CTH Admin Stella reminded me of an article written in May of 2013 when CTH was urgently, desperately, trying to awaken more people to see the natural conclusion to the events unfolding. Events we were directly challenging.
At the time George Zimmerman was under attack; then came Ferguson (Wilson -vs- Mike Brown); then Baltimore (Freddie Gray -vs- Baltimore Six); but the natural alignment… the purpose of the events… was a leftist probe into weaponized narrative engineering in order to advance completely false and fabricated stories. The U.S. media were testing whether they could control the outlook of Americans.
The shift in attack direction from media at the time was alarming. No longer was the media trying to excuse the transparently guilty of accountability; starting in 2012 what the new-era attack angle started to do was falsely accuse the transparently innocent.
Read that again, because it was a profound difference; and inflection point.
Leftists in politics and media were probing their ability to engineer entirely false positions and assertions of facts. This was new because they were now aligning to target the innocent. In 2013 CTH was trying to warn; to tell the story of where this was going to end up. The clarion call has a similar resonance today, albeit with an increased urgency.
A Paradigm Shift is needed – Urgently. It cannot be provided to you, you must develop it within your own mind – and you’d better do it quick; or you will lose.
(* Disclaimer – This post is a collaboration of thoughts from both Sharon and Sundance. Sharon has the keen insightful bits, and Sundance reflects the indignation – any curse words are Sundance’s – because Miss Sharon don’t cuss, ever.)
If you are a regular reader of this site you are generally a person who engages in intellectual discussion on daily events and more than likely a root cause thinker. Meaning you are able to grasp events at their cause and not at their consequence.
However, for some reason, even those who understand big picture dynamics are still comfortable sticking their heads in the sand about “motive”. Most people are still clinging to actual beliefs around a principle of ‘rule of law’ that applies to National Leadership.
You’d better change that thinking quickly – or you’ll be asking ‘what happened’ far too late.
There seems to be a willful blindness on the part of the American people, a chosen refusal to acknowledge the implications of the unAmerican and unConstititional behaviors, actions and outcomes we are being served on a daily basis.
It can no longer be presumed to be a matter of “I can’t see what’s happening” because a whole lot of normal Americans really are clean and articulate.
“I can’t see it” just doesn’t cut it.
Bullsh!t! You can see it, you are just choosing to reconcile the irreconcilable because it is more comforting to ignore the truth of it. You are scared:
-
-
- You are scared of being labeled
- You are scared of being belittled
- You are scared of being Alinsky’d.
- You are scared of being targeted.
- You are scared because you have never been here before.
- You are scared of being right.
-
Just be honest. Avoidance has become your survival mechanism.
It’s more along the lines of “I see what’s happening, but it’s scary and complicated and confusing, and if I admit that I see it, I will become responsible in a way that I am not if I keep pretending I can’t see it or hear it or maybe I don’t understand it.”
Our Republic has become Kitty Genovese screaming in the darkness, being assaulted repeatedly and viciously, while onlookers sitting in the darkness startle onto their feet–some trying to reach for phones or light switches while others try to hush them, accusing them of exaggerated reactions.
The screams reach some homes where the residents look nervously and silently at one another, really hoping that someone else will call the cops, because obviously something really bad is happening out there.
Now, like then, you, like those people in New York, look around and say well someone is going to do something about this usurpation of power and unconstitutional action. So you pull the comfy blankies of historical public leadership reference over your head, cover your ears, block out the sights and the sounds, and do nothing.
You don’t even accept the fact a woman, Lady Liberty, our republic, is being repeatedly stabbed, carved up and her flesh torn from her body. She is bleeding on your grass and her bloody hand prints are on your trees and sidewalks. You know it, yet you lie there.
Doing what? Really? If not you,….. WHO? Who is “them”?
Remember the visual illusions on big cards, (Rorschach tests) just black and white splotches that required you to “stare just right”– and when you did, you could see the ink-drawn cow in a snow drift? That’s the one we grew up with–yours might have had palm trees in it or something else. But you stared hard, knowing that eventually you would see a clear picture —ah! There it is! For just a minute, but you saw it there–for just a minute.
How many are sitting in the midst of this implosion still believing that if they stare hard enough at the national mess they will still see a Constitutional government and a Representative Republic?
Well, stare as long as you want. The details of a Constitutional Representative Republic will no longer come into focus because it turns out that the Republic was apparently stitched together with dissolvable thread like the surgeons use.
Why don’t we dare say what is so? Are we a bit afraid that if we give up the willful blindness we will perhaps start screaming and not be able to stop? Do we think we have so little courage? Do we really believe that we have no resources to bring to the battle? Or nothing more to contribute to the turning of the battle?
There are patriots who some might say resemble one of those slightly mad orchestra conductors who keep yelling, “More trumpet! More TRUMPET!” Many of you are such slightly mad orchestra leaders. Don’t be alarmed by some of the strange looks you are getting these days.
What is the source of this passive willingness that accepts illegal activity behind phrases like “they wouldn’t do that….” when they obviously are doing it?
In 1974, Patty Hearst was kidnapped by the Symbionese Liberation Army. She lay in a California closet in her wet and smell for days that turned into weeks. Finally, it made sense in what was left of her 19 year old mind to pick up an M-1 carbine and carry it into a bank to assist the SLA with an armed robbery. Passive willingness, no matter how troubled underneath, is a choice: there’s something that’s being purchased by the passivity –and something that’s being traded away for it. Transactions are happening.
Why do normal Americans get swept into accepting these somewhat silent transactions that result in their cooperation with those who care nothing for our Constitutional Republic? (Be sure of this–they really don’t mind if we disagree, if we vent, if we vote, even if we organize…as long as they get to keep doing what they are doing. They really don’t mind us. At all. Isn’t that obvious by now?)
But back to the question–why do the silent transactions happen? Perhaps because the alternative to passive willingness is active refusal–and there it is: the price tag for active refusal may actually be quite high–and will often be perceived of as just being too high–and besides that, is an unknown. There’s a deep deception involved with survival instinct that prevents a true comparison from being made between what’s being gained and what’s being lost as judgments are made (often by default) in the midst of confusing and threatening events. Patty Hearst’s M-1 probably bought her a momentary sense of safety in her personal world gone crazy.
Those whose hold on power depends on deception are always able to find an audience of those willing to be deceived. Now the audience of those willing to be deceived is a flexible group in terms of numbers and identities. Even those who have been in that audience for some time may one day walk away from it. What is it that makes folks stay in that audience? What price are they afraid of paying? What deception are they unwilling to let go of?
While we we use the word passive to describe this “willingness to continue in deception,” this is not an experience shaded in peaceful lavenders, mint greens and dappled sunlight. This is the deadly passivity of muscles that no longer fire; tiny electrical charges that no longer leap from one synapse to the next.
This is as passivity says: “I won’t begin resisting, because I know that once begun, I must continue. Rather than assert myself and perhaps fail (or get really scared), I will sustain myself where I am trapped. I will muffle my moans so as not to risk exposure and I will call it self-control. Winston Churchill would have called it cowardice but I will call it pragmatic caution.”
It’s desperately necessary for our survival that we become disillusioned–and quickly.
…It’s desperately necessary for our survival that we become disillusioned–and quickly.
Think about that word: Dis-illusioned. Having illusions exposed and removing them from the decision-making process. It’s important, because illusions that are defended and protected and argued for, instead of being exposed, will always take us to default decisions that are inherently based on unreality.
Isaac Newton said that passivity in objects was predictable. Perhaps passivity in troubled humans is predictable as well. He said it this way with regard to objects:
An object that is at rest will stay at rest unless an unbalanced force acts upon it.
So–it appears that we need an unbalanced force to act upon these passively willing objects that are content to remain at rest. MORE TRUMPET, please.
In I Corinthians 14 the Apostle Paul asks a really sensible question in verse 8 “….if the trumpet makes an uncertain sound, who will prepare for battle?”
WE NEED TRUMPETS
We need lots of trumpets, with soaring sounds that pierce the sky. Trumpets that play “Reveille” to wake more people up. Trumpets that broadcast victories. Trumpets that play “Taps” (when needed) over losses. Trumpets that signal which way to run to the battle. Trumpets that provide cadence and courage.
WE NEED TRUMPETS
Another question posed by Sundance–what is this disconnect, this insanity of continuing to say “they wouldn’t, they couldn’t, they can’t” when they will, they can and they are—in real time–today?
Freedom-loving Germans who chose active resistance against the Third Reich saw the need for it as early as the mid-1930’s. Germany’s patriots (both in and out of uniform) had been actively resisting the darkness for years before her soldiers saw the forests of Poland in 1939.
One of those patriots was Dietrich Bonhoeffer, identified as Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy in the subtitle of a biography authored by Eric Metaxas. There were many roles filled by Bonhoeffer. Two of the key ones were being a nonconformist/government-resisting/stagnant-church-poking-in-the-ribs pastor on one hand and an active dissident and saboteur who worked with generals and citizens alike to resist the Nazi machine on the other.
As early as 1935, Bonhoeffer identified a dilemma that marked a cross-over of sorts for many of them. Here was the question it turned on: When did a form of passive resistance become exposed as not actually being resistance?
As a teaching pastor and theologian, he had other pastors looking to him for guidance with regard to how best to frame their “confession of the Gospel” in the presence of Nazism’s co-opting of the work of the churches (the willing churches were put “under the protection of the Third Reich” early on–isn’t that special….). He struggled with his own thoughts and the instinct that drove so many Germans–churched and nonchurched alike–the instinct to take a position without taking action.
Eberhard Bethge, German Protestant theologian and close friend of Bonhoeffer’s wrote this summary of Bonhoeffer’s thoughts:
Bonhoeffer introduced us in 1935 to the problem of what we today call political resistance. The levels of confession and of resistance could longer be kept neatly apart. The escalating persecution of the Jews generated an increasingly intolerable situation, especially for Bonhoeffer himself. We now realized that mere confession, no matter how courageous, inescapably meant complicity with the murderers, even though there would always be new acts of refusing to be co-opted and even though we would preach “Christ alone” Sunday after Sunday. During the whole time the Nazi state never considered it necessary to prohibit such preaching. Why should it?
Thus we were approaching the borderline between confession and resistance; and if we did not cross this border, our confession was going to be no better than cooperation with the criminals. And so it became clear where the problem lay for the Confessing Church: we were resisting by way of confession, but we were not confessing by way of resistance.
Speaking now only of our relationship to the State….are we suffering under the illusion that we can indefinitely resist by way of confession (i.e., “standing for” conservative ideals and Constitutional truths) without being troubled by the need for confessing by way of resisting–to borrow Bonhoeffer’s phrase? If we are, is it time to become dis-illusioned?
Our context is not the same as his was, but I think the question is similar. It’s not inherently a faith issue, although Bonhoeffer experienced it in that context.
Reconcile Your Complacency Against This
My conservative perspectives, my support of what’s left of our Republic and my bleats of dismay at what’s being done to our Constitution in broad daylight are not changing what’s actually happening.
TRUMPETS, Wolverines. TRUMPETS !!
this is the drowning sailor-dolphin paradox.
We hear about the drowning sailors pushed to shore by dolphins. This is how humans think about miracles and heroes.
but somehow the sailors pushed further out to sea by the dolphins never give their report.
GOD IS THE OCEAN. HE REPORTS EVERYTHING.
when we fully understand the truth, even slightly as our imperfect and incomplete nature allows us to be, we throw away the fear of consequence, and we understand the vanity of waiting for dolphins, white horses, and rainbows.
I bring you good news: GOD IS WITH YOU. HE WILL NEVER ABANDON THE RIGHTEOUS.
trust in the Lord.
God Bless America…
God is everywhere, but WE are responsible to do God’s work. He will not raise a hand unless we do so in His name.
“Praise God, and pass the ammunition” comes to mind.
i’ll not attach God’s name to any action i take. thats what the crazy muslims do. what i do i’ll lay before the Lord when that time comes.
I would say God is constantly working to bring his kingdom to pass on the earth. The question remains: Are we resolved to join him in this work, on his terms? Peter and Paul did, as well the rest of the Apostles
…..in the manner of the epistle I Peter, I Timothy, etc.
Had a friend who always reminded me that being a follower of Christ is not for the faint of heart. What happened and happens to Christians in this world does not make a great recruitment poster.
“God is with you. He will never abandon the righteous.”
While it’s true that God does not abandon us… I am not entirely sure what that means exactly.
Does it mean that God will … not permit the “righteous” to suffer extraordinary loss, including death at the hands of evil-doers?
No… b/c as Christ said: “the flesh is nothing; I am speaking to you about spirit and life.”
That belief– that God will not abandon the righteous… is basically the biblical story of Job.
What Job’s “friends” said to him when he lost everything, suffered many physical maladies and his children died… was… “what did you (Job) DO to cause God’s wrath against you?
The view was that Job… was NOT righteous and these sufferings & tragedies were he experienced … were punishments by God for the unrighteous & sinful acts he must have committed. In other words, Job was getting what he … deserved, when the opposite was true.
Reality is… the early Christians WERE fed to the lions, and ripped to shreds (often singing as they died) merely for refusing to deny Christ or hail Caesar as God.
Did these Christian die an excruciating death b/c they were … unrighteous? No.
Did Blacks deserve to be enslaved in America for 2 centuries+ b/c they were unrighteous? No.
All OTHER slaves– throughout recorded history– and there is NO time in 4000+ years in which some people have not been enslaved, including now, and I believe slavery of 1000s currently exists inside the USA (and all over the world) but it has nothing to do with … race, color of skin. Those enslaved … now… are they enslaved b/c God views them as unrighteous? No.
The Jews, during the Holocaust in WWII, were they enslaved, tortured and slaughtered b/c they were unrighteous? No.
The FLESH IS NOTHING as Our Lord said b/c God sees the flesh as nothing. He provides for us, certainly, and often protects us from physical harm… but not always… and we do not understand … why. It IS a divine mystery.
Not sure what will happen… in the days, months and years ahead in our own country… shockingly. We MAY be asked to sacrifice the “last full measure of devotion” (our lives, shelter, food, safety)… and it may be VERY bad, very dangerous in the USA, and the rest of the world too.
If it is… it will FEEL like God is abandoning us. We may only have our spiritual faith to sustain us having lost all else.
The writing on the wall… now, in the USA… is that WE are the bad, evil insurrectionists and domestic terrorists who DESERVE not even the most basic rights promised us in the US Constitution– all that stands between us and tyranny.
The terrifying thing about … the cold blooded murder of Ashli Babbit is that most Americans DO NOT CARE that she was murdered. MANY actually believe, and say, she got what she deserved.
A Capital Police officer will lay “in state” in the Capital, intentionally during President Trump’s faux impeachment trial… for added… theatrics.
Not sure which of the two capital police, who died on Jan 6, will lay “in state.” One, I believe committed suicide and the other died of a heart attack (natural causes).
Most Americans view him as a martyr deserving of great respect and mourning… but no one has ANY MERCY for Ashli Babbit. Her murderer will not even be charged with any crime. Even his name is hidden to protect his identity.
I … fear this is … our (Trump supporters’) future fate too. In fact, MAYBE that is the REASON for what is likely a hoax killing of Ashli Babbit.
Its a TEST… to see IF we can be turned into the pariahs that … Jews were made to be in Nazi Germany. It was a slow process in Germany too.
In 1930s Germany, the German people were … conditioned, brainwashed, over time, to view Jews as … dangerous, as the cause of the problems in Germany… and thus, ultimately, deserving of extermination. It was a process.
I do sense and fear… the same/a similar PROCESS is being conducted in the USA today and we, faithful Christian and Jewish Trump supporters are being … labeled with our own “yellow star.”
Its not nothing that 400 attendees at the Jan 6th protest have been rounded up by the FBI, their names, faces, residences, bios splattered all over the newspapers. Most did little more than… trespass at the Capital, a tourist attraction… and most were arguably… invited into this tourist site when Capital Police OPENED the doors.
The fact that NO ONE cares about the cold blooded murder of Ashli Babbit, who merely attemped to climb through a window, unarmed, into a huge empty hallway… is … chilling. And NO charges will be filed against her killer and even his identity will be protected
The TEST is working. Americans ARE being brainwashed to be CALLOUS and merciless… toward Trump supporters. Many believe Ashli got what she deserved. Slowly, in 1930s Germany, the German people were … conditioned to believe that the initial unjust treatment of Jews was also… deserved… and ultimately that conditioning resulted in the torment and mass execution of 6 million Jews.
I am still in shock, even disbelief… at all the injustice that has occurred for 4 years… and continuing… and getting… worse and more dangerous… as the WEEKS pass. I am also one of the ones… talking about it but not really DOING anything about it.
To be honest… I do fear many of the things Sundance is saying — active protest may well,
probably will… cost me the loss of my income, being targetted by the FBI, the IRS, loss of home, friends, some family, maybe imprisonment.
What we learned.. from what the FBI and DOJ, CIA… was able to DO to even the POTUS– manufacture BS evidence to accuse, impeach, attempt to destroy him. What was done to Gen. Flynn is terrifying. The courts are corrupt too…so, in reality, there IS NO JUSTICE. There is NO RULE OF LAW we can count on.
If the govt DECIDES they don’t like us, or we are a political threat … they CAN, and they will, simply show up at our door in the middle of the night — as they did to Stone– and take us away. Then simply manufacture evidence against us. NOTHING needs to be true.
So yep… I am scared. Even commenting here is risky, maybe not at this moment but likely in the future.
The muzzle masks of submission are the new Jew Badges.
Amen.
Funny you should say that… I Put the Star of David on my spit shield last July.
Very few ever notice it,
Even fewer (zero, at this point eight months later) say anything.
Seneca – I’m about to roll the odometer over to 78 soon. Most of my social interaction is with contemporaries in a small, once-booming “mill town” that’s now a backwater. These people are terrified of the China virus! Few are computer literate, so CNN fills their heads with “numbers” every night. Amazingly, to me, most of the men are WWII and Korea vets.
One was up on the roof of the Admin bldg with his Springfield ’03 shooting at the pilots at Pearl Harbor! Navy radioman, went thru much of the island campaign with the Marines to where they made him an Honorary Marine. His courage is unquestionable!
He has not been out of his house since this carp started. Only a daughter can come in, masked, carrying groceries. Nobody else! He’s going to die of a heart attack because he can’t find anybody to get ‘the shots‘ from. He’s in a literal panic!
Long-winded way to say I don’t disparage those who want to wear the muzzle of obedience. I try to tell them the truth, but when I still get the “wide side-eye”, I just shake my head and move on.
I agree. They can kill the body. They cannot kill the soul.
That is why action needs to be en masse, and about something that people around the world would be appalled to see stopped, or violent action taken against.
Think Tiananmen Square, think voting rights marches, think Democracy!
Anyone standing up for freedom against oppression and then being oppressed, is going to look bad all around the world. We are supposed to be the beacon light of Democracy. We show the world we are not, but millions need to march for it.
MARCH FOR FREEDOM!
The VOTING RIGHTS ACT! ?
The left/dems always talk like THEY are the defenders of voting rights… when, in reality, they are sniveling CHEATERS, not interested in authentic voting rights at all. They WILL STEAL anyone’s vote to win.
They likely DID steal MANY black votes in 2020, and 2016 too.
Very unlikely Blacks rushed to the polls to vote for racist-mouthed old … whiteguy biden who has not DONE anything of note for blacks in the 47 years he sat in Congress.
WE NEED TO BE THE NEW DEFENDERS OF VOTING RIGHTS… b/c in truth we already are. We JUST demand fair and honest elections. Dems never want fair & honest elections… and they NEVER SAY they do either. They demand ALL votes be counted even blatantly fraudulent ones.
Thank you for the speaking the truth.
there is much confusion about the meaning of God will not abandon you.
If your fears are rooted in the flesh, then none of these questions really matter.
and THAT IS the lesson of JOB.
understand that GOD DOES NOT ABANDON ANYONE.
it’s the promise HE FULFILLED COMPLETELY AT THE CROSS!
Understand this. This does not mean misery and even death can be avoided.
What is means is that GOD HAS TAKEN CARE OF EVERYTHING THAT MATTERS.
Why do we suffer? why does the dolphin push some sailors to shore and others far our to sea?
the are the two questions that “VEX” humans into confusion.
We will never KNOW the answers to these questions. WE ARE NOT GODS.
But we are his creation. And GOD does not abandon his creation. It’s the promise that matters.
if you have any doubts about this, then I can only recommend that you make the effort to pray about it…
with respect to how much risk you are willing to take to either save some for the swim back or burn your ships at the distant island.
That is not something I can offer you any advise. I know what IT WILL TAKE to order this corrupt evil into control.
It WILL TAKE GOD. And it WILL REQUIRE HUMANS to act.
yours is a personal decision as is every single other.
but just keep this in your memory..and be clear about this.
the ONLY REASON WE ARE HERE RIGHT NOW, experiencing this life, is directly attributed to enormous sacrifices and losses so staggering sober it should force us to shudder each day we wake up realizing how priviledged we are to have these people who came before us, do all the hard work.
and like JOB..the lesson…we understand what is required…for each…and all.
Pray about it. God will show you the way.
God Bless America
?? In the spirit of this excellent article I hope this stark wake-up call is permitted.
Yeah, that high road stuff works so well. /////
Indeed Houston has a problem. Sheila Jackson Lee.
…and Al Green…and Sylvia Garcia…
I lost a loved one to a drive by shooting. Wrong place, wrong time, actually neither, doing something they loved and got caught in the middle of a gang “territory” war. 100 people there and they alone took a bullet and died.
The neighborhood went into NIMBY mode, “not in my backyard”. They were in complete denial.
You cannot fix it until you face it.
I always hated (disliked immensely) that term “wrong place wrong time” they seemed to always be where they were supposed to be. It was always the other person who was not supposed to be there in the first place.
Many of us are truly prepared to put it ALL on the line. But there is currently no plan. Our leader is President Trump. I’m looking for plans to be forthcoming soon. I have to do a “gratitude list” often these days to keep my serenity and focus. I’m spending time reading the scriptures and getting back into top physical condition. I was expressing my concerns passionately last week to a friend. His response…”I understand, I see the corruption, but do as you wish, I’ll sit this out and watch”. Made me furious. He, like so many in today’s culture are so void of self respect or concern for anything beyond themselves, they’re perfectly willing to sit on the sidelines, while others put their assess on the line, to win freedoms that he will enjoy. My dad was a part of “The Greatest Generation”. One of the greatest gifts he gave me, were his last words he spoke directly to me…”Son, you are the man I always hoped and prayed you would be when I first saw you in the nursery window”. He grew up extremely poor, but was one of the “wealthiest” people I’ve ever known in terms of those virtues that truly define our “wealth”. He passed that down to his son’s and I, in turn, have made every effort to honor him by living it and passing to his grandchildren. He told me of people during WW2, who went to extreme lengths to avoid war. I suppose there will always be those. None of us will get out of this life alive, but because of Christ, my eternal life began years ago. No one can take that away. It’s this faith and the lessons my dad taught me that causes me to fear no man and to risk it all, if need be, to fight evil. We are victors!
Found you in the bin…. 🙁
And what a GREAT find it IS, Ad rem!
Comment of the Day, perhaps?
“…fear no man and risk it all…”. Beautifully said! What we have to fear is NO America – let’s roll!
This might be the last one they can “sit out.” I anger with your anger. I feel it every single day.
Well, those words from your Dad are priceless and what we all need to hear. Similarly, my Mother said one day late in her life, “i don’t know what I ever did to deserve a son such as you’. Worth so much.
Another troubling aspect for me is that I have so many acquantances/friends that seem not to care as long as Trump was gotten rid of. Beyond comprehension. And instead, they give me those looks of condemnation as tho, I no not of what I speak. These are church folks. Not Bonhoeffer caliber.
I’m not sure “sitting this one out” is going to be an option for any of us.
What we… need is… large numbers and coordination and, right– a plan… that can be implemented by 1000s, simultaneously, in all/most states.
That requires big time coordination. We do need something like twitter…which is likely WHY conservatives HAVE had their accounts cancelled by the 100s of 1000s by now– on many platforms.
The left/dems do not want us to be ABLE to do what THEY do.
We need to be peaceful… b/c we ARE being labeled as insurrectionists, seditionists, domestic terrorists so we need to be SMART.
IMO… the smart model is MLK Jr’s FREEDOM marches. The reason they worked is because the American people SAW WHO the real aggressors were… and WHO the real victims were.
There MAY come a day when we have no other choice except to fight, literally, as if this is a 2nd American Revolution or another, but different, CW. Different because it will not be a collection of states fighting other states. It will be divided forces WITHIN each state fighting each other… but we are NOT there yet and do NOT want to ever get there. It will be disasterous for the nation and our enemies in the world WILL take advantage of the chaos that will result.
Understand. Not to be contentious, but when you have foreign nations rigging your elections and receiving money, we’re there
Yes.. good point.
And me too. I am not trying to be contentious. Just trying to figure out WHAT we can do and HOW we can do it to achieve the goal– actually succeed in restoring the Republic.
So, SonofTrump, what do YOU view our actions should be? There must be a tactical, strategic plan. Do you have a process in mind?
We are at a disadvantage. We cannot just grab our guns and run toward the state house or Congress. We will simply be put down, justifiably, in a matter of minutes. And, we will not win over Americans either. They will react much as they are re: the Jan 6 mess.
IMO, the point of any armed battle — assuming that’s what you mean– is to WIN… not just fight on principle. We must fight smart and we do not know what our actual numbers are yet. We have no organization or coordinator yet.
In addition, the FBI has all the tools to surveillance, infiltrate, monitor our every movement AND they ARE starting a program of hunting down all conservative “right wing” groups now.
While I do not have a comprehensive plan, I do have some ideas regarding some of the primary pillows. Some have suggested to start locally and proceed from that point. To me, that implies that National and local approaches are mutually exclusive. Not at all, they go hand and glove. One of the first priorities is to educate the common voter, providing facts as well as revealing distortions, lies and double standards. Keep the message simple. For the most part people are not going to read a PDF file, and most would not understand it or relate how it effects them and their family. We have to communicate to them how it impacts them. Then let them know the identity and the committee assignments of their congressmen/senators and how they voted….keep it simple. For the most part, people desire to be included, feeling that they matter and are making a difference. It’s not that people are reluctant to participate, it’s they don’t know how. Knowledge is power. It’s sad to see that many will know who won The Bachelorette or sport’s statistics, but have zero clue about how the government is run or how it will impacts their lives. It’s truly sad.
With knowledge and empowerment, politicians will be held accountable by their constituents. This needs to be done publicly but civilly. Primary these rats. I’ve already reached out to some encouraging them to seek office. I’ve had a good response by one in particular for Senate.
But, there comes a point where “I just don’t know what to do”, is a feeble excuse. A journey all begins with the first step. It’s a process, not an event.
Seek those who possess leadership skills, with a network for resources. The particular person I’ve contacted is a multi-millionaire, who started from scratch, built an unbelievable company with hard work and intelligence. But more importantly, he has not forgotten who he is and has a deep concern and passion to serve our country. He has put forth well articulated plans. We all know people like this.
The defeatist attitude must come to a screeching halt! I see some constantly wringing their hands. There are times where we all feel that way. I understand. But, as scriptures tell us, we must cast down these thoughts that exalt themselves against The Word of God. Instead we are to claim our inheritance and our identities. This means acting like it!
In some cases, the initial step may be like minds meeting over a meal, being intentional to a process and working! Many love to talk, but will not give of their time and money. This is an opportunity to communicate the consequences of waiting for someone else to step up.
It’s time to start. Perfect cannot be the enemy of good or an excuse to do nothing. Success is not linear, neither is life. But no matter the route, as people of faith, we know our destination
Pillars. Be watching too much Mike Lindell!
And report back to our fellow Treepers in what we’ve done, it’s success or lack of and what to do differently. We need to celebrate those victories and learning from our opponents as a community
Thank you. Wise words.
Exactly. The very day that I opened a list on Twitter to organize communications between Patriots that lived in my state, I was permanently banned.

Outstanding! One of our greatest challenges, however, is that no one is organized.. Yes, there is a leader in PDJT, but he will be silenced via the criminals, i.e. the MSM/DOJunta and the CIA. “WE” are 90-100 million strong, but not powerful enough to make change as WE do not control anything.
I peruse multiple sites and found this on ZH, sometimes a very useful site for the world finance issues. This article states “The problem with conservatives is that we tend to be so independent that we avoid organization. This is a problem because it leads to self-isolation.” It is absolutely valid. Most work jobs (we are not parasites on the government teet) and are very busy raising families and paying our bills. it is very difficult to organize and keep everything else together. The Nazi Demonrats are all pigs at the trough…and they have time on their hands to stay together, including Antifa/BLM – Soros and Obama’s “civilian army”.

Bingo on being too autonomous. That’s our strength, but as I’ve said for most of my life, one’s strength(or a group) is also their weakness. Hence we need to be a body. We all bring different skills to the table. I also believe that we are “too nice”. There is nothing sanitary about the work that faces us.
3% fought the brits…and 3% will stand and fight the communists here….be of great cheer, as you stand with the 3% that matter.
Thank you RM for your service. Just lost a dear friend and great Patriot, who was a Marine sniper in Vietnam, and was Special Forces on the Mayaguez incident. Was recognized by President Ford. I miss him so!
It should not have to be Trump. Yes, he was the candidate from whom the votes and the election were stolen.
But it’s from the people. That was MY vote. Your vote. The peoples’ votes.
And it’s the country which is dying.
It should not have to be Trump. He’s one person. Just like you. Just like me.
I think a big part of the problem is that PDJT has demonstrated the hackneyed chess metaphor for so long that we’ve all come to rely on his judgement as to actions. We know he won’t send us down a trail with a deadfall waiting. He sees things long before most people do, and plans 3 or 4 work-arounds for when it arrives. I certainly don’t have that ability, but I trust his. Now we’re paralyzed without his guidance.
I think he’ll pop back up either this week or next, and I’ll bet he’s loaded for bear when he does! Faith!!!
Here’s another example of gubt waste & intimidation, by the same illegitimates in the White House now.

One of my favorite Secret Service visits ever.
That was awesome! Where can I get me three of those seats? And does he have an updated version with 46? Asking for a friend ?
That was a hoot – love Sabo – I have the signed PDJT in the meditation squat with him flipping the bird – looks fabulous in a nice black wooden frame!
I got his “Rogue Won” play on Star Wars poster. Hanging in my front room. Sabo pretty cool.
Thanks for posting!
I’m going to hunt that guy down and purchase a toilet seat from him!
Serious!
There are also the Stockholm syndrome, and “The Third Wave” experiment that should also be noted. These go hand in hand with what the MSM has turned itself into: The American Inquisition. The TIME article about the election fix from the other day is also a good lesson on how people can be easily manipulated.
Sorry folks, and not to be a downer, but there is never going back to what was normal. The repubs arent going to come back and win congress and right the wrongs. If you think that, you have been sleeping over the last 30 or so years. What we can do is stand up for the Truth and what is righteous in the eyes of the Lord.
Stand up at a school board meeting and question the curriculum. Stand up at a city council meeting and question policy. Stand up in a letter to the editor asking the uncomfortable questions, and pointing out wrongs like abortion. Youre not alone here as there are many people who think the same as you do.
This is spiritual warfare that only Jesus Christ can defeat. Put on the whole armor of God, and pray for guidance and discernment as you go forward….rest on the Lord for comfort in times of stress. Take up the great commission, and spread the good news about Jesus!
let us reflect on the stages of a revolution. Let this allow you to comprehend the actions and the thresholds that must be accomplished. Once that you are honest about your own duty and responsibility, understand these things are unlikely to be accomplished in a timeline that YOU CAN CONTROL. But directly you can move that needle and make the movement forward toward that desired state. And understand what is involved. Understanding with clear eyes, that history is a very solid appraisal about the nature of revolution. It only looks successful and easy after it is accomplished. Allow me to list the stages of ANY revolution that has occurred at any time, all the time, throughout human history (I will annotate key points in parenthesis):
Stage 1 – “normal” – the person of state is in power, unchallenged. (we have not seen normal for a very long time, so I will not bother to attempt to put a date or timeline on when this stage actually existed)
Stage 2 – Criticism of existing regime – intellectuals examine flaws and corruption and write and speak openly criticisms. (we are PAST THIS stage right now….There is sufficient non trivial intellectual authorities who have voiced repeated grievances about the nature of a corrupt central government. These grievances are well known and established. They continue to be voiced in spite and especially because of the censorship efforts)
Stage 3 – WIDESPREAD DISSATISFACTION – Many people are not only aware but JOIN in the dissatisfaction with the state. A LARGE part of the population JOINS in. (arguably, we are right now somewhere between stage 2, and stage 3. We are at a place where many ARE dissatisfied, but have not totally JOINED IN…It is a matter of not if, but when that tipping point happens. I believe it will happen within 3 years from this moment. But I am terrible at making predictions with these matters as they all present themselves in ways that cannot be fully predicted down to a specific timeline, but only to recognize that key signals are occurring that will ultimately lead to this stage being fulfilled.)
Stage 4 – Transfer of Power – Those who supported the revolution ARE SUCCESSFUL at transfer the balance of power in their favor and thus reforms and real changes begin. (we are not even close to this…in fact, in many ways, the adversary has exceedingly demonstrated superior actions that have made this stage even more remote and unpleasant. Do not let this discourage you! This is how all revolutions play out! Keep this in mind.)
Stage 5 – War between the revolutionary regime and the old guard. (again, we are not even close to this stage….but in order to maintain power a war is in fact inevitable. It is inevitable because power is never transfer peacefully in a revolution. Conflicts over the kinds of power involved, always create kinetic conflict, bloodshed, and death. These are the facts. Understand this. Do not let this discourage you. The alternative is to simply risk death under the boot of jackals who have demonstrated every single intent to make you their peon or worse! So you have to understand what it takes to maintain power. God will not abandon you if your cause is correct. Make sure it is correct and it is pleasing to God. This is the most important aspect of “winning a war”…makes no sense to lose the soul in the process!)
Stage 6 – Reign of Terror. The winner of a revolution will always act brutally toward the defeated adversary. Always. This is the nature of revolutionary war. It is not a pleasant stage. In many ways, this is the stage that actually determines legitimacy of the winner of a revolution. Too much brutality and moral authority is lost and never recovered. Too much mercy and the enemy has no fear to rise up again and attempt insurrection. Traitors ON BOTH SIDES will be subjects of the most cruel persecutions for their seditious actions. Understand this clearly…those NOT aligned to the new revolutionary cause who act against it, will be targets of very unfavorable action. And likewise, anarchists will be delt with swiftly with little mercy. Former regime leadership will be targeted and tried with street justice and made examples of. And this will continue even in formal court proceedings. Massive wealth transfer will occur. Economic stability will hard to achieve during this period of time. (again, we are not even close to this stage…but understand this WILL happen in a revolutionary war)
Stage 7 – Thermidorian Reaction – this is a post revolutionary war period that ends the “fever of revolution”. This is also the most delicate period of all stages. Thrust onto the stage will often be a strong leader who can and does bring the country back to stability and on a path for normalcy. But also, history has proven many times, this leader can be corrupt and quite nefarious and can re-create the same conditions that the revolution fought to defeat. This is a time, when many forces will gather to seat at this power and many small political and mini wars are likely to select the one. (again, we are not even close to this stage, but this is how it “ends”…
Why is this important?
Because this is what history teaches us. This is how you change a corrupt state. It is called a revolution.
Start using the words…make yourself aware of the entire concept of how it is performed.
revolution!
God Bless America
Short video at this link. IMO, the guy is right. There are 400,000 Republican precinct chairs. 200,000 are unoccupied. That is a lot of opportunity, especially in the land of low turnout.
“How to Take Back the GOP”
https://pandemic.warroom.org/2021/02/06/how-to-take-back-the-gop/
The base of GOP leadership, the precinct and county leaders, will back winners. We should not throw away this valuable resource because the ones at the top are corrupt. Let’s remove the 10,000 corrupt leaders and let the 79,990,000 voters with the 400,000 local leaders move in.
EXACTLY! Think globally, act locally.
I don’t want to take back the GOP. I want the patriot party.
I’m rather partial to No. 6 as the American version of it will be unlike anything seen in human history. The pent-up forces of anger, betrayal vengeance will be more terrible than anything the elites could ever imagine.
I would like to see their faces when justice finally comes.
Thank you very much for listing the historically consistent Stages of Revolution b/c we need to know them.
Just a few comments:
1. Stage 1: at least in the US, I don’t believe we have ever had “normal.” Even Jefferson & Adams were ridiculously viscious political enemies, not dissimilar from today’s visciousness. Dictatorships ,ie., communist china, are the types of govt that CAN achieve this type of “normalcy.” Stalin was a master of it.
2. Criticism of Existing Regime. No criticism permitted against this leftist regime BUT only criticism of PDT and his admin. So yes, we are past the right to critisize the ruling establishment. We r not permitted to challenge the … govt/political class … narrative. It is suppressed, effectively using multiple means, media, education, employers, even via govt force and leftist vigilantes, ie., BLM ANTIFA.
We CAN, however, still critisize the govt/regime here in our CONFINED
spaces but ultimately we will be forbidden this realm too. Most likely the regime permits our confined spaces to collect info on WHO we are… and probably to know what we think and may be planning.
3. Widespread dissatisfaction. That exists on both sides. There WAS widespread dissatisfaction when Trump was POTUS. There IS widespread dissatisfaction now too. Its just us this time. We do not YET know the degree of actual dissatisfaction b/c so many DO fear revealing their true views… mostly bc they don’t and the time and energy to take this on… and have not suffered enough … pain yet. But i don’t want to HAVE to get to that level of pain.
THE problem is that the MEDIA really is “fake news.” The do not REPORT the news; they MANUFACTURE it.
The media have become the KING MAKERS.
PDT accomplished great things for the USA and our citizens. BOTH home and abroad his administration was a HUGE success… but the media MADE him into a failure.
IF the media had JUST reported the news and TRUTH … honestly, Trump would have had 80%+ approval ratings bc he really did earn them.
The media CAN, and they DO… make a poor president (obama) into a great president and messiah… a great president (trump) into the worst potus in US history. Its STUNNING the power the media had. Its also exceptionally dangerous…. because …
OUR MEDIA IS A DICTATOR itself.
Over the past 4+ years, the media successfully manipulated, brainwashed the MINDS of millions of Americans, at least/almost half the country to believe the OPPOSITE OF THE TRUTH about President Trump and his magnificent service as our POTUS.
THAT… reality– that the MEDIA is THE KING MAKER– via deliberate lies and manipulation is extremely dangerous.
We believe in a free press… and our media IS FREE. Its just controlled, run by ARE free corrupt, even evil, people implementing an ANTI- American, ANTI-liberty agenda AGAINST the American people. They are ALL a propaganda machine for truly anti-american objectives. And, they ARE complicit conspirators in the overthrow of the real elected US govt (Trump) and the COTUS.
4. Transfer of power– actually the REVOLUTIONARIES…. ARE the LEFT/DEMS/rinos. It is THEY who seek to FUNDAMENTALLY change WHO we are, and have always been, as a nation and democratic Republic.
The COTUS & Bill of Rights… are amazingly… practically PERFECT documents, so perfect that one would have to conclude they were divinely inspired, EVEN though by imperfect men…. which is also WHO wrote the Bible too– imperfect humans. God does work through us … imperfect humans.
And we Americans have not always APPLIED the COTUS honestly& faithfully, ie., slavery & jim crow are the most profound examples of American humans… NOT following the clear meaning if the Constitution. OBVIOUSLY, if ALL men are created EQUAL, SCOTUS cannot say… except SOME men who are only 3/5 of a person which they did in Dred Scot.
But, the COTUS itself…. is pretty near perfect and it was written almost 250 years ago. We just need to follow the principles FAITHFULLY.
Okay… so not just a few comments… and I am not even done. Sorry. ?
Just trying to think through your list of ‘stages of revolution” and see if i can sort of apply them to where we are now.
Stage 5– actual CW and armed conflict on our own soil— brother against brother, mother against daughter, father against son. Even politically divided spouses will not fair well.
Don’t want this to ever occur and HOPE we can do it, still, the peaceful… “rule of law” way + the MLK Jr. “Freedom march” way.
Stage 6– the Reign of terror didn’t really happen in the US… after the Union defeated the Confederacy. It was quite civil. No Confederate, was executed for treason… not Jeff Davis, not Robert E. Lee.
What did occur, justifiably, is that the southern plantation owners were wiped out totally, at least 95%++. Those that survived the war struggled the rest of their lives, and many/most in various degrees of poverty. Some did go north to built new lives and some made a success of it. And future generations of pre-civil war plantation owners never really attained much more than middle class status either. Probably some b/c of their own personal IQ and talents.
The DIFFERENCE between the CW in 1861 and any Revolutionary War or CW war today is that the battle TODAY… IS between actual leftists/communists and totalitarians vs we who will fight to PRESERVE America as we were designed, to preserve the COTUS… so….
You are right, Regi, THIS CW/Revolutionary war IF it occurs on our soil AND WE LOSE… will result in a Reign of Terror as you describe. IF WE WIN, we will not impose any Reign of Terror bc the whole point of OUR fight IS to preserve and restore the COTUS and Rule of Law.
Stage 7 — not sure HOW it would work if WE WON the war. Hoping our brainwashed fellow Americans would not continue to fight. IF THEY WIN, we probably will continue to fight as best we can, generation after generation. Maybe not… bc the generations born AFTER we lose the war … will be easily controlled just as all enslaved subjects of Communist regimes are controlled, certainly for decades.
As I read through your list, I was stuck on number 6. In my eyes we are there now.
They are doing exactly what you have outlined. The Coup has been completed and they actively targeting us all.
So. If we are to have a chance, now is the time.
Louie Gohmert likes to quote a preacher who talked about a man who stood outside leaning on a shovel while he prayed for God to make a hole in the dirt.
That was supposed to be a reply to jus wundrin.
Its called faith, Sherri, something lacking in our country. You can wait on Louie while clutching pearl strings, or you can get involved on the local level. One of the first acts you should do is get your kids, or grand kids OUT of the evil govt. school system and home school them.
Or perhaps you’re afraid of the giants that SD listed above?
My point, and Louie’s too, is that you don’t excuse yourself by saying that God is in control and walking away. Joshua and David would agree that God is in control. They also agreed to do the hard work God laid before them.
BTW, my daughter spent only a few years in the public school system. My grandkids live in another country now. They have been on lockdown and have studied at home since August. My teenage granddaughter has taken my advice to follow a math and physics path so that she learns orderly, logical thinking. The other 2 grandkids are 4 and 7 y/o boys. They have been disenrolled. Their father’s work at the university (including pay and health benefits for the family) has been suspended. He has been working with the boys and innovating a curriculum on the fly that integrates time outside and a hands-on problem solving approach. They’ll be just fine.
My daughter’s cousins never darkened the door of the public schools. Neither have their children. The nephew’s kids attend the same small church school where he went. The niece’s only child is in a nondenominational hybrid homeschooling situation. His grandmother, my sister-in-law, devotes herself to his education.
We need Andrew.
YOU are Andrew 😉
We are all Andrew.
I guess we should be thankful, the people like the BLM and Antifa are very bad at being insurgents.
So what is an insurgent. It is someone or some organization that will eventually succeed in undermining the function of its target, more importantly it’s a method of slowing the stronger force down. Truck drivers just can’t manage to deliver food to headquarters in a timely manner. Gas tanks were always getting dirty. The day time belonged to us, but the night belonged to them.
In an article some time ago, Sundance said to hit the politicians in the language they understand:
Money – Do NOT give them a cent
and
Power – Do NOT vote for them….even if the alterative is terrible.
Do not give them a thing.
But to speak in their language requires more, in my opinion. These politicians lie, cheat, steal, encourage violence, excuse riots. They do NOT care about your safety. They willfully destroy people like Gen Flynn and Justice Kavanaugh. They destroy the economy, jobs, society – anything for power. So, they encourage shootings (Scalise) and, allegedly, murder (Seth Rich and others). They outsource censorship and violence to ‘commercial terrorists’ (eg, Delta, Facebook, Bed Bath Beyond) and to BLM/Antifa. These politicians (and certain business leaders) are the evil masterminds behind it all. As we’ve experienced, they are ruthless and getting worse.
In my opinion, it would be no surprise if ‘cells’ of patriots with ‘a specific set of skills’ began to covertly target anybody and anything that would affect these evil politicians and business leaders – to speak the only ‘language’ they understand. Something that affects them personally. Only then will evil become restrained. IMO, we need good people to do bad things in a covert way that will affect bad people. In the battle against evil, when they go low, we have to go lower. That is the language the evil understand – anything less and we’re naively letting ourselves lose. Some will not have those ‘certain set of skills’, but will support those that do.
That’s my opinion of what some may choose to do, now they are being pushed, squeezed and censored into oblivion. I’d hope the evil people doing the pushing realize the situation they’re creating and stop. I’m sure they know – they just don’t care.
After 145 Republican congress critters voted to keep the treacherous Liz Cheney in the No. 3 House leadership position, it was then that I knew the Republican Party could not be reformed. Politics as usual will no longer work, neither will attempts at reforming a political party that cannot–and WILL not–be reformed.
The events at the Capitol dont bother me in the least.
Nor does the politicians and media condemning it.
It’s gonna be some kind of weird ineffectual resistance that finds approval from those folks.
If we ever lose our desire for the approval of our enemies we might just have a chance.
Our enemies are well trained, and battle hardened. They will fight.
Will we?
So if I visit a federal prison, I will see this:
If I visit our nation’s capital, I encounter this:
And we are expected to NOT visit Washington, cause its an exclusive club and we aint in it…go figure 😛
I figure “WE” are at least 50% of the way there.
True, we never got our promised perp walks, or trials, guilty pleas or sentences,….
But we got the worst criminals behind a razor wire topped fence!
So, like 1000 buerocrats at the bottom of the ocean,….its a good start.
All that is required now is for the underground tunnels to be ‘inaccessble’ to those who would require access during uncertain times.
We don’t even have any statesmen inside those walls who will come out and tear those fences down.
Reagan accomplished more with Gorbachev.
We don’t even have any Congressmen who are brave enough to disobey Queen Polident and TAKE OFF THE DAMN MASKS OF SUBMISSION.
Queen Polident is probably more appropriate than Miss Lube Queen.
Yep, there isn’t one statesman in the entire US CONgres, which is actually appalling. It is full of CONmen and CONwomen who have complete contempt for We The People. I believe that it is truly impossible to reform the R wing of the uniparty…it must become the Whig party and disappear. It will take a few brave souls already elected to leave the party and join a new party.
DC wall is there to keep the inmates in the asylum.
YES! and Fireworks, We love Fireworks!
the blood of tyrants … the only real food of the tree of liberty …
The Tree is impatiently thirsty.
IMHO, Patriots are not “courageous”,…what I mean to say is courage has NOTHING to do with it.
You THINK, and FEEL that inaction will MAYBE enable you to hold on to all you hold dear; wealth, property, job, lifestyle, family, and liberties.
BUT, action (you THINK and FEEL) will LIKELY lead to LOSS, of some or all you hold dear.
This is the default, passive position.
The Patriot moment, is when you have the realisation that flips things 180 degrees;
INACTION guarantees that you WILL lose ALL those things you hold dear. Therefore, of coarse you have NOTHING to lose by ACTION, which MAY actually enable you to “hold on to”, or recovery those things most prescious to you.
Have you, reader truly embraced that inaction will GUARANTEE that EVERYTHING you cherish will be taken from you,…or are you still HOPING that if you keep your head down, and don’t act, that you can retain your liberties?
Have you crossed the rubicon, from patriotic citisen, to PATRIOT?
Amen
Very good comment.
As I have often said–courage comes from the realization that you have no alternatives.
There are some, who, if they act, will not only cause themselves horrible treatment, this can be accounted for, but that others will face certain death, yes, absolute death, if any actions are taken, until such time as the impetus, i.e., the cessation of life occurs naturally, the freedom to act is inhibited.
Put another way, disabled dependents press the need for restraint until such time as they are no longer dependents.
I don’t think the White House is the centre of Government any more, I think it is a fortress, run by the Military. At the moment there is no Civilian Government.
Demoralization is the true low-point, the deepest level of passive despair. I see it in friends and relatives.
“Yes,” they say, acknowledging everything we see, “but nothing will ever be done… no one is going to do anything about it, no one can do anything…”
The other side rubs their cheap victories in our faces. The more absurd the better because the absurdity of it is utterly demoralizing to honest people. Demoralization destroys hope at its foundation; deadens optimism. I bet everyone on this site knows several people who see the game, but are entirely demoralized. I don’t want to be demoralized about demoralization, but TBH, I have not figured out how to help others overcome it. I welcome any ideas on this.
I think that we’re lacking action items and a cohesive agenda/movement that we can rally around. People who’ve never been politically active before don’t know how to do these things. They need instructions like:
1.) Call your local, state, and national representatives at least once a month to support or oppose a particular issue (this is an easy entry point, IMHO). If people are brave enough and their rep’s offices allow visitors, visit your local representatives’ offices to speak with them about an issue. If you can bring a group, even better.
2.) Write an op-ed if you have excellent writing skills or if you have a unique background or qualifications (can be experience living under an authoritarian regime, for instance).
3.) Post on social media — even a repost of an articulate message helps us all.
4.) Go to meetings — city, county, agency (like the CPUC or various task forces or committee groups), or even locally active political groups…and sign up to speak about an issue. If you don’t feel confident enough to speak, support another person who speaks intelligently about the subject. It’s always good to have a sizable support group for speakers who support your side of an issue.
4.) Attend demonstrations and banner drops, etc. Do whatever you can to get the word out.
5.) Support political candidates who support your cause. Help make phone calls for them or do data entry, if you’re not confident enough to make calls or go door-knocking.
6.) Support groups that support or oppose the issues that most concern you.Donate money and/or time to the organization, and help spread the word about the organization to family, friends, neighbors, etc.
Ultimately, many people will only be comfortable with one or two of these actions, but every little bit helps the larger cause. Too many people are unable to do this kind of work without having someone else guide them, but once they get involved, they can find new ways to support the cause after they become more knowledgeable about the topic and people involved.
Demoralization is a psychological state, an existential hole in the ground. The opposite of demoralization is probably spunk. Demoralization is a major goal of propagandists because they know that once they have demoralized their enemy, they have as good as defeated them. Covid was used to wage massive demoralization against USA. The obviousness of election fraud and the obvious fraudulent denials of it actually serve to demoralize more than a legitimate loss.
I am no fan of AOC but she does have spunk. That’s what we need more of: the spunky ability to say FU, to resist temperamentally. I agree with your suggestions but they require leadership with a clear plan of action. Lindell may be able to provide that. He’s on a roll now and does have the FU too factor.
Absolutely nails it!
Your comment should be read and spread by everyone who really wants to DO something other than sitting in front of a screen and complaining about our current situation.
Our local town and county elected leaders are way more sensitive to public opinion than the ones in DC.
They are our neighbors after all and have to live with whatever mess they create.
the instructions will come naturally, from the cause of pain.
we are not there yet.
this is the ONLY way that successful revolutions happen.
the pain must be unbearable.
humans are at the most basic, an economic animal even if they do not understand the language of the science of it.
opportunity cost meets…why is my life so miserable?
the latter controls the heart AND the mind.
the human doesn’t need to understand why they need to make the decision…it comes natural from the pain of unbearable consequence to take no actions at all. (hat tip to dutchman who elaborates this in more precision above)
God Bless America
Well said. I would also add developing short, truthful, but to the heart of the matter talking points to answer questions and support your position.
I was accused of trying to censor material that was, in my opinion, too racy for kids. I told the accusers to read the material and draw their own conclusions. That was it.
Short, to the point, and they never asked me about it again.
–try some daily doses of Scott Kesterson’s podcasts at BARDSFM—–he posts 6 times a day—-gives all of us doses of Faith, optimism, history, his keen insights, from his military experience, incredible personal faith….etc. (Went from 50,000 subscribers to 180,000 in a week —- now approaching over2 million downloads, by Patriots all over the world.
Why? imho, because there is indeed a “God-shaped hole in our soul”—-that only God can fill. People / we are hungry, searching, want truth.
Listening to BARDSFM podcasts we are fed. Great food for the soul in this time of bewilderment and confusion. Where do we turn? whom do we trust? God is calling—has answers—-and is using Scott powerfully.
God bless! L.
I’m there. Just what is a 73 year old widow supposed to do? I’ve educated my children and grands and they’re all common sense Americans. I’m stymied.
School board, tow board, county board, election board.
Optimism is a virtue, benefits self and others.
The problem is so clear and so painful that nobody wants to acknowledge it let alone accept it, myself included.
We need a LEADER. Like the man who inspired all those people in the picture, and millions of others.
The man who singlehandedly fought the entire world to save our Country.
The man who lost over two billion dollars of his personal fortune fighting the Spawn of Satan that now runs our fake government.
We all know who that man is- our President Trump. What we don’t know is what, if anything more he plans to do and sacrifice for our Republic.
Every army needs a leader and surveying the field, our President Trump is the only one I see who fits that description. Just read the history books to see what I mean.
Oh yes, we can all do our part and become guerilla warriors, but how is that working out so far?
I am praying once again for Divine Intervention and our President, that he will once again be willing to come back to the field and take command.
Right now that is in God’s hands.
I truly and faithfully believe that Trump will soon reemerge as our leader of ‘Free America’. He simply has invested so much personally into what he has believed for decades about America’s role and responsibility to every citizen. We must be certain to be all that he expects of us as we battle on to achieve our joint goals.
Bud- I hope you are right. Everything depends on it.
I live in East Texas.

?
What’s on your mind?
What the deadheads in government want is for us to whimper away, en masse, because deep down they believe Jonathan Gruber that Americans are too stupid. They believe they are the overlords.
Where are the rallies, the songs, the daily acts of resistance? Post it notes and currency claiming Trump won? The dear leaders are banking on the fact that at some point, people will return to their daily lives and forget.
Each of us knows what we are capable of contributing to this resistance in small subtle ways or larger splashes of recognition. We are Andrew Breitbart. We are Sabo. The first step is always the unknown.
Jonathan Gruber was wrong. The American people aren’t too stupid to understand. We live with the effects of bad public policy day in and day out.
The 17th amendment is the biggest part of the problem here and the left knew that when they got the amendment. Now the speed of the left is an expression of their perceived weakness. Our constitution is far more durable than it appears on the surface. It is also patient. The 10th amendment has yet to be applied. Our freedom and liberty can be defended by states refusing to abide in tyranny. The states can and will reject the insanity out of Washington. I know the results of this past election but cannot even say the words on sites any more. That does not change the understanding of 80 million of us and the LIberal/progressive/demorat/left/confederates (LPDLC) know the truth too. It can be seen in their actions. Like a car jacker looking in the rearview mirror they throw up barricades around the capitol wit razor wire, attack Trump like a 3rd world dictator and in so doing that attack 80 million of us. It is easy and just to have concerns but the republic will be fine, it is designed to discover and resist evil and evil is here now not only politics.
“Silence in the face of evil, is itself evil.
God will not hold us guiltless.
Not to speak is to speak.
Not to act is to act.”

STATEMENT ON ILLEGITIMATE
IMPEACHMENT AND JANUARY 6TH
By Ali Alexander
Founder, Stop the Steal Movement
President Donald J. Trump is being wrongly accused of incitement and insurrection.
Let me say in no uncertain terms:
Stop the Steal has proof President Trump did not incite an insurrection.

Whenever I see the picture of the giant city with peasants living on the other side of the river,..
I keep thinking – I’d rather be one of the peasants than participate in their society.
No worries Baby El, I’m pretty sure we are the Deplorable peasants!
Look carefully at that picture.
That city is a prison. The people on the outside have freedom.
It’s called “normalcy bias”
Stockholm Syndrome, Pavlov’s Dogs
Very few will admit to it, but they know its true. It takes pain to gain, and few want to suffer if they think they are few. We need the MANY to go through agony.
If you don’t …
George Orwell — ‘If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—for ever.’
We are there already.
I don’t disagree with you Sundance, but I think another reason we have become passive is because this Republic was set up as a Representative Republic just so that the average citizen could live their lives and do their jobs, raise their kids without having to spend all kinds of time in politics or political activism….so that we could make our voices heard through voting our reps in and out. But we feel hopeless now that it has been shown that this important power has been usurped. Was it not enough that we came out in droves to support Trump and to vote for him and others whom we support in fed and local govt.?? No, it is no longer enough. And that is what sucks!
I think your description is the “popular” explanation wrt why a republic was selected.
but it was certainly NOT for the sole purpose of allowing people some escape from the process so they could “live their lives”..
no sir.
the ENTIRE principle behind the republic was a direct recognition that citizens must be actively involved in the ways of the government…directly represented. A body of said representatives AND the recognition of sovereign states.
the founders having experienced tyranny from a central concentrated FOREIGN power understood well that the natural rights of men and women would always be served and protected best by ensuring that the central concentrated power could be limited to two key basis:
a. that it be represented (truly represented) by people whom the people would select.
b. that each state would ultimately be the check and balance on limiting the power of the central state.
the founders were not in favor of allowing a massive build up of uncontrolled power in a central state. It was counter to every single experience and wisdom. What they did understand is that the best chance that a nation rules with fair laws and honesty and integrity would have to be treated often by the people who had the power of each state…sovereign and unique each.
what we are NOW, is a complete abomination of what that architecture was originally designed to build.
fortunately, as with the early Americans, we are to discover yet again..the power..the true power is with the people…as it has always been…as it will always be.
we establish our destinies…it’s that simple.
this is the natural power and rights we gain from GOD..and GOD ALONE.
Excellent synopsis of dots leading up to where we are now…citizens have to individually find their own resistance strategies.. what they are willing to do.. by example others will follow…it’s called “leading by example “.. it worked for Trump for four years..????
The CCP does not want our people. Especially most of our 50 years and younger with their lack of principles, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. In a word, they are lazy. CCP wants our land, resources, and infrastructure, not our perpetual weak-minded students, teachers, bureaucrats and lawyers.
As a nation, we have not suffered in many years. There are no consequences for our actions. If you don’t want to work the government will take care of you. Who can be upset with a government that guarantees you $15/hour minimum wage, free housing and free food? Oh, if you are an employer, too bad as you are taxed and regulated to death.
Things have to get worse, before the nation realizes we’re frogs in a boiling pot.
The obvious parallel is the battle of Jericho. It begins with a commitment to and a faith in God. You may not want to hear it, but we need a revival. Start first in your family and your community.
Yes, trumpets were the next step. Ever day the people of Jericho heard the trumpets. Our voices must be louder every day in every venue. Again, start local. Heck, my high schooler has become quite active and effective at pushing back on indoctrination in his school. I couldn’t be more proud. Raise the next generation to resist by educating them and equipping them with crucial knowledge that the left has been destroying.
After the walls fell the Israelites stormed the city and burned it to the ground. In the same way the corrupt institutions must be burned to the ground. The bureaucratic evil that is so entrenched has to be destroyed, yet the constitution must be preserved. This is the hard part. I don’t pretend to know the answer by myself but I am willing to find answers with others. There is good within these institutions, we have to find them and work from the inside to stymie the communist advances. Become wolves in sheep’s clothing.
Seize every opportunity starting today.
Maybe I read the tone of this wrong Sundance but it seems to be saying we the people failed to stand up. This is not true. We voted en masse for the right guy. The one who was protecting our freedoms. When we saw how our vote was canceled we wrote, called and pushed our legislatures to fight this and they did! There were protests in all 50 states! PA legislature, AZ, GA etc had public hearings. The evidence was presented and not one case was heard because of “standing”. Seems to me the court was told to stand down FROM THE TOP. How could the PA legislature not have standing? If they sued beforehand they would have been told they weren’t harmed. Please let us know what more we can do other than red pilling people to be a pissed off mass like us? We tried going to the Capitol to redress congress which is our constitutional right and it was hijacked. I keep praying God puts backbone in the courts to remember our constitution and declare this election too fraudulent to stand. What could the good people of this country done differently? They were planning to walk over and just stand outside the Capitol until bad elements actually stormed the building.
Luna, the PA legislature is a bunch of weak RINO’s…the only one who was vocal and stood-up was Mastriano. The rest are useless…they are even going to vote to give illegal aliens a freakin driver’s license. And the PA State Supreme Court is THE MOST CORRUPT in the entire country.
Support and work with mastriano. He seemed to be a strong leader.
Thank you. We have not been passive. Neither has Pres Trump. Family members will not speak to us because we are standing with the truth, we are homeschooling our kids and giving up 2 salaries to do it, we voted in accordance with pro life values, we are praying every day, we are being targeted when we join a conservative online forum but we still do it.
I am sure America has not hit bottom yet. For addicts. It is when they have lost everything.
In the meantime, the State sponsored terrorism against us is just beginning to register. We are seeing a major bank lining up political prisoners by orders of the State.
Yet, there are states resisting. This is what happens when you rip the band-aud off the festering wound that has been covered for 100 years.
My trumpet has been and will continue to sound but going forward louder. I intend to educate anybody in my circle who will listen and just ask them to be aware of the changes that have been taking place and decide for themselves. Louder trumpets ahead.
The whole idea of “Western Civilization” is currently under attack.
A New York Times article about the latest attack on our roots detailed the efforts by Leftists to eliminate Latin and Ancient Greek and Classics/Western History in general. It is being led by a Princeton professor of Ancient History (whose European ancestry is minimal), who has the usual agenda of cleansing Classics of “whiteness” because Greece and Rome were male-dominant, women-oppressing, slave-holding, imperialist cultures which should never be lionized or praised.
As proof he points to “right-wing, white-supremacist extremists” who used Roman insignia in their demonstrations, etc.
Such idiocy goes back decades: e.g. the swastika can be found in ancient mosaics. It was seen as a symbol of meditation, a rotational image around a center. Later it was demonized as a “broken cross” and was therefore adopted by the Nazis for their pagan, racist mythology.
Ancient Greeks and Romans were not Nazis! That we need to say that shows how stooopid things have become!
The Western Tradition is important because it contains everything: freedom and oppression, democracy and dictatorship, revolution and repression, invention and the status quo, etc.
As I point out to my students, the Wright Brothers were not Chinese. Thomas Edison was not African. Christopher Columbus was not Polynesian. Magellan, Newton, Leibniz, Einstein, Feynman, Heisenberg, Picasso, Da Vinci, Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, Goethe, etc. etc. etc. were not American Indians or anything else but were of majority European descent.
That is a fact: for whatever reasons, it was The Western Tradition which created the modern, contemporary world, not the Chinese, not the Incas, etc. Were there items which The Western Tradition borrowed? Yes, e.g. the idea of zero in Mathematics came from India. Higher mathematics, however, e.g. Calculus came from Newton and Leibniz, along with other European mathematicians.
And so, thanks to The Western Tradition’s darker side, e.g. Nietzsche, Marx, Marcuse, etc. we see a suicidal attack on our entire civilization.
Because as another Western philosopher and historian pointed out, namely the German Hegel, every thesis (e.g. Freedom) has its antithesis (Slavery), and they will combat each other to form a synthesis, which itself will be a new thesis.
And so, even if the antithesis is destroyed utterly, it can always be resurrected later.
The struggle never ends!
I believe it was in one of Solzhenitsyn’s books – I can’t remember exactly – but the description was of people worshipping in their church. When the trains full of political prisoners went by, they sang louder in order to drown out the sound of the railroad tracks and the screams of the people inside the cars.
That’s where I see much of the church today, having embraced Marxism and Social Justice. I have a relative who lambasted me for being a Trump supporter after the “capitol siege” setup. She piously proclaimed that Christ is THE PRINCE OF PEACE. It was amazing to me that she so wanted calm, comfort, and delusion over the hard work that the Church has been called to. She is one of those singing louder. I pity her, but I must distance myself because people like that are not safe – they will self-righteously turn you in to “the authorities”.
The church *must* be the salt of the earth. The church *must* stand up and refuse, actively refuse, to participate in the apostasy. The church cannot continue to sit in their pews and sing about how much they love God without actually showing that they love Him and His holiness. When I say “the church”, I mean those of us who love God and are called according to His purposes – not a building with a cross on the top of it.
Kitty Genovese murder: The real story of the woman killed ‘in front of 38 witnesses’ in Queens in 1964https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/kitty-genovese-murder-real-story-woman-killed-front-38-witnesses-queens-1964-a7118876.html
See that picture? See the shining industrial city? That’s them. The elite political class and their willing blind stooges. Those people – most all of them can barely change a lightbulb let alone wire in a new receptacle- something I taught my 9 year old niece to do.Those schmucks cant do anything for themselves- they need serfs, those people living in the sewage pools to do everything for them. Remember the power you have-deny them any assistance. Isolate them,focus on them,deny them your skills- destroy them.Dont sell to them,dont provide any service to them,don’t patronize any businesses they have.They are the children of Satan.This is WAR.
/\ THIS /\
Consistently the most on target with your posts about what we should be doing and calling it what it is, war.
Amen
We, the Patriots, need to resist the illegitimate Biden Administration at every turn! Don’t you all remember how they resisted our true President Donald J. Trump at every turn. They put up blockades, law suits, fake stories, fake news media, etc. We need to fight fire with fire and do the same thing, but with truth, which is on our side! All Republican State Attorney Generals needs to file law suits against every EO that Biden has put out. Patriots need to speak up at every opportunity against the policies of this administration!!! Start Patriot groups in your area, meet, plan and delivery non violent, but loud resistance!!! This is our last stand!! Fight!!!!!
I can’t get to it now because I don’t subscribe but was able to copy all Biden’s EX Orders from an Epoch Times article. The orders are from 1/20-1/29. Maybe a subscriber can get to the article.
In my state (MO) we are planning on meeting with our State Attorney General to determine what he will do as well as offer our support and suggestions to oppose EOs that will hurt our state.
Whom to Fear-The Conclusion of the Whole Matter
“Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.”
“And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.”
(Ecclesiastes 12:13-14; Luke 12:4-5)
Just read a NYTimes article about how lawsuits are being used innovatively to stop conservative disinformation and conspiracy theories. It was very well written, and very, very frightening…
The totalitarians have implemented a wave of fear. We have seen anyone with an audience who speaks loud enough get crushed, Alinsky’d. Easy to name a few examples, Dobbs, Lindell, Greene as well as average citizens who are ‘Karened’, fired from companies. Companies are shut down CTH almost. Parler exterminated.
Average citizens risk their livelihoods and physical well being for challenging narratives (lies) or their attire (hats) or non-attire (no mask). Most people will lay low, keep their heads down rather than be out front to take the pain they have seen will be coming. This is the way all totalitarians dominate majorities who vigorously disagree. Sundance has pointed out one example in history, there are many more. It is a difficult challenge that we all face.
Maybe it’s about, “Give me liberty, or give me death.” People will not move against evil if they are scared of death and personal loss. This war is spiritual against the fallen, evil sons of God and their minions on earth. We are all going to physically die regardless of our desires. Yet as a believer we know that I Corinthians 15:55 applies: WHERE, O DEATH, IS YOUR VICTORY? WHERE, O DEATH, IS YOUR STING?” (NASB)
By being free from the threat of the chains of death, we are free to pursue our God-given rights and God-given mission on earth.
Rebel alliance. One must do something for the cause of Christ and We the People to be a member in good standing.
One idea that comes to mind is to revive the Trump parades & the Trump flotillas.
They sprang up everywhere across the nation. Happy, joyful people supporting their president.
You could hardly turn a corner without running into a caravan of patriots.
Instead of Trump-P***e banners, maybe “Trump, the real 46th president”, or
whatever slogan strikes your fancy.
They were always uplifting & heartening, something we could all use at the moment.
Yes! Parades and Flotillas! Joyous Patriotism in contrast to Gloom and Doom Totalitarianism.
I believe the new MAGA slogan — SAVE AMERICA! — will become increasingly powerful as more people see the nation sinking and their personal lives degraded . . . .
Everyone should watch this short video. We can all do something. RIGHT NOW. Go out, go to stores, but, BURN YOUR MASK FIRST. It’s a simple thing. But, it is POWERFUL. We aren’t here to “go along to get along”. We’re here to SHOW people the WAY out of TYRANNY. And, it starts with SHOWING YOUR FACE EVERYWHERE.
Impossible to co-exist with people who have nothing in common with you and, in fact, hate that you even exist. Not a lot of options for those of us on the other side of this equation. As this article points out, the danger is a lot of us think that we can co-exist with the ‘other side.’ Starting to see other voices like Tucker and Rush starting to allude to this problem. Action will have to be taken. Only question is when and how–
Awakened not Woke
Shaken not Stirred
how to explain?
if you have a waken your consciousness has been shaken.
if you woke, you have Ben gently stirred.
we haven been awakened, and we are aware not woke.
listen to Fake Woke and those trying to digest his words.
the revolution of consciousness is on!
I just had a thought….
Something I heard or read some years ago is that the County Sheriff is actually the highest ranked elected official in the County. Someone please feel free to correct me if I am mistaken.
So I googled my county sheriff’s office. It said this:
MISSION STATEMENT
The Mission of the _________ County Sheriff’s Office is to enhance the quality of life in our county by working in partnership with the community and in accordance with Constitutional Rights to enforce the laws, preserve the peace, reduce fear, and provide for a safe environment.
VALUES STATEMENT
To achieve the Mission of our office, we will diligently pursue:
Professionalism
We will maintain a moral and ethical standard that accepts nothing less than the highest level of integrity.
Caring
We will attend to the needs of the community while listening and acting with sincerity.
Teamwork
We will work as a team within the __________ County Sheriff’s Office and the community to enhance our services.
Fairness
We will treat others as we want to be treated.
Sounds good. Simple, and if true, the County Sheriff is our best friend. As I said, it is an elected office. I voted for our sheriff. I think it’s time to get to know him personally and ask him the following questions:
1.) How do you interpret the Constitution? Can it be changed simply by Executive Order, passing a law through Congress or a unanimous ruling by the Supreme Court?
2.) What is the source of “moral and ethical standard[s]?” Modern “moral and ethical standards” have changed these last few years, though we here all understand that the moral and ethical standards of our Lord Jesus Christ never change. They are eternal. He/His is the same yesterday, today and forever.
3.) Will you protect us if/when the Feds come in to arrest us for their perception of our violations of the constitution or other fake charges like domestic enemies of state/nation?
4.) Probably others of you can think of other questions.
I also read years ago that to defeat the statist controls put on the people at the highest level of government, we must appeal to the lesser magistrate, who in turn thwarts them. It is their sworn duty to protect us. It’s time we call on them to see if they be with us, or against us.
It would be nice if we had a coalition of concerned citizens who could form local groups; set up meetings, and invite the Sheriff to speak and respond to our questions and concerns. We have legitimate concerns, as the brief look at history reveals the road which we are well on our way.
We need to let him know that we must stop this tyranny now, before it gets any more of a stranglehold on our freedom and liberty.
Yes, the enemy within, is our worst enemy. And Sundance thanks for the Trumpet blowing, it;s time.
I think we are many of us waiting for a leader to unite behind. Is this passivity?
yes
Annie, we in Texas have the ability to own the Republican Party of Texas. I did see your comment that you were not interested in taking back the GOP. I am not either. I want to own the GOP and push out the Cheneys and Ryans and Romneys and McNoNames.
A third party would not be safe or viable as long as the RNC is used to divide the vote. A new party would have to compete against both the GOPe and Dimms. The math does not work at all.
It appears that the RNC is divided and on the ropes. It is a huge complex organization that is dependent on the grassroots level. So, go in at the grassroots and work in the elections. Go volunteer on the precinct or county level. Find a candidate where you live or where you don’t live and offer to help. Some of these campaigns can be exhausting.
LTC Allen West was in Georgia lending a hand in the senatorial runoff. He was not particularly impressed with the people who sat around and schmoozed instead of walking the blocks and knocking the doors. I think we can work with him. There is little reason to think that he would obstruct MAGA candidates.
The biggest two issues right now probably are redistricting and invoking some right thinking amongst the Republicans in the Texas legislature. The Republicans in Austin have the majority in both houses of the legislature but voted to continue power sharing of the chairs of the key committees.
Wouldn’t it be great if we in Texas could further MAGAfy the Republican Party of Texas to the point that the Bush cabal would break camp and head for greener pastures elsewhere?
The Bushies have George P. on deck to make a run for the White House via the governor’s mansion in the Great State of Texas. If we don’t make the Republican Party of Texas into a MAGA party, we will be complicit in furthering the Bushes. That is not good.
Everything about our government is illegitimate. When the president is illegitimate then every E.O., every appointment and every sentence that he utters is unlawful. We in fact do not have a lawful government at the present time but we are going along with the pretense that we do.
In order to fight against this regime that has been put in opposition to us, the citizens, we need to follow the example set by our founding fathers by formally declaring our separation from the illegitimate government and of our intention to return to a constitutional government. By force if necessary.
“Constitutional government” put us in this position, the willingness to let other humans have all the power and do our thinking for us.
No. The Constitution is the law and legal means of which every person is held to whether they claim they rewrote it or not.The United States Constitution is the base of every legal law in the USA. Any legislation that does not abide the Constitution is not legal and has no legal standing.
For any law to be legal and the law of the land it must abide by the U. S> Constitution. Any law that is in opposition to or repugnant to the U. S. Constitution is illegal and null and void. See “Supremacy Clause” (Article VI Section 2) and look up Maybury vs Madison.
Just because someone lies to me all day long does not make them a correct, just a habitual liar. Just because our schools taught us lies doesn’t mean we can not read the very basic and straight forward language of our Constitution, Declaration of Independence (which is very relevant today), and the history that brought us to the minds and beliefs behind the founding and what they knew to be the need when things were corrupted by those that are always willing to murder their neighbors for any reason to power.
Obama was illegitimate too. We still dont know where he was born
“When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”
Our course is clear. We followed it before when many blindly accepted tyranny. Now we must once again pick up the cause of freedom and do battle against the Evil One. His presence made itself felt because we lost our watchfulness.
