OPINION:
We are living in dark and scary times, as the left wages its war on American culture and prepares the nation for a forced march to its social-justice utopia — a utopia always seemingly located over the next horizon, after the next set of regulations, the next tax increase or the next entitlement program.
But who can deny that the left has already won the culture war? It owns most of the mainstream “news” outlets, the universities and the public-school curricula. Its members are the faces of popular entertainment.
But its march is not over, for now the left is coming for you. It’s coming for your wallet, wealth, values and free speech. And it is coming for President Trump, for he is the only one standing in its way. He is not intimidated by the partisan national media, political correctness, identity politics, or the politics of victimization and resentment.
Now the left is preparing to take down Mr. Trump with Russia hoax 2.0 — the Ukraine hoax. As the Democratic-controlled House replaces the American spirit of bipartisanship, fair play and transparent investigation with restricted access, secret meetings, duplicity and planned leaks to its media accomplices, where are the nation’s “statesmen” calling out this travesty? They are cowering in the dark, intimidated by the machine of the left, too afraid to support the only national leader focused on the real needs of the American people. Yes, these are very dark and scary times, indeed.
