…rest assured, they are doing it to distract from all their voting fraud.
But we knew that.

Subservient
These tweets have made the rounds of conservative social, cable and broadcast media.
Which doesn’t mean they don’t need to be splattered far and wide.
Berg’s Seventh Law is omnipresent:
“Irony” – Judge Coney Barrett is already one of the nation’s most powerful jurists, even if she never gets on the SCOTUS (and here’s hoping she does, and soon). She’s accomplished more in her life, so far, than any of the people yapping on Twitter about “The Handmaids Tale” “parallels” in her faith life.
Just saying – if “People of Praise” preaches “subservience for women”, they’re doing a terrible job of it.
Oh, yeah – Berg’s Seventh Law”
If the left didn’t have double standards…
…well, you know where we go from here.
Look Into The Gaslight
During the Bush years, as many as a third of Democrats had some level of belief that 9/11 was an inside job.
Today, a significant number – on social media, it looks like a supermajority – believe that Trump colluded with Russia, that Kavanaugh raped someone, that “white supremacists” started the riots, that “Anti”-fa is anti-fascist, that Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s purported “dying wish” should have some legal merit and that the Electoral College disenfranchises them.
Which is why we’re seeing this sort of “journalism”, doubtlessly placed by a Democrat attack-PR firm, about a movement whose adherence among the GOP is likely in low single digits.
Yep – it’s Berg’s 7th Law, and Urban Progressive Privilege – a gaslighting twofer!
You Have Questions. Berg’s Law Has Answers
“So, Mitch – why are the Democrats and media (ptr) spending so much time saying that Trump wants to delegitimize the election?”
The answer, of course, is because they need to deflect away from the fact that they are trying, in advance, to delegitimize the election.
Shot In The Dark: Tomorrow’s News, 15 Years Ago
It’s been percolating about “prog” social media lately – the notion that Trump, should he lose the election, wouldn’t relinquish office.
Never mind how, or whether it’s remotely plausible. All that is necessary for the left-wing noise machine is to get the chatters chattering.
But as to “why would they be spreading such palpable poppycock?”
If you’re a regular reader, you know Berg’s Seventh Law.
And if you know Berg’s Seventh Law, you already have your answer.
In Much The Same Way As OJ Is Looking For “The Real Killers” (Part II)…
…Big Left is scouring the world for that wave of “white terror” that, we have been assured since 2009, is imminent.
But again, Big Left has met its enemy, and they are it:
In Much The Same Was As OJ Is Looking For “The Real Killers”…
Divisive!
The Paper of Walter Duranty, the one that published the deeply ahistorical, revisionistic and nothing-but-inflammatory “1629 Project”, the one that published Paul Krugman’s innumerate claims that “blue” America bankrolls “red” America, which has been openly advocating “progressive” ideals in its editorial pages since I was in high school, which has been one of the primary PR agents for the left in America’s cultural cold civil war, the one that has not only been a “progressive” flak for generations but whose young, “woke” red guard faction has moved beyond shaping the informational battlefield to actively purity-testing the left-leaning editorial staff to drive it further to the cultural and political left…
…has the victorian vapours about “cultural divisiveness” over Trump’s weekend speech at Mount Rushmore.
Watch for yourself.
The only thing that I could find that was remotely “divisive” was exhortation about three minutes in stating that Mount Rushmore would never be desecrated – which, I imagine, some post-modern academics find profoundly hostile.
Or maybe the bit around 5:10 here he said the rights of man will never be taken away. That has got to make Tim Walz nervous.
Perhaps the part around 6:10, where he points out that Americans aren’t “weak and submissive” in facing the war on American culture, but will in fact prevail. That’s a pretty clear and direct threat to…someone.
Too bad, so sad.
Berg’s Seventh Law is iron-clad and absolute.
Distillation
From the American Heritage dictionatry, the word “Distillation”
- n.The evaporation and subsequent collection of a liquid by condensation as a means of purification.
- n.The extraction of the volatile components of a mixture by the condensation and collection of the vapors that are produced as the mixture is heated.
- n.A distillate.
With that definition in mind: this article in the Atlantic is as pure a distillation of Berg’s Seventh Law as rhetorical chemistry will allow.
Berg’s Seventh Law: Locked And Loaded
Read this statement by the “executive director” and chief check-endorser of a major gun-grab group and see if you detect the same theme I do:
“Gun makers are softening their image to ‘put a better face in front of people’ & ‘ramp up its appeal to women, children and members of minority groups,'” Igor Volsky, executive director of gun-control activist group Guns Down America, said in a tweet. Volsky, who is also a former vice president of the Center for American Progress, was commenting on a New York Times story about firearms marketing.
“That’s right,” Volsky continued. “Gun makers are increasingly advertising to WOMEN, CHILDREN & MINORITY COMMUNITIES. Firearm industry realizes that to survive into the future it must ‘broaden its reach beyond the aging white men who have been its core customers’—and so they’re now trying to sell their products to other demographics. This is incredibly dangerous.”
Imagine an executive in any other field bemoaning the diminished capacity of “WOMEN CHILDREN & MINORITIES” around any other product…
…not to mention Civil Right?
Let Berg’s Seventh Law Be Your Guide
To jog the memory – Berg’s Seventh Law reads “When a Liberal / “Progressive” issues a group defamation or assault on conservatives’ ethics, character, humanity or respect for liberty or the truth, they are at best projecting, and at worst drawing attention away from their own misdeeds.”
So – if the Democrats accuse any Republican, especially Trump, of some sort of miscreancy?
You can count on it being a noise-screen to cover up their own perfidy.
Following months of angry claims by journalists and Democratic operatives that the Obama administration never spied on Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, The New York Times admitted Thursday that multiple overseas intelligence assets were deployed against associates of the Republican nominee. It is not the first time the Times has revealed widespread spying operations against the campaign.
In addition to noting that long-time informant Stefan Halper was tasked with collecting intelligence on the Trump campaign, the Times story details how a woman was sent overseas under a fake name and occupation to oversee the spy operation. The woman’s real name is not mentioned in the article, though the Times says she went by “Azra Turk” and has a relationship with an unidentified federal intelligence agency.
This is going to go on a looong time.
Unless the Democrats sweep the White House and Congress in 2020, in which case it’s going to disappear…
But Remember…
It’s the right wing that’s always hinting at violence.
That’s So 1977…
I’m old enough to remember when the American political and media establishment wracked itself into knots over the fact that the executive branch had been using the CIA and Hoover’s FBI to spy on domestic political opposition.
Among my earliest memories of politics and news – after Watergate, naturally – were the Church Commission hearings, which clamped down on the use of intelligence and law enforcement for domestic shenanigans.
For a while, anyway.
Seems like everything old is new again:

The Shorter “Every Argument With A Minnesota Gun Control Advocate”
THEY: You’re paranoid! Nobody is coming for your guns! Period!
ME: The Democrats have been introducing bills that would ban vast swathes of guns, and have been telegraphing that they see the whole thing as an incremental process. Perhaps you could stand to open your mind and learn a bit.
THEY: I don’t have time to obsess over this stuff.
ME: Well, those of us who make the time are telling you – the threat is real.

ME: Yeah, so I hear – but those of us who stay involved are telling you – the threat is no joke.
THEY: You’re paranoid! Nobody is coming for your guns! Period!

THEY: I don’t have time to obsess over this stuff.

THEY: You’re paranoid! Nobody is coming for your guns! Period!

Berg’s Seventh Law In The News – Sort Of
Joe Doakes from Como Park emails:
Psychological Projection is when I assume you have the bad traits that I deny I have. A liar will assume everyone else is a liar. It’s embodied in Berg’s Seventh Law.
A mobster predicts Trump will have Cohen “whacked” in prison because that’s what happens to snitches. The story itself is proof Trump isn’t a mobster. If he was an actual mobster (or even a Clinton), Cohen would already be dead.
And let’s talk about all those violence-worshiping Democrats yipping about Cal Bahr.
Six Thousand Words On Berg’s Laws
I could write six thousand words about Berg’s Seventh, Sixteenth and Seventeenth laws if I wanted.
Or I could just display this:
Either way. Mission accomplished.
Care Required
I’m not sure how old the adage is – but liberals should take keen advice from the phrase “only give your side the power you’re not afraid of your enemy having”.
For example, many on the left express worry about the Trump administration stance – hostility – towards the media.
They do this, apparently, forgetting that Trump isn’t doing anything that Obama did and pave the way to:
Criticism of Mr. Obama’s stance on press freedom, government transparency and secrecy is hotly disputed by the White House, but many journalism groups say the record is clear. Over the past eight years, the administration has prosecuted nine cases involving whistle-blowers and leakers, compared with only three by all previous administrations combined. It has repeatedly used the Espionage Act, a relic of World War I-era red-baiting, not to prosecute spies but to go after government officials who talked to journalists.
Under Mr. Obama, the Justice Department and the F.B.I. have spied on reporters by monitoring their phone records, labeled one journalist an unindicted co-conspirator in a criminal case for simply doing reporting and issued subpoenas to other reporters to try to force them to reveal their sources and testify in criminal cases.
If the left didn’t have double-standards…
…well, you know where this goes, right?
Berg’s Seventh Law Is Getting Creaky And Worn Out From Constant Over-Use
If a conservative were to say bla blq bla that Jimmy Kimmel just bla bla bla yadda yadda:
In the place of ABC’s late-night Jimmy Kimmel: The “Man Show” Jimmy Kimmel. The only thing missing were the women on trampolines.
Kimmel took aim Thursday at the Christian proprietor of Masterpiece Cakeshop in Colorado. For the late-night funny man, the takeaway from Jack Phillips’ refusal to bake a cake celebrating a trans person’s transition is that the cakemaker might be gay, and that he sure looks gay.
“It’s funny because this is a guy who spends all day, every day, meticulously designing flowers out of icing. His whole life is gay, OK?” Kimmel said to laughs. “I don’t know if the wrong cake might bring that to life or what.”
The late-night host turned his attention to the shop owner’s physical appearance, adding for good measure that Phillips is “the totally straight cake baker.”
“You would think that someone who looks like the Reba McEntire’s version of Col. Sanders would be more sympathetic to gender identity issues,” the host laughed.
“Progs” jabber about “right wing hate”, and then marinade their own culture in the real thing.
The most depressingly evergreen story in all of media.
Berg’s Seventh Law Is Universal And Unfailing
When Democrats whinge about “right wing violence”…
…well, you know what comes next, don’t you?
Orwell Was A Pollyanna
Progs at Evergreen State (but I repeat myself) equate science and white supremacy:
Earlier this week, some graffiti was spotted on campus that sought to couterpose intersectionality and the sciences, equating the latter with white supremacy. Facilities staff have completed the chore of cleaning up the graffiti.
Bret Weinstein – the former ESU bio prof who became a national symbol for the intolerant left, had a riposte:
George,
During the @EvergreenStCol riots, students of color were chastised as traitors for studying science, science faculty were hunted, and you ordered campus police to stay out of it. Don’t pretend this graffiti is surprising. These are your chickens, home to roost.

Remember this Berg’s Seventh Law violation next time some liberal bobblehead coos that the left is the party of science.
Berg’s Seventh Law Is Universal And All-Seeing
Can you imagine if a significant Republican were to acknowledge that violence was a good thing in pursuit of political ends?
No, not Donald Trump urging his supporters to “hit back”, at a time when people were, y’know, hitting them first. .No, actually forming groups and going out and beating up people who dissent from the GOP.
Can you imagine the projectile pants-soiling that’d happen?
Especially if it weren’t some marginal figure – but a sitting Congressman? To say nothing of a member of the party’s central leadership?
But as usual – as always – it’s the Democrats doing it. Keith Ellison, to – let’s be honest, nobody’s surprise – has endorsed The Antifa Handbook
Ellison, the deputy chairman of the Democratic National Committee, posted a photo on Twitter Wednesday of himself posing with the book “Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook.” The book calls violence during counter-protests “a small though vital sliver of anti-fascist activity.”
Ellison’s post said the book should “strike fear into the heart” of President Donald Trump.
Big Left, via its subsidiary Big Media, loves to remind us that “Right Wing Violence” is the “real” danger, and is lurking around the corner, one of these days, honest.
But it seems all the actual violence, and endorsement of more violence, to say nothing of use of mob influence to control society, is coming from the left.
Berg’s Seventh Law Is Universal And Inviolable
Gun violence prevention control grouips are fond of whipping up “popular” anger against “the gun lobby” – portrayed as an immense, boundlessly wealthy group of heartless white guys with three piece suits and cigars, cackling with glee at the deaths of innocent children. Big Left has worked overtime to try to demonize civil rights groups, especially the NRA, as 900 pound gorillas that the plucky criminal-safety advocates can’t possibly compete with.
So what’s the truth?
As always – read Berg’s Seventh Law: “When a Liberal issues a group defamation or assault on conservatives’ ethics, character, humanity or respect for liberty or the truth, they are at best projecting, and at worst drawing attention away from their own misdeeds.”.
And the Law will lead you to the truth. It always does:
After compiling the numbers we discovered pro-gun control candidates received more than six times more money than pro-gun rights candidates on the issue.
Last year, the largest recipient of campaign cash from pro-gun rights groups in Oregon was Laura Morett. The Republican candidate for state representative and former “Survivor” reality show contestant received $10,132.86 total from the Oregon Firearms Federation and the National Rifle Association (NRA). Despite the infusion of cash, Morett was not successful in defeating state Rep. Paul Evans, D-Salem.
“But Mitch – that’s Oregon!”
The ration is even more lopsided in Minnesota, where the antis outspent the good guys nearly 10:1 in the 2016 legislative elections.
Since We’re Talking About Harassment
Al Franken resigned so that the full weight of the Democrat noise machine can turn its attention to attacking Roy Moore – thereby returning the narrative to “The Republican War On Women”.
Speaking of which – has there ever been a better Berg’s Seventh Law violation than “The War On Women”?
Anyway – this past few months, our society’s been focused incessantly on the various grades of “Sexual Harassment” – the use of un-consented flirting, “blue” conversation, touching and more aggressive sexual contact, especially that which takes place in the context of a power disparity. Whether it’s feeling entitled to grab a little “no go zone” anatomy without consent, to trading sex for advancement, to using the resources of the state you govern to silence people who complain about what you do, and everything in between, the genera consensus is “It’s bad”.
So our society’s been lingering for a few months on every possible permutation of sexual harassment, and how society deals with it (“due process”? “Always believe women!”? “Always believe women, unless they’re accusing men who are key votes for abortion rights legislation”?), I think it’s time to look at another version.
On The Plantation: “Progressivism” heaps especial scorn on apostates – Afro-Americans, Latinos, Asians and women wno leave the Progressive plantation.
And no, the right doesn’t do the same thing. Have you ever heard a conservative rip on, say, Paul Thissen or Tom Bakk for “betraying middle aged white guys” [1] by not being a conservative? No. And you never will.
But you do hear mainstream “progressives” tear into black, Latino, asian and female conservatives for, I kid you not, “betraying” their race and gender. [2]
And if any of them run for office? They turn psychotic (which brings us to Berg’s Eight Law).
In particular, I’ve talked with a number of female conservatives who’ve related a similar pattern to me; they’ve thought about running for office, or for higher office – but demurred…
…because they knew the Democrat smear machine was going to do in terms of splashing their private life, current, past and long-past, in public.
So let’s get this straight: to “Progressive” “feminists”, “slut-shaming” women who have had more than one partner in their lives, or who’ve gone out in public dressed as someone other than Hester Prynne, is completely unacceptable – unless one has:
- Accused a Democrat politician of some sort of impropriety, in which it will be used to discredit you
- Run for office as a non-Democrat, in which case it will be used to assassinate your character.
Which, put another way, is using sex to preserve disparate power.
[1] Their narrative about conservatives and conservatism. Not mine.
[2] Conservatism is never, ever about identity. Anyone who says it is is driven by narrative, not fact.
Hate Crime
Big Left has been warning us that there’s a wave of ideological hate crime just around the corner, and that you gotta watch out for those crazy right-wingers.
It’s a Berg’s Seventh Law occurrence, of course.
A gunman attacked a Republican congressional baseball practice this morning. His mission? “Kill as many Republicans as possible”.
Shortly after the shooting Wednesday morning at a congressional baseball practice, Rep. Mark Walker (R-N.C.) told NBC News that it appeared the “gunman was there to kill as many Republican members as possible.” Walker, who was at the practice for the upcoming annual congressional baseball game in Alexandria, Virginia, confirmed he was “shaken but okay.”
“Punch a Nazi”.
“Anti-Fa”.
Hello, Liberals – when so much of your side is awash in demented hatred (the real thing, not the “disagreement with our narrative is hate” thing that so many of you jabber about), and given the instability wrapped in entitlement that so many people on your side have, what do you think is going to happen?
Be careful out there, Real Americans. It’s gonna get worse before it gets better.
UPDATE: While Berg’s 19th Law is still in effect (“Nothing the media writes/says about any emotionally charged event – a mass shooting, a police shooting, anything – should be taken seriously for 48 hours after the original incident. It will largely be rubbish, as media outlets vie to “scoop” each other even on incorrect facts”), the shooter’s Facebook page indicates he is a Sanders supporter.
UPDATE 2: The WaPo has ID’ed the shooter as a 66 year old Illinois man.
UPDATE 3: As usual, many on the left are acting like poo-flinging baboons.
UPDATE 4: James Hodgkinson is the name, and this is from his Facebook page:
Apparnetly “& Co” is “All Republicans”.
Clearly, we need universal background checks for Democrat voters buying guns.
