The "Ism" Blitzkrieg on America: Will it Wreck the Republic?

HEADS-UP. I can only hope that Mr. Trump has wisely forgotten this dangerously dumb idea. Continuing Obama's efforts to federalize the nation's police departments can only lead to irreversible federal tyranny.
The imposition of Nat'l IDs by 10/1/20, the foolish adoption of the 17th Amendment in 1913, the feds usurping State authority over gun control/regulation, the growing menace of globalism and other alien "isms" in both gov't and education, the brazen & relentless subversion of our republic by most of "our" self-serving representatives, the cancerous deep state lawlessness, the mindless and self-destructive budgetary profligacy, etc. are now entrenched realities. In short, it is now, and has been for some time, a full-on alien "ism" assault by the Left on the very foundations of our constitutional republic, our traditional values, public virtue, Rule of Law and free enterprise. And they are winning bigly!
Federalizing the nation's police forces would be the final nail in the coffin for local control over Justice and Law & Order. In truth, with all these furious and unrelenting ideological assaults on the foundational principle of dual federal-State authority and on both the sovereignty and preeminence of the individual citizen, our now barely recognizable constitutional republic has degenerated into the stuff of mythology. We now have what the framers warned us against: a "national" vs a "federal" government. If that doesn't scare you, it bloody well should! NOT AT ALL what the founders designed or envisioned.
Government C-O-N-T-R-O-L is the name of the game, folks, and inch by painful inch Leviathan and its corporate and media toadies are transforming this once vibrant republic into a dictatorial monstrosity of Orwellian proportions. We've been repeatedly warned and most of us, seduced by snake oil political marketeers who represent those toxic "isms", have continued to ignore those warnings. Uncensored history doesn't lie. The "isms" advocates do. Alien "isms" DON'T WORK and needlessly kill millions of innocents, something history has already taught us over and over again.
Will enough of us emerge from our somnambulance, apathy and disengagement long enough to both recognize and convincingly confront these challenges to our Liberty? Being more a realist than a Pollyanna, I have to say that I have serious doubts that a majority of Americans today are even aware of--or even care about--this insidious transformation.
History is clear. Such disengagement, ignorance and carelessness are a recipe for disunion, all manner of civil tumult and, yes, totalitarianism and enslavement for those who blindly yield to or otherwise accommodate these threats. Jefferson said it best, "Our Constitution was made for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other; if a nation expects to be ignorant and free...it expects what never was and never will be."
As the disaster we see unfolds, at some point soon I foresee the inescapable need for a well-organized "Operation Pitch Fork" march of millions on DC to demand the restoration of constitutional order, a political condition entirely irrelevant and of scant interest to most of our elected officials and to those who now rule the unelected federal bureaucracy--and us.
For the last 10+ years, whenever I visit DC it no longer excites my patriotism; the impressive gleaming buildings no longer inspire me or occasion a sense of awe. And that is truly disheartening. For me, it is now an alien shambles quite out of touch with our founding principles and nearly entirely disconnected from We the People, its creators. When I view the boulevards and august buildings of the capital, the Reichstag and the horrors that followed always come to mind. For me, and I suspect for our founders were they alive today, the DC luster has long ago faded. On the sunniest of days, I see foreboding darkness enveloping the capital, and sense real trepidation. It's a facade, behind which is hidden a millions-strong throng of essentially uninspired and, for the most part, luke-warm patriotic government employees eagerly awaiting the rich rewards of retirement. The concept of federal civil servants and representative elected officials has become an anachronism. Hidden too are the myriad conspiracies and subversive activities usually associated with a dictatorship, not a constitutional republic.
At some point, we either awaken to the terrible threats to our Liberty or accept our fate as obedient wards of Big Brother. The only other peaceful option is to break away and form our own constitutional republic(s). Remember we are free men and women, but only so long as we are willing to defend that freedom to our last breath.
