Liberal Gaslighting Goes Global

The problem with many liberals is they can’t live in their own truth. They abandon ship as soon as it becomes inconvenient to maintain their current persona. The most obvious and telling recent examples come from the Democrat Presidential candidate-by-fiat, Kamala Harris. For the last three and a half years, she was ‘The Border Czar.’ Everyone knew it. Biden announced it with much ballyhoo, and she was referred to as ‘The Border Czar’ by the television, print, and electronic media repeatedly.  As the Vice President, she ran interference for Joe Biden. (He didn’t create the huge border fiasco; she did.)

But once the Nancy Pelosi-Barack Obama-Chuckie Schumer coup d’etat had been executed and Kamala Harris had been installed as the de facto Democrat Presidential nominee, her Border Czar title became a major political liability. She was no longer running interference for Ol’ Joe. She was the new figurehead for the Democrat presidential campaign. Any stain of failure, especially one tied to the massive disaster of the southern United States border, was a huge threat to her Presidential aspirations. So, the Democrat political machine, together with their legacy media propaganda juggernaut, went full George Orwell on John Q. Public. CNN, MSNBC, the New York Times, the New Yorker, Axios, and a score of other legacy media began trumpeting: ‘Kamala Harris was never the Border Czar!’

Unfortunately for the gaslighters, and thanks to the internet, there is an abundance of records of them dubbing her with that title. Take Axios, for instance. In late July, they wrote:

“In the past few days, the Trump campaign and Republicans have tagged Harris repeatedly with the “border czar” title — which she never actually had.” Axios, July 24, 2024.

Except, in their own words:

“The number of unaccompanied minors crossing the border has reached crisis levels. Harris, appointed by Biden as border czar, said she would be looking at the “root causes” that drive migration.” Axios, April 14, 2021. (Emphasis added.)

Media organizations believed they could just rewrite history wholesale and get away with it. Even more amazing, the Democrat faithful have accepted their gaslighting as gospel.

And it’s not just Kamala’s record as Border Czar they’re trying to eradicate. They’re desperate to reverse all her historic policy positions, from defunding the police, to abolishing I.C.E., to initiating a national mandatory gun buy-back program, a total ban on fracking in America, citizenship for illegal immigrants, and more. In my six decades of following politics, I’ve never seen such a massive and brazen effort to re-engineer a politician’s identity. (CNN calls it ‘recalibrating’.) To be sure, Barack Obama’s identity was fabricated out of whole cloth, but he was obscure enough beforehand so that they had no trouble creating his fictional persona.

Leaving presidential politics aside, there’s another example of major liberal gaslighting going on, this one from the Paris Olympics. By now, everyone in the Western Hemisphere (unless you’ve been living off the grid under a rock) has heard the uproar over the opening ceremony produced, directed, and starring a bevy of drag queens, gays, lesbians, and other members of the LGBTQ+ ‘community.’ The opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics was an outrageous and blasphemous display of sacrilege against the Christian faith and one of its most sacred events: The Last Supper.
