There are strong opinions on both sides about the election process and the results.\\ \\ A dramatic change to everyone’s businesses and lifestyles occurred last year, too. Citizens are standing up to demand politicians respect the Bill or Rights espoused in our US Constitution after tyrannical political leaders infringed upon our most basic privileges as citizens under the guise of “an emergency.”\\ \\ //Left to their own ends, political leaders will now create a “new emergency” for every situation to infringe upon the rights of others while enjoying the very privileges they take from others.// Our US Constitution is clear in this respect: the people representing us in government who made these tyrannical decisions all are supposed to work for us.\\ \\ The pandemic and the tyrannical actions of unelected bureaucrats is causing a public backlash as people realize they need to get involved with grass-roots organizations that promote the power of the people.
