That followed America lost some of its finest young men and women but something else happened on 9 11. Americans are forced to surrender some of their basic rights facing the threat of Terror attacks and amid the 2001 Anthrax attacks President George Bush passed the USA Patriot Act also known as the
Uniting and strengthening America by providing appropriate tools required to intercept and obstruct terrorism Act of 2001. now under that act the war on terror became not just a foreign war but also a domestic one and in order to do this the government was given powers to violate the rights of citizens in ways
That were not possible before this included for example new Government powers to conduct domestic surveillance to launch investigations to bypass due process and while we can debate over whether it was justified or necessary America did the very thing that President Eisenhower warned against in his farewell address on January 17
1961. Eisenhower said that if Government overreach was not addressed it could one day undermine the basic freedoms of this country sought or unsought by the military industrial complex the potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist we must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or
Democratic processes we should take nothing for granted that wasn’t just Eisenhower either President John F Kennedy also talked about this during a speech before the American newspaper Publishers Association there was an April 27 1961. we decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far outweighed the
Dangers which are cited to justify it and there is very grave Danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and concealment what a significant statement that we should be cautious that our own want for
Security could be seized upon by people hungry for power that we can knowingly sacrifice our freedoms for security Eisenhower was warning that we allowed the expansion of domestic security to override basic freedoms of what would happen we opened the door to what would be the first of many cases of this
Whereas JFK warned our want for security more of it would be seized upon by those anxious to expand their powers we’ve now watched the domestic Terror label expand we now see Evangelical Christians getting labeled as being terrorists the Maga Republicans getting labeled we’ve watched the use of emergencies the
Covid-19 pandemic and otherwise get used to lock Americans in their homes to mandate face masks vaccines to censor news stories that question the efficacy of the official claims even to change the rules of presidential elections with things like Universal mail and ballots and with this new method of declaring a crisis then using
It politically there’s a growing concern that other issues are going to be used similarly for example the Resurgence of covid-19 the climate crisis but this all hinges on a key question one of those is that you know does the United States need to address this sooner rather than later maybe
Can an emergency order suspend constitutional rights now we might be finally getting an answer on this question protections against illegal searches and seizures if you remember right those were of course undermined through digital surveillance protections on legal procedures tend to depend on which judge you get we’ve seen that constitutional rights on Free
Speech can be undermined through public private Partnerships for example the government pressuring Twitter or Facebook to censor and sure the government cannot censor us directly but well apparently they can tell a private company to do it on their behalf but then there are more visible violations to the Constitution
Violations of our rights as Americans there’s also a line somewhere where if crossed is just a bit too noticeable a bit too far and in New Mexico it looks like they finally found where that line is New Mexico Governor Michelle lujin Grisham issued an executive order last Friday it puts people’s second amendment
Rights on hold for at least 30 days as of now nobody is allowed to carry a firearm in public in Albuquerque or in the surrounding area she used the shooting death of a kid outside a baseball stadium as the excuse and she’s launching this gun grab or gun ban essentially through an experimental
Legal process established by covid-19 issuing a public health emergency order watch it unconstitutional to say you cannot exercise your carry license with one exception and that is if there’s an emergency and I’ve declared an emergency for a temporary amount of time I can invoke additional Powers no constitutional right in my view
Including my oath is intended to be absolute but it looks like this is already failing the local police chief and the Very Democrat City said he will not enforce it the county sheriff said he’s an easy about it due to possible violations of the Constitution the district attorney also declared that he
Will not enforce the gun ban in fact stated as an officer of the court I cannot and will not enforce something that is clearly unconstitutional even pro-second Amendment organizations include the National Rifle Association Gun Owners of America they’re preparing to sue the New Mexico Governor gun owners are rallying in Albuquerque with
Their firearms and open Defiance of the gun ban well everyone that’s it for YouTube for the rest of the episode come join us on Epic TV we’re a flash sale right now 25 cents for a week we have great content coming up we’ll be talking with someone
From Gun Owners of America about some of the challenges to the allegedly unconstitutional things being done to our gun rights we’ll also we talked with Dr Robert Malone about the new heiress variant to covid-19 and the new vaccine they’re rolling out for it and some of the different concerns with that let’s
Say can’t say too much because we’re on YouTube for this again come join us on Epic TV epochtv.com Link in the description a lot of great content there a lot of other good stuff and again these important discussions I’ll see you there people from 160 countries and legally
Cross the U.S Mexico border and get themselves up to border patrol but what about the ones who evade border patrol these are known as the got away you can safely assume that anybody that went through the extra effort to avoid U.S border Patrol was not Asylum Seeker
By default it may not be today it may not be tomorrow but somewhere doesn’t work if somebody rapes and kills somebody and we find out that they came through here on my watch that’s unacceptable these men had surrounded my house they were banging on my back door they were
Banging on my front door I can’t understand it unless you’re out here seeing it every day dead bodies is it wrong to ask people to come to your front door or your home it’s fine then why would it be wrong to ask people to come to the front door of our nation
Their primary goal is to circumvent the checkpoints go undetected people that do not want to surrender those are going to be the potential terrorists the criminals the real threat to the U.S we’re hoping the federal government would step in and do something but they didn’t we have no clue who they are or
Where they’re going that’s the scary part Foreign [Applause]
