Surge Summary: From the Donald Trump indictment to ‘Trans’ Vengeance to bullying of journalists and on and on … It’s clear ruling elites want everyone to think twice before doing anything not approved by the Left.
by Robert Knight
In the space of a week, we saw three children and three adults executed at a Christian school in Nashville, the indictment of former President Donald Trump, and the advent of the national “Transgender Day of Visibility.”
We also saw the current White House occupant awkwardly joking at length about his love for ice cream before addressing the Nashville tragedy.
The word “inappropriate” is wildly inadequate. Within moments, he segued into a gun control rant.
President Biden’s clueless press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, an LGBTQ activist herself, made it all about the transgender “community.”
As for Christians who oppose spaying and castrating children, well, they’re obviously the bad guys.
But wait, there’s more. Mr. Biden declared Friday, March 31, as the “Transgender Day of Visibility” honoring “all transgender, gender nonconforming, and nonbinary people.” That was four days after the trans terrorist’s killing spree at the school. She was stopped only because the Nashville cops heroically charged in within minutes and took her out. They didn’t care that she preferred male pronouns.
“Transgender Americans shape our nation’s soul,” Biden actually said in his “Day of Visibility” proclamation. As for transgender activists, they had planned a “Trans Day of Vengeance” rally at the Supreme Court with posters featuring a knife, but canceled at the last minute.
Meanwhile, we’ve learned that more than two years after the Capitol riot, prosecutors intend to arrest another 700 to 1,000 people. That’s right. They are only halfway through and expect to keep this circus going for years.
So far, roughly 1,000 people have already been arrested in connection with Jan. 6, of whom 408 were sentenced. About half involve a felony, with the other half misdemeanors. Only 88 have been convicted of a felony, such as obstructing an official proceeding or assaulting a federal officer.
Dozens more are still being held in the D.C. jail without bail or trial. And this is America?
It should be clear by now that the Trump indictment, the callous reaction to the Nashville slaughter of Christians, the promotion of transgenderism and the relentlessly absurd persecution of Jan. 6 defendants is about one thing: intimidating the American public.
Step out of line and there’s a lot we can do to you. The Clinton and Biden crime families? Hey, don’t be so political.
The ruling elites want us to think twice about doing anything not approved by the Left. Given facial recognition and other surveillance technology popular in Communist China, the feds can go after anyone years after the fact. It’s open season on anyone even remotely suspected of being a MAGA type or “Christian nationalist.”
Unlike its abuse of the Jan. 6 protesters, the Biden Justice Department is ignoring illegal demonstrations outside homes of conservative U.S. Supreme Court justices. Federal law forbids protests designed to affect judicial proceedings.
The illegal protests began when the Court’s Dobbs ruling overturning Roe v. Wade was leaked last May. No one has been prosecuted. Attorney General Merrick Garland said it was because there have been no arrests. Now we learn that Mr. Garland secretly told federal marshals not to make any arrests.
This is what totalitarianism looks like.
By contrast, no credible figure exists for how many were arrested and charged in the more than 200 BLM/Antifa riots in 2020 that took dozens of lives, injured hundreds of police and caused an estimated $2 billion in property damage. We don’t know because the media don’t care.
It isn’t just the Justice Department. The Internal Revenue Service has not been shy about conducting politically motivated inquiries.
House Republicans are currently investigating the “weaponization of government” under the Obama and Biden administrations. Matt Taibbi, one of three journalists selected by Elon Musk to report on the Twitter files, is a witness. He helped uncover the explosive fact that Obama Administration officials told Twitter to block conservative content and elevate liberal content during the 2020 election cycle.
So, Mr. Taibbi got a knock on the door of his New Jersey home on March 9. He wasn’t there. He was in Washington testifying about the Twitter scandal. The IRS agent left a note telling him to call the agency, which informed him that his 2018 and 2021 returns had been rejected, the Wall Street Journal reported.
It’s also worth noting that Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina (“Wrath of”) Khan has demanded that Mr. Musk “identify all journalists” who had access to the Twitter files.
Hope you are getting the picture. One more thing that this administration has in common with totalitarian regimes: in-your-face lying.
COVID czar Anthony Fauci misled the nation over and over and covered up his own complicity in the Wuhan lab experiments.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen assured us that inflation was “transitory” even as it rose to nearly 10 percent.
Homeland Security director Alejandro Mayorkas told Congress with a straight face that the border is “secure.” An estimated five million illegal aliens have crossed into the United States since Mr. Biden took office.
President Biden himself tweeted: “MAGA House Republican proposals would slash funding for border security – a move that could allow nearly 900 pounds of fentanyl into our country. We need more resources to secure the border. Not less.”
This theater of the absurd might be funny if it were not so deadly serious.
The only cure is to pray for God’s mercy on our country and to resist the madness in every legal way possible. Then, replace the current regime with a president and Congress who will put an end to the lawlessness.

Crooked: What Really Happened in the 2020 Election and How to Stop the Fraud
By Robert Knight
160 pages, fully footnoted and indexed. (2022 D. James Kennedy Ministries.) Available at the roberthknight.com website store.
In 2020, the Left in America seized control of all three elected branches of the federal government. We have been paying for it ever since. But was the election fair and honest?
We are told every day that we cannot even ask that question lest we be “cancelled” as “election deniers.”
Yet, there is massive evidence that vote fraud, unconstitutional election law rigging and Big Tech manipulation yielded a pre-determined result. The media, which should be shining a light on all this, instead labels all such suggestions as “baseless,” “falsehoods,” or simply “false.” Instead of defending freedom of speech and free inquiry, the press vilifies anyone stepping outside their narrative.
For more than 244 years, America’s Christian culture and its continued influence have combined with limits on government imposed by the Constitution to make the United States the freest, most prosperous nation in history. But forces have been at work for decades to “liberate” us from self-government.
This book exposes the many threats to free elections posed by un-American, socialist activists. But it’s also meant to inspire patriotic Americans to resist intimidation and to restore limited government under God.
