At least in 2023.\\nYes, during the COVID panic they got away with murder. Literal negligent homicide (at best), in the case of blue state rulers like Andrew Cuomo, Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer and others who\\xa0dumped COVID patients in nursing homes\\xa0to infect and kill the most vulnerable citizens of their states. This nicely inflated the death statistics, to justify mail-in voting and vote harvesting for the 2020 races.\\nBut robust kids and teens were caged up at home, while their grandparents in nursing homes gasped out their last breaths on ventilators, denied any farewell visitors, blessings by clergy, or even Christian burial at the end. They were bagged up and burned as medical waste, like aborted babies from clinics.\\nChurches were padlocked and gathered dust, while casinos, liquor stores, and abortion clinics were deemed \\u201cessential,\\u201d and throbbed with financial life.\\nSo much for \\u201cPublic Health,\\u201d a phrase that deserves only bitter laughter. Anyone who still speaks it with a straight face is either a grifter or a dupe. (Please read\\xa0this essay\\xa0explaining why those two words are the name for a false god we\\u2019re obliged to mock and despise.)\\nFBI Show Trials for Citizens it Entrapped\\nThose governors also got away with blatant tyranny. Whitmer violated her state\\u2019s constitution with her state of emergency locking citizens in their homes, as Michigan\\u2019s highest court ruled. Not that some stinking constitution stopped the FBI from faking a kidnapping plot against her, and recruiting hapless citizens to entrap into its plan. Thank the good lord that three of these FBI victims\\xa0have just been acquitted, unlike those January 6 protestors goaded to break the law by FBI-controlled agitators.\\nNobody actually tried to conduct a citizens arrest of Michigan\\u2019s tyrannical governor, except those whom the FBI aggressively lobbied and funded, in a desperate effort to create right wing \\u201cdomestic terrorists\\u201d for the purpose of show trials. I wonder what our founding fathers would have done with a Royal governor who tried what Whitmer did.\\nPay No Attention to the Tyrant Behind the Curtain\\nBut at the moment, we aren\\u2019t all cowering at home in pitiful fear of a Chinese bioweapon, wearing useless face diapers when we creep out to purchase our kibble, or sticking out our arms to take an abortion-tainted experimental mRNA gene therapy.\\nMaybe we\\u2019re less prone to just flinching and cowering when our rulers pronounce the magic shibboleth that\\u2019s supposed to make all our constitutional and human rights disappear. When the Wizard of Oz booms: \\u201cPublic \\u2026 health!\\u201d some of us insist on looking behind the curtain.\\nA New Mexican Standoff\\nSo when New Mexico governor declared that \\u201cgun violence\\u201d (more agitprop nonsense language) was such a threat to \\u201cpublic health\\u201d that by executive order she was suspending citizens\\u2019 gun rights in one of her cities, she didn\\u2019t get the reaction she expected: Servile, cringing obedience from the citizens, adoring tributes from the media, and a cascade of gift certificates for pedicures and pumpkin lattes. Instead she got what she richly deserved: defiance and scorn.\\nHundreds of citizens appeared in public, peaceably displaying their weapons as permitted under actual New Mexico law. The relevant sheriff announced that he wouldn\\u2019t enforce an unconstitutional order. Even gun-grabbing underg"
