A Voter Rebellion vs Left To Right Rebels

“The Counter Revolt Finally Begins” against the wokesters who took over academia, MSM & Swamp? If so, does it herald a return to bipartisan society & governance? Exhibit 1: Speaker Johnson’s calling GOP crazies’ bluff with Dem help.

As columnist Dan Henninger pointed out: “Columbia, Yale & NYU camp out while the rest of the US flees from wokeness.” Another op ed noted how the pro-Hamas, anti-Israel protesters’ demand for the colleges to divest themselves of investments that have a whiff of Jewish in them “ain’t going to happen” because, well, it’s getting more dangerous to look anti-Semitic than to look pro-terrorist. According to Henninger, “A list of the phenomena [no longer] laying us low includes DEI, defund the police, conspiracy theories, head-in-the-sand isolationism & a self-centered political polarization typified – from left to right by -- AOC, Omar, Bush, Greene & Boebert …”

But, perhaps also on point is Karl Rove’s related piece titled, “Sanity Prevails, and So Does Mike Johnson.” Karl’s suggests that, in working with the House Speaker to pass critical legislation to keep the nation (and its allies) running, “Democrats decline[d] to join the GOP chaos caucus, allowing the speaker to survive.” That’s not all, as Rove ended his op ed even more bluntly: The few Republican extremists may have suckered Dems into ousting Johnson’s predecessor on unrealistic if not trumped-up charges, but Democrats have since realized that “removing Mr. McCarthy made Congress – including their party – look out of control & incompetent [to voters]. They won’t get suckered into joining the GOP chaos caucus in removing the speaker this time.” Put another way, “Happy Days of bipartisan governance are here again” because the voting public is finally sick & tired of the blowhards who hijacked their lives.
