The Resistance Begins
It is now clear that the Biden Administration poses the greatest threat to the American
experiment we have seen in modern history. To be sure, the Obama administration was a
major threat but the Biden team seems determined to push the boundaries of radicalism far
beyond even what Barak Obama had fantasized, even though we must admit he laid the
foundation for Biden.
Whether its support for open borders, the use of illegal Executive Orders, the undermining of
our constitutional rights or the unprecedented demonization and harassment of conservatives
based on phony racial narratives, the Biden agenda is a total assault on America’s founding
principles, the rule of law and our democratic institutions.
It is not known at this time whether America will survive this assault. To be sure, if Biden
succeeds with packing the court, converting D.C. or Puerto Rico into new states, granting
amnesty to millions of illegal aliens and institutionalizing the corruption of our electoral
system, we may never recover the America of our fathers. Rather, we will witness the
evolution of what one could call a “soft” police state, characterized by cronyism, socialism,
globalism and the complete censorship and ostracization of everyone and anyone not
supportive of the revolution.
It is clearly the duty of the conservative movement to challenge this illegitimate regime and
every grass-roots group, PAC, think tank and foundation on the right needs to be solely focused
on defeating this monster or our movement will cease to exist. Groups that shy away from this
challenge, need to go under, and if old-line conservative groups are not up to the fight, new
groups new to be formed to take their place. A successful resistance needs big numbers, but
the good news is that the MAGA movement inspired by Trump has created the largest grass-
roots political movement in modern political history.
The Rise of the Grass-Roots
Last week, former VP Mike Pence announced the formation of Advancing America Freedom to
serve as a clearinghouse for the MAGA grass-roots. Hopefully this is not just a group to
promote Mike Pence but rather a real effort to harness the energy of the millions of MAGA
volunteers and put them to work fighting the cancel culture, recruiting candidates, and working
to win back congress in 2022. Right off the bat, I hope they kick off their efforts by hosting a
series of massive MAGA rallies featuring Trump himself.
But the MAGA movement has also given birth to hundreds of smaller grass-roots groups all over
the country, many involving people fairly new to politics. Groups such as Moms for Liberty and
1776 Forever Free. Other groups are forming that focus on specific issues such as Stop
Corporate Tyranny, which was recently formed to educate the grassroots about what
corporations should be boycotted for selling out America.
Challenging the Social Media Monopoly
In order to organize in today’s world, conservatives need social media but they have had it with
the pompous liberals running social media companies as if they were the media department for
the Democrat Party. Of course, Trump himself has announced the formation of his own
platform, set to open sometime this summer. And MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has created a
new platform, called Frank, which he says will “handle over a billion users.”
Then there are a number of other social media platforms that were never part of the
Twitter/Facebook/Google monopoly and very popular with conservatives, such as Gab, MeWe,
Rumble, and Parler.
Resistance by State Attorney Generals
The growing resistance movement also includes states and attorney generals who have filed a
flood of lawsuits challenging the legality of Biden’s power-grabbing executive orders. 13 states
are suing Biden for an order that prohibited them from cutting taxes if they’ve accepted
coronavirus funds. Louisiana and Texas are suing to force Biden to take custody of criminal
illegal aliens instead of releasing them into America’s cities to commit more crimes.
Arizona and Montana are suing the Biden open borders crowd for limiting the detention and
deportation of illegal aliens, which is clearly in violation of federal law. Twenty-one state
attorneys are suing Biden over his illegal cancellation of the Keystone Pipeline. Twelve states
are in court with Biden over his fraud-based climate policies, which will do great damage to
their economies.
And there are many others. Just about every Biden executive order is under legal challenge.
State Legislators attack Election Fraud
While the MAGA movement is outraged at how many Republican state legislators sat on their
hands while their election laws were watered down right in front of them, these folks have
finally woken up and have belatedly joined the resistance. At least 40 bills have been
introduced in over 20 states dealing with the integrity of our elections.
In response to revelations that Facebook poured millions of dollars into shadowy groups
engaged in shady election work such as “ballot harvesting,” Arizona introduced a bill to
prohibit private donations from funding this kind of activity.
Also in Arizona, the Senate finally got around to announcing a forensic audit of the 2020 results
which was riddled with illegal voting. And in Wisconsin, the assembly authorized a new
investigation of the 2020 results in that state. And of course, Georgia has passed a somewhat
tepid package of election reforms, but the bill does call for showing an ID for absentee voters, a
huge improvement.
Not to get lost in the rush, Florida Governor Ron Desantis has just proposed a slew of voter
integrity measures, including a ban on mail voting.
Finally, former Trump policy advisor Stephen Miller has formed a group called America First
Legal to assist Republican attorneys with challenging executive branch abuses in addition to
filing lawsuits of its own.
Private Legal Action Targeting Vote Fraud Continues
Lastly, there are groups that continue to research vote fraud and litigate when necessary.
Some of these groups have been at this for years such as Judicial Watch. Some are newer to the
game. JW is the grandfather of such groups and they’ve been suing states for years for refusing
to clean up their voter rolls regarding dead people, out of state voters, etc., as required by
federal law. Indeed, JW conducted a study which revealed that “353 U.S. counties had 1.8
million more registered voters than eligible voting-age citizens. In other words, the registration
rates of those counties exceeded 100% of eligible voters.”
But other groups are also doing similar work such as the Public Interest Legal Foundation, which
recently forced Pennsylvania to remove 21,000 people from the state voter data base.
Then there’s Heritage Action for America which “plans to spend at least $10 million on a wide-
ranging election integrity campaign to strengthen voting laws in eight swing states.”
Even the staid Republican National Committee has announced the creation of a committee to
“work alongside state governments to push for election reforms including a voter ID
requirement and having poll watchers count every vote.”
Moreover, unbeknownst to many people, lawyers and researchers are continuing to dig up
evidence of voter fraud. Attorney Matthew DePerno, for example, just discovered modem
chips embedded in the Michigan voting system motherboard, which means the machines were
online, something the left constantly told us was a “conspiracy theory.”
Nor has Sydney Powell given up on legal efforts. And in Wisconsin, the private Amistad Project
continues to unveil election fraud and just last week filed a formal complaint filed with the
Wisconsin Election Commission alleging that city officials allowed private activist groups to
control significant aspects of the 2020 elections, including ballot "curing" and vote counting.
Then there’s Jovan Pulitzer, one of the nation’s most prominent data analysts who continues to
engage in incredible work exposing how the election was stolen.
And there are other less known groups working tirelessly on voter fraud, such as Valor America
and True the Vote.
The liberals, never Trumpers and RINOs have been pushing the narrative that the election was
relatively clean, but if that was the case, why are so many states enacting voter integrity laws?
And why are some many legal groups still involved with litigation? Indeed, even a non-partisan
Fact Check group called Just the Facts, has now released research showing that it’s very
possible the illegal alien vote alone cost Trump the 2020 election.
The resistance is just beginning but we have a lot of work to do if we are to save America.
