What if there was a real coup and nobody noticed?
By John Dale Dunn
The Democrats were wrong that there was an insurrection on January 6. However, they are correct that there has been a government takeover in America. Typically, though, they’re pointing in the wrong direction. The coup came from the left, not the right.
Victor Davis Hanson, iconic conservative essayist and author/commentator, has been on a tear the past month about the American Political Crisis. In a much-lauded essay at PJ Media, he tallies up the results of the four-year-long (and counting) relatively bloodless coup and seizure of America by the aggressive leftist autocrats.
The list is long and disturbing as well as alarming—certainly not business as usual—and Hanson doesn’t do his job superficially. I urge you to read the original essay for all the details he brings to bear to support his claim, but here is a sample of his concerns and questions:
What happened to the U.S. border? … Did Congress secretly repeal our immigration laws?

Who insisted that the more dollars the federal government printed, the more prosperity would follow? When did America embrace zero interest? Why do we believe $30 trillion in debt is no big deal?
[snip]
Which lawmakers, which laws, which votes of the people declared natural gas development and pipelines near criminal?
[snip]
How could these mobs so easily throng our justices’ homes, with placards declaring “Off with their d–s”?more
