Oh, the insanity!

Let’s not go down the Sovereign Citizen rabbit hole.

It's interesting that one of TFFG's first executive orders was to prevent violence against police officers. And then on Jan 6, over 145 officers are wounded or killed at his request. He sat in his office watching the whole thing for over 3 hours and did absolutely nothing to assist the officers he swore to protect 4 years earlier.

"Preventing Violence Against Federal, State, Tribal, and Local Law Enforcement Officers"

Signed: Feb. 9, 2017

The order calls on the Justice Department to "enhance the protection and safety" of law enforcement by increasing penalties for crimes committed against officers.

The attorney general is also instructed to review and determine whether existing federal laws adequately protect law enforcement and later to propose legislation to better protect officers. The order directs the Justice Department to recommend changes in federal grant funding to law enforcement programs if they do not protect officers.

I just did some research on the Sovereign Citizen movement. Its up here in Canada too. What an excuse for breaking every law possible.
