But, that's not the worst. They told the Border Patrol to stand down. They effectively opened our country to hundreds of thousands of unvaccinated refugees from all over the world. People carrying leprosy, typhus, measles, chickenpox, croup, hepatitis, tuberculosis, and many others including highly transmittable venereal diseases. Not to mention, people fleeing other countries due to their criminal activity. That's the real pandemic. The destruction of the United States from within by a tyrannical government.

[@willpayne3475]

@@bloodstormzcrimsonskyz623 No, they are totalitarian fascist liberals. The key to the successful spread of liberalism is specifically its lack of critical thought on the results of liberal ideas and solutions for society's problems. In fact, to be judgmental or to offer analysis of liberal prescriptions is in itself considered being anti-liberal. Just as a critic of any religious denomination is labeled a heretic, so too critics of liberalism are labeled uninformed or unenlightened. In other words you must take their beliefs and accept them even if they are contradictory or counterproductive. In order to accept liberalism a person must operate on an emotional level almost exclusively. Persons steeped in logic or the physical sciences are far less likely to be swept into the liberal camp. In addition, as people age and experience the trials of life and reflect on the cause-and-effect relationship of events they tend to become less liberal and more conservative in their thinking. "Any man under 30 who is not a liberal has no heart, and any man over 30 who is not a conservative has no brains." - Winston Churchill† Tragically, this means our young are the most vulnerable to liberal indoctrination. Whether by design or happenstance, it is a fact that the teaching profession has a history of attracting persons of a liberal, or leftist, ideology. This places them precisely where they need to be in order to spread their philosophy. The tenth plank of the Communist Manifesto states, "Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc." - Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels - 1848 While most practitioners of liberalism have no true goals or agendas for their beliefs, those in position to affect public policy often do have such goals. The common liberal is but a pawn in the ongoing struggle between socialism and freedom. Those in power on the left know that our system of representative democracy enables them to pursue their statist agenda by winning over the majority of the voting public to their positions and candidates. They are well aware that most people have little time or inclination to study about or give great thought to important matters of the day. Instead, large numbers of voters cast their ballots based purely on emotional terms ... the very heart of liberalism's appeal. (One could argue that the average conservative is no less a pawn for those on the right. Yet, by definition, a conservative arrives at his beliefs through the process of critical thought. As such, he is much less likely to be swayed by wrong-headed proposals even should they be offered up as "conservative". Most conservatives will weigh issues and solutions on their individual merits and only then decide if they are worthy of support.) The true agenda of the left is statism or control of the society by a small elite group. They are a patient lot and willing to achieve their goals over a long period of time through seemingly minor and incremental changes in the laws and attitudes of the nation. Through the constant hammering of emotion driven issues - education, the environment, child safety, gun control, nuclear war, etc. - they gradually affect the laws and policies that govern our society. All the while moving us closer to their goal of a nation of serfs working for the benefit of the powerful few that will control every aspect of a citizen's life.

Well... she literally said in the past that they have to be smart about it and lie... lol. That's exactly what she is doing. Also note that her eyebrows are constantly raised , there is a saying , at least in my language , "lie without blinking". Ive noticed that sociopaths dont look angry, but they have that senile look about them, they will eventually even smile at you while they spill their lies. In this case and in many other cases (Pocahontas, AOC, etc etc) constantly raising eyebrows means : "Look how sincere I am !" . These are absolutely sociopaths, if not even psychopaths .

@@user-ob3ph6fm5d ... lol. Thats not how the world works, if there are no positive effects during your time in the office, then you should not be in politics. Let others do it. Same goes for Obama that tried to take credit for the Economic Boom during Trump's presidency. And same goes for Biden that created a disaster , with a terribly organized retreat, but wants to give all "credit" to Trump. Dude you ran for president, you are the head of the state...then take some fking responsibility for what happens literally under you. Disgusting. I get it people like you will always hate Trump because you want that badly. Not to mention that Biden completely changed many of Trump's policies... that can be seen with the South border disaster. He also decided how the retreat should be organized together with his woke generals, take responsibility or get the fk out of the office if you cant.

@Investigative Audit I agree with what you said in terms of her decisions, however as an Atheist myself I can tell you that 97% of “non-believers” wouldn’t pretend to be a believer even if it meant getting a particular position. She clearly stated several times that she herself as well as her family are “people of faith”. In fact the only time I’ve ever known anyone who was an actual Atheist to lie was when I was in basic training and two troops didn’t want to have to stay with me and be punished by being forced to clean the barracks while everyone else got to go and fall asleep in the church pews. So they pretended they were believers and went to church. In my opinion they weren’t real Atheists and just tried to tell me they were so I wouldn’t feel alone, which I couldn’t have cared less about because I know there aren’t many Atheists in our country. However many of the ones I know today I met while serving in the military! Including a couple I met while “playing the sandbox” on a couple different trips there. I used to believe the myth “there are no Atheists in foxholes” until I found out just how untrue that statement is, apparently no one told Jesse Ventura (a Navy Seal, and Atheist as well as a pro wrestler lol) or my personal hero Pat Tillman! I like him joined because of 9/11 and since I was born and raised in Boston I knew people who lost loved ones in those attacks including my high school principle. Anyways sorry for the rant I just wanted to clarify what you said.
