American Revolution 2.0
Elites around the world are crying because President Trump destroyed their (New) World Order. Make sure to celebrate 45 - 47's restoration of America's Independence, and freedom around the world, by attending the historic 17-day Freedom 250 - the Great American State Fair June 25 – July 10, 2026 in Washington DC.
Q has reminded us repeatedly that together, we are strong. As the false "narrative" is destroyed and the divisive machinery put in place by the Deep State fails, the fact that patriotism has no skin color or political party is exposed for all to see.

Or, do they represent themselves (in some form)?
Mental Enslavement.
The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding ‘mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of ‘group-think’), but, more importantly, aid in the construction of a vehicle (a ‘ship’) that provides the scattered (‘free thinkers’) with a ‘starter’ new social-networking platform which allows for freedom of thought, expression, and patriotism or national pride (the feeling of love, devotion and sense of attachment to a homeland and alliance with other citizens who share the same sentiment).
When ‘non-dogmatic’ information becomes FREE & TRANSPARENT it becomes a threat to those who attempt to control the narrative and/or the stable.
When you are awake, you stand on the outside of the stable (‘group-think’ collective), and have ‘free thought’.
"Free thought" is a philosophical viewpoint which holds that positions regarding truth should be formed on the basis of logic, reason, and empiricism, rather than authority, tradition, revelation, or dogma.
When you are awake, you are able to clearly see.
The choice is yours, and yours alone.
Trust and put faith in yourself.
You are not alone and you are not in the minority.
Difficult truths will soon see the light of day.

In the battle between those who strip us our constitutional rights, we can't afford to let false divisions separate us any longer. We, and our country, will be forever made stronger by diligently seeking the truth, independence and freedom of thought.

Easiest States to Buy a Gun:
The Best States for Gun Buyers in 2026
https://ammo.com/research/easiest-states-to-buy-a-gun
Excerpt:
Report Highlights: Three quarters of states in the U.S. do not impose bureaucratic hurdles, permits to purchase, or unnecessary restrictions on gun owners.
West Virginia, Montana, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Idaho, Tennessee, Missouri, Arkansas, Georgia, and Kentucky are the easiest states in which to buy a gun.
West Virginia does not apply sales tax to firearms, while Montana and New Hampshire have no state sales tax.
Thirty-six states do not require a permit to purchase a long gun or handgun.
Methodology
Some states make it harder for civilians to purchase firearms than others. Although federal statutes apply to all Federal Firearms License (FFL) dealers, state laws regarding private sales vary.
To determine which states make it easiest to buy a gun, we determined the following:
States with no permit to purchase
States with no background checks for private sales
States with no waiting periods on firearm purchases
States with sales tax exemptions for firearms and ammunition
States that allow concealed carry permit holders to purchase firearms without a NICS background check
And considered:
Minimum age to purchase firearms by state
Concealed and open carry legislation by state
Note that federal laws apply to all firearm sales, including private transactions. Per federal law, it is illegal to sell a firearm to a “prohibited person” (e.g., a fugitive from justice, illegal alien, or unlawful user of any controlled substance). Certain firearms are regulated under the National Firearms Act (NFA) and require an approved tax stamp. Furthermore, interstate sales are generally prohibited without involvement by an FFL dealer.

The Illusion of Tax Relief In Miami-Dade County
https://miamiindependent.com/politics/2026/05/11/the-illusion-of-tax-relief-in-miami-dade-county/
Excerpt:
In Miami-Dade County, tax relief has become something to celebrate first and question later. Any reduction tied to homestead taxes is framed as a win, a sign that government is finally easing the burden on homeowners. But that celebration rests on a convenient omission. When revenue disappears, obligations do not.
Local governments still fund infrastructure, public safety, education and social services. Cutting one stream of revenue does not eliminate those responsibilities. It simply shifts the burden elsewhere, often in ways that are less visible and far more difficult for taxpayers to track. In Miami-Dade County, that shift is not hypothetical. It is already built into the system.
Florida has aggressively expanded charter schools while preserving the same local property tax structure that funds traditional government-operated public education. School boards continue to collect taxes from homeowners, including those with homestead protections. But those funds no longer support a single, locally-governed system. Under Florida law, public school districts are required to share certain capital outlay funds with charter schools (Fla. Stat. § 1013.62).
The result is a structural contradiction: taxation remains local and mandatory, while control over how those funds are used becomes increasingly fragmented.
For taxpayers, especially older homeowners on fixed incomes, the obligation does not change. They continue paying into a system that has evolved beyond what many originally understood it to be. This is not a reduction in taxation. It is a redistribution of taxation.
.....Miami-Dade County has seen this pattern before......The Miami-Dade County Homeless Trust, for example, established in 1994, is funded through a dedicated food and beverage tax to address homelessness. It is often cited as a national model, and its mission is difficult to oppose. But like many dedicated funding streams, it operates with a level of insulation that reduces ongoing public scrutiny.
The same dynamic applies to the half-penny transportation surtax approved by voters in 2002 under the People’s Transportation Plan. The tax was sold as a transformative investment in mass transit, including major Metrorail expansion. More than two decades later, the surtax remains in effect, generating substantial revenue, while many of the most ambitious transit expansions originally presented to voters have not materialized as envisioned.
The tax persists. The expectations have shifted. This is the broader pattern: create a tax, tie it to a widely supported goal, and allow it to become permanent.
.....Reporting may exist, but transparency is not simply about publishing numbers. It requires clear, outcome-based evaluation of whether spending achieves measurable results.
Without that, even well-intentioned programs risk drifting into inefficiency. Individually, each of these funding systems can be justified:
1. Property taxes support education.
2. Dedicated levies fund children’s services.
3. Targeted taxes address homelessness.
4. Sales surtaxes fund transportation.
Together, however, they create a layered structure of taxation that is rarely discussed as a whole.
Homeowners in Miami-Dade County are not simply paying less because one category of tax is reduced. They are paying into multiple overlapping systems, each protected by its own political and legal framework.
For retirees and residents on fixed incomes, that is not a policy detail. It is a financial reality......When one tax is reduced while others remain intact or expand, the result is not relief. It is reconfiguration......
.....Miami-Dade County taxpayers deserve better than selective transparency. They deserve clear answers about how overlapping tax systems interact, what measurable outcomes justify continued funding, and who is accountable when those outcomes fall short.
***************************
Though this is about Miami-Dade County, replace it with any city, county in the U.S. and the same thing applies relating to multi-layered taxes for projects that have ended, never started or whose outcomes do not fulfill the reason for the tax.

🚨 BREAKING: The FBI is offering a $200,000 reward for information leading to the apprehension and prosecution of Monica Witt, a former U.S. service member and counterintelligence agent accused of spying for Iran.
She intentionally provided information endangering U.S. personnel and their families stationed abroad, and conducted research on behalf of the Iranian regime to allow them to target her former colleagues in the U.S. government.
