That is convenient for those who would like less focus on the Constitution, but it\u2019s also very dangerous for everyone else. Americans should today stand up for freedom of speech, or it will be gone, likely forever.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The way it works is that president Trump is portrayed as the major threat to \u2018the rule of law\u2019, which allows other people, as well as companies and organizations, to drop below the radar and devise and work on plans and schemes that threaten the country itself, and its future as a nation ruled by its laws.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Bob Woodward\u2019s book \u201cFear: Trump in the White House\u201d and the anonymous op-ed published in the NYT a day later serve as a good reminder of these dynamics. If you succeed in confirming people\u2019s idea that Trump is such an unhinged idiot that an unelected cabal inside the White House is needed to save the nation from the president it elected, you\u2019re well on your way.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Well on your way to separate the country from its own laws, that is. Not on your way to saving it. You can\u2019t save America by suspending its Constitution just because that suits your particular political goals or points of view.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u2026click on the above link to read the rest of the article\u2026<\/p>\n<p><\/center><center><\/center><center><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ritual Burial of the US Constitution Winslow Homer Salt Kettle, Bermuda 1899 In the wake of a number of the Lehman and 9\/11 commemorations in America, and as a monster storm is once again threatening to cause outsize damage, we find ourselves at a pivotal point in time, which will decide how the country [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[6586,135,160,1493,301,378,2001,577,13924,9252,5177,10522,819],"class_list":["post-37721","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-liberty","tag-alex-jones","tag-cia","tag-constitution","tag-facebook","tag-fbi","tag-google","tag-julian-assange","tag-nsa","tag-raul-ilargi-meijer","tag-silicon-valley","tag-the-automatic-earth","tag-trump","tag-twitter"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37721","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=37721"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37721\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":37722,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37721\/revisions\/37722"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=37721"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=37721"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=37721"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
