Reaching Critical Mass

So much going on in this country and around the world, one doesn't know where to look first.

On the one hand we have a shrinking economy, as evidenced by the decline in GDP from the 1stQ of this year, the continuing high number of unemployed among college graduates, and the highest number of government dependents in history.
We have a monstrous overload of illegal immigrants, with tens of thousands of children coming through our very porous borders, unaccompanied and carrying diseases.
We have government agencies which appear to be very corrupt, e.g. the IRS, the Veterans Administration, the EPA and the Justice Department.
We have a health care system run by the government which is revealing itself to be costly and restrictive of choice.
We have a President who is constantly giving Congress the middle finger because nothing will stand in the way of his agenda, as he has told us his pen and phone are all that he needs.
We have a political system in which one party mimics the sleazy behavior of the other party to keep their longstanding politicians in power, e.g. 4-decades-in-congress rino Cochran vs. Tea Party backed-McDaniel.
We have a reversal of events in Iraq in which extremists seem to be winning out; costing this country thousands in casualties, trillions in dollars, and a priceless reputation.
We have an administration that seems content with watching while an Islamic caliphate is building in the Middle East, and which will undoubtedly expand its reach unless stopped in its path.
We have old enemies who are rearing their ugly heads to usurp power while they can, e.g. Russia and China.
We have allies who are feeling betrayed by this country, e.g. Israel, Iraq, Afghanistan.
We have the biggest sponsor of terror in the world in Iran working tirelessly to build nuclear weapons to advance their very hostile agenda.
We have an administration who is only too willing to release some of jihad's worst perpetrators, and if that wasn't enough, in exchange for one very controversial deserter.
We have hundreds of people in Asia and Africa getting kidnapped and/or beheaded by maniacs.
We have one American soldier sitting in a Mexican prison for nearly 3 months due to a wrong turn on the road and our President won't extend himself to free him.
And we have a complicit media who seemingly still has the desire to protect and support this administration.

By no means is this the end of the list..this merely represents some of the very disturbing events and actions that are occuring lately. We seem to be reaching critical mass. What's next? What will be the tipping point?
