Biden's Regrets, and Ours

• https://www.lewrockwell.com, By Karen Kwiatkowski

The problem is the Executive Branch itself.  It is an imperial ruler with its imperial class presiding over  its ever-expanding empire. The modern American president has become the intermediary between God and the people, an American Pharaoh.   Unlike the real American Pharoah, limiting his activities to food, drink and sex, our American Pharaoh is working to set the world on fire, destroy his imaginary enemies, and subvert economies and human life all over the planet – often for no more rational reason than Because. He. Can.

Instead of worshipping the presidency, we must consider the extreme danger the bloated Executive Branch poses, not just to Americans, but to every person on the planet.  We must withhold our support as a rule, and only lend our support when the actions of the president and his unlimited executive branch conduct themselves in accordance with the hard-earned, hard-won fundamentals of the Constitution.

Rockwell writes, "If there is ever a time to get behind a president, it is when he withdraws from the world, stops wars, and brings the troops home. If there is ever a time to trip him up, question his leadership, and denounce his usurpations, it is when he does the opposite."

Our duty has always been to trip up, question and denounce the President – and how do we know this?  Because it is the opposite of what the state demands, from our very earliest education until we, in our final days, lose our ability to think and speak.  The state reminds us every day to submit, never question, and always laud the Executive Branch, in all its acts, decisions, and aspirations.

Over 500 years ago, De La Boettie in Politics of Obedience notes of kings, conquerers or elected presidents, "For although the means of coming into power differ, still the method of ruling is practically the same; those who are elected act as if they were breaking in bullocks; those who are conquerors make the people their prey; those who are heirs plan to treat them as if they were their natural slaves."
