Dear Patriot,
The Supreme Court has issued several very important rulings against the left’s lawfare to stop President Trump and limit presidential power under the Constitution. This is good news and absolutely necessary to preserve the republic.
At every turn, we are fighting a war for America. These rulings are overall victories, but we are concerned the rulings were 5-4.
We are seeing the radical left becoming more and more deranged in their echo chamber of cable news and bought and paid for media.
Today, we go a little deeper into this psychosis. This is an important subject that we want you all to be aware is happening. Please share.
Jonathan Turley discusses the Age of Rage
The Dems double down on their insanity because they have nothing else.
A recent study showing leftist think political violence is justified.
How the left makes you think you are the bad person.
BUT, first we start with some recent comments from our subscribers.
1- Well, gee, thanks mom!
Just kidding.
Honest, we do not pay people to write nice comments!
But, we all do appreciate your many kind and encouraging notes.
Note from subscriber L.H.:
Sidney Powell and Defending the Republic email has been a source of information that helped keep my spirits up in the darkest times since Covid.
Sidney has been an inspiration for standing up for truth and has been a heroine in her fight for truth in elections. I have bought her book for myself and friends whom I thought might really want to know the truth.
Your prayers have been helpful to keep myself going in the right direction and I believe the result is that many of us are praying for divine intervention and for President Trump. I also keep Sidney Powell in my prayers.
God bless you all for this valuable information. I never miss reading them and forward to others. I also post some to my facebook page and my facebook group page. Thanks. God bless.
Note from D.L :
Today's newsletter is another fascinating issue. Keep up the great work! Well worth the subscription fee.
2- We are watching this trend closely and are concerned that the violence we have already seen will escalate. We warn you all to stay calm and out of the way of people being hyped up by the Drive By Media and radical Democrat politicians into thinking their unhinged behavior is justified.
The American Jacobin: How Some on the Left have Found Release in an Age of Rage
Note from Turley: Below is my column in the Hill on the rising political violence on the left. Many have found an irresistible release from both reason and responsibility in rage. A new study found more people embracing political violence. Joel Finkelstein, the lead author of the report, stated that “what was formerly taboo culturally has become acceptable… We are seeing a clear shift – glorification, increased attempts and changing norms – all converging into what we define as ‘assassination culture.’” Roughly 40 percent reportedly found it somewhat justifiable to burn a Tesla or even to kill Donald Trump.
Here is a snip from the column. Go to link for more:
QUOTE: “We should replace our piece of crap Constitution.” Those words from author Elie Mystal, a regular commentator on MSNBC, are hardly surprising from someone who previously called the Constitution “trash” and urged not just the abolition of the U.S. Senate but also of “all voter registration laws.”
But Mystal’s radical rhetoric is becoming mainstream on the left, as shown by his best-selling books and popular media appearances.
There is a counter-constitutional movement building in law schools and across the country. And although Mystal has not advocated violence, some on the left are turning to political violence and criminal acts. It is part of the “righteous rage” that many of them see as absolving them from the basic demands not only of civility but of legality.
They are part of a rising class of American Jacobins — bourgeois revolutionaries increasingly prepared to trash everything, from cars to the Constitution.
The Jacobins were a radical group in France that propelled that country into the worst excesses of the French Revolution. They were largely affluent citizens, including journalists, professors, lawyers, and others who shredded existing laws and destroyed property. It would ultimately lead not only to the blood-soaked “Reign of Terror” but also to the demise of the Jacobins themselves as more radical groups turned against them.
Of course, it is not revolution on the minds of most of these individuals. It is rage.
Rage is the ultimate drug. It offers a release from longstanding social norms — a license to do those things long repressed by individuals who viewed themselves as decent, law-abiding citizens.
Across the country, liberals are destroying Tesla cars, torching dealerships and charging stations, and even allegedly hitting political dissenters with their cars.
Last week, affluent liberal shoppers admitted that they are shoplifting from Whole Foods to strike back at Jeff Bezos for working with the Trump administration and moving the Washington Post back to the political center. They are also enraged at Mark Zuckerberg for restoring free speech protections at Meta.
Democratic leaders see these “protests” as needed popularism to combat Trump — to make followers “strike ready” and “to stand up and fight back.”
For a politician, a mob can become irresistible if you can steer it against your opponents. The problem is controlling the mob once it has broken free of the bounds of legal and personal accountability.
