We live in interesting times, if by interesting, you mean FUBAR. Many of the world’s leaders lost their minds in recent years, and the people, too many of them, just followed along. But have things gone too far?
Here in the West, and the US in particular, the authoritarian tick is having fits. People guilty of little more than trespassing (and most not even that) have been indefinitely detained. And now the FBI is comfortable raiding the home of a former president.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation raided the Mar-a-Lago home of Donald Trump. What happened? Did he complain to the local school board? That’s domestic terrorism, as is being patriotic, quoting the Founders, or having a Gadsden flag (if they need an excuse). What happens when the Pride and BLM flags become symbols of the same?

What? You don’t think that could never happen? That’s a mistake.
As each day passes, the list of suspect behavior by this Stasi arm of the DOJ grows longer, and there’s no reason to believe it won’t just abuse power because it can.
So, who holds them accountable?
In America, the US Congress has oversight, but under Democrat control, they have often ignored the law, twisted it, or dismissed it, invoking authority to punish political opponents, but they’ve broken fresh ground.
Neither political party has EVER violated the post-term immunity of former presidents that has distinguished America from every corrupt two-bit government pretending to be democratic while imprisoning their political opponents. It has been that guarantee that the has created the union of 50 states and secured the country’s politics would remain civil whereby the power was always a peaceful transition from one party to the other.
The Democrats have already declared war on America, but this is new, and some people are rightfully outraged but is it for the right reason?
Being me doing what I do with my spare time, people like to ask my opinion; What do you think about the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago?
My response is simple.
Regardless of political preference, if you sit idle or condone this, you set a dangerous precedent. Any or every future government will use its police powers to intimidate or punish political opponents on a whim, including former Presidents. And for any reason they can imagine.
Police state road rage got Obama donor and Epstein Lawyer, Magistrate Bruce Reinhart, to sign THE warrant. Does he know he’ll be immortalized in history for it as the “judge” who opened the door on this Pandora’s political box?
Maybe this would be a good time to ask your candidates for Congress; what would the FBI find if it raided your home? What would a forensic IRS audit uncover? How good would that look on local or national television?

You just happen to be on “the wrong side” of an issue, a debate, an opinion, or registered to the wrong political party. And remember, all you have to do is appear to refuse to cooperate (they get to decide what that means), and you can be arrested and detained for process crimes while they figure out how else they could charge you.
How about you, average citizen? Are you prepared for a world where Government Agents randomly invade homes because of ideological or political leanings, an opinion, or a tweet?
And don’t assume that your side will be in power in perpetuity and you have nothing to fear. History is top-heavy with examples of why that’s the opposite of what happens when this sort of behavior goes unchallenged for too long. It’s why they try not to teach it.
Is anyone out there prepared to question the motivations of the FBI and their handlers? It’s the job of Congress, so everyone running for those offices should be asked their opinion (The Government Integrity Project has two opportunities in NH, by the way. Sat. Aug 13th, and Sunday, Aug 14th.)

What are your thoughts about the raid on Mr. Trump’s home, candidate for Congress? Is this the “justice” system we deserve the FBI America needs or wants, and if so, why? If not, what are you (future member of Congress) prepared to do about it?
If you want to be in Congress, what’s your plan?
