“It is error alone which needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
They Are Not Happy. Not at all. ‘They’ are some of “Us, the American People” who thought we had a read on President-to-be Trump, and Musk/Ramaswamy deportation strike force. Those of us so disposed are becoming disillusioned. Disillusioned over one Elon Musk, MAGA loyalist through-and-through, who no advocates bringing in highly skilled engineers from foreign lands. Trust besmirched.
“The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it to be always kept alive.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
“We, the American People” who placed stock in Trump/Musk/Ramaswamy impetus to relieve illegal immigrant/migrant/refugee (IIMR) debacle, media report, are out of sorts because it looks as though Elon is speaking with forked tongue. We ought not be if we think about it. Trump/Musk/Ramaswamy trident have not called for a moratorium on immigration. They advocated for purging IIMR hordes.
“To preserve our independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our election between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude….I place economy among the first and most important of republican virtues, and public debt as the greatest of the dangers to be feared.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
It Would Make Perfect Sense to Elon Musk to hire engineering talent where he can find it at acceptable cost. Besides, if American-produced engineers fill Musk bill, Musk is not likely to take on administrative burden associated with getting foreign folks on board. American engineers need no passport rigmarole, no pesky paperwork other than normal bureaucratic hoops to get through.
“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms, disarm only those who are neither inclined, nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
“Our, the American People’s” impulse perceptions about Elon Musk may well be misguided in sizing up Elon Musk as other than a focused, goal-oriented industrial tycoon. Any political trappings in Musk enterprises are likely to be rooted in normal course of doing business with government-imposed red tape. Hiring foreign engineering talent round out project teams would be par for preeminence course.
“Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add ‘within the law,’ because law is often but the tyrant’s will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
People Intending To Live In Liberty do not allow legislators – or other public officials within These United States of America, to prohibit or restrict private ownership of firearms and ammunition from any citizen of good repute and responsible standing. They hold fast their ability to ward off would-be tyranny.
“Tyranny is defined as that which is legal for the government but illegal for the citizenry.”
~ Thomas Jefferson

“If there be any among us who wish to dissolve the Union or to change its republican form, let them stand undisturbed, as monuments of the safety with which error of opinion may be tolerated where reason is left free to combat it.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
Can’t Find Satisfaction, Can’t Some who left presidential candidate Kamala Harris campaign to join presidential candidate Donald J. Trump’s bid for 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Now, they are reported to be ‘hoping’ President-to-be Donald J. Trump will deal with their pet hopes and aspirations more so than would have Kanala Harris. Placing hope in legislators-politicians is Fairy Godmother fantasy.
“Experience [has] shown that, even under the best forms [of government], those entrusted with power have, in time and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
It May Be Legislators-Politicians, to some degree, do work for constituent satisfaction. Practically speaking “We, the American People” can rest assured legislators-politicians work for their election/re-election first. Second, legislators-politicians strive to have their personal attitudes, values, and beliefs (PAVB) be lawfully compulsory. Then, compatibility emerging, constituent PAVB are attended.
“The ground of liberty is to be gained by inches, and we must be contented to secure what we can get from time to time and eternally press forward for what is yet to get. It takes time to persuade men to do even what is for their own good.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
It Is Nigh Impossible for “Us, the American People” to get fulfilment from politicians-legislators who, if they expect to have an opportunity to influence how America’s government influences American life and world events, have to come to grips politicians-legislators will adjust their marketing to attract most voters. We are left getting fruits of legislative initiatives, be such fruits sweet or stringent.
“If people let the government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as are the souls who live under tyranny.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
“Our, the American People’s” expectations of prosperity delivered by legislative decree are fated to materialize if, and only if, our expectations parallel expectations expressed by most voters. We would have better odds not allowing legislators-politicians power to decide who wins or loses based on how legislation, taxation, and regulation bear on people’s odds of getting public money. Odds favor tables.
“Dependence leads to subservience.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
People Dedicated To Living In Liberty do not allow legislators – or other public officials within These United States of America, to overrule Commonwealth/State (10th Amendment) Sovereignty. They uphold their heritage of self-government and reject illegitimate federal intrusion.

“The care of every man’s soul belongs to himself. But what if he neglect the care of it? Laws provide against injury from others; but not from ourselves. God himself will not save men against their wills.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
Goes Around, Comes Around, does political manipulation. “We, the American People are idealistic fools if we think – think for a microsecond, America’s legislators, including America’s presidents, are not spiteful and lust for power. Power to shape Americans’ lives, to control events, power to exert lawful force, power to make their personal attitudes, values, and beliefs (PAVB) lawfully compulsory.
“When all government, in little as in great things, shall be drawn to Washington as the Center of all power, it will render powerless the checks provided of one government on another and will become as venal and oppressive as the government from which we separated.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
Media Report America’s Justice System handed “Our, the American People’s” President-to-be Donald J. Trump a victory regarding presidential PAVB power to hiring and firing government employees. Government employees are protected against firing for political affiliation purposes. Research on matter being accurate. Media-referenced court action cited President Joe Biden firing Trump allies.
“A strong body makes a strong mind. As to the species of exercise I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Let your gun, therefore, be the constant companion of your walks.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
Those Of “Us, the American People” who’ve been federal political employees are well aware how jobs are handed about and taken away by a process calling for some employees to submit pro forma resignations. Those asked who refused were sent surreptitiously on their way looking for other means of making a living. Wrongful dismissal was no defense, since employment was contingent on need.
“I am not a friend to a very energetic government. It is always oppressive.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
President Donald J. Trump’s Department Of Government Efficiency (DOGE) plans to let go federal employees seen as in excess or unnecessary to DOGE goals for streamlining federal government work force. Employees let go are not likely to find legal recourse remedies, since there is nothing to prevent America’s presidents from eliminating positions, even entire agencies. Not everyone might agree.
“Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to the accidental opinion of a day. But a series of oppressions, begun at a distinguished period, and pursued unalterably through every change of ministers, too plainly proves a deliberate systematic plan of reducing us to slavery.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
People Opting To Live In Liberty do not allow legislators – or other public officials within These United States of America, to overrule Commonwealth/State (10th Amendment) Sovereignty. They uphold their heritage of self-government and reject illegitimate federal intrusion.

“The care of every man’s soul belongs to himself. But what if he neglect the care of it? Well what if he neglect the care of his health or his estate, which would more nearly relate to the state. Will the magistrate make a law that he not be poor or sick? Laws provide against injury from others; but not from ourselves. God himself will not save men against their wills.” ~ Thomas Jefferson

“I hold it, that a little rebellion, now and then, is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
“We, the American People” had better prepare for a full-blown ‘Constitutional Earthquake” within minutes, possibly seconds, after President-to-be Donald J. Trump is sworn in as America’s next ‘Dictator-in-Chief.’ For, it is a Constitutional earthquake awaiting America and Planet Earth’s international community, if a former Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS aide is on point.
“The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it always to be kept alive. It will often be exercised when wrong, but better so than not to be exercised at all. I like a little rebellion now and then.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
SCOTUS Aide In Question Once helped a first-order controversial SCOTUS Justice make ready for deliberation when SCOTUS heard burning issues du jour. One shockwave from potentially coming Trump-triggered earthquake is NATO taking umbrage, should Donald J., as President, try withdrawing from key treaties NATO finds to NATO’s liking. Only a rogue U.S. president would presume so to do.
“When all government…in little as in great things…shall be drawn to Washington as the center of all power; it will render powerless the checks provided of one government on another, and will become as venal and oppressive as the government from which we separated.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
It Might Occur To Some of “Us, the American People” President-to-be Donald J. Trump is of a mind U.S. treaty membership ought be, first, beneficial to America’s interest, second, financially worthwhile to other members to prompt other members to keep their treaty accounts paid up – and their terms of membership upheld. Although, President-to-be Trump may not see treaty membership as do others.
“Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations; entangling alliances with none.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
“Our, the American People’s” sovereign citizenry powers may not be able to thwart geological earthquakes. We can, with certainty, stop America’s legislators, including America’s presidents, from creating American Constitutional earthquakes and keep our legislators and presidents from creating international political earthquakes. Provided we are prepared to restrain errant president and legislator.
“Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
People Determined To Live In Liberty do not allow legislators – or other public officials within These United States of America, to interfere with how responsible citizens use their private property. They fiercely protect their most vital right – individual property ownership. Protecting property is protecting life.
