To the Editor:
Unity and loyalty are important for the success of any organization. This is certainly true for political parties. Party discipline is often cited in view of this need. So it is puzzling when humble low level party members are faithful in supporting statewide office holders who differ on many issues but then are forced to watch those same leaders openly oppose national leaders of their same party.
Why would this ever happen? What makes trusted party leaders abandon the aspirations of their own party members and the stated positions of their party? Enter the Uni-party! The Uni-party is all the people from both main parties who support the “fundamental transformation” of the USA into a socialist and Marxist nation. They are motivated by a true affinity for socialist dogma, and/or the thirst for power and/or simple monetary support. Even if they are not doctrinaire leftists they can be purchased and intimidated or blackmailed by leftists.
A quick way to identify Uni-party members in any guise is to hear their take on the 1/6/2021 events in DC. If they call this an “insurrection” you are listening to a Uni-Party person. The unarmed 400,000+ citizens of January 6 were voluntarily gathered to protest a highly defective election. The people were simply exercising their 1st Amendment right to “peaceably assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” The Uni-party wants to discredit the patriots of that day because these are the people who can and are now exposing and correcting the corruption of America. After 100+ years of being misled there is a real chance that the citizens of the USA will make 2024 the high water mark of our enemies effort to replace our constitutional republic with a Communist state. Those involved need to double down and bring many others into this effort.
Another identifier of the Uni-party is blind allegiance to the narrative of “Climate Change” or global warming or whatever the latest designation happens to be. This agenda is based on one core lie- there is too much CO2 and humans are responsible for this. The 0.04% CO2 in the air is a trace amount that cannot possibly control temperature. But this lie is perpetrated relentlessly by the Uni-party as part of an effort to destroy the economies of the western world.
At times the left has seemed invincible in their project to infiltrate and dominate every institution in America. The recent election, however, gives many of us hope that the principles and values of Americanism can still be restored and strengthened!
This situation reminds me of George Washington and his recognition of the “Invisible Hand” that watched over our country. That is the Hand of God which has protected and rescued the USA many times! This Hand has protected President Trump from vicious lawfare and even assassination attempts. May this Providence continue to guide us and inspire us in the days and years to come!

An interesting double standard?
In light of the recent terrorist attack in New Orleans, where the assailant used a vehicle as a weapon, I wonder why there are no calls against car violence or political efforts to ban them.
Many people on the Left argue that guns are the cause of violence, suggesting that the weapon itself is responsible. However, why are drivers and vehicles not held to the same standard? After all, did not the vehicle play a crucial role in the deaths of innocent victims on the streets? Did it not enable the tragic outcome?
Further, very few unintentional gun-related deaths occur; sometimes, while cleaning, mistakes happen, or a gun that was thought to be empty is fired with fatality resulting. But by definition, car accidents tend to be…well, accidents. Tens of thousands of people each year across America die from car accidents, and millions more are injured, while guns need a disgruntled individual behind them.
According to the World Health Organization, 1.19 million people across the world die each year in car accidents, and millions more are injured—over four times the total of those who die from gunshot, whether by homicide or suicide.
Why is there not a widespread outcry to end car violence? Cars and fast travel are ingrained in the economy, and politicians on both sides rely on the said economy for taxation to fund their programs. Guns? Authorities have many reasons for desiring a population that cannot resist its ruler or protect itself from them. If people are less able to protect themselves from criminalviolence, they are more docile when it comes to doing what their only protector the government desires, perhaps to take a vaccination.
But it is safe to say the inconsistency will continue because the issue is not the guns but control. And the death in car accidents of a small percentage of the population is a tiny sacrifice to keep the economy they depend on going.

Why do people keep crossing over the center line of the road and causing more accidents???????
An excellent metaphor!
The Wheelers rock. Thanks for that great letter and all that you do for conservatism,
and spreading the word of God. By the way, I’m betting that VT Digger is just itching to publish your letter to the editor too. Am I right?
I agree 1,000% with both authors. May 2025 be the start of righting this ship, and the Left getting what they so richly deserve.
Great letters. Part of the liberal disconnect in the comparison of guns vs cars is that they fail to acknowledge that firearms have any legitimate, positive purpose in a free society. Through leftist policy in the post-George Floyd era, violent crime has exploded, and fortunately more people are seeing the benefit of having a simple, low-tech tool for defense of self and loved ones that can be deployed from a safe distance. Second Amendment rights are as much of what makes America great as are the free expression rights embodied in the First Amendment and those are having a big comeback after recent leftist suppression. MAGA!
In recent history the United States Government has conducted:
“Past examples of unethical experiments include the exposure of humans to chemical and biological weapons (including infections with deadly or debilitating diseases), human radiation experiments, injections of toxic and radioactive chemicals, surgical experiments, interrogation and torture experiments, tests which involve mind-altering substances, and a wide variety of other experiments. Many of these tests are performed on children, the sick, and mentally disabled individuals, often under the guise of “medical treatment”.” -Wiki
This is only what we know of. It’s obviously much worse.
Why do people continue to forgive and forget with government? The government has PROVEN that it does unthinkable disgusting things to us over and over again without a single person being arrested or even reprimanded. They have proven over and over that they don’t care if we are dead! Why would ANYONE advocate for them to do ANYTHING ever, even if it was only this one small example above?
It doesn’t matter if you believe the humans are causing global warming with naturally occurring life sustaining gasses or not, the GOVERNMENT is not the solution to these issues. The government exacerbates these issues, and has a 100% proven track record of failure. The government is the number one polluter on the planet. Government regulation and wealth destruction prevent advancements in energy that people who care about “being green” could otherwise afford for themselves.
Don’t think the government doesn’t want to take your cars. They have already slipped through many laws that have made ALL new cars full scale spy devices with remote control capabilities. The CIA WILL work with terrorist organizations to exploit these government mandated vulnerabilities, and many people will die. You WILL give up your car, and you already have. The people of a free nation should have never given government any authority to decide how we choose to travel in the first place. Yet, NO ONE CARES!
The government doesn’t have the ~legitimate~ authority to do any of the things it does, but yet the “legitimizers” will do what they do. The boot licking will continue. The “middle-ground” will continue. The “for safety” will continue. The “it’s reasonable” will continue. The “common sense” will continue. This evil will take what you give it, democrat or republican. The government is a reflection of its people, and it’s really looking like we are a bad people who will never evolve away from government.
God bless, stay safe.
Love it. My question has been, between, Montpelier and D.C. which one is sodom and which is Gomorra ?
There is a much better way, I know you know. 🙂 Love your posts. Fear not, fear not, he’s already won.
Dear Ed and Anne, well said, well said. So Yuri Bezmanov who was trained in the art of subversion, which is the military action of over throwing a country, from the inside out, without firing a shot, completely agrees with your commentary, as a nation we need to change direction, to repent. It’s really interesting how everything leads to one person. Elon musk is searching for the truth, he’s getting warmer, but man going to mars is not the answer. Your sin will find you out, no matter where you go, you’ll still be there. The only way for us to change, to have peace, is it to allow the King of Peace to take over our hearts and minds, to give up the wheel and let Jesus guide us through the Holy Spirit.
This is why they abhor Jesus, why they are trying to create division and hatred, they are following their father’s foot steps, and he ain’t Jesus, for sure!
GREAT POST! TGBTG
You can tell a uniparty member by their fruit, they hate their neighbor because………they thrive off division, hatred, power and money.
Dear Lord, ask that you fill your people with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, meekness and self control, there are no laws against these. I ask in your name Jesus Christ.
If you go back and look at the ceremony for the treaty which gave the Panama Canal away by Jimmy Carter for one dollar you will see all the Uni-Party members sitting there supporting that move. There were a ton of Republican Uni-Party that were accomplices to that stupidity.
