And we’re supposed to not only accept without question that scenario, but conclude that Napolitano, with an obvious and important vital interest in a high-stakes game reaching to the White House, and an intelligence-gathering apparatus that makes Orwell’s Big Brother appear like inept neighborhood snoop Gladys Kravitz on “Bewitched” by comparison, was flat-out uninformed and waiting for The Washington Post to notice? Based on what the auditors admit they did not find evidence on, as opposed to finding evidence to corroborate such claims ... ?

I've observed before, this is nothing short of child abuse under color of authority. It’s also an insidious form of cultural brainwashing, where references to that which the founders deemed “necessary to the security of a free State” are erased from the collective memory. It’s mass purging, not all that dissimilar to a practice perfected by the murderous tyrant Stalin, as illustrated in “The Commissar Vanishes,” and which Orwell chillingly elaborated on with his description of “unpersons.” [More]My latest JPFO Alert notes if "progressive educators" have their way, the Second Amendment will become an “unright,” vanished from the history books.
Fauci says a redefinition of fully vaccinated is ‘on the table’ [More]

An Iowa grandmother has been banished to jail, including a night in isolation, after refusing to give in to a judge's demand that she submit to a psychiatric exam and take psychotropic drugs if prescribed to mitigate her opposition to abortion, her husband has confirmed.So now all we need is a shrink who is pro-abortion and anti-gun, and we have a great alignment of opportunities to get granny adjudicated onto the prohibited persons list...all perfectly nice and legal-like.

Then Clinton draws the exact wrong message from Orwell's classic. "The goal is to make you question logic and reason and to sow mistrust toward exactly the people we need to rely on: our leaders, the press, experts who seek to guide public policy based on evidence, ourselves," she bizarrely added.
