“Conservative Republicans like it. Leftist Democrats hate it and prepare the rat (or ferret) cage for Anthony. Corporate legacy media which leans far left is already hating on the song, and they’re ignoring it the way they tried to ignore Hunter Biden’s laptop from hell and all the brilliant reporting done by The New York Post and Miranda Devine, that was suppressed by media and Big Tech.”
There’s a new song out now that is choking the American political establishment with its own rage.
The mincing media ferrets in their employ are eager to use their teeth on Oliver Anthony, the farmer songwriter from Virginia, for exposing the often-hidden side of their face. They’ll try gutting the innocent man for the sin of singing the truth in “Rich Men North of Richmond.”
The country will be ripped up no matter what is done now. The threads of the national unravelling were pulled viciously for years. The left will try to destroy Oliver Anthony. To leave him untouched would be unthinkable, and they would douse him with real or imagined sin and light it on fire. But before they burn him for speaking truth to their power, but first I wanted to mention something that happened years ago.
You might think of it as an epiphany.
I’m not a songwriter like Oliver Anthony. But on a hot afternoon in August, I went to the movies with Betty and knew America just wouldn’t ever be the same.
There was no stopping the coming change being hinted at. A terrible change with no happy ending. But once you got the hint–and no one who loves America wanted the scent of it–you knew change was inevitable.
The hint was hidden deep in a modern Western “Hell or High Water” with Jeff Bridges as the crusty Texas Ranger and Chris Pine and Ben Foster as Army desperate veterans and bank robbers.
