CLEAN HOUSE, Drain ALL Swamps

The United states of America, Oath of Office. The same oath elected officials take and appointed officials must swear on prior to beginning a term.

Village, Town, County, State and Federal- all must take it.

Historians, Ethics Boards, Planning Boards, Zoning Boards of Appeal, Village Clerks, Mayors and Supervisors.

The perfect time for all elected officials to each, individually, step forward and publicly declare whether they are with us or against us as a nation. “One Nation, Indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all,” as we recite when we Pledge Allegiance to Our Nation’s Flag.

Do you condemn or condone the actions of sedition and insurrection against our nation’s capital?

What took place would be the very same as if, after recent town and village elections, the very same hoards descended upon the seat of local governments.

EXAMPLE: Angry hoards surrounding 110 Bracken Road, smashing windows, smashing doors, attacking the workers within the building, smearing feces throughout the hallways and overturning desks, destroying property, planting pipe bombs and killing. All the while declaring the elected supervisor and town board as illegitimate, calling for their removal and even calling for their hanging.

So now at the next local government public meeting, town and village. State clearly, and individually, as to where you stand on the Oath of Office when you take it and where you stand on the assault on our Democracy in Washington DC last week. There is no excuse to sidestep or to equivocate.
Remember, no answer, is an answer!
