Quietly they have taken control of our schools and the judicial and now that it's threatened they are throwing off the cloak and coming out as full blown Marxist/socialists.

It always drove me to distraction how the democrats claim bipartisanship only if republicans agree to their terms. "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. it must be fought for, protected and handed on for them to do the same."



You got that right, they will go to the extremes to save the movement. The collateral damage will be considered a necessary result to accomplish the goals.
