A ‘Clear and Present Danger’ to our Republic
By Joe Newby May 1, 2018

 

As we reported Friday, Erin Cruz, a Republican running to replace Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., was banned by the social media giant over a post she made years ago.  In an email to the Conservative Firing Line, Cruz said this was not the first ban she received this week and warned that the current anti-conservative climate on social media presents “a clear and present danger” to the Republic.

We are no longer a Republic except in name only, and it has been that way for a little while.

A majority of the people in country want a top-down despotism and are just fine with corruption, graft and manipulation of both public and private sectors to achieve it.
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775
