A deadly and documented trap set in motion over sixty years ago is close to snapping shut. If Trump and Vance do not win the next election, we could soon wake up in a Marxist/Socialist/Communist-controlled country with severe shortages of freedom and necessities.
Why might the coming election be part of a Black Swan change? Because the process is already happening. In the last few years, Marxist leaders have devalued our money, diminished our resources, strangled free speech, and triggered a destructive avalanche. Are they going to “build back better” as promised? No, they are doubling down, and things are getting worse because it’s all part of the sixty-year-old Cultural Marxist trap.
While many people are debating lesser issues, voters or charlatans will soon decide if the USA is going to continue being a constitutional republic or if it is going to become a communist hellhole. We will soon enjoy increased freedom and prosperity, or we will lose our liberty and productivity to a distinctly socialist/Marxist/collectivist movement.
Like many of the radical left, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz do not claim to be socialist, Marxist, or Communist. However, they have certainly been influenced by communists and each has a history of talking, acting, and voting like one. As The Duck Test idiom says, “If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it’s probably a duck.” This much we know for sure: Current ruling radicals, are following communist principles and tactics and are willing to lie, cheat, and kill to get and maintain power.
In the 2024 election, we are facing an easy and obvious choice between the freedom and prosperity of a Trump/Vance administration and the ethical and economic nightmare of a “Make American Burn Again” Harris/Walz administration. The writing is on the wall. We will quickly return to the life, liberty, and happiness of a constitutional republic or we will accelerate into the already-burning socialist/communist/globalist dumpster fire.
To help avoid disaster, Dr. Ben Carson recently directed attention to the book “The Naked Communist” which revealed the Marxist plan to usurp America that started more than 60 years ago. (Ben Carson Video at 4:16)
“Carson mentioned that this plan involves ‘driving wedges between us on the basis of race, income, age, gender, political affiliation, religion, you name it, as part of an effort to make people view each other as ‘enemies…If our system is going to be fixed, it is going to be we the people,’ he added, encouraging those assembled to ‘be courageous’ and ‘vote the right way.'” (Ben Carson Article)
The Naked Communist was published in 1958. The author, Cleon Skousen, was a former FBI agent and constitutional scholar. The book quickly became a global bestseller and was ostensibly utilized by the CIA, FBI, and White House. World leaders sought Skousen’s advice concerning the dangers and methods of communist infiltration and he lectured in every state and in over 60 countries.
Concerning Cleon Skousen and his book, Ronald Reagan said: “No one is better qualified to discuss the threat to this nation from communism. You will be alarmed, you will be informed.” Recently, Dr. Ben Carson said, “The Naked Communist lays out the whole progressive plan. It is unbelievable how fast it has been achieved.”
On January 10, 1963, Congressman Albert Herlong entered a list of 45 communist goals (derived from The Naked Communist) into the congressional record. Most of those 45 goals have been accomplished. Let’s review some of the most disturbing goals and how they relate to current circumstances.
Communist Goal 15: Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States. DONE. The democrat party has embraced most of the communist agenda.
Communist Goal 17: Get control of the schools. Use them to transmit socialist propaganda. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks. This goal is mostly DONE, as verified here.
Communist Goals 20 and 21: Infiltrate and gain control of the press and media. Mostly DONE. Over 85% of the press leans to the left.
Communist Goals 25 and 26: Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, and TV. Present degeneracy, promiscuity, and homosexuality as “normal, natural, healthy.” DONE.
Communist Goals 29 and 30: Discredit the Constitution and founding fathers as being inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, [and racist]. DONE.
Communist Goal 31: Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history. DONE.
Communist Goals 33 and 38: Eliminate laws and law enforcement procedures transferring police power to social agencies (i.e. defund the police, etc.). In process.
Communist Goals 40 and 41: Discredit the family as an institution and emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. In process.
Communist Goal 42: Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate means of solving economic, political, or social problems. DONE, as verified by democratic support of Antifa and Black Lives Matter.
When Skousen first published the list of 45 communist goals, more than 60 years ago, there were some who scoffed saying he was a fanciful alarmist. No one is scoffing now that his list has proven to be accurate and prophetic. A recent article reviewing all 45 of the goals can be found here.
In the preface to The Naked Communist, he said: “One of the most fantastic phenomena of modern times has been the unbelievable success of the Communist conspiracy to enslave mankind. Part of this has been the result of two species of ignorance—ignorance concerning the constitutional requirements needed to perpetuate freedom, and secondly, ignorance concerning the history, philosophy and strategy of World Communism.”
Near the end of the book, Skousen explained the third major premise of communism as follows: “‘There is no such thing as innate right or wrong…To lie, is that wrong? Not for a good cause. To steal, is that wrong? Not for a good cause. To kill, is that wrong? Not for a good cause…the end justifies the means.'” Skousen concluded, “It is highly important to Communist discipline to have every person obey blindly…a system of morals which controls conduct in terms of right and wrong makes each individual a moral free agent. This, Communism cannot stand.”
Most of us are repulsed by such blatant evil and are much more inclined to agree with the following: “We believe in a moral code. Communism denies innate right or wrong. As W. Cleon Skousen has said in his timely book, The Naked Communist: The communist ‘has convinced himself that nothing is evil which answers the call of expediency.’ This is a most damnable doctrine. People who truly accept such a philosophy have neither conscience nor honor. Force, trickery, lies, broken promises are wholly justified.” (Ezra Taft Benson, Secretary of Agriculture under President Dwight D. Eisenhower)
In his June 2020 article, “The Naked Communist – Sixty years Later” William Haupt III observed that Skousen was the first to define, “how people in capitalist nations are persuaded to choose communism or socialism at the expense of their liberty and freedom.” He also asserted, “The rise of socialism within the Democratic Party today [validates] Cleon Skousen’s warnings 60 years ago. He told us this will happen in America if we fall asleep at the wheel as guardians of our democracy.”
Now is the time to step up, become guardians of freedom, and “vote the right way.” Now is the time for each of us to decide if we support the damnable doctrines of communism, or if we are defenders of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
