“Democrats can deny reality, but Portland tells the truth: This isn’t protest – it’s premeditated anarchy. The radical left & Antifa-led chaos ENDS NOW,” said a White house Instagram reel published Saturday.

The post showed a video of Portland, Oregon in complete destruction. Not only do many believe these are paid “ANTIFA” protestors, set up by the left-wing blue money, the disorder, drug use and chaos are shocking. People are being bussed in. By whom? Who is funding American chaos in our streets?

It does not look like the sexy kind of “anarchy” the children of the 90s thought would overturn the establishment. This is chaos. Destruction.

It’s scary.  

The protests, the riots, the military force. It all seems like something out of a movie. And it feels as though it’s escalating quickly. I don’t think this is a “whose fault is it” kind of issue. If we don’t get ourselves together, we won’t have a country much longer. It smells live a civil war is percolating.

While the leftists are screaming at the top of their lungs about inclusion and fairness, they miss the forest for the trees.

We want our country back.

It’s time to listen to people who have common sense in politics. Virginia Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earle-Sears recently opined, “Charlie Kirk died reminding us that America is the best and last hope on Earth. But our way of life is under violent attack from the violent left. They cancelled us, they silenced us, they lied about the very facts of nature. The mentally unstable are snapping when reality sets in. Men cannot become women. America is not a racist country. And income without work is a recipe for hopelessness.”

Meanwhile, on the Hill in D.C., Dems shut down the government over demands for ludicrous left-wing ideals, placing our citizens last, not first.

U.S. Sen. John Kennedy, R-Louisiana, itemized some of these earlier this week and described what the “socialist wing” demanded funding for: $4.2 million for LGBTQ funding in Uganda, $3 million for circumcisions and vasectomies in Zambia, a half million for electric busses in Rwanda, $3.6 million for dance focus groups and pastry cooking classes for male prostitutes in Haiti, $6 million for Palestinian media, $833,000 for transgenders in Nepal. The list goes on and on for how our American tax dollars were spent under President Joe Biden’s autopen.

Under the Biden administration, illegal immigrant medical costs skyrocketed by 142% to $ 9.1 billion taxpayer funding. In Denver Colorado, there were $10 million dollars in uncompensated care provided to illegal immigrants at a major hospital.

Remember in Wyoming when the Dems and their “Republican” friends wanted to expand Medicaid to pay for the uncompensated care? It should pay for abortions and transgender surgery and hormones too, right? No, our tax dollars should not.

Interestingly, in Wyoming recently, conservatives similarly led a charge to look at agency spending. If we want to add more local funding, perhaps it’s time to get rid of Gov. Mark Gordon’s state government waste.

Conservative leaders have expressed a desire to determine what the proper role of government should be. Obviously, we have a duty to assist the poor, elderly and needy. But what are the limitations and impacts of a more expansive welfare system for the state?

In September, the Wyoming Freedom Caucus released a statement which read, “The Dept. of Health eats up ¼ of the budget – billions every biennium. We’ve found grants for drag shows, hyper-sexualized free condom campaigns & concerning sex-ed materials.”

America must be free, secure, and capitalistic. That is truly what opens up our land of opportunity to being the greatest place on Earth. I wish libs would study their history. A quick little peruse down the world’s memory lane will teach ya real quick that Communism has led to genocide, famines, death camps, mass killings through implementation of political repression, ethnic cleansing, forced collectivization, elimination of “class enemies” or “enemies of the people” and more.

Ukraine, the Soviet Union and Cambodia have examples to get you started.

One side of politics believes the other side should be killed. The other side believes we should protect our country and our citizens first. You tell me who is out of touch.

If you heard the father testify to Congress this week about how his beautiful daughter was dragged out of her bed, stripped naked, and shot by an illegal alien with a history of dozens of charges and no deportation, you’d understand. But until then, please pick up a history book before you spread loud opinions about right and wrong.
