It is important to remember that the in-your-face corruption we are seeing from our government "Institutions" didn't just pop up over the last year or two. It has been in the shadows, metastasizing unchecked, for many years. It is just recently that the traitors and domestic enemies among us either feel emboldened enough to not care that they are confirming half the Country's worst fears, or there is a rather rigid timeline that must be adhered to in order to reach the end goal of Tyranny and one world governance.
Either way, the time to clutch our pearls and tsk-tsk is WAY past. What we have seen over the last twelve months, particularly last week, is a flat-out Call to Action.
No - I don't know what that needs to look like. I believe a good start would be a Declaration of Economic Secession by numerous Southern States, coupled with a very public statement that each of those States is henceforth asserting their Sovereignty guaranteed by the Constitution and will no longer obey or honor ANY directives, regulations or laws issued by the Federal "government." An immediate HALT of any and all tax receipts collected in-state being sent to DC is an excellent first NON-VIOLENT step to show our "overlords" that we are serious.
C'mon Ron and Greg - let's get this party started...
It seems, at least based on my conversations with folks ‘round these parts, the outrage is not that the FBI raided a former president’s personal home. The outrage stems from the fact that the AG had the audacity to say “equal justice for everyone” with a straight face, while the country knows the track record of turning a blind eye to Hillary, Hunter, Nancy, Brandon etc. If the real charge is mis-handling of classified docs, why was nothing done about Hillary’s decidedly non secure server with so many classified emails? Or the multitude of classified docs on Hunter’s laptop? Etc, etc,etc...
The DOJ’s credibility & supposed “equal” treatment has been tossed out the window.
The leaders of the oppressive New World Order are not creating a dream world for themselves, only the people who they depend on for protection. The ones you need to protect you have the power to destroy you. There is a fusion process developed in Britain by a company, "First Light", which uses a high speed fuel projectile to cause fusion, and has estimated a 15 mega watt pilot plant to be ready in early 2030's.
Mr. Trump has proved that he is not to be trusted. He lies. He cheats. He defrauds. He grabs women by their privates. He is a racist. He tried to steal a presidential election. He encouraged a violent overthrow of the rule of law in our the capitol.
Why on earth would the FBI or AG trust him to voluntarily turn over sensitive documents that might incriminate him by politely asking him to do so? A warrant and physical presence at Mar a Largo by investigators was necessary to obtain documents as evidence of illegal activities by Mr. Trump. By its nature, a warrant is not proof of anything, but seeks proof of something suspected.
Bill, please do not side with Mr. Trump without collecting some evidence of his innocence. Mr. Trump is not to be taken lightly. He has plans that he wishes to implement. Some of those plans do not recognize our Constitution as applicable to him. Prima facie evidence suggests that Mr. Trump has engaged in criminal behavior. Searching his residence is well within being reasonable and prudent.
When one has on numerous occasions engaged in blatant acts of commission and omission in the course of business and government, it can reasonably be assumed that evidence exists in his private residence that prove he is culpable.
So, please stop invoking "presumption of incense" in Mr. Trump's case. Probable cause is evident with Mr. Trump. He is guilty of far more than he will ever be convicted. Still, it is important to bring his machinations into the light of day. If his constituent base is made aware of his culpability then perhaps they will refrain from following him blindly and giving him the power to destroy our democracy.
You need one critical ingredient in order to devolve into a Banana Republic. That my friends would be useful idiots. Lucky for us we have them in spades in the good old USSA :-)
Well we can't complain about a lack of transparency. The U.S. Government and it's assorted Alphabet Agencies know exactly who they are and are acting accordingly. For those late to party; welcome to the Banana Republic! Need to add the word Disappeared to your vocabulary :-)
I think there is a much more descriptive and appropriate "river" than either the Rubicon or the "Rio de la Plata".
It is the drainage channel between the city of Olongapo and the Naval Base in Subic Bay. We, the sailors, called it "$h!t River" as it drained and collected the city's raw sewage whenever it rained. And it rained all the time in the Philippines.
This was in the era of President Marcos - a dictator by any definition. And the 'River' was the last place of refuge for the diseased sex workers of Olongapo. When they could no longer be treated and cured with American medicines by Navy Corpsmen, they lost their "clean" cards and were discharged from their places of employment. As they struggled to live, they ended up riding in small wooden canoes with a small boy manning the rudder and paddle to maintain station keeping, and another small boy (or girl) to recover missed coins. We used to toss our spare Philippine coins to the dressed up diseased girls as we drunkenly staggered across the bridge to the Naval Base main gate. When we missed the canoes, a kid would jump into the $h!t filled river to retrieve the coin before it completely disappeared. Life expectancy once these children and former sex workers found themselves on the River was about 6 months.
And Corruption - the Philippine police, military, regional and city governments were more corrupt and compromised than any (former) U.S. government agency. Until today's DOJ and FBI.
At least in the PI everybody openly admitted their corruption as government employees. And we all paid a small price for security and a couple of Corpsmen to conduct weekly disease checks on our hostesses.
There we at least knew who we were dealing with and what our options were in every situation. In the U.S., it appears that we are experiencing the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire - in exactly the same way. Seems Americans have forgotten George Santayana.
Bill: "Why not just ask for the files?" They did. FBI and Trump lawyers have been talking with each other for a long time. Then in June Trump's files at home were subpoenaed. No response.
Searching Mar-A-Lago wasn't a step toward bananafication. January 6 was.
Nail in the coffin? Not the search itself but the need for a search to retrieve top secret papers which no other president had ever taken home. No, Obama didn't. His papers are in the National Archives.
Bill,the bananafication started in after 9/11 when they took our freedom away by signing the Patriot act into law,and my understanding is every President since has renewed it.They didn't arrest Trump,but they would have arrested us(the Middle working Class) without reason,and legally could.None of the Presidents since Carter have truly had the American people in their agenda.
Gas prices are down, inflation is down, the stock market is green, global markets are up, real estate is booming, real estate interest rates reduced, the fed rate is on its way to a minor point hike, enough to keep stability at bay, the dollar is strong, gold is down, need I say more? 😂
Everything here is backwards, if you want to succeed, do the opposite of what everyone else is doing, you can’t make money at the race track betting chalk! 🤣
If I recall history correctly, then the dollar -- whether gold backed or not -- has been losing value ever since the Federal Reserve was created. What was it doing between 1914 and 1971 to cause this loss of purchasing power?
Once again, BB ties things together nicely.

Hey Bill, perhaps you should stick to money and history. Politics doesn't seem to fit you.

There is a better way than the Trump way. Find it.
