Hey, Democrats, Stop Digging

Recently, California Gov. Gavin Newsom had conservative activist Charlie Kirk on his podcast. During that interview, Newsom asked Kirk for advice. If Gavin Newsom had asked the same question of me, my response would have been "stop digging." Of course many of you will recognize those words from the age old adage, "if you find yourself in a hole, stop digging." There can be no debate about the fact that the Democrat Party is in a hole of their own making, but they keep digging. Even CNN's avowed socialist commentator Van Jones said the Democrat Party is screwed...again, by their own design.

Let's look at a few examples. Last week I wrote a piece titled "What do Democrats Stand For" in response to their abhorrent behavior during President Trump's address to the joint session of Congress. But the party of the jackass just keeps on digging.

Take the case of one Hamas sympathizer, Mahmoud Khalil. First of all, Hamas is a designated terrorist organization. Hamas has in its charter the elimination, eradication, and extermination of the State of Israel and the Jewish people. Hamas is the governing authority in an area called the Gaza Strip. Hamas is a non-state, non-uniformed belligerent entity that on October 7, 2023, attacked a sovereign nation, killed its citizens, including babies, and took hostages...some of these were Americans. Hamas is such a barbaric terrorist organization that they took two little Jewish children, boys, hostage, and murdered them. And then sought to promulgate a lie about them dying in a bomb attack when forensic examination revealed their strangulation and subsequent brutal beating of their bodies.

Now, with this backdrop, we have Mahmoud Khalil, a green card holder here in America with a student visa, leading pro-Hamas rallies, demonstrations, and protestations in college campuses. In other words, Khalil was providing material support and comfort to the enemy, in this case an Islamic terrorist organization. Khalil's actions included threats and intimidations levied against Jewish students. There can be no debate to the fact that Mahmoud Khalil, an Arab, is aiding and abetting Islamic jihadist activity in our country. Full stop!

But here come the leftists with their shovels to dig deeper and take the side of Khalil stating that he has freedom of speech. There is a very clear difference between freedom of speech and inciting violence and sedition...just like the Islamic jihadist supporters in Dearborn, Michigan, who were shouting "Death to America." I find the hypocrisy quite laughable, yet disconcerting, that leftists, Democrats, were more than happy to shut down the freedom of speech and expression by American citizens who spoke up about Covid and mandated shots. Now, do they believe that a pro-Hamas sympathizer has a right to free speech?

The left is also pushing this weak argument that Khalil should not be deported because he is married and his wife is pregnant. Since when could anyone committing a crime use being married and expecting a child as a means of defense? Khalil is more than welcome to have his wife and young child join him in his deportation. After all, there are consequences to one's actions, and perhaps Khalil's wife should have told him to have a nice hot cup of "Shut the Heck Up," and spend more time at home, and not out and about supporting an Islamic terrorist organization...unless she condones his actions and behavior?

There is no defense for Mahmoud Khalil. Americans are a very nice and generous people, and we open our doors to others to come and enjoy our equality of opportunity. However, lesson to Mahmoud Khalil, never bite the hand that feeds you. It is a privilege to receive a green card and have a student visa. Hey, Democrats, stop digging and trying to convince us that Mahmoud Khalil has a right to be here...he doesn't.

Another example of Democrats digging themselves into an ever-deeper hole comes from the gift that keeps on giving, Texas Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett. It appears that she also believes that anyone can just traipse into our country with no ramifications and disrespect our laws. Representative Crockett is supposed to be a member of the legislative branch of our federal government. However, it appears that she has little to no understanding, or knowledge, of U.S. law as it applies to our border security.

Crockett made what has to be one of the dumbest assertions, and that says a lot for her and Democrats, that coming into America illegally is not a crime. Silly me, I thought that if one does something that is illegal, it is because you have committed a crime. You know, if you are not doing something that is legal, as prescribed by law, then it is illegal, and therefore a crime. And entering the country illegally IS a violation of U.S. Statute and Code. As we know, you are either in the country legally or illegally, and if you are the latter, then you have indeed committed a crime.

Do I think that the progressive socialist left who control the Democrat party will stop digging themselves into a deeper political hole? Nope. We can all agree that they are such mindless lemmings and delusional ideologues that they cannot see the error of their ways. And actually, I say we keep giving them new shovels to enable their digging. Only deranged leftists would take the side against identifying and eliminating government fraud, waste, and abuse at every level of governance. I check out the DOGE.gov site a few times a week, who could justify what is being uncovered? Yet, the Diggin' Democrats keep wailing about Elon Musk and DOGE, to the point of them now reverting to that which leftists embrace the most, violent actions. Once upon a time, leftists pushed for mandating Americans driving electric vehicles, now leftists are destroying them and charging stations.

The deeper the hole, the harder it will be to climb out. And no, the shape shifter Gavin Newsom is not going to trick anyone into believing that he will be any different.

Keep digging y'all!

 

Steadfast and Loyal.
