L. Neil Smith<\/a> calls for an investigation into Senator Schumer’s “connection to this remnant Stalinist core, here in the West.”<\/p>\n

Following the inglorious collapse of the old Soviet Union back in the late 20th century, without a doubt the new capital of world collectivism has come to be centered somewhere between Washington, D.C. and New York City. (It had already been observed and lamented that, at a moment in history when communism was shriveling and dying all across its native Europe, the evil legacy of Marx and Engels was alive and well in most American universities.)<\/p>\n

New York and Washington, D,C, are both both the familiar stomping grounds of a dangerously deluded Democratic Senator who apparently has come to believe that he is the divinely-appointed rightful Chief Executive and Commander-in-Chief, and is presently leading a vicious assault on what might be termed \u201cThe Peoples\u2019 Presidency\u201d. One can be forgiven from wondering what stone he pulled his sword from.<\/p>\n

Judging from his unbrokenly statist legislative record, he has always believed that the \u201cpeasants\u201d (that\u2019s you and me) need a Leviathan to tell them what to do, where to go, how to live their lives, even how many gallons their toilet-tanks may hold. Under no circumstances, in his dementedly Draconian view, must the American electorate be permitted to choose their own leader, especially a leader pledged to lift the burden of authoritarian government from their weary shoulders. Their duty, in his view, is simply to be born, obey their masters, pay a lifetime of taxes, die and get out of the way, not to determine the course of the Ship of State (albeit, a sinking ship, aboard which he occupies the highest crow\u2019s- nest\u2014as it stands now, he\u2019ll be among the last to get his feet wet).<\/p>\n

However what needs to be investigated is not some entirely fictional collusion between the Trump Administration and Vladimir Putin\u2019s thoroughly post-Marxist, patently anti-communist Russia, repeated over and over and over and over again by the news floozies and gentlemen-of-the-evening of the compliant news media until we\u2019re expected to believe it, but Charles Schumer\u2019s deep connection to this remnant Stalinist core, here in the West.<\/p>\n

I will repeat that, because it\u2019s important. What needs to be investigated is not some fictional\u2014mythical\u2014collusion between the Trump Administration and Vladimir Putin\u2019s post- Marxist, anti-communist Russia, repeated over and over again by the round-heeled news media until we\u2019re expected to believe it, but Charles Shumer\u2019s own connection to this remnant Stalinist core, here in the West.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
