"Exile" conjures images of banished figures like Napoleon, who languished on the island of Elba, rendered powerless by isolation.
Groups of people considered troublemakers also have been exiled from their lands. Diasporas of "undesirables" like the Jews have been a constant in the history of nations whose rulers wanted to be rid of what they considered indigestible elements.
Exile within one's own country by a totalitarian regime has been less noted.
For such an enterprise, we may look at Vichy France, which was under the thrall and control of a fascist political system imported by Germany but facilitated by French citizens. Non-conformists found themselves termed by Charles Maurras as "internal foreigners," exiled within their own country. Measures favored by an imported ideology were enacted against them.
Anyone familiar with the actions of the Vichy government under orders from a foreign power notes its capitulation to Nazi policies on race. Many of the "internal foreigners" were Jews, who soon were exiled from the administration, armed forces, entertainment, arts, media, and most professions. French police confiscated phones and radios while establishing curfews and prohibiting travel.

We’re going to have to get off our butts and get out in the streets. F the commies.
1. Convention of States
2. Throw them all out even the “so-called” good ones and start over with a new generation that’s not beholden as much to the money to compromised once they reach D.C.
The problem is the swamp corrupts them quickly. We will have to address the money that corrupts them in the convention.
Lobbyists need to go. The only people that should influence them are the voters.
If a Congressman or Senator wants to submit legislation they need to write their own bills and their should be a limit on length. No bill should have attachments that have nothing to do with the bill that is written.
Those things would help. But worthless if the elections can be stolen.
They win when no one demands prosecution for destruction of Property during these “protests”,
They win when no one demands equal treatment for their the protesters of January 6, 2021. We let them persecute participants beyond reason. TPTB mean to make examples of them to us all.
All federal elections are to be fully audited within a week or two after the election. The candidates and the staff along with the public are able to see the auditing process as it goes along
And how do we return to the rule of law when the people with guns called police, and no matter how “good” these people are, immediately start following the orders of the totalitarians just so they can continue to receive their paycheck and thus, can survive themselves and not be subject to the totalitarian’s reprisals?
The song remains the same
“Exile within one’s own country by a totalitarian regime ...”
That’s ‘occupation’... or a Warsaw ghetto situation. Yup-that’s what we have now!
France hated the Jews as much as anywhere in Eastern Europe. They covered it up well, but during Vichy, the term “Juif” was everywhere.
You and your family would be physically attacked by AntifaBLM, arrested, held without bail, fired from your job, have your bank account closed, your house vandalized, and so forth.
How?
As others have said. Eliminate lobbyists for starters.
Once again, how?
