great post, Sasha! My sister informed me Trump is a racist. I asked her to send me some evidence. Everyday I wait expectantly by the mailbox. Still nothing.

I think we've all been aware of how blacks have been elevated over the years -- sometimes beyond their ability. I appreciate the clarity this article gives us -- showing how they're being used to shield white Leftists, and how identity politics has been used to help the Left avoid tackling REAL problems. An enormous lie, indeed. God, please help us. May the Democrat-Leftist house of cards come crashing down in November.

Superb article Sasha - since your journey from the grip of the Left, you have a perspective unlike anyone else.

I remember all too well how effective the Left was in manipulating the message from the days of the Vietnam War. We had young men risking their bodies, their lives to protect the South Vietnamese and we had the strident and very well-organized Left pushing a narrative that we were "interfering in a civil war" and we were "war criminals". The messaging came directly from the enemy and we were met with hatred when we got home. It took decades before we finally were seen as the good men that we were.

Lawfare will kill the US quickly and DEI will make sure we’re good and dead. I read an excellent (if long) article yesterday in (I think) the City Journal about DEI in medical schools and medicine and it’s terrifying, esp with the large current number of white elderly. Just the story of how they’ve removed racial differences in kidney transplants (when there are well established, critical, medical differences in kidney health criteria ) has resulted in thousands of white people who were critical and dying losing out on a kidney for not very sick black recipients.

On Trump and the lawfare, the left is bleeding blacks and Hispanics. Working under the radar in 2020 worked, thanks to the media is their pocket, but they are so far out in the open now that everyone but the 30% of far left (sorry Sasha) deranged white women and corporate America can see what’s happening. And corporate America is about to see a state seize property for an unprecedented victimless “crime” even before appeal. If that happens without judicial intervention, it can happen anywhere. Even red states can have crazy DAs our blue cities.

Of course, I have constantly thought “THIS will be a bridge too far” and people would wake up en masse, and it hasn’t happened yet. TBH I’m not that hopeful anymore.

“My biggest concern is that your view has the First Amendment hamstringing the government in significant ways in the most important time periods,”

-Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson

How is this woman a Supreme Court Justice?

How did this woman pass the BAR exam?

How did this woman pass law school?

How did even GET INTO law school?

These are all rhetorical questions.

Another knock it out of the park read by Sasha. They only get better which doesn’t seem possible, but they do.

I’ve been saying for a long time the Democrat Left has taken the lead as America’s #1 hate group. It is and they are.

We see the party of Bull Connor’s updated version of attack dogs sicced on those they despise when they threaten their lock on power. And total power is what they’re all about. It’s been said that evil lives in the weak and the wounded. The toxic Democrat Party has demonstrated it’s ability to ferret out such people to be used for their purpose. Letitia and Fanni are prime examples. There are many more.

Sasha you continue to articulate so precisely exactly what those of us that are still capable of reason and critical thinking are able to see. It so encouraging to me that you were so deeply embedded in woke ideology and was able to break free. I have some family that I have given up hope on convincing them they are on a path of destruction, we can’t even talk anymore. They are educated upper middle class and totally woke. You give me hope for them! Keep fighting Sasha!

I had read your posts previous to this. Listened to this one, and will do so from now on. You have a gift of bringing together past and present 🎁 in a long and wide view. Please keep on doing what you do. Much appreciated.

I've been clearly and loudly "cancelled" by a number of former friends because i was able to see anything good that Trump had done for America. And the reason is that Trump is a racist. And if you like him, then you are too. As you say, calling someone a racist is the most evil label the left can come up with. Meanwhile, under the control of the left, we have gigantic crime, murder, rape, child-sex trafficking...but that's ok...as long as one is not a racist. And they cannot even see this. I feel grateful that these former 'friends" exposed their true selves to me. Now i can concentrate on people who have value and values.

Chicago is being destroyed by city-wide black wilding, crime and carjacking, 24/7, at all hours of the day and night. Why is so little done to stop this? Because a serious crackdown on crime would have a “disparate impact” on blacks which would be considered racist and unacceptable. As bad as Chicago is though, Memphis is far worse and black leaders there are already saying it’s racist to even attempt to do so. And as always, the Democratic Party is on their side and supports them.

“If Memphis was its own Nation it would have been the most dangerous one on planet Earth in 2023.”

“The only Tennessee city tracked for the Wirepoints report, Memphis had a murder rate of 63.9 homicides per 100,000 people in 2023. A total of 397 homicides were reported in the city last year, up by 38 percent from 2022, when the city saw 288 homicides.”

“Memphis murder rate exceeded the murder rate of Chicago, which reported 23.2 murders per 100,000 people, and Philadelphia, which saw 26 murders per 100,000 people. The city also fared worse than cities with a similar or lower population, with the murder rate in Memphis also exceeding the murder rates of Baltimore, Detroit, and New Orleans.”

The Dems are going full banana republic this election cycle. Making up new legal theories to go after their opponents with 21st century spectral evidence and witch trials is not the rule of law. That is morally bankrupt corruption. Case closed.

Just remember folks: You're next. It is already starting with the Texas National Guard being overrun yesterday.

If you want to know the power of propaganda, ask yourself why everyone calls what happened with the 2008 financial crash/bailout a "crisis" rather than what it really is, a scandal.

Excellent post Sasha. You say out loud what everyone here knows to be true. Thank you!

Tick tock. Their tyranny will fall.
