The Theme is Freedom

"The fabric of American empire ought to rest on the solid basis of THE CONSENT OF THE PEOPLE. The streams of national power ought to flow from that pure, original fountain of all legitimate authority."--Alexander Hamilton

"After all, Sir, we must submit to this idea, that the true principle of a republic is, that the people should choose whom they please to govern them, Tarmac Meetings be damned! Say--what is a tarmac, anyway?"

As Secretary Hamilton is no longer a subject, he cannot speak for the British. But James Delingpole can:Three Years Ago We Voted Brexit.:
"Britain in 2019 is a Third World country. It’s a Banana Republic. It’s a corrupt oligarchy. It’s Albania. It’s Russia. It’s Burkina Faso. It’s Venezuela. It’s all those countries in the world that we used to point at smugly congratulating ourselves that we’re not like them because Magna Carta, because English common law, because international transparency index, because the Queen — but which we can’t any more because we are like them.

Not exactly like them, obviously. No, what we’ve done is adopted many of their worst vices — the venality, the lack of democratic accountability, the utter disregard for ordinary people, the  financial corruption, and so on — but then dressed them up in a pinstripe suit and a bowler hat and a furled umbrella from Swaine Adeney Brigg in the pretence that everything is still OK.

But everything is not OK.

The Establishment in this country is as scheming and sinister and mendacious and self-serving and hateful and contemptuous and intransigent as the Establishments in all the more obviously corrupt and evil and dangerous countries in the world to which we used to feel superior. It’s just much better at masking its vileness.

Just as a brief thought experiment, ask yourself how we’d view it if China had given its people a referendum and then executed a complete reverse ferret when the people gave the wrong result. Or if Iran had behaved similarly badly. Or the Democratic Republic of Congo.

We’d all condemn it (presuming that we’d been made aware of it) as just the kind of dodgy behaviour you’d expect from Communist dictatorships/Islamic republics/African sweatboxes. We’d be disgusted; appalled; aghast that the regime in question could get away with such crimes against democracy.

Yet somehow, mystifyingly, bizarrely, when our own government does it gets pretty much a free pass from our mainstream media, which for decades we’ve told ourselves is robust and fearless but which is in fact so compliant in might just as well be Soviet-era Pravda or Radio Pyongyang. ,,,

We don’t watch the BBC. We’ve given up on the newspapers. We don’t trust the Westminster politicians. And quite a few of us have been lucky enough not to benefit from a university “education”.

We voted Brexit. We knew what the Brexit we voted for would look like when we got it. And so far, we definitely haven’t got it — or anything close.

It’s just as well that one or two people in Parliament seem to be waking up to what’s going on — because until they do there is never going to be peace and stability in this land.

Boris Johnson, in the likely event he becomes Prime Minister, is in the fortunate position of entering the role with no difficult choice.

Either he delivers swift, full Brexit. Or he delivers swift, full Brexit.

There really are no other options. The people decided this three years ago. The people must prevail." …….

Nearly three years ago in America also, Donald J. Trump won thirty and a half popular votes out of fifty.

Yet we see the Mueller Fraud, a continuation of the Deep State Coup against the choice of the American people, despite having officially finished recently, is still being used to usurp the peaceful transfer of executive power. And many parts of the government are still in open insurrection against the People's voice.

President Trump ran on a platform of regaining control of our sovereign borders and re-establishing the concept of citizenship. But the Uni-Party no longer believes in borders, citizenship or America, for that matter.

Just this week Acting DHS Secretary Kevin McAleenan leaked the details of enforcement actions, endangering his own agents.

Where does a Cabinet Secretary, any Cabinet Secretary, derive their  power?

Hamilton and the Constitution say from the People. Political power derives from the Consent of the Governed. If Kevin McAleenan or any other cabinet officer do not wish to help the president carry out the policies he ran on and the people voted for, he must resign. He can then run for office himself. In that way, people retain control of their government, not the government retaining control of the People.

But to stay and obstruct is tyranny.

Educated people, by which I mean not today's college graduates, understand that the 3/5ths clause of the Constitution was an anti-slavery provision. That said, today our Elites consider Normal Americans as 3/5ths of a person and illegal aliens as full citizens, just as Britain's establishment prefer their EU overlords and Muslim colonizers over their fellow subjects.

Jefferson and Franklin liked the French. Adams and Hamilton liked the English. But they would all be shocked to see a ruling class that prefers foreigners over countrymen. Or perhaps not--it's just another form of tyranny and they understood the Urge to Tyranny better than any.

Now it's our turn.

Freedom UPDATES:

"We often read nowadays of the valor or audacity with which some rebel attacks a hoary tyranny or an antiquated superstition. There is not really any courage at all in attacking hoary or antiquated things, any more than in offering to fight one's grandmother. The really courageous man is he who defies tyrannies young as the morning and superstitions fresh as the first flowers."--G.K. Chesterton
