https://youtu.be/aAi5FHSkUAQ?si=eJNnBb5ceQatnAqiRusanda Panfili (violin) and Tina Guo (cello) just kill it here. They experience every note they play at a level at which we can only guess. The last 5 minutes of The Da Vinci Code as linked below are a cinematic masterpiece. Combined with Zimmer's otherworldly composition, it frames the sudden dawn of understanding, of revelation. It is the triumph of intellect and reason, of faith and spirit distilled and channeled into one stunning and moving realization. Those of you who have read the book and seen the movie know what I'm talking about. Even moreso if you've read Holy...

Do You Dare Even Look? — Forecast 2024“I’ve also lost patience with the Sharia of the political left taking over the entire system.” — David Collum Historians of the future, flash-frying peccary testicles and mesquite pods over their campfires, will wonder at how the archetypal Shining City on a Hill of America’s storied yesteryear got transformed into the roach motel that our country has become on the threshold of 2024 CE. Will they be as stupidly bewildered as, in our time, the faculty at Harvard, the editors of The New York Times, or the directorate of the CDC? Or will...

Patriotism? To What? I wish more people could see the United States Government for what it really is, a brutal organization seeking every means of stepping on one’s neck while they rip the wallet from their back pocket. What method of thuggery have they refused to utilize? A SWAT team descending on a local preacher or common welder who participated in a protest is not police work or law enforcement, it’s terrorism. It’s not fear of the preacher or common welder that dictates their actions, but the sheer terror they might strike into the hearts of patriots that they strive...

There Is No Peaceful Solution I hate to break it to you, but...As most of us are surely aware by now, the fermenting demographic troubles in Ireland finally boiled over last week in a flurry of rioting. The proximate cause was an Algerian immigrant who went on a stabbing spree against a woman and several children (only the latest in a series of this type of thing by Ireland’s growing foreign-born population). The deeper cause, of course, is the systematic set of policies enacted by globalist, transnational, mostly foreign “elites” who have ruled Ireland for over a decade to the...

The Magic Moment“This is in my opinion, the worst thing that’s ever happened to our country in my lifetime in the world, and the government’s role cannot be denied,” — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on C-19-Vaxx History is a trickster. It unfolds emergently with uncanny creativity, often blindsiding humanity with the unanticipated consequences and non-linear outcomes of previous unfoldings. So, here we are now in a Second Civil War. Really? “Between whom?” you might ask. Between truth and untruth. Between a sociopathic bureaucratic blob steeped in lies and a citizenry obliged to live and die by the blob’s lies. Case-in-point:...

America and the Fourth Political TheoryThere is no progression from the founding of the United States. Every step away from the founding principles of individual rights and freedom is not a progression, it is a degradation. The mistake that so many people have made is to believe that there has to be some form of updating the founding principles in order to move forward, but all of it goes backward. In one sense there is the recognition that the nation has modernized, but what it has done is drift backwards, towards the fiefdoms of Britain, the Lords and Commoners. America,...

Coalesce or DieI caught a couple of clips the other day of some of the big podcasters or candidates and their counterparts on the other side of the spectrum. What became apparent from the beginning was the fundamental misunderstanding of who and what Trump is. Now, that seems ridiculous given the amount of time that Trump has been in front of the cameras, the near hysteria with which his every utterance is screamed across the internet, both positive and negative, but it seems true. I know people don’t want to hear about politics, especially at this stage, but this is...

The Late Hour of Our RepublicI am compelled by the late hour of our republic to recognize how far we have come and how far we have slipped. After centuries of rising from a mere rabble of farmers and shopkeepers, homemakers and nurses to one of the most powerful and wealthy nations on earth, it took next to no time to fall amongst the casualties of broken empires. The end of the United States has already been accomplished, it’s just a matter now of how it unfolds. Those in the Executive branch of government have already committed the ultimate treason,...

A Time of LawlessnessVery soon the kinetic aspect of WWIII will kick off and the international entanglements of the Biden Administration will become obviously treasonous. It might not even take the actual entry of the war to mark it. As soon as the Israeli ground attack starts, the United States will come apart from within by the recently demonstrated Palestinian forces already here, brought in over the past two years of open borders. If not them, some other hostile forces. The U.S. is weak in every way one wants to measure it, except in its domestic fighting forces that are...

Childish and Criminally StupidWhile I believe that WWIII has started, the kinetic aspect is poised to topple over the edge of speculation into reality. Consider all that that means. All of the nation’s resources will have to be dedicated to that one purpose, to repel attacks and defend the homeland. This is not a foreign war as such, because this one will be partially fought here, on this soil. Politicians ensured that future with their nonsensical foreign policy of funding terrorist nations with billions both before and after Trump. Internally, the politicians that vote on policies are easily manipulated by...

They Are That Evil We have plenty of treason. It isn’t hidden. It isn’t even debated. The fact of it is recognized, but what is lacking is a will to engage that treason with consequences. Who would do it? The average person on the street sees it, recognizes it as such, but they are and have been indoctrinated in the rule of law, so they expect that out of the hundreds of thousands employed in law enforcement that the law would be enforced. Why does that seem so irrational? No one with a brain and the ability to do math...

TRUTHThere are momentous events taking place right now. A sense of danger permeates the air one breathes. A seemingly out-of-control government presents an existential threat friend and foe alike. Elections mean nothing and they don’t care what the majority wants, because the vast, vast majority want secure and legitimate elections. They want laws to be enforced, especially the laws that prevent foreign enemies and convicted felons from flooding the nation, taking the advantages of being a citizen without being one and more often, getting benefits that are not available to the actual, legal citizens. They want their children to be...

The Tyranny of AuthorityAs they reinstate mask mandates at colleges and at TSA, one really must recognize that everything they told us before has been proven a lie. Everything you were told about masks, about vaccines, about safety, about mandates were all BS, all of it. Some of us knew that immediately, could smell the rat. A lot didn’t, many fell for some part of it, others for all of it and some just did it to get along without making waves. Well, this is the result of being afraid to rock the boat. Without any evidence, without any medical...

Our Nightmare is Their Utopia The United States is just waiting on divorce papers, the separation is already here. In the part of this nation controlled by communists like Antifa and BLM a defense attorney can openly declare herself to be a member of Antifa and (during a civil suit between Antifa and longtime Antifa nemesis Andy Ngo) tell the jury that she will remember their faces long after the trial and that isn’t considered jury tampering, obstruction of justice or threatening a jury. How is that any different from a defense attorney looking at the jury and saying: “I...

I want to preface this with the understanding that this is not a discussion of party politics, it’s an assessment of our chances of survival against an evil foe. The conclusions I come to are political, but only in the sense of what is possible in a chaotic and dangerous time. You understand that under communism, any threat of exposing the corruption of the government or individual officials is considered a threat to the state, right? This is how the exposure of Biden’s criminal activity is being presented by the Democrats, who are simply communists and who only know how...

Congressman Thomas Massie (R-Agribusiness) is waging jihad against his fellow Republicans in the House over H.R. 2, an immigration bill that has been working through the House since January. He has specifically targeted the E-Verify provision, that would require employers to use the system, which has been in place for decades, to verify that their employees are legally allowed to work in the country. He has been on Twitter railing against the E-Verify system. There are two schools of thought as to why Massie has picked out this provision of the bill as his reason for opposing it. One is...

Ruled by the MadIt’s starting to happen more often, now, that I get the nuclear flash scene from Terminator 2 during ordinary daily activities. I was at a sale, sifting through possible additions to the overall security/survival master plan for SHTF + day 2. Suddenly, there was a moment when the surrounding crowd appeared as skeletons, just a flash in recognition of the tenuousness of survival on this planet when it seems that those in authority, having faked the election and committed the coup without recourse or sanction, are hell-bent on killing us all through the nitroglycerine-like formula of stupidity...

Managed Dehumanization And The Global StateIn 1941 James Burnham published his book The Managerial Revolution in an attempt to explain the fundamental transformation that the world around him was undergoing. To most observers it appeared that communism, fascism, and liberal democracy were the three major systems competing for supremacy on the world stage. Burnham noted, however, that these three systems shared one trait: a class of highly specialized managers operating a network of large bureaucracies with the goal of standardizing and planning their societies from the top down. Initially this was easier to observe in the hard totalitarian states that...

The Abyss I think we can see by the attitudes of our rulers that there is nothing sacred about the relationship between children and their parents. There’s nothing sacred about a church. There is nothing sacred about one’s life’s savings, or the work done over several decades to achieve retirement. There’s nothing sacred about private property or personal decisions. Our rulers see nothing sacred about any of that. The question that vexes my mind is then what is sacred about the United States Government, it’s representatives or senators, even the president when they play games with all of it, ignore...
