“To restore … harmony … to render us again one people acting as one nation should be the object of every man really a patriot.” —Thomas Jefferson (1801)
I am not sure what kind of toxic fumes have wafted across Long Island Sound to the south shores of Connecticut, but whatever it is, one of the results is two of the certifiably craziest Demos in Congress: Raging Chris Murphy in the Senate and purple-haired Rosa DeLauro in the House.
I have a little history in this once-great state, whose Revolutionary War-era citizens quickly mobilized to defend American Liberty after that first Patriots’ Day 250 years ago at Lexington and Concord.
I had a few skirmishes there myself when attending high school between 1972 and 1975.
I delivered a gratifying knockout blow against a Yankee boy who was disrespectful to Mrs. Mitchell, the delightful older woman who ran our school kitchen, where I was on the dishwashing and cleanup crew every night. I thought I would be expelled over it, but, to my surprise, I got a pat on the back from the headmaster.
A second, more serious skirmish started in a bowling and billiards hall in nearby Old Saybrook one Saturday night during my senior year.
I was there with my friend Carl, the 21-year-old custodian at our high school. Carl happened to be black, and at one point, some of the “townies” decided they did not want a black guy shooting pool. Three of them broke their cue sticks in half and came after us. We stood our ground in the parking lot outside, taking some hits and returning more. Once again, I thought I would be expelled, but, fortunately, the school was never aware of the altercation.
Those years opened the eyes of this Tennessee boy to the fact that racist haters, both white and black, were not just a Southern thing, as stereotyped. I had never experienced ethnic division and racial hatred firsthand until I was a student in Connecticut. And it was my many weekend train trips into Boston and New York where I first experienced widespread “systemic racism.”
Everybody hated everybody. The Italians hated the blacks hated the Irish hated the Jews hated … ad nauseam — overt ethnic and racial division the likes of which I had never experienced in the South. Turns out that ignorance and racism are not geographically specific.
A decade earlier, civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. visited Chicago, which is more violent under black leadership today than it was then. He went there in an effort to cool the then-hotbed of racial hatred, mostly fomented by the Democrat power brokers under then-Mayor Richard Daley. During that visit, MLK declared, “I’ve been to Mississippi and Alabama, and I can tell you that the hatred and hostility in Chicago are really deeper than in Alabama and Mississippi.” No small irony that MLK would be murdered by an Illinois racist in April 1968.
Fact is, today, the violence in Chicago, much like the violence in all Demo urban centers, is grossly disproportionately black-on-black.
That is true of Connecticut’s urban center violence, but you will not hear about that from Chris Murphy or Rosa DeLauro, two of the nation’s loudest Demo hate hustlers.
While Murphy and DeLauro are leading the pack for the craziest members of Congress, Murphy has already lapped DeLauro — twice. He is now demonstrating an accelerating state of paranoid mental decompensation that is second to none.
When I graduated from high school, Connecticut’s Democrat implosion was just in its infancy under Gov. Ella Rosa Giovianna Oliva Grasso. (Ironically, the legislature had officially designated the “Constitution State” as its nickname two decades earlier.) But today, the abject lunacy of Sen. Murphy makes Grasso look like a disciple of Ronald Reagan.
Murphy has set the Demo low bar for Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Last weekend at the so-called “No Kings” protests across the nation, violent Demo rhetoric reared its ugly head again.
This would be the same vitriolic hatred that resulted in two assassination attempts against Donald Trump and others, and the murder of Charlie Kirk.
Kirk’s assassination was clearly inspired by the endless stream of hate rhetoric being spewed by high-profile Demos over the last five years.
Murphy was leading the “No Kings” chorus: “Trump thinks that he can bully us into silence. He thinks that he can intimidate us into sitting this fight out. … I wake up every day filled with that same anger and anxiety, but I feel lucky that I am on Earth at a moment where I can stand up on my two feet and have something to say about maybe the most defining fight of our lifetime, to protect American democracy from ruin.”
Trump must be a very tolerant tyrant king to allow such protests. Indeed, as Fox News’s Brit Hume put it: “The ‘No Kings’ rallies are mostly a protest against a man who sought power 3 times through democratic elections and enacted his major agenda item by majority vote of democratically elected members of Congress. Some king.”
And yeah, Murphy is regurgitating the same incendiary “protect democracy” rhetoric that was incessantly repeated by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
Murphy insists: “Trump does think that he’s a king. … The president of the United States … does not have the power to send masked men into our cities and pull off the streets our peaceful neighbors and throw them into the back of vans and into prisons.”
Apparently, according to Murphy: “We are not on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We are in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. … Our democracy is in peril … but no one is riding to our rescue. And I just want to be clear with you about that today, no one is riding to our rescue. … Trump is the most corrupt president in the history of the United States of America.”
Last month, in the wake of Kirk’s murder to silence his dissenting views, Murphy did not hesitate to warn: “Pay attention. Something dark might be coming. The murder of Charlie Kirk could have united Americans to confront political violence. Instead, Trump and his anti-democratic radicals look to be readying a campaign to destroy dissent. … That’s why it was so important for Trump sycophants to take over the DoJ and FBI, so that if a pretext arose, Trump could orchestrate a dizzying campaign to shut down political opposition groups and lock up or harass its [sic] leaders. This is what could be coming — now. … That means everyone who cares about democracy has to join the fight — right now.”
Then, after the temporary suspension of ABC’s killer jokester, Murphy exclaimed: “It’s happening. The takedown of Jimmy Kimmel is likely the start of a campaign to use the murder of Charlie Kirk as a pretext to use the power of the White House to wipe out Trump’s critics and his political opponents. But we aren’t powerless. We can mobilize and organize. Now.”
Murphy’s warnings about Trump’s tyrannical apocalypse emerged in full color last March in an interview with the leftist New Yorker, during which he insisted Trump will declare himself “King” and refuse to leave the White House in 2028.
“I think the chances are growing that we will not have a free and fair election in 2026,” he insisted, adding that if Trump “breaks the Supreme Court and breaks the Constitution,” then “we could ultimately be living in a situation in which the President just declares that he will stay in office.”
Murphy, like most wealthy white-privilege suburban Demos harbors a deep fear of grassroots Americans. And he is constantly fomenting hatred and division to incite his equally fearful Demo Party constituents.
He is a case study of those infected with what Elon Musk called the Woke Mind Virus. According to Musk: “The woke mind virus consists of creating very, very divisive identity politics … [which] amplifies racism; amplifies, frankly, sexism; and all of the -isms while claiming to do the opposite. It actually divides people and makes them hate each other and hate themselves.”
As of yet, there is no antidote for those so afflicted.
Finally, amid the hateful effluent of Murphy’s rhetoric, there is still only one lone Democrat who has consistently been critical of the insidious Demo rhetoric about Trump and his supporters — Sen. John Fetterman (PA). On the leftist assertions that Trump and his MAGA base are fascists and NAZIs, Fetterman declared: “We have to turn the temperature down. It’s like, we can’t compare people to these kinds of figures in history. [Trump] is not an autocrat. [He] is a product of a democratic election.”
Much to the objection of congressional leftists, Fetterman doubled down this week: “I know and I love people who voted for President Trump. They are NOT fascists, they’re NOT Nazis, they’re NOT trying to destroy the Constitution. … I REFUSE to call people Nazis or fascists. I would never compare anybody — anybody to Hitler. … If that kind of extreme rhetoric is going to continue, [it’s] likely in resulting in extreme kind of outcomes and political violence … like Charlie Kirk.”
