To Mask or Not to Mask? The Degenerate Mind of the Left

The leftists like tossing around the Hitler moniker, when what they are doing is projecting who they are upon others.

There are times when I wonder if there will be material for which I can comment weekly. And then I laugh and just wait for the stuck on stupid progressive socialist leftists to open their mouths. They never seem to let me down, and here we have a new item of folly which evidences their abjectly degenerate mind, as if that was not already apparent.

It appears that two deranged Marxist Senators, masked as members of the Democrat party, Cory “Spartacus” Booker and Alex Padilla, are introducing legislation to force ICE/CBP agents to have legible and identifiable identification badges. This reminds me of the line from the 1948 film The Treasure of Sierra Madre. Humphrey Bogart demands that the Mexican bandits show him their badges. The response was, “Badges? We ain’t got no stinking badges. We don’t need no badges. I don’t have to show you any stinking badges!” Perhaps the criminal illegal immigrants that our ICE and CBP agents are working to remove can relate.

But, it is the other aspect of their insidious piece of legislation that is clearly indicative of the degenerate mind of the leftists. They are demanding that ICE/CBP agents not wear masks. Now, if this were not so serious, it would be utterly laughable. The same folks who were demanding, under penalty and fine, that Americans wear masks, and some still are, now want to ban masks? As well, when did masks become so threatening? After all, it appears that if you are wearing a mask and are a member of the domestic terrorist group, Antifa, that is perfectly fine.

If you are wearing a mask to cover and conceal your identity while burning down police precincts, neighborhoods, and federal buildings, that is a “peaceful protest”.

If you are wearing a mask (kaffiyeh) like Islamic terrorists, and waving the flag of an Islamic terrorist organization, Hamas, that is totally acceptable, as you burn the American flag. They call that freedom of expression.

If you are on a college campus wearing a mask in order to threaten, intimidate, and foment violence against a certain race of people, well, the progressive socialist left is just cool with that…no big deal.

If you want to set cars on fire and drop cinder blocks on police cars, go right ahead and wear a mask.

But if you want to protect yourself and your family from attacks from these people, domestic leftist insurrectionists, by wearing a mask, well, Sparty and Padilla, along with the other useful idiots, think that is wrong. And consider this, instead of introducing legislation for ICE/CBP officers to unmask, why haven’t these mindless leftist lemmings masquerading as elected officials condemned the violence that their rhetoric is causing? Doggone Colonel, cut it out, you are making too much sense and asking Marxists not to be, well, Marxists.

I live in Texas, and ponder what just happened in the Lone Star State. One of the inspired little insurrectionists opened fire on a Homeland Security annex in McAllen, Texas. He has gone to meet not his maker, but the author of confusion and evil, Satan. In Alvarado, Texas, just an hour from where I live in Garland, 12 individuals executed an ambush on the Prairieland Detention Facility, shooting a law enforcement officer in the neck. As of this writing, 11 have been apprehended, and there is a massive manhunt for the 12th assailant. These individuals were donning tactical gear; classic insurgency.

But why are Sparty and Padilla not addressing this?

Simple, the leftists like tossing around the Hitler moniker, when what they are doing is projecting who they are upon others. Hitler used his SA, the vicious thugs known as the “Brown Shirts,” to implement fear and intimidation. Today’s National Socialists in America have enabled their own version of Brown Shirts, masked, armed, and conducting violence to the same ends. As Border Czar Tom Homan articulated, attacks against ICE, federal law enforcement officers, have risen by 700%, with not a peep from chuckleheads like Ocasio-Cortez, Brandon Johnson, Karen Bass, or the others who are fully supportive of this deliberate insurgency. We have the walking advertisement for Ozempic and Wegovy, Stacey Abrams, asserting publicly that ICE agents are kidnapping people off the streets. Perhaps we should dump all the murderers, rapists, child sex predators, spouse abusers, and terrorists at her doorstep?

The leftist solution? Demonize the brave Americans, men and women, who are out there to provide safety and security for all Americans.

There is no debate about it, we can never allow these degenerates to have electoral power in our America. For four years, they were silent as our national sovereignty was unconstitutionally violated. Now, when law and order is being restored, instead of applauding those efforts, they demonically assault our law enforcement officers and agencies, as well as support violence against them. Sounds a lot like sedition to me. Our law enforcement officers, ICE, CBP, and local Sheriffs and police, must protect themselves and their families. When you have crazed leftists like the Mayor of Nashville, Tennessee, enabling the “doxxing” of law enforcement officers, they should be held accountable.

The degenerate mind of these leftists unlawfully created a domestic and national security issue for our Republic. Now, they seek to exacerbate the issue by attacking the law-abiding men and women trying to clean up their freaking mess.

That, my dear true American friends, is what they call FUBAR!

Steadfast and Loyal.
