from the article... to me this is the real and most important question to ask... *Editor’s note: This is a lightly edited transcript of today’s video from Daily Signal Senior Contributor Victor Davis Hanson. [Subscribe to our YouTube channel to see more of his videos.](https://www.youtube.com/@DailySignal?sub_confirmation=1)* Hello, this is Victor Davis Hanson for The Daily Signal. I’d like to do something a little different in this video, and that is to ask an existential question: Why? Let’s look at the border. [President Joe Biden](Joe Biden - The Daily Signal) over four years destroyed it. He defanged [Border Patrol](Border Patrol - The Daily Signal) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement. He stopped the congressionally approved wall. The result was 12 million people came in. They entered illegally. They resided illegally. And we have 500,000 of them suspected of criminal backgrounds. And almost every day there is a murder/rape. But here’s the question. Everybody knows he did it but nobody asked why did he do it? Why did you do the most nihilistic thing in the history of the modern presidency? I think we’re gonna live with this problem for 50 years. But why did he do it? Why did he say, “You can come in without a COVID-19 vaccination but we are gonna get rid of 8,500 of our U.S. citizens in the military who don’t want to be vaccinated”? Why did he say that you need a Real ID but you don’t if you’re in illegally? Why? Was it that he wanted new constituents because the agenda didn’t appeal to 51% of the population? Did he think that under early and mail-in voting protocols inaugurated in 2020 that he was gonna be able to have these people vote very quickly? Did he want to grow government and then have a bigger entitlement? Higher taxes? Did he not believe in borders? Was he a globalist? It was so nihilistic. It was so destructive that we need to know why. Just tell us why you did it. Was it just because you hated half the country and you wanted to destroy it? You hated MAGA? The garbage, semi-fascists? Is that it? The same existential is why do all these reporters say now, “We were in on the deal, we covered up for Biden”? “The Biden staff did it.” “No, the media did it.” But they all agreed that he was non compos mentis. He was cognitively challenged when he was nominated, when they cleared the nomination field out. They got rid of Pete Buttigeig. They got rid of Sen. Elizabeth Warren. They got rid of [Sen. Bernie Sanders](Bernie Sanders - The Daily Signal). They all disappeared quickly. And then they used this waxen effigy as a veneer. But why? That was very risky to do that. They all tell us they did it, but they don’t tell us why. Was the idea that good old Joe Biden from Scranton had some conservative remnant vestigial aura about him? And then they could use him and they could tell Jill, Joe, “You get to be president but we’re gonna run it.” Or was it even worse than that? They thought, “This is what we’ve always been waiting for. This is what [Barack Obama](Barack Obama - The Daily Signal) said when he wanted a third term and he could phone in a left-wing agenda from his basement without appearing in public.” In other words, it wasn’t that they were stuck. They saw this as a wonderful opportunity. Use Joe Biden and just have him come in three days a week, stumble through stuff, and then push through the most left-wing, nihilistic, destructive, socialist agenda in history. more here...

and then there is this... least we forget and think it's all over with... Democrats Revise, Extend Their Remarks About Biden's Fitness
and then there is this kinda thing... so maybe we need to also ask WHO is doing this??? WHO is twisting the laws meant to protect into ways to destroy??? Virginia Realtor Faces Backlash for Bible Post
Reference the border, I think this is a great question, why in the world would they do this and continue to do it, lie for 4-years about it and know they were going to get caught, basically ruining their party's chances in the future. The ONLY answer I can come up with is someone or something, probably an organization (a state government?) are playing the long game, knowing the uncontrolled illegal immigration will have horrible effects on the most powerful nation in the world. A nation that is so powerful and secure, militarily and financially, that it is impossible to take down except from within. I come up with only one, maybe two, suspects and when you connect all the other dots, like the funding and organization for all this chaos in the past years and certainly its secrecy - well - that narrows it down a lot. I believe the major players of the Democratic party are involved deeply with China and have been for years. This was just too well played and planned to be anything else... Why Biden? He is totally and completely corrupt, no morals, no ethics, no conscious. Perfect! Plus, he is also at the end of his life cycle - meaning - politically, physically and certainly mentally. The perfect choice. I would bet he has been in China's pocket for years. Think about it. Why support Ukraine but only drip feed them enough to keep them from losing but can't win? They wanted a long and lasting war. First, it allowed huge amounts of money to disappear and/or be laundered. Second, it weakens China's competition, Russia, without having to compete while at the same time strengthening China economically and driving a wedge between Russia and the West. Win, win and win again! There might be other countries involved but I would bet China is the main player. So, yeah, tinfoil hat time, but I think it was a long-term operation which was extremely successful. Nothing else makes sense to me.
I grew up hearing it, but it was just a cutesy phrase, it wasn't until very late in life I began to grasp the true thrust. "Give 'em hell". It's what you ought to be striving for when you are in a war. Kill the enemy is a means but not the only means to win... make him want to stop fighting. DEFEAT him, not just block or steal from him but take away his will to fight. THAT IS WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO AMERICA, THEIR ENEMY.
