If You Love America, Call Your Congress Member TODAY and Say NO TPP (Vote Is TOMORROW)

George Washington's picture




 

The House of Representatives is voting tomorrow to pass Fast Track authority for the horrible TPP treaty (it already passed the Senate).  If Fast Track is approved, TPP will quickly pass without amendment.

TPP would destroy everything that America stands for. And see this, this, this and this.

But the mainstream media is censoring and ignoring the whole issue.

Senator Warren says that dozens of members of congress are undecided.

Call your Congress critter right now … and tell them no to TPP and no to Fast Track Authority!

Postscript:  Remember, we stopped SOPA … even though they said it couldn’t be done. If everyone picks up the phone right now, we can stop TPP!

I think you are looking for a False Flag event, orchestrated by citizens which implicate members of congress, TBTF Banks, or countries which are supposed to be Allies in this Trade Deal in Nato, in EU, in NAFTA, in CAFTA-DR, in Korean Free Trade Deal, in TPP, TTIP.

- The problem is peace

Things appear to be running smoothly in the US MSM. The problems are the old problems of crime & Terrorism since we don't have suspicions. The problem is peace with petty crime and drug gangs with boogie man terrorist.

All eyes are away from Bankers, Lobbying, Campaign Funds, Transnational Corporations, and Relationships in Europe.

- The problem is not enough dirt on Politicians is getting out

- The problem is Economic Data is Distorted by Treason by MSM

no.  i am instead awaiting the point at which this nation longs for its military to roll into DC.

that day is coming.

there is no other institution in this country in which i have greater faith.  they are not optimal; but far preferable to the current mess -- which is begging to be smashed. 

sadly, i cannot advocate for all-out helter-skelter.  this world has devoted its commercial energies to the centralization of production and distribution; and in times past, when much of a population produced its own food, i'd advocate for other forms of transformative change.  however, in that this is a nation (and world) wherein all but a very few would starve to death in a cataclysmic upheaval, i don't have the heart to back efforts aimed at total chaos.  

people quite literally go mad under the pain of starvation....nothing will impede the human will to eat and heat itself in cold.  there must be some framework by which life-preserving resources can be distributed and the means of said distribution protected.  from that point, a new paradigm can be phased in stage-by-stage.

and i can assure you, with absolute certainty, that the military has plenty of dirt on everything slithering about the beltway.

sure, in the world of impractical abstractions there are far more optimal solutions.  but this world and the enormity of the various powers and the interplay of their associations limit realistic thinking to a few options.  all the others i see expose this country's people to forces that are fundamentally hostile to them; and though loyalty to my people is a weakness, i cannot betray the good folks that populate this land.

if there's anything i despise more than cowardice, it's treason and the betrayal of one's own for personal gain.  i consider almost all in dc to be guilty of both.  

and so then the question arises of whether one is to be loyal to a 'nation' or a 'people'.  well, this represents a philosophical question.  a group must first be composed of an identifiable and cohesive people before it can be a nation; therefore, a 'people' is apriori of a 'nation'.  a 'nation' is simply the mode by which this people arrange and structure their interrelations; and in that 'nations' can (and always have been) subverted by treasonous elements animated by avarice and other mischievous motives, the 'people' must at often times recapture the 'nation' and force it to again represent the 'people' that constitute it.  it's why Jefferson demanded that we at oft times do precisely this.   

and so i can with moral clarity say that i am patriotic to a people -- those derived of the nations of western christendom -- and see its military as the only viable mechanism for-to overturn the immense powers that have seized control of this 'nation'.  i have never, nor will i ever, commit any acts of treason to this 'nation' nor its 'people'; but i will passionately advocate for the latter in their struggle against the former.  

'people' of america, your 'nation' has sold you to the internationalists.  they have no loyalty except to mammon.  and if it were true that they sought the betterment of man in a broadly defined sense, i wouldn't go to all this trouble.  but they are uniquely sinister and predatory.  pennies shaved from every pound; and every day they demand another incremental percent added to the flesh they carve from your bones.

i happen to like the various cultures of this world; but cultures require the incubation of peoples and their protection by nations that represent them...internationalism represents a profound contempt for humanity, in that it seeks to homogenize all into productive assets in the bleak and hellish drone-swarm of corporatism's buzzing hive; stripped of identity and a sense of divinity.  there is nothing wrong with distinct and identifiable peoples; in fact, the world depends on this kind of peaceful separation and neighborly cooperation.

these are the people who want you to merge your identity into the blob. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKkRDMil0bw

they will lose.

i will not atone.  i am your superior, mr. chairman.

The idea of US MIC at some point slamming DC/Wall Street/Etc. has been in the back of mind for quite some time. 

In the meantime, the key in my humble opinion is for people like hedgers to just speak the truth.  Call the bullshit out when it is encountered without fear of what the programmed morons think.  Many of them are just waiting to be snapped out of thier demented state of mind... teetering unseen on massive cognitive dissonance held in check by the groupthink idiocy that surrounds us.  For the rest of em... fuck em.  Leaving them confused or angry is good enough with me.  Let them take that to someone else where it might just cause the opposite effect and further my aggenda anyhow. 

Damn, I really pissed off my wife a few weeks ago when I had no choice in public to call out such bullshit.  Was a public school issue.  My kids got it though.  My daughter, in particular, is going to be a force to be reckoned with.  She has zero tolerance for bullshit (and enough smarts to know when to shut up). 

Anyhow, the internet is no doubt a game changer.  Without going into detail... it would be a real bitch to put this genie back in the bottle.

Its pretty much a fact nowadays that since we have no power over govt and that its gone completely rogue, memes are the only way the population can psychologically cope with the idiocracy we live in, its something about the irony and sarcasm that screams "its ok , you will wake up from this nightmare any moment , just close your eyes and...

What if we sent our Local Government to Washington DC to Confront US Congress Members for like a Week.

Travel funds should not be that bad for a Week.

The message would be to Return Power to the People, the State, pull power back from Wall Street & Lobbyist & Commerce Department Efforts to Outsource Jobs to Illegals and Foreign Slaves. And to say time to Invest in the USA, in our People, and in keeping our Jobs & Economy.

They can bring their own Message.

The thing is after all the FEMA Preps and DHS Preps and Militarization of Police... if common people go to Washington DC... maybe they can just lock us up, Deny us access the way they did to the G20 Protestors, and Occupy Protestors.

States have thousands of government leaders, they could even phase it out to visit for a whole month spread out.

The world Press & MSM would have to print something. And US Congress would have to Answer Questions on all the news Networks.

Million Governments of the USA March with estimates of like 10,000 representatives sent to harangue Congress.

---------------------------------------------------
-- Mr. Smith goes to Washington Times 1000 --

And here is the Thing. Citizens have the Right to "Call, Harass, & Protest" our Mayors and State Reps all day long, every week, every month of every Year. Government Jobs would start to get "Less Popular"

They have no compassion, they have no honor. They are uniquely situated to perpetrate the very worst of corrupt government behavior and they are (Historically) not accountable.

Last night I wrote all 81 Canadian Senators telling them how appalled I am at the corruption with their expense accounts wheras they were paying for fishing trips and family funerals etc with tax payers money, and asked them how they plan on voting on bill C518 which is a bill which will make them post their expense accounts online and also if a politician is criminaly charged they will lose their pension.

 I also told them that they must set a good example for the children as well as the rest of us to be law abiding citizens.

We learn from our peers. How can you expect the citizens to be law abiding if our leaders are criminals themselves. 

It does not take all of us to make or create change, but when no one writes them that is a signal that no one cares.

 So please dont give up write these criminals and often, the more that do will make it more common place that people do. It's up to us, the people to take back our countries from the crooked politicians. it's our only hope, because as we all know they cannot be trusted to look out for the peoples best interests.

Yes, and the Net Neutrality battles still rage as the likes of Comcast, Verizon, et al, have been beaten back ever time by activists.

The problem is, these corporations never stop.  If they don't get it this time, the next campaign starts tomorrow.  What will have to eventually happen if we are to survive is a total revamp of what a corporation is and is not.  Corporations have been given huge benefits in this society, and they have huge 9 obligations to society.  Unfortunately, they have been able to pay off enough lawmakers to have effectively shredded the social contract that once was in place.

No one is voting on this... all that is left in congress is theater. This is professional wrestling at its best...

When I was a kid in 7th grade taking world history... 50 years ago now... I simply could not understand why the Roman Senate ceded their authority to the Emperor. What we have witnessed is human nature in action... a collection of sociopaths and psychopaths turned influence pedlers while the Emperor keeps the order.

Not even good theater... these monsters can't even fake it well. Nor do they believe they need to. As has always been the case with creatures of this ilk they are convinced of their own immortality.

It will not last. It never does. They are not gods... rather they are ridiculous beings of limited reasoning, despite all of the academic titles they award themselves, incapable of wisdom, rediscovering all of the old vices that have forever doomed men to their folly.

Personally I do not believe that it will make ANY DIFFERENCE WHATSOEVER if I write to my Congress Critter or not.

 

HOWEVER WHILE THAT MAY, OR MAY NOT, BE TRUE...

 

I wrote a letter to Duncan Hunter, United States Representative of California's 50th Congressional District on the very SLIM ODDS that I might be wrong.

 

I pray to the living God Almighty that I am wrong so that there is still some hope at salvaging smething from this Financial Trainwreck.

 

If you do not play the slim odds then you have no hope whatsoever.

 

If you can write here then you can write to your CongressCritter.

 

It is our only hope. Please I implore that you do.

 

Addendum...

 

Then I just get this in my inbox from Greg Hunter, USA Watchdog

 

You know it’s a bad deal for everyday Americans when this sort of trade deal is opposed by Democrats such as Senator Elizabeth Warren and Republican Congressmen Duncan Hunter. Hunter even wrote Ryan a letter asking him not to vote on the deal until all Americans know what’s in the agreements.

 

I was right. For me it will not make any difference whatsoever.

 

For everybody else...It may make all of the difference in the world.

The pen has never accomplished anything in human history. The only way to enforce what was written is by the barrel of a gun.

A pen may have declared independence, but a gun secured it.

The only real way to change what is voted on is to remove the ability for those who vote.

That is why we retain the right to change our government, by force if it comes to it.

Your man said he would play for you, but the other team paid him to lose. Unless you have another player to replace him, you'll never win. The problem is that you gave him a contract to play and you can't break it.

I just emailed, but I have a bad feeling about this, that TPA and TPP will pass.  I don't want to be so pessimistic, but what do a few lower percentage points in approval mean to a congress that is already at 8%.  TPTB are calling the shots and this is important to their plans.  I will redouble my prepping efforts in the face of this assault.

Now I attempted to CALL FIRST. His voicemail box was full.

 

Tis a little late for that paper letter, GW.

 

What other option do I have?

 

If I knew where he resides in Lakeside then a personal visit would be preferable.

 

But Duncan Hunter is a pusillanomous pissmeyer, GW.

 

He gave me a Ten Foot berth during the Lakeside Rodeo parade as I said that I wanted to shake the hand of the man who raised my taxes.

 

The next day we were approaching the Grocery Store entrance...by chance He was with his pastor. He ran away. Can you imagine that, GW?

 

He is a fucking MANGINA and a shell of the warrior his old man was.

 

Yeah. He is in town. I really want to know his address. I guess that I can attend the Presbyterian Church where he attends. Those are some stuck up and fucked up people, GW.

You might remind these congress persons and senate persons that their oath of office contains the words  PROTECT AND DEFEND THE U.S. CONSTITUTION AGAINST ASSULT OF SAME BY ALL ENEMIES INTERAL AND EXTERNAL. At best it contitutes malfeasence of office; at worst it it flat out TREASON if any or all vote for this POS.

The mass of the people means the loss of  SOVERIGNITY for all and the absolutes of corporate take over of what is left of our Constitution. And yes it is contrary to Marbury v Madison and the supremency of our Constitution as the supreme law of the land. This dozyis truly a gigantic piee of SHIT.        Milestones

Calling a rep isn't the only action you can take.

We shouldn't have to call our representatives to get them to act in our interest. If we do, they're not our representatives and won't represent us regardless.

 

As an alternative you could spend that time researching better reps, reading philosophy, learning a new skill, or a new language, or even practicing a new musical instrument. All these would likely be more beneficial.

Whilst I completely agree with the sentiments, let's not over-dramatise. As of now, only TWO countries have agreed to sign on to TPP: Japan and The Philippines. Fortunately, even if Americans are brain dead, the nations on the other side are not fucking stupid and will not surrender their sovereignty to US Corporations in exchange for a few trinckets. They also recognise that China, deliberately and petulantly excluded from TPP, and intra-Asian trade is the future not The US bully-boy game.

And countries like New Zealand have, very sensibly and responsibly, saved their taxpayers Billions in Healthcare costs by taking a hard line with Big Pharma and aren't about to bend over and take it now. US Pharma Companies earn 80 (Eighty) per cent of their real Net profits in the US market alone (Although you will notice that only ever provide a geographical breakdown of Sales, never Profits) and are recognising that is unsustainable so now want to screw the rest of the world as well.

IMHO, that's a vey narrow US-centric perspective. When China trades with other nations, it genuinely invests in infrastructure and other sustainable development, which is a genuine win/win. When the US gets involved with other countries, it wants to set all the rules and tends to supply only weapons and funds to sustain corrupt dictatorships with the end goal of creating puppet regimens which are US Vassals. China just wants to trade in a mutually-benficial way. These nations will never surrender their sovereignty to US Corporations as surrogates of USG because they are smart enough to see the truth and have a vision of the future without The US.

Was going to agree and leave it at that except for the major cognitive error of minimizing China's Intensions and involvement in all Asian countries.

"China just wants to trade in a mutually-benficial way."

Pretty sure China wants ADIZs, Fishing areas, mineral and mining rights, islands, strategic ports.

Would include Taiwan, Philippines, South Korea, Japan, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, and Myanmar.

I might be wrong though.

The war is mainly Economic, Financial, and Trade as you rightly point out.

The House of Representatives is voting tomorrow to pass Fast Track authority for the horrible TPP treaty (it already passed the Senate).

If any of you actually called your congressman, then you would know that the House is voting on TPA and not TPP.

TPA is available online, and if passed would allegedly require TPP to be available for public review for 60 days before being passed.
