As the midterms approach, one way of looking at America’s current disaster is that we, the American people, were lab rats. And since 2021, the Left were the mad scientists, eager to try out their crackpot leftist experiments on us.
The result is that the housing market is tottering on the verge of collapse.
As interest rates soar, our $31 trillion national debt crowds out everything else in the budget.
Inflation roars at a rate of 8-9 percent per annum, higher than at any time in 40 years. Yet the prices of the stuff of life – food, fuel, shelter, energy – are far steeper still than the official rate.
No one is safe from thugs anymore – whether a commuter on a New York subway or the Pelosis in Pacific Heights.
The country reportedly has a 25-day supply of diesel fuel – the energy source that runs the nation. Meanwhile, we keep draining the Strategic Petroleum Reserve of oil, a commodity we have in abundance but refuse to produce fully.
We never fixed the supply-chain crisis of last year, and so still face shortages of key consumer goods.
The labor participation rate is at an all-time low – given fat government COVID subsidies, the Siren-song appeal of staying home after the lockdowns, fear of COVID, and millions of workers with long COVID.
The post-Kabul Pentagon is quiet about the depletion of its critical stocks of weaponry. We have sent billions of dollars’ worth in howitzer shells, javelin missiles, and High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS) to Ukraine without replenishing our own arsenals. The Army’s recruitment rate is off 50% this year.
Our broken Navy is ossifying as China expands its fleet in expectation of absorbing Taiwan.
When we look to the president for an accounting for these madcap experiments, we get nothing. In the last few weeks, President Joe Biden has lied that gas was $5 a gallon when he took office when it was half that.
He falsely swears that he passed his student-loan amnesty plan by one or two votes when he simply signed away a half-trillion dollars in debt by an executive order and bypassed Congress.
Vice President Kamala Harris is our border czar, but she avoids the nonexistent southern border like the plague.
As the country depletes its petroleum reserves, she gushes about “solutions” like transforming the nation’s school bus fleet to battery power.
On the rare occasion she is allowed abroad, Harris has no idea what North Korea’s official name is, only that it is supposedly one of America’s staunchest allies.
We are now headed for a decisive midterm election. Strangely the hard-left architects of the last two years neither offer a defense of their failing agendas, nor agree to change them.
No Democratic congressional candidates brag about the 3 million people who illegally crossed the border.
None boast that they helped cancel key pipelines, reduced federal leasing of gas and oil, and shut down the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. None take credit for hammering investments in fossil fuels.
None preen over the no-bail and defund-the-police policies of left-wing, big-city prosecutors and mayors who have spiked crime.
None insist that an annual 8-9% inflation rate is a desirable spreading of the wealth.
And yet odder still, no Democratic candidate, state or national – and most certainly not Biden – offers to alter these toxic policies.
If they won’t defend what they have done, they apparently will not undo what they have wrought either.
No Democratic gubernatorial candidate wants one foot built of a new border wall. No House candidate demands that the Keystone pipeline be finished. No senatorial candidate calls for fiscal discipline to lower inflation.
Instead, they stay mute.
Biden mutters lies about MAGA extremists under every bed while daily offering yet another made-up tidbit of his fantasy autobiography.
State and national candidates either avoid debates with their Republican opponents or delay them in hopes they will become irrelevant since millions of mail-in ballots are already cast.
Rarely have voters turned over their country to radicals, socialists, and nihilists.
We did in 2020.
And once the Left took the presidency, the House, and Senate, they tried a deadly experiment on us the American people, their veritable lab rats.
It failed – and has now nearly destroyed us along with the country.
Yet in November the Left apparently demands more time for more experimentation on more of us. But to do what exactly?
Pass more no bail laws and promote more defunding of the police? Make the jails and prisons emptier?
More destruction of what’s left of the southern border?
More biological men overpowering women in sports?
More printing of money?
More cutting back on federal gas and oil leases and canceling pipelines?
Apparently, the only thing that will stop their mad experimentation is that they have run out of us – their once willing lab rats.
The answer begins with voting the left out and cleaning the swamp of the administrative agencies that advance their agendas without the authority of Congress
Even if that were possible by tomorrow morning at most it would only buy more time, it would do nothing to stop the proliferation of the cancerous diseases of unreason; the irrational ideas and ideologies of postmodernism, feminism, trangenderism, environmentalism, collectivism, socialism, and statism once and for all. These are all cancerous mutations of UNREASON, of the IRRATIONAL.
The irrational ideas, ideologies, philosophies, etc., all come from the philosophers and intellectuals at the universities, i.e., Herbet Marcuse, John Rawls, Howard Zinn, etc.
If no new philosophy of REASON, logic, and rationality is introduced and taught at the schools America and the West will eventually collapse into a New Dark Age of Unreason.
“The philosophy of the school room in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next.” – Abraham Lincoln

Metics is trash and full of lies and distortions, like listening to a Biden speech!
Yes, very accurate and not understood by very many. Far too many in our culture have at the same time been conditioned to look for and want instant and simple answers, myself included. The seeds of this were planted and cultivated for 100 years or so. it won’t change quickly, if at all, and in all likelihood will grow much greater in political power as the next generation becomes the rulers and older conservatives die out.
These rulers, elites, and oligarchs rule by deception…the same way Hitler did, telling the big lie over and over again.
No, the answer is to start building gallows along Pennsylvania Ave.
Maybe they’ll get the hint.
Perfect description of the present reality.
We can only hope for the red tidal wave and that the RINO’s can grow a sack and govern like conservatives. If they don’t and sit on their hands doing nothing then we are doomed. I don’t have a lot of confidence in the republican party but the alternative is destruction
When Republican leadership is comprised of pricks like Mitch McConnell endorsing Sarah Palin’s opponent and spending millions on Lisa Murkowski, you get the idea we might win inspite of, not because of . . .
Don’t count on the RINO’s
We have to do it ourselves!
A Republican president instituted wage and price controls and abolished what was left of the gold standard, and thus of anything resembling sound money. That was the beginning of this and we’ve never recovered from it.
See reference to RINO’s just above.
Linsey Graham and Mitch McConnel, the rinos, (they aren’t trusted) took over Herschel Walker’s campaign and look what happened. They are rinos and they are working with the globalist left, elites, and the swamp in Washington, The campaign should have been run by Grassroots groups in the state of Georgia. The RNC even took money away from Maga or Conservative candidates to fund their rinos. There should be a full house cleaning.
Victor Davis Hanson is being kind. I don’t think the left are “experimenting” on us — they are methodically employing a well thought out “plan” specifically designed to weaken the country, remove freedoms, and increase their own power, in every possible way, in preparation for the Great Reset. And then do to the entire world what Hitler did to Europe. It’s the usual Socialist playbook, only now on a global instead of national scale. And their only concern is that people don’t wake up and organize quickly enough to stop them. Just my opinion.
And there is no America for us to flee to.
Were mad scientists, and are mad scientists.
i just got home from the hospital sunday afternoon after having a heart attack. just wondering if it was the covid jab that did that to me
Sorry to hear that. I hope you’re recovering well. Why did you decide to have the jab were you threatened with punishments if you refused?
Not all cardiac events are vaccine induced. But way too many are. If your event occurred within 5-6 weeks of your last “booster”, or even “primary”, there is a strong likelihood it is vaccine related.
Many people who took the vaccine also have had blood clots, death, Parkinsons disease, cancer, myocarditis, heart attacks, Bell’s palsy, and miscarriages. It’s a fact, and the facts were suppressed by the government and the CDC, they are still advertising the vaccine and even trying to push it onto young children and even babies. Its called population control by the globalists to reduce earth’s population. No wonder some intelligent medical personnel would not take the vaccine and lost their jobs, they knew there were harmful ingredients in the vaccine, including a spike protein that attaches to the organs and keeps affecting the immune system adversely.
That is worth looking into. Check with Alex Berenson, he’s on Substack.
That was a reply to Chris
Myocarditis, or Pericarditis? Same thing happening to lots of people, along with Parkinsons disease, blood clots, Bell’s palsy, miscarriages, and some cancers. Dr. Harvey Reisch warned us of these things.
Correction:
We did not vote them in 2 years ago.
They took it illegally.
Trying to hide that reality is not the solution Victor.
The Tundra Tabloids ceased updating their site on 6 Jan 2021.
They presumed the American Experiment had concluded and abandoned the url.
I’ll wait to see the composition of the elected body to confirm or contest their contention regarding our demise.
I can’t run away. I die on this hill.
There’s no place left to run to. We all die on this hill — or we win this war.
They’re not experimenting, it’s all purposeful, they intend to destroy the country.
11/08/2022 Hay JOE We lost the country and Walter Cronkite again
PETA opposes the use of lab animals and the Nazis and Commies used People as well
The Nazis were great proponents of animal rights. Humans, not so much. But Fauci tortured both beagles and orphans in his pointless experiments, so he would be a pariah in either system of government.
The takeover of the US government has been to gradually bring down the United States. The last two years have been a check to see how obedient we will be! In short, how much we will absorb and allow without objection or even pushback. Many are behaving like sheeple while others are willing to risk all for freedom and liberty.
This scheme was likely in the works for decades. They simulated a worldwide pandemic and contemplated the destruction of economies and how to respond. They needed a fear-induced crisis to do it through healthcare. The pandemic hit and changed the lifestyles of people in almost 200 nations….The result is lawlessness, mandates, loss of prosperity, and tyranny. This was the most horrific scheme and experiment in human history.
We have a system just begging to be abused by power hungry bureaucrats desperate to retain their power at any cost. Since we are in debt to China, they have been able to change our elections too. After all the Debter, the (U.S.) is the servant to the lender. Its stunningly obvious that money is driving everything, including the vaccine issues, and liberties violated on a daily basis.,
“Rarely have voters turned over their country to radicals, socialists, and nihilists.
We did in 2020.”
Is Dr. Hanson quite certain that we did? Asking for a friend.
Sigh. I dont know why I bother.
You arent going to solve this problem by wagging a finger and saying “bad lefty.” To them that is only confirming they succeeded
The Left are products of the University racket. They are completely insulated from any consequences for their rotten teachings, bc of a mix of non bankrutable student loans and government funding.
As long as you continue forcing stupid kids to pay off worthless loans given in bad faith, the banks will continue giving out those bad loans and the universities will continue being able to con the stupid kids into wasting four years if their lives on useless degrees in garbage.
As long as you continue giving the universities cash taken st gunpoint from taxpayers they will continue to have the funds to hire communist pyschopaths to indoctrinate yet another generation into insanity
You want to solve this? You have to fix it at the source. Get rid of the University’s free money and rhey will be forced to give courses at a competitive rate to customers that expect results
THEY the Demo-rats have nothing to run on soo they will do and say anything to stay in power. They have nothing. if you look at history you will see that COMMUNISM NEVER WORKS look it up. WE have a DICTATOR, WE have the SS, WE have COMMUNIST NEWS WE HAVE COMMUNISM.
The Insane Government we have are the ones making all of this INSANITY that we are living through happen. the only thing to do is VOTE THE DEMS and the BAD REPUBLICANS OUT OF OFFICE, HAVE CORT HEARINGS AND LOCK THEM UP FOR THERE TREASON’S CRIMES. we need the Country back for the People and by the People. Just remember the Dictator needs a war to stop the VOTING ON NOV.8 OR 2024 . WELL THE DICTATOR JUST DID IT BOOTS ARE ON THE GROUND IN A FOUR-N COUNTRY . ONLY THE PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY, CAN STOP THIS INSANITY. THE VOTING MUST GO ON
And yet they bleat endlessly about Democracy. Democracy, Democracy, Democracy! I guess that’s part of their experiment. They have found a trigger word for the masses and they will ring it like Pavlov’s bell until we stop salivating.
For the Democrats, “democracy” means voting for them and ONLY for them. They entice their prey with the heady promise of the Fundamental Transformation of the United States into a Socialist, Third World Banana republic, wherein the losers of the world can sit around and contemplate their navels whilst wallowing in the spoils taken from “The Rich”.
But sooner or later the dogs realize that no food is coming when the bell rings.
To me, the bottom line is the economy. Theses elections (supposedly fair) show that it ISN’T the economy, stupid it shows that at least half the country wants what socialism brings. I think Thomas Sowell is right-I’m not optimistic about our country I’m heartbroken to say.
Gain of function created the Bio weapon. This was not a vaccine created to stop the Covid virus, it was to undermine your immune system and control the population. You’re looking at full fledged communism to wipe out big numbers of population, goes right along with Bill Gates plans. the Bible says that America must be removed and in decline so the antichrist can move in with all the globalist plans, climate change, the one world religion, the diversity from open borders. and the destruction and tracking of the populations with forced vaccine mandates.
