policy while the case is litigated in court.

This is a timely reminder that the neo-Marxist left is not looking for consensus or bipartisanship. It is committed to imposing its extreme ideas and values on all of us. And it will make life miserable for men and women of faith and anyone else who does not bow to the left’s extreme demands.

Triggered By The Truth

Several Democrats were evidently triggered by the truth after several Republican candidates exposed the left’s abortion-up-to-birth position during Wednesday’s debate.

Former Biden White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki tweeted, “No one supports abortion up until birth.” Former Senator Al Franken also opined on the issue.

Franken and Psaki are not stupid. They lied. They know the leftist media will never call them out for it. But they also know just how extreme and out-of-touch their position really is and they don’t want the American people to catch on.

Instead of exposing the left’s pro-abortion extremism, the left-wing media will accuse conservatives of being “conspiracy theorists” and “spreading misinformation” in order to censor the truth.

The same leftist politicians and pundits who are now saying, “No one supports abortion up to birth,” are the same leftist politicians and pundits who also told us, “Trump colluded with Russia,” “COVID came from a bat cave” and “Hunter Biden’s laptop is Russian disinformation.”

Again, the left’s impulse is totalitarian. It wants to tell you what to eat, what to drink, what to drive, where you can live, what to say and what to believe.

More Left-wing Lunacy

• The state official who delayed the release of water to Maui firefighters once suggested that we should “revere” water and that its use “requires conversations about equity.” Just another reminder that the left’s neo-Marxist agenda is deadly.
• The Green Energy boondoggles (and bankruptcies) are back!
• Biden is spending billions to secure Ukraine’s borders while leaving ours wide open. (We could have completed the border wall twice by now!)
• Biden’s environmental restrictions are making America dependent on Russia and helping to finance Putin’s war machine.
• Just when you think Disney couldn’t get any worse, it does. It’s partnering with a transgender influencer to promote girls’ clothing, except this “Minnie” is a man.
• The American Medical Association’s Journal of Ethics recently published an article calling for taxpayer-funded uterus transplants so trans women (men who claim to be women) can get pregnant.
