  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
More extensive than I previously believed.
Every one involved should be held to task:
18 U.S.C. § 241 prohibits all kinds of interferences with the rights of an individual that has been secured by the individual through the United States Constitution or through any other laws of the United States, and that includes actual interference and conspiracy to do so.

Doing so under color of law or in defiance of oaths to defend the US Constitution makes the offences even more egregious.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
