I go to bed early, because I get up early to get to work. I even get up before breakfast! As a result, I record Tucker Carson Tonight. So, as I was drinking coffee this morning, and watching a recording of Tucker Carlson Tonight from Brazil, and thinking that I need to alert gentle readers to Carlson's monologue, I clicked on a post by Andrea Widburg at the American Thinker. Widburg had already done my work for me in her post entitled Tucker puts together the long list of political arrests in Biden's America. Naturally, she embeds Carlson's monologue in her post, which you should watch. The fact is that when you put it together in one place, it is shocking. It reminds of Stalin's tactics in the Soviet Union. You wonder when people will be disappeared, ad scrubbed out of old photos.
Speaking from Brazil, Carlson notes that in Brazil, the losers of an election are often arrested. Politics there are not for the feint of heart. Anyone with a sense of integrity and honesty should clearly stay clear of politics. His point is that we are heading toward the same fate. Our scavenger class appears to be interested in power for power's sake in order to enrich themselves at the expense of the people. This is not the intent of our founders. We weren't supposed to have professional politicians. Rather, successful people in business, agriculture, shipping or other enterprises would give back to the community by running for Congress and other political offices for a term or two, and then return to private life.
Today we have people, on both sides, who get themselves into office having done nothing to recommend them, and begin accumulating power, as I say, for powers sake. Along the way, they seem to become millionaires even though they have no other means of support than their salary as Congressmen. It has now gotten to the point where at least one political party has decided to criminalize the other party. This not what was intended, and we the people are at fault for tolerating this corrupt system.
Please go watch Carlson's monologue.
