3 Signs You're Living In a Police State
Plus, learn how you can help by supporting Police State, a new docudrama by Dinesh Dsouza, exclusively on Rumble.
It’s getting old.
The death, crime, inflation, war, and the continued assault on freedom and everyday Americans.
Even the political arguments lost their luster, on both sides.
We’ve watered down words like hypocrisy, gaslighting, fascism, and others, to describe presidents, politicians, and corporations.
In response, the pot calls the kettle black.
But we can’t all be fascists, and we can’t all be commies.
Perhaps that’s the point.
To dilute these concepts in hopes people will ignore them.
But thanks to the internet, we don’t have to make drawn-out arguments with political jargon to see the US is steadily becoming a police state.
We can just look around and see we’re losing our basic freedom such as our right to free speech, a fair trial, and the right to protect ourselves.
But that doesn’t mean we should give up.
You can help by supporting those bringing these stories to light by purchasing Dinesh D’Souza’s new docudrama, Police State, only on Rumble.
You’ll find the trailer and link at the end.
#1-The Gulags are Back!
You’re likely familiar with the USSR’s use of forced labor camps in the mid 20th century, called Gulags, which housed criminals and the state’s political opponents.
Until recently, it was unimaginable that one could be jailed for their political beliefs in America.
But the Soviet prisons are emerging from the history books and materializing in places like Washington DC.
A popular example is former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio receiving 22 years in September for “his role” in January 6th.
Even though he wasn’t in DC on that day.
However, the state argued, given his leadership role in the Proud Boys organization, Tarrio was responsible.
And who are the Proud Boys?
Let’s ask our favorite all-knowing, definitely not establishment-managed online encyclopedia.
And here’s Antifa:
Remember 2020?
Did the Proud Boys cause death, loss of businesses, and millions in damage?
Or was it Antifa, that encouraged, committed, and documented these violent acts for months on end?
Unfortunately, along with Tarrio, three other group members were given outrageous sentences.
But even if you think anyone deserves jail for joining the Proud Boys, don’t worry, because you don’t need to join a club to find yourself in the DC gulag.
As I write this, there’s around 1,100 US citizens locked up for involvement with January 6 with over 300 sentenced to prison.
Many of these people are in jail for simply milling about.
Even if these people deserve to be jailed, try them already. What happened to our right to a speedy trial?
Unfortunately, that’s what you get in a police state. You get people like Jake Lang who passed his 1,000th day in jail without trial earlier this month.
And he’s done 20 months in solitary confinement, unable to shave or get a haircut for most of it.
Now, is anyone in jail for the 5/29 attack on the capitol where President Trump was ushered into a bunker as rioters set fire to St. John’s Episcopal Church?
How about the Tennessee 3/30 insurrection where leftists stopped legal proceedings after the Nashville shooting?
And don’t forget about Jamaal Bowman, who pulled a fire alarm to stop a house vote.
Although last week the NY representative pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge for falsely triggering a fire alarm.
Still, no charges of interrupting official proceedings, or conspiring against the government.
Because we have a two-tiered justice system, a major ingredient for a police state.
Sadly, it’s not just J6.
Recently Douglas Mackey was sentenced to 7 months behind bars for posting this meme.
A clear joke.
That’s right. Jail time for a meme.
Maybe we’re not at big rock to little rock status yet, but we’re taking steps in that direction.
#2-When the Government Jails Political Opposition
Perhaps nothing says police state like politicians locking up political opponents.
We know there’s been corruption in the past at various levels, and your favorite president wasn’t a saint.
But launching multiple investigations and making history with a presidential mug shot is a new low.
If you’re having trouble keeping up with the circus, again, this is likely the point, here’s an overview of Trump’s charges:
January 6th Insurrection Case
2 felony counts of obstructing an official proceeding
1 felony count of conspiracy to defraud the United States
1 felony count of conspiracy against rights
Georgia Election Interference Case
1 count of violating the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO).
3 counts of solicitation of oath by public officer
1 count of conspiracy to commit impersonating a public officer
2 counts of conspiracy to commit forgery in the first degree
2 counts of false statements and writings
2 counts of conspiracy to commit false statements and writings
1 count of filing false documents
1 count of conspiracy to commit filing false documents
Classified Documents Case
32 felony counts of willful retention of national defense information in violation of the Espionage Act
6 felony counts of obstruction-related crimes
2 felony counts of false statements
Hush Money Case
34 felony counts of New York Penal Law, falsifying business records in the first degree
Now, was Hillary charged for using BleachBit to wipe government records?
Was Obama charged for droning four American citizens in Yemen? One being a 16-year-old boy?
Is it concerning that every word Trump ever spoke, either in office or otherwise, faces strong criticism while his opponents get away with overt threats?
Trump’s attorneys were smart to play this 4-minute video in court.
#3-When Your Rights Become Permissions
You probably have car insurance.
And if you’re a gun owner, you may have firearm insurance as well.
That’s because much like collision scammers, criminals or their families often sue legal gun owners when they shoot someone in self-defense.
And if you’re only facing a civil suit after a self-defense situation, you’re lucky.
Because prosecutors often criminally charge those that use their Second Amendment right to protect themselves and families.
Take Ronald Stolarczyk of New York for example.
The 64-year-old homeowner became the victim of a home invasion when two intruders broke into his garage in 2019.
Stoloarczyk hid in his room hoping they would leave, but they attacked the homeowner instead.
That’s when Stolarczyk fired, killing both invaders.
Initially investigators told the victim the situation appeared to be a clear case of self-defense, and he would not likely face charges.
Yet the district attorney later charged Stolarczyk because he didn’t have the proper paperwork to defend himself against criminals.
Because the weapon was inherited by his father, to whom the gun was registered.
According to reports, the man hardly made enough money to maintain a phone line, let alone have time and cash to jump through an outrageous process for a right he had at birth.
Thankfully, the state eventually dropped the charges, likely after inundating the man with legal fees.
Even if you don’t carry a gun, you can still end up in jail for protecting yourself and others, like we saw in the Daniel Penny case.
You may recall, Penny was arrested after placing Jordan Neely in a chokehold while acting erratically on a New York subway.
Neely, a homeless man, entered the train and stated he was ready to go to prison for life and ready to die. Bystanders described Neely as “insanely threatening,” another believing “he was going to die.”
Not knowing what Neely planned to do in the confines of the train car, Penny placed Neely in a chokehold to protect himself and others.
Unfortunately, Penny inadvertently killed Neely, and the former Marine was charged with second-degree manslaughter.
Most of us don’t want anyone to die, but where are we when we can’t reasonably protect ourselves?
Support the Cause and Stay Informed
Based on what you’ve seen, are we turning into a police state?
I’ve barely scratched the surface.
Dinesh D’Souza, Dan Bongino, and others do a far better job answering that question in the all new docudrama, Police State.
Hear it straight from former federal agents, government insiders, and the political targets themselves.
You can help by supporting those speaking out and the filmmakers by checking out www.policestatefilm.net or go straight to Rumble and purchase the film.
Police State is a movie that I never wanted to make, because I never wanted America to get to a point where a movie like this needed to be made. -Dinesh D’Souza
