Notes by Libertarian Party | export

 The Palestinians have legitimate grievances. What Hamas did was evil. The IDF response is evil. The college Marxists blocking highways dont march for what I believe in

In short, being antiwar can make you feel very alone in times like this

You aren't alone
Most just stay silent 
 Your government is actively fighting a war against you. 

The most important war to the State is the war for control over truth. And it has been laid bare that the government has no interest or benefit from you knowing what the truth really is. 

You are lied to daily. Manipulated daily. Denied access to facts, figures, and information, daily. 

The Libertarian Party isn't just the Party of Principle. We are the Party of Truth. 

Real data. Real science. Real economics. That adds up to a Real Future. Not something built on lies, debt, and an endless war to control what you think, what you know, and how you view the world around you. 

We are built differently. 
 Oh, we have no opposition to secession at all, it’s in our platform. Frankly there’s a very sound argument that given how divided the country is, a peaceful #NationalDivorce would be preferable to CWII. Sorry, misunderstood the question 
 A few hundred people in Washington, D.C. shouldn't be ruling the lives of 330 million.

This is why we believe in a peaceful dissolution of the federal government.

We are secessionists, and we won't hide it or sugarcoat it. 
 There’s always an attempt by partisans to claim that the 2 parties are so irreconcilably different.

On a few issues they are. But on so many of the most consequential, they’re identical. 

On Ukraine and Israel, Biden and Hillary agree 100% with Lindsey Graham and Nikki Haley 
 We intend to file for Conservatorship Over Biden and McConnell. Here's why:

Now, before you dismiss this as political theater, hear us out. The mental acuity and overall health of our nation's leaders are not matters to be taken lightly. When signs of cognitive decline become evident, it's not just a personal issue; it's a national security concern.

We're all aware of the gaffes, the lapses in memory, the freezes, and the incoherent statements made by these two powerful men. These aren't mere quirks; they're red flags. The decisions made in the Oval Office and on the Senate floor have far-reaching implications, affecting both domestic policy and international relations. If the individuals making these decisions aren't at their cognitive best, the consequences could be dire.

President Biden's frequent verbal missteps and moments of confusion aren't merely embarrassing; they're alarming. From forgetting names to stumbling over words to saying straight up gibberish or shaking hands with the air, the President's behavior raises legitimate questions about his mental fitness for the highest office in the land. This isn't about partisanship; it's about the well-being of our nation.

Similarly, Mitch McConnell has exhibited behavior that should give us all pause. His public appearances have been marked by contradictory statements, a lack of focus, and he has literally froze during press conferences multiple times. As the Minority Leader of the Senate, McConnell wields significant influence. If he's not mentally up to the task, it's not just his problem—it's America's problem.

Beyond the easily observable mental and physical instabilities of both men, the indefensible incurrence of $4.8 Trillion in debt, continued involvement in an unwinnable proxy war in Ukraine, questionable and potentially criminal business and political affiliations, and lack of awareness to the state of the United States domestically make these conservatorships a matter of utmost urgency.

Why Conservatorship?

Conservatorship is a legal mechanism designed to protect individuals who cannot take care of themselves. While it's an extreme measure, we believe the situation calls for it. The Libertarian Party is taking this step to send a clear message: the mental health of our leaders is a priority that should transcend political affiliations.

This action is about more than just two individuals. It's a wake-up call for voters and politicians alike to prioritize mental fitness in our leaders. Cognitive ability should be a non-negotiable qualification for public office.

We, the voters, have the ultimate power to hold our leaders accountable. It's our responsibility to ensure that those in office are mentally capable of the tasks they've been elected to perform. This conservatorship action is a step in that direction, but it's not the end. We must continue to scrutinize, question, and, when necessary, replace those who are not fit to lead.

We are seeking legal representation in these matters in Washington DC so that we can move forward with the proceedings as quickly as possible. If you are a DC probate attorney and you are interested in assisting us with this action, please reach out. We also encourage other aggrieved parties to file for conservatorship of as many incompetent geriatric members of the federal government as possible

We invite you to join us in this critical endeavor. The future of our nation depends on the mental fitness of those at its helm. Let's act before it's too late.

Sincerely,

The Libertarian National Committee
