Hypocritical Western victors squander freedom in favor of East German surveillance.
For Americans who cherish self-government, free speech, and personal liberty, the reality of today's America is jolting. How can Hillary Clinton's campaign, Barack Obama's FBI, and an assortment of sordid Intelligence Community actors conspire to frame Donald Trump as a Russian spy in a veritable coup d'état without suffering any legal consequences? How can the IRS target Americans for their political viewpoints and be rewarded with bigger budgets and more armed agents? How can the FBI illegally spy on a presidential campaign, target parents concerned over the content of their children's public education, and label half of America "extremists," and not be disbanded? How can the Department of (in)Justice seek to punish Americans' speech and religious faith as impermissible expressions of "hate" and deprive Americans of their Second Amendment protections without being immediately defunded as a threat to the Bill of Rights? How can the State Department lecture regimes around the world about violently quelling political dissent and violating human rights when thousands of Americans who protested for fair elections have been persecuted as "insurrectionists," denied impartial justice, and imprisoned for having "incorrect" beliefs? These are not the actions of any "free" nation and are shockingly antithetical to America's foundations in liberty.
From this perspective, it seems apparent that the American government has not so quietly declared war on the American people. Why? Because it has abandoned any effort at preserving the qualities of its charter that once distinguished the American system as "exceptional" from all others — chiefly its constitutional framework empowering individual citizens and states while severely limiting centralized authority from ever infringing Americans' inalienable rights and liberties. This idea — that legitimate political power can arise only from the people — had been an invaluable guardrail...

The corruption is speeding up. They don’t care that people see it.
Actually they WANT us to see it so as to instill fear of the government.
You are correct. Almost as if the Chinese were running things here. Oh, wait....
the DEATH of America is solely due to the backstabbing
treasonous GOP helping the DNC and CCP.
The GOP should have been eliminated years ago.
“Actually they WANT us to see it so as to instill fear of the government.”
Good point - 15 years ago, we could have Tea Party rallies, now we’re so scared that even talking about rallies gets people saying “don’t go, there will be feds everywhere” - which is likely true, but it’s even easier if the feds don’t have to dress in their costumes to try to look MAGA.
It’s all a result of the ‘necessary’ deep state created for the Cold War. Now we have a shadow government - unelected, unaccountable, unconstitutional, unable to be removed from power.
“It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop... ever, until you are dead!”
If only we had listened to Patton and sent the tanks on to Moscow.
Yes it does. The bigotry has been there forever...this is somehthing else!
The government is now a full-blown corrupt criminal enterprise. The crooks don’t want to return power to the people otherwise there would be a ‘Manhattan Project’ to return to single-day voting with only paper ballots. Their non-interest in addressing this matter tells you how pleased and smug they are to have usurped the power of those they have sworn to serve.
“Now we have a shadow government - unelected, unaccountable, unconstitutional, unable to be removed from power.”
We know who they are. They are in in plain sight. Soros, Bloomburg, Hansjorg Wyss, Sulzberger etc. They are the financiers, the money bundlers, the source of all evil in the world.
They are the Golden Calf puppet masters. Their membership is in the thousands, with tentacles in every federal agency.
The Stasi in east Germany existed for 40 years. Their archives consist of between 900 million and 1 billion pages of information. Back of the envelope math, conservatively, the NSA and CIA collect that information on Americans every two days. We are the most pervasive domestic spying nation in human history. The Stasi and Stalin never dreamed of such power. A grandma sitting by the stairs noting comings and goings seems almost quaint.
“Blue” city Democrat dystopias destroy themselves! There’s nothing happening today that doesn’t have a Bible parallel.
The Bible says that God caused Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon (Daniel 4:28-33) to become insane, eat grass like an ox and live like an animal for seven years as punishment for his arrogance and rebellion.
The “Woke” certainly are arrogant, rebellious, insane, Godless and acting like animals, as the “Blue” cities, colleges and areas they rule sink into lunacy, crime, violence and madness. The leaders in these “Blue” places allow criminals to run wild, the homeless suffering the bondage of drugs and mental illness to live in the streets indeed like animals, once great cities now covered in filth, needles, crime, economic decline and chaos.
Has God “cancelled” the minds of the “Woke” as He did Nebuchadnezzar? After seven years God restored Nebuchadnezzar’s mind (Daniel 4:34-37) and the king then humbled himself and praised God, will America’s “Woke” gain its’ sanity and return to the Lord? Prayers they (we?) shall or destruction will be America’s bitter fruit. God Bless!
I think the American people are just plain tired. All are exhausted by everything that has happened in the last few years. We all realize whatever we read that gets our heartrate up will be old news tomorrow. We know that when the government does wrong we will all be told “oh, that’s been debunked” without any proof that that is true. We are suppose to just believe it. You know...”move on, nothing to see here”. We know that the folks on the left are teflon and nothing they do wrong will stick to them, but now on the right it is just the opposite. We all know the problems, we just don’t know where to go from here.
