ROPE Report Short - When The FBI Raids Your House Over An Election Meme

In the absence of our regularly-scheduled guest, ROPE Regular Karmin Grider, Jenni and Michael discussed the curious situation of now-Congressional candidate, Robin Carder. Robin tells the story in her substack, Oklahoma Patriot (https://oklahomapatriot.substack.com/) of questioning several things about the 2020 Oklahoma election, getting goofy answers from the Secretary of the State Election Board and then creating a couple of memes in frustration, which were the impetus for an FBI raid on her home. Granted, the memes were not ones we would probably create, but they certainly fell under the First Amendment to the American Constitution which gives us the right to speak out about whatever we'd like in whatever way we'd like (so long as we aren't actively threatening people's lives or property). How close to a totalitarian state we are depends upon what you actually do to get noticed by the powers that be, apparently. Frankly, Robin's story should concern us all.
