Conservatives are being persecuted from every facet of American society and even the federal government. Former HUD Secretary Dr. Ben Carson addressed the corruption of the federal government in his speech at CPAC in DC 2024.
America is currently experiencing what Carson describes as “a crisis of legitimacy”. Conservatives are failing to find a place in their own country as their country turns its back on them and the federal government perverts its responsibilities to the people. Instead, the Left has weaponized the administrative state and justice system against the people who the government is supposed to answer to.
“Our government and our legacy institutions are losing credibility in the public eye at breakneck speed even though their systematic takeover of America has been going on for years. The federal bureaucracy, the mainstream media, academia, Hollywood, big tech, and every other nexus of power in America today has turned its fire against conservatives, against Christians, against anyone who stands in their way,” said Carson.
The open border, identity politics, the perversion of the education system, the Green New Deal, inflation, the persecution of President Donald Trump by the justice system, and more are further causing Americans to lose faith in their government, and they beginning to struggle beyond disguise under the increasing chaos and neglect of citizens at the hands of the federal government.
“There is nothing radical about what we the people are demanding from our elected representatives. We want safety and security. We want freedom of speech and to practice our religion as is our God-given right. We want secure borders. We want a government that puts our interests first. These are things that used to be the norm in the country, and none of these demands are extreme or outrageous. They should be the simple baseline of legitimate political leadership,” Carson stated.
