“You never know how strong you are until being strong is your only option.” I think it was Bob Marley who said that… lol. But it’s true.
I’m so far outside the wire trying to research, communicate, dig through the globalist lies and quantify the crazy in terms that are understandable; sometimes I think this effort itself is nuts. Then again, being a dissident means living your best life, and don’t stop swinging for the fences.
The original plan was to meet with people who have a solid, I mean historically impenetrable understanding of how to organize a solidarity movement, then learn, learn… ask questions, seek counsel, find the network, and put the plans into an actionable effort that could be brought back to the USA. {GO DEEP}
Yes, in case you have not been paying attention, the best people to teach you how to defend against the looming communist, fascist and corporatist encroachment are the people who fought it.
The Eastern EU countries are the epicenter of the best rebel alliance thinkers. Pulling the labeled dissidents into my orbit, learning and questioning, has been extremely interesting and seriously informative.
The initial plan was to bring a few people back with me to the U.S., then go on a short tour of several states for meetings and discussions with stateside allies. However, some entity at the Dept of State intercepted the plan, and we have run into newly refused visa issues even though they were previously approved.
If I was a conspiracy minded person, I would notice these visa issues “happened” immediately after my laptops and other devices were compromised by a “virus” in Prague that rendered them useless.
That said, I am not quitting the effort to bring them to the U.S. yet. Yep, ask those who know, and you’ll discover that putting a hurdle in front of a CTH plan only makes my resolve harden. Also, there are far more good people inside the system trying to help than there are bad people trying to harm… the difference is the bad people are in positions of power and authority. They are few, we are many – don’t forget that.
The EU farmers, truckers, machinists, general laborers with shakable calloused hands are all super insightful and full of no-quit in their DNA, -that’s super cool.
People stateside tell me I’m crazy for trying this… hell, who knows, maybe I am. I’ve failed a lot… but I ain’t gonna quit. I love this country, and she’s worth fighting for. I don’t have the answers; I just know the current status quo is not going to work – not for me, not for you, and not for the generation behind us that deserves so much better.
If you’ve got a better idea, then tell me. Don’t be quiet… speak. I’ve got a lot of research complete and an entire network ready to mobilize to support any stateside effort. The rest of the world knows how important 2024 is to the USA, and they are willing to put their time into helping us get President Trump back into office.
We already know if Donald Trump can take the MAGA fight back to Washington DC, the entire apparatus of government, and yes that includes your elected representatives, will fight to destroy him at every opportunity. So, how exactly do we: (a) support President Trump, (b) push back against the weaponized state, (c) confront our government abusers?
There are more of us than them, yet each of our efforts seems to face the full force of “them” against a divided sense of “us.” One of the ways we have discussed direct push back is a modern version of a workers solidarity movement. Essentially, the creation of a system where targeted general work strikes can have an impact on the system that is targeting us.
It is one thing to discuss the Polish Solidarity Movement in esoteric terms of endearment. It is another thing entirely to think about the application of a labor strike process within the United States where 370 million people live. However, if you apply the concept of tactical civics simultaneously, you can make an argument the tactical civics are the shield (EU truckers), and the labor strike is the spear (EU farmers).
One of the advantages we have in the USA governmental structures is the “Republican Form of Government,” or the constitutional republic and the ability of states to determine their own interests.
Think about targeting now going in reverse, where WE THE PEOPLE now target the non-compliant system operators and/or politicians. A Senator or Congress person aligns against Trump’s interests, our interests, and instead of gnashing our teeth, we immediately begin a targeted work stoppage in/around the representative’s district. In this scenario we don’t need tens of millions to make an impact, only a few thousand can completely change the dynamic.
How does it work? How is it possible? How did the people of Poland pay their bills during the solidarity strikes? How do you organize that process so that everyone can participate, and yet no one individually needs to carry the risk of losing? These nuts-and-bolts questions are part of my research mission.
How effective would a Congressional District (CD-??) “sick-out” be? Perhaps timed for every Wednesday, beginning on the {fill_in_the_blank_day}, and continuing until the representative understood that he/she alone was the cause of the economic trouble in their district. You see, the general labor strike doesn’t need to be scaled to the size of Poland circa 1980’s; instead with modern communication, it can target very specific places and create just as big an impact.
The dismantling of a weaponized government first begins with a set of political representatives who are willing to take apart the institutional tools that government uses to weaponize their power. As we saw with the hyped and yet failed Congressional Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of Government, once the public appears to be satiated with false hope from yet another created assembly, the representative group does nothing.
The urgency of the committee silo might look entirely different if the trash was not getting picked up in the committee members’ districts. Or the lawns were not getting mowed, or the cooks stayed home, etc.
You never realize how strong you are until being strong is your only option.
I will have much more to share on this issue as we will likely have a lot of support from ordinary MAGA-minded people in a multitude of countries. The Dutch, German, Polish, Romanian, French, Spanish and Irish farmers/truck drivers are figuring out how effective it can be if they push back with strategic solidarity. We can learn a valuable lesson.
Whether Donald Trump wins the 2024 election or not, the same practical process will be needed. If Trump wins the election, it will be to provide support under the auspices of unavoidable pressure.
We don’t wait for primary races to defeat the people who stand against us in 2025; instead, we trigger the financial consequences against them immediately.
If you’ve got better ideas, then share them. If you think this effort can work, then HELP ME HERE.
Love to all,

I’m on their tail…. 😎

With the massive internet controls planned for us, I’m wondering how effective the modern communications will work.
Sundance, a PO. Box for donations would help a lot.
Perhaps the most consequential action folks could take to ensure our governmental representatives are elected, not selected, & truly represent “The Will of the People”, is to work in a focused, collaborative community effort to eliminate electronic voting machines/systems. Here’s a rough draft of a well-thought-out, cost-effective replacement approach that improves efficiency, accuracy, & transparency by utilizing secure paper ballots – hand-counted at the precinct level, secure voter ID, & single-day voting: https://t.me/toresaysPlus/45195
The issue here in NH is more complicated than just a paper ballot and hand count. I was part of the Election Integrity group from 2020 and here is where I found system vulnerabilities:
Our town uses paper ballots that then go through a tabulator. The tabulator spits out a tape receipt that shows how many votes went to each candidate (and also other issues being voted on in local concerns). The results are then ELECTRONICALLY sent to the state (problem one – are the right numbers being reported).
Then the state reports the total figures – are they reporting the correct outcomes?
To check all these issues requires that one go to each town and get copies of the register tapes, compare them with what the town reports, then what the state reports.
We tried to hit every town to get copies and got many of them. But some town clerks were really nasty and had to be reminded that it is their duty and our right to see them. Many of our volunteers got discouraged.
Then the person spear heading the effort was lied about in the press (Marilyn Todd) and she and her husband were arrested by Gov. Sununu at a open state meeting.
So until we can have truth in reporting, all the paper ballots in the world wont fix the problem.
THANK YOU for what you are doing in NH. You are right that there is cheating in parts of the system most people don’t even know exists. “Paper ballots, hand counted” is just shorthand, for quite a bunch of things that need to be in place for truth to prevail.
One aspect of the hand counting is, as you say, they must be counted at the local level, which reduces the number of moving parts in the system. You send the NUMBER, NOT THE BALLOTS, to the county level in a very public way, maybe speakerphone. (When you later send the ballots, you send them with the complete record of exactly what is in the box – very bad idea to be sending a box with an unknown number of ballots!)
First you ask the county person how many votes they already have. Then you tell them how many votes you are adding. Then you confirm that their total went up by that exact amount. (If they can’t do first-grade addition, they probably shouldn’t be in that job.)
Picture everybody standing around the precinct person making the phone call on speakerphone – everyone adds up the two numbers to see if they agree, and the county is on camera, so everyone watching on TV can also hear the number they are given to add and can agree the number went up by that much and only that much. (Obviously you can’t let them claim that multiple precincts reported at the same time!) And their lists of what came in from which precinct, at what time, have to be completely open during and after the election, so everybody who cares to can recreate the addition problem and agree with it.
It is more complicated than just “paper ballots” to make sure nobody lies, but it’s a whole lot simpler than electronic signals in closed boxes which you would have to be a computer expert to understand even if they would let you see it, which they won’t. It’s been done throughout history, and in many other countries, we can do this too.
God bless you! This is such an enormous uphill battle against the administrative state’s tentacles.
Ballots need to be counted and verified against the tape that night in the election district by the election inspectors just as every store and bank verifies the cash drawer against the tape that night. They don’t bundle the cash and deposit it ina bank based on what the machine tape said or they’d be committing fraud.
Paper ballots, same day voting, voter ID are, as we now know, absolutely necessary to maintain our established freedom and our Republic. But what happens if a state of emergency is called and the 2024 election is postponed or cancelled? What then? We no longer live in a Republic. It exists only in our hearts, our memories, our knowledge of the truth. That’s why Sundance’s idea, research and suggestions are spot on. If it’s an organized localized stand, not a rally or protest, but a “sick-out” people will more readily be able to survive that financially and thus be more willing to participate, potentially.
In my 20s (50 years ago) I was aware something wasn’t right. I often imagined what would happen if for just one day all the secretaries didn’t show up for work. This was before business relied on computers. Today, a day or two of “sick-out” days might even be paid days off for some. I am retired now, so I’ll have to contemplate other ways to help if and when We the People decide to “peacefully and patriotically” take action. Eyes wide open and deliberate action.
We are the many. We have the power. And, as Sundance points out, We the People are world wide. I am all in. Let’s cripple the Deep Stater players where they live; buy coffee, service their car, go out to dinner or otherwise entertain themselves. It’s an excellent idea.
I mentioned in a post or a response to someone’s post on this thread earlier that one of our weakness’ is lack of comprehensive media. At the time I think I referred to us need an “underground communications system”.
Better than underground, we really need media outlets that even the normies can consume. So this morning in my email inbox was a Rumble notification that I had a new video “In the SCIF with General Flynn”.
General Flynn and Brannon Howse have started patriot.tv with a number of different commentators who can provide current news and analysis. Check it out!

We actually have quite a bunch of good sources, but more people need to be aware of more of them: TCH (obviously!), frankspeech.com and franksocial.com, truthsocial.com, creativedestructionmedia.com, thegatewaypundit.com, zerohedge.com, childrenshealthdefense.com, for a start.
This may have already been discussed, but I saw this morning on another website/blog that the truckers have backed down from their NYC boycott. This just affirms my fear that we have moved beyond any real conviction to take our country back. I don’t ever see any of us really participating in a local strike or work slow down. We all want our comfortable lives too much at this point. Or maybe it’s too early yet and we have not felt the full sting of tyranny. I hope I am wrong.
My fear as well.
If our comfortable lives become seriously uncomfortable, people may take action.
Otherwise, Americans will continue to keep their heads in the sand.
Sundance, you are a really big deal in my personal journey, and I truly love you for what you help us see. Keying in on this “I love this country, and she’s worth fighting for”. FOR ME it is far more about the ideals, somewhat less so the borders, and FAR behind that the institutions that have been put in place since the Declaration. I like to revisit the very serious question of defining EXACTLY what “this country” is TO ME, which widens my perspective, and narrows my focus on precisely what IS worth fighting for. It also has the effect of clarifying where the cancerous cells are.

Blackrock apparently owns congress and has a vested stake in the outcome. Write about that.
I’m a recent visitor here, and as I’ve mentioned, it’s been great. Humor, wise cracks, and a true education.
I contributed my thoughts to a few of the current threads, for what they’re worth. I was up WAY too late reading here last night to add this but I think it is imperative to any kind of solidarity.
On the thread with “New York Governor … Targeting … Ony Trump”, I read these remarks:
Lindak to Aggiegirl “idiot”
(NOT for a leftist remark).
Later, Georgia Lane “Kemp. Ugh” Bill of Rights “Kemp. Can you clarify. ” Barry “If you need clarification you’re not really paying attention.” And thank you to He Already Won for the clarification.
I envy you who are able to stay so abreast of all of the multitude of goings on in current events. Even when I had the access, I relied on others to inform me, like this site. And I’ve got a ton of things going on, as do most of us, battles with insurance, state representatives, local politics, health issues, home upkeep, and my wonderful dogs.
I’m an outsider and I get the “insider” membership, the acronyms and shorthand and pictures without names that I don’t get. That’s how it is with friends and family.
But I brought this to this thread, as an outsider looking in, to suggest that if your goal is to bring inactive people in and create solidarity, EVERYONE needs to keep those goals in mind and consciously leave the arrogance and snarkiness behind, here on this site. (And trust me, as a long time smart ass, I know that’s HARD )
Pull up a branch and enjoy yourself !!!!
Welcome to the Treehouse.
Yes, once in a while there may be some comments that, intentional or not, come across as a bit harsh. And, once in a while if we stray too far off from our civilized selves, our hosts will offer a post full of reminders of what behavior is acceptable and what is not. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this world and its complex issues that we all must deal with.
Be careful out there
God bless you, yet again, Sundance. ♥️🇺🇲🙏
Regarding, “… begins with a set of political representatives… willing to take apart the institutional tools… government uses to weaponize their power”
Here is a link to a Canadian provincial government legislating a Tax Revolt against the Canadian federal government:
Tax Revolt: Government of Saskatchewan to stop collecting/remitting federal carbon tax January 1st 2024.

SD,
Recommend focusing efforts (protests, etc) solely on election integrity (ie ensure every swing state uses paper ballots, hand counted, same day, voter ID) as that is the key to unf&&king all of this as election will then accurately reflect the will of We the People(the majority), DJT will be in WH, and he will start erasing Biden by signing EOs minutes after inauguration. Your suggestion relies on RNC nationwide organization we (should but) dont have and wont matter if elections are still corrupt.
Just bear in mind Sundance, your anonymity is a double edged sword. It keeps you safe from the ‘crazies’ but not the government. If you were on the evening news being railroaded on fake accusations, Treepers wouldn’t know. Please make sure you have some trusted peeps to put out a call for help (whatever that may look like.).
Stay safe.
