(Jul. 25, 2026) — Are Mamdani, Platner, Sanders, Chevalier, Landers, Valdez, Wilson, Sayed and more the threat to the Republic or more like a festering boil on the butt cheek indicating a systemic virus?
Rhetorical.
Once again, no politician is miracled into office. They are voted into office by an exuberant majority of voters. The problem therefore is a growing, self-destructive, history deprived, morally depraved movement.
This is not new. Joseph McCarthy tried to pry it loose and burn it in its infancy in the ’50’s. But his efforts met with great resistance and he failed.
Then there is Academia, which covertly insinuated seemingly innocuous, even sweet- sounding, quasi-patriotic songs by avowed communists and atheists Pete Seeger and Malvina Reynolds into grade school. They mandated reading the works of Communist- sympathizing Steinbeck, London, Hemingway, George Bernard Shaw, and even Thoreau, all of whom infused heavy socialist themes into their published works. So, are the sociopolitical leanings of these writers coincidental or were they selected by Academia to purposely, seditiously and covertly sow the seeds of Constitutionally antithetical political themes in the minds of the most impressionable?
This has been building under the surface for decades, and now it has finally borne fruit.
These manifestations in the form of a handful of radical, Che Guevara-style revolutionaries are not anomalies; they were inevitabilities. As with everything concerning mankind, there is zero evidence supporting evolution, and by every metric, evidence of a putrefying devolution in individual character and societal structure.
These famous words trace back to September 1787. As Benjamin Franklin exited the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, a woman—reportedly Elizabeth Willing Powel—asked him, “Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?” His sharp, immediate response set the tone for American democracy: “A republic, if you can keep it.”
