Now is the Time for Patriotic Americans to Draw a Line in the Sand

The evidence is mounting that should make it clear, even to liberals, that last year, our election was stolen. But, the problem that leaves the country to deal with is, what to do about it?

 Some would say, there’s nothing to be done. It’s too late to go back and try to fix 2020, so let’s all just move on to 2022 and make sure America does better next time.

 To be sure, from the perspective of trying to maintain a modicum of peace and tranquility in the short term, this approach is appealing. Let’s face it, the crooks who stole the election are presently in control of our courts, Congress, the executive branch and the military. Thus, expecting them to simply say they are sorry and hand back the keys to the kingdom will be considered by some to be a tad delusional.

 On the other hand, is that a good enough reason for patriotic Americans to not demand that they hand the keys back?

Before we accept such advice—i.e., move on, there’s nothing to be done here—let’s first consider the magnitude of the crime we may soon be confronted with.

Actions taken by a host of individuals in the dark of night to upend a national election with the specific intent to prevent a duly elected President from taking office in order to install an illegitimate regime contrary to the Constitution is not just the crime of “election fraud.” 

Were it discovered that a foreign power had committed this same crime, would it not be considered an act of war?

So why should domestic insurrectionists (the election thieves), who are found to have engaged in the very same conduct, be treated any differently?
