Blog #228 Why Democrat Socialists Hurt Americans
Why do Democrats Want to Hurt Americans?

January, 2025
We are witnessing the screaming, chaos, and destruction every week somewhere in America.
Most of the civil disruption is committed by Radical Democrats – call them leftists, progressives, socialists, or communists.
Yes, there was the so-called J6 Insurrection by Republicans. The disruption lasted one day and was far from an actual insurrection; it was more like a protest that got out of control. But Radical Democrats love exaggeration and drama and have committed serious damage costing billions of dollars and even assassinations over the years.
BLM riots, arson, and death lasted months and were more than drama. ANTIFA continues for years to be involved in protests leading to violence. In the end, Americans suffer and are hurt in many ways. Businesses are vandalized, burned, or simply robbed.
What is happening in Minnesota is very unusual. ICE operations continue around the country in other major cities, including Sanctuary cities, without mishap. But Minneapolis is the target this time, and the call went out to all the agitators and activists across the country to come and focus on Minneapolis. Time will pass, and other targets will come under attack. It is the Democrat Plan, even as the party itself is morphing into a Democrat Socialist or, probably more accurately, a Socialist-Communist Party.
Why? What is the objective of all this acrimony with alarming protests turned violent by willing, enthusiastic, and motivated people?
My first thought was to "look for the money".
Soros and liberal-minded billionaires surely fund it. But given all the lies, criminal activity, false claims, and hoaxes of the Democrats over the past decade, it seems clear that there are many other sources. We have only recently learned about the surrepticious NGO's spending billions of tax dollars, much of it finding its way back from humanitarian needs to fund activist organizations, political campaigns, and into politicians' pockets.
But there are many other funding sources, including ActBlue, the Blue Tent, and of course, many corporations. There is plenty of money. Even the Mexican Cartels are aiding the efforts to dismember the Federal Government. Paid activists can earn $100,000+ per year. Organizations can have professionally printed signs, t-shirts, and other paraphernalia ready at a moment's notice to add energy to protests.
Then the revelations made in Minneapolis were a game-changer.
Worse, only recently have we learned of a coordinated, fraudulent scheme on a massive, egregious, and continuing scale to gain billions of taxpayer dollars. It seems like a dark, bottomless pit. The crime spree is going on in Minneapolis with the Somalis stealing up to $18 Billion with a scheme that includes fake day care centers, or in LA, where that scheme involves fake hospices, taking hundreds of millions in Federal funds for non-existent or ghost hospices. We are learning that similar schemes have been operating in other places, including Washington, Maine, and Michigan, within the Somali and Afghan communities.
Americans are learning they are more than taxpayers, but are "fraud payers" on a scale no one would have thought possible.
The other point is that without Trump and Musk in office, we would not have learned of it. The corruption is so deep across the bureaucracy, and the resistance so strong, that the chances are we would not learn about it in our lifetime. We now know that Democrat politicians at the mayor, governor, and the Democratic Federal Executive Administration and Federal bureaucracy levels would pay little or no heed to the incredible theft of taxpayer funds.
The level of corruption is only beginning to be uncovered. Still, it will certainly be in the tens of billions, and possibly hundreds of billions of dollars, when including all the COVID-era fraud by pharmaceutical and medical organizations, SNAP and health welfare benefits, and fake fronts… like day care centers, fake hospices, job training centers, housing for illegals.
It is mind-blowing that it could happen in these amounts and over many years. Apparently, they moved as much as $10-18 Billion by shipping millions of dollars in cash in travelers' luggage and boxes over 4 years from the airports in MN and OH.
How? The airline agents, TSA agents, and luggage-handlers are mostly Somalis. The cash went to Somalia, China, and other parts of the world, including some terrorist organizations.
The activist leadership on the ground in Minneapolis during these latest protests wants to bait law enforcement (LEOs) into doing something on camera that will feed the media the narrative they want. Regardless of the law, LEOs are open targets. No matter how crazy or dangerous the protesters' actions may be, the objective is more important than the means. If someone dies, so be it, as long as it hits the social media and main media with a devastating effect.
Protesters are pawns. They can be and are sacrificed.
But once the noise/bedlam is over, they simply move to another target-rich environment – another city or state where activists can create conflict and gain attention. Such sites have included in the past, Seattle, Portland, Oshkosh, Chicago, Minneapolis, and Washington DC.
In Minneapolis, the other apparent reason for all the chaos is to distract from the Somali fraud under investigation.
For this writer, this entire episode of protests, fraud, and criminality is so very disheartening. We have allowed uneducated foreigners to come into our country illegally, not assimilate, not even learn the language, but have learned how to steal us blind.
We have been fools.
Yes, some think we should save the world. Or that we should show empathy towards illegal aliens, and we should understand that they are simply victims.
These are false virtues that create evil actions.
The Democrat Socialists have worked hard to create all this mess to gain power. The more mayhem, the more they love it. They want the votes of illegals; they want voters to reject our culture, our Constitution, our way of life, and in the end, they want to be the single political party in control, just as they do in NY, WA, CA, MA, and VT.
In other words, they demand permanent domination.
I quote LTG MIchael Flynn:
”What is being signaled is permission. Permission to excuse bloodshed when it serves the cause. Permission to dehumanize political opponents while retaining the language of compassion. Permission to treat some victims as warnings rather than as human beings. In intelligence terms, this is moral conditioning. The purpose is not to incite violence directly, but to lower resistance to it by laundering it after the fact through narrative, context, and selective outrage. This pattern is not fringe behavior. It is reinforced at scale through media, social platforms, and institutional silence. Silence, in this environment, functions as approval. Over time, repeated exposure trains audiences to accept the unacceptable so long as it is ideologically aligned. Violence becomes wrong in principle but negotiable in practice. That is the hallmark of insurgent-style information warfare, not democratic disagreement.”
When they get dominate power, they will ensure it by making Puerto Rico and DC states, they will expand the SCOTUS to be dysfunctional at 13 or 15 Justices, they will regulate/limit capitalism like Communists do in China, Cuba, or Vietnam, and greatly change the basic assumptions of our society: private ownership, freedom of speech, gun ownership, family values and rights, and for sure, they will raise income, wealth, and other taxes in many different ways to confiscate earnings, and so much more that has failed miserably in the Big Blue Sanctuary Cities.
Democrats have leveraged the age of rage to create ugly situations and gain citizen rejection of corrective actions. That allows government officials, politicians, illegals, and even criminals to continue the plundering of America, no matter who it hurts.
Republicans have shown they have no idea of the real intentions of the Democrat Socialists. They are weak.
We have become so lax in our expectations, weak in our need for accountability, and the requirement for enforcement of laws, that we have allowed those with evil intentions an easy path to rape, rob, pillage, and murder us.
It is disgusting. It is real. It is continuing.
I can only hope that Trump, who moved the rock, can tackle all the cockroaches he has uncovered.
