Check Out Adam Schiff's 'Democracy' Plan to Destroy Our Constitutional Republic
There are a lot of reasons not to vote for Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Ca) for Senate, not the least of which is how he has consistently tried to lie to the American people when it came to the Russian collusion hoax, claiming he had "evidence" he never managed to produce.
But he just offered up another reason why he should be defeated: his "pro-democracy" plan.
So what is in this "Defending Democracy" plan?
California Senate candidate and Congressmember Adam Schiff is calling for a major overhaul of American institutions, including getting rid of the Electoral College, expanding the Supreme Court and eliminating the filibuster. [....]
Other elements of Schiff’s proposal include:
— Eliminating gerrymandered congressional districts
— Making voting easier by designating Election Day a federal holiday, expanding automatic voter registration through government agencies like the Department of Motor Vehicles and universal vote-by-mail access
— Restoring voting rights to felons who have served their time
— Reforming the judiciary by instituting term limits for Supreme Court justices, creating an enforceable ethics code and banning stock trading for judges
It is definitely a pro-"pure democracy," i.e. mob rule. An overhaul of American institutions? It would take a sledgehammer to our Constitutional Republic and what the Founders intended. The very reason we have an Electoral College is to make sure we are not controlled by the states that might have huge populations, like California and New York. We have a Supreme Court that is supposed to be independent and not neutered by the politicians, yet he wants to destroy that as well because it's the one thing that the Democrats don't think they can control at this point.
Schiff's "Defending Democracy" isn't about defending the Constitution, it's about increasing Democratic control and undermining our institutions.
This is the plan. This is how the Democrats want to turn our county away from its intent. The basis of the country is built on individual rights, the rule of law, and the Constitution. It's not built on the tyranny of the majority. It was to limit the power of the government and its intrusions into the lives of Americans, not to rip away all those protections.
Even the filibuster is about protecting the rights of the minority in the Senate, but he wants to do away with that as well. Anything that inhibits their power.
“If we’re going to make significant reforms to protect a democracy, we’re going to have to get rid of the filibuster,” Schiff said. “And I would trade wild swings in policy because the majority in the Senate can actually get things passed over the democracy-defeating stalemate that we have with the filibuster.”
There he tells on himself again, the tyranny of the majority.
But that will come back to bite them when the GOP takes over the Senate, which is very likely in this next election.
We're suddenly seeing this everywhere, as Joe Biden and the Democrats don't have a lot to run on, so they're making up this "threat to democracy" from the right. But the real threat is to our Constitutional Republic -- from the Democrats who wouldn't even acknowledge or seem to want to do in our institutions and our Constitution.
