America is on the verge of “show trials,” thanks to the statists’ desire to crush any opposition to their destruction of our liberties. It’s been just over a week into the new Biden Administration, and his Department of Homeland Security is now putting out the largest “Terror Alert” in the history of that bureaucracy. I say largest because there is no specific threat mentioned, and it would appear to be aimed at anyone with an opinion that goes against the narrative there was nothing suspicious about the 2020 presidential election. DHS issued a nationwide “terror alert,” which goes until April 30, about someone’s opinion! Now we must be on high alert about opinions, according to the Biden bureaucracy. From the alert: Information suggests that some ideologically-motivated violent extremists with objections to the exercise of governmental authority and the presidential transition, as well as other perceived grievances fueled by false narratives, could continue to mobilize to incite or commit violence. They mention no specific plot, but instead are making people weary of past events that have nothing to do with this “alert.” This is paranoia like we’ve never seen before. Deep staters like former CIA head John Brennan are further driving the fear narrative about people who don’t share the same opinions as the power structure by suggesting that, of all people, libertarians are dangerous and should be categorized along with “bigots” and “facists.” Brennan must not know that a “bigot” is someone who is intolerant of the opinions and beliefs of others, which is exactly the kind of intolerance he is practicing with his own statements. What is worse than Brennan’s words are the actions Congress could take to create a “Patriot Act 2.0” with the January 6 U.S. Capitol melee as the excuse. H.R. 350, the “Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act (DTPA),” was introduced in the House one week ago and would create a whole new “domestic” wing of the Department of Homeland Security. Patriot, we must take action NOW to stop it. Sign the petition to your U.S. Senators and Representative to oppose the so-called “Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act” which will target innocent Americans! Then, please consider pitching in $35, $50, or even $150, to give Campaign for Liberty the resources we need to stop this horrible abuse of power! Brennan, DHS, and the rest of The Deep State are now flexing their muscles in an effort to ensure perpetual control of the people. Their idea to combat these dangerous opinions is to create something even worse than the original Patriot Act, to ensure that nobody is safe to have a dissenting opinion again. The Patriot Act was rushed, overly broad, abused, and has proven to be nearly impossible to get rid of, almost 20 years later. Six years ago, the Patriot Act was renamed the USA Freedom Act, but in reality, it’s done nothing to protect our freedom. And Brennan was caught lying to Congress about how much the United States government is spying on innocent Americans. Now they’ve even created a new buzzword to describe people with dissenting opinions, including libertarians – “DVE’s” or Domestic Violent Extremists. This is all preposterous, but DHS has never made much sense in the past, so we shouldn’t expect much from them other than vague warnings about nothing in particular. If you remember, when Janet Napolitano took over that department, she created a color-coded system to remind us just how frightened we should be about a potential terrorist attack, which never came to fruition. It was Napolitano who started to warn about “domestic terror,” but also gave no evidence of her assertions, just inflammatory rhetoric about people who were upset with our federal government’s reckless foreign policy. I am afraid this administration is even more detached from reality than the Obama administration, which employed DHS Director Napolitano. We must demand an immediate end to this fear mongering about average citizens. Patriot, please sign the petition to stop H.R. 350 now before it gains any more momentum. And once you’ve done that, please consider a generous donation of $35 or more to help us get the word to Congress that H.R. 350 is a clear and present danger to our Republic. The political left may think passing a “Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act” to target Trump supporters, libertarians, and other “undesirables” will be a victory that will help them retain power and control, but they never think a single step ahead. A super-charged domestic spying apparatus, which is what H.R. 350 would create, will certainly be turned around and used on leftist groups and Democrat dissidents of a future right-wing administration. In the end, we all lose if this bill becomes law. You and I cannot let this stand, for the good of the Republic and healthy political dissent. For Liberty, Ron Paul Chairman P.S. Liberty will ultimately prevail, but not without you and me facing some tough battles. Many eyes need to be opened, and Campaign for Liberty is keeping the brushfires of liberty burning. Let’s make 2021 a historic year. Please consider a generous donation now. If you’d prefer to donate via PayPal, please click here. ________________________________________________
