Supreme Instigator

By Tammy Derouin

Our society has been ignoring their gut feelings.  We began to make excuses and tried to rationalize what was happening to us.  Maybe it was because we couldn’t handle the fact that we were being targeted and abused by our very own government.  The people we elected turned against us. Much like being in an abusive relationship, we ignored the signs, covered up what we did see and then made excuses for what we were seeing and could not hide. 

It can take time to come to terms with the facts, especially when a trust has been broken. It’s difficult to admit that someone you thought had your best interest in mind actually used his power to undermine your independence and possibly your existence.  If you are a survivor, you come to terms with reality and then you do something about it.  But until we, as a nation, are ready to admit we have a problem, life is only going to get worse.

The Constitution is an annoying obstacle for the executive. It doesn’t give him free will to do what he wants, so he pretends it doesn’t exist.  We have allowed this to happen.  He acts like a king or a dictator rather than a president.  He does not wish to share power with the other branches.  He certainly doesn’t like it when his power is challenged.   

We have become too accustomed to the overreach of power by the executive.  We now fear him and the oppressive government we have allowed him to put into place.  We have yet to learn that ignoring his actions will not make them go away.  We should be learning that ignoring such overreaches only makes him stronger.  Many have become targets because they speak out against his actions or work to prevent his party from staying in power.

I’d love to see a newspaper devote its entire front page to the scandals and abuses of this administration, on a daily basis.  The front page would look like a puzzle.  A puzzle makes sense once all the pieces are connected.  But, would the front page be enough?  An additional section could be called the Mystery Piece Page, for those inevitable pieces of the puzzle that get lost. Eventually, they are found and the puzzle begins to make more sense. Mystery Pieces would help answer why events are created by the Supreme Instigator.  Why does he stir the pot in an attempt to cause problems?

All the answers would come together, whether he’s working the global stage, the national stage or showing off his expertise at pot stirring at the local level.  All events cause the United States to become weaker, lowers our defenses and cause turmoil among the citizens.

So, there’s the reason the main stream media will not devote any serious space or time to covering the scandalous, traitorous behavior of the current administration/regime.  This is why it is important for any power hungry individual or party to take control of the press.  This is why information, speech, personal protection devices and your movement becomes limited and ultimately controlled by the government.  You are informed it’s for your safety.  The party will do everything in their power to convince you that you are not able to think or act on your own behalf.  They will take advantage of any circumstance to persuade you that they know best.

The government fears individuals who think for themselves.  Our Bill of Rights is in place for a reason.  The Founders knew that one day man would attempt to control the citizens of the United States of America.  They also knew, as they stated it in The Declaration of Independence, “…and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.”  Enslavement breeds enslavement.  It’s easier to adjust than it is to stand up and fight.

The executive is doing exactly what he set out to do, fundamentally transform America.  How long are we going to pretend we do not see what he is doing?  How long are we going to make excuses because we can’t come to terms with his destructive behavior?  How long are we going to allow ourselves to be shackled and guided by those who wish to destroy us?

We do not need a revolution.  We need to enforce the law of the land, our Constitution.  Blood has already been shed for its establishment.  Every generation since our founding has continued to sacrifice defending liberty.  It’s up to us.  Will we stand strong or will we let the United States fall?

“The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States.”
