Dear Editor,

I am responding to a letter from Patty Watson. Let us drop the rhetoric about political violence and the unity narrative of the Democrat party. They have resorted to political violence, including lawfare and have not unified our nation. They have demonized anyone who does not agree with their agenda. This includes parents speaking out at school board meetings and old women praying outside abortion clinics. So much for free speech. Yet, they protect violent protestors on college campuses, rioters, and agitators who vandalize our cities and public places. 

She claims that Democrats look to the “future.” I ask, “The future of what”? …high taxes, slow growth, open borders, inflation, weak dollar, high crime, disastrous foreign policy, threats from multiple enemies, nonreciprocal trade, removal of sanctions, support for terrorists, bias against Jews, out of control spending and escalating the national debt, suppression of free speech, packing the Supreme Court, election interference, government by nonelected bureaucrats, the politicization and weaponization of agencies – the FBI, CIA, Department of Justice etc. The climate hoax was created to instill fear. Only the government can then save us. This is a form of control.

Citizens cannot afford to buy a house, while they forgive student loans and spend billions on illegal immigrants. Many jobs created have gone to illegals and many are only part-time. Good paying jobs are offshore once again, and high corporate taxes and regulations will not bring them back. The war on fossil fuels is senseless. We have enough to supply our needs and those of the world. We refine the cleanest, high grade of fossil fuels. 

Vote for a Renaissance or a Dystopian future. You will make the most important choice this November and we will live with the consequences of our choice.
