Dana Nessel, Michigan’s Democratic Attorney General, announced today that she is pursuing felony chargers against the individuals who claimed to be Trump electors from the state in the 2020 election.
Among those charged are the head of the Republican National Committee’s chapter in Michigan, Kathy Berden, as well as the former co-chair of the Michigan Republican Party, Meshawn Maddock, and Shelby Township Clerk Stan Grot.
The average age of the electors is early 70s. Each is being charged with 8 felonies which range from a maximum of 5 to 14 years in prison. If convicted, all of these individuals will die in prison. Their crime? Claiming that they were the lawful electors from the state of Michigan in documents sent to Congress and the National Archives after the 2020 election. For this, they are being charged with multiple counts of election fraud, forgery, and conspiracy.
This is an utterly absurd and vicious political prosecution. The pro-Trump slate of electors was ignored by Congress. There was no fraud. These patriotic Michigan citizens argued, correctly, that Trump won the state of Michigan. In 2020, Jocelyn Benson, Michigan’s Secretary of State, illegally sent absentee ballot applications to every voter in Michigan.
The relevant statute, MCL 168.759(3), states clearly that only the voter is allowed to ask for a mail-in ballot application. The SoS ignored the law and in doing so cast the legitimacy of the entire election into doubt. Mail-in ballots are not trustworthy. There is no way to ensure that the person who is supposed to fill out the ballot in fact did so. Shotgunning mail-in ballot applications across the state destabilized our state elections beyond the tipping point.
Trump garnered enormous crowds when visiting the Michigan. The landscape was dotted with Trump flags and yard-signs. Biden never generated that kind of support—here or elsewhere. Not even close. The idea he won the election is spurious on its face, to say nothing of the outright corruption perpetrated by state officials in 2020.
The 16 Michigan citizens being prosecuted are patriots. It is Jocelyn Benson and Dana Nessel who should be charged with fraud and conspiracy instead.
But we live in clown world. Leftists get off on accusing their enemies of doing what they are in fact guilty of. They love to rub it in their faces. The ritual humiliation is part of the fetish.
I know Meshawn Maddock, one of the accused. Her husband, Matt, is a member of the state legislature and vocal member of the pro-Trump wing. That makes her the second person I know personally who is being illegitimately targeted by the vicious and tyrannical regime which governs this country.
The other is John Eastman, Donald Trump’s lawyer, who argued compellingly in 2020 that Vice President Pence had the power to reject illegitimate slates of electors. I know Eastman and his family well. The ongoing attempt to destroy his life—by disbarring him and throwing him in prison—for providing legal advice to the President of the United States is cruel and disgusting.
On Twitter, I ran in much of the same circle as Douglass Mackey (aka Ricky Vaughn), a poster who is being prosecuted by the federal government over a joke he cracked online.
Political repression isn’t some far off fear to me. It is already happening to people I know and care about. It will only get worse.
The Left dominates every institution in American life. Every Fortune 500 company, every government agency (including the military), every major religious domination—all of them are on the same team.
These prosecutions are only the beginning of the political repression in store for the American right. How many times will Joe Biden say he will fight his domestic enemies with nuclear weapons before you get that he isn’t joking? In the minds of those who are in power, if you voted for Trump, you are an extremist and a fascist.
In the words of Joe Biden, those who do not support transgender surgery for minors are anti-semites. During WWII, the American government fire-bombed women and children for having an anti-semitic government. Do you really think they wouldn’t do it again?
If the federal government charged me with multiple made-up felonies, no one in power would come to my defense. If the feds sent in SWAT to murder me in my sleep, no mainstream Republican would bat an eye. All Joe Biden and his minions need to do is invoke the magic words “white supremacist/racist/Nazi/etc.” and the conservative cowards shut their mouths and turn away.
At this point, I fully expect Donald Trump to go to prison. He’s likely going to be indicted and arrested by the J6 grand jury in DC this week—the third such illegitimate prosecution.
I expect the same fate for Eastman, the Michigan 16, and Douglass Mackey. Same for Daniel Penny. This regime is out for blood, and right now, it seems certain that they are going to get it.
Conservatives still believe that politics is about winning arguments in the “marketplace of ideas.” The Left, by contrast, correctly understands our public square as a battlefield. They are at war with the American people and do not pretend otherwise.
Since 1933, America has been an occupied country, governed by a ruling class that hates the nation’s older way of life. Since FDR, America has been on the side of the global revolutionary Left. This is why FDR’s administration was filled with communists and the American government gave $300 billion to the USSR in its existential war of survival against the fascists. America did not remain neutral in that conflict because the American ruling class has always been on the side of the godless communist horde.
I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news. If the myth of the 20th century is critical for your own self-identity, there isn’t much I can do for you. Go back to your 401(k), fantasy football league, and cable television. NFL.com and pornhub are always a click away.
To those with ears to hear and eyes to see, the COVID lockdowns, the transgender insanity, BLM riots, and the 2020 coup against President Trump reveal the truth. The communists didn’t collapse with the fall of the Berlin War. Instead, the revolution came here.
America was not fighting for freedom and democracy in the Cold War. That struggle was instead a conflict between two factions of the global Left, over which one would exert planetary dominance. The feminist, anti-racist, homosexual faction won out over the Marxist-Leninists. We got pride flags instead of the hammer and sickle, not that there is much difference between the two.
In reality, there has been no real American right-wing since 1941, when the America First movement imploded. Trump was the first real attempt to undo the post-war consensus since at least Nixon. Look how they hate him! What Trump did was de facto illegal. America is not allowed to be a real nation with real borders and a real economy. That is why they had to coup Trump out of office—for simply suggesting that America should have those things.
There is no way out of this mess but through. Anyone who aspires to higher office on the Right needs to understand the stakes involved. If you fail, you will go to prison. Period. The odds of successfully prevailing against the planetary consensus in favor of the rule of scum is not good.
Those are the stakes of my own writing. The options are irrelevancy or repression. If I gain the audience I seek and spread the message I believe in, there is a very strong likelihood I end up in prison or worse.
The time to prepare is now.
People ask me all the time what they can do to prepare for the troubles ahead. I answer: steal yourself. Prepare to suffer. Harden your heart. Harden your body. You aren’t going to make it if you believe that this regime will let you cash out your retirement account in peace.
As for those who would lead the American Right of the future: If you aren’t ready to risk everything, up to your very life, you have no business seeking that mantle. You must be ready to roll the dice in the moment of decision. Nothing else will suffice.
The global Left is not all powerful. There is a possibility of victory. The global rule of scum is not inevitable, nor can it be permanent. Bu there is no way out of our contemporary crisis without struggle, without pain, and without sacrifice.
Prepare yourself now while you still have time.
I was just talking with my wife about slashing our 401k contributions and putting it in gold and silver instead. Something awful is coming and everyone but boomers realize it. I don't want my nest egg expropriated by the state as reparations or some such pretext, leaving my children destitute.
"During WWII, the American government fire-bombed women and children for having an anti-semitic government."
That's a striking take.
