George W. Bush and his Republican Party used fear tactics throughout two presidential terms. This allowed them to pass an unconstitutional law which continues to eliminate freedoms and personal rights for all Americans. The tragic events on 9/11 began a legacy which has changed our nation. America is less respected and less “great” than it was 17 years ago. The ‘so-called’ Patriot Act gave our corrupt government an opportunity to revoke the fourth amendment.

A provision of that law, FISA, Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, is up for renewal, and is supported by your illegitimate president.

There is no question that Trump detests the Constitution and the rights it offers to all Americans. His America is white and wealthy; the majority has no value, and does not deserve the rights guaranteed by the “law of the land.”

Although the wording of FISA requires the NSA to use the law for surveillance of foreign nationals only, we have learned that this government agency cannot be trusted. The NSA was exposed for searching through phones and other electronic devices of American citizens.

Trump’s entire basis for approving this tool of a fascist government is his claim that the “Golden Showers Dossier” would never have been released to the media if FISA had been applied to Christopher Steele and his document. Of course he once again fails to understand laws or anything else about government. His biggest failure is ignoring the fact that the United States is not the only nation in the world. He and his Republican cronies continue to believe that America is the only important country on the planet.

The truth is that we have the least informed citizens in the world. I constantly write about Trump’s lack of intelligence and the fact that he is unfit to be our nation’s president. Sadly, he represents the failure of millions of other Americans. This is the reason Trump is now in a position of power and is harming not only our nation, but the world.

An American government would repeal the Patriot Act. The current party in power would prefer to repeal the Bill of Rights.

Please spread the truth, you will be offering a service to your fellow man. Stop the growth of fascism.
