This quote comes from the Jewish Virtual Library. It is taken from a speech, delivered in 1942, given on the 19th Anniversary of the “Beer Hall Putsch”, by German Chancellor Adolph Hitler.
The Beer Hall Putsch was an incident that took place on November 8, 1923, when Nazi troops under the direction of Hermann Goering surrounded the a beer hall in Munich, Germany. At 8:30 p.m., Hitler and his storm troopers burst into the beer hall causing instant panic. Hitler announced to the crowd that the Revolution had begun, and went to the back room of the hall to try to persuade the local officials to capitulate to him. They wouldn’t. Hitler’s attempt to seize power that night failed. But, thanks to word of mouth, and Hitler’s use of propaganda, a seed was planted, that would eventually lead to World War II.
By now, you are probably asking:
Okay. So what does this have to do with anything?
Hitler eventually rose to power by praying upon the economic despair, hopelessness, and avarice of the German people, whose country was savaged by the Great Depression of 1929.
Hitler chose his nations Jewish Population as his scapegoat, blaming them for Germany’s plight. He soon attracted legions of young men, swayed by his propaganda, who began to march the streets of Germany, intimidating anyone who dared to disagree with them.
Hitler formed a political party, naming it The National Socialist Party, which led to he and his thugs being called “Nazis”.
The era became known as the “Rise of Fascism”.
Fast forward to July 16, 2019…
FoxNews.com reports that
The Democrat-controlled House of Representatives passed a resolution Tuesday evening condemning President Trump’s “racist” remarks this weekend — although the moment was largely overshadowed by a dramatic floor fight earlier in the day that ended with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ruled out of order for a breach of decorum.
The unexpected mayhem in Congress, which briefly resulted in the revocation of Pelosi’s speaking privileges on the House floor, left commentators and lawmakers stunned. “So, Democrats vote to break House rules and decorum, so that they can call Trump out on decorum. Surreal,” wrote Wall Street Journal columnist Kimberley Strassel.
The final resolution, entitled “H. Res. 489 — Condemning President Trump’s racist comments directed at Members of Congress,” passed by a vote of 240-187. All Democrats voted yea, with Republicans joining them: Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick, Will Hurd, Fred Upton and Susan Brooks.
Michigan Rep. Justin Amash, who recently left the Republican Party after calling for Trump’s impeachment, also voted yes. The rest of the Republicans voted no.
The resolution asserted that “President Donald Trump’s racist comments have legitimized fear and hatred of new Americans and people of color.” The document mentioned Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton and James Madison, and quoted luminaries such as Benjamin Franklin, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, President John Kennedy and President Ronald Reagan.
Trump had tweeted on Sunday that unnamed “Democrat Congresswomen” should go back and fix the “corrupt” and “crime infested places” from which they came and then “come back and show us how it’s done.” He later all but affirmed he was referring to Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and Ayanna Pressley — all of whom, except Omar, were born in the United States.
But, what Democrat leaders envisioned as a moment of Democrat unity turned out to be a striking display of disarray. As Pelosi spoke in favor of the resolution on the floor, she used frank and unsparing terms about Trump’s comments — and soon became the story herself.
“There is no place anywhere for the president’s words, which are not only divisive, but dangerous — and have legitimized and increased fear and hatred of new Americans and people of color,” Pelosi, D-Calif., said. “It’s so sad because you would think that there would be a given that we would universally, in this body, just say, ‘Of course. Of course.'”
Pelosi continued, her voice rising: “There’s no excuse for any response to those words but a swift and strong unified condemnation. Every single member of this institution, Democratic and Republican, should join us in condemning the president’s racist tweets. To do anything less would be a shocking rejection of our values, and a shameful abdication of our oath of office to protect the American people. I urge a unanimous vote, and yield back the balance of my time.”
Georgia Republican Rep. Doug Collins rose to challenge her and demand that her words be “taken down.” The extraordinary rebuke was the first of its kind involving a member of Congress and a speaker of the House in decades.
Collins immediately stood and asked if Pelosi wanted to “rephrase that comment.”
“I have cleared my remarks with the parliamentarian before I read them,” Pelosi claimed, before walking away to applause.
“Can I ask the words be taken down? I make a point of order that the gentlewoman’s words are unparliamentary and be taken down,” Collins said.
“The chair will remind all members, please, please, do not make personality-based comments,” Cleaver said.
Collins then repeated his request to strike Pelosi’s comments. For more than 30 minutes after Collins’ objection, House members were huddled with the parliamentarian, Thomas J. Wickham Jr., to determine next steps.
As the consultation dragged on, Pelosi then appeared to leave the House floor, which itself constituted a violation of House Rules when someone’s words were taken down. Members are supposed to be seated on the floor when a member’s words are stricken.
The scene then became even more bizarre when the chair, Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Mo., told representatives after the lengthy huddle that he was trying to make a fair ruling as to whether Pelosi had broken House rules governing decorum, but people weren’t cooperating. Cleaver explained to Fox News he felt Pelosi was being singled out.
Cleaver simply declared, “I abandon the chair,” and left — a moment with no apparent precedent in modern congressional history. North Carolina Rep. G.K. Butterfield, also a Democrat, assumed the chair, before Hoyer took the reins.
Hoyer eventually assumed the chair upon Pelosi’s request so that a Democrat leader, and not a rank-and-file member, could take control. Hoyer eventually read the parliamentarian’s ruling that, based on the precedent “of May 15, 1984,” Pelosi’s language did not meet the standard.
“The words used by the gentlewoman from California contained an accusation of racist behavior on the part of the President,” Hoyer said, affirming the House parliamentarian’s decision and technically banning Pelosi from speaking on the House floor for the rest of the day.
“The words should not be used in debate,” Hoyer said.
Since President Trump tweeted the truth about the “Four Horsewomen of the Apocalypse”, as I have named them, or “The Squad”, as they named themselves, there has been a lot of hand-wringing and unfounded cries of racism by both Democrats and “Moderate” Republicans who were never really sure of his ability to lead our nation to begin with.
Let’s step back and analyze exactly what has transpired over the last few days.
The president of the United States of America took to Twitter and called out four anti-American Marxists for their continuous criticism and visceral hatred for America and its majority population
The Democrats, in return, declared Trump’s tweets to be racist in nature, even though the races of those he targeted were never mentioned.
To paraphrase Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.,
“The tweets were not about the color of their skins. But rather, about the content of their characters.”
Since personal responsibility in anathema to the Far Left Democratic Party, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who was until now locked in a war with the Four Horsewomen over control of the House of Representatives, started defending their anti-American behavior, including erroneously calling the President a “racist” from the floor of the House, a breach of house protocol and decorum.
Democrats, after being pressured to by Rep. Doug Collins and other House Republicans, had Pelosi’s words stricken from the Congressional Record.
However, the damage was already done…to the Democrats.
President Trump has access to all sorts of political polls, external and internal. He knew that the overwhelming majority of Americans thing that the “Four Horsewomen” stink on ice.
Trump knew exactly what was going to happen when he sent the tweets attacking them.
He knew that the House Democrats would rally around them and come after him.
In other words, Trump made Pelosi and the self-proclaimed “Moderate” Establishment Democrats defend the radical anti-American Far Left Marxist “Gang of 4”, forever linking them together in the eyes of American Voters.
Trump did not become a billionaire and then the President of the United States of America by being stupid.
Just like Hitler and his National Socialist Party’s Beer Hall Putsch revealed their true nature to the German people, so did yesterday’s Congressional Chaos reveal who the Democrats actually are.
They are Socialists, too.
Until He Comes,
