Offsite Post: ‘A Proper Louisiana Response to the Mar-A-Lago Raid’

 

A lot of folks are mad as hornets over the FBI raid of President Trump’s home, and with good cause – it appears to be a blatant violation of impartial justice, and a great example of what the late Sam Francis called anarcho-tyranny (using the power of government to dog the law-abiding while letting the law-breakers go untouched).  Such actions are a message to anyone who would dare to oppose the globalists/Marxists in woke Washington:  Stand down, or you’re next.

Thus far, the response of the Right has been something like this from Chairman Gurvich:

 

So if you want to save your country, your lifestyle, and a future for your children, vote Republican on November 8th. And if you’ve had enough of Democrat judicial tyranny, you might also wish to join the Republican Party of Louisiana.

With apologies, that ain’t gonna cut it.  There are some encouraging signs from the recent primary elections, but there simply aren’t enough strong, courageous conservatives/Republicans at the federal level who will take the appropriate steps to protect innocent people from the massive, abusive federal bureaucracy. 

Will Kevin McCarthy’s tweets promising investigations of Biden’s Justice Dept. free a single J6 protestor?

Will John Kennedy’s rhetorical zingers stop armed goons from any of the federal government’s plethora of agencies from assaulting even one innocent citizen?

Will Julia Letlow, openly bragging in a recent newsletter update to her constituents about her vote to codify into federal law the ‘right’ to contraception, H.R. 8421, (contraceptives being one of the driving forces of the sexual revolution that caused the breakup of the traditional Christian family) – will Republican turncoats like her be willing to challenge the federal deep state in any meaningful way at all?

The answer does not lie primarily at the federal level.  We should do what we can to ‘clean house’ in Washington City, but the outcome of such an undertaking is doubtful at best.  What we should do is focus on the State and local governments, ensuring that they use their powers to protect people within their jurisdictions from federal tyranny.  Daniel Horowitz provides some ideas they should pursue right now:


States must block the FBI from political persecutions: Republicans like to direct our attention to the next federal election while obfuscating the fact that they already command supermajority control in 20 or so states. For the most part, the federal government is irremediably broken and will not be fixed with an election. States need to interpose against federal tyranny. State legislatures should convene emergency sessions and pass laws barring the FBI from operating within their states to investigate or apprehend political dissidents.

 

One such bill has been introduced in Oklahoma by state Senator Nathan Dahm. SB 1166, the “Prohibition on Political Prisoners in Oklahoma Act,” would prohibit the federal government from transporting through the state any January 6 prisoner not charged with a felony. Remember, this is not just about Trump. The Biden administration views Trump’s supporters as the #1 terrorist threat and will continue to target them for contrived or nebulous crimes motivated 100% by political persecution.

 

Creation of state guards: Florida recently created a state guard that cannot be federalized. Other states must follow suit and make it clear they will use the guard to confront any federal officials – be they FBI, DHS, ATF, or IRS – who prima facie target political opponents.

 

Sheriff’s posses: Connected to the previous point, we must begin declaring sanctuary counties in which sheriffs will work together with the citizenry to form citizen posse units. Their job will be to defend victims of federal persecution within the counties at a moment’s notice.

For those who believe the lie that federal actions cannot be limited by the States in any way at all, he offers the following helpful reminder:
