Who Will Say “No More?”…10 September 2023

     *Who Will Say No More to the Current Madness?
     Victor Davis Hanson / August 14, 2023

     Britain slept in the 1930s as an inevitable war with Hitler
loomed.
     A lonely Winston Churchill had only a few courageous partners
to oppose the appeasement and incompetence of his conservative
colleague Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain.
     One of the most stalwart truth-tellers was a now little remem-
bered politico and public servant—Leo Amery, a polymath and conser-
vative member of Parliament.
     Yet in two iconic moments of outrage against the Chamberlain
government’s temporizing, Amery galvanized Britain and helped end
the government’s disastrous policies.
     In the hours after Hitler invaded Poland on Sept. 1, 1939,
there was real doubt whether Chamberlain would honor its treaty and
declare war on Germany.
     A Labour Party member, surrogate Arthur Greenwood, got up in
the House of Commons to announce that he would be speaking for
Labour on behalf of his ill party leader Clement Attlee.
     Immediately Amery interrupted, shouting out, “Speak for Eng-
land, Arthur!”
     He was met with overwhelming applause and soon public ac-
clamation.
     After all, Amery was a political voice in the wilderness warn-
ing that neither his own party nor the opposition Labour party was
speaking or acting for the real interest of the British people.
     Amery, a shocked Greenwood, and others had finally had enough
of the partisan nonsense, and demanded the nation unite against Nazi
Germany.
     Hours later, Britain declared war on Germany, the first major
power to do so.
     On a second iconic occasion on May 7, 1940, Amery voiced even
stronger views—again, widely held by the public, but rarely voiced
by the timid political class.
     The inept Chamberlain government had just lost a winnable
Norway campaign to Germany.
     Amery responded with a blistering attack on the incompetence
of the conservative Chamberlain administration by quoting Oliver
Cromwell’s hallmark 1653 order to the Long Parliament: “You have
sat too long here for any good you have been doing. Depart, I say,
and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go.”
     Three days later after Amery’s speech and the invasion of
France, an ill Chamberlain and most of his advisers resigned.
Churchill became prime minister. The rest is history.
     We need a voice like Amery’s. Like Britain from 1939 to 1940,
America is in existential danger.
     The Biden administration has utterly destroyed the southern
border—and immigration law with it.
     Biden green-lighted 7 million illegal aliens swarming into the
U.S. without legal sanction or rudimentary audit.
     China spies inside and over the U.S. with impunity. Beijing
has never admitted to its responsibility for the gain-of-function
COVID-19 virus that killed a million Americans.
     President Joe Biden printed $4 trillion at exactly the wrong
time of soaring post-COVID-19 consumer demand and supply shortages.
No wonder he birthed the worst inflation in 40 years.
     In response, interest rates tripled, gas prices doubled.
     Our military is thousands of recruits short. It lacks suffi-
cient munitions.
     Following Biden’s humiliating pullout from Afghanistan, vast
troves of arms were abandoned in Kabul. Billions more in scarce
weapons were sent to Ukraine.
     The Pentagon’s woke agenda trumps meritocracy in promotions
and advancement.
     Our enemies—Russia, China, Iran, North Korea—are on the move,
while the U.S. seems listless.
     The Biden renegade Department of Justice, CIA, and FBI have
become weaponized. Ideology, politics, and race—not the law—more
often guide their investigations, intelligence operations, and
enforcement.
     The downtowns of our once majestic major cities are becoming
unlivable.
     They are mired in refuse and trash, violent crime, and home-
lessness. Stores and businesses leave. Millions each year flee the
blue urban coasts to the red west and south.
     To even say there are still two biological genders, that glo-
bal warming may not be entirely man-made or necessarily destroying
the planet, or that class, not race, is the proper barometer of
inequality is to face ostracism and career cancellation.
     The public assumes that Biden is severely cognitively chal-
lenged, likely corrupt, and a serial fabricator.
     Most know what must be done, but few will tell the truth:
Balance the budget. Return to legal only immigration. Restore a
well-funded, but unwoke Pentagon.
     Insist on racial unity. Curb the overweening administrative
state. Enforce the rule of law.
     Produce more gas and oil. Reestablish civic education. Insist
universities protect free speech and due process—and stop prosely-
tizing.
     In other words, restore what until recently made America the
strongest, most prosperous, and freest nation in the world. And
quit undoing all the great good that eight generations of prior
Americans bequeathed to us.
     Somewhere out there an American Leo Amery is growing infur-
iated over what is being done to America.
     And if he finally stands up like Amery to call out our bank-
rupt political class, the American people will echo his famous
order to this disastrous government:
     “Depart, I say, and let us have done with you. In the name
of God, go.”*

     Imagine what America could have done with the billions of
dollars they wasted trying to keep the American people from 
learning the truth about the unelected mob that is destroying
the US from within.
     Then there is the hundreds of millions they have wasted in
an effort to keep Trump from exposing their efforts to turn the
nation into a socialist/communist nation while the liberal Left
and corrupt media hide the truth from us all.
     We are on the verge of total destruction because they feed
the people misinformation, lies, and use their corrupt Justice
Dept. to attack the Constitution and anyone who they don't
agree with.
     God is awesome but maybe he needs our help to take back
our country and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.

  Conservatively,
  John
