Given other historical precedent, there’s nothing wrong with our current government leaders that wouldn’t be solved far more rapidly, by simply chopping 342 of them open with tomahawks and hurling them into the Potomac river-since Boston Harbor is kinda far to toss the bodies
“…and the sad truth is that 95% of the problems we have in this country could be solved tomorrow, by noon… simply by dragging 100 people out in the street and shooting them in the fucking head.” – An anonymous US Marine.
“The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government – lest it come to dominate our lives and interests.” ― Patrick Henry
“Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth.” — Albert Einstein
“The U.S. government now poses the greatest threat to our freedoms.
More than terrorism, more than domestic extremism, more than gun violence and organized crime, even more than the perceived threat posed by any single politician, the U.S. government remains a greater menace to the life, liberty and property of its citizens than any of the so-called dangers from which the government claims to protect us.” – John W. Whitehead
“What Trump doesn’t realize, or want to recognize, is that the Jeffrey Epstein issue is not about Jeffrey Epstein, it’s about child sexual abuse. It’s about the judicial system and whether it’s taking such issues and complaints seriously enough to satisfy Trump’s supporters. It’s clear that the Democrats support child genital mutilation with enthusiasm, that they consider 3-year-olds sexual objects and condone child brides as young as 9 years old. What the majority of Trump supporters want to know from him is: does he? Trivializing Jeffrey Epstein is the same as trivializing child sexual abuse. “
“It is my hope to bring in the average weight of the Freedom Fighter’s kit to under 35 lbs. We can do this by having access to backpacking equipment that is lighter than the average military gear. Depending upon the mission, I intend to try to get the pack weight of the kit under 35lbs. I will only be talking pack weights and LBE.”
“It’s time to stop policing the world. Bring the troops home. Shut down the military bases. End the covert wars. Slash the Pentagon’s budget. The path to peace begins with a full retreat from empire.”
“If the feds can’t compel the invaders (whether they came to the US thirty years ago, or yesterday, if they have not become citizens and support the riots and resistance to ICE raids, they are invaders) to cease and desist, they are conceding territory. For the most part, I don’t care, give California to Mexico, but recognize what that means, that Texas might be next, that Oregon and Washington might be next, that New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona and Nevada might be next, then Idaho and Montana become border states to Mexico, as does Utah, Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Louisiana.”
The FBI tracks active shooting cases—where individuals attempt to kill people in public places, excluding those tied to robberies or gang violence. This study is the first to systematically compare how uniformed police and civilians with concealed handgun permits perform in stopping these attacks. Civilians with permits stopped the attacks more frequently and faced a lower risk of being killed or injured than police. Officers who intervened during the attacks were far more likely to be killed or injured than those who apprehended the attackers later.

“We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Wherever men or women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must–at that moment–become the center of the universe.”—Elie Wiesel, Nobel Peace Prize Speech
Once again we find ourselves approaching that time of year when, as George Washington and Abraham Lincoln proclaimed, we’re supposed to give thanks as a nation and as individuals for our safety and our freedoms.
But how do you give thanks for freedoms that are constantly being eroded?
How do you express gratitude for one’s safety when the perils posed by the American police state grow more treacherous by the day?
Since the Trump campaign had Robert Kennedy and Nicole Shanahan in the spotlight, and the tag of MAHA was added to MAGA,there’s renewed interest in our food supply and the healthcare industry.
Let’s face a few facts – most Americans are fat,lazy,and way out of shape. Not all of us but a significant number.
We eat ultra processed foods,drink soda by the vat, get little exercise, and take whatever the latest fad medication is to “cure” our ills.
You can do a lot to solve these problems with a little effort.
Start with exercise…
Going to a gym a few days a week isn’t going to cut it. Gym muscles don’t translate to real world muscles.
Some of us grew up baling and stacking hay in the summers, cutting and splitting firewood,mending fences, digging postholes,etc.
That builds more useful muscle than working out in a gym using machines.
You need to do exercises that simulate things like carrying an injured friend/ family member 100 yards or more.
Hike with weight in your pack, equivalent to a full pack you would carry in a real world scenario.
Find outdoor stairs,and use them with your full weight pack on.
Do push ups.
Do pull ups.
Do sit ups.
Do squats,lunges,burpees.
Walk every day – even without a ruck/ pack.
It’s definitely better if you do ruck with weight in a pack, though.
Do still hit the gym – just add the exercises that simulate real world stuff in addition to it.
There’s a great book on how to build muscle without using weights/machines.
Most of the U.S. food supply is utter garbage – even the so called “fresh produce” in most grocery stores.
Almost all of the food crops in our stores are grown using hybrid seeds,and farmed on huge corporate farms – aka – big Ag.
Meat and poultry processing is controlled by a few large corporations.
The use of hormones and antibiotics is much less than it used to be,but they are still used.
Find local farmers and ranchers,buy direct if possible, or find a local butcher who sells locally raised beef,pork,and chicken.
Grow your own vegetables…
I’m working on the overgrown hedges and the rest of overgrown shit on property.
My now wife had some medical issues,and no one took care of anything other than cutting grass for 7 years. Got the worst of it last summer. Still got more to go, ankle surgery slowed me down.
Anyhow – point is – you don’t need a lot of land to grow veggies.
Anything you grow is healthier.
If you can’t grow a lot – find a local farmers market, buy a lot, and can it. Canning is not hard to do.
The crap sold in our stores does not have the nutritional value that growing your own veggies does. It’s grown in depleted soil,and only grows via heavy use of fertilizers.
When you,or a good local farmer grows veggies – they contain way more nutrients because they are not grown in depleted soil. They are grown in soil that has natural fertilizers added – such as compost,and composted manure.
This increases the amount of nutrients by a lot. Plus , the veggies just taste better.
Can them,and you have veggies that are actually nutritious.
If you live somewhere where you can have chickens – do it. Aside from the much healthier eggs,chicken manure is great natural fertilizer. It does need to be composted for a year before use – if not,it will burn your plants. I used straw in the chicken coop so manure was mixed with straw. Added leaves in fall and veggie scraps,coffee grounds,and egg shells regularly. No need for chemical fertilizers.
I use grow bags here, last place I lived, I tilled the garden. Added chicken manure in fall. Spread a layer across the garden, then tilled it in in the spring. Got really great harvests that way.
Lose the seed oils in your diet. Use beef tallow, butter, lard, coconut oil, olive oil is okay as well.
Don’t use margarine, or Crisco.
The only seed oil I use,and use sparingly is peanut oil for deep frying. Small amounts aren’t going to hurt you health wise.
Better to deep fry in beef tallow though.
It’s the amount of seed oils in our food supply – they’re in far too many things.
Bake your own bread. It’s not hard,and tastes way better. Plus none of the chemical preservatives/ dough conditioners are in it.
Doing these things will greatly improve your health.
Cut out soda,juices with added sugar,and as much processed food as possible.
Start doing what you can – you’ll feel a lot better , have more energy, and fewer aches and pains.
