Democrats are seeking to cement permanent control of America. The modus operandi is the criminalization of the political opposition while they are hard at work, crippling the authority to which the opposition might appeal in defense of its rights.

Thomas Jefferson had words for this behavior.
- “All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.”
- “Tyranny is defined as that which is legal for the government but illegal for the citizenry.”
- “When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.”
- “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”
We are watching as American politics becomes a slow-motion car crash. Leftists in control of the Democrat party are attempting to criminalize their political opposition and weaponized the government against the people. We have Soviet-style show trials scheduled back to back to back, to back as they play“Show Me the Man, and I’ll Show You the Crime.” Cases brought against not only Donald Trump but anyone who has surrounded him.
It is very dangerous to the rule of law when we start allowing lawyers to be charged for interactions with their clients.
These zealous prosecutors may have differing motives for twisting and reaching with the law to hang a defendant, but when they have to reach and twist to bring a prosecution, especially a political prosecution, they are nearly always wrong. Attacks on a former president, the current GOP front-runner, in the middle of his campaign for office is grandstanding.
These cases effectively criminalize seeking office by anyone who holds views contrary to the Uni-party. Frivolous and vengeful prosecutorial efforts are pursued in violation of laws, norms, and core principles of justice. But the message is clear, “You can go to jail if you disagree with us. If you threaten our power and privilege, there is a cost.”
Americans can longer be trusted to choose leaders within a narrow set of regime-approved bounds. The result is they must force their selections on us by whatever means, even though locking up the opposition has always been the definition of tyranny.
Jan. 6, 2021, served as a pretext to escalate the war and used to punish those with the “wrong” views. They were made political prisoners over questionable decisions made by unarmed citizens who have since been treated as hardened criminals.
The Justice Department tried to add terrorism enhancements to some Jan. 6 sentences, and “obstruction of an official proceeding” felony charges. That’s preposterous. It had never before been applied to protesters. Now Special Counsel Jack Smith has thusly charged Trump.
This regime is threatening our most fundamental rights. When is enough too much, and how long will you stand for what’s going on?
