They haven't given up on representative government. They've never wanted it....... Authoritarian rule or bust.
The following happened in roughly the space of a week.
President Biden invited three Tennessee state legislators, two of them expelled by their colleagues, to the White House to celebrate their alleged courage and decry their supposed victimization. The former consisted of the trio taking over the well of the Tennessee House chamber and leading chants to encourage the mob, which had invaded the body, demanding more gun control after the mass shooting at a Nashville Christian school. The perpetrator, shot dead by police, has been described as transgender.
Contrast Mr. Biden’s embrace of leaders of the Tennessee mob with Democrats’ exaggerated outrage over Jan. 6. When it’s against the interests of the Democratic Party, it’s an insurrection. When it furthers its interests, it’s a peaceful protest in defense of democratic values.
Within days of the mob action in Tennessee, an antifa/Black Lives Matter gang shut down a speech by Kristan Hawkins — leader of Students for Life of America — at Virginia Commonwealth University.
Those who had come to hear Mrs. Hawkins’ were met with shouts of “Fascists go home” and “F—- pro-lifers.” Through all of this, the campus police were notably absent, though two who allegedly assaulted pro-lifers were later arrested.
Within days of that atrocity, former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines tried to speak at San Francisco State University on why female athletes should not be forced to compete against biological males. Besides being held prisoner in a room barricaded by protesters and called a “f—-ing transphobic bitch,” Ms. Gaines was punched by a man in a dress.
Such scenes are repeated on campuses across the country, especially when the conversation concerns hot-button issues such as abortion, gun control and transgenderism. Administrators who share the mob’s values do nothing to stop it.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott says he hopes to pardon Army Sgt. Daniel Perry, who was railroaded by a George Soros-supported prosecutor and convicted of murder in what was clearly a case of self-defense.
It stems from a July 2020 riot in Austin, when Perry, who was off duty driving an Uber, had his car surrounded by a Black Lives Matter mob that beat on the vehicle. When one of the rioters pointed an AK-47 at Perry, the sergeant shot him.
