You know, it’s been my observation that the ones that hate communism the most, are the ones that actually know what it is. Not the pig ignorant college students that are running around the streets acting like moneys flinging poop at the zoo. The Russians and Ukrainians I’ve met have a very strong conservative streak, all were supporters of President Trump, and most were strong Second Amendment supporters. Years ago there was a Demoncrat member of the House of Reps in my state, he spoke every year at the Second Amendment rally held in the spring. He had a very compelling presentation. He and his family had come here from Germany and shortly after arriving here had some untoward experiences. One of the first things he did as soon as he was legally able was to purchase a gun. He was a free citizen now you see, he was a free citizen and he was entitled to defend his life and that of his family. Of course that was years ago, when common sense, values, principles and decency were on both sides of the aisle. When Demoncrats waved American, not Ukrainian flags, when they were concerned about, not even more concerned, just concerned, about America’s borders more than another country’s. A country we’ve sent billions to that has shut down elections, shut down church services and seized land from religious organizations, all in the name of “democracy” which gives you and idea of their idea of “democracy”. Don’t exhale yet Republicans, I’m coming for you next.
Recently there have been quite the votes going on in the swamp. The uni-party is spending more to defend another country’s border and civilization than they are ours. They’ve sent more to help Ukrainian citizens and oligarchs than they have the victims of disasters in East Palestine, OH and Lahaina, HI., citizens under attack from an illegal invaders in every state of the union. Joe’s handlers have been shipping them in since he assumed control. Of course after the massive spending bills passed, the Demoncrats waved little Ukrainian flags. Well, they’re honest about that I guess. It’s who they represent. Sadly it’s Americans paying their salary. It’s not just what is coming across the border. Who other than demoncrat politicians benefits from this? Those paying more in taxes? Those losing their jobs to an illegal, those who had their retirement home taken over by illegals? Who? I can not believe the majority of Americans want this. Well, maybe the elites living in their bubble, but real Americans? No. Nor are they going to sign on to this and continue to vote for it. I’ve seen many videos of people in Chicago and NY expressing strong support for President Trump and the America First agenda, though the Mainstream media can’t and won’t believe it, it’s true. Many Americans are not as stupid as the press gambles they are as they continue to lie to them. And one would think the Demoncrat party would quickly begin to re-evaluate their policies, and yet, they aren’t. In fact, they’re doubling down, almost as though they don’t have to answer to voters. What kind of political system is that?
On of the recently passed pieces of tyranny allows spying on American citizens without a warrant. Something that has been violated by the FIB in ways that most wouldn’t believe. There are actually 3 different categories or titles in the FISA warrant program. Title 1 Title III and Title VII. Title VII is where the much abused section 702 comes in.
I found this little primer on FISA abuses very very helpful. Sadly it won’t let me embed the video. But it’s well worth watching. https://www.theepochtimes.com/epochtv/the-little-known-problems-with-fisa-revealed-truth-over-news-5632987?utm_source=ref_share&utm_campaign=copy
It explains the three categories and has testimony about how much and how many FIB people abuse it. It is absolutely a humongous problem.
A problem politicians that respect civil liberties and their constituents would put a stop to, at once. But Noooooooo.
Here Are the Senators Who Voted For and Against Reauthorizing Spy Powers
In a late-night ballot on April 20, the U.S. Senate voted to reauthorize a controversial spying authority. President Joe Biden signed it into law the following day.
The authority in question, Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), has come under increased scrutiny in recent years by privacy and civil liberty advocates in the wake of a series of abuses.
After rejecting a series of amendments designed to strengthen civil liberty protections—including an amendment by Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) to require a warrant to search Americans’ Section 702 data and another by Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) to prohibit federal law enforcement from purchasing Americans’ data from third-party brokers—the Senate reauthorized the program 45 minutes after it lapsed.
But the House?
House Speaker Mike Johnson has delayed a vote on two bills relating to FISA Section 702 extension and reform, making it likely that the unconstitutional Section 702 will be renewed without change until April 2024.
Johnson has reportedly refused to take a side on this issue and continues to change his stance. Johnson previously said he would bring both bills to the floor.
But he lied, he did take sides.
And in the House, BREAKING: RINOS WIN – AMERICANS LOSE: FISA 702 Again Passes House by Vote of 259-128 – Here are The 117 RINOs Who Voted for Warrantless Spying on Americans
The House of Representatives on Monday passed a Motion to Table the Motion to Reconsider H.B. 7888, which passed on Friday to renew FISA 702 and allow warrantless surveillance of innocent Americans.
This was a betrayal of Americans.
Shortly before the final passage of H.B. 7888 on Friday, the House rejected a commonsense amendment from Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ), which would have required a warrant to spy on Americans. However, 86 Republicans voted for authoritarianism, with Speaker Mike Johnson casting the decisive vote.
Johnson Defends Vote to Kill FISA Warrant Requirement
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) on April 14 defended his crucial vote against an amendment that would have required intelligence agencies to get a warrant to search Americans’ data under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).
….
That final passage came after an amendment by Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) to require a warrant to query Americans’ communications and other data failed in a rare tie vote. Mr. Johnson, who, as speaker, doesn’t always vote, cast the decisive vote that killed the proposal, prompting outrage and condemnation from some conservatives.
….
During an April 14 appearance on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” Mr. Johnson defended that vote, saying that a warrant requirement is “not helpful.”
He insisted that Section 702 is an important tool that has stopped other terrorist attacks like 9/11.
“Remember, that’s how we killed terrorists. That’s how we stopped terrorist plots on US soil,” Mr. Johnson said. “That’s why we haven’t had another 9/11 since that terrible tragedy.”
Does he not understand who, exactly the current junta considers “terrorists”?? Is he totally clueless about parents being dragged out of school board meetings? Is he as dumb as Kamala “Kneepads” Harris? Or is it something else?
Former Trump official Kash Patel reminded Americans of the hundreds of thousands of times the DOJ-FBI used FISA to spy on Americans.
According to an official intelligence document the FBI illegally used FISA 278,000 times to spy on Americans including their political enemies like President Trump, Trump donors, and January 6 families.
This comes from the 2022 memorandum on FISA abuses.
On page 29 of the report: 23,132 separate queries on J6 protesters to find evidence of possible foreign influence despite having no indication of foreign influence related to the query terms used.
On page 31 of the report the analysts admitted to 278,000 non-compliant FBI queries of raw FISA-acquired information.
The FIB is far from the only government agency that isn’t following it’s own rules.
“The Department of Justice confirmed to us last night that the ATF agents involved in the execution of a search warrant of the home of Bryan Malinowski weren’t wearing body cameras,” Cotton and Boozman said in a joint statement. “We will continue to press the Department to explain how this violation of its own policy could’ve happened and to disclose the full circumstances of this tragedy.”
“Mr. Malinowski’s family and the public have a right to a full accounting of the facts,” the Republican lawmakers added.
So the alphabets have gone rogue, no one is holding them accountable and neither party is standing up for U.S. and our new “conservative” speaker of the house has already sold us out.
So, what if it is something else? What kind of system are we living under where the fruit of our labor is taken from us and given to illegal invaders, to people who chose not to work and play the system, to foreign countries? What is that system called?
If you go back to the opening of this column, a cup or two of coffee ago, I was speaking about people that hate communism because they’ve lived under it, I’ll tie this up, or Hogg tie it, if you will.
Meet Lily Tang Williams, she spoke to David Hogg aka #MoneyHogg who is desperately trying to remain relevant.
Pesach starts tonight, when we celebrate the miracle of freedom, when G-d took us out of slavery into freedom and living with laws, morals and a relationship with him. Choose that, choose good, do good, pray often.
חג פסח שמח
Happy Pesach/Passover
Next year in Jerusalem!
And be a beautiful Lily.
