The late Walt Kelly’s comic strip character Pogo famously opined, “We have met the enemy, and he is us.” Bestselling author and political commentator David Horowitz proves Pogo’s point masterfully in his latest book, “Final Battle: The Next Election Could Be the Last.”

Horowitz asserts that the Democrat Party is the real danger to democracy as they continue chipping away at the foundation of our constitutional republic.

Alarmingly, they are closer to succeeding at remaking America than many realize.

Raised by Communist parents, Horowitz knows exactly where today’s progressives are steering America, and his book is a klaxon horn warning Americans the ship of state has passed the reefs of political fascism and is in serious danger of grounding itself on the shoals of a totalitarian future.

“When the president of the United States declares, as Joe Biden did in 2019, that ‘systemic racism…has been built into every aspect of our system,’ he is endorsing the anti-American radicalism of critical race theorists, Black Lives Matter activists, and cultural Marxists,” Horowitz writes.

Beginning with the questionable election results of the November 2020 election, Final Battle takes readers on an instructive tour of Democrat planned destruction designed to defame America’s history and traditions, undermine the integrity of our elections, politicize our government agencies, indoctrinate the military with mandatory critical race theory instruction, and obliterate our borders by granting noncitizens voting, welfare and healthcare privileges.

Final Battle indicts events of the last three years, including the Left’s impotent response to the Black Lives Matter and Antifa riots in the summer of 2020. It also addresses the faux J6 insurrection and the sham impeachments of Trump, noting that the House impeachment managers didn’t bother delivering the second impeachment charge to the Senate until five days after Trump left office.

“In other words, Democrats were intent on removing a private citizen from an office he no longer held. This made no sense except as a perverse expression of their obsessive hatred of the man himself,” Horowitz notes in Chapter 2.

Horowitz doesn’t mince words in Final Battle, mapping out in 11 economical chapters how citizens’ constitutional rights are frequently being undermined by politicians, bureaucrats, military leaders, federal courts, government health agencies and non-governmental organizations funded by radical financiers like George Soros and Tom Steyer.

“Culture matters. In their zeal to remake the world, Democrats have ignored the consequences of their actions and the human tragedies they have caused,” he writes on the open border crisis. Calling open borders “a terrible idea,” the authors adds, “No other country of consequence has them. In their zeal to gain political power, Democrats have grossly diminished the societies they govern and the lives in their care.”

In Chapter 7’s “Reimagining the World,” Horowitz reiterates the problem with progressives’ unrealistic plans: “The chief problem with utopian schemes: the detachment from reality that comes from replacing the lessons of experience with ideological dogmas.”

Horowitz not only torches liberal cows like Black Lives Matter and the Green Agenda, he also highlights names he blames for much of the unrest the past three years, including Joe Biden, Anthony Fauci and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Granted special recognition for his hypocrisy and disloyalty to his oath of office is Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley.

Two examples Horowitz noted included Milley’s analogy of comparing Donald Trump to Adolph Hitler, and his flip flopping when Trump wanted to invoke the Insurrection Act when a Black Lives Matter mob torched the Church of the Presidents in Lafayette Square. Milley belittled Trump’s request, telling the president, “When guys show up in gray and start bombing Fort Sumter, you’ll have an insurrection. I’ll let you know about it,” Milley said.

Later when Biden and Nancy Pelosi referred to January 6 as an insurrection, Milley “remained dutifully and irresponsibility silent,” Horowitz quotes two Washington Post reporters.

“That such a confused, ignorant and fanatical individual is the head of America’s military forces ought to be deeply troubling to anyone concerned not only about civilian control of the military but the security of America itself,” Horowitz writes of the four-star general who helped mastermind America’s worst military event since Pearl Harbor.

Final Battle is buttressed by 34 pages of foot notes and is written in a format that is succinct, comprehensible and reads like a novel. Horowitz has again done America a favor defending it from forces working tirelessly to transform it into another failed utopian state.

Book Review – Blitz

The COVID-19 shutdown. A murderous arrest by a heartless cop resulting in mass riots, looting and chaos in major cities. Statues of Founding Fathers and historical figures being vandalized and toppled.

National polls that consistently show President Donald J. Trump losing to a former vice-president and senator with dementia and arguably the fewest accomplishments over a 47-year political career of any Democrat presidential candidate ever.

There are less than five months before Election Day 2020, so who can blame Trump supporters if they need a booster shot of optimism and positivity in one of the most chaotic and uncertain years in recent memory?

Conservative commentator and best selling author David Horowitz shares a snappy pep talk and more in “Blitz: Trump Will Smash the Left and Win.”

The 245-page book provides an impressive overview over 14 chapters on why the Left has tried to destroy the Trump presidency the past three years, how this unconventional president has stayed one step ahead of the mob the whole time, and why the “dude with ‘tude” is not only going to win re-election, he’s going to do it by beating these miscreants at their own game.

A central question throughout Blitz is why do the Democrats and their media acolytes hate Trump so much? Blitz provides the reasons why, and two of the main ones are mentioned in Chapter 1: The Trump Threat.

“A Trump presidency would dismantle the ‘fundamental transformation’ of America they thought they had put in motion during the eight years of the Obama administration,” Horowitz writes.

If failing to accept the results of the 2016 election isn’t bad enough, Horowitz cites another reason why Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is far more widespread than COVID-19 could ever be.

“Trump was not only not one of them, he was their worst nightmare – disrespectful toward everything they stood for – politically incorrect,” he says.

Progressives cannot stand the fact that the President of the United States could care less what they think. Even worse (for them), he hits back twice as hard as they punch.

How organized is the “Resistance to” Trump? In Chapter 2 (Divide, Sabotage, Resist), the former liberal tuned conservative commentator/author details how a four-day event sponsored by George Soros’s Democracy Alliance was held just five days after the 2016 election.

That fevered gathering was held to develop specific strategies on how to sabotage the new administration’s first 100 days in office.

According to Horowitz the alliance at D.C.’s Mandarin Oriental Hotel consisted of 110 billionaires who each pledged $200,000 annually to left-wing causes like Antifa, Black Lives Matter and the hopelessly corrupt Southern Poverty Law Center.

In today’s headlines you see the results of those donations: Black Lives Matter furiously stirring the racial pot, paid looters and sponsored anarchy in Minneapolis and elsewhere, and CHOP squatting in Seattle with the blessings of an impotent Washington state governor and head-in-the-clouds Seattle mayor.

Throughout Blitz Horowitz recalls how the Left went nuclear against Trump from Day One with notorious non-stop attacks, ranging from the sham Russian Collusion delusion and sabotaging efforts to secure the border, to openly calling for harassment and bullying of Trump supporters, and fast tracking a sham impeachment on laughable charges.

In chapter after chapter, Horowitz succinctly lays out how the Left’s fury at losing the election and how their irrational hatred of Trump has blinded them to reason and the desire to compromise. The author also details how almost everything the president’s detractors have leveled at him has come full circle like a conservative boomerang.

Blitz also reveals how the Left illegally spied on the President and his staff, doxed his supporters, leaked damaging stories and classified information, met with leaders of foreign countries in efforts to undercut him, criticized the assassination of foreign terrorists who had killed American servicemen and women, and backdated FBI documents and whistleblower laws – all in an attempt to remove “Orange Man Bad” from office.

Horowitz calls the devastating effects of the Left’s relentless attacks on the country “incalculable.” However, he leaves readers on a positive note: “Fortunately, in 2016 Americans elected a leader who has been able to withstand these seditious attacks and steer the nation forward, making it more prosperous and stronger than ever before.”

The author caps his impressive work with an Afterword outlining The Nine Biggest Dangers to America from the Anti-Trump left and The Top Ten Lies Democrats Have Told.
