…One of the biggest impacts Trump has had on the country both as president and as a private citizen has been awakening millions of Americans to the very real danger of a media and political elite class that has been subverting Constitutional and legal processes in the states to increase their own power and control. This is especially true of America’s election systems. For the past six months, more Americans than ever have been made aware of the existence of this powerful network of incredibly rich and privileged people that we could call an “oligarchy,” as James O’Keefe does in his recent music video. …In this column, I’m going to cover three specific attempts by this oligarchy to control the national dialogue both preceding, during, and then following the 2020 election.

20 Republican Governors Call on Biden to ‘Take Action’ on Border Crisis: Epoch Times
“Contrary to statements from your Administration, the border is neither closed nor secure,” the governors said in a letter (pdf), adding that the crisis “is now spilling over the border states into all of our states.” …The 20 governors said that state and federal authorities are “overwhelmed” by what they described as a “self-created crisis that exploits families, undermines public safety, and threatens our national security.” It concluded by saying: “We urge you to take action to end the humanitarian crisis and secure our southern border immediately.” …Separately, they contended that the Biden administration has provided “almost zero transparency” into their operations, adding that “we have neither the resources nor the obligation to solve the federal government’s problem and foot the bill for the consequences of this Administration’s misguided actions.”
The Facebook Oligarchs’ Betrayal of America: Epoch Times Commentary by Newt Gingrich
Every American should take note of this decision. If the Facebook oligarchs can silence someone who served as President of the United States and received nearly 75 million votes, then they can silence anyone. …But to understand the depth of the hypocrisy and anti-Americanism of the Facebook elites, it is more revealing to look at who they are not removing from the platform. Let’s start with the Chinese Communist totalitarian dictatorship. Xinhua News Agency—a state-run propaganda outlet—has 90.2 million followers on Facebook. The People’s Daily and the Global Times, which are Chinese Communist Party propaganda outlets, have 86.5 million and 62.9 million followers, respectively. The state-run television network, China Central Television, and its international arm, China Global Television Network, have 49.8 and 116.8 million followers. All of these organizations have been designated by the U.S. State Department as foreign missions.
How ‘Woke’ May Be Leading Us to Civil War: Epoch Times Commentary
An iron-fisted, ideologically extreme minority has our country under its thumb—play along or face excommunication. This is stronger than anything in our history and almost identical to what we see and have seen in totalitarian countries. …Most of what used to be called the common men (or women) in the street roll their eyes at “woke”—including even some silent, but browbeaten, Democrats—and do their best to move on, although many realize that “woke” and its sister “social justice” are in essence euphemisms for an ideology far more totalitarian than any ever in control of this country, communism.
The Case for Speaking Out: Epoch Times Commentary
As radical activism and ideological extremity run rampant, it can be hard to believe that a silent majority of Americans actually dissent. Upwards of 80 percent (pdf) think political correctness has gone awry, and 64 percent would even go as far as to call cancel culture a threat to their freedom. …But perhaps the greatest case for speaking out is to fortify the integrity of the next generation. The youngest among us have been raised in a highly politicized world. From cartoons to classrooms, the dominant orthodoxy is constantly reinforced, and the expectation of conformity is made abundantly clear. Young people only know a graceless society characterized by a zero-tolerance cancel culture.

Newt Gingrich: The Crisis of American Civilization: Epoch Times
We are now in a crisis of American civilization fully as dangerous and real as the crisis of the U.S. Civil War or World War II. During both those crises, if America had lost, it would have ceased to be America—and the cause of freedom around the world would have been dramatically weakened. …In San Francisco, the declaration by the communist district attorney that theft under $900 will not be prosecuted has led to so much shoplifting that Walgreens is closing all 10 of its drugstores in the city. …Traditional media hostility and dishonesty are overshadowed by the internet giants, who are increasingly acting like Russian oligarchs. They are trying to erase a leader who was supported by more than 75 million Americans with a ruthlessness worthy of Soviet tyranny and the Chinese Communist Party.
Supreme Court Justice Thomas Suggests Facebook, Twitter Could Be Regulated Like Utilities: Epoch Times
Thomas agreed that Trump’s Twitter account did “resemble a constitutionally protected public forum” in certain aspects, he noted that “it seems rather odd to say that something is a government forum when a private company has unrestricted authority to do away with it,” possibly referring to Twitter’s ban against Trump following the Jan. 6 incident. “Any control Mr. Trump exercised over the account greatly paled in comparison to Twitter’s authority, dictated in its terms of service, to remove the account ‘at any time for any or no reason,’” he added. “Twitter exercised its authority to do exactly that.”
