American Values
Exploiting Ukraine
We all know how Joe Biden and the socialist left exploited the COVID pandemic and used it as an excuse to restrict our liberties. They also used it as a bludgeon against conservatives. But if we can lose our liberties during a time of crisis, the left will always make sure we're in a crisis.
Well, just as we seem to be turning the corner on COVID, we find ourselves in another crisis with Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
And sure enough, left-wing politicians like Nancy Pelosi and Stacey Abrams are trying to exploit this crisis, too. They are suggesting that the battle for democracy in Ukraine is just like their battle to "save democracy in America" from conservatives.
That is a disgusting libel.
Well, Joe Biden went to Wisconsin this week and told an audience that the reason Putin invaded Ukraine was because of January 6th. Yes, he really said that. Biden argued that when Putin saw how divided we were and saw the mob outside the Capitol, he concluded we were too weak to stop him.
I'll guarantee you we will hear this argument made over and over the closer we get to November. It is, of course, a ridiculous argument.
Clearly, we are deeply divided as a nation. A big reason we're so divided is because Joe Biden and the radical left have intentionally stoked the divisions. The left has done everything it can to increase racial tensions in America. It has undermined respect for law enforcement in every way possible.
Vladimir Putin didn't need to see the unpleasantness of January 6th to know how divided we are. Putin watched for four years how viciously the American left attacked Donald Trump for wanting to make America great. Their response was, "America was never great." (Here, here and here.)
Now the anti-American left is in charge. Do you think Putin learned anything from that?
Putin watched the left impeach Trump twice and push the false narrative that Russia was responsible for Trump's election, which we know was the worst hoax in history.
Putin watched leftist youth pull down statues of our heroes, and he saw the political and media establishment defend them.
He watched violent rioting in dozens of our cities throughout the summer of 2020, and he saw the political and media establishment defend it, while liberal mayors refused to call out the National Guard.
So, yes, the frayed fabric of America's culture and civil discourse no doubt figures into the calculations of our enemies. But those enemies feared Donald Trump, and they laugh at the naivety of Joe Biden and the American left.
