Democrats should fear ‘lawfare’ tactics
being turned against them

Former President Donald Trump is getting dragged through the courts via the “lawfare” charges manufactured against him — and seemingly millions of liberals and Democrats are ecstatic. Chaos, turmoil and pain such as this can feel exhilarating when it’s the other side’s ox being gored. But what happens if, in but a few short months, it is their ox being gored? Or they themselves? Will they cheer? Will they take to the streets in celebration? Of course not. They will scream out their innocence as they label the attacks “partisan” while demanding impartial justice. Unhinged partisan politics is quickly propelling our nation down the path of

Democrats have nothing to fear. The Department of Justice and the Soros district attorneys have their back.

They also target Dems who stray off the reservation a bit (Menendez and Cuellar). In the meantime Pelosi has amassed a fortune in excess of $100 million since entering Congress. The Bidens collect millions despite having no marketable products or expertise.

My thoughts exactly #1. Another naive (or stupid) article from The Hill. We also need both houses of congress to get anything accomplished. And RINOs removed. I fear we are doomed.

They should be concerned. But I doubt they will. Yeah, we all said "Lock her up" about Hillary in 2016. And maybe she should have been. But it would not have been a wise move for the democracy. Wiser heads prevailed. Sadly, the other side does not observe this as being truly concerned about preserving our "democracy" (actually a republic, but you get the idea). Somebody may have to be the "sacrifical lamb" of the left on this one. There certainly have been more than enough of us on the right (besides Pres Trump) who have paid the price in their freedom and their wallet. Maybe a few on their side need to feel our pain.

Lawfare is UNFOUNDED litigation. Those who bring it don't even care if they win. Their purpose is to hamstring Republicans and cost them financially. The longer it drags on, the better. If a corrupt judge actually allows a bogus conviction and assigns insane penalties it drags things on. Even if an appeal is launched and successful, it drags things out. There is no need to wage lawfare against dems. Dems have actually committed crimes that they can be tried for. What we need to do is roto rooter the DOJ & FBI to remove corrupt elements so true justice can flow. Just as a start, look at the J6 committee dems.

Lawfare will not be necessary because Joebama and the whole regime have actual crimes on their heads, including murder, false imprisonment and treason. My concern is the lack of courage and integrity on the part of republicans to actually call them out and prosecute. Too many jackals have already been forgotten or forgiven. Yes, you, Hillary.

PRO-Palestine protesters have sparked all-out fury after massing near the grounds of the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp during a Holocaust remembrance march. Demonstrators today rolled out Palestine flags and hoisted balloons as crowds gathered to remember Holocaust victims at the March of the Living in Poland. Police sirens wailed as protesters held "Stop genocide in Gaza" banners directed at groups donning Israeli flags. Witnesses reported that some of them were also "chanting" at march participants, to which Israelis answered with passages from the Jewish unity anthem "'Am Israel chai".

Men are abandoning the Democratic Party, and people are beginning to notice. This weekend, President Donald Trump’s super PAC Make America Great Again released an ad targeting black men in rural Georgia. It features a white, professionally dressed woman working a phone bank for President Joe Biden who talks to a male voice whose owner we never see. Here is the script: WHITE WOMAN: Hello, I’m with the Biden campaign. MALE VOICE: Yeah, yeah, I voted for Biden last time. WHITE WOMAN: That’s fantastic. MALE VOICE: Is it? Everything costs more: food, gas, rent. WHITE WOMAN: OK, but Biden’s helping pay rent for “newcomers” to America from around the world. MALE VOICE: You mean illegal immigrants?

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen last week warned that “threats to democracy” will imperil U.S. economic growth. Yellen’s admonishment is a less-than-veiled finger wag at former President Donald Trump and anyone who would dare question the official lie that the 2020 election was “one of the most secure elections in history.” The real threat to the economy is Joe Biden, his buffoonish treasury secretary, and the rest of the capitalism-crushing useful idiots in this dangerous administration. As Democrat Party public-relations firm the Associated Press reported, Yellen used “economic data” in her address Friday in Arizona to “paint a picture of how disregard for America’s democratic processes and institutions can cause

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) became the first elite institution to scrap diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) statements from its faculty hiring process. On Sunday, the school confirmed to UnHerd that it was removing a requirement that mandated all prospective faculty submit a diversity, equity and inclusion statement during the hiring process. A university spokesperson told Fox News Digital that "requests for a statement on diversity will no longer be part of applications for any faculty positions at MIT" and added that the decision was made by the school’s president, Sally Kornbluth, with the support of the Provost, Chancellor, and all six academic deans.

It is no secret that Donald Trump is a hot wire that either fires up the imagination of voters or fries the brain. For those of us who experience Trump as a Promethean bringer of enlightening fire to the dark barren fields of modern politics, it is hard to fathom the reaction of those who are terrified of him. We just say they have Trump Derangement Syndrome. But for those Trump haters, of course, it is the rest of us who are deranged. We are cult members or Christian nationalists or foot soldiers of the new Hitler. You cannot imagine more diametrically opposed views of one man.

Editor’s Note: The first step in winning a war is to recognize the fact that you are in one. This means, first and foremost, to come to know your enemy and his goals. In a recent essay for this site, Glenn Ellmers and Ted Richards of the Claremont Institute make a compelling case that the present enemy—the “woke” or group quota regime—is a totalitarian threat, and that its aims are nothing short of revolutionary. While our own troubles may seem far removed from the hard totalitarianism of the twentieth century, Ellmers and Richards argue that the six traditionally accepted elements of totalitarianism are already present in woke America.

Higher prices, a broken border, raging wars, violent campuses—is this what Joe Biden promised Americans four years ago? Quite the opposite: In his 2020 convention address, Biden said that he would lead America away from Donald Trump and toward "a different path," where "together" we would "take this chance to heal, to be reborn, to unite. A path of hope and light." Leave aside, for a moment, the garbled metaphors and syrupy language. Consider instead how far away America is from Biden's gossamer vision.

The Justice Department announced Friday that Rep. Henry Cuellar has been indicted over claims he took $600,000 in bribes between 2014 and 2021 from an Azerbaijani oil and gas company and a Mexican bank. Cuellar (D-Texas) and his wife, Imelda, were both charged and appeared in a Houston federal court for having allegedly participated “in two schemes involving bribery, unlawful foreign influence, and money laundering,” according to a DOJ press release. According to prosecutors, the Cuellars accepted the bribes through “shell companies” owned by Imelda from Socar, Azerbaijan’s state-owned oil firm, and “a bank headquartered in Mexico City.”

There is almost no subject the left won’t lie about. Whether it’s denying basic biology or fabricating “bloodbath” hoaxes about their top Republican rival, no topic is off limits for the Democrat “disinformation” police — and that includes elections. Since the 2020 election, Democrats and their media allies have worked overtime to smear Americans concerned about the integrity of U.S. elections. No matter how legitimate these concerns may be, the left slanders anyone who challenges controversial elections won by Democrats as so-called “election deniers.”

Andrew Dudum, who founded Hims in 2017, said anti-Israel campus protesters are making a difference and drew a contrast to other executives who have said the antisemitic demonstrations have made those involved in campus protests unemployable. "Moral courage > College degree," Dudum wrote on X. "If you're currently protesting against the genocide of the Palestinian people & for your university's divestment from Israel, keep going. It's working."

American men are opting out of the workforce at unforeseen rates. For many, it's not an issue of not being able to find a job. They have simply opted out altogether. The Bureau of Labor Statistics found only 89 percent of working age men have a job or are actively looking for work. In 1950, that number was at 97 percent. While the early 1950s saw around 96 percent of working age American men between the ages of 25 and 54 working full or part-time jobs, that proportion has now moved to just 86 percent, according to the Bureau of

The CEO of Hims has walked back his support of anti-Israel campus protesters after the male hair loss company's stock dropped by 10 percent amid a boycott sparked by his comments. Andrew Dudum, who identifies as Palestinian-American, last week sparked uproar by offering jobs to the campus protesters at Columbia and other schools. Share holders sold off their positions and customers canceled their subscriptions in a boycott that tanked the company's value. On Sunday night, Dudum took to X to 'clarify' his comments, toning down his full-throated support after a wave of backlash.

DEI has infiltrated our American military like a deadly toxin, making it incapable of defending our shores or our country. The higher-ups in the American armed forces have somehow succumbed to a racist philosophy that recruits, promotes, hires, and rewards black, brown, and Hispanic members at the expense of white people, who need not apply. Word is out: White people will not be hired or promoted according to merit, nor will they even be allowed to function the way other races function so long as DEI has a branch in the Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, or any other American defense mechanism.
