Americans have absorbed the truth that the institutions long depended upon for redress are compromised. For years we had always suspected this, but in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election this has been confirmed with much dismay and sadness.While these revelations have been downright traumatic, they have also provided clear insight as to the height, depth and breadth of the corruption that has seduced our governmental institutions into betrayal. And as with any cancer, you cannot have the proper treatment until you know the extent of the infiltration.Carrying this analogy further,

This article lists the slow slide left that has entangled Liberty in America. Read it and weep. Constitutionists have a big job ahead.

We think if we are tolerant enough. If we simply go along to get along. If we assume "well, you know, we all want the same things we just go at it from different way". If we keep away from those old taboo subjects of politics, sex and religion. If we just play nice they'll see our point of view. Well, they won this time so we will win next time...
I've been saying it and saying it and saying it. I keep saying it. You can't have a little communism, you can't have a little Nazism, you can't have a little socialism.
They are not in this for honorable reasons. They want slaves to a system.
Play nice, be a slave. Cut them out and at least you go down fighting.
I'd rather die in my feet than live on my knees folks and I don't care whose feelings I hurt.
At this point, it's very simple...
You are either a patriot or a traitor.

Poster 1 I hate to be the bearer of bad news. The republic is dead. There is nothing left to do. The Republic known as America went DOA on November 3, 2020.
There is no coming back from this.

FTA - "And as with any cancer, you cannot have the proper treatment until you know the extent of the infiltration."
Dex, you are correct that the cancer has metastasized and is Stage 4. Indeed, aggressive treatment is the only option, but, this only works if the patient understands that the cancer exists, the severity of the cancer, and is willing to treat it. Currently, America is in denial and will die cruelly....unless God, Our Almighty Divine Savior, shall intervene.

We are not one body--we are many parts that make up a single American entity. If several of those parts have chosen to attack the fabric that holds the entity together, then two choices remain: (1) Counterattack with extreme force against those malignant parts that are attacking the entity--bring them into submission or (2) Call the time/date of death of the entity and break the remaining effective parts into smaller elements separate from the malignant parts.
While I prefer (1), we have not even had an overt conversation on what the plan would look like and I fear we may already be beyond the point of effectiveness. If God blesses us with 4 more years of Trump, and somehow gives us a congress and senate full of warriors, then maybe we still have time. This would consume our every minute and we could not be distracted with tax cuts, illegal amnesty, and even abortion fights for now. We must go after the core/nucleus of the very institutions that are eating our soul. I say, start with physically relocating these institutions into the heart of America--red districts in red counties in the reddest of states. Put farmer Jones, plumber Roy, and cosmetologist Irene in charge of the Department. Do away with full Departments (Education, HHS, etc.). Outlaw lobbying of any kind. Term limits across the board. Kill the cancer!

The next time I go to my local polling station, it would be appropriate if they handed me a sticker that reads:
"I voted in 2020 and it didn't count"

Unless we grow a spine and do what the colonists did in 1776, we are DONE.
I'm ready, but I can't do it alone. In need a leader and a plan. Waiting for that. I have the necessary tools and skills, and the will.

#3 there is an option left, but I don't see that enough people have the stomach for it.

Let's start at the very beginning...those six "constrovesial" states with REPUBLICAN-controlled legislatures who did effectively NOTHING. Blame the Dems, but that stubborn fact remains and is unforgivable. Why did REPUBLICAN legislatures do nothing? Oh, there are various excuses, but this is a Constitutional duty that doesn't require the governor to call the legislature into session. But, like political zombies, our side is always right... Every REPUBLICAN legislator in those states should be recalled and made to answer. But that takes work and might upset some people...

I'm at the point of thinking we would be better off if the two Republican candidates for Senate in the Georgia run off lost and we were left with absolutely NO FIREWALL. Congresscritters cannot save us. Only if the Right totally loses their voice will we be motivated to push back. We cannot count count on the government. Period.

Re: #2, 3 - The US is not dead yet. I've stepped over dead bodies just to get to a fight and I haven't grown too soft and cowardly with age. I know that a lot of folks have given up but I pray that there are more who will not slink off into that good night as long as they can move air in their lungs.
