Will this year be remembered as the 250th birthday of our FREE REPUBLIC, or the LAST YEAR OF OUR GREAT EXPERIMENT?

There is no doubt that we are in stormy skies, as we approach our next national birthday and a national mid-term election, all in the same year.

Thanks to massive fraud, from the Left and the lies from the media, this year could actually be our finale.

We as citizens of a Republic we treasure, must know what is happening and what we can do about it. We must be aware and act wherever and whenever we can. We owe it to future generations.

Two hundred and fifty years ago, our nation was brought forth as an unprecedented self-governing, diverse Republic. Our founding fathers gave us a precious gift.

Remember Ben Franklin, telling the lady in 1787, that “we have a Republic, ma’am, if we can keep it”? Mr. Franklin understood how very difficult it would turn out to be.

Today, the opposition is openly stating that they are Socialists, to avoid identity with the losing Biden team. They are desperate to avoid the Biden/Harris debacle, so they are moving left, hoping to capture the clueless and/or crazed voter who believes in Socialism. After all, our schools have NOT really taught the Constitution in a lot of years…Federal law requires 9/17 to be called “Constitution Day” but real classroom instruction has been diluted, at best. Some schools actually teach about it with more like civic cynicism than praise.

Here’s old Bernie Sanders, on YouTube from two weeks ago.

The United States is a Republic, sorry, Bernie et. al.

The Left, however, insists on calling America a “democracy” – where the majority rules. That does not work in a representative government, because the large population centers would automatically rule the roost. THAT, of course, is part of their plan.

You’ve most probably thought about that, but here are the numbers. They are scary.

The population of New York plus California is 60 million. Add MI, MN, PA, WA, NJ, IL, and WI, and the total becomes 122.5 million, who live in liberal states. Every citizen of those states will not, of course, vote “D”, but the vote totals can and will be adjusted by the fraud machinery in place.

Together, the population of TX and Fl, the two largest RED states, amounts to 57 million. Add TN, MO, IA, KS and WV and you get a total of 81.5 million.

In addition, the Left has added millions of illegals – non-citizens, if you will – to the voter rolls in dozens of states. The addresses of their “registrations” often given them away…public buildings, laundromats, factories, city parks, non-existent streets, and many more.

The media, as you know, is at the service of the Left, 24/7, and is working their lies to keep people “hot”, and hating our current government. Of the top 13 media outlets, only Fox News (which is often NOT conservative, as we all know) shares conservative viewpoints and facts.

The long-overdue Democrat Party Assessment report of the 2024 election, tells us who the opposition Party has finally become. As we all know, they have been sliding towards this for years.

The report makes excuses, blames others and makes to effort to get the party back on their typical liberal track.

They whine about Biden’s team not effectively supporting Kamala’s acts while VP, or conducting a “deeper poll” about her run for POTUS. The report made no mention decade-high inflation numbers under old Joe, OR, the destruction of our education and health care systems through the Carter and Obama years. Of course.

“The national campaign did not effectively drive Trump’s negatives, and the White House did not effectively support Vice President Harris over three and a half years to improve her standing before the candidate switch,” the report complained.

The Democrat Party’s report on 2024, was a pure shovel job. You know, scooping the litter box to toss a few turds, but not beginning to really cleaning it out.

Instead, the Left is repositioning the Party, calling – LOUDLY – for Socialism/Communism.

This was the goal of the Democrat Socialist movement , founded in the 1980’s, – to make the Democrat Party, Socialist. It has taken 50 years, but this dark place has been reached.

One of the DS trainees, first elected to Congress in 2017, Occasio-Cortez, (“AOC”) is considered, at this point, to be their leading candidate to run for POTUS on 2028. And we thought Kammy was bad…

A dozen years ago, when I blatantly stated that the only two political parties today were Constitutionalists and Communists, everyone jumped on me for being “too harsh”.

The Democrat party – now, the “Socialist” party – is stepping forward to support a form of government that has NO PLACE in our Republic. Mob rule. Think of those numbers above.

They are doing it by broadcasting lies and vitriol, churning those who will listen into a knee-jerk hatred for everything and everyone who is on the other side.

Those who would destroy this Republic, would make it into mob rule. It bears repeating.

Their followers are brainless sheep. The old traditional “blue dog Democrat”, the backbone of the Democrat party, is no more.

I am stressing this because the enemy is working overtime to steal the 2026 midterms. I believe that election fraud is their only avenue to a fake victory, and remember…once vote totals are certified – illegitimate or not – the one elected becomes legitimate.

Think the Congress has been slow to act the way you’d expected them to? Ha.

We MUST have free and fair elections.

How would future generations remember us, should we allow that treasure to be lost?

If we allow the 2026 Midterm elections to be stolen, and allow the enemy to take control of our lives, our heirs would be forced to live in a totalitarian state which wields absolute control, and in which the people have virtually no real authority.

Future generations would blame us for their horrors.

Our Founders pledged their LIVES FORTUNE AND SACRED HONOR, and they gave all. All we’re asked to do today is get off the couch and out the door. OR, stay in, with your computer in front of you, sign in to non-partisan ELLY, theelectorlist.com and get to work with your local officials to verify your local voter rolls .

“ . . .If we can keep it”

Let’s prove we CAN.
