Time for action

The Federal Government is now no longer an extension of the People! When the President, and/or his Office, start attacking news agencies, nothing is safe any more. While I don't watch FOX News, or any of the other "news" agencies, it still seems inappropriate to me that any politician would be able to attack any of them, given the Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution.
But for the past, at least 20 years, it seems like we edge closer to a form of government that has nothing to do with what we started with. I am not advocating we return to the 18th Century, but we should retain the rights that were originally granted us by the Founding Fathers. Every day, politicians push legislation promoted by special interests to further restrict us and make us less self reliant. And most of us stand by and wach, assuming someone else will do the right thing and correct our course of action.
It is time for all of us to get off our ass and take back our country from the "powers" that be.
