… the federal government has not been a faithful defender of individual rights. It has not been a trustworthy custodian of public funds. It has not lived up to expectations of limited government as it was charged with at the passage of the charter. It has not sought the security and safety of its people, but has been willing to subject them to unnecessary dangers such as diseases, crime and corruption in favor of optics. The federal government has allowed and even encouraged a rogue element within its bureaucracy to attempt and continue a coup to overturn the will of the people. It has not sought equality before the law or due process for the people, but has afforded it in the extreme to government employees. It has not faithfully defended its borders, a foundational purpose for its creation. It has tolerated and encouraged a cultural war on its own people, dividing them, pitting them against each other as a means of diverting the public attention from their corruption and fiscal irresponsibility. It has come to look upon the source of its power, wealth and success, the people, as mere tax slaves.
And I would emphasize that this ins’t due to malfeasance – this isn’t mere ineptitude. No, the motivations run deep, and they involve the destruction and terraforming of what was once a great country.

The government lied, “framed,” hid favorable evidence, and showed “contempt for the law at every turn” in their treatment of Michael Flynn, the retired three-star Army general and former Trump White House national security adviser.
Those charges were contained in a new filing in the government’s case against Flynn. And his attorney, Sidney Powell, was just getting started.
In the 27-page-filing, an add-on to her previous motions, Powell demanded charges be dropped against Flynn based on previously withheld exculpatory documents by the government and the IG report on FISA abuse.
Told you so. Repeatedly. And as for his exchanges with Pence, I consider the VP to be part of the deep state. I repeat.
He knew all about the nefarious deeds of the deep state. He was in a position to shine light on the deep state. To the deep state, he was a danger they couldn’t suffer. So the FBI lied, altered his testimony, and conspired to frame him. As a consequence, he has almost bankrupted himself with legal costs.
He knew who started the chaos in Libya, how the deep state worked, about Brownstone operations conducted by the deep state, etc., etc., etc. They couldn’t allow him to see the light of day. In fact, he’d better watch his six.
Oh. And don’t ever talk to the police, be they local or FedGov.

Despite things not working out the way the governor ginned up all that fear for, reality hardly stopped his political allies from doing what they do best, springboarding off his lie and adding whoppers of their own.
“Annual gun lobby day protest in Richmond drew large numbers of white nationalists, militias, and racist conspiracy theorists this year,” the ever-odious Rep. Don Beyer tweeted. “Neo-Nazis tried to use this rally to launch violent attacks. Trump’s symbolism and memories of Charlottesville are vivid in many minds today.”
Taking their cue on what to amplify, NBC was representative of the rest of the DSM (Duranty/Streicher Media), breathlessly planting seeds like:
“On far-right corners of the internet, some have said the rally will accelerate a ‘race war.’”
No one I know said something like that. Being a bit dramatic, are we? Open carry is legal in Virginia (it won’t be if the communists get their way), so no law was broken, no fights broke out, no violence ensued, and not a single negligent discharge occurred out of 30,000 firearms (it would be good for the police to take a page from their book).
Don’t you know the progs just hate that?

Allies are crucial in this war, but the right has no understanding of how to make an alliance, with whom to make it, or what has to be done to sustain it. The right cannot even ally itself with itself.
Yea. As I’ve been trying to say over these past few weeks. If you don’t get past this “us four and no more” philosophy,” if you don’t learn not to “major on the minors,” you’ll get squashed like a bug in the road.
Honestly, with the disagreeable nature of gun owners lately, I wondering whether they will be pounding in anger on the keyboard until they’re picked up to ride the rail cars, and inside the rail car, if they’ll be bickering over who sits where.
There is no reason for the communists to worry. They have no unified opposition.

Virginia was only the beginning. So here’s the question. Are patriots going to fondle their rifles, hide behind nom de guerres, and claim they’re going to do something about this, while they’re really preparing to be picked off one by one, or are they going to involve themselves in the local, county and state political process?
Against the many, loud, repeated claims that politics yields nothing of any benefit, I once again note that politics is war. See it that way or be run over. Apparently, the progs know it as war, and they think it’s worth their energy and effort. Do you?
The only saving grace in all of this is that the NRA Wine Club is rocking!

News from Virginia.
Thousands flooded the surrounding streets of the Capitol Monday for a gun-rights rally, however, some locals in the area say the roads are the cleanest they’ve seen in quite some time.
There’s a reason for that, says Matthew Keisling, a protester who made sure that once he shared his message, he went above and beyond to protect it.
“I’ve been in the area when there have been other protests and demonstrations and people leave a lot of trash behind and it waters down the message,” Keisling said.
Good. It’s the right and decent thing to do. If you pack it in, pack it out, and make sure to pack anything else you see out.
This leaves a good impression on impressionable people, regardless of what it does or doesn’t do for the communists.

The question after reading this becomes: What should be done, if anything?
It’s difficult to imagine a situation where government interference in Big Tech is going to have the desired outcome. The result might be more and greater censorship than existed before. However, it is worth noting that Sen. Ted Cruz, not exactly known as a proponent of Big Government, has been at the forefront of attempts to hold Big Tech accountable for its censorship of conservative voices on the Internet.
But it’s quite possible that new laws and regulations are not required. What is instead required is a more rigorous enforcement of the laws and regulations that are already on the books. To wit: Are Facebook, Twitter and YouTube content-neutral platforms or are they editorial platforms? If the former, then it would seem that their case for being able to censor legal speech on their platforms is legally flimsy. If the latter, then they are responsible for everything posted on their platforms by every user. Similarly, if Google is intentionally manipulating its results to yield a politicized result, that is likely in violation of existing telecommunications statutes.
The American shift from capitalism to corporatism has had dire unintended consequences: Power has coalesced in both Washington, D.C. and many tech and media companies, such that the latter can undermine American rights and manipulate American political opinion with impunity, while the former abdicates its oath to defend the U.S. Constitution against all enemies, both foreign and domestic.
I do have one quibble. I don’t think corporatism + government creating power coalescence in the viper pit known as D.C. is unintended. I think it’s all quite intentional.

From reddit/firearms, this picture of the Virginia capitol.

I don’t believe in caging men. I’ve said it before in the context of imprisonment. I don’t believe in incarceration and rehabilitation, nor prison camps of any sort.
If a man has committed a crime worthy of death (e.g., rape, murder or kidnapping), then put him to death. If he has stolen from you, he becomes your slave until the debt is paid. There is no such thing as a “debt to society.” Debts are to individuals, not groups. That’s the Biblical model. There isn’t a model better than that.
What the democrats are doing in Virginia is caging men, just like incarceration. Democrats believe in caging men. And most republicans too.
