What else do you call someone who is involved in a coup against the duly elected government?

Has anyone seen the TV show Designated Survivor? My wife wanted to check it so we watched the first episode the other night. Spoiler alert: Ten minutes into the opening episode the President is delivering the State of the Union address and the Capitol Explodes and the whole Govt. is wiped out in one shot. I looked over at my wife and said ” Oh what a Glorious Day that would be.” She looked at me like I was crazy but I said “look the whole swamp was just eliminated in one fell swoop.” While this is a work of fiction, oh how I wish it was true.
Everyday we are hit with many harsh truths and yet we do nothing about them. Just yesterday Mueller came out to stir the pot and keep the coup attempt of the Deep State going. He should be hanged from the Lamppost in D.C. along with many others, Strzok, Page, Brennan, Clapper, Comey, Clinton, Holder, Obama, the list goes on and on.
Our National Debt stands at 22.3 trillion and nobody cares. The Rule of Law has been thrown out the window and nobody cares. A coup attempt has been attempted to overthrow our election and nobody has been arrested and tried for crimes. Illegal’s are pouring through our border and the Wall isn’t being built. The communist in our govt. are slowly chipping away at our Bill of Right’s and nobody seems to care.
Why?
Is it because we all have lives? We all live comfortably? We all have much to lose? We are all just trying to survive day by day and hope to be left alone?
There is so much evil in this world and it’s being flaunted in front of our faces on a daily basis. And yet we do nothing. Hell most of us in this movement, this Patriot/Freedom movement can’t agree on much of anything. We are all strong opinionated, my way or the highway kind of people. But we wait. Will there be anything worth fighting for if we continue to wait?
What exactly are we waiting for? I don’t know? Seems like everyone is waiting on something different to happen, something that will be the final straw, and then everyone will join the party?
It’s frustrating to sit by and watch your Country go to shit in front of your eyes. Yet that is what I’m doing. I have a Wife, a whole bunch of kids, and a good life. Would it be different if I didn’t have so many responsibilities to so many people who depend on me? Yes it would! There in lies the problem. Our forefather’s risked it all. We haven’t reached the point where we are willing to do that yet.
The time is coming when some hard decision’s are going to need to be made. I fear many of those people that depend on us may not like those decisions. What then?
We have 523 days until the next Presidential Election. What happens if nothing happens? What if Crimes go UnPunished? And the Elites and the Oligarchs and the Political class continue to prove that they are just too big to Jail?
What Then?

There are many examples of how the actions of Representatives have made the House irrelevant. I believe that the implementation of the healthcare tax by Senate instead of the House in violation of the Constitution was the beginning of their end.

For those who still believe that we can vote our way out of this, look at the “elected” members of Congress. An uninformed electorate will elect the politicians who promise the most and deliver only to themselves.

Rejection of the Electoral College is the Surest Path to the Destruction of this Country.

It seems fewer and fewer Americans understand and appreciate our very unique system of government. For example, how many times have you heard someone refer to our country as a “democracy” ? Our Founders, as I’m sure we Tea Partiers know, intentionally rejected such a system of government in favor of a constitutional republic. And how many times recently have we heard Democrats and Progressives push to abolish the Electoral System, citing that such a system is not democratic? We should recognize this movement for what it truly is – the surest way to wrangle our country from its conservative moorings and to head quickly on the path to overbearing big government and socialism (massive re-distribution of wealth). It is the surest way to put our government in the hands of those who devalue freedom (because only a person who doesn’t value freedom or who doesn’t care to live free wants government to take care of him) and hence to pursue policies to limit it to everyone.

America’s Founding Fathers designed very specific guidelines for our system of government and protected them by placing them in the U.S. Constitution.

I am submitting some clauses from Article 1 of the Constitution for your consideration. Each has a reason for its inclusion in this post. Some are very pertinent to current affairs in the bowels of the D.C. swamp.

On Memorial Day, when we honor the fallen of the many wars throughout our short history, it seems inconceivable that we should have to defend the freedoms for which they have given their lives.

It would be one thing to consider that the enemies of freedom are merely seeking a better way, a more just, more humane way of dispensing government and surely, there are many who are seduced by this proclamation, but it is untrue and deviously contrived to convince the unwitting. But, there are many more who are willingly engaged in this deception, who understand and endorse the collectivist agenda.

This is a fight begun in the shadows of the great European powers. It is a fight against the construct of master and servant, lord and peasant. The meaning of the United States is the idea of a nation organized, built, defended and administered by the people themselves offering each an opportunity to take whatever part they might choose.

The ideal, to those colonists seeking to build a nation, was to be freely engaged in commerce; to plant crops; to husband livestock; to build houses; to forge tools and equipment; to engage in trade and shipping. Administration of the local government: sitting in committee; organizing projects and selling bonds was a necessary duty to further enable the other endeavors. It was an obligation and resented as time taken away from those labors that supported the family, built the business and laid in supplies against winter and drought.

Defense of the home, the state and the nation was a product of those same obligations. For decades the citizens carried all of these burdens through civilian dedication to the system of self-government.

Somewhere along the line, there is no clear demarcation, we began to hire professionals to do the work of the citizen. We stopped trying to figure out how to operate larger bureaucracies, more complicated economies and national defense by a volunteer corps. There was a lot of interest in a professional government and whether that was by design or circumstance means little, it has led us to this: a government intentionally subverted by its employees. In effect, people hired by the people to subvert the system that benefits the people.

But, they have taken that one step further, to not only subvert the system, but to replace it with a soviet system. This, to the apparatchiks, is better for them to not have to care about the people, or what they vote for. Any vote can be written off as the ignorant and foolish making bad decisions, decisions the apparatchiks can nullify through procedure and interdepartmental rules. This works at the local DMV as well as it does at FBI Headquarters.

So, on this Memorial Day, when we honor those who have fallen defending the nation, the republic, the Constitution or just their homes, it must be reflected against the harsh reality that while some fought and died to preserve freedom, others in the same government, at the same time, cashed paychecks for working against it.

We have allowed propaganda to set policy and lies to become culture.
