BLAMING THE SOLUTION, NOT THE PROBLEM. HOW TRUMPS STRONG MEASURES TO DEFEAT THE DEEP STATE ARE MIS-TARGETED AS EXTREME
By Lawrence Maglio
Russia Gate, Impeachment 1-Coercion of Zelenskyy, Impeachment 2-Inciting (J6) an Insurrection, and the use of Lawfare to prosecute Trump and his allies, including conservatives with Pro-Life views and J6 protestors, are only some of the indicators that the U.S. was entering into the realm of becoming a “Banana Republic.” This type of government is found in third-world countries in South America and around the world, where the rule of law is replaced by a “hit list” of people who are the “opposition.” Unlike our country, no predicate for a prosecution is necessary to be charged with a crime.
In the last four years, we have moved away from the constitutional protections requiring a crime to exist before a grand jury is convened or a District Attorney formally files charges against a potential defendant. The pretense of a crime is found to selectively prosecute those individuals considered an enemy or a threat to the political party in power.
For example, the valuation of Mar a Logo property was a nonissue, where experts testified that the process followed on behalf of President Trump was standard business practice without an injury to anyone. The lenders indicated they were very satisfied with the repayment of the loan.
Many of us witnessing the politicization of our judicial system were greatly disturbed by these events, not merely because of what was done to individuals involved, including President Trump, but also to what it said about the state of our system.
After all, if this could be done to a billionaire, it can be done to any of us. We saw the Colorado Supreme Court attempt to take President Trump off the Presidential Ballot based on section 3 of the 14th amendment of the U.S. Constitution only to be rebuked by the Supreme Court. Now that the national nightmare (trauma) is over with the clear victory of President Trump, the opportunity must not be missed to prevent a re-occurrence by holding those who were responsible to uphold not only the letter, but the spirit of the law.
When you contrast President Trump’s whirlwind of executive actions taken in his first two weeks to my general summary of only some of the egregious actions taken by the Democrats (the so called “loyal opposition” ) locally and on the federal level to individuals and our system, it is easy to see this is not about retribution-it is about preventing selectively using the law as a weapon against anyone in the future!
President Trump’s Cabinet nominees were consistent with this theme of reform. First, let’s start with of his cabinet nominee Kash Patel who clearly stated that no American should have to be subjected to the type of political persecution that occurred during the Biden Administration. He was for reforming the FBI to prevent the politicization of the agency in the future. Robert Kennedy was focused on the undue influence of the money of big pharma in Health and Human Services especially the FDA and the NIH To Make America (MAHA) Healthy Again decisions must be made clear about the corrupt practices that place the American people and their children second when making decisions on health and food safety.
Personally, I was glad to hear the President was asking for the review of all those DOJ personnel involved in the baseless prosecutions of at that time, presidential candidate Donald Trump and the political targeting of citizens with a conservative viewpoint of being pro-life or fighting to ensure the integrity of elections by questioning the election of 2020.
Although some may view this as “extreme” to me it is a necessary step in preventing us from slipping into a fascist totalitarian form of government. The events of the last four years have shaken many of us, maybe for the better, since we no longer take these freedoms for granted.
I feel optimistic about these initial steps as a starting point; however, without a return to “Americanism” where respect for the constitution our founders gave us is reinforced in our schools, the recovery will be short-lived. The “left” has had free rein in damaging our institutions. Journalism, Education, and Religion have been tainted by radical and irrational ideas (of the far left & possibly Marxists?) replacing critical thought and debate. The “snowflake” culture perpetuated has shut down discussion and diversity of opinion-the very foundation of a free society.
Journalism which once questioned everybody, now “advocates” for social causes, many of which are highly questionable and divisive. Religion now replaces truth for feel good causes, where the individual (and the soul) are subjugated to the “collective.” The legal profession no longer follows the law, but looks for the correct (liberal) outcome. Many who are part of the legal system no longer revere the constitution for protecting individual rights, but look for the correct social justice outcome. President Obama in an interview disparaged the Constitution as merely "a charter of negative liberties.”
Concepts like “post-modernism” have set back objective thought in this country. So although I am thrilled with the President’s whirlwind actions to reverse the tide, I am deeply concerned and hope we all remain vigilant in realizing the seriousness of the task at hand in repairing the fundamentals of our Constitutional Republic for our children and grandchildren to continue to live free.
Samuel Adams said: “Neither the wisest constitution nor the wisest laws will secure the liberty and happiness of a people whose manners are universally corrupt. He therefore is the truest friend of the liberty of his country who tries most to promote its virtue.”
If this battle to save our Republic seems messy or extreme, that’s because it is. To right the extreme damage to our country and institutions that has been done under the last administration the Democrat Party will take extreme measures to correct. You decide if there is any other option, I know for myself there isn’t. Remember the damage may have accelerated the last four years, but the formation of the “Deep State” took over sixty years in the making. May God Bless America and freedom!
