The war, started by the establishment, ramped up when Trump arrived on the political scene in late 2015. Trump's nascent America First movement was, quite correctly, perceived as what's fashionably termed an existential threat. It's been a hot cold war ever since, and it promises to grow hotter and nastier in the coming days.
With each passing day, Biden's and Democrats' failures become more apparent and painful to average Americans. The economy is shaky; inflation and energy costs will resume rising. Crime spikes in big cities. Woke and sexual indoctrination of schoolkids is meeting with growing backlashes. Democrats' police state gambits repel people who'd otherwise take a pass on politics. Their sheer incompetence, serial failures, and tyrannical overreach are undercutting their authority. So Democrats and the establishment are afraid and anxious.
Desperation will drive establishment factions to more and, perhaps, even greater acts of illegally and shows of force — or worse. After all, the ends justify the means.
Andy Ngo reports that the deceptively named "Inflation Reduction Act" authorizes 87,000 IRS hires, who will carry guns and "use deadly force, if necessary." The IRS is being transformed into an armed intimidation racket.
An IRS armed to the teeth is yet another sign that the establishment is stumbling. Biden's regime has spent an estimated $5–6 trillion in less than two years. There appears no end to the profligacy — which primarily benefits the establishment and allied factions. This militant IRS will be tasked with squeezing every penny it can out of all Americans, not just the rich. Guns at the ready underscore the point.
The war being waged is for all the marbles. Harvard law degrees, M.D.s, Ph.D.s, and Wharton MBAs weren't obtained by progressives to allow common folk to have any say in the nation's welfare and future. Seats on corporate boards entitle. Tech firms, amalgamated, are All-Powerful Oz. The Constitution? Window-dressing. Federalism? What's that? The Bill of Rights? To be defined by tenured leftist academics. In fact, elites, in their crimped minds, assume the right to dictate all aspects of our lives — and we'd damn well better like it.
If we don't, slap-downs follow. We're deemed deniers and slandered as insurrectionists and tarred as racists. We're worker bees here to tend the hive. Shut up and take what comes our way and smile. If not, the elite will impose penalties. Communist China's social credit system is the hoped-for import. It's a creepy, comprehensive, technology-driven system of oppression. Progressives love it...as many perversely love Mao, Lenin, and Stalin. The imperative is defeating these lovers of tyranny before they fully weaponize technology to crush us.
