THE CAPE CHARLES MIRROR January 28, 2021 at 11:26 pm
Paul Plante says:
Yes, indeed, people, strange times indeed these we find ourselves in, where the Democrats, ever a clear and present danger to OUR Republic, have launched a major offensive against RULE OF LAW here in the United States of America in favor of making it up as they go, and Charley “Chuck” Schumer, said to have suffered a massive erection at the thought of finally being able to schtup Trump but good after Nancy Pelosi impeached him and made him Charley “Chuck” Schumer’s “meat,” is not the only dangerously out-of-control Democrat to be hurling around very serious charges of an insurrection against the government of Donald Trump, Virginia Senator Tim Kaine is doing the same thing, except on a more extensive scale, hurling the indictment of being insurrectionists at American citizens without a shred of proof to back up the charges as we see in a recent indictment of Senator Ted Cruz and Senator Josh Hawley for insurrection, even though there was no insurrection, by Tim Kaine, to wit:
Senators File Ethics Committee Complaint Regarding Colleagues’ Role in Jan. 6 Insurrection
January 21, 2021
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Senators Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), Ron Wyden (D-OR), Tina Smith (D-MN), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Mazie Hirono (D-HI), Tim Kaine (D-VA), and Sherrod Brown (D-OH) lodged today a complaint with the Senate Ethics Committee concerning the behavior of Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Josh Hawley (R-MO) related to the deadly insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on January 6.
end quotes
Yes, people, so even though there really was no insurrection, there was an insurrection because Nancy Pelosi said there was, AOC said there was, a Junta of generals loyal to Joe Biden said there was, Joe Biden himself said there was, Tim Kaine and the Senate Democrats said there was one, and the main-stream media said there was one, so that makes it very, very conclusive that there had to be an insurrection on 6 January 2021, because they couldn’t say there was one, otherwise.
Getting back to the Kaine Indictment of Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley, it continues as follows:
While Congress was debating Senator Cruz’s objection, a violent mob stormed the Capitol.
These insurrectionists ransacked the building, stole property, and openly threatened Members of Congress and the Vice President.
Dozens of police officers were injured; five people died, including U.S. Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick.
By the time the Capitol was secured and the count resumed, four insurrectionists had died.
end quotes
Four insurrectionists had died?
What kind of reprehensible (deserving censure or condemnation) horse**** is that, to be condemning people who are now deceased of being “insurrectionists” with no trial, no evidence and no chance for them to be able to clear their names, which will now be smeared forever by these Democrats?
And were those people condemned for eternity as insurrectionists by Tim Kaine really involved in any kind of “insurrection” in Washington on 6 January 2021?
For that answer, let’s go to a CNN story entitled “What we know about the 5 deaths in the pro-Trump mob that stormed the Capitol” by Eric Levenson, Amir Vera and Mallika Kallingal on January 8, 2021, where we have as follows:
Three other people who had come from out of state died of “medical emergencies” during the riot, police said.
“One adult female and two adult males appear to have suffered from separate medical emergencies, which resulted in their deaths,” Contee said.
“Any loss of life in the District is tragic and our thoughts are with anyone impacted by their loss.”
They were identified as Benjamin Philips, 50, of Ringtown, Pennsylvania; Kevin Greeson, 55, of Athens, Alabama; and Rosanne Boyland, 34, of Kennesaw, Georgia.
The three were on the grounds of the Capitol when they experienced their medical emergencies, Contee said.
Kevin Greeson
Greeson had a history of high blood pressure and suffered a heart attack amid the excitement, his family said in a statement to CNN.
He was an advocate of Trump and attended the event to show his support.
end quotes
Which is all it takes in America today now that the Democrats have seized power to be labeled and condemned as an “insurrectionist” by Virginia Senator Tim Kaine.
Getting back to CNN, it continues as follows with respect to who these dead “insurrectionists” really are, to wit:
“He was excited to be there to experience this event,” the statement said.
“He was not there to participate in violence or rioting, nor did he condone such actions.”
end quotes
WHOA!
Stop the press!
Scrub that sentence that he was not there to participate in violence or rioting, nor did he condone such actions, because it directly attempts to contradict the fact that he really was an insurrectionist, which we know he was because Tim Kaine said so, and in America today, people, that is really all that is needed for someone to be adjudged an insurrectionist – the word of a Democrat that they were.
Getting back to CNN:
The family says they are devastated by the loss.
“Kevin was a wonderful father and husband who loved life,” the family statement said.
“He loved to ride motorcycles, he loved his job and his coworkers, and he loved his dogs.”
end quotes
And in America today under the Democrats, that is what it takes to be labeled an insurrectionist and condemned for eternity as an insurrectionist against one’s own country such as was this man was by Virginia Senator Tim Kaine – being a wonderful father and husband in a stable, nuclear family who loved life, loved to ride motorcycles, loved his job and his coworkers, and loved his dogs.
Why?
Because those are the kind of people in America that Virginia Senator Tim Kaine and the Democrats hate, apparently!
Getting back to CNN:
Boyland’s family is also mourning her death, her brother-in-law, Justin Cave, told CNN affiliate WGCL.
The family is still working to learn more details about the specifics of her death, he said.
As the family watched Wednesday’s events, they hoped that Boyland wasn’t among the crowd, Cave said.
“Tragically she was there and it cost her life,” he said.
“She was a wonderful sister, daughter, and aunt.”
“Anyone who knew her knows how compassionate she was, she always put others before herself,” Cave said.
end quotes
But none of that matters, because she too is damned for eternity as an insurrectionist by Virginia Senator Tim Kaine, and if there is anybody out there who doesn’t think this is the rankest kind of political bull**** ever, condemning people as criminals without evidence, without trial, without due process, the only thing I can think is they would have to be a Democrat, too!

"Pelosi says part of Capitol Hill security issue is 'the enemy is within the House of Representatives'"
By Daniella Diaz, Annie Grayer and Kristin Wilson, CNN
Updated 7:39 PM ET, Thu January 28, 2021
(CNN)House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told reporters Thursday that she's committed to addressing the concerns of her colleagues over security but said that effort is hampered because "the enemy is within the House of Representatives," referencing the rhetoric and behavior of some Republican members of Congress.
Pelosi was asked about how members are concerned for their own security in the wake of the Capitol attack and violent rhetoric from other members, following a letter more than 30 lawmakers signed asking for more flexibility regarding the use of congressional allowance for personal security in their home districts and other security related requests.
Pelosi also cited a security review currently being conducted by retired Lt. General Russel Honoré, with whom she met on Thursday to receive an initial assessment.
"So we want to have a scientific approach to how we protect members," Pelosi said at her weekly news conference.
"I do believe and I have said this all along we will probably need a supplemental for more security for members when the enemy is within the House of Representatives, a threat that members are concerned about in addition to what is happening outside."
When pressed by reporters about what she meant by that comment, Pelosi said, "it means that we have members of Congress who want to bring guns on the floor and have threatened violence on other members of Congress."
Pelosi did not clarify which lawmakers she was referencing.
US Capitol Police had investigated an incident in which a Republican lawmaker was stopped from bringing a concealed gun onto the House floor last week, sources told CNN, the first time a member of Congress has been discovered with a firearm by the metal detectors now set up outside the legislative chamber.
In response to the letter requesting additional resources and flexibility for security, Pelosi said Thursday the concerns in a letter from lawmakers requesting more flexibility for using their congressional allowances has already been addressed.
"First of all, I appreciate the letter from the members but most of the questions, items on the list, have already been done," she said.
"Perhaps they were not aware, and I take responsibility for them not being aware."
Her remarks come after more than 30 House members sent a letter to Pelosi and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy on Thursday requesting more flexibility for using their congressional allowances toward helping their personal safety by hiring local law enforcement or other security personnel for their home district offices.
"While the U.S. Capitol is protected by the United States Capitol Police with the support of strong security measures, including vehicle barriers and metal detectors, most Members spend the majority of their time in their Congressional Districts where security is often sparse," they wrote in the letter.
"Protecting Members in their District is much harder because local law enforcement agencies are stretched and limited, and often don't have sufficient staffing or money to provide regular protection to Members."
"Except for Leadership, Members do not have security details protecting them."
Thursday's letter took issue with existing rules regarding the rules governing member allowance use, describing the protocols as "constrictive and anachronistic, set in a time before the current."
CBS News first reported the letter.
The request is the latest development in a string of reactions to the deadly Capitol Hill riot on January 6 that has shaken lawmakers and their staff.
As threats continue to mount against members of Congress, concern is growing about the safety of some lawmakers when they travel outside Washington and the security bubble it provides, multiple sources told CNN earlier this week.
The letter was written by Democratic Reps. Josh Gottheimer of New Jersey and Dean Phillips of Minnesota and addressed to Pelosi, McCarthy, and the chairwoman and ranking Republican member of the House Administration Committee, Reps. Zoe Lofgren of California and Rodney Davis of Illinois.
While the list was mostly signed by Democrats, one Republican signed onto the letter — Rep. Fred Upton of Michigan.
This comes after the Committee on House Administration sent a letter to members earlier this month reminding them of various options they had for security-related expenses "in light of the tragic events related to the seditious breach of the Capitol."
The January 11 letter circulated to members reminded them that in their districts, they can get reimbursed for having security at a district event or outside district offices.
The letter instructed members that the House Sergeant at Arms will provide "certain security enhancements" for district offices and that a bullet proof vest and security training are also considered reimbursable expenses.
Yogananda Pittman, the acting chief of the US Capitol Police, on Thursday called for permanent fencing and other enhanced security measures around the Capitol complex.
"In light of recent events, I can unequivocally say that vast improvements to the physical security infrastructure must be made to include permanent fencing, and the availability of ready, back-up forces in close proximity to the Capitol," Pittman said in a statement.
Pittman continued: "I look forward to working with Congress on identifying the security improvements necessary to ensure the safety and security of the Congress and the U.S. Capitol."
But lawmakers on both sides of the aisle pushed back on the idea of fencing around the Capitol.
Democratic Rep. Jake Auchincloss, a Massachusetts freshman, tweeted that it would be a "mistake to turn the home of our democracy into a fortress."
Rep. Elise Stefanik, a New York Republican, tweeted, "This is the People's House."
"I am adamantly opposed."
"There has been no threat briefing given to Members of Congress to justify this proposal."
Asked about Pittman's recommendations, Pelosi deputy chief of staff Drew Hammill said in a statement that "the Speaker looks forward to General Honoré's final assessment."
In her own statement after meeting with Honoré, Pelosi said his initial assessment "covered operational readiness, interagency cooperation, security infrastructure and the morale and readiness of institutional staff."
"As we consider the need for an emergency supplemental funding bill to meet institutional security needs, I want to thank the General for reviewing what is necessary for the Capitol Police to do their jobs," Pelosi said.
The acting head of the US Capitol Police told congressional members during a closed-door briefing Tuesday that the "department failed to meet its own high standards" on January 6 when a crowd of pro-Trump rioters overran the Capitol building.
Pittman called the insurrection a "terrorist attack" and offered her "sincerest apologies on behalf of the department," according to her prepared remarks during a briefing for lawmakers on the House Appropriations Committee with a number of agencies that had a role in security on January 6.
This story and headline have been updated with additional developments Thursday.

And talk about an absolutely weird and totally bizarre plot twist as only these zany, totally whacked-out Democrats can give us, where a “plot twist” for those of you who aren’t English Lit. scholars (note for full disclosure and transparency: I’m not either, nor did I go to Harvard) is a literary technique that introduces a radical change in the direction or expected outcome of the plot in a work of fiction, which is what this insurrection BULL**** really is, a work of pure fiction from DEMOCRAT CENTRAL and the script writers and illusionists of Hollywood and Disneyland which are both in the congressional district of BIG DOG DEMOCRAT Adam Schiff who did quite well for himself and the party financially with his prolific fund-raising effort conducted while he was in the process of impeaching Trump the first time the Democrats impeached Trump.
And here I am referring to a shocking-to-the-senses, blockbuster Cuomo News Network (CNN) story entitled “Pelosi says part of Capitol Hill security issue is ‘the enemy is within the House of Representatives'” by Daniella Diaz, Annie Grayer and Kristin Wilson (the story is so shocking and bizarre it takes not one, not two, but three people to tell it, it is so immense in depth) on January 28, 2021, where we have this incredibly shocking news from straight out of Washington, D.C., a heavily fortified city under siege by an insurgency led by Donald Trump, whose regime was toppled by a very Machiavellian Democrat coup on 6 January 2021 where a violent Democrat mob installed Joe Biden as president in place of the ousted Trump, to wit:

OMG, people, do you know what I am saying?
Nancy Pelosi is now so hated in America that she cannot even trust anyone around her, and is said to be being fitted out in the latest hi-tech form-fitted titanium battle armor that can withstand a direct hit from a depleted uranium sabot round fired by the main gun on an M-1 Abrams battle tank that the military-industrial complex Pelosi controls is producing for officials like Pelosi who are very much hated and reviled, and might I add in the case of Pelosi, some would say with good reason, although that is considered seditious to think that way these troubled days and so I won’t mention any names.
Getting back to that shocking and highly disturbing story of Nancy Pelosi now being in constant danger of some Republican coming up behind her to give her a good goose or a wedgie, it goes on as follows:

But, c’mon, people, do facts really matter here?
Does Nancy Pelosi really need any kind of proof any of this is true and not absolutely false?
And of course, she doesn’t!
It is how Nancy feels, and that is really all we need to know, since in this narrative, Nancy Pelosi is a heroine like Cicero was a hero when he put down the Catiline conspiracy and had the conspirators strangled so they couldn’t tell anyone a different story than the one Cicero had already made up to make him look like he and he alone had saved Rome from a HUGE disaster, the way Nancy Pelosi has single-handedly saved our nation in these last few days after “THE GREAT INSURRECTION” against the administration of Donald Trump.

Now, there is an idea for these very troubled times we are in – wall off the capitol, fence it with razor wire, put in machine gun emplacements, and keep anyone who is not a Democrat out!

Now, there is an idea for these very troubled times we are in – wall off the capitol, fence it with razor wire, put in machine gun emplacements, and keep anyone who is not a Democrat out!
As I say, a very bizarre plot twist, indeed!
And here I have to say that as I think about this bizarre narrative the Democrats are presenting us with, the metaphorical scene I see playing out here is captured in this short sequence from the movie “Black Rain,” where the Democrats have run Trump to ground in a sub-basement of Mar-A-Lago as he was on the run for his deep underground bunker, to wit:

"AOC to Ted Cruz: 'You almost had me murdered 3 weeks ago'"
Christopher Wilson·Senior Writer
Thu, January 28, 2021, 1:49 PM
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said Thursday that she was willing to work with Republicans to investigate the stock trading app Robinhood, but not Sen. Ted Cruz, who she accused of attempted murder for his role in encouraging the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
On Twitter, Cruz seconded an Ocasio-Cortez tweet about investigating Robinhood’s decision to halt trading on a number of stocks, including GameStop, on Thursday, to which the New York congresswoman responded.
“I am happy to work with Republicans on this issue where there’s common ground, but you almost had me murdered 3 weeks ago so you can sit this one out,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote.
“Happy to work w/almost any other GOP that aren’t trying to get me killed."
" In the meantime if you want to help, you can resign."
"While you conveniently talk about ‘moving on,’ a second Capitol police officer lost their life yesterday in the still-raging aftermath of the attacks you had a role in."
"This isn’t a joke."
"We need accountability, and that includes a new Senator from Texas.”
Five people, including a Capitol Police officer, died during the Jan. 6 riot, staged by supporters of former President Donald Trump at the Capitol building to disrupt the certification of the presidential election results.
Dozens of officers were injured in the violent melee, and two officers have committed suicide in the weeks since.
A number of House members tested positive for COVID-19 in the days following the incident after being in lockdown with colleagues who were not wearing masks.
Calling out Cruz on Twitter on Thursday, Ocasio-Cortez directed at least partial blame for the riot at the junior Republican senator from Texas.
“You haven’t even apologized for the serious physical + mental harm you contributed to from Capitol Police & custodial workers to your own fellow members of Congress."
"In the meantime, you can get off my timeline & stop clout-chasing,” Ocasio-Cortez added.
“Thanks."
"Happy to work with other GOP on this.”

Isn’t this **** rich?
Ted Cruz, in addition to being an insurrectionist, a serious crime in and of itself, is now also guilty of the attempted murder of AOC!
Can anyone believe this stuff this hysterical and out-of-control woman is screeching about?
If Ted Cruz is guilty of the attempted murder of AOC, a doubly serious charge given her celebrity status as a high-ranking Democrat, why isn’t he behind bars?
Why is a monster like that who attempted to murder AOC being allowed to walk free so he can try to murder AOC a second or even a third time?
What the heck is wrong with that picture, people?
Getting back to the story, it continues as follows:
On Twitter, Cruz seconded an Ocasio-Cortez tweet about investigating Robinhood’s decision to halt trading on a number of stocks, including GameStop, on Thursday, to which the New York congresswoman responded.

Yes, indeed, people, when it comes to political speechwriters writing the dramatic lines that these politicians like AOC like to spout to sound like they might have a clue as to what they are talking about, while at the same time making it clear to everybody that can discern these things that they are really the innocent victim, which AOC always is, since this narrative is about her and nobody else since AOC is now the new face of the new Democrat party in America, and so it would only stand to reason that the narrative would be about her, and not Ted Cruz, who almost very nearly murdered AOC, which is quite a story in and of itself and perhaps if we are lucky, when she gets over the trauma of almost having the life throttled out of her by Ted Cruz as he was attempting to murder her, she will be able to give us some more of the details, including clarifying the rumor that some type of “bad touch” might have been involved, as well.
Getting back to the drama, it goes on as follows, because with AOC, the story of her victimhood here in America at the hands of heteronormative white men like Ted Cruz who is the first person of Cuban or Latino descent to hold the office of Senator from Texas, never ends, to wit:
Calling out Cruz on Twitter on Thursday, Ocasio-Cortez directed at least partial blame for the riot at the junior Republican senator from Texas.

“In the meantime, you can get off my timeline & stop clout-chasing,” Ocasio-Cortez added.
“Thanks.”
end quotes
And we know that AOC was almost very nearly assassinated that day, besides Ted Cruz almost murdering her, because we have the “smoking gun” in the form of a confessed insurrectionist as we can clearly see in the CNBC story “Capitol rioter Garret Miller says he was following Trump’s orders, apologizes to AOC for threat” by Dan Mangan on Jan. 25 2021, as follows:
A Texas man charged with invading the Capitol and threatening Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said Monday that he was effectively following then-President Donald Trump’s orders when he joined a mob that stormed Congress on Jan. 6.
Garret Miller also apologized to Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., for writing “Assassinate AOC” in a Twitter post.
He said he would be willing to testify to Congress or in a trial about the riot.
end quotes
And my goodness, what a powerful witness this ******* moron would make in a congressional hearing with Adam Schiff probing for all the gory details of how Trump and Ted Cruz conspired with each other to get this ******* moron up from Ted Cruz’s hometown of Texas as their hit man to off AOC, of all people.
Getting back to that story, we have more details of how AOC was almost very nearly assassinated, as follows:
The Richardson resident’s apology came as a federal judge in Dallas ordered him detained without bail pending trial, after finding he was both a danger to the community and a flight risk, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Texas.
end quotes
So, we have some jailhouse remorse going here, as the ******* moron looks at life through those cold steel bars.
Getting back to it:
Miller is one of dozens of people charged with participating in the riot, which began shortly after Trump held a rally outside the White House, where he urged supporters to pressure Congress to reject the election of Joe Biden as president.
end quotes
Now, notice that he is being charged with being in a riot, not as an insurrectionist, because there was no insurrection, there was a coup, which takes us back to the story as follows:
In a statement released by defense attorney Clinton Broden, Miller said he had been motivated by Trump’s false claims about having been cheated out of reelection by ballot fraud and said, “I am ashamed of my comments.”
“I was in Washington, D.C. on January 6, 2021, because I believed I was following the instructions of former President Trump and he was my president and the commander-in-chief.”
end quotes
Trump was his commander-in-chief?
Getting back to it:
“His statements also had me believing the election was stolen from him,” Miller said.
“Nevertheless, I fully recognize Joe Biden is now the President of the United States and that the election is over.”
“Donald Trump is no longer president and I would not have any reason to continue to follow his lead.”
“While I never intended to harm Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez nor harm any members of the Capitol police force, I recognize that my social media posts were completely inappropriate.”
“They were made at a time when Donald Trump had me believing that an American election was stolen,” he said.
Miller said: “I want to publicly apologize to Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez and the Capitol police officers.”
“I have always supported law enforcement and I am ashamed by my comments.”
Miller, who was arrested last Wednesday, said that “until very recently,” he had not been interested in or involved with politics.
“Nevertheless, what Donald Trump had been saying about the election really got to me and I felt I had to support him.”
“Still, I recognize that I am solely responsible for my actions and that there are no excuses for what I did,” he added.
“I come from a good and supportive family.”
“My parents and brothers do not deserve the pain I have caused them.”
“I accept full responsibility for my actions and I am prepared to testify at any trial or Congressional proceeding,” Miller said.
Miller is charged in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., with: knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted buildings or grounds without lawful authority; violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds; obstructing or impeding any official proceeding; certain acts during civil disorder, and threats in interstate commerce.
Ocasio-Cortez has said that she feared for her life during the riot and members of Congress were “nearly assassinated.”
“I did not know if I was going to make it to the end of that day alive, and not just in a general sense but also in a very, very specific sense,” she said on an Instagram Live video on Jan. 12, without giving more details.
end quotes
And if that is not enough drama for you for one day, people, simply stay tuned, because when it comes to AOC, the drama is never ending!
I’m waiting for her to get some Martians involved in the plot to almost very nearly assassinate her, myself.
That would really add some drama, is my thought, because everybody knows how thoroughly dastardly those Martians can be when they want to, especially when they are conspiring with Trump and Ted Cruz to almost very nearly assassinate AOC!

And before we go further into why the concept of Joe Biden of all people in this country uniting all of the people in the United States of America is patently absurd, laughable and ludicrous, to understand more about how and why that is so, we need to first go back to the comment of our esteemed Constitutional scholar G Anderson @ January 23, 2021 at 3:27 pm, where he posted as follows, to wit:
Isn’t democracy designed for the “Common Good”.
A dictatorship is designed for personal interest.
end quotes
Not at all so, I reply, when we are talking about the Marxist dictatorship that descended down on America on 6 January 2021 when a howling, shrieking, violent mob of Democrats stormed the U.S. Capitol and installed Joe Biden as DICTATOR of the United States of America in the style of the Marxists who now rule America, as we see in a political essay touting Marxism by Lea Ypi of the London School of Economics entitled “Legitimacy, Dictatorship and Utopia: A Marxist Perspective on Political Authority,” to wit:
Dictatorship for Marx and Engels is not the rule of one man as in the Roman republic.
Nor is it rule by a group of revolutionary leaders over a mass of uncultivated people, as in the French revolutionary case.
It is the rule of the oppressed majority of people, sufficiently aware of their oppression to want to change the existing state of affairs.
The way to reach this awareness where it is absent is through democratic political activism and the attempt to develop the political character of class struggle.
end quotes
The “oppressed majority,” of course, are the “people of color” and the LGBQT’s, nice people all, who through political activism put Joe Biden into the Oval Office as their “running dog” (a servile follower, especially of a political system) and cat’s-paw (a person who is used by another to carry out an unpleasant or dangerous task as in “Joe Biden was merely a cat’s paw of the Marxists in America).
Getting back to Marx, who is the Godhead of the Democrats, we have:
Marx and Engels’s conception of dictatorship has a profound democratic character, in line with the traditional understanding of democracy as rule by the people.
The distinction between dictatorship over the proletariat and dictatorship of the proletariat is essential to underline this point.
The political form so described exemplifies precisely the process of involvement and concrete political activity of the majority of the oppressed in the course of taking back control over the conditions of their social life.
It begins a work of social emancipation which does not rely on an elite of professional politicians, technocratic institutions or bureaucratic managers to achieve its desired political objectives but takes radical freedom to be progressively vindicated in the process of making oneself free.
As Lenin explained in seeking to further articulate Marx’s conception of legitimacy, the idea of democracy for the majority is different from the idea of complete democracy. 38
Thus the dictatorship of the proletariat is still different from communist society; only the latter can fully realise freedom.
Communism alone, Lenin emphasised, is capable of providing “really complete democracy, democracy without exceptions”.
Only in communism are people able to observe the elementary rules of social life “without force, without compulsion, without subordination, without the special apparatus for compulsion that is called the state“.
When the system is pervasively corrupt in the way we have described, losers have reasons to want to change it.
They rebel and seek to modify the rules governing the economic and social structure.
A period of political revolution ensues.
Losers re-write the constitution, profoundly modify property arrangements, change inheritance rules, abolish economic privileges and use the coercive power of the state to prepare the transition to a society in which everyone is truly free.
This is the dictatorship of the proletariat.
The dictatorship of the proletariat is not the final goal of the revolution, it is an institution that exercises political authority on a provisional basis.
end quotes
And that is exactly where we are now in this nation as of 6 January 2021, when Joe Biden assumed the dictatorship of America, which takes us to a story in RIGZONE entitled “Schumer Wants Biden to Bypass Congress on Climate” by Bloomberg | Ari Natter & Jennifer A. Dlouhy on January 26, 2021, where we have the Democratic Socialist “running dog” Charley “Chuck” Schumer, like Mark Antony, when the feast of the Lupercalia was being celebrated, carrying a diadem with a wreath of laurel tied round it, and holding it out to Caesar, encouraging Joe Biden to be a true Caesarian dictator, to wit:
(Bloomberg) — Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer called for President Joe Biden to declare a climate emergency, a controversial move that would give the new administration sweeping authority to circumvent Congress to combat global warming.
end quotes
Yes, indeed, people, Joe Biden as dictator does not need Congress, since as dictator, he can simply make laws on his own, which takes us back to that story, to wit:
Declaring a climate emergency could unlock new powers for Biden, including the ability to redirect funding for clean energy projects, shut down crude oil exports, suspend offshore drilling and curtail the movement of fossil fuels on pipelines, trains, and ships.
end quotes
Declaring a climate emergency allows Joe Biden to slip in the GREEN NEW DEAL of Democratic Socialist heroine AOC without any congressional oversight whatsoever is what it does, which again takes us back to that story, as follows:
Schumer also said he thought his party could advance major parts of a climate agenda — even a ban on conventional, gas-powered cars — through budget reconciliation, a process that allows easier passage of some tax and spending legislation on a simple majority vote.
Schumer emphasized that Democrats could use reconciliation to enact a ban on the manufacture of internal combustion engines powered by oil- and plant-based fuels.
He has previously said that if Democrats won control of the Senate he would put an ambitious $454 billion plan on the floor to remove gas-powered vehicles from American roads by 2040.
Biden has vowed to decarbonize the electricity sector by 2035 as part of his goal to reach zero net emissions by 2050, though many elements of his plan would require Congress to act.
The White House had no immediate comment on Schumer’s suggestion of declaring a climate emergency.
But a White House official said the president understands the magnitude of the climate crisis and cited his climate proposal calling for a whole-of-government approach.
Opponents of declaring an emergency have warned it could radicalize climate protection and alienate moderate Democrats whose support is needed to pass other major legislation, such as infrastructure spending, that could contain climate-related provisions.
Still, some environmentalists were heartened by the New York Democrat’s idea.
“Declaring a national emergency isn’t just symbolic,” said Brett Hartl, government affairs director at the Center for Biological Diversity.
“It unlocks additional powers to take on the climate crisis, and we can’t afford to wait any longer to muster the full powers of the federal government to combat this existential crisis.”

Declaring a climate emergency allows Joe Biden to slip in the GREEN NEW DEAL of Democratic Socialist heroine AOC without any congressional oversight whatsoever is what it does, which again takes us back to that story, as follows:
Schumer also said he thought his party could advance major parts of a climate agenda — even a ban on conventional, gas-powered cars — through budget reconciliation, a process that allows easier passage of some tax and spending legislation on a simple majority vote.
Schumer emphasized that Democrats could use reconciliation to enact a ban on the manufacture of internal combustion engines powered by oil- and plant-based fuels.
He has previously said that if Democrats won control of the Senate he would put an ambitious $454 billion plan on the floor to remove gas-powered vehicles from American roads by 2040.
Biden has vowed to decarbonize the electricity sector by 2035 as part of his goal to reach zero net emissions by 2050, though many elements of his plan would require Congress to act.
The White House had no immediate comment on Schumer’s suggestion of declaring a climate emergency.
But a White House official said the president understands the magnitude of the climate crisis and cited his climate proposal calling for a whole-of-government approach.
Opponents of declaring an emergency have warned it could radicalize climate protection and alienate moderate Democrats whose support is needed to pass other major legislation, such as infrastructure spending, that could contain climate-related provisions.
Still, some environmentalists were heartened by the New York Democrat’s idea.
“Declaring a national emergency isn’t just symbolic,” said Brett Hartl, government affairs director at the Center for Biological Diversity.
“It unlocks additional powers to take on the climate crisis, and we can’t afford to wait any longer to muster the full powers of the federal government to combat this existential crisis.”

Thirteen individuals have been charged so far in federal court in the District of Columbia related to crimes committed at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C, on Wednesday, Jan. 6, 2021.
In addition to those who have been charged, additional complaints have been submitted and investigations are ongoing.
“The lawless destruction of the U.S. Capitol building was an attack against one of our Nation’s greatest institutions,” said Acting U.S. Attorney Michael Sherwin.
“My Office, along with our law enforcement partners at all levels, have been expeditiously working and leveraging every resource to identify, arrest, and begin prosecuting these individuals who took part in the brazen criminal acts at the U.S. Capitol.”
“We are resolute in our commitment to holding accountable anyone responsible for these disgraceful criminal acts, and to anyone who might be considering engaging in or inciting violence in the coming weeks – know this: you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
“ATF is committed to the rule of law and the protection of all citizens’ Constitutional rights,” said Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) Deputy Director Regina Lombardo.
“We continue to support our law enforcement partners to ensure those who violated the law during the events at the Capitol this week are brought to justice.”
“ATF has dedicated all appropriate resources to complete these investigations as soon as possible.”

“The FBI, along with our local, state and federal partners, is committed to ensuring that justice is served.”
“We will continue to aggressively investigate each and every individual who chose to ignore the law and instead incite violence, destroy property, and injure others.”
“Deputy U.S. Marshals responded to support U.S. Capitol Police after the incursion into the Capitol building.”

Re: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
THE CAPE CHARLES MIRROR February 1, 2021 at 9:20 pm
Paul Plante says:
And before we go further in here, it is important to have as background the catechism adhered to by Barack Obama which was passed down to Joe Biden as Obama’s anoited successor, which catechism guides the actions of the Democrats, and especially Democratic Socialist “running dog” Charley “Chuck” Schumer today, to wit:
Frederick Engels
The Principles of Communism
Written: October-November 1847
— 1 —
What is Communism?
Communism is the doctrine of the conditions of the liberation of the proletariat.
— 2 —
What is the proletariat?
The proletariat is that class in society which lives entirely from the sale of its labor and does not draw profit from any kind of capital; whose weal and woe, whose life and death, whose sole existence depends on the demand for labor – hence, on the changing state of business, on the vagaries of unbridled competition.
— 7 —
In what way do proletarians differ from slaves?
The slave is sold once and for all; the proletarian must sell himself daily and hourly.
The individual slave, property of one master, is assured an existence, however miserable it may be, because of the master’s interest.
The individual proletarian, property as it were of the entire bourgeois class which buys his labor only when someone has need of it, has no secure existence.
This existence is assured only to the class as a whole.
The slave is outside competition; the proletarian is in it and experiences all its vagaries.
The slave counts as a thing, not as a member of society.
Thus, the slave can have a better existence than the proletarian, while the proletarian belongs to a higher stage of social development and, himself, stands on a higher social level than the slave.
The slave frees himself when, of all the relations of private property, he abolishes only the relation of slavery and thereby becomes a proletarian; the proletarian can free himself only by abolishing private property in general.
— 14 —
What will this new social order have to be like?
Above all, it will have to take the control of industry and of all branches of production out of the hands of mutually competing individuals, and instead institute a system in which all these branches of production are operated by society as a whole – that is, for the common account, according to a common plan, and with the participation of all members of society.
It will, in other words, abolish competition and replace it with association.
Moreover, since the management of industry by individuals necessarily implies private property, and since competition is in reality merely the manner and form in which the control of industry by private property owners expresses itself, it follows that private property cannot be separated from competition and the individual management of industry.
Private property must, therefore, be abolished and in its place must come the common utilization of all instruments of production and the distribution of all products according to common agreement – in a word, what is called the communal ownership of goods.
In fact, the abolition of private property is, doubtless, the shortest and most significant way to characterize the revolution in the whole social order which has been made necessary by the development of industry – and for this reason it is rightly advanced by communists as their main demand.
— 18 —
What will be the course of this revolution?
Above all, it will establish a democratic constitution, and through this, the direct or indirect dominance of the proletariat.
Democracy would be wholly valueless to the proletariat if it were not immediately used as a means for putting through measures directed against private property and ensuring the livelihood of the proletariat.
The main measures, emerging as the necessary result of existing relations, are the following:
(i) Limitation of private property through progressive taxation, heavy inheritance taxes, abolition of inheritance through collateral lines (brothers, nephews, etc.) forced loans, etc.
(ii) Gradual expropriation of landowners, industrialists, railroad magnates and shipowners, partly through competition by state industry, partly directly through compensation in the form of bonds.
(iii) Confiscation of the possessions of all emigrants and rebels against the majority of the people.
(iv) Organization of labor or employment of proletarians on publicly owned land, in factories and workshops, with competition among the workers being abolished and with the factory owners, in so far as they still exist, being obliged to pay the same high wages as those paid by the state.
(v) An equal obligation on all members of society to work until such time as private property has been completely abolished.
Formation of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.
(vi) Centralization of money and credit in the hands of the state through a national bank with state capital, and the suppression of all private banks and bankers.
(vii) Increase in the number of national factories, workshops, railroads, ships; bringing new lands into cultivation and improvement of land already under cultivation – all in proportion to the growth of the capital and labor force at the disposal of the nation.
(viii) Education of all children, from the moment they can leave their mother’s care, in national establishments at national cost.
Education and production together.
(ix) Construction, on public lands, of great palaces as communal dwellings for associated groups of citizens engaged in both industry and agriculture and combining in their way of life the advantages of urban and rural conditions while avoiding the one-sidedness and drawbacks of each.
(x) Destruction of all unhealthy and jerry-built dwellings in urban districts.
(xi) Equal inheritance rights for children born in and out of wedlock.
(xii) Concentration of all means of transportation in the hands of the nation.
It is impossible, of course, to carry out all these measures at once.
But one will always bring others in its wake.
Once the first radical attack on private property has been launched, the proletariat will find itself forced to go ever further, to concentrate increasingly in the hands of the state all capital, all agriculture, all transport, all trade.
All the foregoing measures are directed to this end; and they will become practicable and feasible, capable of producing their centralizing effects to precisely the degree that the proletariat, through its labor, multiplies the country’s productive forces.
Finally, when all capital, all production, all exchange have been brought together in the hands of the nation, private property will disappear of its own accord, money will become superfluous, and production will so expand and man so change that society will be able to slough off whatever of its old economic habits may remain.
— 20 —
What will be the consequences of the ultimate disappearance of private property?
Society will take all forces of production and means of commerce, as well as the exchange and distribution of products, out of the hands of private capitalists and will manage them in accordance with a plan based on the availability of resources and the needs of the whole society.
In this way, most important of all, the evil consequences which are now associated with the conduct of big industry will be abolished.
There will be no more crises; the expanded production, which for the present order of society is overproduction and hence a prevailing cause of misery, will then be insufficient and in need of being expanded much further.
Instead of generating misery, overproduction will reach beyond the elementary requirements of society to assure the satisfaction of the needs of all; it will create new needs and, at the same time, the means of satisfying them.
It will become the condition of, and the stimulus to, new progress, which will no longer throw the whole social order into confusion, as progress has always done in the past.
Big industry, freed from the pressure of private property, will undergo such an expansion that what we now see will seem as petty in comparison as manufacture seems when put beside the big industry of our own day.
This development of industry will make available to society a sufficient mass of products to satisfy the needs of everyone.
The same will be true of agriculture, which also suffers from the pressure of private property and is held back by the division of privately owned land into small parcels.
Here, existing improvements and scientific procedures will be put into practice, with a resulting leap forward which will assure to society all the products it needs.
In this way, such an abundance of goods will be able to satisfy the needs of all its members.
The division of society into different, mutually hostile classes will then become unnecessary.
Indeed, it will be not only unnecessary but intolerable in the new social order.
The existence of classes originated in the division of labor, and the division of labor, as it has been known up to the present, will completely disappear.
For mechanical and chemical processes are not enough to bring industrial and agricultural production up to the level we have described; the capacities of the men who make use of these processes must undergo a corresponding development.
Just as the peasants and manufacturing workers of the last century changed their whole way of life and became quite different people when they were drawn into big industry, in the same way, communal control over production by society as a whole, and the resulting new development, will both require an entirely different kind of human material.
People will no longer be, as they are today, subordinated to a single branch of production, bound to it, exploited by it; they will no longer develop one of their faculties at the expense of all others; they will no longer know only one branch, or one branch of a single branch, of production as a whole.
Even industry as it is today is finding such people less and less useful.
Industry controlled by society as a whole, and operated according to a plan, presupposes well-rounded human beings, their faculties developed in balanced fashion, able to see the system of production in its entirety.
The form of the division of labor which makes one a peasant, another a cobbler, a third a factory worker, a fourth a stock-market operator, has already been undermined by machinery and will completely disappear.
Education will enable young people quickly to familiarize themselves with the whole system of production and to pass from one branch of production to another in response to the needs of society or their own inclinations.
It will, therefore, free them from the one-sided character which the present-day division of labor impresses upon every individual.
Communist society will, in this way, make it possible for its members to put their comprehensively developed faculties to full use.
But, when this happens, classes will necessarily disappear.
It follows that society organized on a communist basis is incompatible with the existence of classes on the one hand, and that the very building of such a society provides the means of abolishing class differences on the other.
A corollary of this is that the difference between city and country is destined to disappear.
The management of agriculture and industry by the same people rather than by two different classes of people is, if only for purely material reasons, a necessary condition of communist association.
The dispersal of the agricultural population on the land, alongside the crowding of the industrial population into the great cities, is a condition which corresponds to an undeveloped state of both agriculture and industry and can already be felt as an obstacle to further development.
The general co-operation of all members of society for the purpose of planned exploitation of the forces of production, the expansion of production to the point where it will satisfy the needs of all, the abolition of a situation in which the needs of some are satisfied at the expense of the needs of others, the complete liquidation of classes and their conflicts, the rounded development of the capacities of all members of society through the elimination of the present division of labor, through industrial education, through engaging in varying activities, through the participation by all in the enjoyments produced by all, through the combination of city and country – these are the main consequences of the abolition of private property.
— 24 —
How do communists differ from socialists?
The so-called socialists are divided into three categories.
Democratic Socialists:
Finally, the third category consists of democratic socialists who favor some of the same measures the communists advocate, as described in Question 18, not as part of the transition to communism, however, but as measures which they believe will be sufficient to abolish the misery and evils of present-day society.
These democratic socialists are either proletarians who are not yet sufficiently clear about the conditions of the liberation of their class, or they are representatives of the petty bourgeoisie, a class which, prior to the achievement of democracy and the socialist measures to which it gives rise, has many interests in common with the proletariat.
It follows that, in moments of action, the communists will have to come to an understanding with these democratic socialists, and in general to follow as far as possible a common policy with them – provided that these socialists do not enter into the service of the ruling bourgeoisie and attack the communists.
— 25 —
What is the attitude of the communists to the other political parties of our time?
This attitude is different in the different countries.
In America, where a democratic constitution has already been established, the communists must make the common cause with the party which will turn this constitution against the bourgeoisie and use it in the interests of the proletariat – that is, with the agrarian National Reformers.
Against the governments, therefore, the communists must continually support the radical liberal party, taking care to avoid the self-deceptions of the bourgeoisie and not fall for the enticing promises of benefits which a victory for the bourgeoisie would allegedly bring to the proletariat.

And before we go further in here, it is important to have as background the catechism adhered to by Barack Obama which was passed down to Joe Biden as Obama’s anoited successor, which catechism guides the actions of the Democrats, and especially Democratic Socialist “running dog” Charley “Chuck” Schumer today, to wit:
Frederick Engels
The Principles of Communism
Written: October-November 1847
— 1 —
What is Communism?
Communism is the doctrine of the conditions of the liberation of the proletariat.
— 2 —
What is the proletariat?
The proletariat is that class in society which lives entirely from the sale of its labor and does not draw profit from any kind of capital; whose weal and woe, whose life and death, whose sole existence depends on the demand for labor – hence, on the changing state of business, on the vagaries of unbridled competition.
— 7 —
In what way do proletarians differ from slaves?
The slave is sold once and for all; the proletarian must sell himself daily and hourly.
The individual slave, property of one master, is assured an existence, however miserable it may be, because of the master’s interest.
The individual proletarian, property as it were of the entire bourgeois class which buys his labor only when someone has need of it, has no secure existence.
This existence is assured only to the class as a whole.
The slave is outside competition; the proletarian is in it and experiences all its vagaries.
The slave counts as a thing, not as a member of society.
Thus, the slave can have a better existence than the proletarian, while the proletarian belongs to a higher stage of social development and, himself, stands on a higher social level than the slave.
The slave frees himself when, of all the relations of private property, he abolishes only the relation of slavery and thereby becomes a proletarian; the proletarian can free himself only by abolishing private property in general.
— 14 —
What will this new social order have to be like?
Above all, it will have to take the control of industry and of all branches of production out of the hands of mutually competing individuals, and instead institute a system in which all these branches of production are operated by society as a whole – that is, for the common account, according to a common plan, and with the participation of all members of society.
It will, in other words, abolish competition and replace it with association.
Moreover, since the management of industry by individuals necessarily implies private property, and since competition is in reality merely the manner and form in which the control of industry by private property owners expresses itself, it follows that private property cannot be separated from competition and the individual management of industry.
Private property must, therefore, be abolished and in its place must come the common utilization of all instruments of production and the distribution of all products according to common agreement – in a word, what is called the communal ownership of goods.
In fact, the abolition of private property is, doubtless, the shortest and most significant way to characterize the revolution in the whole social order which has been made necessary by the development of industry – and for this reason it is rightly advanced by communists as their main demand.
— 18 —
What will be the course of this revolution?
Above all, it will establish a democratic constitution, and through this, the direct or indirect dominance of the proletariat.
Democracy would be wholly valueless to the proletariat if it were not immediately used as a means for putting through measures directed against private property and ensuring the livelihood of the proletariat.
The main measures, emerging as the necessary result of existing relations, are the following:
(i) Limitation of private property through progressive taxation, heavy inheritance taxes, abolition of inheritance through collateral lines (brothers, nephews, etc.) forced loans, etc.
(ii) Gradual expropriation of landowners, industrialists, railroad magnates and shipowners, partly through competition by state industry, partly directly through compensation in the form of bonds.
(iii) Confiscation of the possessions of all emigrants and rebels against the majority of the people.
(iv) Organization of labor or employment of proletarians on publicly owned land, in factories and workshops, with competition among the workers being abolished and with the factory owners, in so far as they still exist, being obliged to pay the same high wages as those paid by the state.
(v) An equal obligation on all members of society to work until such time as private property has been completely abolished.
Formation of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.
(vi) Centralization of money and credit in the hands of the state through a national bank with state capital, and the suppression of all private banks and bankers.
(vii) Increase in the number of national factories, workshops, railroads, ships; bringing new lands into cultivation and improvement of land already under cultivation – all in proportion to the growth of the capital and labor force at the disposal of the nation.
(viii) Education of all children, from the moment they can leave their mother’s care, in national establishments at national cost.
Education and production together.
(ix) Construction, on public lands, of great palaces as communal dwellings for associated groups of citizens engaged in both industry and agriculture and combining in their way of life the advantages of urban and rural conditions while avoiding the one-sidedness and drawbacks of each.
(x) Destruction of all unhealthy and jerry-built dwellings in urban districts.
(xi) Equal inheritance rights for children born in and out of wedlock.
(xii) Concentration of all means of transportation in the hands of the nation.
It is impossible, of course, to carry out all these measures at once.
But one will always bring others in its wake.
Once the first radical attack on private property has been launched, the proletariat will find itself forced to go ever further, to concentrate increasingly in the hands of the state all capital, all agriculture, all transport, all trade.
All the foregoing measures are directed to this end; and they will become practicable and feasible, capable of producing their centralizing effects to precisely the degree that the proletariat, through its labor, multiplies the country’s productive forces.
Finally, when all capital, all production, all exchange have been brought together in the hands of the nation, private property will disappear of its own accord, money will become superfluous, and production will so expand and man so change that society will be able to slough off whatever of its old economic habits may remain.
— 20 —
What will be the consequences of the ultimate disappearance of private property?
Society will take all forces of production and means of commerce, as well as the exchange and distribution of products, out of the hands of private capitalists and will manage them in accordance with a plan based on the availability of resources and the needs of the whole society.
In this way, most important of all, the evil consequences which are now associated with the conduct of big industry will be abolished.
There will be no more crises; the expanded production, which for the present order of society is overproduction and hence a prevailing cause of misery, will then be insufficient and in need of being expanded much further.
Instead of generating misery, overproduction will reach beyond the elementary requirements of society to assure the satisfaction of the needs of all; it will create new needs and, at the same time, the means of satisfying them.
It will become the condition of, and the stimulus to, new progress, which will no longer throw the whole social order into confusion, as progress has always done in the past.
Big industry, freed from the pressure of private property, will undergo such an expansion that what we now see will seem as petty in comparison as manufacture seems when put beside the big industry of our own day.
This development of industry will make available to society a sufficient mass of products to satisfy the needs of everyone.
The same will be true of agriculture, which also suffers from the pressure of private property and is held back by the division of privately owned land into small parcels.
Here, existing improvements and scientific procedures will be put into practice, with a resulting leap forward which will assure to society all the products it needs.
In this way, such an abundance of goods will be able to satisfy the needs of all its members.
The division of society into different, mutually hostile classes will then become unnecessary.
Indeed, it will be not only unnecessary but intolerable in the new social order.
The existence of classes originated in the division of labor, and the division of labor, as it has been known up to the present, will completely disappear.
For mechanical and chemical processes are not enough to bring industrial and agricultural production up to the level we have described; the capacities of the men who make use of these processes must undergo a corresponding development.
Just as the peasants and manufacturing workers of the last century changed their whole way of life and became quite different people when they were drawn into big industry, in the same way, communal control over production by society as a whole, and the resulting new development, will both require an entirely different kind of human material.
People will no longer be, as they are today, subordinated to a single branch of production, bound to it, exploited by it; they will no longer develop one of their faculties at the expense of all others; they will no longer know only one branch, or one branch of a single branch, of production as a whole.
Even industry as it is today is finding such people less and less useful.
Industry controlled by society as a whole, and operated according to a plan, presupposes well-rounded human beings, their faculties developed in balanced fashion, able to see the system of production in its entirety.
The form of the division of labor which makes one a peasant, another a cobbler, a third a factory worker, a fourth a stock-market operator, has already been undermined by machinery and will completely disappear.
Education will enable young people quickly to familiarize themselves with the whole system of production and to pass from one branch of production to another in response to the needs of society or their own inclinations.
It will, therefore, free them from the one-sided character which the present-day division of labor impresses upon every individual.
Communist society will, in this way, make it possible for its members to put their comprehensively developed faculties to full use.
But, when this happens, classes will necessarily disappear.
It follows that society organized on a communist basis is incompatible with the existence of classes on the one hand, and that the very building of such a society provides the means of abolishing class differences on the other.
A corollary of this is that the difference between city and country is destined to disappear.
The management of agriculture and industry by the same people rather than by two different classes of people is, if only for purely material reasons, a necessary condition of communist association.
The dispersal of the agricultural population on the land, alongside the crowding of the industrial population into the great cities, is a condition which corresponds to an undeveloped state of both agriculture and industry and can already be felt as an obstacle to further development.
The general co-operation of all members of society for the purpose of planned exploitation of the forces of production, the expansion of production to the point where it will satisfy the needs of all, the abolition of a situation in which the needs of some are satisfied at the expense of the needs of others, the complete liquidation of classes and their conflicts, the rounded development of the capacities of all members of society through the elimination of the present division of labor, through industrial education, through engaging in varying activities, through the participation by all in the enjoyments produced by all, through the combination of city and country – these are the main consequences of the abolition of private property.
— 24 —
How do communists differ from socialists?
The so-called socialists are divided into three categories.
Democratic Socialists:
Finally, the third category consists of democratic socialists who favor some of the same measures the communists advocate, as described in Question 18, not as part of the transition to communism, however, but as measures which they believe will be sufficient to abolish the misery and evils of present-day society.
These democratic socialists are either proletarians who are not yet sufficiently clear about the conditions of the liberation of their class, or they are representatives of the petty bourgeoisie, a class which, prior to the achievement of democracy and the socialist measures to which it gives rise, has many interests in common with the proletariat.
It follows that, in moments of action, the communists will have to come to an understanding with these democratic socialists, and in general to follow as far as possible a common policy with them – provided that these socialists do not enter into the service of the ruling bourgeoisie and attack the communists.
— 25 —
What is the attitude of the communists to the other political parties of our time?
This attitude is different in the different countries.
In America, where a democratic constitution has already been established, the communists must make the common cause with the party which will turn this constitution against the bourgeoisie and use it in the interests of the proletariat – that is, with the agrarian National Reformers.
Against the governments, therefore, the communists must continually support the radical liberal party, taking care to avoid the self-deceptions of the bourgeoisie and not fall for the enticing promises of benefits which a victory for the bourgeoisie would allegedly bring to the proletariat.

The Electors shall meet in their respective states and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as Vice-President, and they shall make distinct lists of all persons voted for as President, and of all persons voted for as Vice-President, and of the number of votes for each, which lists they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate;
The President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates and the votes shall then be counted;
The person having the greatest number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed; and if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President.
But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice.
And if the House of Representatives shall not choose a President whenever the right of choice shall devolve upon them, before the fourth day of March next following, then the Vice-President shall act as President, as in case of the death or other constitutional disability of the President.
The person having the greatest number of votes as Vice-President, shall be the Vice-President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed, and if no person have a majority, then from the two highest numbers on the list, the Senate shall choose the Vice-President; a quorum for the purpose shall consist of two-thirds of the whole number of Senators, and a majority of the whole number shall be necessary to a choice.
