I believe it’s time for ALL of us to ignore these illegal laws and edicts. They are destroying this country and we’re complying with our destruction.

“In a way, the world−view of the Party imposed itself most successfully on people incapable of understanding it. They could be made to accept the most flagrant violations of reality, because they never fully grasped the enormity of what was demanded of them, and were not sufficiently interested in public events to notice what was happening. By lack of understanding they remained sane. They simply swallowed everything, and what they swallowed did them no harm, because it left no residue behind, just as a grain of corn will pass undigested through the body of a bird.”
― George Orwell, 1984

I’m impressed that you remembered this passage and was able to find it for us. Thanks.

Wrong. The way Washington works is laws ONLY apply to conservatives.

Democrats can loot stores, burn down building, destroy cities and NOTHING happens. There’s two legal systems. One for democrats and one for the rest of us.

If we jay walk the thugs and goons of the DOJ. FBI and the court system - (filled with judges whose main qualifications are being ‘of color’ or being a sexual weirdo’) will find us guilty.

The public servant who set off a fire alarm in Congress - and lied about it- will NOT even have his wrist slapped. Lying is the democrat way - and the bimbos and pretentious ‘men’ of the press will buy his lies... and be angry with anyone who doubts a person ‘of color’... the rest of the legal system is the same. What can we do? We can hate white liberals and let them know we’re not fooled by them... which allows other citizens to speak truth to goons and thugs. And that’s what we need to do. Point at them. Out them. Tell the world what they a really are. It’s like sending 50 illegals to Martha’s Vineyard - but everyday.

I learned a new phrase today to describe a process that we have all seen for decades.

Rent Seeking:

Rent seeking (or rent-seeking) is an economic concept that occurs when an entity seeks to gain added wealth without any reciprocal contribution of productivity. Typically, it revolves around government-funded social services and social service programs.

Sounds like the entire Deep State establishment.

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.”
― Alexander Fraser Tytler
