DESERVES A REPEAT-—We, the people, cannot trust any human being with this power,
and especially not the Biden tyrannical cabal of scumbags who inhabit the government now.

Yes. It has been a lesson I had to learn, that there are certain things our fellow humans cannot be trusted with. The temptation for power and money is too great for many.

Biden DOJ Collects List of Every Person Who Followed,
Retweeted or Mentioned Donald Trump on Twitter
The Western Journal ^ | November 29, 2023 | Randy DeSoto
FR Posted on 11/29/2023, 10:55:58 PM by Robwin

Court documents released Monday by the Justice Department show that special counsel Jack Smith successfully obtained access to everyone who liked, retweeted or mentioned Donald Trump on Twitter, now known as X.

The search warrant, issued in January by the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, is part of Smith’s investigation into Trump’s actions leading up to the Capitol incursion of Jan. 6, 2021.

The release of the documents came as a result of a lawsuit brought by a consortium of media organizations seeking to bring sunlight to the special counsel’s probe into Trump, the New York Post reported.

As we’ve seen w/ Biden’s using our justice system against Trump.....
<><>every court ruling that allows the lawless Biden government to operate above the rule of law,
<><>every piece of Democrat legislation that limits our freedoms,
<><>and every act of Biden and family’s wrongdoing that goes unpunished,
<><>conditions us to a Democrat-controlled govt in which the Constitution means nothing.

Any attempt by the government to encroach upon the citizenry’s privacy rights or establish a system by which the populace can be targeted, tracked, monitored and singled out must be met with extreme caution.

“Biden’s ‘gotcha’ Dragnet surveillance” exemplified by Biden’s criminalization of whatever he doesnt like, is nothing more than a govt fishing expedition, a blatant attempt to circumvent the Fourth Amendment’s warrant requirement and Constitutional prohibition on unreasonable searches and seizures.

Liberals with their pretend mandate, their insistence that classes do not exist and that we are all the same is a naive and dishonest premise from which to govern ... even if they hadn't violated all known laws and precedents getting into the WH!

No surprise here.

The Patriot Act, rushed into Law after 9-11 needs to be changed. There are too many abuses of privacy allowed.

I am not surprised that Obama, in the White Hut, started the abuse of the Fourth Amendment.

I have long come to the conclusion is that the Left is using the equivalent of Andrew Jackson's famous quote: "Marshall made his decision, now let him enforce it."

They would say: "People who oppose us on Constitutional grounds have made their decisions, now let them enforce them."

When you realize they have fully weaponized and harnessed the enforcement mechanisms, as well as the mechanisms utilized to inform the publics as well that something is amiss, you understand just how evil and yes, effective they are.

Look at immigration. "You don't like that we are blatantly ignoring laws enacted via legal legislation mechanisms? Stop us."

Look at aid to Ukraine. "You don't like that we are blatantly ignoring laws enacted via legal legislation mechanisms? Stop us." Look at Student Loans. "You don't like that we are blatantly ignoring laws enacted via legal legislation mechanisms? Stop us." They have realized since 2008, that nobody is going to stop them.

FR POST——54 Bipartisan Lawmakers Urge Speaker Johnson Not
to Slip “Deep State Surveillance Authorization” in Defense Bill

If a govt organization is suspected of having political bias, that’s unconstitutional.

The US government cannot support that w/ tax dollars.

And this: a very pertinent point regarding the “outsourcing of censorship.”

NDAA SECTION 1532 “That which government is
constitutionally prohibited from doing, it cannot
contract with others to do.”

Let’s ensure that Section 1532 is preserved in the final version of the NDAA.

For those who may not know, Eric Blair, not “Erik,”used a “Pen Name” when he wrote his great books.

The name? George Orwell.

When I was at Air Intelligence Agency as a JAG, Title 50 required us to do a report on EVERY event that resulted in potential surveillance, even unintentional, of a “US person”. I don’t know that there are enough personnel in the service to keep up with it today.

Biden’s DHS Scrubs YouTube of Censorship Video
Encouraging We, the People Report Family Members
foundationforfreedomonline.com ^ | November 28, 2023 | by Mike Benz
Posted on 11/30/2023, 12:49:37 PM by Red Badger

Biden’s DHS cybersecurity agency is burying evidence of its prior efforts to encourage the domestic censorship of US citizens online, silently deleting a dystopian video it published in 2021 instructing children to report their own family members to Facebook for “Covid disinformation.” In August 2022, Foundation for Freedom Online (FFO) published a report that highlighted a particularly troubling cartoon video released by the DHS’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), where CISA encourages a young woman to report a family member to Facebook, after a post claiming “Covid-19 is no worse than the flu.” FFO archived and presented clips from the video below

The tenacity of our tyrannical communist rulers in imposing more & more tyranny is unmatched by those seeking (supposedly) to protect our Constitutional freedoms & liberties...

Just another example of how the stinking communist bastards continue to run roughshod over the servile Aamerican serfs...

There are no limits to tyranny...
There is no end in sight!
