Country security guard thinks his rules supersede the law. ​This bodycam footage from Montgomery County, Tennessee, captures one of the most stunning, blatant misunderstandings of basic law you will ever see from a county security officer. What starts as a standard First Amendment audit at a county government building quickly devolves into an extreme case of ego-driven overreach, leaving a county sheriff's deputy stuck playing law professor to an incredibly hostile and incompetent guard. ​The situation is simple: A citizen journalist is on public property, outside a government facility, filming. She is exercising her constitutional rights. ​With absolute, unearned confidence, this guard approaches the auditor and demands she stop filming, declaring that government property is "not public property." Let that sink in for a moment. Someone hired to protect a public county facility genuinely believes that the public has no right to be there, and that a citizen requires permission from a facilities manager just to stand on the sidewalk with a camera. ​When a Montgomery County sheriff’s deputy arrives, things take a truly bizarre turn. Instead of backing down when actual law enforcement arrives, the guard doubles down. The deputy, after confirming the law with his superiors, calmly explains to the guard that the auditor is entirely within her legal rights. The ground is public. No laws are being broken. ​But ego is a powerful thing. Instead of accepting the correction, the guard snaps. He begins yelling at the deputy, arguing that his internal company policy somehow supersedes constitutional law. He literally tries to pull rank on a sworn law enforcement officer, claiming the rules are his to enforce and threatening to call higher-ups to get his way. ​It gets worse. When the auditor attempts to walk into the building to file a legitimate public records request—a fundamental right of every American citizen—the guard says he will physically remove her. "You're not going in that building," he barks, threatening removal if she tries to step past him. ​Watching this level of aggression and ignorance play out is infuriating, but it also forces you to ask a much darker question: How many citizens has this man violated the rights of during his career? ​How many everyday people, intimidated by the uniform and the aggressive posture, simply complied and walked away? How many people were denied access to public records, forced off public sidewalks, or unlawfully detained because this man weaponized his ignorance? First Amendment auditors often take a lot of heat, but this video is the exact reason why accountability filming is so vital. Without a camera rolling, this guard's word would have been taken over an ordinary citizen's every single time. ​Fortunately, accountability caught up with him. Once this bodycam footage made its way to the public and county officials saw the liability walking around their complex, action was taken. The guard was officially removed from his position at the facility. ​It is a stark reminder that a uniform is a responsibility, not a license to bully. If you are tasked with protecting a public space, you better understand the rights of the public you are serving.

Bret Weinstein cuts straight to the chase: "We are going to have an endless battle in which those of us who see what we believe is clear evidence of some kind of election rigging or fraud are faced with indignation from a vast array of people portraying themselves as more rigorous and careful who say, 'Where is your evidence? Where exactly is your evidence that there was something wrong with this election?' And we are gonna be caught in the following predicament. No piece of evidence is sufficient to establish that case. And the sum total of all of the evidence contains true things and false things. So it is also no good. So the question is, can you logically deduce that something has gone wrong? I believe you can easily. Can you prove it? No. And not being able to prove it means that the election will proceed. It will be validated by all of the structures, including the courts. And that means that those who take on the power that derives from these elections will be the result of whatever process we just went through, whether it was an election that happened to be anomalous through organic means, or it was the result of some kind of fraud or election rigging. That is not an accident. That is not an accident. And the point that I wanna make primarily is the primary evidence against elections that look like this being organic is not actually in the trickle of evidence that we are actually able to see, the moment by moment vote count that does something strange during the night when some large tranche of ballots is suddenly counted or something like that. The evidence is in the structure of how the elections are actually carried out. These elections are designed to allow fraud that cannot be detected and will not be prosecuted. And that's really the thing that we must focus on." Bret Weinstein
