The day after Joe Biden turned in the horrific debate performance that many of us knew was coming, and after countless Democrat apparatchiks finally had to admit what many of us have long known—that Joe Biden is unfit to serve as U.S. President—Biden got out on the campaign trail and declared,
Folks, I don’t walk as easy as I
used to. I don’t speak as smoothly as I used to. I don’t debate as well as I
used to. But I know what I do know. I know how to tell the truth. I know right
from wrong.
Prior to this, immediately after the debate, and just after
treating her husband like a five-year-old who had just finished his tee-ball
game, Jill Biden led
the faithful in declaring Donald Trump a liar. As Joe Biden continues to
resist calls to drop out of the race (though, that
could change soon), the American left is clinging to two particular
refrains when it comes the race for the White House: Donald Trump is a liar and
a “threat to democracy.”
The “threat to democracy” accusation is getting democrats
virtually nowhere. In a richly hilarious bit of irony, a
recent Washington Post poll found that Trump beat Biden by double
digits (44% to 33%) in who would best protect America from “threats to
democracy.” (Can you imagine how difficult it must have been for the Democrat
lackeys at the Washington Post to publish these results?!)
Even more absurd is the Democrat Party touting their
candidate—Joe Biden, or whoever it turns out to be—as an agent of truth. When
it comes to the most important moral issues of our time, few entities have been
on the wrong side of the truth more often than has the Democrat Party and their
apologists.
The democrat platform
has long been a mountain of lies. On everything from abortion to “universal
health care,” the Democrat Party has lied repeatedly, for decades. Since at
least the early 1970s, in order to justify killing the most helpless and
innocent among us—the unborn—the American left has continuously dehumanized
the unborn. They have told countless lies about the consequences of killing
a child in the womb. They have even gone so far as to attempt to justify what
could only
be described as infanticide.
The numerous lies surrounding abortion were born from the
left’s lies on sex. With devastating consequences, the left has preached to generations
of Americans the pagan principle “Do
as thou wilt” when it comes to matters in the sexual realm. Thus, millions
of Americans have been deceived into believing that they can have sex whenever
they like, with whomever they like, without consequence. And, of course, if an
unwanted child results, the left demands the “right” to kill it.
Likewise, the evil LGBT agenda was born out of the left’s
lies on sex. Among much other wickedness, the LGBT agenda has resulted in the
perverse lie that is same-sex
“marriage” along with the absurd lie that, through mutilating their bodies,
human beings can change
their sex.
In the name of more power and control over our lives—just
as we saw with COVID—the left continues to promote the lie that man-made global
warming climate change threatens the planet. This lie has become the “new
religion of first world elites.” This lie also demands trillions of dollars
in a foolish and ineffectual “energy
transition,” that the use
of fossil fuels must stop, and that we should eat
bugs instead of beef.
The left’s lies on police and crime have led to pervasive
and enduring lawlessness in numerous American cities. Of course, this
resulted from the widespread effort to “defund the police” in
democrat-controlled cities and states. Because the left can’t tell the truth
about crime, Democrat-run cities are also littered with the homeless,
squatters, and drug users to the point that millions
of Americans are fleeing these liberal hell-holes.
In an attempt to “Make
America Mexico Again,” or to import
more democrat voters, the left continues to lie about their desire for open
borders and the devastating
consequences of this destructive, intentional
policy. The Biden administration alone has lied over-and-over
again about the crisis
at our southern border. Unsurprisingly, the attempt to bolster this lie with virtue-signaling
“sanctuary city” policies has backfired
big time on Democrats.
One of the most
lucrative lies for the left is the idea that “systemic
racism” still plagues the U.S. This is a rather effective lie as well, as three-fourths
of Joe Biden voters believe that America is a racist nation. Of course, it makes
it rather easy to paint a nation or an individual as racist when almost
everything that exists can described as “racist.”
For example, according to the left, merely
wanting peace and quiet is now “white supremacy.” Similarly, being
fit is racist, the
Electoral College is racist, math
is racist, and even being born white is
racist.
And who can forget the left’s repeated lies on Trump-Russia
collusion and the Hunter Biden laptop? What’s more, the left has long lied
about guns and gun violence, education, the economy, and even the nature
of truth itself.
The
left lies as if it were its native language. For many years now I have said
that one of the greatest tools of Satan in the world today is the Democrat
Party. In John 8:44, speaking of Satan, Jesus declares, “When he lies,
he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.” Given
how frequently and demonstrably the left lies, it seems my claim is spot on.
