Last week, The Wall Street Journal revealed that members of the intelligence community – part of the deep state, the unseen government within the government that does not change with e******ns – now have acquired so much data on everyone in America that they can selectively reveal it to reward their friends and harm their foes. Their principal foe today is the president of the United States.

Liberty is rarely lost overnight. The wall of tyranny often begins with benign building blocks of safety – each one lying on top of a predecessor – eventually collectively constituting an impediment to the exercise of free choices by free people, often not even recognized until it is too late.

The chickens have come home to roost. In our misguided efforts to keep the country safe, we have neglected to keep it free. We have enabled a deep state to become powerful enough to control a powerful president. We have placed so much data and so much power in the hands of unelected, unaccountable, opaque spies that they can use it as they see fit -- even to the point of committing federal felonies. Now some have boasted that they can manipulate and thus control the president of the United States by selectively revealing and concealing what they know about anyone, including the president himself.

This is a perilous state of affairs, brought about by the maniacal passion for surveillance spawned under George W. Bush and perfected under Barack Obama -- all with utter indifference to the widespread constitutional violations and permanent destruction of personal liberties. This is not the government the Framers gave us. But it is one far more dangerous to human freedom than the one from which they seceded in 1776.

I, too, found the article to be an amazing one. The one question I have re it is "WHY DID NOT THE WRITER MENTION OUR FINE GOVERNMENT AGENCY, THE FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION WHO HAS PASSED ON ALL OF THESE DRUGS THAT I CONCUR CAN BE QUITE DANGEROUS?" I place far more blame on the FDA than on anyone else. I see the FDA as a worthless and DANGEROUS piece of flotsam that we spend millions of dollars on. When will Americans WAKE UP?????? I know,I know......Americans will NEVER wake up - it's just too easy to go with the flow.

Here is a staggering statistic from the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI): “More than 25 percent of college students have been diagnosed or treated by a professional for a mental health condition within the past year.”

Let that sink in. 25 percent.

Colleges are basically clinics. Psychiatric centers.

Colleges have been taken over. A soft c**p has occurred, out of view.

You want to know where all this victim-oriented “I’m triggered” and “I need a safe space” comes from? You just found it.

It’s a short step from being diagnosed with a mental disorder to adopting the role of being super-sensitive to “triggers.” You could call it a self-fulfilling prophecy. “If I have a mental disorder, then I’m a victim, and then what people say and do around me is going disturb me…and I’ll prove it.”

THE T***SLATION OF THESE (mental)PROBLEMS INTO SO-CALLED MENTAL DISORDERS IS SCIENTIFIC F**ERY AND FRAUD. AND THE EFFCTS OF THE DRUGS GIVEN TO TREAT THESE “CONDITIONS” ARE TOXIC AND DAMAGING.

THE MERE DIAGNOSIS OF A MENTAL DISORDER SETS THE STAGE FOR A PERSON TO VIEW HIMSELF AS A VICTIM. HE CAN OPT FOR BIZARRE ALTERNATIVES, SUCH AS “BEING TRIGGERED” AND “NEEDING SAFE SPACES.”

In a very real sense, the entire profession of psychiatry is a mind-control operation.

It has invaded college campuses. It has spread across all sectors of the country and the world.

It is eating societies and cultures from the inside.

I do sincerely appreciate your service in Nam. I know, or at least have an idea, how horrible it was, and the return to the states was just as horrible, thanks to the people who are promoting "c*****e c****e" and who dissed the vets who had had NOTHING TO DO with STARTING THE WAR. You do not have to teach me that our government is our worst enemy........I have said so myself many times over the past 50 years. I apologize I had not gotten back to you earlier, but just today I learned that my notifications had been TURNED OFF AT OPP. (I think management does not love me.) I served in the Army Nurse Corps during NAM, but was never sent overseas. While in service, I married a Marine who was already out and in the US Border Patrol....he later retired as an Immigration Criminal Investigator. We were married for 42 years when he passed away.....on Pearl Harbor Day, of all times. I currently live with a man who served in the Army. I am a retired R.N., quite conservative, and leaning toward anarchy (no ruler) thinking.

That said, let me address your c*****e c****e comments. I, and all scientists, believe in c*****e c****e. It has been going on since the beginning of time. It is NORMAL. It happens. No matter what we do or do not do, we will have c*****e c****e. Trust me -this is TRUE. What started all this arguing in reality was that some people wanted to receive government funding for alternate energy production: wind mills, etc......banish coal, banish this, banish that (so that THEIR businesses would make big bucks). Our politicians and media -all l*****ts- joined in the fun. They didn't care who they hurt or how much it cost the taxpayers (victims of government FORCE) - or how many people they scared half to death. As to the ice missing that you referenced.......I am not surprised, but I am surprised that some people truly believe humans are causing the less ice, affecting the climate. I do not believe humans cause global changes because decades ago I learned that c*****e c****e is NORMAL. That is how we lost the dinosaurs, the behemoths of pre-civilization times......they froze to death, or at least many of them did. During part of their time, the land was plush with greenery, but freezes happened with no human on the face of the earth. Don't forget that our rivers and many canyons were cut from humongous ice glaciers sliding south centuries ago across America. Also remember that one batch of ice is not the total indicators. No humans there to make the ice melt....nature did it, just like nature acts today.

From an article: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/2016/11/24/scott-shackleton-logbooks-prove-antarctic-sea-ice-not-shrinking/
"Antarctic sea ice had barely changed from where it was 100 years ago, scientists have discovered, after poring over the logbooks of great polar explorers such as Robert Falcon Scott and Ernest Shackleton.

Experts were concerned that ice at the South Pole had declined significantly since the 1950s, which they feared was driven by man-made c*****e c****e.

But new analysis suggests that conditions are now virtually identical to when the Terra Nova and Endurance sailed to the continent in the early 1900s, indicating that declines are part of a natural cycle and not the result of g****l w*****g."

I do not have time at present to research enough to change your mind, but I DO suggest that if it concerns you a great deal, study more science than that put out by special interest groups, such as the political left and incompetent "scientists". Thanks for your input, and, again, thank you more than I can say how much I appreciate your service. IF JUST ONCE AMERICANS COULD WORK TOGETHER RATHER THAN FIGHT EACH OTHER, OUR NATION COULD BE GREAT ONCE AGAIN.......assuming we could ban politicians from our meetings. ;-)

Hi, Pennylynn!!! Long time no see. I've not been around on this site as much as I once was.
Am spending more time at American Thinker, Newsmax, and 1-2 other sites. Can't comment on EVERYTHING in a day's time. I appreciate your reading the post. The author did a great job!

Thanks for reading it. The author nailed it and I couldn't help myself.......HAD to post it.

Many thanks for your comment! When one considers that about half the country v**es for neanderthal Democrats, it is not surprising that they cannot understand the fly over states' great passionate interest in their nation. Those neanderthals do not have the same attitude toward their country. I believe the author of the story did a great job!

President Obama, in his final days in office, did everything he could to make war with Russia an inevitability. This is not just a tactic to confound Donald Trump. There is reason to believe that the powers backing Hillary Clinton had it in their sights to push the US and Russia into a war that would likely destroy both nations.

But why? Experts at the Heritage Foundation who have been studying g*******t politics for decades believe that strong nation-states like the US and Russia stand in the way of the goal of creating a one-world government- and the only thing that can destroy a global superpower is another global superpower.

At present, almost every respectable commentator believes that a Clinton presidency would have made war with Russia an absolute certainty. So it would seem that such a war is a big item on the laundry list of someone with g*******t interests.

Today, sources suggest that even Trump’s candidacy for the office of the president may have been arranged by Establishment powers. The pro-Hillary Washington Establishment considered him to be a straw man who could never win, a joke that would set a clear path to victory for Clinton.

But now that their plan has backfired and he has won, they are forced to carry on with the same narrative from the campaign and their tactics are getting easier and easier to spot. This is why leading Democrats appear to be wild-eyed and desperate.

But while the Democratic Party sinks beneath the miasma of its own lies, they are not just a lot of sore losers. Several former Washington insiders, including Roger Stone, have said that Donald Trump’s life may be in danger.

In Woodrow Wilson’s book, The New Freedom, published in 1913 he wrote: “An invisible empire has been set up above the forms of democracy. […] We know that something intervenes between the people of the United States and the control of their affairs at Washington. It is not the people who have been ruling of late. […] Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know there is a power somewhere so organized, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.”

He is speaking about the structures that animate the mainstream media today and the political establishment in Washington that backed Clinton.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt once famously said, “In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way.” Even John F. Kennedy spoke out against the dangers of secret societies that he perceived as being pervasive in Washington and a threat to democracy.

All of this is conjecture, based on circumstantial evidence. But the amount of evidence is enormous and it all points in the same direction suggested by Roosevelt and Wilson. If it is true, that there was a massive conspiracy to elect Trump as controlled opposition it means that there is an even greater power organized around Donald Trump.

That power is the people- united by Trump’s opposition to political correctness and the selling out of the American Dream- the hard-working men and women of the vastly underestimated “fly-over states” who v**ed him into office.

Well, I am a year older than you and I am a woman. Do I have great strength? No, but I have more than I believe most people my age have, and the madder I get, the more my strength grows. Do I threaten to take on a gang of twerps who threaten to k**l me? Hell, NO! That is asking for trouble bigger than I could handle. Would I consider getting at them another way? You betcha I would, and I would win because I, unlike them, can THINK, USE LOGIC, AND I UNDERSTAND THAT EVERY ACTION INVITES A REACTION.

It pleases me to know that old folks can talk tough. They can do that because they have faith in themselves, a necessity in today's world where half the population is braindead. And when they were young, they probably WERE tough. One thing the political left is good at is elevating the testosterone in all decent people.......when they attack us verbally we respond. When wimps are attacked, they whine. L*****ts are wimps who talk big. I've never known a conservative who was wimp. HE may lose a fight, but can take p***e even if he loses because he had the guts to fight and not be run over by brain dead liberals.

What we have been and still are experiencing is a long planned c**ps d'état, which, in MY view has virtually NOTHING TO DO WITH TRUMP. I believe had ANYONE BUT THE CRIMINAL WITCH BEEN ELECTED, the c**ps d'état would have gone ahead just as it is NOW. Hopefully SOMEONE within GOVERNMENT will have the GUTS TO ARREST HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HELPING THE c**ps d'état ALONG AS THEY ARE AS GUILTY AS THE PLANNERS AND ALL OF THEM ARE T*****RS. These t*****rs despise ALL who are not in the t*****rous group. It is, my friends, us vs them, NOT them vs Trump.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am so pleased that you assume responsibility for yourself, unlike most other people who want Trump dead for no reason whatsoever. You see the problem the political left has and it saddens you....and you spoke with the grace good Americans try to speak with. What we are experiencing, Dr. Dross, is a c**ps d'état which is defined as TREASON. Most of us on the right who supported Trump all the way KNEW the c**ps was forming, tried to get people to understand, and while many, many could see it as true, too many could not. What we are dealing with is not merely hatred and spite. What we are dealing with is a well formed c**ps d'état to take our government down, not because the t*****rs have a better plan, but merely because they want to be dictators of a true collectivist tyrannical government that demands no moral behavior.

Can someone visiting this d********g f**e news post explain how this is not TREASON? Not only TREASON by those planning the c**ps d'état, but all of those actively supporting it? It's very definition is TREASON. Do we have the facilities to imprison all of these imbeciles?

I, personally, am opposed to Obamacare, just like I opposed Medicare, because it is unconstitutional. I have always taken care of myself, irresponsible, tried to never take from others what I could do for myself. I expect every American to do likewise. I've never been opposed to charity and I contribute time and money to charities, but GOVERNMENT does not do charity.. CANNOT DO CHARITY - IT MAKES NO MONEY, ONLY STEALS IT .........any handouts that come FROM government were STOLEN BY GOVERNMENT FROM PRODUCTIVE TAXPAYERS. The only people who would approve of Obamacare are l*****ts who despise freedoms for the masses.

C*****e-c****e-fight cost: $100,000,000,000,000
'To reduce temperature by a grand total of 3/10 of 1 degree' by the end of the century

G****l w*****g has become a huge industry these days, with c*****e-c****e entrepreneurs like former Vice President Al Gore cashing in big, as Bloomberg estimated his worth several years ago at $200 million plus, after an asset total of $1.7 million while he was running for president.

Governments are spending big, billions at a time. And doesn’t everyone feel the increasing costs of energy and products?

But a new estimate about what it will cost the world’s citizens to reduce the world’s temperature by the end of the century by a “grand total of three tenths of one degree” is a stunner: $100 trillion.

That’s $100,000,000,000,000.00.

Enough to make 100 million people millionaires.

The calculation comes from Danish statistician Dr. Bjorn Lomborg, the head of the Copenhagen Consensus Center, by way of officials with Climate Depot.

There, Lomborg states, “We will spend at least one hundred trillion dollars in order to reduce the temperature by the end of the century by a grand total of three tenths of one degree – the equivalent of postponing warming by less than four years.”

He explained, “That is using the U.N.’s own climate prediction model.”

The total is bigger than the world’s gross domestic product.

He warned that, “If the U.S. delivers for the whole century on … President Obama’s very ambitious rhetoric, it would postpone g****l w*****g by about eight months at the end of the cenutry. But here is the biggest problem: These miniscule benefits do not come free – quite the contrary. The cost of the U.N. Paris climate pact is like to run 1 to 2 trillion dollars every year.”

That’s compared to the U.S. annual budget of under $4 trillion.

The loony but seriously greedy l*****t money grabbers have no trouble convincing their sheep almost anything they can find to take advantage of........If the left honors any honesty, they are keeping it in hiding allowing no one to get a hint they may have an honest bone in their sick bodies. If one or two well-known l*****ts come up with a scheme to get rich without having to lift a finger, ONLY to lie, they teach their lesser members to cheer for it, they DO cheer for it , of course, and all the little smarmy l*****ts get on board and destroy nations' economies for the sheer pleasure of causing pain, heartache, and financial devastation...............while serving only a handful of already wealthy l*****t clowns. Pathetic bunch of losers.
