Really?

And what are we gonna do about it?

What CAN we even do about it?

Like Cuba.
Like Venezuela.
Like China.
Like the old Soviet Union.

We the people are helpless.

“We the people are helpless.”

We aren’t any more helpless than our forefathers were.

That's the question I keep asking. Everybody says "fight," but nobody says how. One by one, every means of fighting back has been taken from us.

No we are not.

We have the second amendment.

But are we willing to use it before they take it away from us?

So you could get an “I Surrender” bumper sticker.
Heck, with that attitude you could start to sell those bumper stickers.
T-shirts?
Towels! That would be GREAT! Throw in the towel that says: “I Surrender”
Loser talk alert!

Im not sure what we can do about Trump’s indictment. I hope some brave patriots figure out what we should do.

But there are some encouraging signs in other issues, a lot of states are figuring out the whole 10th Amendment and nullification thing.. and doing some great things. One example, several states are passing laws to ban any CBDC, and also to allow gold and silver as legal tender. Some states clamping down on DEI garbage and the trans agenda.

I think if our country is going to avoid despotism or civil war, it will be due to the red states stepping up and using their constitutional rights to stop tyrranny.

Scroll down the page to the blog and there are a number of very encouraging developments!

All the countries you named had defenseless populations.

Here in America, there's probably more guns than people.

I dare them to try.

What can we do?
You mean right now????

How about today, or tomorrow, when you go to the store, if it says point of origin New York, you put it back on the shelf.

If you are a purchasing agent, and you buy stuff for your company that comes out of New York, solicit bids from other states for the same type of product.

If you have planned a vacation, don’t go to New York.

In other words, write the whole state off.

What CAN we even do about it?

Some thoughts.

1) Skip the donations. President Trump has plenty of money to defend himself. Hundreds of millions of dollars.

2) When it comes up in conversation, emphasize this is NOT about President Trump's personal moral conduct. That is a separate issue. He's not being charged for that.

3) What should be emphasized is that this indictment is about extreme prosecutorial discretion and how this bodes poorly for the US justice system as a whole. That's an issue that dwarfs President Trump's indictment.

4) What is really comes down to the weaponizing FedGov and StateGov based on ideology. The prefect example - the National School Boards Association and their involvement with DOJ regarding parents.

5) Pray the President Trump gets good lawyers that are experienced in criminal law. No more clown cars of attorneys that cost him a lot in his legal challenges in 2020.

I really believe that word of mouth is what people can do bring light to what is happening - that more and more government agencies are being weaponized. Whatever people think about President Trump, this indictment is ridiculous.
