What am I talking about?  America, Americans, the government, government agencies, and the myriad of regulations, restrictions, mandates, usurpations on our constitutional rights and liberties, etc.  We are being inundated with things negative to our Freedom, yet people seem to tolerate it with limited pushback. 

Is there a breaking point where people will be pushed over the edge en masse?  I wonder.  I believe that there is either a breaking point, or our Republic will fade into obscurity, and totalitarianism and authoritarianism will prevail.  I hope that the breaking point unites people and, through the peaceful, legitimate pathway, evicts those seeking to control and restore us to a reasonable semblance of Constitutionalism and sanity. 

Our modern government seeks to control us through lies, distortions, misinformation, and illegitimate policies and laws.  Mark Twain, the humorist and often astute political mind, said, “It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble.  It’s what you know for sure ain’t so.”

I cannot fathom any possibility that the masses are so blind that they do not know that we are being lied to.  If they are, we are farther down the proverbial creek than I hoped.  Our society has been dumbed down for so long that they may actually believe the lies and rhetoric being spewed forth daily.  The media, educational system, pundits, activists, and politicians seem in lock-step with the agenda to destroy our Freedom and relegate us to servitude to the agenda of globalism and progressivism. 

Gaslighting is defined as: “1: psychological manipulation of a person usually over an extended period of time that causes the victim to question the validity of their own thoughts, perception of reality, or memories and typically leads to confusion, loss of confidence and self-esteem, uncertainty of one’s emotional or mental stability, and a dependency on the perpetrator.  2: the act or practice of grossly misleading someone, especially for one’s own advantage.”

We have been gaslighted for so long that one would think that the ire of the public would be at an epic level, but so often, I only hear the crickets, not objections.   In 2024, we face one of the most critical, if not the most crucial, elections in our nation’s history.  It is just eleven months away.  We have endured over three years of toxic liberalism, and the price we are paying and will pay makes it impossible to imagine everyone not irate! 

The election is tainted, based on history.  We are told that 76% (3 out of 4) American voters believe that the indictments against Donald Trump are politically motivated.   Barack Obama set everything in motion, and Joe Biden is pursuing the agenda irrationally that is shuddering our economy.  No, it has shuddered it. 

They have a demonstrated desire to reorient our economy from a system of free enterprise (capitalism) to what could be called a Command Economy.  What is a Command Economy?  It is a system where the central government dictates permissible levels of production and prices.  It is an essential component of the communist political system. 

Our current economy and the push of this administration, the Leftist, is eerily reminiscent of the failed economies of pre-war fascist Germany and socialist Great Britain after Winston Churchill.  It is easy to argue that the extreme far-left of the Democratic Party controls the agenda. 

I won’t delve into them, but the $1.9 trillion “American Rescue Plan” and the $1 trillion Infrastructure bill are destructive and dangerous.  The $280 billion CHIPS Act and the $1.2 trillion Inflation Reduction Act have all majorly contributed to our economic demise.  None of them are good for our Republic or our economy.  They are designed to prevent the Free Market from succeeding and force us into subservience to the federal government’s handouts.  No thanks, I prefer freedom!

When you add the incredibly inane and insane “New Green Deal,” which includes elements such as the UN’s desired reduction of meat consumed by Americans.  How much?  By 90% is their stated goal.  Forcing us to become Vegans is not what America is all about, and if they succeed in that adventure, what is to prevent them from encroaching on every other facet of life?

Along with all that is the invasion of over 8 million illegal immigrants or migrants, many with criminal records.  The incredible cost is unsustainable.  The cost is not only monetary, but increased health and safety risks are also imposing. 

We are being infected with the deadly DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Agenda).  It has permeated our medical profession, the military, and every sphere of society.  The WOKE culture is permeating much of our society, and we are being snow-flaked into obscurity.

Will we reach the tipping point as more and more find justifiable reasons to distrust the FBI and other governmental agencies?  What happens when those chickens come home to roost?  The revelations of fraud, deception, illegality, and political bias are astounding.

Over the past eight years, America’s premier law enforcement agency has been exposed and stands naked before anyone willing to take an honest look.  Some of the revelations include Crossfire Hurricane, entrapping useful idiots for political advantage (Whitmer kidnapping and January 6 defendants), and collusion with the DNC to pin their email server attack on the Russians and Donald Trump.  

It does not stop there; they have been exposed for hiding evidence of the Biden family’s corruption, hiding Hunter Biden’s laptop, obfuscating and perjuring before Congress (Seth Rich laptop testimony), and more.  They raided James O’Keefe’s home to retrieve the diary of Joe Biden’s daughter that was dangerous to Biden.  They continually violate our 1^st Amendment Rights, seeking to protect the Democrat narrative (Social Media Censorship).

When those charged with enforcing the law are proven to be corrupt, what can you trust?  The majority of Americans agree with Roger Stone, “There is a group of politicized thugs at the top of the FBI who are using the FBI as Joe Biden’s personal Gestapo.” 

The dirty agents exposed included Peter Strzok, Andrew McCabe, James Comey, Kevin Clinesmith, Stephen D’Antuono, and W. Jay Abbot.  Those are only a few; there are more!   The agency is corrupt at the top, and only God knows how deeply it runs!

I guess the motto of the agency should be changed:

• Fidelity – but only to the leftist ideology and agenda.
• Bravery – in subverting self-governance and implementing a Gestapo.
• Integrity – except when lies are more convenient and beneficial ideologically.

America, we are in trouble, and unless and until we wake from our slumber and unite to demand our Republic back, we will see conditions and corruption worsen.  The ball is in our court if we still have a court to play the game on.  What will we do?  What can we do?

May God help us, and I pray God bless America again!
