First they came for Mike Flynn, but I said nothing...

History repeats itself. History repeats itself. History repeats itself. This is because human nature does not change. This is because power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Today's America reminds us more and more and more of Germany in the early 1930s. With proper credit given to German pastor Martin Niemoller...

– They came after President Trump, but I said nothing because I did not like his tweets.

– They came after the J-6 protesters who have been locked up as political prisoners, but I said nothing because they seemed a little too "unwashed."

– They came after the Founding Fathers, but I said nothing because they're from an age a very long time ago.

– They came after soccer moms at school board meetings, but I said nothing because my kids are already out of school.

They came after MAGA Nation, but I said nothing because I considered myself a college-educated moderate.

– They came after the Christians/constitutionalists/conservatives in the military, but I said nothing because I never served in uniform.

– They came after the citizens who carry 2A, but I said nothing because guns scare me.

– They came after the police, but I said nothing because none of my family wears blue.

– They came after the EMS/firefighters/nurses, but I said nothing because I was already vaccinated.

SNIP

– They came after Steve Bannon, Mike Flynn, and Roger Stone, but I said nothing because they can afford their own attorneys.

– They came after Governor DeSantis, but I said nothing because I live in Michigan.

– They came after Tucker Carlson, but I said nothing because I don't watch FOX News anymore.

History does repeat since the beginning of time. No empire lasts forever.

I found this a week ago and it explains sooooo much of what we are seeing here and in other western countries. The author died sometime in the 1980’s so he didn’t see what we are seeing today. He was right on.

I highly recommend reading this.

Never forget that Pence helped to toss Flynn overboard.

I'm convinced Pence set up Flynn to be fired up to and including a planted question in the TV interview that he used to convince Trump to fire him.

Was Pence brainwashed and/or bought by Fauci when they spent so much time together allegedly fixing the covid situation?

Attempted to read your link but it keeps trying to push new/unnecessary software so I’ll pass. PDF documents should not require any kind of supplementary download.

This article makes a good point. When are we going to stop being silent and just watching this happen?
