The first amendment prohibits congress from passing any laws that would inhibit free speech and the freedom of the press. However, in the era of advanced Marxism and Democrat fascism their inability to use laws to block speech is seen as a problem.
To solve the problem the U.S. congress is now asking cable news providers: Comcast, AT&T, Spectrum, Dish, Verizon, Cox and Altice to initiate a new system to block speech the DEMOCRAT FASCISTS do not agree with.
The same congressional committee members also sent the letter to Roku, Amazon, Apple, Google and Hulu, digital companies that distribute cable programming and raising the stakes if they do not comply. Thereby once again proving the case that Democrats are party of state controlled censorship.
(New York Times) […] In advance of the Wednesday hearing, called “Fanning the Flames: Disinformation and Extremism in the Media,” members of the House Energy and Commerce Committee sent a letter…
[…] “To our knowledge, the cable, satellite and over-the-top companies that disseminate these media outlets to American viewers have done nothing in response to the misinformation aired by these outlets,” two Democratic representatives from California, Anna G. Eshoo and Jerry McNerney, wrote in the letter, which was reviewed by The New York Times.
[…] The lawmakers’ letter asks the companies, “What steps did you take prior to, on, and following the November 3, 2020 elections and the January 6, 2021 attacks to monitor, respond to, and reduce the spread of disinformation, including encouragement or incitement of violence by channels your company disseminates to millions of Americans?”
“Are you planning to continue carrying Fox News, OANN, and Newsmax on your platform both now and beyond the renewal date?” the letter continues. “If so, why?” (read more)
Perhaps as things worsen people will begin to realize why CTH has been spending so much time and effort building-out an anti-fragile website where we can continue to present the unfiltered truth of events happening around our nation. It is an exhaustive effort to build an infrastructure that can continue to provide a place where honest discussion can take place and facts can be provided without fear of removal.
The Truth Has No Agenda…. Those who wish to control public speech carry an independent agenda. To justify their ideological desires to retain power, and, by extension ultimately control over the lives of others, these radical leftists need a justification. They are putting a massive amount of exhaustive energy into trying to remove speech that would stand against their totalitarian agenda.
We have watched it unfold for years; however the pace of their onslaught is seemingly exponential now.
Conduct yourselves accordingly…. and know that CTH will continue this fight even if we are reduced down to writing post-it notes on gas pumps. The Rebel Alliance will never concede liberty to the totalitarian state.
Live your best life, and pour sand into their machinery whenever possible.

more material for CPAC to take under consideration – or maybe The Heritage Foundation
The Heritage Foundation gave us the 3 new SCOTUS justices that just refused to hear the PA vote fraud case plus the green light for SDNY to politically persecute and legally prosecute President Trump via his tax returns.
No thank you.
Gorsuch dissented on PA.
He cannot appear to libertarian like Kavanaugh and Barrett. What happened to the originalists? Libertarian and progressives ideologies are even remotely originalist in thought.
Libertarian and progressive ideologies are not even remotely originalist in thought. FIFY
Who is it that really funds the Heritage Foundation? Where does the Heritage Foundation leadership come from? Do they have anything to do with the Committee of the 300, or the Free Masons?
Charlie Manson foundation?
China
The Heritage Foundation just brought Mike Pence on board too!
Don’t forget Heritage hired the P person and that is the extent of acknowledgement he will ever get from me.
Pence is at the Heritage Foundation now. Don’t count on them for anything. CPAC is also run by Republican elites. Don’t trust them either.
What you mean to say is feckless progressive and libertarian Republicans. Controlled opposition.
Will be interesting to see Trump’s speech to CPAC. Not like he is ever subtle.
During the 2016 election cycle I received materials from Heritage. In the past I’d always welcomed them. But in that particular mailing they made no bones about disliking/hating Trump and not trusting him with the presidency. Since then I ignore all their pleas for money.
Heritage showed their true colours.
and they aren’t red, white and blue . . . I think more like simply red with a dash of yellow
The Heritage Foundation hire traitor Mike Pence.
They need to know how to be feckless progressive and libertarian Republicans.
I hope everyone here let’s The Heritage Foundation know they disapproved of Pence
For your reading enjoyment. I thoroughly enjoyed sending the response to the email below.
After what he did to our President Trump, I would hang up on that disgrace or anyone that would hire him.

Fellow Conservative,
The other day, while walking from Heritage headquarters to my car, I glanced at my cell to see an incoming call from former Vice President Mike Pence. After the adrenaline and my heartbeat settled down a bit, I answered his call.
VP Pence went on to personally thank me for the warm welcome to him as Heritage’s new distinguished visiting fellow. He’s already been a friend to Heritage for 30+ years, when we inspired him to start a think-tank of his own in Indiana. Now that power has shifted in Washington in recent weeks, he’s eager to help Heritage maintain momentum on conservative policies from the past four years.
Fellow Conservative, what initiatives would you like to see from former Vice President Pence during his time with Heritage? What kind of policy wins should he focus on helping Heritage achieve? I hope to share a few of your ideas when I speak with him next.
Thanks for the input, and I hope you have a nice weekend.
Best,
Andrew
you’re an idiot, Andrew Magoo (I know, McIndoe) –
thank you for posting this, Jerry – pretty much tells us what we need to know about The Heritage Foundation –
creeps!
I mentioned The Heritage Foundation primarily because I was “suspicioning” them most especially since September 20, 2019 – they were referred to in an ad in the “Los Angeles Times” about “moving your business” to the Greater Bay Area – of China! The Heritage Foundation was quoted in the ad in their praise of the freedom of the Hong Kong economy
oh, and also the ad mentioned the US Chamber of Commerce, all the American companies that had already moved over there, enjoying all the benefits to their companies
The Heritage Foundation seemed to be pretty quiet after the crackdown on Hong Kongers from the Mainland – and that was already underway when this ad was placed –
now as pointed out by other here, with Pence on board, The Heritage Foundation has proven itself to be as worthless as the RNC
(I guess I should have put that “sarc” thing after my original comment)
This development (Congress cracking down on free speech – kinda like the CCP) should actually be the last straw for the anyone supporting the RNC because it is really thanks to the RNC that this is possible)

I think we need less Big Shots and more better neighbors.
Start thinking closer to home in trying to find a solution to these problems.
I’m stocking up on post it notes. As well as other staples.
Sugar works well in machinery too
So does large drop forged monkey wrenches.
This is the result of a couple of generations growing up without reading the classics.
Exactly
The boomers and their offspring.
Don’t paint with such a broad brush. I’m a boomer and I’ve read the classics and so have my children. Of course, I live in a free state. YMMV
OBG…the exceptions always end up proving the rule.
What have you accomplished q c m? Besides making a fool of yourself with ridiculously idiotic statements. How is bashing boomers helpful? If you want to rant about your mean daddy tell it to your psychiatrist. Folks here are looking for answers to real problems.
You are probably more the exception than the rule.
Can you list ‘the classics’ so I can reacquaint myself. I’m 50 with a SoCal public school education save 3 years (4-6) in Catholic School.
No disrespect or sarcasm meant. Seriously, I want to know so I can pass this list on and become familiar. Thank you
Number One is , The Bible , KJV.
If your into weighty tomes try , The Fall of The Roman Empire.
Work down from there.
Not everyone would agree all of these are “Classics” but a good place to start. At least for me…
The Bible
The Republic – Plato
The Republic – Cicero
Politics – Aristotle
Leviathan – Hobbes
On Liberty and Utilitarianism – John Stuart Mill
The Prince – Machiavelli
Treatise on Government – John Locke
Anything by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Thucycides
Shakespaere
Chaucer
J.R.R. Tolkien
C. S. Lewis
Ethics; Letters and Papers from Prison – Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Common Sense
The Federalist
Oliver Twist/Tale of Two Cities – Dickens
Jane Eyre – Bronte
Pride and Prejudice
Little Women
Basket of Flowers
Lord of The Flies
The Grapes of Wrath
Brave New World
Newer Books I highly Recommend
The Slight Edge
The Magic of Thinking Big
The Go Giver
To those, add George Orwell’s “1984”, “Animal Farm” and “Atlas Shrugged.”
Two weeks ago I re-read 1984 and Animal Farm, courtesy of the public library. I have my own copy of Atlas, and it’s thicker than a horse’s leg, as dad used to say! Took me about three months of bedtime reading to finish.
Agree with the suggestions by others here, with one more: try to buy or obtain an earlier printed version of any recommended classic, as recent reprints often will edit or reword things to make the tome more PC.
For everyone else: I’m now searching for and buying book classics for my own personal, physical library–no more Kindle books, etc. I fear the day is coming when Huckleberry Finn, Gone With The Wind, My Antonia, The Little House books by Laura Ingalls Wilder, etc, will no longer be available because they are deemed racist, homophobic, etc. These book classics MUST be preserved with their original content intact in private libraries–don’t count on libraries to do this!
We have a consignment antique mall, tons of old books, magazines and albums (records).
Could kick myself for not buying up all the children’s books (esp The Golden Books) about 10 years ago because they are all gone now (legally can’t sell them due to ink, can’t remember why). Still can get full sets of Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys, Little House on the Prarie, etc.
I live in a blue-slave state and have also read the classics.
Of course – I’m pretty old so I was able to read them a long time ago.
What a jerk! Is this the extent of your input? Blame the Boomers… get a new shtick. Why do you hate your parents? Ignorance on display for all to see. It appears you are an idiot sir.
Richard Hawkins: Agree. And also, ignorance of the world’s terrible experience with communism, fascism, dictatorship and totalitarianism in all its liberty-robbing and soul-crushing forms.
Not to mention too much time looking for the racism in mathematics!
The same generations that attended a propagandized education system that their parents, aka baby boomers, basically ignored because many were busy working two jobs and were tired and stressed for time, concerned about climbing the corporate ladder and accumulating material goods. Not everyone but a majority of us.
The 50s and 60s were the turning point of both society and education. Harsh opinion, I know but I watched it happen and let a lot slide myself when it came to educating kids and societal acceptance of ever increasing immoral and shocking subject matter in our entertainment and media worlds. We did let things go on that we shouldn’t have and now are paying the price, imo.
The generations coming into control of our country now were never taught our history, meaning or patriotism for America. They don’t know what we know. They spent hours everyday, weeks every year, learning America was not that great. Civics and government, American History and values were distorted and eliminated in may cases.
It happened right under our noses and we didn’t pay attention nor correct it. We are losing our country because we were asleep at the switch, distracted and apathetic, thinking life would-America would-go on as usual. Big F’ing mistake and it’s on us for the most part.
Once the boomers are gone, America as it was handed down Constitutionally to us, will be nothing but dust in the wind unless something drastic now happens to save it. Do we have the guts to do anything about this? I’m really not sure most of us do or even care. Not CTH members, of course, but the average American citizen. When the call comes, how many will actually answer?
The question is, regardless of generation, do you intend to cede your natural rights to less than 2% of the population in perpetuity hostile to the COTUS/BOR?
Or being taught to think logically classics or no classics.
…And becoming an auto-didact – one who knows how to teach oneself.
The skill of researching, studying, experimenting, and learning how to do something without instruction from someone else is something that seems never taught in “school.” But it’s been a personal ace in the hole for my whole life.
I owe it to an older brother who is a natural teacher and helped me figure out how to… figure things out.
Thank you for all you do to provide a place for truth Sundance – may God bless you and all of the CTH admins. Without Rush’s important voice (breaks my heart) the CTH becomes more important than ever before.
Homeschool your children. Short of your faith in God, that is the absolute highest priority. Doesn’t matter what you have to give up – can’t take that with you anyway. Do not hand your offspring over to the Marxist government to indoctrinate.
Uneducated and mal-educated generations are how we arrived here. It’s how they’re getting away with this. Most the Treepers are senior citizens: when y’all are gone, who will carry on? If you’re not willing to try and reach out to, connect with, and re-educate the Millennials of today – which, from all the vitriol here I’ve seen directed this direction, I’m guessing you’re not – then your only chance of having a hand in saving America for the future, is properly educating the children after the Millennials and Gen Z.
Don’t see how this comment is relative to the post? Simple, if you’re familiar with the younger generations. Antifa – anti-fascists – are opposed to the wrong side; they think the conservatives are the fascists – because the public “education” system has literally taught them the wrong definitions of words. I think that both conservatives and Antifa, were it possible to sit down and talk like civilized people, would be shocked in that many aims coincide: but the young ones have been taught that certain words mean the opposite of their actual definitions.
Yes, along those lines I’m halfway through Rod Dreher’s “The Benedict Option.” I started it after reading his “Live Not By Lies: A Manual for Christian Dissidents.”
We’re in “times such as these” that require our (to some degree) going underground, as both Patriots and the Faithful are in the early stages of persecution (at the hands of the CCP puppet Biden-Harris Junta).
Not all the Treepers are seniors. There are others, like myself, who went through the public education camps and fought the entire way. That being said it is more likely a personality trait that got me through that era.
That makes two of us!
And we need to study the history of our nation. And keep many books on it. Because along with the rest they will attempt to erase our history. I have a darn good library. I will treat it like gold
I agree and anything they plan on banning…Buy it before they do..
The movie/book Fahrenheit 451 comes to mind.
Pick up a copy of It Can’t Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis.
Hint: It’s happening.
Thrift stores and yard sales are a good place to buy a lot of hard to find books you might be looking for.
Online used book stores are an excellent place to look also.
My sons and daughters in law are always scouring these sites for books for the grandkiddies as well as our barn storage rooms where I boxed up and put away all of my boys old childhood books.
The Black Stallion, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Hans Brinker and the Silver Skates etc.
Mostly books for boys but many of my cherished oldies too.
Every time they come to visit they scoop them up and take them back home.
I have all of the books from my childhood that my parents bought for my brothers and myself hoping to enlighten and educate us, you know parents they always have high hopes for the kids.
A full set of Shakespeare, the works of Plato, Socrates, Euclid, Pythagora, John Locke and so many others.
Not that my brothers and I actually read them but we had no TV so we peeked a bit off and on and they came in handy when writing reports for the picky nuns at Catholic school.
It does seem as though bit by bit a lot of parents are beginning to understand that the education of their children is falling on them.
Kerry Gimbel, agreed. Hillsdale College’s online courses provide just that as well. I am going through their excellent Western Heritage course (all courses free, by the way) and learning so much.
How long before home schooling will be outlawed???
How did the US become a communist fascist state?
Slowly at first, then all at once.
Thats what Nikita Khrushschev vowed…in 1959…

Was that Nikita Pelosi, Nikita Schumer or Nikita Sanders?
It was Nikita Khrushchev, who was apparently one of their idols…..
Unfortunately one bite at a time
It started with Alfred Kinsey and the SCOTUS’ assault on the First Amendment in the same year.
Don’t give Dr. Spock a break. He started the breakdown of kids following the laws and rules established by parents. Maybe we should call him the Father of AntiFA.
It was Kinsey and those like himself that sought to socialize the neurotic behavior and its associated paraphilias/delusions of less than 2% of the population to the majority normal heterosexual population.
PTrump scared them enough that they had to throw in all their chips, probably faster and before they intended to. A much slower process would have made the people more accepting of the subtle changes as they came up, provided the Dems/left maintained control. Hillary lost a nd the gears of totalitarianism ground to a halt. They were in a rage and determined to take back control no matter what they had to do legally and illegally.
They ruthlessly did so and it worked to their great, malevolent glee. We have a very dark future ahead, but also a very grave present, to contend with. How we react will determine what happens to our kids and grandkids. Not looking too great right now.
It is darkest before the dawn.
It’s darker when the lights go out
It is always darkest before it goes pitch black. Takes a special skillset to fight in the dark. All this nonsense will devolve into complete chaos. It needs to happen. The people that now champion the change will never see it coming. Shooting fish in a barrel. It will be fun.
At some point, some old Veteran who might be dying of cancer or some other fatal disease, may say what the hell do I have to lose and start taking out some of these Communists. They all can’t hide forever in DC.
The Enlightenment is dead.
Welcome to the Dark Ages.
The totalitarian regime is taking preemptive steps to shut down any possible future of having a Trump media platform. That must absolutely terrify them.
This totalitarian regime absolutely terrifies me. How long before we become the next Venezuela?
Me too!
Like, a week? Yesterday? I mean, it isn’t some future thing. It is happening right now. Literally, right this very second.
3 months from the swearing in ceremony.
When we stop being terrified and start fighting back.
Fear is a real killer in so many ways.
You bring up a great point.
Seems they operate by heading off anything that may get in their way. Pelosi 9/11 commission style hearing for Jan 6, for example. We need to stop announcing our next moves, we are no longer living in a free America. Stealth actions needed. PTrump should just take action and stop announcing it, do it.
Congress: “Nice business you’ve got there. It’d be a shame if something happened to it.”
A wonderful quote from David Horowitz comes to mind: “Inside every Progressive is a Totalitarian screaming to get out.” Well, the screaming is subsiding, as the beast emerges.Totalitarian Screaming To Get Out
Rep. Sarah Jacobs (D-CA) is the grand-daughter of billionaire Irwin Jacobs, founder of Qualcomm. Irwin was the biggest private campaign donor for Hillary in 2016. He hosted 2 separate $37,000/plate luncheons for both Obama and Hillary since 2012 in his La Jolla Mansion overlooking La Jolla Shores. Sarah is pushing also for the “Truth” Commission. She wants an “official national narrative” of the 2020-21 events. She also is all about stamping out so-called “white privilege”. Typical Columbia grad. Funny that, according to local reports, she is dating failed Palestinian-Mexican democrat congress candidate (who was beat by Darryl Issa) Ammar Najjar, whose grandfather was the MASTERMIND of the Black September terror group which massacred the Israeli athletes at Munich. His dad was a bigwig in the PLO under Arafat. Sarah spent upwards of $9M of her own (her grandfather’s ) money on her campaign. She needs to be educated on the 1st Amendment pronto. The Government should never “own” the “truth”.
Why is it that those that really do have “white privilege” want to assert that Middle Class working stiff whites are the ones with white privilege. Sounds as though Sarah is the poster child for white privilege and SHE and Granddaddy should pony up their fortunes to the government to give us the REAL truth!
Good freakin’ question. I always think this myself.
Do not accept anything the RNC and senior Republicans will say on this. It will be 100% Kabuki and meaningless. Indeed, if some individual Republican were to do something that might have real consequence, that individual will be targeted as “not who we are”.
Naturally, the so called Libertarians (really Libertines who are only interested in drugs, sex, and open borders) will say private companies have the right to censor. But should any conservatives try to boycott or start alternatives, that would be communism.
The GOP will support this especially anything that shuts down conversation on the election steal, the Senate steal, Pence’s perfidy, the SC rulings and the pandemic scam. They have just as much to gain from this oppression. They never supported controls over social media and they support censorship as much as the Dems. Any outrage is fake.
The majority has the power of the economic boycott, not the progressive, moderate and libertarian population.
I don’t trust the GOP/RNC at all. I will not fund them and I will not vote for them anymore unless they are Trump supported candidates. Even then, I’m not at all convinced that my vote will matter one damn bit anymore.
Seriously though… that means that your internet provider will block you from accessing this site and any other like it.
How do we connect outside of the normal way?
Sundance had a most pithy quote, beyond the usual “life your best life,” and well worth echoing.
“Conduct yourselves accordingly…. and know that CTH will continue this fight even if we are reduced down to writing post-it notes on gas pumps. The Rebel Alliance was never concede liberty to the totalitarian state.
Live your best life, and pour sand into their machinery whenever possible.”
Just got off the phone with our “provider” ( I use the term loosely) about the fact that I have gotten no new incoming emails in my inbox for three weeks. You can see the little ticker at the bottom moving . . .”50% received, 75% received . . . Then N.O.T.H.I.N.G. I can send just fine. When I talked to the tech girl she said it was because I had 600 emails in my sent file that were blocking. I had trashed them the night before but it made no difference in receiving ability. How they ended up back in my sent file I don’t know. Even took the extra step of going to their website to retrieve my mail: still nothing there.
Here is how the tech explained it: “when your files have that much content anything that people send to you or whatever they reply to yours is bounced back. So that’s why there aren’t any.”
So . . . today I called three people on my email list and none of them EVER had emails to me bounce back to them. This provider is basically one of two available in my area. And the first had problems too. My retired Marine son who IS Mr. Tech says to just get a g-mail address. But isn’t that Google?? And Yahoo isn’t pure either, is it? Yahoo news site is quite far left most of the time. Hotmail?
Secure email: ProtonMail is free encrypted email.
I’m not a user but it’s recommended to me all the time.
I am a protonmail user – it’s a free service with a paid tier and it works wonderfully. Of course if someone you sent an email has it blocked by their service, or if someone sending you an email is
blocked by their provider, there is nothing protonmail can do. gmail absolutely blocks content of which it doesn’t approve.
I am also a protonmail user, but I have a paid account, the least expensive one. About a week ago, I sent an email, using my old Microsoft account, to one of my close relatives and recommended a book that I had just read. The next day I received an email with and advertisement using the name of the book that I had recommended. I thought, well, Microsoft is screening my email. So before that day was done I had gotten an account with protonmail and now I am migrating all my email traffic over to protonmail and every other day or so I download my email from the old services to protonmail. Soon, I will be able to just delete the other services from my computer. Protonmail has a VPN that I could use, but I already use one with my browser (Epic) and I do not know what would happen if I tried to use two different VPNs at the same time. They might conflict with each other. I also have a VPN available on my home network router, but I have not tried to use that one either. So far protonmail is working well for me.
Yes, Gmail is google.
Proton mail and vivaldi mail respect privacy. Proton mail also allows you to send encrypted mail and provides VPN service.
I am still on the fence about proton even though I have an account.
Worried it may be a honey pot.
I was thinking that.. Maybe we can find out what other Treepers live in our states so if this site goes or is blocked we can gather on our individual state branches till we find a way till all get back together.
ON Gab we have a private group called Treehouse friends. Maybe if other Treepers are on the other social media sites whatever MeWe or whatever they can form a group like that on those sites?
Holler at me if you’re in SC!
If this site is blocked, so too will Gab be blocked
Gab is looking good for now, yes. I am also on MeWe – have a small group of like minds who are refugeeing there from FakeBook.
It’s kind of like an online Mariel Boatlift these days…
China already has this system in place.
Here is a video from a good chap in Georgia that I found very useful.
ProtonMail, as already mentioned, is a good option for emails. They also have free VPN. It is limited, but should be enough for accessing sites like this one. You can upgrade to a paid version if you need to.
Makes sense to not use VPNs located in 5, 9 or 14 eyes countries. Goes back to my point about Norton and Express VPN.
Sheesh. Anybody have any good news about anything?
I met a blogger who sang the blues
And asked him for some happy news
But he just frowned and turned away
I went down to the sacred site
Where I’d heard about the Constitution years before
But the man there said that music would no longer play
And in the streets, the indentured children screamed
Lady Liberty wept and the Democrats schemed
But not a word was spoken, the Bill of Rights was all broken
And as the flames climbed high into the night to light the sacrificial rite
I saw Satan, Biden, Pelosi and Fauci laughing with delight
The year American freedom died
cont’d…
Refrain:
And they were singing, ” why, why my America died?”
The media was implicit, and our voices all died
Them good ol boys were drinkin whiskey and rye
Singing this is the day America died’
Thank so much for the cheery song ha ha. Well at least I have my sense of humour. Sort of. That’s something good I guess.
That’s some good filking there… Well done.
Some of the most prominent and visible insurrectionists currently under indictment include a shaman that requires organic jail food, a BLM/Antifa organizer on CNN’s payroll, the son of a Demo NYC judge that thinks MAGA dresses in animal pelts, an ex military transgender with bomb making information in her home, and a retired FBI special op allegedly running the operation.
Those white supremacist Oath Keepers sure embrace diversity in their ranks. ?
2021 is starting out to be a POS. I am starting to think that even praying to God is not helping out anymore, when people like Rush die and the killers of babies in the womb, like PIGLOSI and SCHUMER are allowed to live.
Yep DeBlasio had to change his mind about shutting down POTUS ice rinks after he got major backlash (and likely threats of a lawsuit from Trump Organization and some speculate they couldn;t find anyone to take over for the remainder of the season.. So now they are back up and running..till April when they would have closed down for the season..
If you are above ground, everything is not lost. Figuratively “Stock up on sugar” as a previous post put it. Also “Live your best life” and do what you can some may be able to do much some may have limited avenues but what may be a little action today may have wide ranging affects years later. Join those local precinct organizations and stealth may be our friend.
I’m also entertaining myself by finding substitutes for everything I ever bought on Amazon.
And today I had the joy of a begging letter from Romma McDaniel and the RNC. I took out my pen and started commenting – covered the two pages with choice comments (nothing vulgar of course), ripped up the contribution card, cut up the membership card, carefully placed it all back in the postpaid envelope, and it’s waiting to hit a mailbox on my next trip.
It will be very interesting to see whether they keep me on their list. I’ve ripped up and sent back AARP many times and they never stopped…
And if you live where you can not completely give up Amazon perhaps you can figure out a way to cut way way back.
We are very isolated where we live, and we have looked and looked and Amazon is the only place that offers a few of the things we really need.
We have been able to cut back a lot of our Amazon shopping but not all and we have really looked and tried.
In fact I do. I went to a friend’s birthday party Saturday and talked with a guy my age (30). He had a YUGE pink mohawk, wore gothic black clothing and was nearly covered head to toe in piercings/tattoos. I naturally expected we would not see eye to eye on much but couldn’t have been more wrong.
He expressed his grave concern about his young daughter being kept from a decent education. He told me that although he is not Christian, he enrolled his daughter in a private Christian school. He drops her off and picks her up every morning.
I commended him for going the extra mile and listened to him rant awhile and vent his frustration about the lockdown. I convinced him that these lockdowns will end when WE decide they end.
I know it doesn’t seem like much but if you’re willing to listen to people you may find allies in the places you least expect!
People are waking up. All we must do is stay married to the truth and be willing to talk AND listen.
Good post Stranger.
That might be one of our best strengths that we do not look alike but if we are willing to LISTEN we can cobble together a huge Patriot army.
Our enemy, on the other hand, is trying to divide us into tribes or groups and weaken us.
They have no idea how many human beings love freedom and family and will die for this.
This is big mistake that all communist regimes make it seems.
Monarchies will stay in power for centuries because they allow the peasants to keep their religion and their families.
Monarchies seemed to understand the need to leave these powerful links of human nature alone and all is fine.
Communists come in to power and go about trashing both and maybe last a hundred years or so if they are lucky.
Except for China, I do not understand China and why the CCP has managed to be in power for so long there.
Maybe it was their former religion being different than the Christian religion. When communism replaces Christianity it does not do well maybe it slides in better when it replaces something else.
No disrespect meant to any Religion just wondering.
On the national perspective I don’t.
Just my local anecdotal observations.
I looks to me as though more shoppers are going mask less and many more are congratulating me and my husband for not wearing one when we are out and about.
I have had staff at every single store last week tell me they were fed up and sick and tired of being forced to wear a mask for almost a year now with no end in sight.
I sense some kind of pent up anger against the Biden administration and his minions for every little burden they add to the average persons life.
Reading the “news” is very disheartening and I tend to stay away from it as much as I can.
Our uniparty is trying to discourage us, we need to understand what is happening but to know how to counter the enemy but I really do not think that pouring over the news on the internet or keeping the TV tuned into FOX NEWS all day give the real perspective as to what we are dealing with.
It makes the enemy seem more powerful and indestructable than they are.
We can begin to feel tiny and helpless and tired before we even begin to try to do anything.
We are defeated before we start, not a good place or even the real place to be.
The enemy has the psychological side of this war down pretty good so far.
Learn how to fight against them on this level.
No doubt the big media providers will do exactly what the Marxists tell them to do as far as deplatforming Fox, OANN, Nrwsmax etc. Heck, they already give billions to BLM and other self-avowed Marcist groups. Remember, we have the 20th century to show us exactly what their end game is.
The communusts infiltrated fully the Democrat Party in 1972, and patiently waited for the in the flesh first communist Predident in 2008.
The Dems control the FCC now.
1947, but who’s counting.
“why CTH has been spending so much time and effort building-out an anti-fragile website where we can continue to present the unfiltered truth of events”
they can still block access to this site
That’s the next stop
where your ISP blocks access to unapproved sites.
damn we need a game plan bad And fast
Sundance can email every single one of us a newsletter if needed.
Lately I think about how the 1st century Christians identified themselves to one another secretly in public… look it up if you don’t know. Might need to do that again.
I wear a silver chain with a basket charm (deplorable)
So do I!! Wow, great minds…
We think along the same lines MamaTried!
Snail mail, burner phones and ham radio if we are forced to go there we will go there.
And look where the first century Christians are now as compared to the Romans who put them in with the lions for fun and entertainment.
The Colosseum is a crumbling tourist attraction and the vaulted fearsome Roman Empire is long long gone.
The Catholic Vatican has their own government that we send ambassadors to.
Hope that is not where we have to go but if it is that is what we do.
The truth will get out here and out there if we want it too.
Don’t think ISPs can block like that. It’s not that easy to block people from seeing what they want I don’t think.
Shamcast got caught throttling internet speeds on Netflix downloads a few years back. “Quality Of Service” prioritization. They can do whatever the FTC allows them to do, including outright blocking of “illegal or banned content”… get it?… “illegal or banned content”. OAN and Bannon’s War Room would have to stream from the Dark Web. Imagine that?
You’re listening to Internet Free America… it’s half past the hour… coming up: we sat down with two Gulag survivors, and their harrowing stories have to be heard to be believed… but first, these headlines…
I remember that well; the Netfli throttling.
I suspect Google already figured out how to do that for the CCP. We’re next.
No it is very easy. This site has a DNS IP address. That address will be added to a master database of blocked sites.
“House Congressional Committee Organizes ‘Ministry of Truth’, Asks Cable Media to Begin Censoring Unapproved Speech“
And not to be outdone by its partners in crime, the Pentagon has its own ‘Ministry of Truth’ with its ongoing Wrong Think Purge.
The beginning of the end of truth in our country, began in 1963, and then 1973. Obama finished it off 2008 to 2016.
What is the common thread?
The CIA
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Who%27s_Who_in_the_CIA
In 1968, Julius Mader published “Who’s Who in the CIA” from East Berlin, doxxing the US intel agencies and their operatives.
…”In retaliation, the CIA assisted journalist John Barron in writing his book KGB: The Secret Work of Soviet Secret Agents, the appendix of which named 1,600 alleged KGB and GRU officers posted abroad under diplomatic cover. Barron told the New York Times, that he received help from the CIA in writing the appendix.[3]”…

1947.
Joe administration have any Good news for US?
so far I haven’t heard any thing Good But joe been Too Busy singing off what president Trump achieve for our country,
Might as well close-down Congress and let the UN take things from here. Bring on the Blue Helmets.
“Live your best life, and pour sand into their machinery whenever possible.”
We could put sand (or sugar) in their gas tanks before, but the Democommunists have thought of everything. Mandate electric cars and ban gas tanks. Astute readers will realize this is a metaphor.
Gets caught by the filters.
Now diesel in gas or water……
Head of the actual Ministry of Truth is Jen Circleback Psaki.
The SCOTUS ruling:
Pardon me for asking a question borne of ignorance, but what do we do now?
Voting doesn’t matter.
The law does not matter.
The Constitution does not matter.
Any move to push the criminal legislators out will be met with police and military force (LEO and the military are NOT on our side; we don’t write their checks we only fund them).
So WTF do we do?
The First Amendment, once held in such high regard by all Americans, will be suspended “for the good of the nation”, and white supremacy will be seen anywhere one does not bow to the new world order.
So what do we do?
Don’t start with the bs about the “power of the ballot box”, that time passed maybe as long ago as the 1890s. A violent reaction would only create a huge vacuum and chaos. The rule of law was long sent packing, so that’s out.
What now?
I don’t know. I feel exactly like you. Powerless. They control it all
and I don’t even know who I can trust anymore
we need our 10 best conservative thinkers to brainstorm together. No egos. No pride of authorship. Create a blueprint for action and get it out there fast before all lines of communications are closed down. If time hasn’t already run out it is rapidly approaching
I feel as you do. This is all very sad and very frightening.
I feel the same as well. But won’t stop fighting. I give it right back to any lib/commie when they make their assumed remarks that are politically slanted but they think “everyone agrees” with. That’s all I can do on a daily basis to local morons/communists (most who don’t even know they are communists).
What did the Minutemen do in the face of British Imperialism? What did the French Resistance do during Nazi occupation?
Once people that would do anything not to get involved, feel that they need to be involved, then things will change. Unfortunately for the traitors, when the people get involved that just wanted to live their life in peace their will be no mercy, no quarter given, to those who stole our peaceful lives from us. War!
And the Poles who went underground in the sewers of Warsaw to fight the Nazis, would have won the war if only England or Russia would have came in and helped them. That is how well they did fighting the Nazis. And both of those countries said no. It can be done, one enemy at a time.
“What did the Minutemen do in the face of British Imperialism? ” Remember the Boston Tea Party? We can refuse to pay taxes. Refuse to pay for our demise. We need to get loud and assert ourselves. It will get ugly but the alternative is even uglier.
The states have to secede. That’s the only somewhat orderly way I can think of. If TX or FL would start I bet others would follow. Of course it wouldn’t be easy but maybe better than an out and out 1775.
When you think of it the left has in many ways already discarded those of us on the right. All they want from us now is our money. Well at unknown trillions in debt I don’t think they deserve another cent.
I tend to come to that conclusion no matter how many times I dance around all scenarios.
Voting, the law, the constitution…
In much of my lifetime, I’m not convinced that it did matter. The difference is now millions are aware of the problem, rather than a small few. That’s what’s changed.
Millions of Americans fully aware of the corruption in the government is a good start to solving the problem.
Any move in the past would have been, and was met, with the hand of the state or it’s agents.
Now there are 70 million voices. They can try to suspend 70 million voices, but I don’t believe 70 million Americans will be silenced. The social media oligarchs own a few transitory facts, not our culture, imo.
Uncovering the width, depth and breadth of the swamp was Pres Trump’s greatest accomplishment.
I knew we had a problem in DC but I had NO IDEA as to how really bad it was until the 2020 election and watching the R members of congress, Pence and then the Supreme Court turn on PT and us, We the People who legally elected Donald J Trump.
Then I watched as state governors and legislatures, some R also, turned on their voters and all of them left us hanging.
Then I watched as some governors sent the NG troops to DC to “protect” some body there against something.
No one not our R leaders in DC or our R governors or state legislators or the Supreme Court did or will help us.
No one.
That is what President Donald J Trump did for out country and when it was happening it chilled me to the bone but it needed to be done.
We can depend on no one but Us, ourselves and our fellow patriots.
The election battle must be fought at the state level. I expect the patriots in Pennsylvania, Virginia, Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, and Nevada will go to battle with the state legislatures and governors to assure fair elections, getting rid of programmable vote counting machines.
Town, village, city, county councils, school boards, planning boards, zoning boards, regional planning boards, elections, local libraries, cooperative extension events…
Show up, participate, volunteer, have a voice. Learn how to FOI your local government for answers that aren’t forthcoming. Engage with the press. Blow the whistle, especially if it costs you a job that offends your conscience. There are better opportunities to be had.
This is the public square, not social media. Social media oligarchs, MSM, and unaccountable government want fear, intimidation, and distraction so other voices stay home from the public arena, and continue to click furiously in nonreality.
The left is showing up; they understand the difference, imo.
I keep telling you people that corrupt Lawyers, Corrupt Politician Lawyers(Half of Congress are Lawyers) and a corrupt, complicit Judiciary has destroyed our Republic……I don’t know what more evidence you need…..The Republic was destroyed from within by Bastardizing the Legal system…..
No more needed for me. I agree, and had all the evidence I needed 18 years ago when I graduated from Boulder with my poli-sci degree. It was clear as day then, and full up in your face now.
Freedom of Speech will be a thing of the past and the S.C. have proven they will do nothing to uphold the first amendment. The second is also on its way out this year. I remember when CNN allowed comments on their website. Their response to viewer dissent was to ban comments. I remember when The Weather Channel used to allow comments to their videos until they were called out on their bs stories about global warming and climate change. Their response was not to allow dissent. I remember when our local liberal paper used to allow comments, but even they too have stopped the truth from being told through viewer comments. Soon, nobody will be allowed to disagree with the “radical left” agenda or even peacefully protest. I feel confident in saying that Republicans will idly sit by while America is destroyed.
ETA: Fox is no better. I can’t count the number of times their liberal moderators have deleted individual comments and entire conversations that were well within the rules for posting. How many times have people complained about their comments disappearing? They are just as bad, but pretend to be different. I think election night should have been a rude awakening to those who thought Fox was “Fair and Balanced.” Most patriots already knew that Fox was on their way to being the next CNN.
TRUTH vs Moral relativism.
TRUTH:
John 14:6 – Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.
1 Peter 2:1-3 – But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves. Many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of the truth will be maligned; and in their greed they will exploit you with false words; their judgment from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep.
Moral Relativism:
Romans 1:18-25 – For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.
For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures.
Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them. For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
Last paragraph defines the wrath of abandonment, which I believe we are under now!
Also this
Isaiah 3:9-10
English Standard Version
9
For the look on their faces bears witness against them;
they proclaim their sin like Sodom;
they do not hide it.
Woe to them!
For they have brought evil on themselves.
10
Tell the righteous that it shall be well with them,
for they shall eat the fruit of their deeds.
People are “seeing” what currently it really is right now. It is not going away by wishing it will go away. However, when the time is correct there will be explicit action.
An unusual number of people in California are selling their homes out of fear housing prices will fall and they are preserving their equity. It is one reason the sudden demand for rental housing. Prices and demand for rentals are going up.
More and more people who voted for Biden are now sorry they did and see the Communist-style Presidency for what it is. There is still a lot of “seeing” yet to be done before the “feeling” phase begins.
All by design RE: Cali middle/upper middle selling. Markt drops, cheap enough for the new California illegal latino population to buy’em at a price they can afford and move in.
Then you have just what they want there. The nobles, and the serf to do their bidding. Merchant class, BEGONE!
Nothing new under the sun – or the Son.
Read the new Natan Sharansky article about his father’s time in the Soviet Union as a writer, and his own in a soviet prison…mocking his guards because they were afraid to laugh at his anti-soviet (but true) jokes.
This is the edited version.

We’ve been listening to the audio book of Washington: A Life – by Ron Chernow.
When you realize that Washington’s strength was spiritual strength, and without it, he would be a footnote in history, you realize…We can all increase our spiritual strength to fight the battles God allows us to engage in.
Sharing ideas from American Thinker on how the communists took down their captors.
The following tactics are presented purely for entertainment purposes, taken from various examples in former-communist nations. Obey all laws! You assume all risk if you choose to pursue any of them, which we don’t recommend.
Of course, the actual destruction of communist forces took widespread revolts and rebellions. But if we can make the cost more painful to our socialist overlords now, the long term goals can shift and the final outcome can change. Bureaucracy is the pillar our government uses to oppress us. Lucky for us it’s made out of glass and easy to bring down. Hiqja qimen thiut, comrades.

I am very heavily engaged in the stop buying from bad companies item.
Thankfully that one – the boycott – is still legal.
And don’t forget to increase buying from good companies – the BUYcott part! Do you have Your Pillow yet?
My mother always claimed that I was “mouthy.”
Putting that to good use now.
Jim Jordan or Mike Johnson should send a letter to these same media providers and ask, “Given that the four years of Trump/Russia collusion was nothing but Democrat disinformation, do you plan to continue carrying ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and MSNBC”?
The culturally marxist alphabet people are insane. Why does the majority continue to ignore or acquiesce to the insanity of less than 2% of the population in perpetuity?
They need to be taken out back and put down like a rabid dog.
Once this legislation passes Congress the corrupt Supreme Court will rule it legal and that will be the end of the 1st Amendment. Next up will be the 2nd Amendment which will have the same fate as the 1st is my guess!
The Second Amendment will be the Hill That They Die On.
Tee hee.. see what I did there?
I was just thinking the same Bubby. The Supreme Court of the US will find a way to nullify the 2nd amendment, I can feel it coming. That will be the hill, the point at which people start standing their ground and fighting back.
Don’t worry folks, the SCOTUS will dispatch this very grave Constitutional infringement before you can say “Whiskey Tango Foxtrot”.
Disconnect your damn cable television.
So does this mean they’ll go after the msm for fomenting fear around covid-19 and inaccurate reporting about the capital breach?
LOL – or how about the russian collusion?
Hoping Neil Sedaka chimes in on this one.
It’s not that hard to do.
We are very close to the point of no return. Either we just sit by twiddling our thumbs and let them take every one of our rights away, or we just start the war now.
I think it will take the form of guerilla action. I’m just waiting on special operators to take the actions that they are well trained for. That will be the signal and it will be unmistakable. Think Nationally, Act Locally.
Where in the article is cnn, msnbc, or any of the networks covered?
Who gets to decide what is disinformation?
The rush to totalitarianism is breathtaking.
Five months ago we were the envy of the world. Since then we have evolved into a banana republic. I talk to many levelheaded people who are increasingly becoming concerned with an actual civil war.
About 2 weeks ago OANN had a brief segment between shows asking for viewers to call their providers and thank them for airing the network. No explanation: just a simple request.
I can’t even think about this anymore. My beloved country is GONE.
No, your country and people are as strong as they ever were.
Its just that the ass clowns are in positions of “leadership”.
This shouldn’t surprise us.
They are very, very fearful.
Covid has been useful to isolate and silence people for a while. Now this.
Yes, they are very afraid. Just look at the razor wire around the Capitol. The naked, jaw-dropping push for censorship. Their economy-killing measures designed to impoverish the middle class. I’m sure they wanted to take their time doing all of this, but too much has happened to expose them. I’m praying these hasty measures will wake more and more people up. If not? I’m stumped.
Keep your head down and stay under radar. Bear in mind this is not a thin line between them and us. There is a huge gray area of people who will be very surprised their speech is censored. The Smith College admin liberal all her life lady who came out with the video and has now resigned. She was an alum of Smith College. She said many had contacted her but were scared. That’s just her college and her friends. Multiply by thousands of colleges. There are many thousands maybe millions who will be very surprised. We have known what could happen for years. It will hit them one day over a weekend. They will be the ones who flip these current monstrosities if they can be flipped. They will be red pilled over a weekend. And the state will have to subdue them. It won’t be pretty.
Prescient.
Murdoch son funds Dem-allied fake
news while slamming conservative
media ‘disinformation’
Washington Times, by S.A. Miller
James Murdoch and his wife Kathryn split from the family’s Fox News empire and condemned conservative-leaning media for “spreading disinformation,” but at the same time gave a half-million dollars to a political action committee linked to a Democrat-allied fake news operation.(Snip) While championing journalistic integrity, however, Kathryn Murdoch gave a total of $500,000 to Pacronym, a super PAC affiliated with the liberal activist group Acronym and its pseudo-news outlets called Currier Newsroom, according to Federal Election Commission records. The Currier Newsroom disguises Democratic Party talking points and Democratic candidate press releases as news reports. “Courier Newsroom, which is funded by
I will not watch their TeeVees
I will not buy their products
I will not participate in their “society”
I grew up in the ’70s of the rust belt. Everyone else will be broken before I even begin to bend.
.. And I will still be having a great time enjoying my life 🙂
All they need to do is prove the election was fair by allowing examinations of machines and original ballots. Someone hiding that information cannot expect to be taken seriously. There should be NO assumption that they are telling the truth because just like the Russia collusion investigation, a thorough investigation was required to get to the truth & the President and his party should welcome that.
DemoKKKrats are Nazi
So, the Democrat Congress is asking private business to do what Congress cannot legally do itself. Sounds like the police asking your landlady search your bedroom while you’re at work and turn over the bank account records they couldn’t get themselves. How long would it take LAWFARE to have that police practice declared illegal? About 20 minutes!
It still can be ruled unconstitutional. If government instructs a company to censor speech, it’s the same as government itself censoring the speech. That’s how it happens. Congress can’t physically go to each citizen and tell them to shut up. No, it would have to be Congress telling publishers, media, and other purveyors of information to censor us. Since the government holds the noose, aka licensing and taxing power, the media has to obey. It’s exactly the same as if Congress passed a law that censored you.
