As law abiding Americans, we thought we could rely on the "power of the ballot box" to resolve our concerns.

We now know that almost everyone with the exception of Donald J. Trump never had any intention of making good on the promises made.

We've been betrayed by almost every Congressperson, Senator, and even the Supreme Court.

Now we wait to see if the long venerated institution of the United States Military will take seriously it's oath to defend the US Constitution against all enemies - foreign and domestic.

If not - this final betrayal will only leave one option. For reasons everyone is painfully aware of, I will not speak of it openly here.

As I sit here today, I still hold faith. However, I am prepared for the alternative and will join with like minded individuals to address our grievances and deliver our revocation of consent to those who intend to rule over us.

Stand strong, Pedes. We are a free people. We always will be. It may not be easy, but we always will be.
