It&#8217;s up to red states to defend our constitutional system and our pre-political, God-given, inalienable rights against the emerging socialist tyranny.<\/p>\n<p>Take the absurd outrage over Georgia&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/op-ed-its-up-to-red-states-to-push-back-against-tyranny-heres-what-they-need-to-do-part-1\/\" title=\"Red States Must Resist Tyranny - Here's How (Part 1)\">modest election integrity law passed<\/a> in 2021 as an example of leftist ascendancy and dominance over our nation and institutions. The left controls the media, academia, Hollywood, professional sports, Big Tech, federal bureaucracy, Wall Street, banks, and corporate America, all of which now worship at the church of \u201cwokeness.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite its dysfunction and corruption, the left governs our institutions, culture, and nation. COVID fascism paralyzed the nation, destroyed jobs and the economy, and attacked basic rights and civil liberties. They robbed us of the right to send our children to school, maintain our businesses and jobs, or attend church, all for a lie. None of the COVID measures had any impact on the trajectory of the virus. COVID gave the left the excuse it needed to clamp down on a passive people that has forgotten its legacy of liberty and independence.<\/p>\n<p>We must not forget the destruction of our cities by the Black Lives Matter movement and antifa in the summer of 2020, about which the federal government did nothing. Our federal agencies, including the FBI, IRS, and others, have been weaponized. Our borders are open, criminals are set free, and the federal government will neither protect us nor deliver us. Rather, it is the federal government that most threatens us.<\/p>\n<h3>Defend the Rule of Law and Our Constitutional System<\/h3>\n<p>Fortunately, 28 states have Republican control over both houses of the legislature, some overwhelmingly. Twenty-two of those states enjoy the trifecta that includes the governor\u2019s office. Given the failure of the Republican Party nationally and the domination of our institutions by the left, it falls to these solidly red states to defend the rule of law, our constitutional system, and our pre-political, God-given, inalienable rights.<\/p>\n<div id=\"firefly-poll-container\" class=\"one-half\">\n<div class=\"firefly-poll-question\">Do you live in a red state?<\/div>\n<div id=\"pollFormBox\" style=\"display: none\">\n<ul>\n<li><label><input type=\"radio\" name=\"answer\" value=\"yes\">Yes<\/label><\/li>\n<li><label><input type=\"radio\" name=\"answer\" value=\"no\">No<\/label><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"firefly-poll-disclaimer\">\n\t\t\tCompleting this poll entitles you to The Western Journal news updates free of charge.

Do you want to preserve our nation, our values, and our way of life? Here is a list of measures that red states should undertake:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h3>Call State Legislatures into Session<\/h3>\n<p>State legislatures shall call themselves into session at will, particularly when confronted with a tyrannical governor. It is paramount that this be amended in the context of unrelenting COVID fascism and other manifestations of tyranny, including in red states by Republican governors, and encroachments by the federal government.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Limit Executive Orders for Emergency Powers<\/h3>\n<p>The state shall limit executive orders for emergency powers by governors to a single event and for no more than 10 days. Extensions or further orders shall <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/pa-election-official-warns-of-major-delays-in-vote-counting-for-midterm-elections\/\" title=\"PA Election Official Warns of Major Delays in Vote Counting for Midterm Elections\">require legislative approval<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Declare and Uphold Citizens&#8217; Rights<\/h3>\n<p>The state shall declare and uphold the right of its citizens to freely assemble, worship (both in churches and homes), engage in free speech, walk and breathe without encumbrance such as the wearing of masks, and engage in commerce.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Limit School Closures<\/h3>\n<p>The state shall limit school closures to 10 days. Further extensions shall require legislative approval.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>End All Mask and Vaccine Mandates<\/h3>\n<p>The state shall end all mask and vaccine mandates. It shall declare vaccination passports illegal, including when imposed by the federal government, corporations, local governments and boards, or other entities. When the state ends mask mandates, it shall render it illegal for individual counties, cities and towns to continue such mandates or pass their own.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Abolish Universal Powers of Health Departments<\/h3>\n<p>The state shall abolish all universal powers of health departments at the state and county level. It shall be illegal for state and county health departments or directors to issue sweeping mandates, force schools or businesses to close, require the wearing of masks or other physical encumbrances, impose quarantines, or ban gatherings. Health directors are not mini-dictators. They are paid employees of the county and state, serve at the pleasure of the public and its elected representatives, and are readily terminated at the discretion of the state and county and their elected officers.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Scrutinize Federal Executive Orders, Regulations, and Laws<\/h3>\n<p>The state shall scrutinize all federal executive orders, regulations and laws. Any of them deemed unlawful and unconstitutional shall be declared null and void.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Declare Itself a Sanctuary for the Constitution<\/h3>\n<p>The state shall declare itself a sanctuary for the Constitution, particularly the First and Second Amendments. The state shall embrace freedom of assembly, worship, speech and the press, freedom to petition the government and freedom from unwarranted search and seizure. The state shall defend the right to bear arms.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Refuse All Asylum or Refugee Cases<\/h3>\n<p>The state shall refuse all so-called \u201casylum\u201d or \u201crefugee\u201d cases and all such resettlement efforts, as virtually none of the \u201crefugees\u201d are refugees by any definition but rather economic migrants who entered the nation illegally. Asylum is intended for true victims of persecution, not those laboring under poverty or crime, which affects much of the world. They are not refugees and should not be accorded refugee status or resettled here.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Refuse the Resettlement of Illegal Aliens<\/h3>\n<p>The state shall refuse the resettlement of illegal aliens in general and shall not support them in any way \u2014 including with health care, other than emergency interventions \u2014 whether they declare themselves refugees or not. They will have no access to education, jobs or any public programs. They will be prosecuted for trespassing, human and drug trafficking, illegal entry, rape, murder and any other crimes they may commit. They will be incentivized to return to their home countries or, when possible and necessary, deported. The state may send them to Democratic states that covet them.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Let&#8217;s take back our states and our country from the left. It&#8217;s time to stand up for our values and our way of life.<\/p>\n<h2>Red States Must Take Action to Protect Their Borders and Citizens<\/h2>\n<blockquote>\n<p>It&#8217;s time for action. The federal government has failed to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mayorkas-sworn-in-as-secretary-of-homeland-security-despite-heavy-gop-opposition\/\" title=\"Mayorkas Sworn In As Secretary Of Homeland Security Despite Heavy GOP Opposition\">enforce immigration law<\/a>, leaving our borders vulnerable to illegal entry and putting American citizens at risk. Red states must take matters into their own hands and prevent these individuals from entering or, if necessary, deport them back to Mexico.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Enforcing the Law and Protecting Our Sovereignty<\/h3>\n<blockquote>\n<p>The lawlessness of the federal government cannot be allowed to continue. Red states must defend our sovereignty, secure our borders, and protect our citizens. It&#8217;s time to take a stand and enforce the law ourselves.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Part 2 Coming Soon<\/h3>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Stay tuned for Part 2 of this important discussion.
