    Now that would be Utopia. There are degrees of repercussion to freedom to express. Mild Huff to outright War. And this is the issue (imo) that American (and other) politics has to embrace.

    Again - I would make a great King.

      WELL SAID:



      Recently, a friend told me that she’s never seen Forrest Gump before—which is a crime in my house. So I made her watch the movie with me (spoilers ahead).



      In light of recent events, this movie has taken on a new meaning for me.



      Though Forrest and Jenny started “like peas and carrots,” each of them soon got swept up by a different one of America’s 20th-century cultural currents.



      Forrest’s path was classically American: going to college, playing football, serving his country, starting his own business, and going to church.



      Jenny, on the other hand, dabbles in counterculture: dropping out of college, becoming a beatnik and then a hippie, joining the anti-war protests, indulging in the sex, drugs, and rock n’ roll of the ‘70s.



      In these two characters, I saw a reflection of today’s America—with one side supporting the American tradition and the other opposing it.



      Jenny’s path finds her used and abused multiple times, first as a sex worker and then as a girlfriend. While she experiences momentary freedom as a hippie, she eventually devolves into a groupie who steals from the musicians she sleeps with and hits her lowest point when she attempts suicide.



      But Forrest never stops loving Jenny, no matter how much their paths deviated from each other. He gets rejected by her multiple times but remains there for her through everything—never imposing, never selfish, never angry, always altruistic.



      It’s precisely because of Forrest’s love that Jenny is able to find happiness in the end, and it’s a kind of love that I think we can use more of in our society today.



      2020 has shown me the destructive power of the forces that are working against our traditional values. Coming from a communist country, I know that these forces don’t just destroy their enemies: they also destroy the same people who advocate for them.



      Many people around me don’t truly understand these forces, however, and they’re people I care for deeply. Like Jenny, they were attracted to the prospect of freedom that these forces offered, and like Jenny, they’re unable to see the destruction that these forces could cause to a person.



      It's not easy, but I think that the best thing I can do for them is to be their Forrest. Even though they may seem to be confident in their decisions now, I have to be there for them with compassion and patience. I have to love them simply and selflessly; I have to stay firm in my own convictions and not give up.



      For history tells me that one day, they might regret their decisions. When that day comes, they’re going to need someone there to help bring them back.

        Dear President Biden,

        Although I refused to listen to it, I understand that during your presidential acceptance speech, you were calling for the unity of Trump supporters.

        I remember four years ago my President Trump also called for unity.

        I remember how Congressional members of your Democratic Party responded by boycotting his inauguration.

        I remember how you and your Democratic party cheated and used the greatest law enforcement institution of this country to spy on my President Trumps campaign.

        I remember how you and your Democratic Party created a fake Russian dossier to try and impeach my President Trump.

        I remember how your speaker of the house ripped up my President Trumps beautiful State of the Union speech on National TV.

        I remember how you and your Democratic Party tried to impeach my President Trump over a Ukraine phone call. You accused my President Trump of pay to play. Come to find out Joe, it was really you and your son Hunter.

        I remember how you and your Democratic Party blamed my President Trump over a pandemic that he had nothing to do with.

        I remember how you and your Democratic Party encouraged rioting and looting of my great United States of America.

        I remember how you and your Democratic Party used the media to spread lie after lie about my President Trump.

        I remember how you and your Democratic Party stole the election from my President Trump.

        This Trump supporter remembers all that Joe and will NOT be unifying with your Democratic Party.

        This Trump supporter will be giving you the same respect you gave my President! > Ted Nugent

              Biden to Sign New Round of Executive Orders on Abortion, Immigration

              Mairead McArdle
              Sun, January 24, 2021, 8:57 AM

              President Biden will sign a fresh round of executive orders during his first full week in office, including actions loosening restrictions around abortion and immigration.

              Biden will issue and order to rescind the Mexico City policy, which prohibits U.S. funding for foreign organizations that perform or promote abortions. The administration also dodged last week on whether Biden plans to scrap the Hyde Amendment, which bars taxpayer funding of elective abortions under Medicaid.

              On immigration, Biden plans to establish a task force focused on reuniting migrant families who were separated as a result of the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” policy, according to a memo outlining the upcoming executive actions obtained by The Hill.

              Biden will order an immediate review of the public-charge rule, which denies U.S. entry to migrants considered likely to become dependent on the government.

              The president also plans to roll back Trump administration policies on asylum and take “other actions to remove barriers and restore trust in the legal immigration system, including improving the naturalization process.”

              At the same time, Biden will take a page from the Trump administration’s playbook and sign an order directing federal agencies to tighten requirements on buying goods and services made in America from American businesses. Trump signed a similar directive during his first months in office.

              The president will also sign orders related to racial equity, including establishing a commission on police and bringing back Obama-era rules on transferring military-style equipment to local law enforcement. Another order will direct the Justice Department to improve prison conditions and begin the process of eliminating private prisons.

              Biden may also sign an order reversing a ban on transgender troops serving in the military.

              On climate change, Biden is expected to sign an order installing regulations to “combat climate change domestically and elevate[] climate change as a national security priority

                      DHS Gives Millions in Grant Money for Far-Left Organizations to Demonize Trump Supporters as White Supremacists


                      The feds are funding anti-white propaganda.

                      Published

                      4 months ago on Oct 4, 2020 By

                      Shane Trejo Far-left groups are receiving federal grant money to fight white supremacy, which means producing propaganda to demonize white Trump supporters while ANTIFA and Black Lives Matter burns cities to the ground.


                      The Department of Homeland Security’s Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention program will be giving $10 million in grant money to groups like Life After Hate and the School of Communication at American University. Life After Hate will produce propaganda demonizing President Trump’s supporters as white supremacists while the university will devise ways to censor and restrict conservative voices digitally with the money.

                      The founders and individuals involved with Life After Hate are vehemently anti-Trump and hammer supposed white supremacists as a proxy attack against the president.

                      Trending: Democrats Move to Ban Trump Supporters From Joining the Military and Holding Federal Jobs

                      Life After Hate co-founder Christian Picciolini, who once brutalized and terrorized minorities as a violent neo-Nazi thug, now bashes Trump and the enemies of George Soros for a paycheck:

                      Meanwhile, the School of Communication at American University is openly engaging in spreading globalist propaganda.

                      “The School of Communication at American University is among the nation’s top communication schools, with researchers, students and programs focusing on the intersection of media, technology and society. A leader in emerging and traditional media, SOC has programs ranging from journalism and strategic communication to media entrepreneurship, film and persuasive play,” the Pulitzer Center wrote about the school.

                      The School of Communication at American University partners with the Pulitzer Center to propagate left-wing talking points. One of their reporting fellows is Josee Molavi, who “has focused on documenting the stories of Latinx immigrant artists and activists in Washington, D.C. and beyond.” She previously worked to “provide legal aid to Venezuelan and Central American refugees and asylum-seekers.” AU’s School of Communication will be amplifying her voice with help from millions in federal funds.

                      Big League Politics has reported how the federal government has marginalized ANTIFA and BLM terror while focusing incessantly on the supposed threat of white supremacy:
                      Last week, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announced that they are classifying “white nationalists” as a terror threat on par with ISIS.

                      “We’re particularly focused on domestic terrorism, especially racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists,” FBI Director Christopher Wray said. “Not only is the terror threat diverse, it’s unrelenting.”

                      Wray told the House Judiciary Committee that white nationalists are considered a “national threat priority” and will devote at least the same amount of resources on them as they do on ISIS and militant Islamic terror groups.

                      The problem with the FBI’s designation is that ordinary Trump supporters are considered “white nationalists,” not just to the media and Democrat Party but in the eyes of law enforcement as well.

                      NYPD Intelligence & Counterterrorism Deputy Officer John Miller profiled the Proud Boys, a pro-Trump group that stands up to left-wing ANTIFA domestic terrorists, alongside anti-Semitic hate groups while giving Congressional testimony last month.

                      “Most of the Proud Boys are not from New York City, but it presented too attractive a target for them when they decided to engage in violence,” Miller said, referring to when Proud Boys members committed acts of self-defense outside of a rally in New York City last year.

                      Two Proud Boys members were sentenced to years in prison in 2018 for committing self-defense against anti-American ANTIFA terrorists. Because of the work of the FBI, that standard will likely be applied to patriotic activists all throughout the country due to their crackdown against “white nationalism.”

                      Wray also stated that he would work to track and profile white Americans through a domestic terrorism and hate crimes fusion center which would “bring together the expertise of domestic terror folks and hate crimes folks.”

                      “They’re working together to not just focus on the threats that have already happened but to look ahead around the corner to anticipate where else we need to be,” he said.

                      By “domestic terror folks and hate crimes folks,” Wray means he is going to have his agency rely on far-left, anti-constitutional, anti-Trump organizations like the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) to do their intelligence gathering for them.

                      The FBI has a long history of working with the ADL and SPLC. The FBI had a working relationship with the SPLC as of 2018. The ADL even held a summit with the FBI’s Los Angeles Field Office just last year specifically on the issues of domestic terrorism and hate crimes.

                      While pressuring social media providers to censor their political opponents, the ADL has called upon Congress to destroy the Bill of Rights and criminalize right-wing speech in direct violation of the 1st Amendment.

                      The deep state is punishing Trump’s supporters by giving money to their political enemies who will demonize them as white supremacists after their Russian hoax coup failed.
