Democrats are trying to portray the midterm election as a referendum on democracy -- casting themselves as the great defenders thereof.
It is beyond obvious by now: Democrats reject the outcome of any democratic election that they lose. The entire "Russia collusion" conspiracy theory consumed the Democratic Party for years -- because they reject democracy.
But there's something even more nefarious going on. When Americans use the term "democracy," we don't simply refer to the act of voting. We also mean the system of rights that protects individuals from abuse by the majority, as well as the checks and balances that stop the government from exceeding its power.
And that's where Democrats have been actively destroying democracy, as we know it, for more than a decade -- a project that accelerated under Barack Obama and has continued since then, assisted by the so-called Deep State.
The Mar-a-Lago raid is the latest example, but there are so many others. Even the January 6 Committee, ostensibly investigating an "assault on democracy," abrogated the rights of the minority and the witnesses in its partisan zeal.
The Democratic Party, like left-wing parties worldwide, cares more about the outcomes it seeks -- all related to economic redistribution -- than the process through which decisions are meant to be made (see the student loan bailout).
The Democratic Party is the single greatest threat to democracy in America today, because it rejects the founding principles of the country and is killing liberties that were once taken for granted.
So, yes, democracy is on the ballot.

This week's portion is the last of the month of Av -- also known as Menachem (Comforter) Av -- which begins in mourning and ends in celebration and anticipation of the New Year and the process of repentance and renewal.
In a similar vein, the portion features Moses offering the Israelites a choice between a blessing and a curse. They are masters of their own fates: if they obey God's commandments, they receive the blessings -- and vice versa.
The key commandment is to reject idol worship. There is said to be something magnetic about the practice of worshiping idols in the new land, such that it would be constant moral battle, both individually and collectively, in the land.
Nowadays, according to Jewish tradition, humanity has lost the urge for idol worship (and the antidote, which is divine prophecy) -- but there are several near substitutes, such as lust or excessive appetites for worldly pleasures.
We are wired for compulsive behaviors, bad habits, and even addictions. These ...
