The Democratic Party is threatening the lives of every American, the democratic elections process, and the sovereignty of our nation, while corrupting every federal institution. The degree of this party's threat to America cannot be overstated. Yet, few want to say it out loud: If Democrats regain control, America will finally cease to be America as we have known it.
Abraham Lincoln said it, and it is now more true than ever: "America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."
Democrats in policy and words take every anti-American, anti-law-and-order, anti-accountability, anti-economic strength, and anti-family position. They have become openly hostile to American history and greatness and increasingly socialist. The party supports crime in Washington, D.C., and socialism in New York City. It supports protecting illegal immigrant criminals, anti-semitism, anti-whiteness, and the LGBTQ agenda.
Every week brings more evidence that this party can never, as constituted, be in power again.
Last week, Harjinder Singh, an illegal alien from India, was arrested on three charges of vehicular homicide after he tried to make a senseless illegal U-turn while driving his semi-tractor trailer on the Florida Turnpike. He had been given a commercial driver's license in Washington and California, but had poor English and no grasp of the laws governing driving.
During police questioning at the scene, Singh answered only two of the 12 basic competency questions correctly. And shockingly, he could only identify one traffic sign correctly. One. Yet Democrat policy is to give him and hundreds of thousands like him a CDL to drive massive vehicles at high speeds on our interstates.
Singh illegally crossed the southern border in 2018. The Trump administration tried to deport him and rejected Singh's work permit, but it was quickly approved under the Biden administration in 2021, along with thousands of others. This is Democrat policy associated with wide open borders and millions of unvetted illegal aliens streaming into America, taking American jobs, threatening American lives, and undermining American sovereignty.
In defense of their indefensible policies, they demonize ICE Agents and encourage or defend violence against the agents who are doing their lawful duty to arrest criminal aliens for prosecution or deportation, making Americans safer.
In D.C., Trump's takeover of Metro Police and addition of 800 National Guard members has had stunning results. The police union released crime stats just in the week since the President deployed the National Guard, and the results are remarkable: Carjackings are down 83 percent, robberies down 46 percent, all violent crime down 22 percent, car theft down 21 percent, and overall crime down 8 percent. Additionally, nearly 500 people have been arrested following Trump's order, half of whom are illegal aliens, and four more homeless encampments were cleaned out on Monday.
Our nation's Capital is measurably safer than it was two weeks ago. But the safer it gets, the more Democrats oppose the efforts. The Democrat policy is to support criminals and crime over obviously effective measures that reduce both and make Americans safer.
In addition to Democrat open border policies leading to illegal aliens killing Americans on our roadways and in our cities, it has also resulted in the heartbreaking reality of hundreds of thousands of children trafficked into the U.S. Data from the DHS Inspector General last year found that 320,000 children who crossed the border illegally went missing under the previous Democrat administration — let's be done with the fiction that it was the Biden administration, as it was run from the beginning by a cabal of powerful Democrats pursuing Democrat objectives.
Tragically, we now know that 11,000 kids went to completely unvetted sponsors while 80,000 were never once checked after being put in a home. And 65,000 cases that were called into the Democrat administration as "notices of concern" — which could include every form of child abuse — were never followed up on. This should enrage every American, yet it was and is Democrat policy to overwhelm the system.
As horrific as the above examples are, they may not be the biggest threats. Just the most recent to come to light.
With actual control of the Department of Justice, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and FBI Director Kash Patel are exposing the depth of the conspiracy to undermine the 2016 election. The conspiracy now appears to include every intelligence agency in the Obama White House, working with the Hillary Clinton campaign and possibly going all the way up to Barack Obama himself. Document dumps show what Gabbard called a "treasonous conspiracy."
The conspiracy will go down in history as a dark stain on American democracy and the rule of law. But who doubts that Democrats will do it again if given the chance? The Democratic Party's threat to America is in every corner:
Democrats embrace, support, and even fund radical Islamic terrorist groups and organizations, including CAIR here in America, Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, and whatever they mean by Palestine. Democrat professors on college campuses have been radicalizing students for decades, but now they are actively creating radical Islamist terrorist groups on American campuses.
Democrats have been at the forefront of destroying the traditional family structure, the foundation of any nation, and most certainly one founded on Judeo-Christian principles. From promoting the now mainstreamed concept of unbridled sex outside marriage as the norm, to unlimited, government-funded abortion up to birth, to the embrace of gay marriage and gay adoption, Democrats attack the family structure. Further, Democrats for decades have pushed welfare over work, and vehemently opposed just modest 20-hour work weeks for able-bodied Americans to qualify for welfare such as SNAP benefits in the One Big Beautiful Bill.
They have worked to dumb down American education, eliminating critical thinking and creating sheep-like followers. This all purposely creates a welfare class.
The list of Democrat beliefs and policies actively undermining America and endangering Americans is not limited to the fringe elements. From Russia collusion, to election rigging, to open border catastrophes, to educational indoctrination, to family destruction, to Marxism, it's from the very top of the party down to the base.
Simply put, this is a party that cannot be in power again. It will double down on everything.
