𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗛𝗮𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗪𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁?Excerpts: "Until recently, the regime lacked the power to prosecute its political enemies. Today it has that power. The regime interferes with the legal system’s operation to advance its political goals,corruptingthe system in the process, even if the system functions normally when adjudicating non-political matters.""By analogy, the mainstream media is not always lying, but it is always advancing the regime’s interests. If ubiquitous propaganda is the consequence of the regime’s perversion of the media, lawfare is the consequence of its perversion of the legal system.Lawfareis the process by which the regime hijacks the legal system to win political struggles that it would lose in the political arena.""This is exactly what the current regime has done with Trump. The regime understands it will likely lose to Trump in the political arena, so it has recharacterized a political struggle in the political arena as a legal struggle in the legal arena—specifically, within the federal and state criminal justice systems. In other words, the regime has corrupted the criminal justice system by forcing it to resolve a non-criminal political dispute and to do so in a way that advances the regime’s political interests.""Notwithstanding this corruption, Trump has obeyed the legal system’s mandates and subjected himself to its processes. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, the regime accuses him of lawlessness. ... At its core, this propaganda is built on the lie that Trump threatens our form of government because he has the power to upend it. But he does not have that power. True, he has the support of tens of millions of Americans, but that support translates into power only within the structured framework of the electoral process—that is,withinour form of government, not outside of it. It’s nearly worthless otherwise.""Regime elites, conversely, don’t bother trying to earn your vote or persuade you of their innocence. Instead, they simply implement their will through the exercise of unrestrained power.""There are now only two paths forward: either the regime will solidify its power in November or Trump will be elected. If the former, we will descend further into the regime’s totalitarian grip. If the latter, unpleasant things will have to be done to hold people to account—people who attacked our constitutional republic by refusing to recognize limits on their exercise of power over us."by T J HarkerFull article: https://lnkd.in/eWg_fqVpThe American Mind

Often it was under threat of a subpoena that information was handed over.""The interim report accuses the NIAID of stonewalling and obfuscating Congressional investigations into the potentially lethal monkeypox research, describing the NIAID’s deceptive behavior as 'unacceptable and potentially criminal.'”by Maryanne DemasiCongressional report: https://lnkd.in/eHAjH7gUFull article: https://lnkd.in/e9teWWY4Brownstone Institute

𝗕𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻'𝘀 𝗛𝘆𝗽𝗲𝗿-𝗣𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗱 𝗗𝗢𝗝Excerpts: “No matter how much you may hate what the Department of Justice has become, it’s not nearly enough. On Monday the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Texas released a statement announcing the arrest of a 34-year-old surgeon.”“Dr. Ethan Haim’s crime was exposing the fact that Texas Children’s Hospital, the nation’s largest children’s medical facility, was secretly performing gender-affirming care on minors after the hospital claimed to have shut down the program.”“The hospital claimed to have discontinued these procedures after Gov. Greg Abbott, R-Texas, denounced and equated them to child abuse.”"Meanwhile, a second whistleblower has come forward with information that, if anything, is more damning against Texas Children’s Hospital.""Vanessa Sivadge, a registered nurse at the facility, confirmed Haim’s claims and added that the hospital was violating federal law by billing taxpayers through Medicaid for gender-affirming care.""Although she hasn’t been charged with a crime, her revelations prompted a visit from federal investigators."by MichaelDorstewitzhttps://lnkd.in/eZtjbmFNNewsmax

𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘅'𝘀 𝗨𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗽𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀"But Marx declined Engels's invitation to accompany him on a visit to a cotton mill, and, so far as we know, Marx never set foot in a mill, factory, mine or other industrial workplace in the whole of his life.""What is even more striking is Marx's hostility to fellow revolutionaries who had such experience - that is, working men who had become politically conscious. He met such people for the first time only in 1845, when he paid a brief visit to London, and attended a meeting of the German Workers' Education Society. He did not like what he saw. These men were mostly skilled workers, watchmakers, printers, shoemakers; their leader was a forester. They were self-educated, disciplined, solemn, well mannered, very anti-bohemian, anxious to transform society but moderate about the practical steps to this end. They did not share Marx's apocalyptic visions, and, above all, they did not talk his academic jargon. Heviewed them with contempt: revolutionary cannon-fodder, no more. Marx always preferred to associate with middle-class intellectuals like himself. When he and Engels created the Communist League, and again when they formed the International, Marx made sure that working-class socialists were eliminated from any positions of influence and sat on committees merely as statutory proles. His motive was partly intellectual snobbery, partly that men with actual experience of factory conditions tended to be anti-violence and in favor of modest, progressive improvements: they were knowledgeably skeptical about the apocalyptic revolution he claimed was not only necessary but inevitable. Some of Marx's most venomous assaults were directed against men of this type."~ Paul Johnson, 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘴 (1988)
