I used to think calling presidents and congressmen and other elected officials our “leaders” was pretty stupid. They are not our leaders; they are our representatives. Their jobs are not about telling us what to do, but about telling other people what we think. They’re not our bosses, they’re our union reps, so to speak.
But I’ve changed my mind. “Leaders” is more apt.
A lot of big and important news items are being discussed around the breakfast tables of America; on any given day, American Greatness publishes stories about most of them. But in the end, none of them matters more than the fight for free elections. You can argue Afghanistan and immigration and education and Antifa until you’re blue in the face—nothing will come of it, if your vote doesn’t count.
Right now, the government’s behavior has nothing whatsoever to do with the dictates of the people. For instance, not a single American outside the government zero—whether Right or Left—wants American citizens (or American service dogs) left behind in Afghanistan. Zero percent of Americans want to work four months of the year to pay their taxes, only to have $90 billion worth of weapons (weapons we ourselves are not allowed to possess) left to an enemy we’ve spent 20 years, thousands of lives and trillions of dollars fighting—with nothing whatsoever to show for it. Zero percent wanted the Nord Stream 2 pipeline built. Zero percent wanted gas prices to double. Zero percent wanted uncontrolled inflation. Zero percent want their emails and texts read by government bureaucrats.
But that’s what we’re getting—because we don’t control the government anymore. We didn’t elect it, and without free elections, we won’t be able to fire it. So we can talk about government policy as much as we want; it just doesn’t matter. We are not being represented; we are being led. A country in which the people are dictated to by the government is called a “dictatorship.”
Can our lost freedoms be regained? They can. They have been regained in the past. It’s still possible that, as the damning evidence of fraud mounts, some judge will grow the spine required to let that evidence be heard in court. Maybe it’ll start a chain reaction; a rebirth of freedom. If it doesn’t, we need some way other than elections to make sure the government listens to us. Do you remember Hooverville?
When Elections are ALLOWED to be STOLEN (2020) Then Nothing else matters !!!!
You sure as hell can’t call them representatives because as our employees, they don’t do their jobs and represent us as they were hired to do. They aren’t leaders either because they are not smart enough to lead one another to the bathroom. You could call most of the turds greedy thieves. Not all, most.
The idea the author is dancing so delicately around is the idea of REVOLUTION.
The people we have (maybe) elected are a class unto themselves. They believe that, anyway.
They don’t represent US any longer, but represent the wealthy and the elite.
They spend our money recklessly and frivolously, know they can just raise our taxes and fees without regard to the will of “We, the people”.
They seek to disarm us while they are surrounded by men with the latest of weapons and the right to use them on “We, the people”.
They enrich their families and friends with back room deals and insider information.
They pass laws without even knowing what is in the actual bill, and BRAG about it.
They make careers out of government “service” because once their face is in the trough of public money, they will not stop.
They send OUR children (NOT theirs, though) to die in senseless wars and then wave their hands at the distress “We, the people” demonstrate as OUR kids come home in boxes while THEIR kids get big jobs with defense contractors.
They openly lie, cheat and steal.
They say one thing in private conversations and say another in public comments (and laugh about it when we find out).
They spy on “We, the people” using every means available to them and somehow think it’s OK in the “land of the free”.
The list is PAGES long.
THEY DO NOT REPRESENT ANYONE BUT THEMSELVES.
I will not say “they should be shot and killed” —- they have made laws against that to suppress dissent and real action.
But Thomas Jefferson said it and so did some other REAL American heroes.
Who am I to argue with men who, on their worst day, forgot more about governing “We, the people” (and what it meant to REALLY represent us), then this current ragtag, thieving, lying, self-important and self-enriching, backdoor dealing, and slimy group of low-lifes we have today????
You sheep better wake up soon.
The wolves are among us right now.
REVOLUTION.
Go ahead. Report me.
Elections Not Honest > then Nothing else Matters !!!!
