Drop the masks and speak truthfully to Americans

An appeal to the powers that be: Why don’t you come out of hiding and proclaim loudly and proudly to all of America who you are and what exactly you stand for?

Since October 7, evil has lurked behind a veil. But perhaps it’s time for the veil to lift.

Hamas has regularly been spewing falsehoods about the IDF’s meticulous advances to free the hostages, in order to hide the truth, while the terrorists have taken to hiding beneath mosques, hospitals, and schools to fool their pursuers and escape the pain of a war they began. Meanwhile, their chiefs of operations have been hiding in Qatar hotels to escape the fighting and the retribution of justice.

Iran is the prime mover behind practically all of the terrorist activities plaguing the Middle East. Iran furnished the more than 10,000 rockets Hezbollah has launched into Israel. Iran has paid for the more than 100 strikes on U.S. installations around the region. The two dozen attacks on shipping interests in the Red Sea? The terrorist state of Iran is behind those, too.

Iran has kept itself hidden behind proxies to escape direct blame for everything that has occurred. The Iranian regime are master deceivers who, in Shakespeare’s words, “mock the time with fairest show/false face must hide what the false heart doth know.”

The ayatollahs have masqueraded themselves for the sake of the diplomacy that keeps all their financing options open to those who might be inclined to more appeasement while ferociously directing their proxies to ever greater acts of terror — but always from behind a veil.

Then, in a shocking revelation, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei emerged two weeks ago to take some credit for the actions of Hamas, claiming the October 7 massacre was retaliation for the death of terrorist chief strategist Qasem Soleimani. How relieving it is to receive a simple truth in a very confused world!

Perhaps we can find some truth right here at home if we ask for it. May we ask our leading “educators” whether their DEI initiatives are really just a veil, a masque, hiding the real intent of this “education,” which is to destroy Judeo-Christian traditions in America, to destroy America’s heritage in Western civilization, and ultimately to crack the foundations of our Constitution?

It sounds so nice. “Diversity, equity, and inclusion” doesn’t sound or appear to be a battering ram that is being taken to American history and American institutions, does it? How about we ask our educators directly: What are you teaching? And why? Are Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle not good enough for you? Are you wiser than Socrates?

Let’s pursue some truth from the Democrats in the House and Senate. Why are they not asked directly: Do you believe in the right of Israel to exist? Do you believe Jewish people in America have a right to an equal education based on their merit, not on their religion? Can we ask Senator Chuck Schumer, the quintessential quisling, these questions? How about we ask him every time he goes begging for money from his Jewish constituency? Come on out, Chuck!

We might further ask of Democrats: Do you believe in the United States Constitution? If so, why do you not act in accordance with it? Why do you not call out fellow Democrats who do not?

Do you believe in socialism or free enterprise?

Do you believe it is the right of administrative agencies to attack Americans who peacefully oppose Democratic Party policies?

Do you believe the Department of Education and the teachers’ unions should control the content of every American’s education, from kindergarten through the university?

Do you believe in free and fair elections, as constitutionally mandated, to be controlled by state legislatures? Do you believe Republicans have a right to observe the vote in inner-city neighborhoods and verify identifications?

The careerists in the Democratic Party, within the administrative state, and at their universities proclaim proudly that they are the first to “speak truth to power,” but these are the people in power.

Why don’t we ask the powerful to make a collective New Year’s resolution and be the powers that speak? Why don’t you come out of hiding, drop the masks, and proclaim loudly and proudly to all of America who you are and what you stand for exactly?

That is the essence of the essential truth necessary in a constitutional republic.

Perhaps they cannot stand up and admit they are socialists because socialism hasn’t got a leg to stand on with American voters. Socialism has to be held up by the seized property, earnings, and miseries of every poor slave who is subject to its tyranny.

Let’s request one more mask to drop in honor of the new year! Who has been behind the administrative state attacks on conservatives since at least 2008, such as those by the IRS, the Department of Health and Human Services, and the Environmental Protection Agency?

Who is behind the politicization of the FBI, the CIA, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, and every other federal law enforcement agency?

Who has persecuted Donald Trump since he began to run for office? Who persecuted Trump during the years he was in office?

And when it comes to more recent events, who is really responsible for the wide-open southern border and our appeasement policy with Iran?

Cannot he, like they, finally drop the mask and take some credit? Oh! He’s busy collecting an Emmy.
