Moving Forward, It’s Alinsky Rule No. 8: Keep The Pressure On

Underground USA

Maybe it’s because what I have been screaming for the last twenty years is finally being heard (the overnight show I am on is broadcast on Salem affiliate stations), or maybe not, but the notion that the Speaker of the House mentioned litigation regarding the Democrats' abandonment of their primary election-sanctioned nominee is a hopeful development.

In a recent article, Alinsky Rule No. 4: Make The Enemy Live Up To Its Own Book Of Rules, I asked, “Where are the attorneys of the conservative movement? Shouldn’t they be filing a litany of lawsuits on behalf of the disenfranchised Democrat voters seeing to force the DNC to have fidelity to their own party rules?”

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), touched on this very thought immediately after the announcement by the White House (we still haven’t heard directly from Joe Biden) that Mr. Biden was standing down from the Democrat Party’s nomination for president in the 2024 election.

As reported by Emily Hallas of The Washington Examiner:

“During an interview Sunday morning with CNN’s State of the Union, Johnson gave his assessment of Democrats’ chances to do a last-minute switch at the top of the presidential ballot.

“The Republican speaker noted that Democrats are facing ‘a real problem’ because ‘every state has their own election system,’ making it difficult for Democrats to end Biden’s bid for a second term.

“Johnson says Democrats should expect ‘legal hurdles’ from states, because ‘Joe Biden was chosen after a long democratic process by 14 million people.’”

Indeed, Biden himself, while flailing for political survival, claimed as much in a letter to Democrats before he received the knives in the back, saying:

“I received over 14 million votes, 87 percent of the votes cast across the entire nominating process…The voters of the Democratic Party have voted. They have chosen me to be the nominee of the party. Do we now just say this process didn’t matter? That the voters don’t have a say?”

Once again, the Democrats themselves (this time in Biden’s own words) have delivered a potent game plan to Republicans that will keep the Left in chaos well into their convention if Republicans can get out of their own way. It epitomizes Alinsky Rule No. 4: Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.

This segways into another of Alinsky’s rules, one that must be utilized to the fullest immediately and through the General Election in November: Rule No. 8 – Keep the pressure on.

In keeping the pressure on, Republicans, conservatives, Libertarians, Constitution-loving independents, and real Democrats, have a variety of tools/issues at their disposal to achieve the goal, the goal being keeping the radically Marxist-Left that has hijacked the Democrat Party in disorganized chaos through the General Election.

Arrow Number One

The first arrow in the quiver should be a litany of lawsuits on behalf of disenfranchised Democrat Primary Election voters claiming a breach of contract by the Democrat National Committee in their unilateral move to force Joe Biden from the ticket.

Taking a page from the Progressive (read: neo-Bolshevik) playbook, Republican/Conservative lawyers should shop for federal courts/judges in multiple jurisdictions to achieve injunctions that will force the DNC to abide by their established nomination process. This would keep the various camps within the Democrat Party hierarchy from being able to coalesce behind one prospective candidate to introduce in Kamala Harris' place at an open convention.

Arrow Number Two

The second arrow in the quiver comes in the form of narrative control, which Republicans and conservatives have an opportunity to exploit for once. The overarching question is not who will be at the top of the Democrat ticket, but who is actually running the Democrat presidency as we speak and who has been the puppetmaster for the last 3-plus years.

That question must be hammered home again and again and again until it is dripping off the lips of even the most disinterested party. We, the voters, actually have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to blow the gates of the Deep State wide open, to expose the corrupt inner workings of Washington DC, the Deep State, the “uniparty,” and the BigMoney lobbyist substratum.

Who is/are the puppetmaster(s); who is actually running this Democrat administration at the federal level? Hammer, hammer, hammer!

Arrow Number Three

The third arrow in the “keep the pressure on” quiver comes in two more questions: How long have the far-Left puppetmasters been orchestrating the big lie against the American people? And, how can anyone vote for a cabal as dishonest and opportunistically self-serving in this type of subterfuge?

The issues in the 2024 election were bad enough for far-Left Democrats. Their only platform plank is “Orange man bad.” They have no accomplishments to speak of; their policies have left the country and her people less safe and poorer; and the all-important undecided voter demographic is awakening to being pissed off about it all.

But the one galvanizing point that is seeding anger in the electorate is that the far-Left and the Democrat Party leadership has bald-faced lied to not only their own base but to the whole of the electorate. And the far-Left and Democrat leadership could care less that they have been exposed for their deceit.

Republicans and conservatives have to remind the electorate each and every day that the puppetmasters of the far-Left believe them to be intellectually inferior and unworthy – and in fact incapable of understanding – the truth; that their agenda is and always has been a quest for totalitarian power seated in a centralized politburo-style government. The electorate needs to be reminded every single day!

Relenting To The Notion Of Winning

The Right side of the aisle has been miserably delinquent in utilizing the tried and true tools that are Alinsky’s rules against their opponents. For whatever reason, Republicans and conservatives have chosen, instead, to die on the hill of political morality, even as their opponents on the far-Left – the Marxist-Left – have abandoned any notion of playing by any moral code but their code of moral relativism: the ends justifies the means.

But just like the American Revolutionary War patriots who refused to line up in well-defined rows across from better-trained and equipped British soldiers only to be mowed down; patriots who tantamount to invented contemporary guerilla warfare in their defeat of the King’s army, Republicans and conservatives must finally come to the conclusion that the political version of the Marquess of Queensberry Rules doesn’t – and can’t – apply.

By the hand of God or the fickle finger of fate – whichever you prefer, the Progressive neo-Bolsheviks who had been sprinting toward the goal line of fundamental transformation, Republic-loving America twenty yards behind, has stumbled into a hard and possibly debilitating face-plant at the five-yard line, fumbling the ball.

In a failed assassination attempt against Donald Trump and the mental (and possibly physical) incapacitation of Joe Biden, Constitution-loving Americans have an opportunity to not only pick up the ball but to reverse the fortunes of political confrontation and the destruction the far-Left has wrecked on our nation ever since the Obama genie escaped the Chicago-political bottle.

But to do so, we have to get our hands dirty. My fellow Americans, it’s time to play in the mud.
