Glenn Youngkin is Terry McAuliffe’s Republican opponent in the Virginia gubernatorial election. As his bus pulled into an event in Virginia Beach on Fri. the 29th, it was greeted by five individuals chanting their support while displaying all the characteristics of “white supremacists.” Indeed they carried the same Tiki torches so prevalent at the 2017 Charlottesville rally which the media characterized as a Neo-Nazi event. That same media, of course, waxed apoplectic at the racism of Youngkin’s supporters, as did a spokesperson for the McAuliffe campaign.
But, it turns out, two of the five have official ties to the Democratic Party while the other three are renowned Trump haters. Ironically validating the tawdriness of the stunt, Virginia’s Democratic Party declared it had had nothing to do with it. But simple, inarguable fact: The sanctimonious Left is so convinced of the nobility of its cause, so convinced that mindless empathy outweighs common sense, so convinced that skin color preempts morality, so convinced that all “conservatives” are heartless bastards, so convinced that there is no other point of view than their own, that they have been caught week after week lying outrageously and resorting to some truly nefarious tactics in the pursuit of their sacred goals.
While investigations are ongoing in various states regarding the conduct of the 2020 presidential election which was marked by some bizarre statistical anomalies, and dozens of individuals have come forward with disturbing tales of the handling of Republican voters and their ballots, the snide, condescending response of the mainstream media [i.e., 95% of the media] has been to dismiss any suggestion of voting improprieties as a product of the egomaniacal Mr. Trump’s “big lie.”
The pretense of those on the sanctimonious Left that they would never dream of rigging an election, never dream of violating their “democratic” principles, is preposterous. If access to the truth is essential to a healthy, functioning Democracy, the media’s insistence on submitting every syllable uttered by Donald Trump to excoriating mockery while more or less ignoring Biden’s corrupt relationship with his corrupt son and never so much as mentioning his 1988 run for his party’s presidential nomination which was marred by multiple examples of his propensity for lying and plagiarizing, makes it, the media, a major contributor to the dysfunction of contemporary political discourse in the U.S.. But even more pernicious than the media’s refusal to report the whole truth is the Left’s corruption of basic American institutions which by their very nature were intended to be above politics.
In May of 2021 Dinesh D’Souza posted a piece exposing the way in which the FBI had been corrupted by Barack Obama who, for brazenly political reasons, had used it in an attempt to destroy Trump’s run for the presidency. Examples of the Left’s perversion of the justice system to further its own ends are too numerous to mention. D’Souza cites how unarmed individuals guilty of little more than trespassing on Jan. 6 have been hunted down relentlessly by Biden’s department of justice and treated as violent insurrectionists while thousands of those who have inflicted billions of dollars in damage on America’s cities over the last 18 months, a good deal of it on the private businesses of those they pretend to support, have been charged with absolutely nothing. It is a disgrace worthy of Soviet Russia and Communist China.
Obviously the results of the presidential election, whatever the findings of the various State inquiries into its legitimacy, are not about to be overturned. No sane person would hope otherwise as it would surely result in civil war. But protocols designed to insure fair elections in the future must be reinforced in spite of the Left’s hypocritical insistence that all efforts to achieve that end are racist in intent. As to the belief of a good many Trump supporters that the results of election day 2016 were tainted, this recent effort in Virginia to smear the reputation of its Republican gubernatorial candidate is but the latest of literally hundreds of examples of the willingness of the “social justice” warriors of the Left and their media minions to resort to every duplicity imaginable in the pursuit of their fanatical religious agenda. And yet, they would have us believe, they would never dream of rigging an election!
