10 Oct The 2026 Midterms – Abraham Lincoln’s Call to “Disenthrall”

In an 1862 message to Congress, President Abraham Lincoln wrote these words:
The dogmas of the quiet past, are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise — with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country.
We may not know exactly what President Lincoln felt Americans needed to ‘disenthrall’ from, but the spirit of his message resonates in 2026.
Legacy media (and their polling/conditioning operations), Uniparty messaging, and all manner of Deep State psyops want America to be enthralled by the idea of hating Trump with passion; hating Israel and the Jews; blaming the Iran War for every inconvenience in American life, especially gas prices!; and embracing romanticized idiocy about the factual historical record of failure and mass death associated with socialism and communism—all with the singular purpose and goal of rebuking and burying Trump and the MAGA movement in 2026, once and for all.
As Lincoln suggested, we must think anew and disenthrall ourselves from the nonsense narratives—“and then we can save our country”. There is reason to believe Americans can do this.
There is a wild card impact of how much of the Deep State election-rigging machinery remains operational. It’s a big wild card. But assuming it can be neutered for November 3, 2026, Americans seem fairly ‘disenthralled’ from all the psyops—they’ve seen and felt too many as they’ve watched fabricated investigations at the highest levels of the FBI and DOJ, fabricated impeachments, bogus lawfare—with rogue judges—designed to imprison or bankrupt political opposition, an orchestrated fear pandemic that killed millions, a rigged 2020 election, an orchestrated ‘fedsurrection’ on January 6th—all for the purpose of installing a left-wing puppet regime to take down the American constitutional Republic.
Americans then witnessed the takedown efforts, in living color—20+ million illegal immigrants moving through an open border, a significant percentage of whom were and are criminals; a highly untrustworthy narrative to support a Ukraine war that reeks of money-laundering purposes; a collapse of western Europe from Islamification; an all-out assault on the nuclear family, and on common decency and Christian morality in the state-sanctioned mutilation of children and introduction of boys in girls sports and in girls bathrooms.
Americans can think anew and will think anew about the idea—in the face of everything they witnessed during the Biden ‘coup’—of returning political power to Democrats in 2026.
An X poster put it this way:
Democrats seized power in 2021. Within three years, millions crossed our border, overdoses hit records and killed over 100,000 Americans yearly, the Taliban retook Afghanistan, Russia invaded Ukraine, Hamas slaughtered more than a thousand Israelis, Gaza was rightfully reduced to rubble, inflation hit 21.5% leaving families paying $14,300 more a year to live. Men entered our daughters’ bathrooms and competed in their sports. Political opponents faced relentless lawfare. The list of failures is endless. Democrats should never hold power again. NEVER

Perhaps most important: Main Street Americans are rising to the occasion (as Lincoln suggested) and are in fact increasingly, thoroughly disenthralled with the notion that Islam is a religion of peace. Politicians are afraid of the issue and cowardly in trying to pretend it’s not of concern to Americans. They are wildly wrong; it is rapidly becoming recognized as the most important existential threat to freedom in America, and no amount of Qatar-funded PR is going to change Americans’ instinctive revulsion toward sharia.
And for all of Tucker Carlson’s and MTG’s orchestrated hysteria over their concocted ‘Gaza genocide’ narrative, the truth is still getting out, even on that subject (read James Lindsay’s stellar explanation of all things Gaza, HERE.)

American patriots of all ages know that voting in big numbers, and voting ‘R’ up and down the ballot, in the 2026 midterms is nothing more or less than mandatory if Americans are to ‘save our country’. They are increasingly ‘disenthralled’ from any argument that would suggest otherwise.
