Our Future as the Democrats Reveal It to Us
Three news items yesterday provide an indication of where the New Democrats will be taking us.
One comes from Democrat Texas Governor-elect Gina Hinojosa. She is readying an emergency freezing of electricity rates to protect Texans facing surging utility bills resulting from the construction of data centers. Clearly, prior to the construction of the data centers the electricity output in the impacted communities should have been beefed up so that the costs of the data centers were not imposed on individual homeowners through higher rates, especially when the Republican’ war for Greater Israel had curtailed energy flows from the Middle East. Capitalism is not supposed to work by imposing the cost of its investments on third parties who are not beneficiaries of the profits. In Texas in recent years electricity bills have risen 40% but incomes have not.
There is no doubt that Governor-elect Hinojosa is correct that homeowners and those renting their residences should not have to pay for the construction of data centers. The question is: Is her solution a solution?
If price cannot ration, due to it being fixed, how is a shortage of electricity to be rationed? The answer is by reducing its availability. Some times power will be available, other times not. Can data centers operate on an on-and-off basis? Can they fill in the time gaps with generators? If not, then temporary shutdowns prevent their operation, or will the shutdowns be restricted to households? Govenor-elect Hinojosa and her advisers need to understand that it is not costless for power companies to produce power and they cannot produce more power than their capacity will allow.
I am not opposed to Governor-elect Hinojosa’a concern. Her mistake is to impose the correction on the power companies instead of the data centers. Perhaps a more realistic solution for Governor-elect Hinojosa would be to establish a moratorium on the construction of data centers until infusion of investment funds into power supply can support the data center demand without forcing up people’s electricity bills. If construction of data centers is an emergency, the Govenor-elect could consider requiring the data centers to compensate people’s electric bills for the rising cost of electricity due to the data centers.
Opposition to Hinojosa’s intervention in markets is off on the wrong foot. Critics are saying that she cannot impose a price control policy without legislative support. But George W. Bush, Obama, and Donald Trump have already done that. Trump imposed tariffs without Congressional consent, and the George W. Bush and Obama regimes used targeted price ceilings, price floors, and rate regulations within specific sectors such as energy, finance, healthcare, and labor. Hinojosa has plenty of precedents for bad policy.
The problem Hinojosa needs to avoid is descrediting the New Democrats’ program before it gets off the ground. Indeed, it is in the interests of traditional America that she does discredit it as the New Democrats are committed to revolutionizing American society and institutions, not to reforming them as progressive Democrats historically have done.

A second news item comes from James O’Keefe. Americans who pay attention and try to be aware know O’Keefe as the investigator who puts microphones in front of America’s enemies and records their confessions.
Recently he did this in Minnesota when he documented that a registered voter can vouch for as many of eight people who are thereby given the right to vote without ID or even state of residence proof. Clearly, this is a method or voting illegal aliens.
For bringing this fact to the American people O’Keefe has been criminally indicted by corrupt Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriaty. There is no case against O’Keefe, which Mary Moriaty admits, but O’Keefe is nevertheless indicted because his defense will exhaust his resources. https://secure.anedot.com/liberty-guard/lg-omg-mn-charges-1-mb-bm?utm_source=lg-omg-mn-charges-1&utm_medium=bm&utm_campaign=mb&amount=35&utm_term=jsr
Recently an assistant prosecutor in New York State explained to the Israel Lobby that it was possible for a state prosecutor to destroy an enemy without ever going in front of a judge. All that is necessary he said, is to destroy the target with endless subpoenas and demand for information, leak made-up facts to the imbecile whore media, and you have ruined your enemy without ever having to go before a judge. This is what is going to happen to Republicans post-Trump and to Trump himself. It has already happened to the immigration website Vdare, to Trump supporters who brought forward unequivocal evidence of the stolen 2020 presidential election, and to imprison 1,500 Trump supporters as “insurrectionists.” As Republican Senator Ron Johnson realizes, Democrats intend to use lawfare to destroy the Republican Party. Trump by serving as warlord for Netanyahu has given Democrats the opportunity.
The numbers of imprisoned traditional Americans are going to rise exponentially in coming years.
A third news item indicating freedom’s death in America is the report that the New Democrats will use AI to create a surveillance state and institutionalize in a federal cabinet department AI power to monitor and censure all opposition to official narratives. I have said from the beginning of the digital revolution that the purpose of the digital revolution was not the entertainment of the insouciant Americans but their imprisonment.
Weak-willed and weak-minded Americans so obliging of their enemies are going to experience the Democrats removing Constitutional restraints on the government’s use of power. When there is no unity, consent is replaced by force. There is no unity in a multicultural state because there are no common mores. The New Democrats have no interest in maintaining unity through compromise. They will be acting from revolutionary intent.
