The citizens of America have gotten too soft. They have allowed themselves to be duped into believing that something like communism could never take hold in America. It not only can and it has a stranglehold on our schools, businesses, and our government. Trump wanted to give us back our government and that is why the left’s heads were exploding. I came across an excellent article by Paul Engel, a fellow writer on NewsWithViews.com which you can read here.[1]
He discusses what freedom is, explains what has happened to us that has restricted us in so many ways, and gives direction as to what we need to do to get back on track. Excellent article!
We were founded to be free to do and say what we want. Of course, this is all within reason. The government we were given allows us to speak our minds, and have differences with others without the fear of the government taking us away never to be seen or heard of again. If we don’t like what the government is doing we can address that and demand a change if necessary. Our 1st Amendment gives us the right “to petition the government for a redress of grievances.” But when parents confronted the school boards about the pornographic trash, they were allowing our children to access, we were labeled domestic terrorists. On Monday, Garland sent a memo to the federal law enforcement agency directing it to coordinate with the nation’s 14,000 school districts. This action comes after the Biden administration received a plea from the National School Boards Association (NSBA) to protect schools from the “imminent threat” of parents sending “threatening letters and cyberbullying” school officials. The association considers such activities to be akin to “domestic terrorism.”
“As these acts of malice, violence, and threats against public school officials have increased, the classification of these heinous actions could be the equivalent to a form of domestic terrorism and hate crimes,” wrote the NSBA.
Has some great number of teachers, principals, and district leaders come under violent attack? Of course not. What both the Justice Department and the concerned school boards are really talking about it is the increased number of recent community meetings that have featured angry feedback from parents. These parents are sick of COVID-19 mitigation efforts that have relegated actual students to afterthought status within the education department: the farce of virtual learning, mandatory closure when asymptomatic cases are detected, ceaseless masking.[2]
These actions are the actions of a communist government, not a free and sovereign nation. The House passed this week a Parents Bill of Rights bill pointing out the obvious rights that parents have over their children and denying school unions a free hand to do what they want. All democrats voted against the bill and one Democrat even stated that if the bill did not pass “can we finally classify parents as domestic terrorists?” Seriously? When did the democrats decide that the government has more rights over a child than the parents?
Another little aspect of how communism has crept into our government is our lack of free speech. We can say it, write it, and post it, but Big Tech decides who, if anybody, gets to see it. “Thousands of pages of documents have exposed a censorship campaign both unprecedented and formerly unimagined in scale and in scope,” said Younes.
We also heard today from the attorney general of Missouri; an excerpt follows:
In May, we filed a landmark lawsuit against top ranking Biden Administration officials for colluding with social media companies to censor free speech. We have already received documents that show their cozy relationship, and now we’re demanding more.
In July of 2022, MO and LA served discovery requests and third-party subpoenas, demanding documents from top-ranking Biden Administration officials and social media companies over their alleged collusion to suppress freedom of speech.
The Department of Justice is refusing to produce communications between the most senior officials and social media companies – yesterday we filed a joint petition asking the Court to compel them to produce those documents.
Here’s what we know so far. DOJ identified 45 federal officials who have interacted with social media companies on misinformation.[3]
Our Constitution gives us the right to free speech but this administration has decided to take on the role of determining if that speech is ‘misinformation’. I have found that if it doesn’t line up with what the administration is pushing, then it is misinformation. I have also found that 98% of what the administration classifies as ‘correct’ information is actually misinformation. Case in point, COVID vaccines stop you from getting COVID. COVID vaccines are safe. I could write a book on how unsafe that jab is. How about global warming? Government studies have even shown that the planet has not warmed in the last 18 years but Biden wants to spend billions on getting America to a net-zero carbon position. That will be impossible but they plow ahead with it anyway not caring how many people are hurt in the process.
As you have heard recently Biden wants 96% of gas stoves eliminated. I have not found in the Constitution where the federal government has the right to control what kind of stove we have. He is also after our washing machines. I understand that the new design will take longer to wash and won’t clean as well. Typical democrat policy. His new target is our air conditioning units. I have not found the provision for that in the Constitution either.
This is what happens when we let the government have its way. We have forgotten and many have never been taught that the government gets its power from the people. The Constitution is a document that tells the government what it can do not a document that lets the government tell us what to do.
There is a guy out there that is trying to put together a Constitutional Convention which is allowed in Article V of the Constitution. Dumb idea because he has a complete rewrite of the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Seriously dumb. We already have the best government document ever designed by man, with the help of Holy Spirit, why change it? We just need to get people who will follow that Constitution. It is what made us the greatest nation in the world and if we get back to it we will regain that title.
The creep towards communism has been slow but it has to come to a complete stop and the people that are pushing us down that road must be removed from government. Remember there are about 70 members of Congress, all in the Democrat Party but one, that belong to the Democrat Socialists of America. Joe McCarthy tried to warn us after WWII that they were infiltrating our news organizations, Hollywood, big businesses, and everywhere they could get a foothold. He was mocked but who is laughing now?
We either wake up or we will be where Klaus Schwab wants us in 2030, owning nothing. For me, that dog don’t hunt.
