Over 200 years ago, we enshrined the rule of law as the only monarch in America. Tomorrow, the Senate will likely vote to shred that precedent. Democrats, "compromising" with Republicans, will act together, in a bipartisan fashion, to destroy your right to be free from search without a warrant. Barack Obama, the politician with the biggest megaphone out there, who said, "To be clear, [I] will support a filibuster of any bill that includes retroactive immunity for telecommunications companies," will likely miss the vote altogether, and will no doubt break his promise and fail to filibuster. And he will vote for final passage on the bill.
After months of fighting, Constitutionalists everywhere will lose this battle to a corrupt establishment in collusion with a lawbreaking president.
We have no choice but to hold them accountable any way we can, through attack ads, primary challenges, and and grassroots activities. On August 8th, the new Accountability Now PAC is hosting a moneybomb to support these accountability efforts. Please mark it on your calendars and donate.
Clearly, giving money to our politicians isn't solving anything.
If there's one thing history has shown us, it's that the governments (or rather the people in charge of the governments) strive to suppress the people as much as they can, it's in their own self-interest to do so... and if you think today is any different .. well, it's time to wake up.
Stripping the government of its powers and reducing its size should be everyone's number one priority, our 'golden age' has lasted for a few centures, but may as well be over soon.
