Chapter 8

Stolen Election, Fake Insurrection

From the book America Under Attack
By Gerald Flurry

In an October 2020 interview, Joe Biden said, “We have put together … the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.” He obviously did not intend to say that, but it is hard to ignore when extensive, organized voter fraud is precisely what brought him to power.

It is practically an open secret that radical Democrats stole the 2020 United States presidential election. One month after the election, a Quinnipiac University poll of 978 registered voters nationwide found that 77 percent of Republicans believed there was widespread voter fraud during the election, and 34 percent of all registered voters thought Biden’s win was illegitimate. And the share of Americans who view Joe Biden as a fake president has only gone up since. An Axios poll of 2,649 registered voters taken in January 2022 found that more than 40 percent of Americans do not believe Biden legitimately won the election. That indicates over 100 million Americans believe the election was stolen, including a lot of Democrats. In fact, many Democrats know it was stolen.

Official totals show a record 74.2 million people voted for President Donald Trump—nearly 5 million more than any candidate in American history. Yet somehow, Joe Biden officially received 7 million more votes than that. He won 12 million more votes than Barack Obama did.

This official total was not reached because of an unprecedented swell of enthusiasm for a singularly capable and attractive presidential candidate. Joe Biden was a 47-year career politician prone to gaffes and linked to corruption, who mostly campaigned from his basement. Biden’s vote count was reached by careful planning, blatant lawlessness, rank corruption, shameless deceit and pervasive propaganda.

Information on the extent of the voter fraud is copious. One of the better sources is the third volume of Dr. Peter Navarro’s study on electoral fraud. It uncovered 3,069,002 “possible illegal votes” in just the swing states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Since Joe Biden’s “victory” margin in all of these states combined was a 10th of that (312,992 votes), no reasonable person can conclude the presidential election was free and fair, much less “the most secure election in American history,” as leftists in politics and the media keep insisting.

Yet America’s justice system refused to investigate voter fraud. The Trump administration filed at least 63 lawsuits alleging fraud in several states. Almost all of these suits were thrown out—not on the merits, but over technicalities.

As a number of reports, statistical analyses, documentaries and other sources have established, the 2020 presidential election was plagued by voter fraud. It was organized. It was extensive. It was extreme, defiant and flagrant. And there was someone behind it who had the power, motive and gall to commit the greatest electoral steal in history. It was not Joe Biden, but he knows exactly who it was.

What was worth committing such treason for?

The main goal was to restore to power the political machinery of Barack Obama. He and his operatives worked furiously during the Trump presidency, during his reelection bid, and especially during the election itself.

Pulling Strings

Barack Obama was the first president in more than a century to stay in Washington, D.C., after leaving office. All other presidents left the capital out of respect for their successor, the presidency and the nation. Why did Obama remain? In March 2017, Britain’s Daily Mail wrote that Obama’s home, just a few miles from the White House, had become the “nerve center of the mounting insurgency against his successor, President Donald J. Trump.”

This British paper could recognize exactly what was happening: Headquartered in D.C., this man was commanding the radical left the entire time. Mr. Obama was personally involved in seeking to overthrow President Trump! Insurgency is the right word.

In March 2020, Obama guided the selection of Joe Biden as the Democratic presidential nominee. For example, he directly called Pete Buttigieg after he pulled out of the race and asked him to endorse Biden. His aides made similar calls to candidates Amy Klobuchar and Elizabeth Warren.

Between March and November, Obama and his team campaigned hard for Joe Biden. Biden’s vice president, Kamala Harris, was also hand-selected by Mr. Obama.

Barack Obama kept his name out of most of the headlines, but he was exerting his power constantly. His destructive leadership is unparalleled in U.S. history! The only reason more people cannot recognize this is that Satan’s deception in the world has reached unprecedented intensity. Most people cannot see the spiritual dimension of this crisis at all.

These radicals pushed for major and unconstitutional changes to election laws, and they implemented election procedures that outright violated existing laws. They used electronic voting systems with poor security. They demanded massive expansion of the use of obviously fraud-prone mail-in ballots. We now know that much of the fraud was committed with these mail-in votes. To take just one example, undercover journalist organization Project Veritas discovered thousands of registered voters in Georgia who all shared a single address across the street from Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s office at the state capitol.

By November 3, the radical left was ready to manipulate an election.

Election Day

As the left-wing media had predicted and planned for, on Election Day Donald Trump got off to a huge lead, taking crucial swing states Florida and Ohio. Rarely do candidates lose when they win those two states. Time later published an article by Molly Ball titled “The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election.” Ball explained Democrats’ reaction to Trump’s massive lead: “Election Night began with many Democrats despairing. Trump was running ahead of preelection polling, winning Florida, Ohio and Texas easily and keeping Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania too close to call” (Feb. 4, 2021).

Ball explained that Democratic leaders and left-wing activists joined a video call together at 11 p.m. that evening to discuss what to do. Activists were standing by, ready to take to the streets if the election didn’t swing in Biden’s favor.

Then, at 11:20, Fox News decided to call Arizona for Biden while a large portion of the vote was still out, especially in Republican-leaning Maricopa County. Meanwhile, Fox refused to call states like Ohio and Florida, where Donald Trump was ahead by large margins and a higher percentage of the vote was in. Arizona would be the first state to “flip” in the 2020 election, and this proved to be the beginning of a momentum shift.

Many people went to bed the night of November 3 thinking Donald Trump had won the election handily, only to wake up the next morning to see swing states like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan and Georgia flip to Joe Biden.

What happened over the next few days was unlike anything America had ever seen. Stunningly, Democrats had been “warning” people for months to expect exactly what happened. How did they know?

In Fulton County, Georgia, the state’s largest and most corrupt county, mail-in ballots were counted at the State Farm arena. On the evening of November 3, officials at the arena said they were finished counting ballots for the night and that poll watchers and the media needed to leave. But a few poll workers stayed behind and—illegally—continued counting ballots without poll watchers present. Video footage showed poll workers running ballots through counting machines multiple times. A corresponding spike in Biden votes put him even with President Trump. Over the following days, Democrats managed to produce enough ballots to give Biden the victory by about 11,000 votes.

In Pennsylvania, President Trump watched a 600,000-vote lead evaporate overnight. In Pittsburgh, poll workers were told to stop counting and return in the morning. In Philadelphia, heavily Democratic precincts would not allow Republican poll watchers to observe the counting process in defiance of court orders. Democrats control the state’s supreme court and the executive office, so it is difficult to uncover any wrongdoing.

In Detroit, Michigan, like in Fulton County, mail-in ballots were all processed at one central location, the tcf Center. Surveillance footage showed a white van pulling into the facility in the early morning hours, long after the deadline had passed for ballots to be submitted. Men unloaded boxes of mail-in ballots from the van. Attorney General Barr later said he looked into the matter and was told this was just how elections in Detroit are handled. Really? As tensions rose at the tcf Center over the following days, poll watchers and the media were prohibited from observing the counting process. Poll workers put up cardboard to cover windows where counting was taking place.

Similarly in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, mail-in ballots were delivered to the counting center in the middle of the night. Each time the mail-in ballots were counted, Trump’s lead would disappear. In Green Bay, Wisconsin, Democrats actually had keys to the ballot storage rooms! This is because the city was given a million-dollar grant by a Democratic nonprofit that made the money conditional on their chosen people being able to run parts of the election process in cities like Green Bay. That same nonprofit gave a disproportionate amount of money to Democratic strongholds in swing states.

These are just a few of the alarming, unprecedented events that took place on Election Night.

There is also the statistical data showing how unusual Biden’s so-called victory really was, including his losing 18 of the 19 “bellwether counties” and underperforming in Democratic areas outside of the swing states.

In addition, a great deal of suspicious and lawless behavior suggests Democrats are running perhaps the greatest cover-up in American history. Democrats threatened violence to prevent Republicans from investigating the election. In Michigan, Democrats threatened the children of county officials who said they would refuse to certify the election because there were so many irregularities. In Maricopa County, Arizona, county officials refused to hand over hard drives with 2020 election information to auditors in defiance of a court order. In Georgia, video footage shows people depositing multiple ballots into drop boxes in violation of state laws. Filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza produced a documentary in 2022 titled 2000 Mules exposing the Democrats’ strategy of stuffing drop boxes with mail-in ballots.

All this was covered up by media outlets. They were complicit in the fraud! On Election Day, the New York Times tweeted, “The role of declaring the winner of a presidential election in the U.S. falls to the news media.” It quickly retracted that post, but that says all you need to know about how they think.

On November 7, 2020, despite all the irregularities and evidence of crimes, leftist news corporations, in coordination, declared Joe Biden America’s next president.

‘Joebama’

When Biden and Harris nominated and appointed individuals for executive offices in the new administration, many of these people were either close to Obama or had been part of his administration. In a November 23, 2020, interview with Politico, Mr. Obama was pleased. “You’re seeing a team develop that I have great confidence in,” he said. Of course he had great confidence in them: They were his people! Obama even admitted that 90 percent of Biden’s cabinet was composed of his people.

In the Epoch Times, Lee Smith wrote, “Obama wants it understood that Biden is an avatar for a third Obama term. Now he can complete the work of ‘fundamentally transforming America,’ as he put it days before the 2008 election” (Nov. 17, 2020).

Freddy Gray, editor of Spectator usa, used the term Joebama to describe the incoming presidency. “Obama sounds a bit of a World King these days, but you can’t blame him for feeling chipper. … [H]is great nemesis Donald Trump appears finally to have been vanquished—and his gang is taking charge of Washington again. … In fact, the incoming Biden administration is arguably more Obamaish than the original Obama administration was” (Nov. 28, 2020). One Biden campaign staff member even told Politico, “The Obama staffers are now cutting out the people who got Biden elected.”

By mid-December, what amounted to a third Obama administration was ready to move back into the White House.

The most remarkable part was, most Americans had no problem with this. Obama’s presence in Biden’s election campaign, victory and appointments never received the scrutiny it deserved. To most people—especially the mainstream media, which swoons over Obama—it was a positive factor. But prophetically, it is a huge concern. Antiochus was illegally, treasonously, taking back control, and most Americans didn’t seem to care. Obama’s plan was to end up back in the White House—at the very least as the puppet master directing Joe Biden and Kamala Harris—to pursue his great goal to fundamentally transform America.

Obama himself said this in an interview with comedian Stephen Colbert in November 2020: “People would ask me, knowing what you know now, do you wish you had a third term? And I used to say, if I could make an arrangement where I had a stand-in, a front man or a front woman, and they had an earpiece in, and I was just in my basement in my sweats looking through the stuff, and I could sort of deliver the lines but somebody else was doing all the talking and ceremony, I would be fine with that because I found the work fascinating.” Mr. Obama has made other similar statements indicating his desire to wield power.

Jesus said, “[O]ut of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh” (Matthew 12:34).

The 2020 election steal put this man very much back in control, ready to rule through an illegitimate president.

An Effort to Obtain Justice

In the weeks after the election, one legal challenge after another was ignored, denied or defeated, even by the Supreme Court. Then, two weeks before the inauguration, Congress met to certify the election results on January 6, 2021.

A “Save America” rally of about 200,000 people gathered in Washington to protest the election fraud and theft. President Trump addressed the crowd and said he knew the attendees would march to the Capitol to “peacefully and patriotically” make their voices heard.

Crowds did make their way to the Capitol. Videos show police spraying tear gas on people who were protesting peacefully. Some people began to clash with police. Despite Democrats’ efforts to suppress key security footage, plenty of video and eyewitness accounts reveal that the Capitol was lightly guarded, “restricted area” signs were moved early on, and police admitted protesters into the building. They were trying to incite the crowd. Some protesters smashed windows, some vandalized Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s office, and some entered the Senate Chamber. Others in the crowd tried to stop the vandals and trespassers and pleaded with police to do more to stop them. Members of Congress evacuated for a few hours as police resecured the building.

The protesters killed no one, and not one used a gun. The only shooting victim was Ashli Babbitt, an unarmed protester who presented no danger at all but was shot and killed by a Capitol Police officer. When the blood flows like that, it becomes more sobering.

This was an ugly day in American history. People who committed wrongs such as vandalizing that great historic building should be reprimanded appropriately. After the Capitol was breached, President Trump himself told protesters to maintain law and order, to support law enforcement, and to “go home now.” He later urged “no violence, no lawbreaking and no vandalism of any kind.”

But radical elites in government and media seized on this unruly protest. They took an incident involving people who committed misdemeanor trespassing to protest a treasonous election and called it an assault on American democracy worse than Pearl Harbor, 9/11, or anything else since the Civil War. They branded it an insurrection and used it to target their political enemies for censoring, smearing, silencing, boycotting, prosecuting, imprisoning and worse. They used it as a weapon to utterly destroy their opposition.

It has become one of the most chilling examples of the attack on America.

Rosenberg’s Admission

On March 8–9, 2022, two important videos were published that were largely overlooked. They were produced by Project Veritas, which investigates and exposes corruption and fraud, often by tricking people into divulging information and secretly recording them. These two videos show Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Matthew Rosenberg in a conversation about his employer, the New York Times.

Rosenberg is a national security correspondent. He was outside the U.S. Capitol on January 6 with two other colleagues, “and we were just having fun,” he said. He also said, “I know I’m supposed to be traumatized,” and he mocked other journalists who “keep going on about their trauma” over being at the Capitol that day. He said they were “not in any danger” and were misrepresenting the situation. He said the crowd was not organized and that “[t]here were a ton of fbi informants among the people who attacked the Capitol.”

Rosenberg was admitting the truth and contradicting what the New York Times had been saying for more than a year: The protest on January 6, 2021, was not an organized insurrection by Trump supporters.

But radicals in politics and the media acted as if everyone had been traumatized. On January 7, Pelosi ordered a fence erected around the Capitol and brought in the National Guard, keeping troops there for months. People arrested for trespassing, who might not have even known they were trespassing, have been treated like terrorists, held in jail for months without trial. They were not executing an insurrection on January 6; they were protesting the insurrection of November 3!

Rosenberg is no conservative. But as he pointed out some comparatively minor wrongs committed on that day, he said, “[T]he left’s overreaction … to it, in some places, was so over the top.” Yes, there were wrongs committed, but they were very minor compared to an insurrection. And many or most of them were instigated by leftists who infiltrated the protest to create trouble!

What Was the FBI Doing There?

It has emerged that radical-leftist activists including Antifa and Black Lives Matter had infiltrated the crowd, pretending to be Trump supporters and trying to cause Antifa-style violence.

John Sullivan, a well-known leftist agitator who founded a group named Insurgence usa, is seen in video footage wearing a Trump hat outside the building and attempting to incite the crowd to anger. He was also recorded inside at the scene of the fatal shooting. He is one of the individuals who smashed the window in the Speaker’s Lobby while officers on the other side had their weapons drawn. This was the window that Ashli Babbitt then tried to climb through when she was shot. When the officer pulled the trigger and she fell to the floor bleeding from the neck, Sullivan was within feet of her, recording video. He reportedly began claiming she was dead, though this probably was not the case at the time and police who were immediately on the scene said they could save her. Even as blood was spilled, Sullivan was trying to whip up the crowd and make a bad situation worse. Later that day, Sullivan went on camera, including at cnn, to give his account of the violence inside the Capitol. The interviewers did not question what he, a leftist agitator, was doing there.

More and more evidence is emerging that deep state agents wanted people like Sullivan to cause trouble and that leftist media were eager to portray this as something it wasn’t.

For example, among the January 6 crowd were numerous fbi informants. Footage from before the protest shows one man, Ray Epps, directly inciting protesters to go inside the Capitol. The crowd around him yelled, “No!” and began chanting, “Fed!” They recognized that their own government was trying to turn their protest violent. It has since been revealed that there were about 100 fbi agitators in that crowd!

Why? This is deeply disturbing. What were they trying to accomplish? How many of the instigators were people working with the fbi?

When Fox News reported on those Rosenberg videos, it covered the fact that he said the danger that day was drastically exaggerated, but it did not even discuss his comment that “there were a ton of fbi informants.” It appears network executives instructed their journalists not to discuss that. That is at Fox News, which is supposed to be conservative. The New York Times and America’s other largest news organizations are much more radically liberal. And the executives there are very focused on shaping the narrative surrounding January 6 for an important, specific reason.

Who Gained From January 6?

Inside the Capitol on January 6, 2021, more than 100 members of Congress were ready to oppose the certification of the 2020 presidential election. People in six battleground states had been crying out about significant voter fraud that had occurred. Radicals had committed a massive treasonous act to steal the election, and in some important ways, they had been caught! A great deal of fraud had been uncovered; huge numbers of votes had been stolen in six states. Those 100-plus legislators were ready to address the election crimes that had given Joe Biden an inconceivable 81 million votes. These members of Congress were ready to stand up for the truth and try to stop a stolen election.

But the January 6 protest, and the left’s reaction to it, changed all that.

“… Donald Trump had nothing to gain and everything to lose by the violent assault on the Capitol that day,” Frank Miele wrote for RealClearPolitics. “The only chance of keeping Trump in the White House was not by invading the Capitol, but by keeping it secure while our representatives debated the validity of the election using the entirely constitutional process taking place inside the halls of Congress” (Jan. 3, 2022). That is a critical truth! Donald Trump had nothing at all to gain from an assault on the Capitol that day.

“The electoral votes of at least five states were being challenged—not in a coup, but in a lawful manner also used by Democrats in earlier elections,” Miele continued. Think of the 2000 presidential election between Al Gore and George W. Bush, which came down to certifying the vote in Florida. Gore claimed there was fraud, so Democrats pushed hard for every legal challenge possible to dispute the vote there. But they have shown that they think such recourse is only for Democrats, not Republicans.

On January 6, 2021, “Republican senators and House members had lined up to make the case to the public and their fellow constitutional officers that something was rotten in the states of Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan, and that the election was therefore tainted,” Miele wrote. Everything they sought to do was according to the Constitution. “But the violence outside resulted in a sharply truncated debate inside that was virtually ignored, if not outright mocked or shamed, by the mainstream media. The riot instantly doomed any chance Trump had of prevailing in his argument that the election was stolen” (ibid).

That is the point: Trump had nothing to gain from that violence, but the radical left had everything to gain! The January 6 event ended everything for President Trump. Almost nobody stood up for him, for the Constitution or for America.

Rosenberg seems to think the radical left’s “over the top” reaction to the “insurrection” is unfortunate for less radical leftists. He does not realize that the over-the-top reaction was the point. To cover up their stolen election and certify their treasonous coup, the radicals had to commit more treason. That is why the January 6 protest included “a ton” of fbi informants, and also radical leftists and even fbi agitators: They wanted to use that protest to cover their treason. Radicals stole the 2020 election—then instigated the uglier aspects of January 6—then overreacted to that protest to discredit it and to block all opposition to certifying the stolen election.

Their plan worked perfectly: Those 100 members of Congress and the vice president caved in.

A Lack of Courage

In the speech President Trump gave that day, he made a direct appeal to his vice president, who had a role in certifying the election. “Mike Pence, I hope you’re going to stand up for the good of our Constitution, and for the good of our country,” he said. “And if you’re not, I’m going to be very disappointed in you. I’m going to tell you right now, I’m not hearing good stories.”

After Mr. Pence allowed the fraudulent vote to be certified, President Trump posted on social media: “Mike Pence didn’t have the courage to do what should have been done to protect our country and our Constitution, giving states a chance to certify, correct a set of facts, not the fraudulent and inaccurate ones, which they were asked to previously certify.”

What kind of treachery is that? Would state legislatures continue to fight for the president when even the vice president won’t? Constitutionally, Mr. Pence could have and should have demanded an investigation. But he said: “It is my considered judgment that my oath to support and defend the Constitution constrains me from claiming unilateral authority to determine which electoral votes should be counted, and which should not.”

That was a twisted lie. He was not “supporting and defending the Constitution” by ignoring people in six swing states crying out about fraud everywhere! Criminals had trampled all over the Constitution! Nobody was asking Mr. Pence to change votes: They were asking for lawful protection from stolen votes.

“Pence had the authority as the [vice president] not to certify,” former Trump official Peter Navarro told the Daily Mail (Nov. 1, 2021). He explained that those 100-plus members of Congress were prepared “to call into question the results in the six battleground states, which would yield us 12 hours of televised hearings about all the election irregularities.” These hearings could have “galvanized the American public behind the reality that this election is likely stolen, and all Pence had to do was say there’s enough uncertainty here that we need to send this back to the states and to look at this and then we’ll come back in two weeks and make the decision. That’s all he had to do,” Navarro said.

But the violence brought this plan to an abrupt halt. Republican leaders Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy used “the excuse of the violence on Capitol Hill to halt any further attempt to challenge the election results,” Navarro said.

That is precisely why the radical leftists wanted chaos at the Capitol on that day.

“… Michael Richard Pence will have secured his place in history as the Brutus most responsible both for the final betrayal of President Trump and the unceremonious burial of election integrity,” Navarro said.

These Republican leaders betrayed the president. And the courts, all the way up to the Supreme Court, threw out the legal challenges due to technicalities. They all ran, like Jonah, from their duty.

And because Republicans caved, Joe Biden was inaugurated.

The very afternoon after being sworn in, Joe Biden signed 17 executive orders aimed mainly at destroying what President Trump had done for the American economy, energy, border and education. He has gone on to advance Obama’s agenda of blotting out America’s history, traditions and biblical foundations; allowing immigrants, including criminals and drug smugglers, to pour over the border; spending billions on housing, health care, education and welfare; and sinking this country into $30 trillion in debt. This is plunging the nation into an unprecedented radicalized future.

Impeachment

It takes extreme measures to steal and keep power. But that is what radical leftists, including those in Washington, resorted to.

On January 13, 2021, just one week before Donald Trump’s presidential term expired, the House of Representatives impeached him for his speech on January 6. It was the fastest impeachment in history—and the second impeachment of this president, just 56 weeks after the first. They accused him of “incitement of insurrection,” charging him for “willfully inciting violence against the government of the United States.”

It was a ridiculous charge. Even liberal law professor Jonathan Turley noted that President Trump “never actually called for violence or a riot.” In fact, President Trump had asked for 10,000 National Guardsmen to keep order on January 6. But Pelosi, who is partially in charge of Capitol security, said no, as did the Capitol Police and the mayor of Washington, D.C. (After January 6, however, Pelosi and others called in the Guard and erected a fence as though the area were a high-danger zone.)

Pelosi admitted that this impeachment was partly an attempt to eliminate any chance of Trump holding public office in the future.

Joe Biden was then inaugurated, and Mr. Trump left town. The impeachment case was brought to the Senate, but they failed to reach the necessary two-thirds majority, so the president was acquitted. Still, every Democrat and seven Republican senators voted to convict Mr. Trump. Some Republicans dislike the way President Trump disrupted the political status quo; they want to purge the party of his influence. All these efforts are far more destructive to America than most people realize!

Meanwhile, media and technology executives colluded to use the January 6 riot as a pretext to muzzle Donald Trump. Twitter suspended him that very day. The next day, January 7, former First Lady Michelle Obama wrote an open letter telling tech companies to “stop enabling this monstrous behavior.” In less than 24 hours, the bans started. Twitter banned Mr. Trump permanently so his 88 million Twitter followers could no longer read his messages.[1] Facebook shut down his account. Apple, Discord, Google, Instagram, Pinterest, Reddit, Shopify, Snapchat, Stripe, TikTok, Twitch, YouTube and other major platforms banned or restricted his messages and those of his followers in some form. These great high-tech corporations acted like they were too “righteous” to allow people to read or hear what the president said, when their outlets are full of filth and sewage! Major television networks refused to broadcast the farewell speech of the president of the United States. The political director at abc News said authorities must begin “cleansing the movement” associated with President Trump.

The federal government was already starting its “cleansing.”

Patriot Purge

The fbi launched a nationwide campaign to get people to report those who attended the January 6 protest. The government arrested and jailed Trump supporters for months without giving them a day in court. They won’t address the evidence of radical instigators, federal informants and even federal instigators hijacking a peaceful protest; federal charging documents include a number of unnamed, unindicted coconspirators. (According to Revolver News, the reason some protesters haven’t been indicted is that they are fbi agitators or actual agents.) But they will proclaim that this bunch of tourists was committing “insurrection.”

These were the same people who portrayed the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests in which buildings were burned and people died as “mostly peaceful”!

In February 2023, the incoming Republican House Speaker, Kevin McCarthy, gave Fox News host Tucker Carlson access to the 14,000 hours of footage that were recorded at the January 6 event. The bits that Carlson broadcast made even plainer what was already painfully clear: that the “insurrection” was fake, that the vast majority of the people there were peacefully protesting, and that the way radicals are using that event as a political weapon is diabolical!

One couple was at the Capitol and saw the protest but never went inside the building. They sensed something was not right. After returning home to Alaska, one day, fbi agents knocked on their door. They claimed they were looking for Nancy Pelosi’s laptop, took over their home, confiscated the couple’s pocket copy of the U.S. Constitution, and handcuffed both of them.

The government still has many people in jail who have never been tried—some of them in solitary confinement. We expect this in dictatorships like Russia or China—but America?

Biden’s regime has repeatedly claimed that “terrorism from white supremacy is the most lethal threat to the homeland today” and has attacked patriotism and constitutional principles as “racist” and worse, even within the U.S. military. The regime is monitoring the online activity of military personnel for “extremist behavior.” The effort is led by a man who has said that only racists, misogynists and extremists support Donald Trump. One senator introduced legislation to classify “Make America Great Again” rallies as “domestic terrorist activity.” Even parents upset with school boards indoctrinating their children in sexual perversion are being targeted!

In a good government, the authorities must protect the people most of all. But the American government is not protecting Americans—it is, in fact, purging the patriots! These elites are committing crimes and treason and treating everyday Americans like criminals and traitors!

We are getting a good look at what 21st-century authoritarianism looks like. And it is being driven by former Obama administration agents led, behind the scenes, by Barack Obama.

Jonah

Look again at the prophecy in 2 Kings 14. Verses 23 and 25 say, “In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel began to reign in Samaria, and reigned forty and one years. … He restored the coast of Israel from the entering of Hamath unto the sea of the plain, according to the word of the Lord God of Israel, which he spake by the hand of his servant Jonah, the son of Amittai, the prophet, which was of Gathhepher.”

The Prophet Jonah prophesied that Jeroboam would intervene and save the kingdom of Israel. This shows that God had a prophet on the scene during this crucial period in Israel’s history. God was there, and so was His prophet, letting everybody know that He was involved and that He would not let the name of Israel be blotted out!

The reference to Jonah in 2 Kings 14:25 is encouraging. God wants us to know, amid all these grave events and fulfilled prophecies, that He is here, sending out His prophetic message, and directing events according to His purposes!

There is also a message in the fact that it was Jonah who gave this prophecy. This is the same Jonah whom God later commissioned to warn Nineveh, that “exceeding great city,” the capital of the Assyrian Empire (Jonah 1:2; 3:3). God wanted Jonah to tell the leaders of that mighty and cruel empire that He was about to punish them for their evil.

Jonah feared doing that, and he fled. By running away, he committed a serious sin before God.

This history teaches a crucial lesson: We must not run from anything God wants us to do. Of course there are things we would rather not do, but we must do what God asks of us, no matter how difficult. When facing difficulties, we must be tough and brace ourselves to the task.

Jonah ran from his duty at first. Republicans have abandoned their duty. God has a message for America today, and I must not run from this duty—I have an obligation before God to deliver it.

Jonah was punished by being swallowed by a great fish for three days and three nights. He then repented and went right into Nineveh, proclaiming to them that burdensome message (Jonah 3). Then something astonishing happened: The leaders and people of Nineveh believed God. The people of this great city and mighty empire humbled themselves (verses 5-10).

This really happened! These ancestors of the modern Germans, from the king to the nobles to all the people, repented! That is the only time an empire has ever repented at the warning of a prophet of God.

I’m sure God wants this history emphasized. God deeply desires for people to repent. Even in America today, as acute as the problems destroying our country are, we could turn everything around if we, like the Ninevites, would humble ourselves before God and repent.

[1] For perspective, Biden had 20 million Twitter followers; and half of those were later discovered to be fake.
