We know already that President Biden and the Democrats are willing to pack the court if they conclude they have lost control over it. They admitted as much during the 2020 election. “Packing the court” is just a euphemism for destroying it, as it would then become just another political branch of the federal government. This should not surprise us. Whenever the left feels they have lost control of an institution, they try to destroy it.

The Constitutional Crisis That Roe v. Wade Set In Motion Is Now Upon Us – John Daniel Davidson, The Federalist, May 4, 2022

As Iowahawk put it,

Davidson opened the piece with:

Roe sowed the seeds of a crisis that will end with America ceasing to be divided: we will become all one thing or all the other.

I don’t think so. But it may finally bring the inevitable internal conflict to a head, as ugly as that will get. Then we’ll see what the rest of the world does when the United States isn’t there to pick up the pieces anymore. Personally, I don’t think we’re quite at the edge yet. This will be another “Great Leap Forward” towards that end, but I’m holding out for at least the 2020 mid-terms, more likely the 2024 Presidential election. What I expect will happen in the mean time is some more sporadic violence from the Left.

Sunday was May 1st, “May Day,” a traditional European holiday suborned by Communists as “International Workers Day.” It is, for want of a better term, “International Communism Day.”

So, let’s celebrate!

The First Amendment to the Constitution begins with what George F. Will once called “the most beautiful five words in the English language”: “Congress shall make no law.”

No law respecting an establishment of religion.

No law prohibiting the free exercise of religion.

No law abridging the freedom of speech, or the press.

No law abridging the right of the people to assemble peaceably to petition for redress of grievances.

NO LAW.

But the government has found a way around that. They don’t need a law. They just need a new executive branch bureau with the power to make and enforce regulations that Congress never sees. The Biden administration has decided that George Orwell’s 1984 isn’t a cautionary tale, but an instruction manual and has created its own Ministry of Truth, or as Orwell abbreviated it, “Minitrue” – the “Disinformation Governance Board,” – and headed it with a woman well-schooled in disinformation, because she has extensive practice at it.

Do you understand why the Left so desperately needs a majority on the Supreme Court?

The 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence comes in 2026. I wonder if we’ll make it there intact?

As an aside, the Nobel prize used to mean something and now it doesn’t. In 1970, (Norman) Borlaug got a Nobel prize for saving an estimated one billion human lives. In 2007, Al Gore got a Nobel prize for a PowerPoint presentation. In 2009, Barak Obama got a Nobel prize for breathing.

Adaptive Curmudgeon: Attack of the Gell-Man Effect

In a way, those who say “violence isn’t the answer” are right, just not how they think they are.

Violence isn’t the answer, it’s the question. Some times, the answer is “yes”. – Dan Poore, seen at Facebook

This video was posted in 2013. I had to listen to it twice. I wonder where these kids are today?

From Michael Walsh:

One of the things that has gotten America into such cultural and moral trouble is the Left’s ability to seize and transform words into what they would like them to mean, instead of what they actually do mean. So powerful has this movement been, so successful, that perfectly innocent words like “stereotype”—and morally positive words such as “discriminating”— have taken on an entirely negative connotation, while formerly negative terms such as “tolerance” have instead been elevated to cardinal virtues. – “Zero Tolerance for Tolerance,” – Michael Walsh 4/24/22

‘When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone, ‘it means just what I choose it to mean, neither more nor less.’
‘The question is,’ said Alice, ‘whether you can make words mean so many different things.’
‘The question is,’ said Humpty Dumpty, ‘which is to be master – that’s all.’ – Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll, 1865.
