A NATION IN MORNING

It is looking increasingly likely that the Supreme Court will be involved in this election. I hold little hope that they will do anything to stop what is clearly a systemic and coordinated attempt to steal this election for Joe Biden. I hope I am wrong about that, but fear I am not. It is easy under these circumstances to become depressed, but history provides important lessons that should not be ignored.

While the MSM is more than willing to pretend there is no problem here, they are fooling only themselves. The MSM has been exposed by this election and we should not ignore the significance of that. It is one thing to lie to us every night, we are used to that. We are used to the MSM spewing hatred and conspiracy theories about this President every hour of every day. We are used to the selective editing and gross distortion of every story. But up until now, they have least pretended to be reporting the news. Now, they are attempting to persuade us that what is obviously true is just an illusion. They, and only they, are capable of discerning reality. A reality that does not actually exist.

Sadly, some Republicans have joined in saying that Donald Trump is promoting wild conspiracy theories when he says that Democrats are trying to steal this election. They say there is no evidence of voter fraud. That is beyond absurd. Biden is ahead in Wisconsin because they are reporting voter turnout close to 90%, Do you believe that? Can anyone believe that? Are we to believe that the enthusiasm for a 77-year-old senile racist crook is so high that Americans have voted significantly higher than in any other election? The same candidate who hid in his basement and drew crowds so small he had to make some of the media covering the event pretend to be part of the crowd? Please!

Of course, the media did not cover that. They cut the TV feeds to prevent showing anyone how few people were showing up to see Biden. They refused to cover a story of blatant corruption by the Biden family that is well documented from credible sources. A scandal so monstrous that it should have immediately disqualified Joe Biden from any public office. How can you justify someone who even appears to have cut deals with Communist China, against the interests of his own country, to enrich his family? It literally does not get any worse than this, yet the media did not consider this story worthy of coverage. One must ask what would be important to them. Now we know. They are not interested in anything that conflicts with their narrative. Democrats are good, Republicans are bad, facts be damned. One would think that we have reached a new low point, from which recovery is impossible. But the opposite is true. It is exactly at moments like this that fundamental change takes place. Change that ultimately results in finally putting things back in order. There will be a cost to making that happen, but those who are promoting this fantasy have no clue regarding what has really happened.

After Pearl Harbor, when Admiral Yamamoto realized that Japan attacked without even declaring war, he said the following:  “I fear all we have done is awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve.” Sadly, it did take Pearl Harbor for the country to recognize the threat from Japan, but when that happened it set up a chain of events that resulted in the total and permanent defeat of the Japanese Empire.

But there is an even more important precedent, seldom taught in our schools, but ignored to our peril. In 1857 Frederick Douglas gave a major speech in response to the Dred Scott decision. One would be hard pressed to find a more irresponsible decision by the U.S. Supreme Court.  The Supreme Court let by Chief Justice Roger Taney ruled that slaves are not U.S. citizens and therefore had no right to sue in U.S. Courts. It looked like a bitter end to the abolitionist movement. But it was far from the end. Instead this decision exposed the evil of slavery to an extent that it mobilized a nation. Here is what Frederick Douglas said:

“You will readily asked me how I am affected by this devilish decision—this judicial incarnation of wolfishness.? My answer is, and no thanks to the slaveholding wing of the Supreme Court, my hopes were never brighter than now. I have no fear that the National Conscience will be put to sleep by such and open, glaring, and scandalous tissue of lies as that decision is and has been, over and over, shown to be. The Supreme Court of the United States is not the only power in this world. It is very great, but the Supreme Court of the Almighty is greater. Judge Taney can do many things, but he cannot perform impossibilities. He cannot bale out the ocean, annihilate the firm old earth, or pluck the silvery star of liberty from our Northern sky. He may decide and decide again; but he cannot reverse the decision of the Most High. He cannot change the essential nature of things—making evil good and good evil. Happily, for the whole human family, their rights have been defined, declared in a court higher than the Supreme Court.”

Douglas was right. The Dred Scott decision forced the nation to realize something vital. There was zero hope of compromising with those who had no interest other perpetuating evil. Prior to this time far too many people tried and failed to compromise with this evil. Even some abolitionists were supporting splitting the union apart and letting the Slave states fester in their own swamp. But the Dred Scott decision exposed the evil of slavery and it exposed those who tolerated it. Ultimately, the civil war was fought, at great cost, because people woke up regarding what was really at stake.

In March 1860 Abraham Lincoln spoke in Hartford, Connecticut opposing the spread of slavery. Five store clerks who had started a group called the Wide Awakes, decided to join a parade for Lincoln and gave him a torchlight escort back to his hotel. This turned into a nationwide movement where silent men marched. By October 1860, 10,000 Wide Awakes marched in a three-mile long procession. By the time of Lincoln’s election, there were 500,000 members.

I do not know who the next President of the United States will be. I pray it is Donald Trump. But I do know that a lot of people, far more than anyone can imagine, have been forced to confront the reality of the evil coalition of the MSM, the DNC and the Social Media Giants. A coalition lacking any moral conscience, willing to ignore the truth and tell fragrant and obvious lies to put a man, they know is totally unqualified in the White House. They are doing this because the lust for power has blinded them to reality. “Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.” Psalm 106.20

They are only fooling themselves. The stench of corruption in this election reaches the heavens. While the people are CNN may pretend not to notice, it is beyond obvious to everyone else. The blatant lies and distortion by the MSM have reached a level from which they can never recover. This is not about Donald Trump. It has never been about Donald Trump. It is about us. Evil is at our door and we can no longer pretend it is anything else.

I do not know where we go from here, but I know this. Those people who voted on November 3 voted for Donald Trump by a 2 to 1 margin. Those rallies for Donald Trump were no illusion. Neither were the spontaneous parades, across the country, eerily like the “Wide Awake” movement of 1860. Those people will not participate in silly protest and riots like those we saw in Portland. They will not participate in idiotic campaigns to inflict sports fans with social justice sermons based on wildly inaccurate reporting of events. This will also not be limited to Republicans. A lot of Democrats, even some who hate Donald Trump, are not blind to the reality of today. I firmly believe that once again a sleeping Giant has been awakened and it would be foolish to underestimate the amount of resolve.

Smart Democrats know they suffered a humiliating defeat last Tuesday. It is why there is already a civil war within the Democratic Party. Never again will this country pay any attention to political polls. Never again will we allow the MSM to tell us how or what to think. Never again will we allow our election process to be shredded by massive mail-in voting, with no controls. We will never forget the people who did this to us. The day of reckoning is closer than you think, regardless of who sits in the oval office.

Many of us are watching this, trying to suppress the despair. But, instead, like Frederick Douglas we should rejoice in the reality that evil, when fully exposed, can not survive. We are still the United States of America and the people who are gloating at the success of their heinous plot, which has not yet succeeded, have made an enormous mistake from which recovery is impossible. Ironically, the only thing that could save them would be the re-election of Donald Trump. But none of them are remotely capable of understanding that.

In the meantime we are a nation in morning, not mourning. Yes, we are unhappy, but we are also wide awake. It is the dawning of a new day..

  1. Depressed hardly describes my feelings. I am sick and afraid for the country. After all the brave lives given by our fathers to ensure freedom and a working democracy, We have already had one two-term President and VP try to destroy some of it! So it looks as if the same VP is going to get a second shot at trying to destroy our country as we know it! I weep for this country if he gets hi way to reduce the military, the police, and disarm the public. Socialism never has worked!!!!!!! Bill B
