On Wednesday, the votes were taken in the Senate on what was termed the Biden Border Bill and it fell by a vote of 49 yeas to 50 nays, with 60 votes necessary for passage. The bill is definitely dead. And yet…

It may appear to the public that the bill which lost was just a necessary fix to the accidental mismanagement of the border by a wrinkled idiot of a president, who has lost his marbles. Actually, it was an attempt to legalize a deeply designed unconstitutional project of the Democrat Party to create a majority in the next election using illegal aliens to outweigh the votes of conservative citizens. Let’s put this into context.

One of the first actions of the Biden Administration on taking office, in January 2021, was to issue Executive Order 14019 very quietly, undercover as it were, which directs all of the Administrative State’s executive agencies to work together with left-leaning non-profit organizations, principally in urban areas, to expand the Democrat Party voter base. That means millions of government employees are being paid by taxpayers to actively work to help one political party to political power at the expense of all the others. Does anyone believe that is in keeping with the spirit of our form of government?

At the same time the directive was issued, the Biden Administration, in a clear dereliction of its constitutional duty to defend our southern border and in a clear dereliction of its constitutional responsibility to execute our laws pertaining to immigration, effectively opened our borders and allowed the illegal entry of between 11 and 15 million aliens who have dispersed to the distant ends of the continent, while concentrating in urban areas, near left-leaning non-profit organizations, which work with our federal agencies. 

At the same time, states such as Pennsylvania have made it a requirement that when one gets a driver’s license, they also get registered to vote. They say, of course, that they run background checks on all of those who are being issued driver’s licenses. Does anyone believe that they are doing such background checks in Philadelphia or Pittsburgh?

Meanwhile, more polling stations have taken to using digital voting methods rather than using the time-honored method of paper balloting. The reason is to avoid having a paper trail in case a polling station is audited to ensure that a fair count is made. Paper ballots allow opposition parties to audit the vote counts and check voter registrations. And newer machines are being approved for use, which are capable of being hacked.

And lest we forget, the democrats used the COVID crisis to impose their will in many areas of our society, to the point of dictating that certain “medicines” be injected into our veins. They also opened a whole new method of balloting outside balloting stations entirely, opening the opportunity for ballot harvesting on an industrial scale. 

And for how many years now has the Democrat Party been pushing in every state in the union to widen the window of time to vote? They have pushed to extend the time to vote and to count the vote as far as they can… There is a little-known history outside of Chicago, that on election night, November 6 1960, Democrat Party officials phoned Mayor Richard Daley in the toss up state of Illinois in a panic. They demanded the Mayor do what was necessary to bring in more votes, even though it was very late in the day. The Mayor said he only had one question: “How many votes do you need?” The Democrat Party is an old hand at coming up with the votes they need, and with more time, it makes the crime easier.

‘How much of a harvest is necessary?’ ‘How many ballots do you need?’  ‘Whatever the number to overturn a conservative Republican victory!’ ‘No problem, we just found another sack of votes in Philadelphia…don’t worry, they were vetted, they had licenses, ha, ha, ha!’

The constitutional derelictions of duty and responsibility exercised, in addition to all of the other crimes Democrats are committing against our Constitution, are part of a deep, comprehensive design to take away the dearest constitutional right we have as United States citizens, the right to determine who governs us and makes the laws we are to live by – that is Freedom 101.

It reminds of what our founders said about human nature: no one gives up power voluntarily or easily – ever.  And it is why, in the whole of human history, there have been so few governments that come to power as determined by the people.

What an enormous effort our fellow citizens, these Democrats, go through to pre-determine that they themselves will never be out of power…  From secretive executive orders, to disregarding our laws, to opening our borders, our states and our cities to aliens, to allowing all manner of voting methods, to allowing vote harvesting for as long as it takes to amount to the right vote! 

What an insufferable lot of labor and cost of taxpayer dollars, even for Democrats, who never saw a trillion dollars they couldn’t spend over a lobbyist lunch!  

Wouldn’t it be much easier for the Democrat Party just to charge their political opponents with fictional crimes and throw them in jail? That is what every other unrespecting, self-empowering tyrannical government does…
