“Leftists can\u2019t name & blame specific individuals for the 2024 loss because they\u2019re an undifferentiated blob who function unconsciously according to enmeshed group think.” <\/em><\/p>\n

– Aimee Therese on X<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In all the chatter about the Democratic Party\u2019s 2024 election \u201cautopsy\u201d report<\/strong> you might have missed one little important detail: autopsies are generally performed on the dead. Stephen Colbert\u2019s final week on CBS\u2019s\u00a0Late Night Show\u00a0<\/em>was the funeral.<\/strong> It was like the zombies\u2019 ball. Poster-boy old Bruce Springsteen plugged a self-parody song about \u201cKing Trump\u201d that might have been a rare case of career suicide on live TV.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Kings, indeed.<\/strong> These showbiz cretins actually have it better than kings \u2014 they have all the money, glitz, and adoration, but none of the onerous duties of real royalty. They amount to a weird court of effete elitists endlessly congratulating each other on their moral superiority, and that\u2019s where it begins and ends: a Cluster-B hall of mirrors.<\/p>\n

Of the common good, the know absolutely nothing. Nobody believes their tired buzzwords anymore<\/strong>: \u201cOur democracy\u201d . . . \u201cconspiracy theories\u201d . . . \u201cbaseless\u201d this and that. . . their foolish vaccine worship. . . their avatars, the guffawing baboon Kamala Harris, the erstwhile phantom \u201cJoe Biden,\u201d and, most of all, their good sportsmanship trophy, Barack Obama, last seen confabbing with Canada\u2019s Mark Carney, Globalism\u2019s paladin of the last resort.<\/p>\n

The Lefty-left\u2019s heroes are on-the-run,<\/strong> but tripping over each other badly as they scatter into the thickets to re-group for the midterm elections \u2014 which they are suddenly and seemingly likely to lose now that SCOTUS erased about a dozen race-based congressional districts . . . and then Virginia\u2019s Supreme Court tossed Governor Spanberger\u2019s ballot ploy to make the Old Dominion a one-party state (like back in slavery days).<\/p>\n

The corpse of the Democratic Party might be dead, but not a few of its agents, cells, and parasitical organisms are \u2018out there\u2019 still twitching and plotting. The decade-long coup abides. The lawfare ninjas \u2014 Norm Eisen, Mary McCord, Marc Elias, et al. \u2014 still plot tirelessly behind the scenes, rigging up evermore legalistic chicanery disguised as legality, and they are rolling in dough from Soros, the Tides Foundation, Neville Roy Singham, and countless NGOs dedicated to overthrowing the republic.<\/p>\n

The coup abides for two reasons: <\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

1) its players are desperate to evade prosecution for their vast and various crimes of the past ten years (and prosecution is coming at them down the track like the old Union Pacific US-4 \u201cDaylight\u201d locomotive); and <\/em><\/p>\n

2) the Democratic Party is desperate to preserve the revenue flows that support all its racketeering operations. Without its rackets, the money funnel to pay off its countless \u201coppressed\u201d client-constituent-victims, there is no party. That\u2019s all it was in its final stage of life.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Minnesota, of course, is the case-study for that kind of corruption and now the DOJ is going after the place hard,<\/strong> announcing fifteen new prosecutions this week for $90-million in Medicaid fraud, \u201cjust the beginning,\u201d the lead US attorney, Colin McDonald, said. California, Illinois, New York, Maine, and many more states await the same treatment under the president\u2019s new National Fraud Enforcement Division. The Democrats will go into the midterms revealed to be nothing more than a looting operation.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s happening in real time. Just yesterday, one particular public benefits entrepreneur, Aimee Bock, was sentenced to forty years in prison for running a Minneapolis scam called Feeding Our Future that made off with $243-million in taxpayer money. At sentencing, Aimee Bock was ordered to pay roughly $243 million in restitution. That\u2019s a hoot, isn\u2019t it? Federal inmates (Bureau of Prisons) are paid from 12-cents to $1.15 per hour wages for assigned work, depending on the type of job. Forty years might not be enough to git\u2019er done.<\/p>\n

Many more will be going down in the months ahead for similar shenanigans, and the voting public might notice as it rolls out.<\/strong> But fraudsters such as Aimee Bock are mere lumpen foot-soldiers in the regime. The more spectacular action will be the Democratic Party\u2019s field marshals getting nailed, and that\u2019s hardly begun. Coup Central is the Southern District of Florida where a \u201cgrand conspiracy\u201d case, or possibly many cases and sub-cases, are already in the grand jury stage \u2014 meaning\u00a0probable cause<\/em>\u00a0has been established en route to indictments. Many political celebrities labored hard since 2017 to overthrow the executive branch of the government. Hair is on fire everywhere you look.<\/p>\n

One small fish was reeled in this week: one Carmen Mercedes Lineberger, a senior supervisory US attorney, indicted on two felony counts of mishandling evidence from \u201cspecial prosecutor\u201d Jack Smith\u2019s botched Mar-a-Lago documents case. She labeled the purloined docs in her personal computer as dessert recipes (e.g., \u201cbundt cake\u201d) en route to leaking them. Lineberger has pleaded innocent. Don\u2019t doubt that a negotiated plea deal is in play with her, and that Jack Smith will be sweating the outcome of that as Lineberger flips and talks.<\/p>\n

But the odious Jack Smith will only be one of many bigger fish turning up in the Fort Pierce dragnet, probably including the whale, Barack Obama, the president who foolishly tried to destroy his successor-in-office. <\/strong>You may know that the DOJ observes an unwritten custom of not issuing indictments inside sixty days of an election (a custom that Jack Smith violated in 2024 when he issued a superseding indictment against candidate Donald Trump). So, there are 105 days remaining within the current window before the 2026 midterms for formal charges to be lodged against the coupsters.<\/p>\n

So, now everyone\u2019s expecting a hairy-scary summer of Democratic Party inspired mayhem,<\/strong> a ratcheted-up \u201cNo Kings\u201d orgy of riots, the last remaining gambit to goad Mr. Trump into emergency action so they can holler, \u201cLook: king!\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s only a question of what might spark it off. I\u2019ll venture to predict that spark will be the indictment of Barack Obama. If you think the Lefty-left is crazy now, wait until that happens.<\/p>\n

At least Stephen Colbert won\u2019t be around to turn it into a song-and-dance act.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
