Overnight News: Athwartnership for America: If there was ever a time to yell “Stop!” – it’s now.

When William F. Buckley declaimed that The National Review “stands athwart history yelling Stop!” – he was conceding Hegel’s (and hence Marx’s) argument by pretending to defy it. It would be churlish to ask how not challenging political determinism has worked out, but NR has been hugely successful at throwing off new totalitarians – who then make bank as cable news “conservatives.”

Whatever. We are at a moment where actual – not symbolic – athwartnering can do some good.

Assuming electoral redemption is possible – assuming the Grasshoppers have not taken over permanently – what we need right now is the best attainable outcome of government: Nothing.

We need to stand athwart the Biden regime demanding that it stop doing anything until it can be replaced.

The Arizona recount argues that Senator Mark Kelly should be recalled. The endless shenanigans in Georgia demand the decertification of its Senate run-off election.

Assuming neither of those things happen, Americans need to lean on their senators and representatives to make sure nothing more changes until the voters have had a chance to veto the Marxism Biden’s handlers are trying to smuggle in.
