Progressives on the Brink

The Trump era has exposed the dark, vindictive, and oppressive side of liberalism, but that side has always existed.

Because President Trump is reversing many Obama-era initiatives, the left's hostility toward him is unprecedented.

Progressives are becoming increasingly rigid in their thinking - and increasingly aggressive toward any who disagree with them.

The left's opinion of the president, echoed in every left-leaning corner of the media, is that he is illegitimate; incompetent; racist; sexist; and, in some vague and inchoate sense, "Fascist."

Because they view President Trump in these extreme terms, progressives view themselves not as violent extremists, but as "The resistance." But resistance implies that there exists something worthy of resisting.

The progressive resistance began just seconds after Trump was declared the victor on election night.

The left now demands the right to govern permanently and without opposition, regardless of the outcome of elections.

President Trump has responded to these attacks with admirable restraint.

As Gregg Jarrett reports, there is "Strong circumstantial evidence" to suspect that high officials colluded to undermine the Trump campaign and the presidency, and that they employed criminal means to do so.

As the extent of criminal activities of progressives within the FBI and Justice Department becomes known, the American people must understand the seriousness of what has taken place.

And more likely, that progressives will dismiss the seriousness of whatever crimes have been committed and engage in even more desperate measures.
