  • San Mateo County
    san mateo county the newsletter for the Libertarian Party of San Mateo County independence day 2013 image: Robert Santorelli jefferson weeping by Judge Andrew Napolitano Do you have more personal liberty today than on the Fourth of July 2012? When Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence, he used language that has become iconic. He wrote that we are endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights, and among them are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Not only did he write those words, but the first Congress adopted them unanimously, and they are still the law of the land today. By acknowledging that our rights are inalienable, Jefferson’s words and the first federal statute recognize that our rights come from our humanity – from within us – and not from the government. The government the Framers gave us was not one that had the power and ability to decide how much freedom each of us should have, but rather one in which we individually and then collectively decided how much power the government should have. That, of course, is also recognized in the Declaration, wherein Jefferson wrote that the government derives its powers from the consent of the governed. To what governmental powers may the governed morally consent contents in a free society? We can consent to the powers necessary to protect us from force and fraud, and to the means of revenue to pay for a government to exercise those powers. But no one can jefferson weeping ........... 111 consent to the diminution of anyone else’s natural rights, because, contact us ………....................

  • The Retaking of America
    John Sutherland – The Retaking of America The Retaking of America And what you can do to help Author: John Sutherland, Date: March 12, 2011, Rev Dec 11, 2019 Web: https://Highlander.com We are all frustrated and sometimes overwhelmed with the incredible pressures being exerted on us largely by too many government programs. Not to worry. There are some solid things that we can do to reverse the insanity in government. Background That our country and its federal government have been taken over by anti-American and unlawful forces should no longer be a surprise to anyone who has been alert and who has been paying attention to current events. Dr. Paul Craig Roberts has a brilliant interview in which he points out many of the destructive activities that have occurred and are still occurring to the detriment of our country by members of our own government.1 As Dr. Roberts so clearly points out, our government no longer believes it is answerable to our laws or to our people, and this attitude, being observed as it is by the people, causes great stress among all of us. In our country, the people have always supported the government, but we must now observe that our government is treating us as its enemy through the use of denial of justice for the people, the militarizing of the community police, the double standard of the executive branch whereby government figures no longer feel required to obey our laws, the use of totalitarian techniques to deny the God given rights that were once supported by government, the rapid destruction of our economy and our money system, etc.

  • A Critical Discourse Analysis of U.S. Media Coverage of Government Leaking During the Trump Administration
    Syracuse University SURFACE Theses - ALL May 2018 A critical discourse analysis of U.S. media coverage of government leaking during the Trump administration Andrew Wirzburger Syracuse University Follow this and additional works at: https://surface.syr.edu/thesis Part of the Social and Behavioral Sciences Commons Recommended Citation Wirzburger, Andrew, "A critical discourse analysis of U.S. media coverage of government leaking during the Trump administration" (2018). Theses - ALL. 229. https://surface.syr.edu/thesis/229 This Thesis is brought to you for free and open access by SURFACE. It has been accepted for inclusion in Theses - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract Leaks of government information allow the news media to fulfill their traditional role of watchdog over the government and other powerful figures, yet public opinion about leaking and leakers is mixed. As anti-leak rhetoric proliferates from the President of the United States and others in government agencies, it is worth investigating the discourse employed by the media regarding government leaks and leakers. Using the Dialectical-Relational Approach to Critical Discourse Analysis, this study explored discourse about government leaking in news media during President Trump’s first year in office in order to understand how government leaking is constructed and negotiated as a concept and how it relates to established relations and practices of power in the United States. Analysis of news media coverage of leaking events found that four dominant construals were employed regarding government leaking: legal, political, ethical, and depolitical. News media relied heavily on government and other elite sources when covering leaking events, and these sources were primarily responsible for promoting the dominant construals.
