lots to consider as you make your way thru this where we discover we once had a legal document called the constitution that made clear our rights and obligations, and its been removed 'for our safety';
The Automatic Earth – by Raúl Ilargi Meijer
In the wake of a number of the Lehman and 9/11 commemorations in
America, and as a monster storm is once again threatening to cause
outsize damage, we find ourselves at a pivotal point in time, which will
decide how the country interacts with its own laws, its legal system,
its Constitution, its freedom of speech, and indeed if it has sufficient
willpower left to adhere to the Constitution as its no. 1 guiding
principle.
The main problem is that it all seems to slip slide straight by the
people, who are -kept- busy with completely different issues. That is
convenient for those who would like less focus on the Constitution, but
it’s also very dangerous for everyone else. Americans should today stand
up for freedom of speech, or it will be gone, likely forever.
The way it works is that president Trump is portrayed as the major
threat to ‘the rule of law’, which allows other people, as well as
companies and organizations, to drop below the radar and devise and work
on plans and schemes that threaten the country itself, and its future
as a nation ruled by its laws.
Bob Woodward’s book “Fear: Trump in the White House” and the
anonymous op-ed published in the NYT a day later serve as a good
reminder of these dynamics. If you succeed in confirming people’s idea
that Trump is such an unhinged idiot that an unelected cabal inside the
White House is needed to save the nation from the president it elected,
you’re well on your way.
Well on your way to separate the country from its own laws, that is.
Not on your way to saving it. You can’t save America by suspending its
Constitution just because that suits your particular political goals or
points of view.
Late last night, Michael Tracey wrote on Twitter: “Trump’s
preference to pull out of Afghanistan is depicted in the Woodward book
as yet another crazy impulse that the “adults in the room” successfully
rein in.” “We’re going to save you from yourselves, thank us later!”
Nobody voted for those adults in the room anymore than anyone voted for
the Afghanistan ‘war’ to enter year 17.
