Let My People Go
Let My People Go
Let My People Go is a modern-day deliverance story rooted in biblical themes and archetypes. But instead of examining the bondage of the children of Israel by Pharaoh, the film focuses on the bondage of the American people. "Pharaoh" is replaced by a wholly infiltrated and weaponized U.S. government directly and indirectly influenced by Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and Marxist forces. The film presents two overlapping narratives of America's enslavement. The first form of slavery is achieved using proprietary "black boxes" and software, where swamp candidates are selected rather than elected. Massive ballot harvesting operations provide the paper trail to cover up the greatest crime in our nation's history - the removal of President Donald J. Trump. The second form of slavery focuses on the real-=life consequences of the Americans who gathered and protested the theft of their votes on November 3rd - the January Sixers - that now languish in prison.
