On Monday night, former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich appeared on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity” and issued a serious warning to Americans in regards to the indictment of former President Donald Trump by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, for challenging the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.
Gingrich said, “[W]e are drifting towards the greatest Constitutional crisis since the 1850s, uh, and the rise of secession and the Civil War,” which will “(establish) a moment of bitterness, which I think will last for a generation or more.”
Unfortunately, I think his assessment hit the nail on the head.

Gingrich said, “I think what you’re seeing tonight is one tree in a forest, and I think we are drifting towards the greatest Constitutional crisis since the 1850s, uh, and the rise of secession and the Civil War. I don’t mean that as hyperbole. Uh, if you read Andy McCarthy’s remarkable book, Ball of Collusion, which came out in 2019, he makes very clear that it is Barack Obama who corrupts the Justice Department, it is Hillary Clinton who routinely breaks the law and gets away with it.”
He continued, “And now we have Joe Biden who’s learned, he’s learned from Obama that is doesn’t matter what you do, if you’re a liberal Democrat, you will not be prosecuted. He learned from Hillary that a person in high public office can get millions and millions of dollars. And they learned from watching Donald Trump that a true outsider, willing to take on the entire system, could destroy their entire machine.”
The historian warned, “So what you’re seeing across the country, is a desperate, last-ditch effort by a corrupt machine to destroy their most dangerous opponent in a way which not only breaks the Constitution, destroys the rule of law, and establishes a moment of bitterness, uh, which I think will last for a generation or more. I think this is gonna be a horrendous period and we just need to understand: The people who want to control America and dictate to the rest of us will break any law, lie about any topic, and manipulate the system any way they can, and that includes a lot of the elite news media.”
Gingrich also urged House Republicans to cut off funding for the Department of Justice’s prosecution of the former president.
“I think this is so dangerous to the very survival of the republic that it has to be stopped,” he said, predicting that millions of Americans will campaign for Trump next year if he is still tied with court trials.

DT is a very dangerous man because he is NOT a sleazebag, low-life professional lying politician-
parasite screwing the American taxpayers!!!!
RAPE, PILLAGE, PLUNDER; AMERICA YOU’VE BEEN HAD!
Though it saddens me to report that the time I have been expecting for over 45 years appears to be rapidly approaching, my oath as a soldier and cop demands that I do so. Suggest that all Americans carefully read/share the words Newt Gingrich presents in the attached article. Newt’s words reinforce the warning I presented to the citizens of an American city while serving as their police chief over 36 years ago.
Basically I informed the citizens gathered in that meeting hall to protest the illegal actions of their city/county/state governments that: 1). The American people are the most effectively lied to people in modern times; and 2). The greatest threat not only to their way of life but their very lives is that presented by the hoards of self-serving, corrupt, incompetent, cowards embedded in the American political class, the American bureaucracy, the American media, and American academia.
Needless to say I was not re-elected to a second term as president of the local Rotary Club and I returned to the Texas plains shortly thereafter.
Have a nice day while you still can.

I thank you for your accuracy, and because I fear #1 more, I place it as “Greatest Threat.” I think those you specify as #2, rely on it more than we could have believed, and “the press” (in all its current forms) only manifests the threat our founders believed they could defend against by protecting it.
Gingrich PFFT, however this is going to explode into a Civil War that the Guvmunt has been itching for. None of this is surprising and the set up all the way back to 2016. They keep throwing Chitzu balls at the Citizens begging them to rise Up.
