Ben Carson claims Kavanaugh allegations are part of a 'centuries old socialist plot'

[ehrnst]

Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Dr. Ben Carson said that a long-running plot by Socialists to take over America was fueling recent allegations of sexual assault against President Donald Trump's nominee to the Supreme Court.

"There've been people in this country for a very long time....who don't like what this country represents," Carson told an audience of conservative activists.These forces he said, were now "like wet hornets" and "out of control."

"There've been people in this country for a very long time, going all the way back to the Fabians, people who've wanted to fundamentally change this country."

The term "Fabians" refers to the Fabian Society, a British socialist organization that was founded in the 19th century, and which today functions as part of the UK's Labour Party. An American chapter of the Fabian society was established in 1895 in Boston, but it is no longer active in the United States.

Establishment Republicans were quick to distance themselves Friday from Trump's remarks. But Carson took them a step further. Not only did he frame the sexual assault allegation in the context of a plot with its roots in the Fabian Society, but he also expressed concern that the allegations against Kavanaugh might deter "good people" from seeking positions in government in the future.

"The fearful part is that good people will be afraid to serve their government," Carson told the Values Voters audience. "They won't want to take a chance of their reputation being sullied."

3. So British Socialists from the 1890s made Dr. Ford tell her story in 2018 about being sexually ...

... attacked by a drunk teen called Brett Kavanaugh in 1980s @ a Bethesda, MD party? And
over the course of her life after the attack Dr. Ford told her therapist, her husband, and her friends
about that attack too because of Fabians?

Sounds good to me.

4. Yes. Back in 1792, Obama did it.

5. Damn! He's on to us

Quick, everybody, to the stolen grain silos! You know, the ones that we boosted from the pyramids? I always knew we were playing a dangerous game, but of all people, we should have known it would be the unappreciated genius of Ben Carson that would expose us one day!
