Office of Senator Deus (Crisis and secession)

[Deus Naturae]

Well, the election is here. I urge all voters to give me a high preference, as a vote against the Labor-Federalist establishment in Nyman and the Leviathan Federal government it has built. A vote for me is a vote for real action against the abuses of the Federal behemoth, a vote for the restoration of the rights of Atlasian citizens, and a vote for an active Atlasia of ideas and debate.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

You may be afflicted with the curse of libertarianism, but I believe you won fair and square. Good luck in the Senate.

[Simfan34]

Congratulations, Deus!

[Dr. Cynic]

I know you hate my views as much as I hate yours. That said though, you were a fine gentleman during the campaign and I want to offer you my congratulations on your election. You were deserving if for no other reason than the very good campaign you ran.

[Senator Cris]

Congratulations, Senator Deus!

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

It's probably going to be a very antagonistic few months but if we can find something to agree on, let us celebrate with pie.

[bore]

Congrats

Your election to the senate is well deserved, even though you're wrong on everything
 
I look forward to a controversial few months.

[Maxwell]

The Democratic-Republican Party will continue its reign of libertarian nightmares! Congratulations, man, glad to see you at work.

[Deus Naturae]

Thank you all for your kind words. Alfred, it is an honor to have defeated you as you can a good race, and the same goes for Cynic and Polnut. I look forward to that pie, hopefully baked with fruit no longer subject to Department of Agriculture regulation. I would also like to voice support for the people of the Pacific who have suffered in the wake of the recent earthquake. I am confident that with the leadership of Governor Simfan the Pacific will recover from this event, as it has recovered from so many others in the past.

I also thank everyone who showed up to vote for me, and I promise to quickly get underway with my agenda to restore liberty, prosperity, and activity. Thank you and Dave bless.

yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Deus Naturae]

With regard to the PPT election, I have to say that I'm currently undecided. Any prospective candidates seeking my vote should PM me to make their case and offer me whatever favors/bribes they think necessary to gain my support.

[Deus Naturae]

It pains me to witness the decline and fall of our once great Republic. What was once a land of republican virtue and civil harmony has degenerated into a cesspool of autocracy and civil war. With the now-disgraced former President trying to strongman the GM into submission and rival military thugs (Snowstalker and Simfan) marching across the land in an attempt to commandeer the government, the former in the name of socialist dictatorship, and the latter ostensibly in the name of "restoring democracy" but in reality merely attempting to secure power for himself and impose his authoritarian will on Atlasia.

There is a way forward out of this darkness, a way to restore the civil peace and Constitutional government our forebears fought for. That way is secession. The Federal behemoth in Nyman has failed. For too long has the megalomaniacal political class in Nyman abused the people of our republic, and the latest terrorist attack (no doubt blowback from their recent bombing campaign in Iraq) is just what happened to finally plunge us into total chaos. At this point, the only hope is for Regional governments to secede from the mismanaged nightmare that is the Federal government, and form their own sovereign, Constitutional governments in the hope of avoiding the mistakes that have culminated in the disaster we see today. I encourage every Region to secede, but especially my own beloved Northeast, and I will do everything within my power to advance the cause of any Regional secession movements.

Thank you and Dave bless.

[Simfan34]

I could hardly impose my "authoritarian will" on an orange, much less wish to do so on the country! Tyrion, and only Tyrion, is the President.

[Snowstalker Mk. II]

I recommend the secession of Deus's head from the rest of his body.

[Adam Griffin]

The blasphemous confederate in question shall go through the same experience as The People did all those years ago when it tried to secede, but before that happens, he will be peacefully separated from the rest of the country and placed deep within the Laborinth for safekeeping.

[Deus Naturae]

After a close grapple with the authorities in Buffalo, I have journeyed to the great Northeastern State of Vermont, where I am attending one of the many Northeast secession rallies occurring across our fair Region:

[Dr. Cynic]

This is a treasonous move, Senator. Such a thing should force your expulsion from the Senate and from ever holding office again, along with the other silly sods going through with this. Tyrion is President and anyone attempting to subvert that is clearly a traitor to our Republic.

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

I agree completely!

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

How can one serve as an at-large Senator, representing all Atlasians across the country, when you are advocating killing it?

[GAworth]

Valid Point. Response?

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

Now that you've been pardoned, Senator, do you still support Northeast secession or have you abandoned your seditious ways?

Edit: I should add that the President's pardon does not technically protect you from impeachment for your secessionist activities

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

I'd like to note that, as God-Emperor of the Greater Rochester Area, Deus is always welcome in our fine city.
