Yesterday's main headline on the Drudge Report was about January 6, 2021, and the right-wing "insurrection."  You know, the one where the so-called insurrectionists didn't have any guns.  Drudge claims that Americans fear a repeat.  Really?  That's news to me.  (Incidentally, I agree with the rumor that Drudge sold his Drudge Report for millions but still allows the leftist new owners to use his name.)

I work for a multinational Fortune 100 company.  I go to country taverns out in the sticks — because that's where I'm from.  My life is full of diversity, yet I haven't seen any Americans cowering in the corners of rustic bars or fancy offices, fearing another "insurrection" in which the only folks who were killed were unarmed conservatives.

Since when is marching through a public building without weapons an insurrection?  Don't believe everything the rancid media shove down your throat!  (How come when leftist groups commandeer police stations, this is not called an insurrection?)

What Americans fear, Matt Drudge, is an American military being subversively weakened by design to accept defeat when the real enemy comes knocking.  (Hint: The real enemy is not Russia, Russia, Russia!)

Americans fear being victims of violent crime, economic depression, and endless lockdowns.

Americans fear empty supermarket shelves.

Americans fear a system that allows politicians to conduct insider trading with impunity.

Americans fear more and more manufacturing concerns being shipped overseas and the resulting unemployment in America.  (I recall President Dubya assuring us that we do not need manufacturing; we can thrive by simply providing services.  Can you believe he has an MBA?  I can't.)

Americans fear a government that gives away "free money" so that people are motivated not to work.

Americans fear rotten "alphabet soup" entities: the FBI, CIA, and CCP.

Americans fear being used as cannon fodder in unnecessary and endless wars that do not benefit us in any way — but instead benefit the elite.

This, Matt Drudge, is what Americans fear.
