Gaslighting is defined as an emotional abuse where a manipulator makes someone doubt their own reality, memory, or sanity, fostering dependence and control, often through tactics like lying, denial, the trivializing of feelings or shifting blame.
It is a hallmark of liberalism, and something of which we should expect to reach unprecedented levels as we head into the 2026 midterm election season.
Naturally, the liberals will have their media propagandists cranking up the gas, and we all know their collective pilot lights have long been out. Just think back to the 2016 campaign. Liberals and their media propagandists knew full-well that “Russia, Russia, Russia” was a hoax, just as they knew full-well that Hunter Biden’s laptop was the Real McCoy. Lacking anything of a positive platform on which to run their anointed Hillary Clinton, liberalism relied on trying to manipulate voters by attempting to replace reality with manufactured manure.
Gaslighting.
Adam Schiff for Brains claimed he had mountains of evidence, and a line of witnesses ready to deliver against President Trump. He made those claims over and over again in one liberal propagandist media interview after another, but when push came to impeachment shove, he was unable to produce a single shred of the evidence he claimed to have, and each and every witness he claimed would bury Trump had to admit, under oath, they they never witnessed any such thing.
Gaslighting.
Liberals and their media claimed that Joe Biden was as sharp as a tack, that the border was closed, that the surrender in Afghanistan was a success, that the economy was great, there was no inflation, J-6 was an armed insurrection, and that the BLM riots, replete with arson, looting, attacks on police and assaults on the general public was…”mostly peaceful protests.”
Gaslighting.
Before I move on to more current examples of how liberalism defines gaslighting, allow me just one more from the past as a bridge to the here and now…the 2020 election. Liberals swore up and down that then President Trump was engaging in election interference when he implored the AG of Georgia to do a recount. If Trump had won Georgia, he would have won that election, but liberals defiantly insisted that there was no voter fraud…anywhere. They claimed it simply didn’t exist and that Trump was trying to “undermine democracy.”
Trump needed roughly 11,000 more votes in Georgia to win…but no recount, no investigation was done. Now we know, because Georgia has admitted to it, that better than 300,000 votes were ILLEGALLY counted in Georgia…more specifically in Atlanta. It seems more than reasonable to believe that had only LEGAL votes been counted in Fulton County Georgia, Trump would have been declared the 2020 winner, but Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger addressed the accusations in a social media post saying, “Georgia has the most secure elections in the country and all voters were verified with photo ID and lawfully cast their ballots. A clerical error at the end of the day does not erase valid, legal votes.”
Except…it does because if enough ILLEGAL votes are counted, it DOES erase valid, legal votes, but what should one expect from a party that swears Joe Biden got 81 million votes in the 2020 election? Let me put it this way…if every single person who supposedly voted for Biden in 2020 donated just one dollar to Joe’s “presidential library,” Joe would have $81 million dollars and construction of the shrine to his autopen would already be underway. So far, Joe has raised just $11 million dollars.
Gaslighting.
Now we learn that in Minnesota, they have a law which allows a registered voter to “vouch” for up to eight people seeking same-day registration. So long as the prospective voter can prove residency, the proof-of-ID can be a driver’s license or learner’s permit from any of the 50 states, a passport, an expired ID, military ID, or Minnesota university or high school identification card.
In Minnesota, President Trump lost the 2020 election by 233,012 votes. In Hennipen County, home to Minneapolis and also the home of the largest Somali population in the U.S., Joe Biden, the man who campaigned from his basement, outperformed FDR, LBJ, Obama and Clinton, and got more votes than any presidential nominee since Republican Teddy Roosevelt in 1904.
If you believe those 2020 vote totals are on the up and up, you’re sniffing the gaslighting fumes.
While Minnesota has become ground zero for the biggest corruption and financial fraud case in American history, the fraud is far more wide spread than just that state as we are now getting reports of the same sort of fraud taking place in more states, like California and Ohio. It all seems to involve Somali communities, and Minneapolis has the largest Somali population in the United States.
Governor, Tampon Tim Walz has vigorously defended his state’s Somali population and said that, “Demonizing an entire group of people by their race and their ethnicity, a very group of people who contribute to the vitality — economic, cultural — of this state is something I was hoping we’d never have to see.” That’s just more gaslighting as nobody, including President Trump, has pointed a racial finger related to this staggering fraud. It’s about corruption and theft of funds…not about skin color, but because the “community” most heavily involved happens to be black, they’re supposed to get a free pass…based solely on the color of their skin?
I don’t think so.
Let’s just be honest here, by some estimates there are 80,000 Somalis living in Minnesota, and by other estimates there are more than 107,000. It’s hard to get an accurate count because we don’t really know how many are there illegally, but how many people do you suppose came from Somalia and settled in Minneapolis for the weather? They didn’t pool in Minnesota’s Twin Cities for the climate, they landed there for the deep blue politics that looks the other way and champions criminal activity over a law-abiding culture.
They want to do as they please, engage in corruption, fraud and the theft of other people’s money in a sanctuary where anyone who tries to stop them, or simply asks questions is instantly branded as a racist.
Let’s look at the epicenter of the corruption, fraud and theft of taxpayer dollars…Somali-run daycare facilities. What we are finding is that in what’s called “Little Mogadishu” alleged “daycare” facilities are empty. No kids…no evidence of there having been ANY kids there outside of a decade old video showing kids being walked INTO one Somali daycare, and then almost immediately being walked back OUT of the facility and taken home by their parents.
That’s just more gaslighting.
Somali daycare facilities…let’s examine that for a minute. Somalia is one of the most corrupt and violent countries on Earth. Somalia also has quite the disturbing track record where children are concerned. Children in Somalia are vulnerable to serious risks which undermine their safeguarding including: forced displacement, access to education, recruitment as child soldiers, sexual abuse, marriage and child labor. Child trafficking and child sexual exploitation are also rampant in Somalia. Those things, while standard in the country of Somalia are not tolerated in the United States.
Here’s how that plays out among Somalis living in the United States:
Okay, given what we know is acceptable in Somalia, and given that Somalis living in the U.S. prefer Sharia law over American law…why would anyone in their right mind, why would anyone with a working brain cell drop their kids off at a Somali-run DAYCARE facility?
By the way liberal gaslighters…that’s neither a skin color nor a religious question, it’s a political ideology question.
As the Minnesota fraud numbers continue to grow, now reportedly reaching $9 BILLION U.S. taxpayer dollars with much of it being sent to Somalia’s al-Shabaab terrorist organization through a money-laundering system known as hawala, it appears that the influx of American taxpayer dollars into Somalia since 2018 has now reportedly exceeded that country’s annual gross domestic product. How much of that has been funding Somalia’s terrorist organization remains unclear, as Somalia has virtually no banking system or way to “follow the money,” but the investigation into it is ongoing.
In what sure seems to be an effort to stall that investigation, last week “somebody” broke into the Nokomis Daycare Center in Minneapolis and “stole” children’s enrollment information, employee documents, and checkbooks. It should be noted that a neighbor has reported that although the Nokomis Daycare Center has two vans parked outside, the neighbor has never seen them moved, nor has the neighbor EVER seen anyone either enter, or leave the building.
That’s right…all the evidence and ONLY the evidence got stolen right before that particular daycare center was to be investigated.
That’s either the strangest coincidence in the history of coincidences…or it is just more gaslighting.
Obviously, the depth of the fraud in Minnesota goes well beyond bogus Somali daycare centers, as the corruption also includes even COVID relief money, but Tampon Tim says that his administration has been investigating and clamping down on fraud in Minnesota for nearly a decade. Really? More gaslighting? How about Minnesota AG Keith Ellison? Isn’t it his job to prosecute such corruption?
Here is AG Ellison engaging in gaslighting:
When those who should know what’s happening within their own state, people like Tim Walz, Keith Ellison and Ilhan Omar pretend to be clueless in the face of a $9 BILLION dollar and growing fraud scheme…when people involved directly in and/or at the very top of the organizations and businesses stealing taxpayer dollars claim to be clueless that it was happening…that’s just plain gaslighting…and I don’t believe it is over yet.
Tampon Tim is in a politically dire situation and I believe he will be forced to resign, but he won’t go quietly. Heading into the 2026 midterm elections, the democrat party can’t afford to have Tampon Tim in office. He’s a political albatross. I believe that Tampon Tim will strike a deal with the DNC to become the party’s next political martyr by resigning at which point the DNC will claim that Walz was the VICTIM of Trump’s “politicized” justice system, and that the only reason Walz was targeted was as a façade to falsely claim the Trump DOJ isn’t racist.
Let the liberal gaslighting continue.
