'Last night, like many Americans, I was shocked to see that former President of the United States, Donald Trump, had his home raided by the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI). This is a profound turning point in Western history. For the better part of the past two centuries, the U.S. has enjoyed unprecedented stability because it did not raid the homes of political rivals. The rest of the democratic world looked upon the United States as a model for successful representative government. To watch a politically motivated raid on a former president essentially showed the rest of the world that the U.S. is no longer the model it claimed to be. It so devastatingly rotten to its very core that anyone with eyes can see that unelected officials run the United States – not the people… not its representatives… not its Constitution.
For those who hate Trump, it is important to note that this raid is more than just Trump. Trump is a polarizing figure in American politics. Trump is also a billionaire. This is not an ordinary, well intentioned political protester who walked the Halls of Congress on January 6th getting hunted down by the FBI a year later at his plumbing job. This is a powerful person in his own right with nearly seventy-five million supporters. The fact that they can attempt the gulag treatment on Trump should be a massive wake-up to any powerless, ordinary citizen with an unpopular view. They are coming for you, next.
For those who may be inclined to call me a Trump apologist, I am not. I have been critical of “45” for years. Like most dissidents, I am disappointed in Donald Trump for many reasons. The list is long. He should have been more aggressive regarding the removal of far-left activists within the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigations – especially after the very obvious targeting of his own 2016 campaign. He trusted the military far too much, despite mountains of evidence that the senior leadership of the military had been radically transformed by the preceding Obama Administration. The Israel worship was galling. I kept hearing about black unemployment, the freedom of A$AP Rocky, and Trump’s friendship with Kanye West, while reading about thousands of dissidents throughout the United States imprisoned for standing up to federal overreach. Most angering was Trump’s absolute inaction during the extraordinary riots of 2020. He should have ordered the National Guard to fix bayonets and any officer that pushed back – as General Miley reportedly did – should have been sent to a command in Northern Alaska or a cell in Gitmo. Trump apologists like to say that, had Trump did that, the media would have portrayed him as a tyrant. So what? The media already portrayed him as a dictator. He should have acted the part and saved civilized society.

The United States is dead. It cannot be revived. This is the regime flexing on you, the worthless American voter. The choice is simple: stay on the Titanic as its newfound masters order you to swab the decks of oncoming water or jump ship by means of secession. If you wish to keep the United States intact, so be it. You should move to a Yankee blue state and enjoy the future that your demographic replacement will ensure. You might as well get used to those laws now. Meanwhile, if you are a Southerner flying the American flag, you are part of the problem. The most important flag flying over your home should be your state flag. Displaying imagery that expresses your bended knee toward Washington, DC, is an indication of your loyalties. You have chosen the Union over the Founding Principles. You have chosen elected bureaucrats over your own people. You have shown that when we need you, you will not be there for us.
The raid on Trump should be a wake-up call that the Yankee government cannot be reformed. It is gone. The Constitution will not protect him. The Constitution will not protect you. Secession will.'
