This is a clip from our show SYSTEM UPDATE, now airing every weeknight at 7pm ET on Rumble.
The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 were acts of unspeakable evil. The lives taken were awful tragedies. But the evil and tragedy of 9/11 were only compounded many times over by how we reacted then and since.We have allowed terror to take us over. Over and over again, we have let the government use terror to manipulate us into surrendering our precious liberties for the promise of safety.And yet our power-hungry protectors never seem to deliver on that promise. Both the Global War on Terror and the Global War on COVID have proven to be abject failures.If we keep this up for much longer, we won’t have any liberties left to surrender. In that scenario, none of us (and none of our descendants) will be safe from our “protectors.”Then the terrorists will truly have won.
A bipartisan group in Congress has introduced the so-called “Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act Of 2021,†which would expand the surveillance and police powers of the national security state in the name of combatting homegrown extremism.
Progressives, conservatives, and libertarians alike must stand firm against the latest push to infringe on civil liberties in the name of combating “domestic terror.†Otherwise, sweeping powers granted amid crisis will undoubtedly be used against millions of Americans who did nothing wrong on January 6.
