Time to Stop the Authoritarian Shift and Keep the U.S. Free

Leer en Español

The 2024 presidential election will bear witness to one of two things. The deepening of the systemic transformation that has been going on since Barack Obama’s ascension to power in 2009. This course is intellectually underpinned by modern Marxist premises and has been using Fabian socialist means for its implementation. To carry through policies, the Obama model, has been novel in its use of alternate mechanisms for systemic change promotion. Besides the typical executive and legislative venues available to a president and party leader, Obama has redefined the civil service sector to suit his ideological objectives by placing committed and like-minded individuals to head these departments and opening new agencies that have been given broad police powers.

It is a shadow government, an administrative state (also known as the Deep State). This myriad of unelected state bureaucratic entities includes the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Department of Justice (DOJ), Department of State (DOS), and many of their auxiliary agencies. The mentioned undemocratic governing leviathan has coopted private actors such as woke business and financing emporiums, corporate and social media outlets, and Big Tech (Google, Microsoft, etc.). Together, they enjoy effective power that can match that of any totalitarian regime. This course is integrated with globalist movements and international governing bodies that aim to erase any notion of national sovereignty.

The other alternative represents the reversal of this postmodern global socialist revolution. This crusade to defend Western civilization and its values, includes the principle of consensual government, basic liberties, the rule of law, and a notion of ordered progress that is considerate of time-tested truths and ethics. By now, it should be clear which candidate and party stand for these contrarian positions. Kamala Harris and today’s Obamian Democratic Party is pushing the former agenda. Donald J. Trump and the Republican Party is taking up the sword for the latter.

José Martí Was Never a Communist (Excerpt)

Marxism weighs more on positive liberty and positive law. As such, the communist project, with its dependence on structural repression to achieve its ends, could be welcomed by Lenin, Mao, or Castro, but not by Martí or Lincoln.

(Excerpt from my speech at the Academy of Cuban History in Exile, AHCE)^[e]

For sixty-four years after being killed in battle, the rightly deserved reverence for Cuba’s national hero, José Martí, was a matter of hallowed institutional respect among Cubans. During the republican era (1902–1958), no political party, movement, or public figure attempted to ideologically delineate the Cuban Apostle’s politics to fit partisan or worldview contentions. There was a consensus on what Martí believed in and what he rejected. A free and independent Cuba where its people could live in dignity, in a self-governing open society and prosper, both, spiritually and materially, was the accepted understanding of Martí’s paradigm. A tyrannical regime was his antithesis. 

The communist takeover of the island, using state and dictatorial power, initiated an aggressive campaign to deconstruct Martí. The vast written testimony that Cuba’s premier figure laid out, unequivocally places Martí outside the prism of a Marxist or socialist thinker and activist.^[1] Castro-Communism, nonetheless, has been barefacedly relentless in its pursuit to create a false characterization of the top-notch Cuban patriot and intellectual to accommodate its political objectives, social domestication endeavors, and entrench its systemic program. The task of familiarizing Cubans who have been raised in Marxist-Leninist captivity and subjected to the ideologically altered version of Martí with the real one should not be construed as a draconian undertaking. A person needs only to reference the ample empirical written testimony to conclude that the Apostle of Cuba’s independence was, undoubtedly, not only not a communist, but, in fact, a convinced anticommunist. Letting Martí speak for himself provides clarity for those in earnest doubt.

What Trump Must Do to Win in 2024

Leer en Español

Joe Biden’s ouster from the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate slot has invigorated the American Left. The most elated constitute the bulk of the establishment media, which has officially, for the last decade and a half, traded its journalism credentials for political and ideological activism. The other group of enthusiasts is the core institutions of the non-elected administrative state, as well as the entrenched social media and cyber systems' oligarchy. Some have labeled this powerful extension of today’s Democratic Party as a component of the Deep State and the Censorship Industrial Complex. Donald Trump is not competing against Kamala Harris. The Republican candidate and former president are challenging a well-organized and unscrupulous system.

When Barack Obama ushered in the vague and simplistically seeming slogans of “hope” and “change”, what he was referring to was a Marxist-driven soft revolution that was to be carried out in the cultural realm. Drawing from Gramsci, Adorno, Horkheimer, Marcuse, Foucault, and his ideological Harvard mentor, Derrick Bell (the father of Critical Justice and Critical Race Theories), Obama unleashed cultural socialism with its identity politics stratagem understanding that law, norms, media, education, and government all draw from culture to build their institutions. This is a familiar enemy that most of the democratic West is fighting. Its global purpose is the same as it was in Marx’s day, allowing for pragmatic adjustments in ideology and implementation. The system is a stealth version of communism.

If Harris is the face representing this onslaught on democracy, Donald Trump, for all his shortcomings and imperfections, is the only option challenging this authoritarian threat. If he is to be successful, Trump and the Republican Party must adhere to the rules of engagement that are being waged against him and the American Republic. To miscalculate or underestimate the Left’s maneuvers and war plans in the 2024 election would be detrimental to Trump’s victory. Here are two essential steps that Republicans must follow.

This is the Freedom Crusade. 

The Trump team can learn from President Javier Milei’s successful campaign in Argentina last November. This should not be too difficult for the Republican candidate to do. Both are nonconventional politicians who often speak unwisely and perilously off the cuff. South America’s MAGA (Make Argentina Great Again) movement was able to unseat a socialist Sao Paulo Forum government with similar goals as America’s Democratic Party. Milei’s electoral strategy was to elevate popular consciousness of the importance of freedom and the dangers of communism, and he declared a conviction to stand up for Western civilization and confront globalized Neo-Marxism.

Trump must effectively communicate to the American people, like Milei did to the Argentinians, that his opponent is merely the figurehead of a greater evil. This should also not be difficult to do. Harris is a far-left, mediocre candidate who is irrefutably linked with failed socialist policies and Marxist identity politics fanaticism. Gender Ideology and Critical Race Theory, two modern-day Marxist ideological adaptations, have no greater supporter than Harris. Two-thirds of Americans reject Gender Ideology’s state-imposed policies on education, public facilities, government, and athletic competition. Trump must intelligently and respectfully illustrate this point. To illustrate this point in simple terms, let us consider health insurance coverage mandates.

Obama’s signature Affordable Care Act (ACA), overwhelmingly defended by Democrats including Biden and Harris, makes it illegal for a private insurance company to refuse to cover transgenderism’s operations. However, on the issue of covering expenses for nuclear families that seek to have children but have difficulties, procedures such as in vitro fertilization (IVA), are not automatically covered, as per the ACA. Trump has announced that he would support public funding or insurance mandates on coverage to help families by potentially assisting women to achieve pregnancy. The worldviews that separate both presidential candidates are universes apart. Republicans must not let Harris clothe herself in moderation.

MAGA Must Broaden its Coalition.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., part of an iconic American family of Democratic politicians, has openly endorsed Trump as the lessor of two evils. This does not mean that he is only tepidly supporting the Republican candidate. Kennedy has made a scorching and accurate description of the radical nature of the institution that today calls itself the Democratic Party. Foremost in his warning is the grave threat that free speech and liberty in general are facing from the Harris-Obama-Biden ticket. Republicans must prioritize drawing all the disaffected Democratic voters that feel betrayed by their party. Ronald Reagan, it must be remembered, was once a Democrat.

Working-class families of all races, ethnicities, and religions must be sought and incorporated under the MAGA umbrella. The Biden-Harris border immigration anarchy has hurt all Americans. However, as a minority group, it has hit black Americans and Hispanics disproportionately. The social spending that has been afforded to illegal immigrants has come as a detriment to the mentioned group of Americans. Republicans must go out of their way to bring blacks and Hispanics to the MAGA tent. Both groups being socially conservative and akin to religiosity, the Republican Party would be a natural for them.

Jews should be offended by the Democratic Party’s support for Islamism. It has been, not only, the emotional siding with the genocidal calls for Israel’s elimination by Islamist-Marxist groups. The support that Iran, the overseer and financier of the October 7 invasion, has received from Obama and then Biden-Harris has enabled Islamism’s attacks on Israel and the West. The unprecedented peace that the turbulent Middle East lived through under Trump’s four-year presidential watch was not a coincidence. It was the causal effect that reflected a successful foreign policy strategy.

Women have been under attack by the incursion of men (who claim to be women) into ladies’ sports, bathrooms, prisons, and public spaces. This has been a direct result of policies that follow Marxist dogma and have been implemented by Democrats. Harris and Tim Walz, her vice presidential partner, are true believers in the cult of transgenderism. For the Democratic ticket, trans rights are more important than women’s rights. Trump must reach out to the female population. This is where Republicans are most vulnerable.

The issue of abortion, like identity group politics, has been a tool that the Left has seized upon. Lie after shameless lie, Democrats speak as though abortion has been made illegal across the country. This is not the case. Each state, according to the whims of its citizens, has the power to craft the legal timeframe for the ending of a fetus’s life. Without going deep into the moral aspects of whether a woman is entitled to do with her body what she wishes, including ending another human life, upholding facts should be something Republicans must harness. Roe v. Wade is dead. But women can still get an abortion.

After addressing the above-mentioned campaign routes, the Republican Party must be ready and able to defend the integrity of the 2024 elections. A lawyer at the service of the GOP must be present at every single precinct, in every relevant swing state polling center. Early voting, absentee ballots, and mail-in voting are here to stay, for the most part. Republicans must capitalize on these initiatives and use them to the GOP’s advantage. Get-out-the-vote efforts should be amplified. Leaving the option to vote exclusively on election day could hand the Democrats the victory. Republicans must learn from the Democrats’ playbook. Not on morals, virtues, or policies. Lincoln’s party must imitate their power schemes, cunning ability to use the courts in conservative jurisdictions and break the wall of traditional Democratic voters. This election is far too important.

Comrade Kamala

Leer en Español

The American Left is aspiring to implement Barack Obama's fourth presidential term. Or, better expressed, the goal is another opportunity to deepen the socialist revolution he launched in 2008, which Donald Trump had the audacity to interrupt and, within certain limits, reverse or slow its advance. It is what the German Marxist philosopher Rudi Dutschke labeled the “march through the institutions.” In the U.S. context, this radical model is a hybrid composition of Neo-Marxist epistemological foundations (Frankfurt School’s “Critical Theory,” Gramsci’s “Cultural Hegemony,” and Lukacs’ “Reification”), Fabian socialist methodology, and postmodernism’s structural determinist framework. There is no one better suited to expand this revolution against the American exceptionalist sociopolitical system than Kamala Harris.  

Joe Biden served the leftist cause well, or as best he could. Never being very brilliant, even at the height of his long political career, he did manage to fill the task by offering both an image of moderation and servitude. This was essential for those who have been really running Biden’s administration and campaign: Obama’s shadow government, which evolved into a regime by the time the 46^th president entered the White House in 2021. The Democrat’s June debate debacle and Trump nearly getting killed because of the bizarre and gross negligence of the Secret Service and other intelligence agencies were Biden’s last chance. A palace revolution, with the skill that only Democrats know all too well how to perform, took place, and now the dagger is passed on to Harris.

Kamala was always Obama’s favorite out of the 2020 Democratic presidential choices. There is a good reason for this. While Biden could be made to follow and abide by the established norms of American leftism, for Harris, this is, literally, a genetic disposition. Kamala’s deep-rooted connectedness with Neo-Marxist dogma and praxis, is a matter of fact. Biden’s current vice-president and former senator and prosecutor will not bring moderates to the voting booth, but she is a true believer in Obama’s soft socialist revolution.

Harris, fervently and faithfully, is a gender ideology pronoun promoter and practitioner. This delirious and subversive postmodern language scheme seeks to alter the perception of reality by distorting and denaturalizing speech, symbols, and concepts. It is fundamental to Marxism’s campaign to censor, make the absurd possible, and directly promote Gender Ideology (GI) and Critical Queer Theory (CQT). The 2021 executive order adaptations of Title IX exemplify the Biden-Harris administration’s conviction to gain ground with Marxist tenets that focus on reformulating culture.

Title IX is a part of the Education Amendments of 1972, which modified the Higher Education Act of 1965. On day one, Biden issued an executive order revising regulations for implementing Title IX to prioritize gender equity, a hallmark of Marxist GI. Harris has been the point person on this revision of the 1972 amendment, which undermines equality and, specifically, women’s sports, education, and activities. The current Democratic presidential frontrunner (apparently) has persistently argued against equality and in favor of equity. This is not a question of semantics.

Equity is the antithesis of equality. Its implementation requires inequality, discrimination, and segregation. Equity is a potent tool to wage war in the oppressor/oppressor dichotomy that Marx and Engels invented and cultural Marxists perfected. It is not just GI and CQT that conceptually employ equity to propel Marxism. Critical Race Theory (CRT), Critical Postcolonial Theory (CPT), and Critical Feminist Theory (CFT) are some other communist premises adapted to the cultural hegemonic pretension that depends on equity to camouflage its liberticidal project. In the American workplace, it is the “E” in DEI, or “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.” These are basic trojan horses that speak about equality and harmony while instituting racism, sexism, sexual relativity, minority supremacy, and censorship through “hate” speech or “unsafe” realms.

One of Harris’ first stops as the crowned Democratic heir, was to address the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), the country’s second-largest teacher’s union and a firm apologist for far-left curriculums and militant Marxist indoctrination policies (GI, CQT, CRT, CPT, and CFT). There, she assured AFT members that gender ideology and sexual practices material would be “protected” in the children’s classrooms. Parents’ rights would be circumvented by giving primacy to schoolteachers, counselors, and other GI and CQT commissars. 

During the 2020 Marxist revolt across the U.S. led by Black Lives Matter and Antifa, Harris was one of the most ardent defenders of the communist saboteurs. Raising money for the Minnesota Freedom Fund, a far-left organization that paid bail to get the rioters out of jail, which included violent criminals, accused murderers, and rapists, was only one of her actions. Throughout the long summer of looting, murder, arson, and attacks on American democracy, Harris made constant references to the underlying causes that produced this response from the Marxist rioters.

Defunding the police, a key objective of all communist movements, has found enormous and consistent support from Harris. Marxists understand that local law enforcement is the first line of authority that protects the prevailing order. Debilitating this point of defense is crucial to the Marxist endgame of igniting chaos and crisis. Those conditions typically precede demands for regime change.

Mass immigration to breach national sovereignty, as well as invigorate cultural hemorrhaging, is one of Western civilization’s biggest threats. True to Fabian socialism and its adherence to global governance and socioeconomic arrangements, Harris has adamantly supported and is responsible for the anarchy at the southern border. From arguing for the dismantlement of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and equating this important federal agency to the white supremacist group, the Ku Klux Klan, to the espousal of decriminalizing illegal border crossings, Harris is one of mass immigration's biggest advocates. This is the case in theory and in practice.         

Radical environmentalism, or eco-socialism, as others refer to it, has found an enormous political and moral buttress in Harris. As cosponsor of the Green New Deal, the American far-left project in step with globalist, unscientific environmental extremism, the former California senator and Biden’s vice president has gone to the fringes of climate alarmist zealotry. Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, the technique used in the oil and gas industry to extract natural gas and oil from deep underground rock formations that have aided American oil supremacy, has found an ardent opponent in Harris. If elected, she proposes to ban it.

Abortions in the U.S. are now in the hands of the states. Harris cosponsored the titled Women's Health Protection Act of 2021. This piece of legislation sought to extend abortions on demand without any limitations. This includes the full timeframe of any pregnancy. Such a radical position, even among abortionists, has been sustained by Harris. Surely, she would do everything in her power to demolish America’s democratic setup as outlined by the Founding Fathers.

Kamala Harris was born into a trained Marxist household. Donald Harris, Kamala’s father, was an acknowledged Marxist who taught economic theory and policy at Stanford University in California. Together with Shyamala Gopalan, Harris’ mother, the Democrat’s parents both belonged to ultra-left student groups such as the Afro-American Association while studying at the University of California at Berkeley. Undoubtedly, the 2019 designation of the most left-wing senator issued by GovTrack, a nonpartisan website that monitors the voting record of politicians and rates them, accordingly, was well deserved. Obama’s dream of having Harris in the Oval Office would be horrific. Marxism must be stopped.
