Exceptional women can be part of the team that protects the president, but not short fat women (sorry, it needs to be said).

Or short fat men either.

I didn't see any short fat men around Trump. I guess the physical requirements were not lowered for them.

Expand full comment

I didn't see anyone fat around him. Not sure why everyone keeps calling the woman fat. While the suits they wear restrict full visual evaluation, all looked to be at fairly healthy weights.

As far as height, check again: EVERYONE in the photo appears shorter than Trump, including the men-save for the guy on the right who appears about Trump's height. Since they are all bent forward to some degree (again, the suits make it impossible to tell exactly how much) AND the photo is taken from below at an angle, it's pretty much impossible to accurately determine how tall anybody is with any accuracy.

That being said: according to Rep Comer's request for the director of the Secret Service to testify, they have faced understaffing and recruitment challenges. Not difficult to believe considering pretty much every law enforcement agency in the country is currently running with significant % vacant positions and hiring difficulties. The military is also struggling to recruit. So, I guess the whole idea of "lowering standards" strikes me as a bit of a wash unless there are actually better-qualified individuals who are being turned down for positions so that the less-qualified woman or person of color can have one.

If there is a major shortage of qualified people, then I suppose we are left with the choice of having nobody in front of Trump vs having that woman. Who, regardless of her height and weight, is THERE and doing the job. I'm not clear on why everyone seems to think it would be preferable to raise standards so that there would be even more of a shortage. We can talk about who the ideal agent would be, but if there aren't any of those types signing up, then we have to make due with whomever is willing to risk their life to protect a stranger whose politics they may like, or detest. Or am i missing something?

Yeah. You are missing something. At the RNC there were about 20 large men around Trump. They are available. They weren’t made available.

In addition the US has 900,000 military personnel. The USMC would be honoured to be trained to protect the President.

Expand full comment

The US military is 1) Constitutionally disallowed from operating domestically and 2) having a serious staffing problem: the Marines, the smallest of the armed services, are the only one that even met their recruiting goals last year. Barely. The Army, Navy, and Air Force came up quite short. Hence the sudden renewed push the strengthen Selective Service registration enforcement and expand the requirement to women.

Expand full comment

The RNC is a larger event and is in WI. This was a campaign stop, one of many, in PA. You do know that agents are stationed all over the country, staff events near their home, and have rules about how often and how long they can work. I'm sure you also know that local LEOs are often used to supplement security at large events, as was the case at the rally.

So, then, you are assuming that all those men were Secret Service as opposed to other LE, or possibly private security hired by Trump and/or the RNC. Also, the point of my post was about recruitment and eligibility requirements. Not the selection of which existing agents will serve on which occasion. Because, you see, the rally was one of many, business as usual-until it wasn't. Obviously after an attempt and at an event like the convention, security will be beefed up and not business as usual.

So, i guess what you're saying is that the men working the RNC should have been signed to that particular rally instead? Heck, I don't understand why those large men don't just work 24/7 around Trump as they are clearly the best the agency has to offer. So why have anybody else at all? 20 large men should be sufficient...

Sorry, I don't see it. The fact that, days after an assassination attempt and at a MUCH bigger event than the rally-in terms of size and length but also in terms of how many big names other than Trump will be present AND the fact that this is the nominating convention-there is a bigger (in several ways) security team doesn't prove that such teams are available for every campaign stop. And according to both the Secret Service and the House Oversight Chair, who is hardly anti-Trump, there IS a staffing shortage at the agency. I'm sure both will be relieved to hear your assessment that they have plenty of qualified staff. So many that they should start culling the lower performers, I guess?

Yeah. Cull the lower performers. There is not a shortage of workers. Pay more.

Women can protect the president - it just can't be any woman. For goodness sake they have to meet standards and be trained. In front of the world we see a weakness. Same goes for men. Not sure if all the men assigned were prepared. The reputation of the Secret Service is shattered. I didn't want to once more think something might be a set up but I can't help it. No one would miss that shot and that shooter should never have been able to get up on that roof. That roof should have been covered by an agent.

Expand full comment

Agree. They are trying to shift the focus onto blaming women for what happened, when something shady was going on that had nothing to do with this argument that, obviously, only an exceptional woman can protect the president and it shouldn't have been that woman.

In the Trump situation CHILDREN could do better.

Yes, women can protect Trump. (In many scenarios women are the BEST at protecting people!)

In hand to hand combat I would prefer trained men. Could some women out perform some men hand to hand? SURE, but not in general.

Expand full comment

Okay, but you're assuming there was an exceptional woman or a man available and willing to fill that spot. Law enforcement as a whole is full of vacancies and bleeding experienced officers and agents. Is it really preferable to REDUCE the number of agents even further because they're not "ideal"?

Or to put it another way... Given that pretty much no LE agency currently has their choice of the best applicants, would we prefer to take those who are willing and meet a reduced standard, or simply make due with the (very) few exceptional candidates they have? It seems like everyone is assuming that woman took the position away from a 6ft 8in bodybuilding man. That's very unlikely to be the case, although I'm open to proof that I'm wrong.

Also, why is everyone talking about the height of the woman, who is clearly bent forward, but not the height of the men in the back, who also appear to be bent forward but not as much and none of whom are even terribly close to Trump's height in the photo? I personally think it's impossible to tell from the photo how tall the agents are, but assuming you're right that she is short, to my eye so are the men. So why is the talk about the dangers of female agents as opposed to the dangers of short agents, period?

Expand full comment

The three women by the car were clearly in a panic. They are incompetent. The lack of LE is because the cities are trashing police. Who in their right mind would join a police force now, save for perhaps in a small town. Train 100 USMC men and the problem is solved. Women in general cannot do the job. Men in general cannot do the job. I am 73. I can’t do the job. When I was 35 and ripped I was not bulky enough to do the job. Out of 100 people who can, 99 would be men. Three women on Trump, who is very tall was wrong. The head of the SS saying they identified the roof as being a danger spot but the less than 10 degree slope made it dangerous!! It was left unprotected.

Then for the ignorant DEI SS Director that the roof had too much of a pitch to put someone on it!!!! Are you kidding me!!! Our roof on our home is much steeper than that and I even clean it and the gutters all the time!!! So an experience, trained SS gunmen can’t handle that…..this is absolutely BS!!!!

This was so staged it’s ridiculous. I wonder how much they paid these women or were they too ignorant to even realize they will go down as the DEI three stooges!!! Agreed!!! We climbed 30-40 foot trees, I clean my roof and gutters that are five times steeper, and this was a sloped roof to worry about!!! Then they all need fired. She isn’t a good liar…they planned on killing him…and the corrupt people are so greedy they couldn’t wait to short Truth Social the day before, Nuland just couldn’t keep her mouth shut confirming the fix was in, and on and on!!! Trump needs patriots protecting him!!!! All of us could have stopped this attempt!!! He would have been taken out the first citing!!! Everyone who saw him and the SS ignored them, should have picked up anything and ran to the building and started throwing it at him. Stay close to the side so you didn’t get shot! Then he would have had to stand up and if they didn’t shoot him then, it would have been very obvious he was working with them!

Agreed

The whole operation was inept

The snipers were perched on a steeper roof as are snipers at the white house

Also, they knew it was a danger, but didn't heavily guard it?

Biggest question to me is that we now know that security was informed of suspicious activity minutes before the shooting.

Why wasn't Trump evacuated to safety ASAP during that time

This post is 100% sarcastic.

Some have missed that.

I watched multiple videos of different people trying to get their attention! Yes, he should have been immediately secured and escorted from the podium. But they waited for the guy to shoot first. Also, I just saw another video today where the shooter was just walking around in front of the building back and forth! They said police were supposedly staged in the building and they didn’t find that strange and he brought a ladder to get on the building!

Except that Truth Social was pegged as a meme stock that would almost certainly be shorted as soon as it dropped, when it was revealed the company had such tenuous finances that its survival was in jeopardy (and that is from the report written by their own people).

Also, the majority of those who purchased that stock were hardcore Trump supporters plus a few randos hoping to cash in on a pump-and-dump situation. Are you saying that this was all planned by those who love Trump so much that they purchased his stock despite the dire financial predictions of the company's own accountants? Sorry, but I don't buy it. Unless you can show that there was a sudden update in new investors in the recent months who were then responsible for the increase in short sales... It just has too many holes to make sense.

The vicious mockery of women has been heating up from all sides. Yes incompetent women make us all look bad, but the relentless focus on the women when there is plenty of blame to go around should be ringing alarm bells. Too many men are serious about the sandwiches, repealing the 19th Ammendment, no fault divorce and reproductive rights. Excesses of feminism, like me too cancelations without due process and incompetent DEI hires, are causing a tsumani of resentful backlash. We'll be lucky to hang on to the rights our foremothers fought so hard for.

I have had the same thoughts actually. The balance is off. And with the dems / wokes trying to erase the natural woman and us fighting back, there is a danger of some carrying this too far the other way. On the other hand, I have no problem with making my man a sandwich. My granny was a house wife and she was very houseproud and caring. And my grandad very much appreciated her, he never looked down on her in any way. In reality, she was the boss of the house, but she didn't let him feel that way. I see no wrong in this. Of course there is other men.....

Never confuse governmental incompetence with conspiracies. I served as an attorney for a few years at a fairly high level of government and interacted with quite a few government employees in law enforcement and politics. You have no idea of the large percentage of government employees who are patently incompetent. They are protected by various civil service protections that make it almost impossible to fire incompetent or ineffective employees. Employees are rewarded for not rocking the boat, not questioning orders, and time in the job. The very few competent and motivated employees have no financial upside and are often punished for working hard and making everyone else appear lazy. They usually give up and leave. I would have thought of all of the Federal Government agencies, the Secret Service would have the most competent and motivated employees, but the numerous layers of incompetency revealed in the Trump assassination attempt, both before, during and after, is almost beyond comprehension. Still, I believe an independent investigation will show it was gross negligence in planning, protection, supervision, communications, and execution as opposed to a conspiracy.

Wow, didn't know you were that tall. :>)

I think a woman could be on the detail, but not those women. The woman with her hair in a bun trying to stand in front of Trump was too short; he towered over her. The rest were clumsy and sorry to say this, out of shape. I'm thinking only the fittest, with the proper training. They seemed to be clueless as if they did not know what to do. I wasn't terribly impressed with the men either. They did not work as a team and appeared clumsy. It is easy to watch and judge, but it sure wasn't what I would expect.

When the attempted assassination of Pres Ronald Regan happened, the Secret Service was all over him and got him out of there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1Jid5uRFo4

I have thought some about the whole thing. The picture of the shooter, looked like an old pic. I have thought about the movie "Shooter" and JFK. Maybe someone else took the shot from another location. Some say Thomas Crooks brought a ladder, but where was the ladder in the pics and videos? Why did the Secret Service (SS) have to get permission to shoot a person posing a threat with a rifle? That should be the expected action since there is not time to run over there and get him on the ground; you stop the threat and take it out. There were police or SS in the building the shooter was on? Too many stories to sort through.

Robert Malone has some thought provoking articles on this too. Everyone is going to investigate. Lord knows after seeing what that does, that is a waste of time and money; Hillary Emails, Russiagate, Trump Impeachments, J6, Election Fraud...the outcomes are already decided and it is all staged for theatre. The outcomes are what are questionable. A sane person with a functioning mind should have become suspicious over time. The last 4 years have been nothing but disasters. The change in the dignity and show of respect by the Media and Hollywood and the undignified behavior of the people in charge is so abnormal. I don't recall before Trump ran and was in office, such attacks and rudeness; downright nasty attacks on a President. People tried to blame Trump for COVID, and the same people thought Fauci was a Saint. Trump took his advice from Fauci on COVID. That never made sense. All the back stabbing people even in Trump's circle (Mike Pence, Lindsey Graham....), and now looking back it is really obvious.

Other Countries leaders have said what is going on here is intentional Self destruction:

El Salvador President Bukele expressed his belief that the erosion of major U.S. cities is “by design” and a product of “enemies” within the U.S. political system.

“When you look how the cities are eroding so fast, this has to be by design. I mean who would make so many stupid decisions?”

“They’re literally giving some people drugs in some U.S. cities, or they say we’re going to give you money if you don’t work. They make all these laws that make no sense.”

“If they have high crime, they say okay, I have a solution, let’s defund the police.”

President Putin and Hungary's PM have made similar comments.

Expand full comment

Very good observations. I hadn't read what President Bukele said. But it's obvious that the insanity that's been going on for years has been an "inside job" to bring down the United States. The US can't be attacked by an army from the outside, so it has to be attacked from the inside.

I think examples like the photo of Crooks being an older one is interesting to contemplate. Because of how fast things move on the internet, the first photo found and posted is likely to get circulated like lightening, everyone picks it up. That photo becomes THE photo. Then, if it's inaccurate or older, after people start seeing other photos, they start accusing whomever of planting the original photo on purpose. And maybe it was. Or maybe it wasn't. I always wondered about those drag queen story times, for example. They were spread around the internet and took off like wildfire. The more they were posted, the more events were planned. Probably libraries thought they were the right thing to do. But I never met a parent, conservative or liberal, who would take their kids to one of those. Who in their right mind would??? It seemed like a setup--maybe even by conservatives to tarnish the other side. These outrageous events are everywhere in the media for a time, and then, poof, they disappear. And we are on to the next outrageous event. Menticide, as I have warned for so long.

But that's the thing, we really don't know any more if something is occurring naturally or if we are purposely being manipulated. Or, something can start naturally and then it is just magnified online. I'm writing about "click farms" at the moment, so it's on my mind.

Sam Altman has said that within a few years we literally won't know what is true and what isn't. That's thanks to AI. And behind all of this, AI is the biggest threat, and we have these tech gods that keep on tinkering with it. It doesn't matter who is president, they will push forward with AI. Everyone senses Trump has power now and they are all coming over to his side.

It's always been easy to manipulate the masses, but in more straightforward ways. Now, there are so many subtle ways to do it. And on such a grand scale. I don't think the shooting was staged. We know that because people really died. Not to say those who plan such things would care if someone died or not. But the only way it would have been staged would be if the Trump team staged it--such an assassination attempt would in no way help Democrats. But the Trump team does not have control over the SS, or the FBI, or the CIA. With all the attacks on Trump, as you listed, we know whose side they are on. So how Trump's team would get the SS to appear so inept seems impossible. I think the most likely scenario is that they simply were inept. Now, it's possible someone was bought off to ensure Crooks had as much freedom as a person could get in order to get on that roof. It's possible someone influenced him ahead of time.

But the evidence we have in front of our faces that we don't need to speculate about is that there were many failures in security. Trump is so despised by the agency heads (but I do wonder if the agents themselves despise Trump, maybe many of them don't) they would be putting their energy toward protecting the Bidens, especially as Cheatle is said to have been hired because of Jill and her advisor, can't think of his name off the top of my head.

Anyway, a lot to think about. One thing we know for sure, we can't trust any official investigation--we would be fools to do so after what we've seen these "crooks" do so far.

Another thing I've been thinking about it that at a certain point, if AI keeps on taking over the way it is, we will have to abandon the concentration on whether something is real or not. It just can't factor into how we make our decisions, or we will go crazy. We have to shift our thinking a bit. This comes back to what I keep harping on about common sense. I have to think about it some more and don't want to write an entire essay here, ha-ha!

I absolutely do not think Trump or "conservatives" planned Trump's assassination attempt. The people I read that think that was staged are strange and something is going on with them?? You have to read their other ramblings to figure out, they are possibly living in a delusional world on the internet. I don't mean Fritz; he is a hard read and I think he is eccentric. Sources of learning can come from what might be the most unlikely people. On my own I would not decide to listen to Louis Farrakhan, but some years ago (5 or more) Harry Vox had a video on bitchute of Farrakhan and he recommended it to understand the Banking System. I cannot find the original video, but located a version of it again: https://www.bitchute.com/video/Tg7p5FSJ99I3 There is a lot of truth in what he says there.

I trust Trump. He truly loves this country and cares about the people. The things he did and wants to do to save the country are the exact opposite of the Global Agenda. Trump wants what most people want; prosperity, independence, controlled immigration, energy independence, no wars... The Globalist who control everything have done everything possible to keep him out and get him out of office using the people they control and nothing has worked. The only thing left is to assassinate him; Tucker Carlson has said that is all they have left. IMO people (Democrats and some Republicans; work for the deep state) want him gone. Trump is not a politician, and those people want Trump gone and out of their way, and would definitely attempt to kill him and anyone getting in the way is collateral damage. That was the point I was trying to make by using JFK and the movie Shooter. I go with the theory JFK was killed by CIA. RFK was another hit job, according to: https://julietbonnay.substack.com/p/death-threats-made-to-bobby-kennedy?publication_id=1035989&post_id=136547560&isFreemail=false&r=nei37

Anyone who gets in the way, is going to get a bullet in the head. We are all disposable to them.

The published photo of Crooks? That was a thought thrown out due to knowing the Media, and how they might try to manipulate the appearance of the situation. I don't put to much stock in that, just a thought.

Cheattle being incompetent or purposefully ignorant, who knows which for sure, probably both. Everyone in positions of power appear incompetent or refuse to do the job; DOJ, Homeland Security, Kamala, Biden, Butteigeg. Then the people I thought were patriotic with morals (Graham, Pence, McConnell, Mike Johnson,,...), turn out to be not. Just like you have said, if you want to play the game and get to the top and stay there, at some point you join the ranks of deceitful people or leave.

AI is definitely a threat. It is already in use and controlling the internet and content you are able to see when you search with google. Google was censoring what you search for, going back to when Trump was President or before. If you search for Biden failures, it would come up with Trump articles and of course defamatory ones. Now if you search for Transactivist that have committed murder, you will get all Trans people are victims. AI is just making the whole internet cohesive and pulling in and summarizing the results and showing articles they want you to see. AI can be programmed to do whatever they want; it is who is doing the programming; like AI making all people black; remember that. It is only as good as the people programming it.

Oh my goodness yes, the whole machine works on being able to control the narrative, and what you think; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0OrT-8gXMs.

The internet has thrown them (Global Elites) into a tailspin. Since the internet people are able to find out things published independently that tell more than they want you to know. It unveiled them and their dirty deeds. AI will be able to take control of the internet. I am concerned, we will loose access to all independent publishers like yourself or Joe Rogan, Tucker Carlson,...

I enjoy your works immensely, and I learn a lot.

In reading "Gods of Tech and Pestilence" I had a question but did not ask. I remembered when you had previously wrote about "Nickel: the dirty business of clean energy" and I thought that was the article where you said something about....the second largest natural lake in the world is polluted by mining in Africa. I cannot find where you said that. If you can't remember the article it's okay. Don't go to any trouble to find. I looked for a while and got frustrated and gave up.

That should have been The Persecution of Tucker and Trump. The essay about Lake Victoria is Who Owns Everything and it's about water.

I wrote a piece a while ago, The Persecution of Tucker and Trump, about "the two most dangerous men in America". Tucker has said some things since that gave me pause but over all who would noy agree with what he says. It's rational.and makes sense.

Listening to Trump's speech last night I felt so hopeful. Again, who could not agree with what he says. It makes sense, it's not rocket science. I also couldn't help but be worried since how will he ever live up to all those promises. People have put him on a pedestal now, as if he can miraculously solve everything. I don't know how he stops these wars..if he'd been president instead of Biden it's true, we wouldn't be in these wars. But now, I'm not sure they can be stopped. But I hope they can.

I can't remember what essay that polluted lake is in but I will look for it..

What is most distressing is the worship of trump.

Women need no help in that regard. They vote D, supporting decarceration and no cash bail, then complain the streets are unsafe. They vote D, then whine about D-caused inflation making groceries & gas unaffordable. They vote D, then cry over the graves of their raped & murdered daughters killed by D-demanded open borders. They vote D, then complain that they lack privacy in their spaces. They vote D and then learn that the thousands of hours they’ve spent practicing a sport since they were four years old were wasted as an average male just kicked their ass.

So you have a choice: the real world women are destroying by voting on empathy, or recognize that government is force, women lack the “force” gene, that history is bereft of matriarchies for a reason… and either alter your voting patterns or get disenfranchised, or finish destroying Western Civ, for it to be Darwinistically replaced by Islam - in which you have no rights or voice at all.

If the protector is not bigger & stronger than the protectee - if by sheer size they cannot shield the protectee - they are not right for the job. If they can’t even holster their firearm, they don’t belong anywhere near a protective detail of anyone.

This broad seemed to have no idea what to do, zero ability to shield a protectee much larger, was completely incapable of helping drag DJT offstage, and surprised everyone by not shooting herself in the foot with an accidental discharge. She had no idea what she was doing. Just like Director Cheeto.

Someone pointed out the names: Thomas CROOKs and SS Director CHEATle. Funny, but of course, not funny.

Absolutely, this woman was not up to the task for the reasons you mention. That doesn't mean no woman in the entire world could do that job. Anyone who goes for that job, just like for the job of a fire fighter, military, etc. should have to perform at the highest standard expected. If they can't do it, they can't do the job. It's simple.

I think we have to stop thinking in these extremes that we are being forced into. Candace Owens is saying women shouldn't even be pilots. I had a female pilot from NY to Los Angeles and I was glad. She was also a great communicator. How far do we take these rules? We have to be careful not to be the tyranny we fought against.

Candace's comment about pilots was wrong. Made no sense. When ppl like her who make some really good points, then take it too far, they lose credibility with some. It's misguided. That CHEATle CROOKs thing is bizarre!

You had a female pilot setting course & arrival time. And initiating the (man designed, made, programmed) computer program that flew the plane there. Had there been a bird strike, your pilot would’ve been hiding behind the controls rather than doing the Scully thing.

I would strongly recommend you rewrite your article and eliminate all anti-Trump bias as it only questions the rest of the claims you are making. Stick to the facts - Trump being a threat to democracy is certainly not one of them; if this were true Biden would not be in the White House.

I agree these decisions should be made rationally, not by emotion. I take exception when men say women are driven more by emotion and men by intellect. The thing is, the problem with what happened at the rally has nothing to do with whether or not a woman can protect a president in a physical situation. It has to do with someone on the inside helping the shooter. Who was that person, or persons, is the most important question.

I find men to be extremely emotional. We are in wars because they get so angry with one another. I was physically abused by a husband who could not control his emotions. Men get in physical fights all the time and women try to calm them down. Women cry more often and men get violent more often. That's also true.

But I agree, it is more likely a man should be in a position where a physical fight might occur than a woman.

Yes, but generally speaking, most women should not qualify to be assigned a position as a direct shield. The agents height and strength will matter.

But the skills and stature of women would be hugely beneficial in other roles on the security team.

You're right on there, the right woman can. Statistically there are less women who have sufficient height and musculature, but there are some who excel at such roles.

I've met puhlenty of "badass" ladies in mah day that could'a dunnit but not only was "Sally Struthers" there unqualified (no offense Sal...)--but they put a SHORT lady in front of The Donald for 3 reasons (however ya take this "staged" or "set up" event...)

1. the cameras gotta GREAT view of the entire scene an' Donald's fist punch b/c lil' blondie was not tall enuf ta block Donald's waistband let alone his body (as should'a been the case--DJT's over six feet so ya'd want tall folks to protect him!) This laydee (had she not been incompetent) could'a protected Danny DeVito!

2. they picked a woman who is clearly outta shape an' outta her element (along with the two other Blues Brothers "act real cool" acturds)--who was so short Hulk Hogan could'a picked her up with one hand 'n spun her. C'mon--I think these were not real pros at protection but ruther cast b-grade actors...) Pickin' this kinda petite pudgette would make ya lose all faith that anyone on "team Trump" (or ass-igned to protect him) was anythin' but a joke--Demoralizin' from any angle and...

3. as ya state Karen, it's OBVIOUS that puttin' a short stop in front of tall drink 'a water DJT was not protective in any way--that left him vulnerable... An' they put her RIGHT IN FRONT! An' even if there was makeup applied to his ear (stage gel), it still made it possible for the entire "presentation" to leave him open to shots at any time... WHOEVER did the staging.

And if it warn't staged (imho it was but just sayin') then the DEMS had a perfect "bullseye view" of their man... their TARGET... whatta gift ta Biden (mebbe he sniffed that laydees hair too?)

Yes Karen, you could'a done this (with trainin') an' I've seen women athletes strong as bulls--but this whole thing WAS bull! (an' the cops & SS had ta know it--surely THEY were laffin' too no matter who gave'em their "direcitons")

Reality is the only thing that matters.

This stupid and insane violence we see so much of is the direct result of the political powerlessness of the powerless.

Our government officials and talking heads, worldwide, taut our system as a civilized and representative democracy. They claim to be doing the best thing for us on each and every point across the board.

Periodically, they even let us vote for representatives who are authorized to vote for us on the new laws that will do the right thing for everybody each and every time. And this empowerment of fallible human beings is the only means we have to redress our grievances.

And yet the honest Congressional and Legislative representative admits that they do not read, examine or debate any of the laws they vote on.

In the USA, they vote on one hundred - 2,000 page laws every day. They vote the way their advisors tell them to vote.

And according to the powerless, the situation gets worse.

So, when does it get better? Or is it necessary that our democratically elected representatives, who do not have the time to evaluate the legislation they vote on, plunge us into Armageddon where only God could sort it out?

Somehow, we have to call a stop to the madness.

The peaceful, prosperous world we all hope and dream of begins when the responsible Citizens develop a way to evaluate 200 Thousand pages of law speak per day.

This evaluation must be public, transparent and in a form that can be viewed by everyone in order make certain that the Law being enforced is congruent with the will of the people.

In 1992, Presidential Candidate Ross Perot called it The Electronic Townhall. “It is only logical that it will become our Fourth Branch of Government”, he said.

How it works:

Before a new law, tax, or expenditure can be put on the books it must first be Ratified by the Citizens.

Existing laws can be Annulled by the same super majority required to Ratify them.

This program can be applied to every level of government and will ultimately solve every problem we have.

To prevent chaos, the basic law, our Constitution and Bill of Rights, would be exempt from review.

Citizenship is about the Ratification or Annulment of each line of every law, rule, regulation and supreme court decision on the books or that is on the docket waiting to be turned into law, policy and taxes.

Nothing short of this is going to ameliorate the present situation, nor will we get to the Stars without it.

Trump is probably a psyop. I wouldn’t be surprised if this was all part of the plan. The reason I say Trump is a psyop is because if he really stood for the people and cleaning up gov corruption, he wouldn’t have backed lockdowns and sold us out to big pharma witj operation warp speed leading to jab mandates. When given the opportunity to show if he really was for the people, he proved not to be. So likely, he’s controlled opposition.
