One of the disturbing reports to come out of the constant attacks on civil rights during the COVID-19 pandemic came out of Michigan.

Michigan's Governor Whitmer, called the "lockdown queen" by some of her critics, famously tried to forbid the citizens in her state from buying seeds and other "non-essential" items.

Before all the rioting and looting broke out - in other words, back when the news was telling us that protests could spread COVID-19, - there were protests during which legally armed citizens marched on the state capitol.

It came out recently that a political group that supports Whitmer and is against the protests used cell phone data to track the movements of the protesters.

That's right: they used publicly available information from phones pinging cell towers to put hundreds of patriot protesters under surveillance.

But that's not the worst of it, because under the guise of "contact tracing" for COVID-19 infections...

...The Government Might ALREADY Be Tracking Your Movements

In New York, the people now working for the state government's "contact tracing" team - in the state that was the epicenter of the COVID-19 pandemic - admitted they aren't asking people whether they participated in the George Floyd protests.

But you can bet those same tracers have put thousands of OTHER people under surveillance, using their phones.

It's already happening overseas: Apple and Google have used updates to their smartphone networks to install contact tracing apps on user's iPhones and Androids... without telling them.

These apps give the government the ability to track everywhere you go.

And don't you DARE think they'll stop at just "tracing infections," because they've already admitted that not all "contacts" are equal.

(If they were, then anybody who attended any large protest would be "traced," and that's not what's happening.)

In other words, using the cover of "public health," they can tell if you've gone to the gun store... the shooting range... a political rally... and anywhere ELSE "Big Brother" might want to keep tabs on you.

This is an obvious power grab... but really, it's just an expansion of what the Powers That Are were already doing.

Both "Big Tech" and "Big Government" work together every day to destroy our freedom, in fact.

We've seen examples of this in the way Facebook and other social media companies have censored LEGITIMATE information about COVID-19, flagging it as "spam" or banning it as violations of "community standards."

Everywhere you look, they're doing an end-run around the Constitution, infringing on our rights in the name of the "greater good" - and, lately, for public health - as if stopping you from buying seeds to plant a garden, or tracking your every move, will stop you from getting sick!

Before COVID-19, these power-hungry politicians were all excited about using "red flag" laws to take away your guns - again, without due process - and in Virginia, that's just what they did, using the pandemic to seal the deal with minimal resistance from the public.

What this means is that in more and more states across the nation, all it takes is somebody accusing you of "thought-crime" - and then you're guilty until proven innocent instead of the other way around as the laws are designed.

With nothing to stop them, the politicians and the Big Tech censors are going to keep on spying on you, manipulating you, and violating your Constitutional rights...

...all while telling you that it's for your own good!

And thanks to government initiatives like The Patriot Act and all the new laws they're passing now, you can be "red flagged," rounded up, and held against your will as a potential "home grown terrorist" because of your beliefs -- things like:

Believing in the 2nd Amendment
Storing away "survival food"
Buying more than 2 guns
Purchasing "excessive" amounts of ammo
Even comments you make on Facebook and Twitter!
And that's not even the worst of it...

Your neighbors will actually be financially REWARDED to turn you in as a "suspect" if they know (or even THINK) you are doing any of these actions, because the government has set up "tip lines" so they can squeal on you.

If you see something, say something... right?

You already know about these threats, but what you might NOT know are the simple steps you should be taking... no, wait... that you MUST be taking... in order to protect yourself from these attacks on our rights and freedoms.

Don't tell yourself that there's nothing you can do.

Don't just give up, or try not to think about it.

There are things we can do to stay off the radar.

We need to STOP giving our information to the government and to Big Tech.

It isn't actually difficult to stop them from spying on you or "contact tracing" you.

But you've got to start now. Don't make more mistakes.
Don't make it easier for these people to invade your privacy.

Prepare. Train. Survive. In Liberty brothers and sisters. In Liberty.
