The United States Constitution, Article II, Section 1.
The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.
The President is primarily an executive. But…
Article II, Section 2.
The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States;
In a strictly and specifically military context, the President is the Commander in Chief of the United States armed forces. And only in that specific context.
Senior White advisor Keisha Lance Bottoms, after a stint of further ruining Atlanta, has clarified for those who missed the obvious militaristic elements of Biden’s Pennsylvania speech. He was speaking as the Commander in Chief, not merely as the executive.
“What the president has done as our commander in chief is he’s reminded us that democracies are fragile,” she said. “And if we are not intentional about preserving who we are as a country, if we are not intentional about reminding ourselves that there is a rule of law in this country, then we will be in danger.”
Which explains the presence of uniformed Marines, in a context where they otherwise seemed out of place.
When Biden made his threateningly partisan speech calling for the suppression of half the country, he was — according to Bottoms, senior White House advisor — speaking officially in a military context.
As Commander in Chief, Biden just authorized the use of military force against his political opposition. You, quite possibly.
I fear the American military is about to face a choice they haven’t seen since the dawn of the 19th century Civil War. It appears to be time for the armed forces to choose sides.
I hope this was merely more of Bottoms’ stupidity.
Added: I have reached out to Bottoms, asking if she would like to clarify her claim. As of this writing, all I have received is an automated response saying that she rarely checks her email. I’ve attempted an alternate address the auto-reply provided (no response to that one either).

You know, censorship and persecution of people with unacceptable speech, and even thoughts is all the rage since the Biden junta seized power and is trying their best to turn us into a Banana RepublicTM
It is of course coming out, that the FIB as they were attacking parents at school board meetings also found time to continue to cover up for crackhead Hunter Biden and his laptop. The couple that found Ashley Biden’s diary have been accused of “stealing” it. Bidens seem to do that, leave interesting things laying around, laptops, diaries, and the like. With Joe it probably depends.
And with the discovery of the latest corrupt action of the corrupt FIB there are some agreeing it probably did have an impact on the election, in terms of the Biden laptop. I mean seriously, if people had known they were electing someone who gets paid more from China than U.S. would they still have voted for him? Well, yeah, the people on their 6th non-mandated vaxx would have, but other than them? The FIB’s corruption is so well known and so diverse, that it got more than two joke in the Bee.
“We couldn’t do our job protecting America without the incredible permanent markers made by Sharpie,” said FBI Director Christopher Wray. “From helping us black out coverage of Hunter’s laptop, to hiding how we acted as a tool for Democrats to investigate fabricated ‘Russian collusion’ charges – Sharpie has been there every step of the way.”
And the second one leads to the point of this column.
“We cannot have news about us censoring people get out there uncensored,” said FBI director Christopher Wray. “The solution to people being upset about us squashing a damaging story in order to tilt an election is quite simple: we squash that story as well, which will hopefully then tilt the next election. And if people then discover we censored the stories about censorship, we’ll censor that too. This job is actually pretty easy.”
That satirical column was in response to this actual interview by Joe Rogan of Mark Zuckerbucks.
Yes that agency known for it’s corruption is being found out. Hopefully actual conservatives will take control of the house this fall by sweeping elections and dismantle the FIB and keep the 14 whistleblowers that have come forward, sack everyone else as they aren’t honest, and start from the ground up.
But what else has been in the news a lot lately involving free speech, and the lack thereof? The Alex Jones case. And that’s what got me started thinking about this. I listened to a podcast today and the Alex Jones case came up as it related to this particular podcast. But here’s a bit about the persecution of Alex Jones. Like him or hate him, it’s the principle involved.
Jones is on the hook for tens of millions of dollars for sharing conspiracy theories about the Sandy Hook shooting. He was trotted out before a show trial where the leftist operative judge declared his guilt to the jury. Greene believes this is wrong and sets a bad precedent for free speech.
“You wanna know something? Somebody like Alex Jones – who did say some things…” Greene said during a panel at CPAC Texas.
“But yet he is being politically persecuted right now and being forced to pay out millions and millions of dollars.. And no one agrees with what he said, but what we’re tired of is the political persecution,” she continued.
Amidst all of the fanfare and controversy, it is easy to overlook just how weak the defamation case against Jones really was.
The Sandy Hook parents mentioned above based their defamation claim on a 2017 NBC interview where Heslin said he held his son’s body after he was murdered. In a contemporaneous Infowars segment, reporter Owen Shroyer said that, “according to a timeline of events and a coroner’s testimony, that is not possible,” and Jones responded by calling Heslin to “clarify” his statements.
Otherwise, all of Jones’s “defamatory” behavior is premised on him making wild but vague allegations of a Sandy Hook false flag by unknown forces. Virtually all of the damages, meanwhile, are based on blaming Jones for the actions of people he doesn’t even know.
So I have a question for you, what if Alex wasn’t wrong? And that was the point of the podcast. I like data, I like information, don’t you? I think without good information people can’t make intelligent choices, or have informed opinions. So I’m going to give you one little refresher video clip of Eric Holder, who defied a congressional subpoena with absolutely no consequences, telling a bunch of Demoncrats that people need to be brainwashed about gun control.
That clip will be referred to in the podcast. Jeremy Nell is a cartoonist and podcaster from South Africa. Thus the name Jerm Warfare for his podcast, the warfare part refers to the information war. The war on information, as it is. He’s kind of like Joe Rogan in that he has interesting conversations with interesting people. His guest for this episode is James Fetzer. There are some points of this episode I vehemently disagree with. I’m sure you’ll figure out what, but before you dismiss the topic, Sandy Hook, I listened to the podcast, but this is the video version so all the evidence he presents, the photos and the like you can see for yourself. It’s about an hour and a half. There is some pretty compelling stuff. Either the school was open or it wasn’t. That’s covered.
But what if Alex was right? Obama signed something like 23? 27? New gun control laws right after Sandy Hook.
But what would you and your family do for a million and a half dollars? Yeah, that’s covered as well.
I’m not telling anyone what to think, I’m presenting you with a podcast with information and a question, what if Alex was right? Either way persecution for free speech is not ok and is having disastrous effects on this country. Grab a cup of coffee.
So there I was, peacefully running the vacuum cleaner and listening to a radio show from Daniel Horowitz called Conservative Review. It’s always good, and I can learn a lot. They’ve been covering the Stasi raid on Mar-A-Lago, current events, and he refers a lot to the Federalist papers and relates them to the topic. All in all, just a very good show.
Today was a good show as well, but depressing as all get out. I was appalled that the Demoncrats decided to add 87,000 more armed IRS goons, willing to use deadly force. In fact that seems to be more important that using a calculator, or even doing math or learning the forms.
IRS Thug jobs
But you see, the IRS is just the tip of the iceberg. Turns out there are 200,000 armed federal agents, not only are they armed, they can make arrests. Yes indeedy, more than the Marines. Semper Calculator and Glock.
Who else has armed agents that one might not expect? Well, Daniel stated that he had recently had John Whitehead from the Rutherford Institute as a guest on his show and they discussed this. So I headed on over there because I had to keep backing the radio show up to try to get all these figures and it was becoming way too time consuming. I guess maybe I really should have learned shorthand. Do they still do shorthand?
But back to John, this is the list I got from him, it starts out in the order presented by Daniel.
IRS— 4,500 guns, including 621 shotguns, 539 long barrel rifles, 15 submachine guns and 5 million rounds of ammunition.
Apparently the armed IRS training started a long time ago, under the Bush regime. It was to train college and high school students how to be armed thugs. Doubt me? Watch the video, the desire for power over people seems to come through from the students. “You’re going to jail buddy”. Um, isn’t there supposed to be like, oh I dunno, some kind of hearing or something? But now the IRS solves “crimes”.
Here’s another one making the rounds, it’s shorter.
But this actually isn’t new! No no, this goes back, back to well, gee 2006 it looks like.
The VA, yes, the Veteran’s Administration– They have 11 million rounds of ammo, camo clothing, riot gear including helmets and tactical lights and some other goodies.
The HHS Department of Health and Human Services– The NIH and CDC are included in this, have 1,300 guns, including 5 submachine guns and 189 automatic firearms and 4 million rounds of ammunition. Are you kidding me?? Guess they’re afraid people are going to find out that Covid was created by Fauxci, is very survivable but, according the actuarial tables, the jab, not so much. But they do get training from Army Special Forces, so there is that. I guess that’s so they know hand to hand for jab resistors?
The SSA, the Social Security Administration– They have guns, armor and 800,000 rounds of ammunition. Guess they don’t need to worry about citizens being angry when they start giving out social security to illegals huh?
The Smithsonian—They have 620 armed special agents. Isn’t that special?
Who else has goodies? This list might surprise you, well, maybe not you, but it did me.
The U.S. Mint
The FDA—No wonder they aren’t worried about people finding out Pfizer paid the largest criminal fine in history for fraud, and that they didn’t want to release the data on the WuFlu shot for 75 years.
The SBA, Small Business Administration —Those loans will be repaid on time.
NOA, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration—They’re gonna shoot Flipper?
The Department of Education— Pay attention you little buggers.
Energy Department—You will have a green car and clothes dryer, or else.
Bureau of Engraving and Printing— I don’t even know what to say about this one.
An assortment of public universities— And a guess off the top of my head is, they are all gun-free zones, so how does that work?
And you thought the Post Office going to green vehicles and spying on social media for the government was a big problem! HA. The Xiden crime junta will show you!
In addition to all this, a survey was sent out and several of the agencies have tactical units as well.
But you know what? If you have the right kind of politicians in your state, you may have a bit of protection. I just heard this Florida politicians name on the show, and I love him! Jimmy Patronis is Florida’s Chief Financial Officer, and boy does he have some good ideas!
“Even though the Free State of Florida cannot control the insanity of Washington we must do what we can to protect our small businesses,” Patronis told The Epoch Times on Aug. 18. “This massive super expansion of the IRS is concerning to me. I think Washington is totally disconnected from what real Americans and Main Street is feeling.”
The four pillars of protection Patronis is suggesting involve requiring state-chartered banks to generate a regular report on IRS engagement in order to identify if patterns of “targeting the middle class and small businesses are ongoing. Second, establishing a Civil Liability Trust Fund to help small businesses defend themselves–or sue the IRS–in cases of politically motivated audits or any federal overreach. Third, requiring new IRS agents coming into the state to have a Florida license. And last, establishing criminal penalties by enforcing laws based on viewpoint or political discrimination.
Now tell me you don’t love those ideas!! And that was part of the point of Daniel’s radio show. The Founding Fathers never thought the threats would come from the Federal Government because it wasn’t suppose to have that much power. But they figured the States and the Federal Government would keep each other in check. And that is what we need now, strong state sovereignty legislation. Like versions of a Second Amendment Protection Acts, where if the Federal Agents exceed their wheelhouse they can be reined in. Mind you, we’ll need good local law-enforcement, and the left has tried to destroy that. I wrote a long time ago that if you keep demonizing cops and deputies pretty soon the only people that would go into the field would be the jackboots that they were accusing good men and women of being at the time. But those are just rough ideas on my part, Mr. Patronis has his act together.
I just hope one of the things the kids are learning in IRS school is:
“Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities…”
Welcome to the 3rd world banana republic known as Amerizuela. Or perhaps Ukranica? A place where political opponents are held in a gulag as POWs for over a year and are harassed by weaponized law-enforcement. They have reached new lows. As probably everyone has heard President Trump’s home Mar-A-Lago was raided by the corrupt FIB.
I like many other Americans, of both political parties by the way, view this as an outrage. How do I know both political parties? Because Arizona state Senator Wendy Rogers posted on GAB that she was hearing from Demoncrats that are, while not equally appalled, are appalled none the less.
No one likes where this country is headed under the Biden crime junta. It is obvious that a vote for a Demoncrat brings a weaponized IRS. 87,000 new IRS agents, nothing for the border or military mind you, but to go after the middle class that elected Donald J. Trump? 87,000 new IRS agents. The total budget for the border patrol is less than just the increase in what the IRS is getting.
So remember that meme that was popular awhile back?
They’re after YOU
Yep, guess they will be.
But first, they have to take out the Donald.
And so the corrupt Biden, Garland and Wray have descended into 3rd world banana republic tactics.
They raided Mar-A-Lago.
The excuse was some documents that had been packed up by the GSA. Why do I say excuse? Because the corrupt FIB was just there in June when the Trumps were there and were in the room where they are kept locked up for several hours with the President’s lawyers and went through them. President Trump even stopped by to say hello. But now that the Trumps are in NJ, they find it necessary to “raid” his home.
The Post has learned that the search warrant used by the FBI to enter the palatial Palm Beach property focused solely on presidential records and evidence of classified information being stored there.
….
The raid by over 30 plain clothes agents from the Southern District of Florida and the FBI’s Washington Field Office extended through the Trump family’s entire 3,000-square-foot private quarters, as well as to a separate office and safe, and a locked basement storage room in which 15 cardboard boxes of material from the White House were stored.
Interesting. The Washington field office. That’s where the lead agent that was in charge of the fake Whitmer kidnapping was promoted to. He’s now in charge of the Washington office. This came out in Sen. Ted Cruz’s grilling of the corrupt Chris Wray. Now I’ve heard theories that Merrick Garland has his panties in a knot because he blames the right for being denied his place on the Supreme Court. Maybe, I don’t know. But I do find it interesting that about 5 days after it comes out the corrupt agent in charge of the Detroit field office and the Whitmer kidnapping is now the corrupt agent in charge of the Washington office and suddenly we have a corrupt raid on President Trump, and Melania’s wardrobe I might add. They think presidential records are kept in her ball gowns? If I were Melania I’d have the whole place fumigated.
Wray admits to Ted Cruz that the FBI special agent in charge of the Detroit field office during the Whitmer kidnapping debacle is now in charge of the DC field office during the J6 investigation. pic.twitter.com/DUsXbBX0Vt
But back to our raid, the President’s lawyers were forced to stay outside, so who knows what that wiretapping bunch planted. And they were very arrogant as they went places they weren’t allowed to be per the warrant.
Another group of agents, including a professional safe cracker, moved to a separate part of the enormous 1924 Spanish stucco building to search Trump’s office and safe.
The demeanor of the three DOJ lawyers who accompanied the FBI was described by one eyewitness as “arrogant,” and they repeatedly told Trump representatives: “We have full access to everything. We can go everywhere.”
So where did the warrant come from? Who signed off on it? Oh, Jeffrey Epstein’s lawyer!
(Bruce)Reinhart was a senior prosecutor in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida during the prosecution of late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Shortly after a non-prosecution agreement was reached with Epstein, who pleaded guilty to a single state-level charge in exchange for not being prosecuted by federal officials, Reinhart “joined Epstein’s payroll,” according to documents entered by lawyers for women Epstein allegedly abused.
Reinhart, a criminal defense attorney at the time, represented “numerous Epstein employees and pilots” in civil cases filed against Epstein by alleged victims, including Epstein’s housekeeper Louella Ruboyo and pilot Larry Morrison.
“On information and belief, Reinhart’s representation of these individuals was paid, directly or indirectly, by Epstein,” one document says. “Such representations are in contravention of Justice Department regulations and Florida bar rules. Such representations also give, at least, the improper appearance that Reinhart may have attempted to curry with Epstein and then reap his reward through favorable employment.”
Reinhart responded with a motion for sanctions, saying the documents contained “unfounded factual and legal accusations.” He asked for leave to intervene in the case.
But the FIB always fights for “truth, justice and the American way!” Right?
As Jack Posobiec, political commentator and former intelligence officer, points out in his podcast that back in the Viet Nam era no one trusted the FIB and the government. We have a national security state in charge of our government. The FIB & CIA are the 4th branch, the operations arm of the administrative state. Then he gave a list. It’s worth listening to the podcast. They lied about a lot. Comey, Mueller and many other familiar names have been corrupt for a long time. The “Did you know” part is quite interesting. This episode was called American Stasi.
But let’s see, what happened with some people it sure seems should have been investigated?
You would think that the FIB would have a clue how the normal average American would feel about seeing their country turned into a banana republic by a corrupt justice department. You would think that Merrick Garland would have a clue, but hey his son-in-law makes his money selling Critical Race Theory materials to schools and he sicced the FIB on parents calling them terrorists and he got away with that, so guess he’s not worried. And I don’t think they have a clue.
The message is clear. The government under Democrats hates us, and they will sic federal agencies on Americans who dare to defy the parameters and agenda set by the political class. If half the nation doesn’t feel that justice is blind, that federal law enforcement agencies are professional and impartial, and that law and order is now dependent on party affiliation, then the stability of our system could be placed in doubt. Democrats have set us on a path toward civil war if they continue with this campaign of overreach under Biden
And now the corrupt BATFE is getting in on the act.
But as the letter notes, the ATF is demanding contact information for delayed NICS checks.
For the uninitiated, this may make perfect sense. After all, we don’t know if those delayed checks are criminals trying to buy guns or not.
Except, that’s literally not how the law works. A delayed background check is supposed to be treated as a passed check. Further, according to a couple of gun store owners and employees I’ve spoken with, something like 95 percent, at a minimum, of all delayed NICS checks are people with no criminal history. The system just created a delay for some unfathomable reason.
This is bad! The whole DOJ is corrupt. But, I have a practical solution to these problems and more!
Our southern border is a hot mess. When Republicans take control of the house and senate in January all the new IRS agents, who are very well armed, are going to be sent to the border to help secure it. All 87,000 of them. The FIB and the ATF are going to be disbanded in the current form. But I don’t want the good people that have been held hostage by the corruption at the top to be un-employed in the Biden “recovery”. Nope, they will now be tasked with finding all the illegal immigrants in our country. They’re trained for that, right? They will round them up and ship them back to their country of origin. This will save our country millions of dollars! And lastly, fire Merrick Garland, Chris Wray and Steven Dettelbach. Now that will be money well saved, and from the firing of those three we give the border patrol bonuses! See! There are solutions! Follow me for more practical, money saving budgeting ideas.
So the very confused FIB has put out a bulletin designating certain patriotic symbols and people as indications of “Domestic Terrorism”.
This is far from the first time law enforcement has decided normal patriotic sayings or symbols are a “threat to democracy”, a favorite phrase of the communist Demoncratic party. Anything that doesn’t advance the cause of Communism in their evaluation is a “threat to our democracy”. Apparently the leftist loons never learned in school that we are a Constitutional Republic. A rule of law, not mob rule, which is why they hate the Constitution, among other reasons.
On February 20, 2009, the State of Missouri, via its Department of Public Safety, issued what was called “MIAC Strategic Report: The Modern Militia Movement.” In this report, people who supported Presidential candidates Ron Paul, Bob Barr, and yours truly were referenced as being connected to potentially dangerous “militia members.” But the inference did not stop there. People of conservative ideology were also identified in the State Police report as being potentially dangerous. People who held political opinions opposing abortion, illegal immigration, the New World Order, the North American Union, the Income Tax, the U.N., etc., were profiled in the MIAC report.
Interestingly enough, no left-leaning political ideologies were identified. No Islamic extremists. No environmental extremists. Only people holding “conservative” or “right-wing” philosophies were identified in the MIAC report.
The MIAC report was categorized as “Unclassified/Law Enforcement Sensitive,” meaning the report was intended for law enforcement personnel only. Fortunately, an unidentified (for obvious reasons) Missouri law enforcement officer, who was extremely disturbed by this report, sent a copy to nationally syndicated radio talk show host Alex Jones. Of course, Jones immediately “blew the whistle” on the story. This was on March 11.
Now you know one of the reasons they hate Alex Jones so much. The difference now is while the media followed Jones and brought it out, now it would get the Hunter Xiden treatment. Shhhhhhh.
If we can continue to probe the details of the MIAC report, I am absolutely convinced we will find that this report actually originates with Morris Dees and his ultra-liberal Southern Poverty Law Center. And if my hunch (a very educated hunch, I might add) is correct, it means that the DHS and various State police agencies around the country are allowing a left-wing special interest group to use them to harass, intimidate, and profile people with conservative political opinions.
But now the left-wing special interest group going after conservatives is…the weaponized FIB.
These include such fringe thoughts as the Second Amendment, that shooting unarmed women by a cop who previously left his duty weapon in a bathroom on the toilet is a bad thing. Ashli Babbit. That shooting an unarmed woman holding her baby, Vickie Weaver, is a evil thing. That the flag Betsy Ross labored over is “extremist”. Threepers and Oathkeepers who have broken no laws and have yet to burn down a city are also vilified. As is the Gadsden flag, the Gonzales Battle flag, probably the modern American flag, dang with the FIB probably the only flag they don’t consider “extremist” is the Antifa flag or the Chinese Communist Party flag. While Antifa has burned down cities and decimated neighborhoods they aren’t a violent extremist group according to the FIB. Odd that, isn’t it?
Also considered threats are any mention of the Second Amendment, of course, and the Liberty Tree, and Revolutionary war soldier pictures. No word if the serfs will be allowed to watch “The Patriot” next Independence Day. No word if we’re allowed to use the phrase “Independence Day” yet either.
“Also on this list is the Gadsden flag as a symbol of violent extremism,” Cruz continued. “Now, the State of Virginia has a license plate with the Gadsden flag — as do many other states,” he said. “I think people would be astonished to find that having that license plate, the FBI indicates that you’re a violent extremist.”
“As a Texan, I was particularly struck,” Cruz added, “by the Gonzales Battle Flag — ‘Come and Take It’ — as indicative of being a violent extremist militia. Well, I will self-report right now that every day in the Senate I wear my boots that have the Gonzalez Battle Flag on the back,” Cruz declared, smacking his boot on the dais.
“Director Wray, what are y’all doing?” Cruz asked. “This makes no sense.”
Cruz ended his statement by asking Wray whether he agreed with the FBI guidance highlighting patriotic, historic American symbols with extremist violence, but the FBI Director could only offer that he wasn’t “familiar” with the document.
Truth be told Sen. Cruz probably should have thrown the boot at Wray, but considering what those boots probably cost I completely forgive him.
And just like Nixon and the head of the Missouri Highway Patrol, useless Wray said he wasn’t familiar with the document. Probably spending so much time looking for Hunter Xiden’s missing laptop no doubt.
And just like was pointed out in the column about the MIAC report:
But Cruz again took Wray to task, pointing out that the FBI chose not to “include things like Antifa… things like Black Lives Matter” and instead “identify patriotic Americans as suspect.”
I have two solutions to this predicament. Wray needs to be fired, at once and the FIB needs to be disbanded. The funds saved could be better used by local law enforcement to hire and train officers, and heaven knows the taxpayers could use the break. We have millions of illegal aliens to support that the FIB is not the least concerned about. But one thing is clear, the FIB is threatened by Patriotic Women, poor Betsy!
It seems the Biden junta weaponized alphabet agencies are getting frisky. It seems they feel America is no longer a country ruled by laws but by dictatorial fiat, so they want to prove themselves as big a hero as Lila Morris the DC cop who beat an unconscious Roseanne Boyland to death and was then declared a “hero”. Hmph, must be handing that title out in crackerjacks now like they did Barry Sotero’s “Nobel Peace Prize”, snort, giggle, chuckle guffaw.
So if you ever wondered why states like Missouri passed a Second Amendment Preservation Act that prevents local law enforcement agencies from assisting federal agencies one only needs take a look at some recent activity. I can’t help it if a Senatorial candidate (Greitens) objects to the SAPA because it prevents local law enforcement being roped into the federal abuse of citizens. But hey, it took the guy five years to figure out being a Young Global leader in the WEF was a bad thing, so looking down the road may not be his strong suit.
For evidence I offer Delaware. Oh were you thinking the ATF didn’t have a firearm registry?
In Missouri, the useless biased hack known as Chris Wray decided he would “audit” the records of Missouri concealed carry holders. The Attorney General Eric Schmitt nicely told him to go pound sand. Delicious!! You’ll enjoy reading it.
A Washington state sheriff recently advised residents in his county that if agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) come to their homes without a search warrant asking to inspect their firearms, they can tell them to leave their property.
Klickitat County Sheriff Bob Songer said in a press statement on Friday that agents are “making surprise home visits of persons who have purchased two or more firearms at one time. To my knowledge, these ATF visits have not occurred in Washington State yet.”
Sheriff Songer told The Washington Times he became concerned about the Second Amendment rights of the residents of Klickitat County after viewing a doorbell video that showed a firearms owner who ATF agents coerced, without a warrant, to inspect his firearms.
Damned right it’s illegal. The “no registry/database” was the “compromise” that FOPA gave us when we lost new machine guns.
Here’s the thing, the alphabet agencies think they are above the law. The law doesn’t apply to them. They enjoy inflicting fear and pain on innocent citizens but when it comes to them…..well then. I found this very enlightening. The behavior of the agent is despicable, he was terrorizing an innocent woman at home with her children. I believe it was the landlord that came over and thanked the police.
The video is 15:38 long, and probably worth watching every bit of it. The comments under the video are pretty interesting as well. They do go talk to the scared woman who called the police in the first place.
In my humble opinion this is how all these interactions should be handled. Poor lady, poor kids. But rockin’ awesome police officers standing up for the scared innocent citizens.
The alphabets, they do love their power.
With the betrayal of Joe Manchin, again, friends don’t ever vote Demoncrat, there are going to be some changes. Even if they say they’re moderate, or support ________ they will have to tow the Demoncrat party line. Which these days is somewhere around Stalin on the scale. But back to the changes, people making under $200,000 a year are going to have a tiny little increase in their taxes despite the liar in chief’s promises.
The energy and health care deal from Sens. Joe Manchin and Chuck Schumer would raise taxes on millions of Americans earning less than $400,000 annually, Senate Republicans say, citing nonpartisan data.
The Congressional Joint Committee on Taxation found that taxes would jump by $16.7 billion on American taxpayers making less than $200,000 in 2023 and raise another $14.1 billion on taxpayers who make between $200,000 and $500,000.
During the 10-year window, the average tax rate would go up for most income categories, the Senate GOP said, citing the data from the joint committee. And by 2031, new energy credits and subsidies would have people earning less than $400,000 pay as much as two-thirds of the additional tax revenue collected that year, the release said.
WOWZA! That’s a lot of money! Now regular citizens when their household spending increase due to a fraudulent communist being placed in office who issues a lot of illegal executive orders, well they have to trim the budget somewhere else. Like, less eating out, no movies, maybe even cut off the cable #FakeNews to make ends meet. So since we are now supporting millions of illegal aliens, with more pouring across the boarder daily I think the federal government needs to trim their burden on the taxpayer…now where oh where I wonder could we trim. Would we miss the alphabets if the went away? Would it be so bad if parents could go to school board meeting unmolested? If law abiding citizens could feel secure in their homes? Wouldn’t it be nice if someone at the door who said they were Avon calling, really was Avon? If Hunter Biden knew there wasn’t anyone covering for him and “the big guy” any longer? Hmm, maybe just leave law-enforcement to the local professional officers that answer to their citizens? I dunno, but it’s a thought. Don’t like that one? Ok, hows about every single politician or un-elected bureaucrat (CDC I’m looking at you) that pushes gun control no longer has tax payer funded security? They get to live like the little people they are trying to deprive of their most effective self-defense tool? Certainly that should save some money! And with the Biden junta spending more money in Ukraine, who will send it back to corrupt politicians, we need to start these effective cost cutting measures at once! No time to waste! Like yesterday! Follow me for more simple, practical budgeting tips…
But the upshot, say no to tyranny. Very catchy tune by the way!
Sometimes I see things as related, putting puzzle pieces together if you will, or perhaps its just a common thread, or threat as the case may be. You might want to grab some coffee, hopefully this won’t be boring, but it is long.
In this case, it’s the directions from which the left together with the pharmaceutical industry attacks the mind. In some cases they work together, in some separately, sometimes for a joint purpose, sometimes the purpose is different, but what it has in common is attacks on the mind.
Despite not having adequate data, Birx pushed ahead with her plans to convince Trump and his advisors to go along with her mitigation plans. She writes that in March 2020, she met with the President, and her plan was to obfuscate her intentions for economic shutdowns, knowing that Trump was wary of anything that would tank the economy he had worked so hard to build.
“I couldn’t do anything that would reveal my true intention,” she writes, “to use the travel ban as one brick in the construction of a larger wall of protective measures we needed to enact very soon.” Trump’s team was more concerned about the impacts and potential for loss of lives to Americans of shutting society down. She blasts the administration for their concerns over the economy, concerns which have played out in real time to the point where the country could be facing devastating impacts, as is the globe.
We use mandates because we don’t want to explain. And she lies some more. Doesn’t she come across kindly and sincere? I’ve got a lot of information on the effectiveness of masks and the harms they cause. She’s lying.
But she’s proud she lied, she writes about it in her book
From Deborah Birx’s own hand.
But this isn’t just about the WuFlu debacle and it’s villains, it’s about how they accomplished what they did. I know someone who every time you attempted to give them information, data from another country, or anything scientific would get angry and chirp back “That’s a FOX news talking point”. Which is of course silly, as I don’t have cable, and she never watches FOX. But the idiocy of this never crossed the mind. I mentioned it to my cousin’s wife when we were chatting one day and she nailed it in one. She’s brainwashed. When they can’t form an argument, and can only respond with a phrase it’s a sign of brainwashing. This is someone I wouldn’t have thought would be all that easy to control that way, and I would have been wrong. She still believes the shots are 100% safe and effective, and masking will keep you safe. Those are her sincerely held religious beliefs.
I recently heard a pretty knowledgeable man, Michael Yon, a war correspondant, give a few books he recommended for reading, by everyone. One of them was The Rape Of The Mind by Joost A.M. Merloo 1956. He said if more people had read that book they could never have gotten away with the Covid charade. People would have seen through it. He said if you read that book, it will be much harder to gain control over your mind. SOLD! I haven’t finished it yet, but as I started reading what hit me was January 6th POWs. I’ve written about January 6th before, WHEN A LIE IS THE FIB and the inhumane conditions our prisoners are being subjected to. I thought the Demoncrats and the prison officials were just sadistic asses, but nope, because nothing is too inhumane when it comes to their quest for power. This includes human examples of fecal matter Liz Cheney of the war monger clan and Adam Kinzinger.
From Merloo
The Enforced Confession
During the Korean War, an officer of the United States Marine Corps, Colonel Frank H. Schwable, was taken prisoner by the Chinese Communists. After months of intense psychological pressure and physical degradation, he signed a well-documented “confession” that the United States was carrying on bacteriological warfare against the enemy. The confession named names, cited missions, described meetings and strategy conferences. This was a tremendously valuable propaganda tool for the totalitarians. They cabled the news all over the world: “The United States of America is fighting the peace loving people of China by dropping bombs loaded with disease spreading bacteria, in violation of international law.”
After his repatriation, Colonel Schwable issued a sworn statement repudiating his confession, and describing his long months of imprisonment. Later, he was brought before a military court of inquiry. He testified in his own defense before that court: “I was never convinced in my own mind that we in the First Marine Air Wing had used bug warfare. I knew we hadn’t, but the rest of it was real to me the conferences, the planes, and how they would go about their missions.”
“The words were mine,” the Colonel continued, “but the thoughts were theirs. That is the hardest thing I have to explain: how a man can sit down and write something he knows is false, and yet, to sense it, to feel it, to make it seem real.”
This is the way Dr. Charles W. Mayo, a leading American physician and government representative, explained brainwashing in an official statement before the United Nations: “…the tortures used…although they include many brutal physical injuries, are not like the medieval torture of the rack and the thumb screw. They are subtler, more prolonged, and intended to be more terrible in their effect. They are calculated to disintegrate the mind of an intelligent victim, to distort his sense of values, to a point where he will not simply cry out ‘I did it!’ but will become a seemingly willing accomplice to the complete disintegration of his integrity and the production of an elaborate fiction.”
The Schwable case is but one example of a defenceless prisoner being compelled to tell a big lie. If we are to survive as free men, we must face up to this problem of politically inspired mental coercion, with all its ramifications.
….
As more and more cases of thought control, brainwashing, and mental coercion were disclosed – Cardinal Mindszenty, Colonel Schwable, Robert Vogeler, and others – his interest grew. It was Dr. Meerloo who coined the word menticide, the killing of the spirit, for this peculiar crime.
What they are doing in the DC gulag is the same as the N. Koreans, the N. Viet Nam, the nazis and the communists. It’s torture and it’s done in a certain way to get the results they wanted. Anthony Fauxci’s student Deborah Birx did the same thing to American citizens with her lockdowns using rigged data. People were kept in close to solitary confinement, denied support systems of religious services, family gatherings and often work, if their job was deemed not to be essential. While I grant these days family gatherings might fall under the heading of torture themselves, that too is a result of Fauxci and Birx and their lies and deceptions to President Trump and the American people. America’s very own little Mengele twins with their experiments.
“I had never been to a protest event before the 2020 presidential election,” one man told Klepper. “I had become completely consumed. It took over my life. For three months, I slept in my car. I traveled from rally to rally, from #StopTheSteal event to #StopTheSteal event, for three months, sleeping in my car, going to see the evidence. And then I had to recover. I had PTSD. So, it took me a long time to find myself again. I feel like I just got out of a cult.”
On Tuesday, Republican Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Louie Gohmert, Matt Gaetz and Paul Gosar gave some insight into the horrific conditions Jan. 6 prisoners are allegedly being subjected to.
Greene said the prisoners are held in solitary confinement for 22 to 23 hours a day, according to the Post Millennial. She said prisoners with Celiac disease are getting sick because the only food they are offered contains gluten.
Other prisoners were forced to denounce former President Donald Trump and told that “their views are the views of cult members,” Greene said.
Apparently there are only four Republicans in all of the legislative branch.
But this gets really really ugly when you find out that there has been evidence all along exonerating the Proud Boys of any wrong doing. They’ve been in prison, being tortured and denied human rights when they were innocent.
And at this point, another useless piece of human fecal matter joins the list, Chris Wray who has known all along that these men were innocent from one of his own people, and yet he has said nothing. Wray needs to be removed at once. He needed to be removed a long time ago.
It took a tragedy on America’s birthday, and the death of seven people, to demonstrate once and for all that gun control doesn’t work. Shooter Bobby Crimo bought the murder weapon himself, legally, in Illinois, a state with some of the strongest gun control laws in the country. Red flag laws didn’t stop him. There’s no reason to think they would work anywhere else.
What’s more, the city of Highland Park passed a total ban on assault rifles in 2013. Around the time, Mayor Nancy Rotering bragged: “Banning assault weapons … is one common-sense action to reduce gun violence and protect our children and our communities from potential mass violence and grief.”
….
I saw the unmistakable signs of drug abuse. Crimo was a marijuana smoker—that was obvious. You can see how, over the years, heavily smoking weed turned his skin gray and hair dull. While marijuana use can ease anxiety, PTSD, and even perform miracles for epileptics, for others it can cause psychosis.
There was more to Bobby Crimo’s decline than just dope. In addition to self-medicating, it’s a safe bet that he was on prescription drugs. Crimo was a member of an online movement called the “Sad Boys,” men who defy stereotypes and share their mental health struggles online. Most have depression.
Crimo was known to police as they had been called to his family home multiple times after he made threats of suicide and murder. These are clear signs of depression.
27 per cent of teens aged 12 to 19 are on prescription drugs, most commonly something for ADD. Over 20 years old—the age range of many white male shooters—it switches to antidepressants. The numbers increase every year, as does the percentage of young people who say they’re depressed.
….
Our country is becoming fatherless and faithless, with a teaching workforce offended by masculinity and occasionally outright hostile to the sex and race of its students. Stir in decades of reflexive pill-popping culture, and we arrive at a dangerous moment in history: The tranquilization of the American male.
The whole article is fantastic, really. So this is pharmaceutical industry contributing, and leftist policies combined.
He links the mass shootings in 53 developed countries to boys and men who lacked a father figure, and he specifically mentioned six mass shootings that have occurred in the United States in the 21st century.
“All six of those mass school shootings that have killed more than 10 people have been done by boys, and all six of them have been done by boys who have been ‘dad deprived,’ from Sandy Hook right on through to the Texas shooting,” Farrell said during a recent interview for EpochTV’s “American Thought Leaders” program.
….
He said that girls are growing up in the same environment as boys, with access to the same media, video games, and guns and dealing with the same mental health issues, but they aren’t committing any of the shootings.
This is the result of leftist policies. Remember the Julia movie put out by Barry Sotero to showcase the wonder of the failed social/medical experiment called “obamacare”? Men aren’t needed. Fathers aren’t needed in the leftist world.
The boys that committed these mass shootings at schools suffered from not having a caring, strong male role model. In addition to that, boys are often told their feelings don’t matter, which leads to emotional toxicity, said Farrell.
“Boys who are fatherless, very frequently they are not likely to have that postponed gratification that emanates from boundary enforcement. Therefore they start not doing as well in school,” said Farrell.
He said he’s talked to boys in high school, and the boys said what they learn about in school when it comes to male–female issues is toxic masculinity, without any understanding of the sacrifices that males made that led to that toxicity, as well as the concept of “the patriarchy,” said Farrell.
Farrell said boys are suffering because they are being told that their masculinity is bad.
“The world was not dominated by a patriarchy. It was dominated by the need to survive, and in order to survive, both males and females were restricted in their roles,” said Farrell, adding that feminism blames men for societal problems and does not take into account the sacrifices they make for their families.
Darn skippy says the girl who,s Dad was John Wayne, Roy Rogers every other good hero all rolled into one Dad. He wasn’t perfect, but as I became an adult I realized what sacrifices both Dad and Mom made for us kids.
But the left denigrates families. Burn Loot and Murder lionized by the left originally had on their web site as one of their goals the destruction of the nuclear family. So this aspect is leftist policies as well.
Fact: At least 37 school shootings and/or school-related acts of violence have been committed by those taking or withdrawing from psychiatric drugs resulting in 175 wounded and 82 killed (in other school shootings, information about their drug use was never made public—neither confirming or refuting if they were under the influence of prescribed drugs). The most important fact about this list, is that these are only cases where the information about their psychiatric drug use was made public. (See full list below)
The below list includes individuals documented to have been under the influence of psychiatric drugs and not only includes mass shootings, but the use of knives, swords and bombs. 27 international drug regulatory agency warnings cite side effects including mania, violence, psychosis and even homicidal ideation.
In my opinion, this is the pharmaceutical industry, ever greedy for a buck, causing harm with their “safe and effective” medications with no regard to the adverse events resulting. The left happily goes along with it, I suspect partly for the big donations they get from the pharmaceutical industry and partly because it gives them fodder for their gun grabbing campaign aided by their ever willing accomplices in the corporate media.
Mass Shootings: “The Common Denominator Was Psychotropic Medication” A little over 1 minute.
While many have bought into the simplistic idea that availability of firearms is the cause of mass shootings, a number of experts have pointed out a more uncomfortable truth, which is that mass shootings are far more likely the result of how we’ve been mistreating mental illness, depression and behavioral problems
Gun control legislation has shown that law-abiding Americans who own guns are not the problem, because the more gun control laws that have been passed, the more mass shootings have occurred
97.8 percent of mass shootings occur in “gun-free zones,” as the perpetrators know legally armed citizens won’t be there to stop them
Depression per se rarely results in violence. Only after antidepressants became commonplace did mass shootings really take off, and many mass shooters have been shown to be on antidepressants
Antidepressants, especially selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), are well-known for their ability to cause suicidal and homicidal ideation and violence
This whole article makes it abundantly clear to me at least, that far more than guns being responsible for mass shootings, the pharmaceutical industry and their greed is.
As Jeff Snyder put it in The Washington Times: ‘But to ban guns because criminals use them is to tell the innocent and law-abiding that their rights and liberties depend not on their own conduct, but on the conduct of the guilty and the lawless, and that the law will permit them to have only such rights and liberties as the lawless will allow.’”
Who paid the largest criminal fine in the U.S.? Pfizer. And when the lawsuits start for the experimental gene therapy injections, I’m sure it will be again. I’m not sure that the defense of “You can’t sue us because the government was aware of the fraud” is solid when that amount of death results. So this in another example of the pharmaceutical industry working with the left. No, I don’t think they plan this as some plot, but I think it’s more of a symbiotic relationship with both profiting from the work of the other.
There have been plenty of clues, to the future mass killers, and usually after it happens the FIB is right there to say they knew about him. Perhaps if they weren’t so busy chasing down grandmas in wheelchairs and covering up evidence that doesn’t fit with Merrick Garland’s agenda and that of his weaponized agency they could actually, you know, do something about it. Unlike the do with Antifa which is just turn them lose to commit more crimes.
Standard FIB response
I would say not only is our way of life, and our country under attack from within so are our minds, they have to break us down. I think perhaps being aware of what’s going on, and how it works could be helpful The Rape of the Mind . Do what you can to protect yourself, keep in contact with loved ones. If you have a religious community, be there. If you have hobbies, make time for yourself to enjoy them. Consider adopting a shelter pet if you are fur childless, they will pay you back in more love than you can believe. We are made in the image of G-d, he blessed us with minds with the ability to see and reason. If you’re so inclined you could send a letter of encouragement to the January 6th political prisoners perhaps it will offset some of the mental torture they are being subjected to by the US government. Where you can, find gratitude, that helps often times. We are in uncharted waters, no doubt but I believe we are not in them alone.
A couple of months ago, I noted that, historically, Dimocrats tended to avoid victim-disarmament bills during election years. And yet, for some strange reason, they felt safe pushing their Federal Firearm Licensing Act, with its troubling definition of “dealer.”
Traditionally, Dims have avoided gun people control bills when elections are coming. It’s a campaign killer (right, Duke Nukem?). Certainly the money is on the same thing being the case this cycle.
But if you have no intention of allowing fair and honest elections (again), what’s the harm in pushing a bill to license gun owners register all firearms and owners via a “may issue” federal licensing system?
A fluke perhaps. But then we got hit with the BipartisanGand-Rape Safer Communities Act: Expanded preemptively-prove-your-innocence checks, red flag laws, a very dangerous redefinition of domestic violence, and more.
Sure enough, Dim, Congress, and Presidential approval keep dropping like rocks as they push this.
Now Breitbart reports that the Dims are going to move on H.R.1808 – Assault Weapons Ban of 2021, It had been stalled in subcommittee for over a year, but suddenly with the mid-terms looming they decided that a new “assault weapon” ban is just the thing that some hundred million gun owners — and specifically the owners of 20 million “assault weapons” — inexplicably want.
Surely someone swimming in the swamp over there remembers what happened last time time they tried this. 1994: assault weapon shortly before mid-terms, Republicans took the House, Senate, and picked up ten state governor seats.
Is “gun control” really all that popular? A brand new poll, purportedly showing that things aren’t quite as bad for the Dims as everyone thinks, says otherwise.
Q15. What do you think is the MOST important problem facing the ccountry today?
Overall, just 10%. Even among Dimwitocrats, it’s only 17%. Does this sound like gun control is a winning mid-term strategy?
Or does it sound like the Dims don’t give a rat’s a** about what real, live voters want; that they know the elections are already in the bag? Some very peculiar primary outcomes suggest they do: In Georgia, one of the most unpopular men in the state — responsible for the illegal balloting in 2020 — handily and unexpectedly won his primary. And in Colorado, everyone is baffled that a director for Zuckerberg’s Dim-supporting election money machine — who polled dead last — magically won the SOS Republican primary.
If the conspiracy-minded want to view those as test runs for the mid-term fraud machine, I won’t argue with you. That the FFLA and BSCA came in on the heels of those weird primaries gives the idea some creedence, at least.
AWB of 2021 suddenly moving reinforces it.
Oh, well. Go buy your ARs and magazines while you can. I would, if I had the money.

Yep, no doubt about it, this year I keep thinking about the words of Benjamin Franklin “A Republic if you can keep it” in response to being asked what kind of government had been established for the new formed United States.
So, since I have veggie hot dogs to grill I’ve just got a few thoughts for today. Some snarky, some serious, some funny. Sort of like a family potluck.
First, encouraging words from President Puddin’ Head
Typical Biden
Let’s try that again
The founding of our nation wasn’t a joke though, men and women of valor fought very hard to give us the freedom that people are squandering and taking for granted.
The Signers of the Declaration of Independence
And because of their vision, hard work and sacrifice we, have a chance to strive to be uncommon.
The American’s Creed
But the signers knew what they were doing, they knew the formula that would be needed in the future to preserve the freedom that tyrants always seek to snatch away.
Mere peasants?Independence Day-brought to you by firearms
And I will leave you with this video of the history of the Star Spangled Banner. I didn’t get a Puffs warning, but I’m saying it might be good to have one close by.
Here’s a post from my personal blog. I wanted to share it with TZP readers. Imagine trying to explain GCA ’68, Brady Bill, Lautenberg Amendment, and the past week’s 2A shenanigans to James Madison.
246 Years Of Slippery Slope Make A Great Power Source
[…]
Have you ever been trolled and harassed on social media by some girl you dated? She’s a domestic violence offender. Twitter trolling is annoying, but it hardly seems worth depriving someone of her fundamental, constitutional, individual rights for life. Just block her.
Imagine James Madison hearing about what we’ve done to the Bill of Rights in the 21st century.
“You deprive citizens of their g-d-given right to arms for mean letters?”
