NEVER "google" anything. Use a different search engine like Bing or DuckDuckGo. NEVER use the Chrome browser. Use something like Brave or Firefox instead. NEVER use gmail. Use something like ProtonMail or Outlook instead. Google not only is notorious for spying on you and selling your information, they are terrible about censoring conservative views on the search engine, which now is more of a propaganda engine. Google is an extremely evil company and should be shunned.

We already had the Second American Revolution. It was fought between 1861 and 1865 and was also known as the War Between the States. In it, the Southern states sought to uphold the limited government principles of Thomas Jefferson, but failed. What is perhaps needed now is the spirit of 1861 and secession from an overbearing central government. Perhaps the Wexit (western exit) movement in the western Canadian provinces would fit in.

I am reminded of the letter from British political philosopher Lord Acton, whose most famous quote is "power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely", wrote to General Robert E. Lee in 1866 in which he stated: "Without presuming to decide the purely legal question, on which it seems evident to me from Madison's and Hamilton's papers that the Fathers of the Constitution were not agreed, I saw in State Rights the only availing check upon the absolutism of the sovereign will, and secession filled me with hope, not as the destruction but as the redemption of Democracy. The institutions of your Republic [the United States] have not exercised on the old world the salutary and liberating influence which ought to have belonged to them, by reason of those defects and abuses of principle which the Confederate Constitution was expressly and wisely calculated to remedy. I believed that the example of that great Reform would have blessed all the races of mankind by establishing true freedom purged of the native dangers and disorders of Republics. Therefore I deemed that you were fighting the battles of our liberty, our progress, and our civilization; and I mourn for the stake which was lost at Richmond more deeply than I rejoice over that which was saved at Waterloo"

It is extreme LEFTISTS who want to damage our Capitol. In the Jan. 6 incident, the only rioter who threatened destruction of the building was known BLM / ANTIFA leader John Sullivan, a leftist instigator who urged members of the crowd to join him in invading the building, shouting "Burn it Down". And, indeed, BLM and ANTIFA have burned a lot down around the country over the past year. While another leftist plat to bomb the Capital was thwarted, the only actual bombing of the Capitol was perpetrated by an offshoot of the far left Weather Underground. Their bomb did a lot of damage outside the Senate chamber.

The US no longer has news media among the self-styled MSM. Instead we have propaganda media as biased as any that existed in Soviet Russia or Nazi Germany. Journalism is dead as a dodo at the MSM. Now they are spreading their political propaganda to their entertainment products as well. Time to turn off the propaganda tube.

HALF of Texas' wind turbines have frozen. Just what they need at a time that there is a huge demand for power. And the result is that they have rolling blackouts. This is Biden's intention for American and Cooper's for North Carolina.

Government control of domestic travel has been a feature of all communist regimes and some other totalitarian ones. The fact that Biden is considering this assault on the basic rights of free Americans is very very Soviet of him.

Wind and solar are a disaster everywhere but the climate alarmist cult tries to claim otherwise. Germany can buy some power from their neighbors Poland and France, which have not gone hog wild on wind or solar, but where could the US make up for solar and wind not producing? Does Mexico have a lot of surplus electricity? Does Canada?

Every county, including Beaufort County's Board of Education needs to reject this Marxist garbage. If not, voters need to make a wholesale change in the board itself.

The view of American history presented by this radical curriculum is the same as the view of American history that was taught in the schools of the old Soviet Union. Why are North Carolina school children to be taught Soviet dogma? It is time for county school boards to just say NO and refuse to implement this absurd propaganda.

Tillis and Burr are good examples of why the GOP has failed America. They hobnob with the beltway elite and ignore the voters back home. Both have voting records in the moderate liberal range, closer to Bernie Sanders than Ted Cruz. We need to send a real Republican to replace Burr in 2022, and Lara Trump is a very encouraging possibility. Tillis will have to wait until 2026, but then he needs to go, too.

Cesar Chavez was a huge opponent of illegal immigration, and urged his union members to turn in illegal aliens. This is the polar opposite of Biden regime policy. I wonder if his brain functions enough to comprehend that Cesar Chavez would have been a staunch opponent of Biden's immigration policies.

Facebook and Twitter were just kicked out of Uganda for censorship and election interference. It is time to do that everywhere.
