It’s tempting to just give up and ignore politics altogether, but you can’t ignore anarchy and tyranny. It will find us if we don’t come up with a plan to fortify red islands that are sanctuaries from both anarchy and tyranny. I discuss some of the latest stories of anarchy, how there is no right to self-defense any more, and how juvenile crime is making major cities unlivable. Then we focus on the tyranny aspect with Steve Friend, a former FBI agent who became a whistleblower about the weaponization of the agency against conservatives. Friend warns that the FBI continues to get worse as Republicans fail to deter the agency on a single issue. He feels as if his personal sacrifice was wasted by grandstanding Republicans who wanted nothing more than sound bites but will not follow his policy ideas. He also makes the case for why the GOP should allow the FISA 702 law to expire at the end of the year. Sadly, most Republicans still support it. Finally, he talks about the need for red states to erect barriers to FBI tyranny that will make it too costly for the bureau to target us as it is doing now.
