Mainstream media, or should we say “meanstream media,” has been in the process of lurching to the left for a while. Even Fox News, while backing the President, often rails against conservatives while embracing moderate Republicans who practice Democratic orthodoxy. That’s not everyone at Fox News, but some prominent show hosts really love to align in the center.

The Arizona Republic, which was counted on for a while to lean right during elections, made a shift in 2016 by endorsing Hillary Clinton. Now, they’re going to the left of Clinton by endorsing far-left Democratic Socialist Kyrsten Sinema. Her 9% Liberty Score makes her by far the biggest leftist in the state. Now the Arizona Republic wants her to be their next Senator.

It isn’t just her voting record. Her ideas are extremely dangerous for America and particularly a southern border state like Arizona:

The paper’s endorsement of Clinton in 2016 can be chalked up to the Trump effect that hit many conservatives in their funny bone. It should be noted that I didn’t endorse nor vote for Trump, but I definitely didn’t endorse or vote for Clinton. My write in vote wasn’t even running. Oh, if only Thomas Sowell had stepped away from academia to lead the country for eight years, but I digress.

When the paper goes for two leftists in a row, we can call it a trend. With Sinema in particular, there needed to be a tremendous excuse that allowed the editorial board to abandon any sense of conservatism and embrace the far-left socialist values she has espoused her entire adult life.

Nope. Their excuse is as weak as anyone could possibly imagine:

The paper tries to justify their decision by claiming McSally is center-right (which she is) and Sinema is center-left (which she is not). One needs only to look at her 9% Liberty Score to realize she’s the most radical representative in Arizona. It’s not even close.

It has always been a paradox to me why there’s such an enthusiasm gap between presidential elections and midterm elections. The sitting President’s party invariably loses steam for the election immediately following a White House victory. It’s as if there’s zero civic understanding in America today.

Without majorities in both the House and Senate, a President’s agenda is completely hamstrung. We saw it with President Obama who had to turn to executive orders once Republicans took over the House. Executive orders are temporary actions that are so easily reversed, they’re essentially just campaign tools of wishful thinking for a future president and congressional majorities. They’re placeholders. If Hillary Clinton and Democrats in the House and Senate had won their 2016 races, then legislation could have solidified President Obama’s many executive orders.

Instead, most of the important ones are thankfully being reversed.

Any American who supports President Trump’s agenda should do everything within their power to help Republicans retain control of the House and Senate. In fact, they should be pushing for increases in the majorities, as we learned with Obamacare and the wall that it takes more than a slim majority to make certain things happen.

The midterms are important.

The midterms are important.

The midterms are important!

Democrats are fighting with everything they have in the tank to take away the majorities. They don’t want continued economic success to hurt their chances in 2020, so they desperately want control of the House. They don’t want more Constitutional originalist judges pushed through to the various benches around the country, especially the Supreme Court, so they want control of the Senate.

President Trump could realistically nominate two more Supreme Court Justices before the 2020 election. Without a clear majority in the Senate, there is zero chance he’ll get any other originalists through.

The Senate appears to be relatively safe, but the House majority is in real trouble. It’s imperative that Republicans and Independents do everything in their power to make Democrats lose seats in the House. It would be catastrophic to the President’s agenda if Republicans can’t retain control.

Nancy Pelosi will be Speaker of the House if the Republicans lose. That would make her the third most powerful person in Washington DC.

If Democrats win the House, there will be no wall. Obamacare will not be repealed and replaced. The economy will slow. President Trump’s agenda will be replaced by more caravans and leftist legislation. Yes, the midterms are important.

The mass of humanity trekking towards our southern border is 100% the fault of the Democratic Party. It’s not just a handful of politicians or political activists who are causing this event and all tragedies that come as a result. Every leftist politician as well as anyone who voted for them is to blame.

This is not going to end well. Some will simply not be able to walk the entire 3000+ miles. Reports have already shown people getting carried or left behind after collapsing. There is no telling what is currently happening to women and children in the caravan; mainstream media conveniently only shows footage of happy faces. The physical and psychological effects of such a journey are harsh, but one can easily argue that the situation they were leaving was even harsher.

When they make it to the border, there will be a clash of some sort. Remember, these people who want to claim asylum are bypassing thousands of miles of safety in Mexico to get to the United States, so they will not be deterred easily. If border patrol, local police, or even the military attempt to stop them from illegally entering our country, there will be violence.

Assuming some or even most make it into the United States, the potential for more tragedies escalates. Kate Steinle. Ronald Da Silva. Sarah Root. Drew Rosenberg. Mollie Tibbetts. All of these tragic deaths could have been avoided if criminal illegal immigrants, including those from Honduras, could have been kept out of the country.

The caravans have swollen to over 5,000 people. If only 1% are dangerous (and it’s almost certainly a higher percentage than that), then that’s 50 additional criminal illegal immigrants poised to bring more tragedy to American citizens.

This is all on the Democrats. Here are three reasons why:

Invitational propaganda

Everything coming from the Democratic camps across the nation that is getting filtered to their proxies in Central America is a veiled invitation. That veil is lifting lately. Now it is blatant.

The message: “We will accept illegal immigrants and we will protect you from the Republicans.”

This isn’t just a play for votes from Hispanic citizens. This is a future play. The Democrats have known for decades if they’re able to help enough illegal immigrants enter the country and stay here, they will give birth to more Democrats. That’s not a conspiracy theory. This is well understood in quiet Democratic circles. It’s a generational play for power.

“Si se pudo!”

These words can be heard in chants across the caravan. It literally means “yes we could” and is eerily similar to the chants of “yes we can” heard at President Barack Obama’s rallies. This is not a coincidence.

Obama and the Democrats have been beacons of hope for illegal immigrants for over a decade. Adopting his chant as the symbol of their own plight should tell us all where they’re getting their inspiration.

Blocking the wall

If the border wall had been fully funded and in the process of being built, this caravan would never have formed. The Democrats aren’t the only ones to blame for this, of course, as Republicans have failed to use their majorities in the House and Senate to push through enough funding for the rapid building of the wall. Nevertheless, it’s the Democrats who have pushed back the hardest.

If even a few of them had accepted the wall and embraced the protections it gives to every American citizen, we wouldn’t be talking about the caravan today.

With election day two weeks away and early voting already started in most places, the caravan should act as a rallying cry for Republicans and Independents to keep as many Democrats as possible out of office.
