With the recent seizure warrants for Republicans just after the Trump raid, one has to wonder what the end game is. At what point is the government too powerful? The true answer is that happened a long time ago. The original design of the presidency was to be a commander in chief, primarily in foreign affairs. He was to be VERY limited in power and at the service of the people through elected leaders. The elected leaders were to listen to the people and legislate accordingly. NONE of this has happened in quite some time.
I get searching one’s home if there’s reason to believe he has committed a federal offense. I have no problem with that. But there’s more than enough proof to have already searched Hillary Clinton’s home, Hunter Biden’s home, Anthony Fauci’s home, and why is no one asking for the Epstein black book that Maxwell has or knows the whereabouts? If they would have already raided their homes, this wouldn’t be a problem at all.
If someone believes for a minute that this attack on Republicans wouldn’t happen exactly the same way against Democrats, you haven’t been paying attention. Democrats and Republicans are in the same arena. The arena where the only thing they really care about is keeping office and lining their pockets. They prove this time and again. I’m not a cynic. Quite the opposite. But this is so clearly obvious, it’s impossible to ignore.
Some say we are headed towards another civil war, “but this time it will be class warfare.” It will be civil war, but it will be the people versus the government. The government has reached proportions of tyranny never before seen in our country’s history. Each presidency, there is an abuse of power. Every. Single. President has abused their power. None more than the current, or at least the puppeteers pulling the strings behind the scenes (I have a terrible memory, but if I shake your hand, I’m not going to forget I shook your hand 2 seconds later). They have all used executive power to basically write law. The most recent abuse of power is to continue the state of emergency so they can circumvent laws and rules.
I’m not that fearful though. For one, the military swear an oath to the Constitution, not the presidency. Also, this resembles the feeling people had when the British were all but forcing their brand of British East India Company tea on the colonies. So they dumped what would be $1M in today’s money worth of tea into the harbor. The people will have had enough at some point and throw something into the harbor. Tyranny never lasts in a republic. It’s definitely here, but it won’t last. Besides, I don’t follow a donkey or an elephant. I follow a Lamb.
Stay Classy GP!
