Everyone is entitled to MY own opinion
Enemies of the State vs. Enemies of the People
By Frank Miele February 01, 2021
I didn’t declare war on the establishment; it declared war on me.
It declared war on me when it supported energy policies that could enrich Saudi Arabia and Russia and would cost me more money at the gas pump or on my power bill.
It declared war on me when it told me my ideas weren’t worthy of debate and discussion or that they were even so dangerous they couldn’t be shared publicly.
It declared war on me when it used the police powers of the FBI and CIA to first spy on a presidential candidate and then worked to undermine the administration of that candidate after he was elected.
It declared war on me when it told me my religious beliefs did not deserve the protection of the First Amendment.
It declared war on me when it told me boys could compete against girls in high school sports and that they could shower together afterwards.
It declared war on me when it offered citizenship to illegal aliens and shipped American jobs to China.
It declared war on me when it mocked the usefulness of a wall on the Mexican border and simultaneously put up a razor-wire fence around the Capitol.
It declared war on me when it tried to defund the police so that millions of Americans would be left defenseless against mobs from antifa and Black Lives Matter.
It declared war on me when it said America was never great.
It declared war on me when it told my children they are not good enough because they are white.
It declared war on me when it said that defending the Constitution’s rules on federal elections is sedition.
It declared war on me when it told me that I was a domestic terrorist if I didn’t believe the government’s official pronouncements about elections, about free speech, and about right and wrong.
Let’s just say it plainly: The establishment declared war on me and on all conservative Americans when it decided that leftist orthodoxy was more important than the Constitution.
Don’t believe me? Fine, why should you believe a Trump supporter? You’ve been indoctrinated by the national media, Big Tech oligarchs, the Democratic Party, and academic elites to believe without questioning that people like me can’t be trusted. But you don’t have to take my word for it.
Listen instead to John Brennan, the former CIA director under President Obama, who speaks authoritatively for the Deep State:
He said on MSNBC that “the members of the Biden team who have been nominated or have been appointed, are now moving in laser-like fashion to try to uncover as much as they can about what looks very similar to insurgency movements that we’ve seen overseas, where they germinate in different parts of the country and they gain strength and it brings together an unholy alliance frequently of religious extremists, authoritarians, fascists, bigots, racists, nativists, even libertarians.”
This “guilt by labeling” is the antithesis of fair play or justice. It is a convenient mechanism for the ruling class to herd people into identity clusters so that individual rights can be supplanted by group responsibility. If this reminds you of China’s Cultural Revolution, you are not wrong. The ruling class wants you to conform, confirm and comply. If you step outside the lines, be prepared to be shamed, silenced and ostracized.
A shocking example was provided Wednesday when Douglass Mackey of Delray Beach, Fla., was arrested for creating memes that allegedly misled voters in 2016 to think they could vote by texting instead of by actually going to the polls. This is the equivalent of arresting Sacha Baron Cohen for exposing the gullibility of the rich and famous. The FBI offered no evidence that Mackey actually convinced anyone not to vote, but even if it did, so what? Would you rather live in a country where the FBI is hunting down pranksters — four years after the supposed transgression — or a country where voters are expected to be able to recognize a joke when they see one?
But nothing can be taken for granted any more. The people — and even their representatives and senators — are considered enemies of the state because they hold opinions that don’t meet the standards of Joe Biden or (this is even scarier!) Jake Tapper.
No wonder the people are starting to rise up and rebel against the plutocracy. It’s not “We the Oligarchs” who are the source of power in the Constitution, but “We the People,” yet the ruling establishment has forgotten that. If people like Donald Trump and Douglass Mackey are deemed to be “enemies of the state,” then those who would suppress them and their freedoms must be considered “enemies of the people.”
A house divided against itself cannot long stand, but if there is to be a truce it will not come from submission, but from a recognition that all people are created equal, that they all have certain inalienable rights, and that among those are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Those words were worth fighting for once. Are they worth fighting for today?
I don’t know, but I do know this: If Americans can’t have liberty, we can’t have America either — at least not one that is distinguishable from China. The time has come to make a choice.

With events swirling since the inauguration there are many changes coming in the American Republic. This is a quick look into a rather foggy crystal ball.
Neither party exists anymore, they haven’t since 2000. This 20 year kabuki theater skit ended yesterday. There is no RNC or DNC, only the Globalist Party, the globalist elites pay them both, not us. Neither represent our interests, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, American culture. They finally unmasked. What a great con job by this group of traitors in Congress. They betrayed their oaths for money, for power, for themselves. What do we owe any of them now?
Relatives of mine worked behind the Iron Curtain back in the day, they were totally unrepresented by their “leaders” too. They just totally avoided contact and got what they needed from the large underground economy, the one the elites could not stop, could not control, could not extort or tax.
That’s exactly where we all are today. Congress does not represent us. They do not work for us. Beyond extorting us all for taxes, they see the American people as mindless scum. It’s the new feudalism, that’s what they define democracy as, the new feudalism. The next time any of them say “democracy”, you should hear “new feudalism”, like they hear.
So, now we know why they want all the guns. Serfs are not armed. Only the lords are armed….
Welcome to the new Amerika.
We are on the cusp of fundamental change regarding the Republic bequeathed to us by the Founders. This video covers some of how we got to this point.
Because of Trump I learned about the Federal Bureaucracy.
Because of Trump I learned about how Congress “works”.
Because of Trump I learned about tariffs.
Because of Trump I learned about the State and Federal Judiciary.
Because of Trump I learned about Impeachment.
Because of Trump I learned about the FBI, CIA, NSA, DoD.
Because of Trump I learned about Elections and Election Fraud.
Because of Trump I learned about the Central Bank, the Federal Reserve, the fiat currency.
Because of Trump I learned about illegal immigration, drug trafficking, human trafficking, child sex trafficking and the rampant pedophilia in Hollywood.
Because of Trump I learned how DC screws us over in both political parties.
Because of Trump I learned how corrupt Media is.
And now, because of Trump, I’ve learned about Wall Street.
I know more about the system than I ever thought I would, or ever thought I’d care to know. I now have that knowledge base moving forward as a citizen of the United States for America, and I’ll never forget any of it.
The spirit of Absolom
The Democrat majority in the House sent one article of impeachment against Donald J. Trump to the Senate. The Senate leaders have scheduled an impeachment trial starting in February. There is a problem with this. As a matter of the Constitutional text and meaning.
The relevant text of the Constitution reads as follows: “The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.” (Article II, Section 4)
Another provision of the Constitution says that an impeached president (or other office holder) may be disqualified “to hold and enjoy any office….” So some are arguing that the Constitutional provisions regarding impeachment should be interpreted to apply to any person who may be eligible to run in the future.
Such an absurd interpretation of the Constitution would literally allow millions of ordinary citizens over the age of 35 to be impeached and disqualified from future office holding.
This absurd reading of the Constitution shows how far people are willing to go to prevent President Trump from becoming a candidate in 2024. Such an interpretation of the Constitution would render the impeachment provisions utterly meaningless.But then, it’s just the Constitution…just a piece of paper, right?
