Roma Locuta Est

January 20, 2021 (Steven O’Reilly) – January 20, 2021…a day which will live in infamy, the day Joe Biden was inaugurated “president” of the United States.  Running side-by-side with this day, will be the night of November 3rd, the night the election was stolen. Under the pretense of COVID, executive branch officials across a number of key battleground states violated election procedures passed by the legislative branches of those states in a number of ways that opened up the process to fraud on a massive scale, never before seen in the history of this country.

Biden’s presidential campaign was utterly improbable on its face. He is known for his bizarre behavior around little girls or women not his wife (see here). Biden is a man with clear signs of diminished mental abilities if not dementia, who spent much of his time hidden away in the basement on zoom calls, or talking to small groups of individuals, each sitting in neatly chalked, white circles. As many have noted, Biden’s campaign apparently lacked the traditional “ground game” said to be vitally important for any successful Democratic presidential campaign — yet, without it, he miraculously received 11 million more votes than did Barrack Obama when he was elected in a historic election.  And this, despite the fact Trump received record numbers of votes from both Hispanic and African Americans.

Unfortunately, an alliance of mainstream media, Big Tech, and political elites conspired from the beginning to aid the Biden campaign.  He was never hounded to hold meaningful press conferences, or answer tough questions raised about his or his son’s shady financial dealings with China, the Ukraine, or others. In older days, an adversarial and skeptical press corp. — crucial for a free and democratic country — would have pulled out the popcorn as they relentlessly pursued such hot stories about the Bidens’ deals with China, etc.  Journalistic careers used to be made on such things. The guard dogs of democracy which tore down Nixon are no more than the lap dogs of their corporate masters, yapping at whomever is pointed out to them. So, instead of latching on to such stories like a bull dog, the mainstream media and Big Tech squashed the laptop story.  Twitter, for example, simply would not allow the original story by the New York Post to run on its site; and or made distribution of other stories either difficult or impossible on its platform.  YouTube did the same. No one can doubt that a fair and thorough airing of the Hunter laptop story would have deep-sixed the Biden campaign—but that is precisely the reason there was a conspiracy to crush the story.

This conspiracy of the MSM, Big Tech, and the political elites continued on past November 3rd. It swept under the rug any meaningful discussions or hearings of the challenges to the results. And here, I am not even talking about alleged irregularities with voting machines in certain places.  The laws and rules pass by legislatures in many of these battleground states were simply disregarded. This is clear and evident, and beyond any dispute. Yet, the Supreme Court maintained a strange silence on important constitutional questions which cry out for resolution to this day. Is the enforcement, or implementation of election laws to remain arbitrary, subject to the caprice of the executive branch or state courts? It appears so. The MSM and Big Tech, playing Big Brother dutifully, either ignored a discussion of legal challenges, or squashed attempts to distribute stories, and or labeled the stories as suspect. The stage is set for more election abuses and controversies unless there is meaningful election reform.

The globalist party in this country (and abroad?) did all in its power to stop Donald J. Trump from getting elected, and having failed at that, to oust him by whatever means necessary. Biden has not been elected, he has been selected by an oligarchy which has gamed the American electoral system.  In retrospect, it should not have come as a surprise that they would dare to do so on such a grand scale. After all, as the Russia hoax, Special Counsel, and Impeachment investigations have made clear, “they” did not shrink from corrupting other institutions within the government, including the FBI, CIA, NSA, Department of Justice, and the US military. It was only a matter of time before they made election corruption a science.  And Biden was there all along, a figure in all of these scandals…whether at the outset of the Russia hoax, or a figure lurking in the shadows of the Ukraine-related impeachment, or the stolen election — whether as the beneficiary of the coverup of the Hunter laptop scandal, or the beneficiary of a multi-state election steal.

Then of course came the riot on Capitol Hill on January 6th.  Here the oligarchy sought yet one more way to prevent Trump from ever engaging in the American political process…because they fear him. They want to impeach Trump again–for ‘inciting the riot’– because they fear he could win, should the terms of an election ever be fair again. But let us be clear. Anyone who broke laws on Capitol Hill that day, or conspired too, needs to be investigated and prosecuted in a fashion similar to others who may have entered Capitol grounds or offices before in violation of the law.

Yet, there is much that is strange about the events on Capitol Hill that day.  For example, the Capitol Police were not reinforced, and there are indications they removed some of the barriers for protesters.  What about the BLM and Antifa types who seemed to contribute to the events, if not inciting it themselves. What did the FBI know beforehand?  Who did they communicate it to?  What did Speaker Pelosi know beforehand? What role did she play in failing to protect the Capitol with enough forces?  Was Pelosi hoping to create an event?

Yet, somehow, this riot on Capitol Hill is the great assault on our American Republic, or so the elites in media and politics want all to believe; forgetting as they do all the rioting, mayhem, destruction, and death caused by the BLM and Antifa riots. Then, the media trumpeted those “mostly peaceful” protests, and the oligarchs came to the political defense of the rioters, even contributing to bails funds (as our new VP did at the time). This they did, even though those riots caused the greatest amount of financial and property losses than any other set of riots in American history.  It must be remembered that these BLM and Antifa riots assaulted average American citizens, law enforcement officers, monuments of American history and heroes, Christian monuments, the businesses of average American citizens, police stations, and court houses; and yet, the oligarchs only noticed when their place of work on Capitol Hill was “assaulted.”  Only then…did they muster indignation at the assault on law and order, and the foundations of the Republic.  If the two political sides in this country cannot at least speak to one another in a common language, to call evil evil, to call a riot a riot, and criminality criminality wherever it occurs, and by whomever it is perpetrated; then the Republic is likely doomed.

With the inauguration of His Fraudulency, Joe Biden, millions of Americans have lost confidence in our electoral system, our institutions and government agencies. On this day, and for the rest of his term, Joe Biden is a Usurper. This is a dark day which promises to be the first of many as Biden enacts his policies which will see more abortions, increased illegal immigration, more BLM/Antifa rioting, more COVID lockdowns and restrictions, more economic disruptions, kowtowing to China/CCP, more censorship, more political correctness at work, more national debt, and more persecution of Christians — in brief, more lawlessness.  This no surprise. As lawlessness was the foundation of Biden’s career, wealth, and election; lawlessness will be the  inevitable fruit.

However, as bleak as it all is, as Americans and Christians, we should not give up. We must not give up. It is, as they say, ‘darkest before the dawn.’ We need to pray. We need to be more connected with our Faith, our parishes, and with our friends, and with others of like beliefs in order encourage one another, and to organize for positive, lawful action.  Now is not the time to hide away and sulk, much less to give up or surrender to the left, which seeks to overthrow what remains of western civilization in this country. We need to act in any positive, lawful way one can within one’s ability and talents, e.g., getting involved more in our communities, politics, etc., more so than we ever have before. Become an agent of positive, lawful change.  It’s time to take our country back.

‘Always pray…never give up’ (Luke 18:1).

God Bless America.
