The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines a “Politburo” as: “the principal policy making and executive committee of a Communist party.” Unfortunately, and quite alarmingly, there is a “politburo” operating from the shadows here in the United States which may soon have complete control of our nation.
I was recently discussing Vice President Kamala Harris with a highly influential Democratic Operative. This person flat-out stated: “She is incapable of making any decision on her own. She needs to be told what her ‘opinion’ is via committee.”
And there you have it. As Iran threatens to attack Israel; as the Ukraine-Russian war grows closer to triggering a nuclear strike; as a recession is about to ravage our economy; as millions of illegal immigrants and thousands of terrorists flood across our southern border; and as crime increasingly plagues our streets, the “Politburo” behind Harris is salivating at the thought that she will be elected president and they will have outright control of her and…our country.
Harkening back to the days of the former Soviet Union, we have Harris being installed as the Democratic nominee for president by Democrat DC swamp creatures behind the scenes. One day Biden declares that he will not get out of the race and the very next day, he is gone and airbrushed from relevance.
As former President Trump has repeatedly asked: Who is truly running the White House? Who is truly running the Democratic Party? Who stands to profit from this shocking and un-American power grab?
Most importantly, who from the shadowy “Politburo” is behind the curtain telling Kamala Harris what to do; what to say; where to go; and who to pick as her running mate? Who told her to pick Walz? Who told her to bend to the “Woke” left and not pick Shapiro? Who comprises the “Politburo” behind Harris?
As we witness the world economy begin to tank, many wonder if it is because of fears of a Harris presidency. To that point, we have this post from Senator Tom Cotton: “Vice President Harris must immediately —without a script — explain her economic policies. If she can’t answer a single question, she can’t handle the job.”
And regarding the disastrous effect even a hint of a Harris presidency might have on the world markets, former President Trump posted a quote from Howard Lutnick, the chairman of Cantor Fitzgerald:
“Japan down 12%, India down 6%. Germany way down also. U.S. really bad. This is a preview of the world markets without Donald J. Trump in the White House…She’ll destroy the markets. She’s in power now and look at what is happening. One week of fake media saying better polls and you get a market crash.”
Economies and world banks are often affected by political perception. Former President Trump, Senator Cotton, and Lutnick are correct to point out that the very thought of a Harris presidency terrifies many of these bankers and institutions.
To Senator Cotton’s crucial point, will we hear from Kamala Harris unscripted on this subject or any other? Not a chance.
As we have repeatedly witnessed, if she does not have a teleprompter to tell her what to say – filled with a narrative from the shadowy “Politburo” behind her – she literally can’t get out a coherent sentence. Biden had “cognitive decline” as his excuse. What is hers?
It has been a few weeks since she was installed as the nominee, and she has yet to have an unscripted interview from the media. That would be the same media which is fawning all over her as it tries to memory-hole every one of her past – mostly off teleprompter – positions which are currently wreaking havoc upon our nation.
To be sure, not only is the liberal mainstream media a subgroup of the “Politburo” controlling Harris, but so is the rest of what I call “the five major megaphones of our nation.” Those being: the media, academia, entertainment, science, and medicine. All over the last several years and decades have been taken over by forces from the left. All now willing to do anything in their power to install Harris as president so a committee – of which they will be included – can control her and institute draconian policy upon the land.
In 2020, Joe Biden fled to his basement to hide from the American people; cover for his cognitive decline; and refuse to answer critically important questions. In 2024, the “Politburo” behind Harris – along with the co-conspirators from the five megaphones – are erecting an Iron Curtain around her.
If they succeed, Washington, DC and much of our nation could evolve into the worst of Soviet controlled East Germany in the blink of an eye. It will be “Madame Teleprompter” out front, but it will be an unelected shadowy “Politburo” pulling the strings.
