One of the most interesting things about watching the news today is to see correlations between what should be unconnected news events, such as the January 6th Commission Hearings, and the supposed danger Ben Shapiro and Joe Rogan pose to American Democracy. These are news stories that are treated by news sources like CNN and MSNBC as totally separate, and yet they are very clearly two parts of the same story.

The media separates these stories only because, taken separately, these stories support the liberal narrative about dark forces from the Republican fortress of Mordor rising up once again to seek the Ring of Power and kill the Hobbits.

As soon as you put these two stories together, on the other hand, suddenly it becomes clear that The Lord of the Rings was a work of fiction (it was also, incidentally, written by Tolkein to be published together in one very long novel – it was his publisher’s idea to break it into three), and that the evil forces rising up to return our nation to something akin to serfdom come from the very people claiming to be liberating us from the oppressiveness of our systems of liberty and justice – systems which are of course suddenly racist to the core.

As soon as we put these stories together, suddenly we realize that while Joe Biden tells us how inflation is totally not his fault and that high gas prices are the result of Putin invading some country Biden can no longer remember, his Secretary of Energy is laughing about the high price of gasoline and telling us it is our own fault we are paying through the nose – you should have bought an electric car.

As soon as you put these stories together, you might notice that California is both telling people that they will ban all but electric cars ⏤ while also running public service announcements asking people not to charge electric cars due to the strain charging them causes on California’s electricity grid.

As soon as you put these stories together, you can suddenly see that there is no Ring of Power, but that there is a tremendous amount of hypocrisy and ineptitude coming from those who hold political power. Pete Buttigieg, just one example, thinks roads are racist, and yet he is the Secretary of Transportation. This is a man who posts photographs of himself breastfeeding his baby on Instagram, oblivious to the fact that he has no milk for the baby to drink.

The country is being run by complete and utter idiots whose hatred for our nation is only eclipsed by their utter contempt for the lives and livelihoods of the people living in it, and as soon as you see that the January 6 Hearings, and the supposed danger to Democracy Ben Shapiro’s popularity poses, are the same story, suddenly the pieces of the puzzle fall into place.

Those who have followed me for some time know that I was raised in an atheist, Democrat household. My mother still watches CNN, and in fact, it is on her TV all day, every day as background noise, unless she is actively watching something else.

I have to be in Muskegon, Michigan, one day a week for work. I drive in on Sunday, stay overnight, and drive home on Monday. I rent a room in an apartment rather than getting a hotel room every week, and my host watches CNN religiously, leaving his television on CNN even when he is not home.

CNN is the elevator music of news sources. It serves as background noise for millions of Americans, and though 20% of the public still takes what CNN says as gospel, 80% of America knows CNN to be full of crap. I have shown several times how CNN is censored by the Chinese Communist Party – based on a contract Time Warner has with China in which Time Warner is allowed to air content in China and to produce content specifically for China, but in return, Time Warner has agreed that everything Time Warner produces for both China, and the United States will be edited for content by the Chinese Communist Party. That’s not a wild conspiracy theory either – it is a concrete fact. Time Warner sold out the American people for money, and they are not alone. All of our major media houses have similar contracts with the Chinese Communist Party.

LeBron James just announced that he wants to own an NBA franchise – in China.

As soon as you realize that the January 6 Hearings, and the terrible menace that is Ben Shapiro, are the same story, you might notice that CNN and LeBron James love to lecture you on how evil a person you are, all while getting rich off an enemy of our state that is currently engaged in one of the largest acts of genocide in human history. Joe Biden actually called our stance on genocide a ‘cultural difference’ with the Chinese – as if the Chinese people themselves and not just the Chinese Communist Party are responsible for the millions of Ughars living in concentration camps next door to the studio in which Disney filmed the non-animated version of Mulan.

And in the meantime, though our own government cannot legally censor our media, we seem more than happy to let a genocidal, hostile foreign power do so.

And with China having been censoring our media for years, suddenly our own government wants in on the censorship game as well.

Against that backdrop, let us take a good hard look at the top story on CNN: the January 6 Hearings.

Just to be clear, these are not Congressional Hearings. Actual Congressional Hearings have members from both sides of the political aisle, and as such, they explore some semblance of truth. There are two Republicans among the nine committee members, but they were not chosen by Keven McCarthy (the current House Minority Leader) as they are supposed to be. Nancy Pelosi said she did not want MAGA to taint the committee, so she broke every protocol under the sun and appointed every single person on the January 6 Committee herself, including two Republicans, who were chosen specifically because they said they would throw Trump to the wolves out of sheer hatred.

The commission did not perform a study probing both sides of what happened on January 6, 2020, and in fact, it did not conduct a study at all. The committee started with a script of its findings and then went through events, picking and choosing whatever it could (in some cases just making things up) to create the best case against the Republican Party, and in particular, against Donald Trump, it possibly could – independently of any facts that might run against their narrative. 

Note that the January 6 Commission did not allow Republicans to call witnesses or to cross-examine the witnesses called by Democrats. Most sham trials have a sham defense. The January 6 Commission allowed no semblance of a defense at all.

America used to pride itself on being above this kind of political theater, but now the Speaker of the House is using her office to create a play and is using the People’s House as her own personal theater.

The January 6th Committee Hearings were no more real than a World Wide Wrestling Federation match. The only difference is that at least the WWF has some entertainment value.

And the worst thing about the committee hearing results is that the House hired a television producer to help sensationalize their presentations, the way Geraldo Riveria sensationalized Al Capone’s Vault. 

Note that just like Geraldo Riveria, Nancy Pelosi found nothing.

Note the accusations. The Proud Boys and The Oath Keepers were ‘inspired’ by Donald Trump. Those are the only two groups that have been charged with anything premeditated (and if the accusations turn out to be true, then, of course, they should be prosecuted), but the accusations against Donald Trump do not even accuse Trump of doing anything illegal. Trump is being accused only of having ‘inspired’ illegal activity.

Was Trump callous? Did Trump inflame things? Did Trump fail to act Presidential? Perhaps – but doing so, while perhaps a poor choice on his part, was not in any way illegal. And the January 6th Commission never even bothered to mention that Donald Trump put 20,000 National Guard troops at Nancy Pelosi’s disposal to help provide security on January 6. Nancy Pelosi refused to use them.

I don’t know what evidence the state may have against the Proud Boys or the Oath Keepers, but I know there is a boatload of video of Ray Epps encouraging protestors to storm the Capitol, and I know that Ray Epps was doing so as a paid informant of the FBI. As such, the only group that I know for a fact pre-planned a riot for January 6 is the Federal Government of the United States. Unfortunately, by making the ‘hearings’ purely one-sided propaganda, facts such as those never came out.

These ‘hearings’ were nothing more than a banana republic witch trial, and it is an offensive embarrassment that such a show occurred in the United States.

Ben Shapiro, in the meantime, is bigger than CNN and MSNBC combined. The Daily Wire is even producing feature movies and is absolutely crushing it in the ratings (America Out Loud is crushing it as well – but we don’t have the investors The Daily Wire has).

Joe Rogan is the most popular entertainment personality in the country – not bigger than The Daily Wire, but bigger than any single personality on The Daily Wire, including Ben Shapiro.

And Fox News is the most popular network in the country ⏤ by a wide margin.

One of Sun Tzu’s axioms in The Art of War is that if you control your enemy, you control the war, and I’m afraid that America’s largest ‘conservative’ news source (Fox News) is propaganda. The purpose of Fox News is to provide a controlled voice of opposition for us to rally around, such that even the opposition remains tightly controlled. This is why Fox is largely ignoring the January 6′ hearings,’ running instead shows championing the ‘courage’ of a mother for transitioning the gender of a five-year-old child.

Understand that Fox News is not ‘news’ any more than CNN is.

Understand that there is no longer any such thing as ‘news’ in this country at all.

We know we are being controlled because of the sudden fear the left has toward Ben Shapiro and Joe Rogan, and we know this based on the things CNN, MSNBC, Congress, and the President are saying, which is that the government needs to act to weaken the impact of Ben Shapiro and Joe Rogan, and to strengthen the drive CNN and MSNBC have over the will of the American people. 

The American people have awakened to the fact that CNN and MSNBC are blowing smoke up our collective backs. The American People have awakened to the fact that the Democratic Party is an enemy of the state (in spite of the fact that the Democrats currently RUN the state), and the Democrats have awakened to the fact that a tsunami of Biblical proportions awaits them in both the midterm elections, as well as in the next Presidential election.

Enter the January 6 Hearings ⏤ the left’s solution to being on the cusp of losing power is to suppress dissent and then end all vestiges of our Democratically elected institutions.

Both the calls to suppress people like Ben Shapiro and Joe Rogan, and the January 6 ‘hearings’ are attempts to justify ending freedom, and holding onto power by any means necessary.

The House is attempting to do what Gretchen Whitmer and the FBI are doing in Michigan, which is to look at polling, and then to use the power of the state to prevent anyone Gretchen Whitmer is afraid to run against from being on the Gubernatorial ballot. That’s right – the Michigan Election Board, which answers to Governor Whitmer, kicked the five top-polling Republicans off the ballot, and then the FBI arrested the 6th top-polling Republican for misdemeanor charges related to January 6, 2020. You don’t see Democrats getting subjected to the kind of scrutiny Republicans are suddenly getting subjected to – Democrats are allowed to run. Republicans are only allowed to run if they are not popular enough to win.

If you control both sides, you control the war. Gretchen Whitmer is choosing who she wants to run against, and in so doing, she controls both sides of the election. And I have to hand it to her – it’s crooked, but it’s smart. I’ve been calling her ‘Herr Whitmer,’ but maybe a more fitting nickname would be ‘Don Gretchen’.

What is happening in Michigan is a precursor for what is about to happen all over the country ⏤ the January 6 ‘hearings’ are a Federal attempt at using the power of the state to rig upcoming elections. And if the American people buy into this garbage, our Democratic Republic is over.

Does that mean Donald Trump is a great guy? Of course not. Anyone who has been following me for any period of time knows that I am not a Donald Trump supporter. I like Ron DeSantis, Rand Paul, Jim Jordan, and a host of other Republicans more than Donald Trump. I even still like Dan Crenshaw more than Donald Trump, in spite of the fact that Dan Crenshaw has taken some positions that go against the grain of mainstream conservative thought.

But Dan Crenshaw, Ron DeSantis, Jim Jordan, Rand Paul, and other Conservative voices have a giant hurdle they have to jump if their political futures are going to survive – they need the current attempts at generating false narratives and at suppressing the truth to fail.

If the January 6 Commission and the people behind it get their way – if voices such as Ben Shapiro and Joe Rogan are shut down for the crime of being popular – large numbers of Republicans leading important races will be excluded from the upcoming midterm and Presidential elections, weakening the Republican Party, and giving the Democrats reasons, in the court of public opinion, to throw more and more elections with more and more blatant tactics.

Imagine voting in a riot where Republican voters get whacked by ANTIFA carrying ‘mostly peaceful’ bicycle locks.

Democrats are using lies to forward not only an unholy Anti-American agenda, but also to do all of the things they accuse Republicans of doing. If we do nothing, they will win.
