There are a lot of people out there trying to divide Americans and undermine the institutions and norms that bind us together.
The family, the church, the schools, the rule of law, Free
Speech, free elections, limited government, civil society, and a free press are
all foundational elements of our nation.
Destroy enough of them and the whole system collapses.
The church and family collapsed years ago. Schools have been in a steep decline since
the creation of the Department of Education.
We are currently witnessing the destruction of the rest of our institutions.
The Rule of Law is dead.
When your political affiliation dictates the legal action and outcomes
against you we cannot reply on the rule of law. We have entered the era of the Rule of Men. This power is fun when your side is in control. You can look away when the FBI falsifies documents. You can chuckle when 75 year old Trump associates
are raided and railroaded. You might
even grin when the charges are dropped against rioters on your side and the
opposing rioters are detained indefinitely without charges. You might even think that its fun to impeach
a President over policy differences while ignoring blatant crimes committed by
your favored candidate. But you won’t
like it as much when the tables are turned.
Free Speech is dead.
The government and Big Tech are conspiring to silence speech they do not
like while the traditional defenders of individual liberties cheer them
on. Stories that are damaging to the
powerful are squashed. People that speak
out are banned and banished.
Free elections are on life support. Ballot harvesting, mail
in voting, and many other schemes make fraud possible on a scale that was never
before possible. Even if the reports of
fraud are overstated, why are the results of audits being hidden? Where are the records? Why is no one asking
questions about statistically impossible voting data? Losing faith in the election results in fatal
to the American experiment.
Limited Government is THE founding principle of the
Constitution. The entire document lays
out the limited, enumerated powers of the Federal government. That concept is dead. The Federal government has unlimited,
arbitrary power. The IRS decides who
gets to organize political groups and who does not. The CDC decides if landlords can collect rent. The OSHA decides what medical treatments you
must receive. The government can ‘pass’
laws that no one voted for using parliamentary tricks and legerdemain. The ATF can arbitrarily change rules to make
millions of law-abiding citizens into felons.
The Army Corps of Engineers claims control over every puddle and pond in
the country with no legal authority to do so. The Congress has stopped passing laws and simply
votes on massive spending bills that no one can read before they are passed. The President claims unlimited power through
Executive Order. We live in a dictatorship of the Bureaucracy.
Civil society is on its death bed. We no longer respect each other. We no longer see each other as fellow Americans.
We actively hate each other. The outpouring of invective when people die
is appalling. The fact that some
Americans wish other Americans dead simply because they have different
opinions. The institutions that allowed us to come together
across political lines are all dead or dying.
The Free Press is not only dead, its zombie corpse is
actively trying to destroy all the other foundational structures in America. Trust in the press is near zero. They have gone from slanting the news to pure propaganda.
They used to influence public opinion by
covering certain stories and downplaying others. Now they simply lie about everything. From Russia gate, to the Covington School
kids, to Kids in Cages, to whipping Haitians, every story peddled by the press
is a brazen lie. They not only do not
serve their Constitutional role as a check on political corruption, they are
actively aiding and abetting that corruption.
Does anyone honestly believe that Hunter Biden’s paintings selling to anonymous buyers is not worthy of
investigative reporting?
You can’t run a country this way. The ties that bind us together are broken or severely
frayed.
If you are cheering for the people that are destroying our
country, well, you aren’t going to like what comes next.
