Why can’t we conscientiously object to taxes?
Mike Pence Comes Out Against Marijuana Banking Bill That Would Actually Save Taxpayers Money
Vice President Mike Pence took to Lou Dobbs Tonight on Fox News earlier this week to gripe that Democrats were attempting to include legislation related to marijuana and banking in the latest coronavirus relief bill.
“I heard the other day the bill mentions marijuana more than it mentions jobs,” Pence said to Dobbs. “The American people don’t want some pork-barrel bill coming out of the Congress when we’ve got real needs for working-class families.”
Maybe he’s trying to remind everybody that Joe Biden isn’t the only vice president who’s still resisting marijuana legalization?
There are two ironies here. First, the bill Pence is complaining about makes it possible for cannabis businesses to safely engage in banking in states where cannabis is legal, which helps those “working-class families” who rely on the cannabis industry. Second, the bill he’s referring to will actually save taxpayers money, unlike much of the rest of this relief legislation.
3 Ways Human Psychology is Being Exploited to Create an Obedient, Self-Policing Society
Things are changing. Rapidly. So, get used to it, and don’t look back, because as we march into this brave new world together, the pressure and stress of the situation is going to affect people’s mental health and personalities in more dramatic ways.
The human psyche is built to withstand only a certain amount of pressure, and in our over-connected world, during a global crisis, the stressful stimuli we’re soaking up in a single day is astronomical. The mind has a few coping mechanisms, like fight or flight, cognitive dissonance, denial, Stockholm syndrome, etc.; but in a time like this, you’re likely to experience it all.
As the chronic stress grinds on, with no end in sight, it wears us down emotionally, physically, and mentally, and in this state we regress into more habitual, subconsciously driven behaviors, and the mind becomes very easy to manipulate. To the interrogator or torturer, sustained stress is the key to unlocking the mind and the key to creating obedience and conformity.

THE JUNK SCIENCE COPS USE TO DECIDE YOU’RE LYING
The search for a foolproof method of lie detection has a “long history,” said Richard Leo, a professor of law and psychology at the University of San Francisco School of Law and an expert on interrogation practices. “The search for some way to be able to read body language, demeanor, vocal pitch, gestures and then infer with a high degree of accuracy whether someone is telling the truth.” It just doesn’t exist, he said. He likens many of the claims about human lie detection to claims of psychic ability. “This reminds me of psychics and the lottery. If there was a psychic and they could see what the lottery numbers are, that would just be gold, right? Why wouldn’t they win $400 million when the Powerball is up there?”
Police State 2020!
In the Midst of a Police Brutality Epidemic, Tone Deaf Dems Nominate Queen of Police State for VP
Someone intuitive once said that insanity can be defined by doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result. This pretty much describes the United States political process in 2020 perfectly. Every four years, most Americans rally at the polls, get behind their political football team and claim that if their person wins, all we be good. If their person does not win, it will be four years of hell. In reality, however, no matter who wins, the police state grows, wars continue, and your rights are diminished. Nothing highlights this scenario quite like the Democratic nomination of Kamala Harris — whose made her career cheerleading the police state — in the middle of a police brutality epidemic.
In short, Harris’ entire political career can be summed up in five simple words: Kamala Harris is a cop.
Unless you have been under a rock for the last three months, you have probably noticed the nightly clashes across the country between protesters and police. While there are certainly a handful of violent agitators among the protesters, the majority of them are peaceful. However, the fact that they are peaceful has been no deterrent from more police brutality.
As Americans take to the street to protest police brutality that unfolds across the country on a daily basis, they are being met with even more of it. There is no end in sight and the situation keeps escalating. One would think that the Democratic party would see this and seek to nominate someone who has a track record of fighting for civil rights and not the police state. However, as Harris’ nomination for Vice President illustrates, one would be wrong.
Harris has catapulted herself into political stardom by stepping on the backs of those she locked away, some under false pretense, and countless others for victimless crimes. Though she claims to be against the drug war now, Harris spent over a decade ruining lives by systematically kidnapping and caging nonviolent people for possessing substances deemed illegal by the state.
She not only bragged about it, but she mocked those who sought to reform the system suggesting they are naive sloganeers who do not understand crime prevention.
San Diego City Councilmember Threatens Residents, Demands Sheriff Arrest “People Who Aren’t Wearing Masks” and “Who Aren’t Social Distancing”
San Diego City Councilmember Jennifer Campbell on Tuesday threatened Ocean Beach residents: Follow the authoritarian Covid rules… or else!
“Behave or you’re gonna be in big trouble!” the hysterical Democrat tyrant said during a presser.
Jennifer Campbell screamed at residents on Tuesday and told them if they didn’t wear masks and social distance, more people were going to die.
“This is the worst virus in the history of medicine!” the retired physician screamed.
To be clear, a grand total of 602 people in San Diego County out of a population of approximately 3.5 million have died from Covid-19 since March.
Campbell then demanded that the County Sheriff arrest people who aren’t wearing masks and who aren’t social distancing.
The System Is Rigged: Qualified Immunity Is How the Police State Stays in Power
The system is rigged, the government is corrupt, and “we the people” continue to waste our strength by fighting each other rather than standing against the tyrant in our midst.
Because the system is rigged, because the government is corrupt, and because “we the people” remain polarized and divided, the police state will keep winning and “we the people” will keep losing.
Because the system is rigged and the U.S. Supreme Court—the so-called “people’s court”—has exchanged its appointed role as a gatekeeper of justice for its new role as maintainer of the status quo, there will be little if no consequences for the cops who brutalize and no justice for the victims of police brutality.
Because the system is rigged, there will be no consequences for police who destroyed a private home by bombarding it with tear gas grenades during a SWAT team raid gone awry, or for the cop who mistakenly shot a 10-year-old boy after aiming for and missing the non-threatening family dog, or for the arresting officer who sicced a police dog on a suspect who had already surrendered.
This is how unarmed Americans keep dying at the hands of militarized police.
