The warning signs are everywhere, we ignore them at our peril Laura Hollis names the 4 ways the powerful elite are destroying America

The study of human history reveals plenty of ideologies that have led to oppression, war, the rise of dictatorial regimes, the destruction of economies and the deaths of millions of people. There were, of course, those who tried to warn the public. They were ignored, silenced or even eliminated. That same pattern is playing out in the United States and other Western nations. The warning signs of looming disaster are evident across our most significant cultural institutions, and they are being widely ignored. These warnings fall into four basic categories. The first is deception: The powerful tell lies of increasing severity with no compunction and no consequences.

Sadly, maybe 10% give a crap. To simplify:

2. corruption (within law enforcement and the legal system)

3. Control (climate change demands to control nearly every aspect of your life)

4. Arrogance (the lynchpin of all destruction, epsteens, sam bankman freed, etc)

Read Laura's descriptions under each category and see if you agree.

You can't make people care either. Most times it's too late when they start caring.

This is a very good read, short and nails every point clearly.

Frankly it gets more than irritating all these people saying what the problems are but offer no solutions nor those who could do anything that would make a difference in the trajectory we're on.

All these investigations of Biden will be stalled off until his term is over....and no prosecutions.

The entire plan is simply to keep the US citizens occupied with fake attempts to correct problems that never get corrected.

Noting that we're way past the point of dealing with "wolves," Thomas Jefferson had warned citizens about not paying attention to what the government is doing.
“Cherish, therefore, the spirit of our people, and keep alive their attention. If once they become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress and Assemblies, judges and governors, shall all become wolves [emphasis added]. It seems to be the law of our general nature.” - Thomas Jefferson (Letter to Edward Carrington January 16, 1787)

Two GREAT books....as this is a Christian problem when it gets down to it.

Eric Metaxas- Letter to the American Church
Johnny Enlow - The Seven Mountain Prophecy
(also Lance Wallnau or the Sorbo’s versions)

Afterall...The Word of God, The Bible, sites many times man has destroyed themselves. Just realize that taxpayers are destroying themselves and people all over the world right now supplying war weapons, medical ‘care’, letting illegals invade us, child trafficing, gender confusion-—all things happened in Bible historic stories... But, only a remnant want to know and read God’s Word.

As earlier, maybe 10% care any more? At least it appears that way. My circle is more but observing others out of it gives you a clue. Hoping I’m wrong but .......

Thank you for reply rktman.

"As earlier, maybe 10% care any more? At least it appears that way."


I respectfully disagree that few patriots care anymore.

Respectfully to Freeper parents, please consider the following.

As a consequence of parents not making sure that their children are being taught about the federal government's constitutionally limited powers as the delegates to the Constitutional Convention had intended for those power to be understood, regardless that patriots voters are very concerned about the unconstitutionally big federal government, it remains that they don't know the first step to take to peacefully but the big, bad federal government back into its constitutionally limited power "cage."

In fact, I suggest that patriots start making noise about ALL the states effectively "seceding" from the unconstitutionally big federal government by working with their MAGA state lawmakers to repeal the 16th (direct taxes) and 17th (popular voting for federal senators) Amendments (16&17A).

If the repeal 16&17A amendment were strictly limited to that purpose, then relatively little, or ideally no discussion would be needed before ratification imo.

The invasion by 3rd world men should be #1 on the list.

Laura, you’re about 30 years too late. We’ve crossed the Rubicon IMHO.

I once heard it referred to as World Nut Daily. Sometimes they are a bit out there, but this piece makes a lot of sense to me.

The USA has been ever changing since Columbus sailed the
ocean blue in 1492. Just take a moment and thing back at
the changes that have been made to this land called the USA.
Changes will continue and the inhabitants will move on. We
have fought wars both internal and overseas. Life goes on.

The destruction of America is a prime moving force in the world and Biden is its leader.
