The Deep State wins by ensuring that we are censored, silenced, muzzled, gagged, zoned out, caged in and shut down.
It wins by monitoring our speech and activities for any sign of “extremist” activity.
It wins by ensuring that we are estranged from each other and kept at a distance from those who are supposed to represent us.
It wins by saddling us with taxation without representation and a government without the consent of the governed.
If the president refuses to be held accountable, insists his power is supreme, abuses the power of his office to wreak havoc and revenge, reduces our republic to rubble, tramples the Constitution, and disregards the rule of law, he is aligning himself with every despot, dictator and tyrant to have walked the earth.
We’ve been here before. We know how this story ends.
