Abuse of the citizenry: Is it ending or expanding?

The Security State is just getting started. If they had their wish, MAGAts would already be on the trains to the re-education camps. With future starvation possible, people will turn to sheeple, enabling the Security State to impose more draconian measures against its detractors.

The purpose is to bring the citizenary to a point where they can be starved at will. After that any control is superfluous.

The Surveillance State , the 4th and largest branch of our government. It supercedes the 3 others

If you aren’t already a “prepper” start today. Future security is in food and ammo.

Prudent storage of goods is advisable, but let's face it, if they really get what they want, we are through. Unless you are young and fit enough to build your own shelter and live off the land...

I am increasingly annoyed by Sean Hannity’s defense of “rank and file” FBI agents. Does Hannity think leftist tyrant FBI managers hire conservative field agents?

I beg to disagree. Real Americans were forged in the taming of a wild land, many battles for freedom and survival and two world wars. We beat them all, we can beat a crooked FBI Gestapo and 87,000 brownshirts hired by a corrupt government to steal our money. Bring it on, Brandon, you are not long for our world. FJB and the cow he rode in on.

Uh, it is expanding? Why else do we now have the fourth branch of government, the intelligence branch, running the country.

Abuse of the proles is always expanding...until they revolt. And that revolution has been stalled by the politico response to J6, locking up citizens without bail for "insurrection", and now the raid on Mar-a-Lago, with "real conservatives" declaring it's a "trap" advising those who might take any responsive action to "Keep your powder dry." There are a lot of "useful idiot Republicans" allied with "commie Dems" to make this happen...it's called the UNIPARTY. And so many honesty expect the GOPe to rescue them from this hell the "moderates" have created for themselves.

Amen, #6....I cringe every time he makes that qualification. None of them can be trusted. I believe they'll follow whatever illegal orders they're given to safeguard their undeserved pensions.

I thought Hannity had quit his “95 percent of FBI agents are patriots” talking point. I was wrong.

The British turned against slavery during the Napoleonic Wars. You can see this in the series Master and Commander. I would like to say it was us, but it wasn't. The big turning point was the British. The British were the first. Wilberforce, an evangelical bishop, was hugely important. Speaking as an Irishwoman, it was the British, it was the British. It was not us. Also see Lord Mansfield (chancellor) who responded to the case of an American visiting Britain whose slave ran away in the UK, to which the Chancellor said that having touched down in the UK the slave was now a free man. The US (including my forebear who fought and died for the Union) was a big help, but give the British credit.

There are many positive signs of a Great Awakening stirring in the American people. Among the unintended consequences of the lockdowns for our overlords were parents seeing the garbage being foisted upon their children. This led them to find out about their school boards and the whole rotten mess of public education was exposed. Yet it was the citizen that was shut down and arrested. As the whole narrative of the lockdowns and covid restrictions began to unravel, and the non-vaccine jab hysteria gave way to the reality behind the lies; Americans that still valued their God given freedoms and liberties have been answering the call to find political alternatives to the Uniparty. This 2022 midterm is akin to 1856 when the Republicans took over the Whigs. President Trump has been building the MAGA Party since announcing his run for the presidency. His primary candidates are running the table. The more the Deep State target and persecute him, they make bigger fools of themselves and his power and popularity grows. Donald Trump is a honest man who has very successfully conducted his life's business, and being President of the United States, among the most corrupt and criminal people alive in history. They are intent on destroying him and his family, as well as his and our country. He is perusing his lawsuit against them. He is currently calm and steadfast. As MAGA supporters we need to take our lead from President Trump. These are precarious and dangerous times. Large public gatherings of MAGA people are targets for Antifa and FIB agitators, giving fodder for CNN and MSNBC. Our strongest and truest weapons are the same as our revolutionary fathers and mothers; prayer and faith in God. Our country was founded on the freedoms and liberties given to us by God, so we can only restore them through God. We can support President Trump's efforts best by reading and meditating upon Holy Scripture and prayer. God will guide us in our actions at the right time. Until then, let us follow President Trump's current calm and steadfastness. MAGA

This has turned into somewhat of an anti-Hannity thread, and rightly so. I love his politics but his endless support of the '4th branch' is disappointing. Is he worried about a raid?

I'll stick with the bigger picture as #13 describes. TQ, trusting that TK and you are in better health these days.
