to add to this, if local governments refuse to install the hardware that the federal government wants to tap into, then there’s nothing for them to tap into.

It’s a lot harder for the federal government to go around placing all these tools around the country than it is for them to simply vacuum up what is already there.

If anybody wants to see the power of controlling local government and its upstream impact, look no further than mom’s for liberty and their assault on school boards nationwide.
