Authoritarian rule in America

The other day the president of the United States committed an egregious act to protect those who supported his election and are now cementing his total control of every aspect of this country, once a beacon of democratic principals of freedom, liberty, and justice for all.

An inspector at the Inspector General’s office found Kevin Johnson and others of Americorp had misused funds. An investigation by the FBI backed up his allegations. Kevin Johnson and the corporation presented no facts in their defense at a hearing, basically defaulting on the verdict against them. Instead Johnson called the president who had his personal “ethics” lawyer call the investigator to inform him he had one hour to decide if he wants to resign or be fired. The Attorney General was ordered to drop all charges against Americorp and Johnson.

This was around 5:15 PM. The investigator was in his car. He could not believe what was happening. The president was breaking a law which he cosponsored when he was in the Senate. The law made it mandatory for the president to present his desire to fire an IG to congress, giving them 30 days to study the merit of the firing. Although the inspector was given an hour to make a decision, 45 minutes later he was called back by the “ethics” lawyer who then fired him since the inspector did not want to resign.

The president is slowly putting him self in a position of absolute authority in our government. This is not what America was meant to be. Our founders did not risk property, liberty, and life for America to end up a dictatorship, which is where we are heading.

Do not allow this firing to slip from your memory. Think of it when ever you feel you have no time to work for changing the makeup of Sacramento’s and Washington DC’s political bent. Most of those in power now will make no effort to stop this slide to National Socialism. It is up to us to make this change. Do as much as possible to right the wrongs now going on and then put in extra effort.
