The lefties must be worried about Ramaswamy gaining popularity, spurring a hit piece published by the "fair and balanced" Portland, OR newspaper. It hits from so many angles that I'm at a loss to summarize. My best shot is that it builds on the obvious known truth that Christians are violent and exploit others, and that Ramaswamy's Hindu religion fits right in with it. It's a painful read. Here are a few snips:

"Both Hindu nationalism and Christian nationalism are based on the idea that the nation should be defined by a particular religious majority, and that this majority should have special privileges and status. This leads to the promotion of violence and discrimination against minority groups."

“It is a political phenomenon that involves the exploitation of religion for political purposes. I think of it as combining two kinds of things: on one hand, it’s an ideology and a set of ideas and on the other hand, it’s a political movement, an organized quest for power.”

"Ramaswamy, the second Hindu presidential candidate in history, is openly supporting white supremecist policies and aligning himself with many conservatives in both the US and abroad who openly tout Christian nationalist views."

Why we should all be worried about the links between Hindu and Christian nationalism
My gut is saying something is not fully good about him. Like he is too good to be true. On the other side, of course, I agree with almost everything he says.

Could he be in some way planted to draw votes away from Trump. Will he work as hard as Trump (probably one of the hardest working presidents in the history of our country)? Could he actually get things done like Trump did (probably one of the most accomplished Presidents in our countries history)? His business ventures don't say so. And he has connections within those business ventures to nefarious entities.

EXPLOSIVE DOCS — new docs obtained from our lawsuit against DHS’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) indicate the federal gov’t immediately participated in an effort to discredit the Hunter Biden laptop story the same day of the @nypost’s reporting:
The outcome of their criminal actions. Sending a Meme maker to prison instead.

Senator Grassley reveals FBI had 40 informants inside the Biden family for years

Chuck Grassley Reveals BOMBSHELL Update On Biden Bribery Scheme
On Wednesday Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) shed light on the alleged criminal involvement of the Biden family. Reports suggest that the FBI had over 40 confidential human sources that relayed information concerning Joe Biden, James Biden, and Hunter Biden.

Fox News has reported that Grassley found evidence indicating that a specialized FBI team within the Washington Field Office worked to dismiss and suppress this source information, labeling it as foreign disinformation. Contradicting these efforts, some sources had been thoroughly examined by multiple U.S. attorney’s offices, and they found no association with recognized Russian disinformation channels. The confidential informants “provided criminal information to the FBI relating to Joe Biden, James Biden, and Hunter Biden.” These informants were overseen by several FBI field locations throughout the country, notably the FBI’s Seattle Field Office.

Fox News reported:
The revelations were laid out in a letter Grassley wrote to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray late Tuesday night. The letter was exclusively obtained by Fox News Digital.
“Based on the information provided to my office over a period of years by multiple credible whistleblowers, there appears to be an effort within the Justice Department and FBI to shut down investigative activity relating to the Biden family,” Grassley wrote to Garland and Wray. “Such decisions point to significant political bias infecting the decision-making of not only the Attorney General and FBI Director, but also line agents and prosecutors.” He added: “Our Republic cannot survive such a political infection and you have an obligation to this country to clear the air.”

FBI received ‘criminal information’ from over 40 confidential sources on Joe Biden, Hunter, James: Grassley

The FBI maintained more than 40 confidential human sources on various criminal matters related to the Biden family, including Joe Biden, dating back to his time as vice president, according to information obtained by Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa. The confidential human sources "provided criminal information to the FBI relating to Joe Biden, James Biden, and Hunter Biden." Those confidential human sources were managed by multiple FBI field offices across the nation, including the FBI’s Seattle Field Office. But Grassley learned that an FBI task force within the Washington Field Office sought to, and in some cases, successfully, shut down reporting and information from those sources by falsely discrediting the information as foreign disinformation. That effort "caused investigative activity to cease." However, despite those efforts by the FBI task force, Grassley said in at least one instance, a confidential human source and its information had been vetted by multiple U.S. attorneys' offices, which found "no hits to known sources of Russian disinformation."
The revelations were laid out in a letter Grassley wrote to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray late Tuesday night. The letter was exclusively obtained by Fox News Digital. "Based on the information provided to my office over a period of years by multiple credible whistleblowers, there appears to be an effort within the Justice Department and FBI to shut down investigative activity relating to the Biden family," Grassley wrote to Garland and Wray. "Such decisions point to significant political bias infecting the decision-making of not only the Attorney General and FBI Director, but also line agents and prosecutors."
He added: "Our Republic cannot survive such a political infection and you have an obligation to this country to clear the air." Grassley has been investigating for years information, records, and allegations from multiple Justice Department whistleblowers that indicate "there is — and has been — an effort among certain Justice Department and FBI officials to improperly delay and stop full and complete investigative activity into the Biden family, including but not limited to FD-1023s referencing the Biden family." An FD-1023 is an FBI-generated form used to document confidential human source reporting.
