Do what you're told

Do what you’re told!

As America is still wondering where we stand on the election front, we must also ask what’s next on the lockdown front . . . and the two are deeply intertwined.

In Italy, where coronavirus rates reportedly (if you can believe these media reports and the numbers the governments release) skyrocketed in the spring, a new crackdown is in place.

A report in Il Giornale says residents in coronavirus lockdown “red zones” could face up to six years in prison if they violate the quarantine edicts.  The report says all travel, except for buying food and other necessary goods is prohibited, including visiting friends and relatives.

Breitbart reports “Those caught lying to officials while trying to visit a relative or friend face a prison sentence of one to six years. Those positive for coronavirus who leave their homes and infect others can be tried for culpable epidemic transmission and face sentences between six months and three years.

“A three month to 18-month prison sentence can be handed down to those who refuse to respect the lockdown rules, including fines from €500 to €5,000.

“According to the Italian Health Ministry, all non-essential travel outside a home in a red zone requires the individual to carry forms provided by the government to justify their movements.”

Carry your papers?  Sounds much like Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union!

Meanwhile in Ireland, the government imposed a nationwide lockdown in late October, shutting down nonessential shops, limiting restaurants to takeout service, and ordering people to stay within 3 miles of their homes for the six weeks.

While the death of a single loved one is sad, the numbers in Ireland simply don’t warrant a national lockdown. Leading into their lockdown, the infection rate was 279 cases per 100,000 people. Doing that math, that’s .279%!!!

Are we headed in the same direction?

If Joe Biden sits in the Oval Office in just over two months, it looks like it.

Biden has already indicated his intent to put a national mask mandate into place, and if he can’t do it himself, he’s made it crystal clear he’ll lean on state governors to do it for him.

Biden has talked about his plan to release “an army” of 100,000 contact tracers to probe into your private life.

And on Monday, the newest member of Biden’s Covid Advisory Board told CNBC he was all in favor of a national European-style lockdown.

“We could pay for a package right now to cover all of the wages, lost wages for individual workers, for losses to small companies, to medium-sized companies or city, state, county governments. We could do all of that,” Michale Osterholm said. “If we did that, then we could lock down for four-to-six weeks.”

The damage to the United States economy is already devastating. And now there is talk of a four- to six-week national shutdown, denying Americans the right to earn a living, travel freely, and worship!

Depression and suicide rates up.

More and more businesses are closing daily, unable to survive without customers.

Our children falling behind in their education at all levels.

The government mandates, forced vaccinations, and multi-trillion dollar bailouts are not the answer, and the real impact of these actions is the loss of our freedoms and liberties.

What does America’s “sweetheart” doctor have to say about Americans standing up pushing back on an authoritarian government? Speaking on Thursday about the coronavirus, Dr. Anthony Fauci said the American “independent spirit” has gotten in the way and “now is the time to do what you’re told.”

Fellow patriot, enough is enough!

We’re not obligated to “do what you’re told” and throw our liberties away.

If fact, I’ll repeat something I said over a dozen years ago: “The time has come to act on these words. May future generations look back on our work and say that these were men and women who, in a moment of great crisis, stood up to the politicians, the opinion-molders, and the establishment, and saved their country.”

And I’ll also say this now: it’s time to stop thinking these things can’t happen here. It’s happening all around us, and it’s time to stop it!

Sign your petition to your governor now, demanding they stop the lockdowns and open up our country.

Let them know we will not simply “do what we’re told,” but rather we will continue to campaign for liberty for all!
