Oh my goodness…it happened again! But, who in the world is to blame? That will surprise some…and anger others…and the ATF will just snicker. And more of our rights, liberties, and freedoms die…

Obviously I am referring to the recent move by the ATF to ban pistol braces…and potentially turn millions of US citizens into felons. Once that is done, then the FBI can get to work and SWAT raid citizens’ homes and arrest or kill regular, every-day US citizens…as the ATF & FBI have done before…its called “massacres.”

Sorry, I had a much more intellectual and informative article already scheduled for this morning, it was going to post at 9am. But, I delayed that till tomorrow…this I have to get off my chest. But, I had to wait till 5am this morning to start writing this post because I was so spitting mad last night.

The bottom line…the ATF had said that previously approved/legal AR pistol “braces” are now illegal. And if you own one you have several options…all cost huge money, all cost US citizen time, all are patently unconstitutional, and the ATF move serves one single purpose…to erode the rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment. In other words…removing more guns from the hands of US citizens to reduce their ability to resist tyranny and oppression.

And interestingly enough…where in the US Constitution is the ATF even authorized? And where in the US Constitution does it authorize a federal agency to create law like the ATF just did?

Yeah, I didn’t think so!

But is this where it started? No. Let’s give a brief history of the origins of the ATF.

1. In 1788 ratified US Constitution the ATF is not authorized.
2. In 1886 the forerunner of the ATF was formed as part of a revenue generating scheme by the US federal government.
3. In 1942 the ATF predecessor was given responsibility for enforcing federal firearms laws.
4. In 1968, after the Gun Control Act, it changed its name again…interestingly, as part of the IRS. Yup, ironically the IRS is not authorized under the US Constitution either, nor is a federal income tax.
5. In 2001 Pres. Bush transferred it to the Department of Justice (DOJ). And yes, as we clearly see now, the US Justice Department is corrupt to its very core and is little more than a weaponized agency for the US government.

And I would love to document the ATF’s extensive history of criminal activity, murders, and anti-Constitutional operations. But I am limited in time and space so I will get to my main points.

First, as already stated the ATF has no Constitutional authority to create law, which it did with its AR pistol brace “ruling”…the ATF doesn’t even have a Constitutional right to exist.

Second, this is just another move to ban guns, which we know is of paramount importance to reduce, then eliminate, the ability of US citizens to resist the implementation of a tyrannical all-powerful central government.

Thirdly, criminalize large portions of the US population. By doing so it justifies violent anti-citizen operations by the FBI & ATF. Thus suppressing political dissension through intimidation or outright murder of US citizens.

And who exactly is to blame for all of this?

To be fair…this latest move by the ATF is the fault of the Biden Administration and the weaponized DOJ under Attorney General Merrick Garland. But, that is just a result of a previous precedent. And that precedent was set by President Trump, his DOJ under Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker, and the ATF at the time. Beginning in 2017/2018 Trump began the process that ended with Trump ordering the DOJ to have the ATF ban “bumpstocks” (a.k.a. “slidefire” accessory). Which the ATF gladly did…because the ATF hates and despises all things related to citizen guns, the US Constitution, and the Bill of Rights.

Ironically, at the time the boot-licking, Trump-worshiping, “politics-over-principles” folks openly supported the move. So tell me…who is to blame for this latest Biden/DOJ/ATF move?

Yup, the Trump sycophants who licked and slurped and worshiped at the idol of all things Trump! They abandoned the Constitution, they abandoned the Second Amendment, then abandoned principles to worship politics and Trump. And what did that lead to…any good at all or just more evil?

In all fairness…I will give some of them a pass because they didn’t understand the concept of a bumpstock/slidefire. Yeah, they were also ignorant of the need for guns as protection against a tyrannical government because they were ignorant of the American Revolution, the whole background of the US Constitution, and the wisdom and divine inspiration of the Founding Fathers.

All the rest of the bumpstock/slidefire ban supporters were/are simply big government lovers who wish to see their rights, liberties, and freedoms completely destroyed…and they are willing to embrace politics over principles.

Just a little background on the ATF, a couple salient points to ponder:

• It was the ATF who started the ball rolling on the Ruby Ridge Massacre…where a woman and child were murdered.
• It was the ATF who started the Waco operation where US civilians/citizens were murdered by ATF agents in the initial raid…and then later nearly 80 men, women, and children were burned alive.
• From 1972 – 2001 a Congressional investigation found that 75 percent of ATF gun prosecutions were aimed at ordinary citizens who had no criminal intent…and the ATF virtually ignored street level, gun-related criminal activity.
• In 2008, under the Fast & Furious operation, the ATF transferred 2,500 firearms to Mexican Cartels. One of those weapons was used to assassinate Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry who reportedly was going to expose the ATF gun running operation in its entirety.
• In 2011 it was revealed to Congress that the ATF systematically retaliated against any ATF personnel who became, or intended to become, a whistle-blower against the ATF.
• In 2022 it was revealed that “thousands of firearms, firearm parts” were stolen from the ATF’s National Firearms and Ammunition Destruction facility…and only ATF agents and ATF employees had access to those facilities.

So tell me again…what exactly is the purpose of the ATF? Why do we allow a radical and extremely violent Federal Law Enforcement agency to even exist…an agency that isn’t even authorized in the US Constitution!? And why do both Democrat and Republican Presidents support the ATF…and use the ATF to destroy rights, liberties, and freedoms?

And yes, lastly, why were so many so-called patriots, preppers, and constitutionalists so willing to lick the boots of, kiss the butt of, and continually worship Trump even when Trump was using the ATF against the rights, liberties, and freedoms of US citizens?

I will tell you why…they placed politics over principles…and exposed themselves as being more interested in worshiping a person than maintaining correct principles.

I am telling to point blank…we are closer to the “wrapping-up” than any of us can even imagine.

I ask you…

This came from a longtime site visitor Delta Three Two. I find it interesting how the rise of a small political party with a single madman at the helm of a tyrannical government led to a worldwide war costing 10’s of millions of lives.

I find it interesting in that it starkly contrasts to the rise of the American Revolution that fought against tyranny and brought about the most revered Constitution the world has ever known.

But both follow a similar path…with the exception of the an added first step of the American Revolution…”Petitioned for Redress” as outlined in the Declaration of Independence. Well, that and the inclusion of a divinely inspired cause.

So we must be extremely careful with political movements…look deeply and critically at the end-state of any movement you get involved in. And never accept, or settle for, a “the ends justify the means” type of movement…or people.

So here it is…

---

Consider this bit of “ancient” 20th century history:

In 1921 Adolph Hitler would become a member and in a short time, the leader of a very small group of German malcontents. In 1923 he would lead a small group of armed patriots in Munich to overthrow the Weimar government; the German government. The armed and violent coup failed. Adolf Hitler and members of his extremist group would be sentenced and jailed to prison time. However, his trial and incarceration would bring him fame and a large multitude of followers. He would learn from this experience.

While in jail he would author his book, “Mein Kampf” (My Struggle). After his short stint in jail he would return as the hero leader of the German National Socialist Workers Party known by the acronym NAZI. His time spent in jail would convince him violence only would not overthrow the German government, but violence would be an ongoing element of the NAZI party’s rise and maintenance of political power.

Consequently he turned to politics. In 1933 he was elected Chancellor which he held, as dictator of Germany, until his death in 1945.

My points with this very abbreviated history of Adolf Hitler’s rise to power is:
1. Organize.
2. The NAZI organization would use violence.
3. The NAZI organization would use politics.
4. The NAZI organization would use the media.
5. Expect a long time of effort to accomplish the removal of ,the entrenched and established government.

It took Adolf Hitler and the NAZI Party 12+ years of perseverance using both violence and politics to overthrow the German government. With Hitler’s ascent in 1933 to German Chancellor the power of the National Socialists would be confirmed. And the tyranny of Adolph Hitler’s Third Reich would be forever embedded in the history of the world.

Organization in the tens of thousands, millions of dedicated movement patriots is required to make any change.

Learn from history.

And never forget that sometimes, violence is the answer.

Really? Are you that worked up over this? Why? No reason to be.

See, there are several main levels of intrigue going on here…so your shouldn’t be surprised or worked up over this…there really is nothing new or anything to be worked up over…business as usual in Washington DC.

At its lowest intrigue level is Biden’s mental state…what little he has left. Biden was always a moron, in conventional terms, but in the last 10 years he has gone full-dementia. He doesn’t even know where his shoes are, let alone how to tie them. And that is when he is wearing them. So don’t doubt it when he is/was surprised he had highly classified documents in multiple locations, one being his garage. He probably doesn’t even remember what a garage is or that has one, let alone that he owns a Corvette.

Oh, by the way, is that an electric powered Corvette? Surely he wouldn’t own a fossil fuel burning vehicle would he!?

Then there is the disparate treatment between Biden and Trump…Trump gets a full on police state, banana republic, FBI (Gestapo) SWAT raid…Biden gets a press conference. So it is obvious that there is a multi-tiered justice and law enforcement system in America.

Then there is the pre-election White House cover-up. You have dozens, if not hundreds, of government executive branch employees and officials, who work directly for Biden, covering up this multi-felony criminal activity of Biden’s. And notice the “pre-election” part…there is the real crime there and a conspiracy to overthrow the election. All those folks, including Biden himself knew it would adversely impact the mid-term elections…against the radical leftists (i.e. Democrats). They all covered it up…it is further evidence of the true nature of the Biden Crime Family.

Then the next level is the DOJ and FBI utter, total, and complete corruption. And again, this should come as no surprise to you guys, my site visitors…I’ve been documenting and writing about it for years. The DOJ & FBI conspired with other government employees and Biden administration officials to keep this quiet until after the elections. This proves once again, beyond a shadow of a doubt, proves that the DOJ and FBI are nothing more than political criminal thug organizations for the benefit of the government and the Democrats. The FBI and DOJ once again, worked intentionally to influence national elections…for the benefit of the Democrats.

But, those levels of intrigue are not the primary level of darkness going on here. What was really taking place was so devious and cunning that it could easily hide in the shadows if you weren’t truly looking for it.

Biden, in his delusional/dementia state of mind actually thought/thinks he was/is doing a great job as President and he would run again in 2024. And as we all know…no one wants Biden as President again…not even the Democrats! However, it’s not the Democrats or Republicans that are controlling if Biden is running again or not.

You see, Biden has served his purpose. He absolutely trashed the economic system in the US. He instituted an intentional plan of hyper-inflation, stock market crash, huge net income and wealth reduction, the virtual elimination of savings, and a huge spike in every form of debt. He has done his job, completed his mission, and they are ready to move on to the next phase.

The next phase is coming at us at light-speed! It is the fundamental transformation of America; truth be told…the entire world. And it is right before our eyes, plain as day…if a person but looks with eyes that see. Biden had a role to play and the next President will play their role as well…once the DOJ and FBI get them elected.

You might be wondering what will happen to Biden after this extensive list of classified document related felonies. The answer it the same that it is with Trump…nothing, no charges, no nothing. Why?

Both of these instances controlled by TPTB were simple in goal…stop both of those individuals from running for President in 2024. And no, it was not the DOJ, nor the FBI, that made those decisions…it was the folks who control both corrupted and criminal organizations.

So, no reason to get all caught up in what happened, the disparity, the potential outcomes, who was behind it, etc. Just know what the goal was for both Trump and Biden…Mission Accomplished, TPTB won!

What you should be focused on what comes next…what does the next phase looks like. And most importantly…how it affects you and your family. Prepare for that and you have a chance.

No, it matters not who the next President is, just know that the DOJ & FBI will make sure the right person is elected to implement that next phase. The “phase” that has already been decided on…and fits nicely into their plans.

Prepare.

Yesterday in my post “Easier to Identify…the darkness of the GOP” < click here to read > I mentioned Laura Ingraham as “nothing more than ‘fall-in-line’ media stooge for the Republican party.” I made that statement in regards to her attacking the brave Congressional members who wouldn’t support McCarthy until he made valuable concessions.

Last night she had two leading McCarthy opponents on TV interviewing them. Her tone was polite, serious, and complimentary as to what was accomplished.

I still believe Laura Ingraham to be a hardcore Republican Party supporter but I withdraw my comment of her being a “‘fall-in-line’ media stooge” for the Republicans. She carried herself as a professional last night and I applaud her for that as she gave a fair and honest hearing to our Congressional heroes.

This came to me from a longtime friend and website supporter. I wanted to post it to allow folks to get another perspective other than mine. A perspective that I may not 100% identify with but one that should be given consideration and thought.

For clarity sake there are multiple different views of “Christian Nationalism”; 1) positive by self-identified right-leaning Christian, 2) negative by the leftists such Democrats, Progressives, liberals, academics, etc. 3) some reservation by folks like me. While I embrace both Christianity and a more God-influenced government, I fear the ability of government to interfere with, even demonize and persecute, different religions. While I won’t pass judgement on the writer’s intention, beliefs, or his advocacy, I will urge commonsense and moderation.

Also, I deleted the writer’s name and the website. When I was doing my research I visited their website. My computer’s anti-virus software immediately gave me a “warning” that concerned me. I posted the warning here for you to see and consider. I would not want any of my site folks to visit their site and run into issues.

So here is is…

Title: “Our Vision for 2023 and The Parallel Economy”

I’m bored with national politics.

I’m done wasting my time, energy, and focus on a rigged system led by blackmailed degenerates who supposedly represent us. I’m done caring what the spineless godless cowards and grifters on both the political left and the right have to say because at the end of the day they are all liberals in one form or another whether they realize it or not. I look back at all the time I invested in national politics over the past few years and can’t help but come to the conclusion that there are far better uses of my energy.

It’s time to accept the reality that America is already starting to balkanize and that the wicked American Regime will inevitably fall under the righteous judgement of God. There are no political solutions to spiritual problems and America is undoubtably a spiritually dead nation.

Our love of God is what made the United States united from its founding. We removed God from the equation over the past several decades and now predictably there is nothing left to hold us all together. The only thing Republicans and Democrats in Congress seem to agree on is sending more of our money to Israel and Ukraine. Count me out. Rome is burning and it’s time for us to start organizing, preparing, and building anew instead of pontificating about national politics in the corrupt and fundamentally broken system that is liberal democracy.

Republicans need to recognize the stark reality that winning in 2024 is a pipe dream. With Democratic control secured in Pennsylvania, Arizona, and Michigan the fix is in and electoral victory is impossible at the Presidential level. I don’t care if it’s Trump or DeSantis, winning electorally without these states isn’t possible and it might not happen ever again. We didn’t fix what happened in 2020 and they did it again in 2022. Do you really believe they won’t do the same thing again in 2024? Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. I won’t be fooled again.

Go And Build

We believe that building the Parallel Economy is the most important thing we can be doing instead of being distracted with the donor class dog and pony show that is national politics. We will be building the infrastructure needed for communication, commerce, education, networking, and information. This infrastructure will be built, owned, used by, and controlled by God-fearing Christians.

To be clear you can still post about national politics on XXX. Obviously nothing is changing with our free speech policy. I’m talking about myself personally and professionally here. National politics isn’t going to be a big focus of mine or of the XXX team. I will be focused on building real solutions, raising my children outside of the beast system, and worshipping Jesus Christ. I hope I can encourage you to do the same.

Our Responsibility To Be Good Stewards of the Blessings From God

God has blessed XXX with tremendous influence, reach, and a growing community of the greatest people on the internet. I no longer have any desire to use that influence and reach to prop up politicians who continually fail to cross the Rubicon or accomplish much of anything outside of fundraising on the outrage of good and decent people in this country and sending our money to foreign countries.

Instead I want to use the platform and reach that God has blessed us with to glorify Him by empowering others to speak freely and engage in commerce with businesses and people who share their values.

I want to inspire young men and women to get married and make babies. I want to encourage Christians to take dominion of their local communities and rise to positions of power across media, education, entertainment, and business. I want to focus on becoming a better Christian, a better leader, a better husband, and a better father while helping others to do the same. Finally I want to continue building the tools and infrastructure at XXX to make all of this possible at scale for tens of millions of people.

We Worship God, Not “Liberal Democracy”

As John Adams once said: our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other. Our government, culture, technology, media, and education system is currently being run by usurers, degenerates, liars, crooks, swindlers, sheisters, and predators who reject and hate Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Until that changes, nothing else will. Change starts at home and in particular with the man in the mirror.

A society run by these wicked people is doomed to failure. A national political system rigged to “elect” these people into power is not a system worth defending. Democracy is not our god and liberalism is a cancer on the Good, the Beautiful, and the True. Both of them can and will crumble into ash for all I care. America was founded as a Constitutional Republic, not a “Liberal Democracy.”

There are few things I hate more in this world than liberalism. “Liber” means “free” as in the word liberate. The ideology of liberalism “frees” society and the individual from God and in return enslaves them to Satan and sin. Liberalism is unequivocally the single most destructive ideology in history and enabled one of the largest genocides ever with the murder of tens of millions of God’s precious children in the womb. Liberalism destroyed a millennium of Western society, culture, and homogeneity in about a century.

Lest we forget the wise words of Dr. E. Michael Jones: sexual liberation—which is a byproduct of liberalism—is political control. I pray everyday that God continues His righteous judgement on the failed ideology of liberal democracy and that one day very soon it will be thrown into the dustbin of history where it belongs.

Trust The Plan, God’s Plan

We must accept the reality that we can’t control what the people “in power” are doing. We must accept the hard truth that we can’t even vote them out. All hope is not lost though. We worship the God who has total and complete power over everything. He has blessed us with the ability to influence and build our own families, churches, and local communities.

So that is what must do. We must build and be patient. Being patient doesn’t mean passivity. It means waiting on the Lord by placing our trust in Him while at the same time taking action to defend and preserve our families, faith, and way of life. Rome may be burning, but the fire is not out yet. When it is we will be prepared with our stable families, technology, communities, and the infrastructure needed to rebuild Western nations for the glory of God. Those who put their faith in themselves, in national politics, in politicians, or in anything other than Jesus Christ will be doomed to disappointment and failure.

As I wrote in our best-selling book Christian Nationalism:

We can and must reclaim and maintain our townships, school boards, and counties. Then our state legislatures. Then the entire nation. In order to do so we must exit the beast system completely and build our own parallel Christian society, lying in wait for their system to collapse which is when the Godly infrastructure we have built will fill the vacuum. We must support, start, and grow Christian-owned businesses. We must stop using the technology tools of the enemy and start building and using our own. Christian Nationalism pg. 54

Christian Nationalism isn’t about trying to reclaim or takeover the existing political system. We don’t want to preserve or control the failed and dying political framework that is liberal democracy. We want to reclaim our families, local communities, churches, and most importantly: our own minds. Trying to reclaim the existing political system is like trying to become the captain on the Titanic as it is sinking. America has hit several icebergs. They are taking down the ship whether we like it or not.

Christian Nationalists must build our own ark and sail to better waters. That’s what we are doing here at XXX: building a digital ark and empowering tens of millions of people to build arks for their families, local communities, businesses, and churches.

In many ways we are no different than the first century Christians. It feels like God is hitting the reset button on Christendom and we are being tasked with rebuilding the great Cathedrals which have been all but overtaken by the Synagogue of Satan. We will likely never see the completion of these new Cathedrals in our lifetimes, but by the Grace of God our kin will if we start laying the foundation today.

How To Fight Back

The Globalists can subvert and control the entire American political system, but they can’t stop you from starting a family and being fruitful as God commands. They can’t stop you from being happy despite their control and chaos. They can’t stop you from worshipping Christ. They can’t stop you from getting healthy and eliminating sin and vice from your life.

You want to fight back? This is how: focus on what you can control. You can control how you raise your children. You can control the content you consume. You can control what you eat and what you do with your time. You can control how and where you spend your money. Focus on these things and stop being so concerned and absorbed in things beyond your control, like national politics.

XXX’s Focus for 2023

Our content theme at XXX in 2023 is going to be focused on producing, promoting, and elevating people and businesses who provide resources and information on: Homesteading, Homeschooling, and Homemaking. We are working towards building a digital Christian nation that operates in parallel to the corrupt American kingdom and its wicked culture. That kingdom is not ours. It will fall. It’s time to start acting like it and building for the glory of God’s Kingdom. We hope you’ll join us.

I know I am not alone in this type of thinking because I’ve made many posts on this topic in recent months and these concepts are resonating with people who are disillusioned, disgusted, and demoralized with the state of things.

I’m here to tell you that a Parallel Christian Society is not only possible, it’s happening right now on XXX and in small communities across the nation. Do not despair. God is judging our nation, but we must remain His faithful and obedient children who keep the faith and trust Him even when times get tough. The time to repent and follow Jesus Christ is right now. Take the leap of faith and go all in.

To Him be the glory and honor and power forever amen.

This is exactly why nothing in Washington will change…other than getting worse and worse!

I was so proud of those members of the House who held out against Kevin McCarthy for Speaker!! They were amazing and held the line…till they caved in and let the swamp stink take over.

How sad!

Now, granted, they did win some concessions, and maybe that may help a little bit…but it will be little more than “business as usual” as it has been for over 100 years…Washington selling out the citizens of this nation for power and money.

So who is good ole Kevin McCarthy? Let me remind you…

• First strike against him…he is from the socialist state of California.
• He was the House Minority Leader 2019 – 2022 where huge budget deficits, huge increases in national debt were the norm.
• He was mentored by John Boehner (hardcore drunk) and Paul Ryan…two of the worst spending wackos in history and both dedicated swamp rats.
• He has been a federal-level politician for 16 years, state-level politician for 4 years…a career politician for 22 years.
• Before his elected political career he worked for Congressman Bill Thomas from 1987 to 2002. Thomas was well-known as a swamp rat and involved in numerous scandals and criminal activities.
• In other words…McCarthy is a life-long career politician who never held a real job as an adult…and stinks of the swamp.
• McCarthy presided over the Republicans losing control of the House in 2018, something he apparently feels qualifies him to rule and reign again.
• He also supports abortions (a.k.a. infanticide).
• In 2016 he stated that Trump was on Putin’s payroll.
• He is also the #1 recipient of campaign contributions from Saudi lobbying firms…in the entire Congress.
• McCarthy’s brother-in-law’s company, Vortex Construction, has received millions of dollars of no-bid federal contract work.

Here is where McCarthy gets interesting…his net worth.

There are some reports he is only worth $81,000, another says $310,000…and finally an apparently substantiated report that he is worth $95,000,000. So which is true?

Well, let me take a slightly different path…what if any one of them is true?

Let’s say the $81,000 is true…so how does he live in a house valued at $21million and have multiple luxury cars and only worth $81,000? McCarthy drives a Jaguar XF, ($120,000), a Lexus ES ($136,000), a Lincoln Continental, an Aston Martin DBX, a BMW X6, and a Toyota Vellfire. Yeah, the Velfire, at the low-end of his personal vehicle fleet, costs…well, the base model starts at $107,000. That kind of math doesn’t add up, right!?

Well, then let’s try the worth of $310,000…Would that add up either? Yeah, I didn’t think so!

But let’s think about $81k or $310K being true…then he is a very poor money manager!! Earning nearly $200,000 a year plus astronomical benefits for the last 16 years…and all he has to show for it is $81k – $310k???? A Fidelity mutual fund could have done better for him.

But then lets go to the substantiated and documented $95,000,000 worth…think about that one. He and his wife are making a combined $300,000 a year since he was elected to Congress…and he ends up with $95,000,000 net worth. Ah, how does that happen?

Think about it…if they had saved every single penny of their income they would have saved 5% of their current worth. Well, let’s look at it this way as well…let’s say they invested 100% of the $300,000 combined income each year for those 16 years…and earned 20% per year, every year. Pretty nice, eh? Well, they would have saved up 23%…of the $95million net worth.

So, you gotta ask yourself where did the $21million Bakersfield mansion come from? Where did the list of luxury cars come from that total nearly $1million???

Do you have the picture yet on who Kevin McCarthy is, what he does, and how much swamp slime is oozing from every pore of his body?

When the Republicans won the House from the Democrats the country exchanged one corrupt California criminal swamp rat for another. And that is why politics, especially political parties, is NOT the answer…not now, not ever!

Correct Constitutional and eternal principles are the only answer…period!

I wanted to take a few minutes and share a Christmas message with you…4 days before Christmas. I hope you feel the spirit of my message…and follow through these last few days before Christmas.

It has been a wild year, and the year has passed far more quickly than I expected or wished. So many things have happened…it seems the world is on fire and about to collapse, maybe it is and has. But not is all bad, nor is all lost…last Sunday reminded me of that.

My wife and I teach a Sunday School class of teenagers (15 – 16 year olds) twice a month at church since October. Each Sunday has been a good experience, some more good than others. Last Sunday was amazing! But let me set Sunday’s context first…

We were running a little late Sunday morning, so we felt a bit rushed. Also, we had a fair amount of snow earlier that week that hadn’t completely melted off. But it had melted somewhat each day during the day…then froze solid at night. We have a rather long and steep hill of gravel and cinders that is about a mile from our house that we travel to leave our little valley area, the slope faces due north.

Do you see it coming yet?????

As we pulled through the gate of our drive/road I felt the urge to take the back way out…a far easier hill, far less steep, but somewhat longer. But, I ignored that prompting and headed to the normal way out. In 4wd, 1^st gear, I was about 75% of the way up the hill when I felt the tires start to spin and our forward progress stopped abruptly. No problem…I would put it in reverse and back down the hill…I’ve done that before. Ah, not this time.

As soon as I had applied the brakes the Explorer began slipping backwards down the hill. Somehow I managed to keep the Explorer on the road…till I couldn’t. We began to slip off the road and a huge Juniper tree loomed large in my rear view mirror. A couple seconds later we came to a gentle stop off the road, no damage to the Explorer, and the Juniper about 5’ from the back of the tailgate. We were safe…albeit stuck after a 150’ slide downhill.

To shorten the story…I walked back to the house, retrieved my truck, returned to the bottom of the hill, walked my wife down the hill, drove to church, and arrived 10mins before our class was to start.

A couple other teachers didn’t show up that day so we had our normal mid-teens plus the 12 – 14 year olds as well…a large class with a bunch of kids we had not had in class before.

It was an AMAZING class on the last 3 books of the Old Testament!!! I mean it! The kids were great, the class went really well, it was just an amazing spirit filled and fun 50 minutes!

We left church on a spiritual high…even with the experience earlier in the morning on the hill. The class proved to be a tender mercy from a loving Heavenly Father to be sure! We even got a text message from a 13-year old’s mother that evening who wanted us to know their child loved the class that day and he had told her so. A blessing on top of a blessing!

So the point of this message is this…

We have had tough times, all of us, and we are going to have more tough times, all of us…but there will be blessings, there will be tender mercies. Many of them, maybe most of them, will come from our children. But those blessings will come! Some of those blessing can also be from us to others.

This Christmas there are people who need us, they need our compassion, they need our love, they may even need our help…please give it. It may be a smile and a heart-felt hello in the next few days…or throughout the next year…give it. If you see a family struggling…help them. If you see a person stressing…help them. If you see a child with conflict…help them.

Just please, please help folks the best you can. Give service, give of yourself, give of your time, give of your substance if you can. I am just asking you to help others. There are a lot of folks who need help of one kind or another in this world right now…please help them in any way you can…in any way you feel prompted to.

Thank you!! I appreciate all you do more than you imagine. I know how tough this world is right now…and I know how bad it is going to get. But I also know there is great hope out there…some of it comes in the form of children…some of it can come from inside you.

Remember the reason for the Christmas season…Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He lived His entire life in service to us…please give even a small part of yourself doing the same…serving others as you feel prompted.

Please bask in the love of Jesus.

Thank you…and Merry Christmas!

Yesterday morning I was ready to post a great article (aren’t they all great!) concerning the nearly $14trillion drop in US household wealth so far in 2022. I tied it back to the increased use of credit cards to pay monthly bills, the historic drop in US household savings rate, and that 60% of US households have burned through their entire savings paying monthly bills. It painted a pretty pathetic doom & gloom picture.

But I couldn’t find the document with the article that I would move into the website software…I spent an hour looking for it…no luck, it was gone. So after pouting for a while I just didn’t post anything…and went to work getting the batteries for the folks I am helping with their solar systems. That was immensely satisfying!

So throughout the day I kept having this nagging feeling…nibbling at me all day…really doing a number on me mentally and spiritually. And that is the point of this post…or rather the outcome of all that mental and spiritual gymnastics is the point of the post. But let me explain a few more things first…the context of all of this.

My original goals for the website were four-fold –

1 – When I started the website originally (8 years or so ago) it was based on two things; 1) the website I was participating in at the time started to go sideways in many aspects, turning ugly at times, delving into the weird and nonspiritual, 2) a huge number of emergency preparedness “experts” that were completely incompetent, untrained, and ill suited who were providing seriously bogus information to unsuspecting people.

2 – I also wanted to do a “brain dump” of 40+ years of prepping experience and professional emergency management experience to help people. Yes, relay to folks what I learned from my training…but mostly what I learned from what works and what doesn’t work based on my own experience in the field on actual incidents.

3 – I wanted to test, assess, and evaluate equipment, gear, concepts, and processes in the real-world to help folks avoid following bad advice that was more than just abundant in the prepper “expert” website world.

4 – And I wanted to try and provide a more spiritual environment from from the ugliness that I saw in other prepper websites, especially the ones that claimed to be Christian oriented, but weren’t in practice.

Yesterday I was checking the website for “stats”, comments, and emails…as I try and do throughout the day. I try to keep up on what is happening on the site, answer questions, and respond to comments. For quite a while I have kept noticing the most consistently viewed and downloaded files are the ones related to Baofeng radios. And those files and posts are some of the oldest on the site. Those were posted at a time when I was focused on getting communications capability out to the prepper world…and it appears I still am.

As I was working on the detailed drawings and parts list for my upcoming solar system upgrade I did a little general current events research as well…and it all sucked!

This morning when I woke up I knew what to do…and that is where I am headed with this. My thought was simple…Who in the hell wants to hear what I have to say about the current state of the world?

Don’t get me wrong…I have some clear and strong opinions on the world and what is happening. And you should have a pretty clear idea of all that by now. So why in the world would I want to keep posting my opinions and supporting info every week? Seriously, if you come to this site you have your own opinion(s) about the state of everything. Why would I want to change or influence your opinion? What would that accomplish?

Bingo!

So I am going back to the roots of this website…my original four goals. Kinda like back to basics thing/effort.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I will take the opportunity from time-to-time to share things/events that I feel are important. Maybe in the form of a SitRep, maybe in the form of “head explosion”, maybe just an article. And I will continue to do the “Feedback & Comments” and “FAQ” posts when appropriate.

My interest right now is solar power. And a few months ago I was pondering a number of things that had been troubling me. The I received a clear prompting that I needed to help folks who were struggling with their solar systems…and do it for free. What!? Yup, I felt that if I helped folks get their system fixed, corrected, or finished I would be blessed. OK…fine…now what?

Within a week we were visiting with some new friends at our house. They saw our solar system and asked if I could help them with theirs. They had bought some equipment from a huckster but that was it…the project died. I agreed to help them. A couple of weeks later a person had seen a neighbor’s system that I had installed…he asked if I would help him with his upgrade. I agreed. Last week at our church Christmas dinner an older lady came up to me and said she heard I helped people with their solar…and asked for help. They too had bought some equipment from a huckster but that was it…the project died. 

Now, the blessing part…for about 6 months I have been feeling the need to increase our power production and storage…but equipment, especially lithium batteries, are pretty expensive and we didn’t have any extra money laying around. Well, last summer a local solar company owned by a friend asked if I would be willing to take on a project at his company regarding logistics and organization. I agreed and in return bartered for all the equipment I needed for the power production upgrade. Then just before Thanksgiving he asked me to handle a project for his equipment yard and off-site storage facility. I agreed and the money from that will just about cover one of two batteries I need to add to the system. So…the prompting was real!! Following promptings like that work…if they are from the right source.

In the coming weeks, maybe months, I will be concentrating on providing information on solar power systems.

Before I close this post I want to share a couple things from my heart:

» The world has turned perverted with things such as drag queens performing for young children, abortions/killings of babies, and medical professionals (i.e. doctors) performing sexual mutilations on children.

» The federal law enforcement agencies are 100% corrupted and must be stopped (within Constitutional bounds) before they begin to look entirely like 1930’s Nazi Germany, 1920’s Communist Soviet Union, or present day Communist China.

» Social media, main stream media, and big-tech companies are simply extensions of the US federal government doing their fascist and authoritarian bidding, especially spying and influencing.

» The economy, US and world, is in dire straights beyond that which any single person can completely comprehend. There are forces at work that have a single intent…elevate the rich elites to am unassailable position of control and authority while turning everyone else into nothings more than serfs…while killing off as much of the world’s population they can along the way.

» The world is full of fake, fraudulent, and counterfeit “experts” that will lead you astray in every possible aspect of life. So beware…and the only thing/person that can prevent you from being led astray is you…and that includes that still small voice that can, and will, guide you…if you allow it.

» Both political parties, virtually 100% of all politicians, virtually all government employees…are corrupt, especially as it applies to rights, liberties, and freedoms. As you look at them and their actions they are interested in only two things; 1) power, 2) money. And gaining as much of both as possible…at your expense.

» There is no violence-based answer to solving the problems in the world today…NONE! Yes, you can defend yourself and you must defend your family. But, the larger problems, the real problems, the ones that will crush humanity can only be saved through one source, through one avenue, through one process…turning to God and His son Jesus Christ…then following them the best you possibly can.

Folks…please, please prepare everything you need to be self-reliant in every aspect of your life; 1) physically, 2) mentally, 3) and spiritually. The most important being spiritual preparedness, spiritual self-reliance.

Remember what you can change, where you have influence:

• Yourself
• Your family
• Your neighborhood
• Your congregation
• Your community

I can honestly say this…I love you guys…I really do. I would love nothing more than for all of you to come to the glamstead, with burgers on the grill and plates full of food while we enjoy each other’s company on the green lawn enjoying a fresh spring day. Maybe one day…

Well, time to be objective and honest in what we believe, in our core values…are you ready? We are talking about Trump. And yes, we are talking about his written comment on Truth Social regarding the Constitution. And yes, I am bringing it up. And of course I want to explore the concept of “principles vs politics”…if you are ready. And yes, this is over a week old issue; I’ve purposely waited on commenting/asking for 9 days to see how this played out and if there was a meaningful or substantive follow-up by Trump or his team. So first thing we have to ask ourselves what exactly did Trump write/post. You have to ignore headlines because they tend to be “click bait” regardless of the media format. And 60% of the headlines that I reviewed were wrong in what was actually said by Trump. Oddly, they were wrong slightly favoring Trump. I find that interesting. To be honest in this situation we have to go to his exact words…specifically what Trump said…not what someone else says Trump said. So here are the words that Trump wrote on December 3^rd, 2022…

“So, with the revelation of MASSIVE & WIDESPREAD FRAUD & DECEPTION in working closely with Big Tech Companies, the DNC, & the Democrat Party, do you throw the Presidential Election Results of 2020 OUT and declare the RIGHTFUL WINNER, or do you have a NEW ELECTION? A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution. Our great “Founders” did not want, and would not condone, False & Fraudulent Elections!”

This is the actual screen print for reference… The key part in question…

“…allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution.”

Continuing to boil this down we have to ignore everything but what he actually said…forget the controversy, real or fake, that is the context…namely a fraudulent election.

The crux of the matter is simple…Do we want someone in the political arena, and potentially a President, advocating for the termination of all of the parts of the Constitution? Yes, that is the question at hand. And yes Trump called for ALL of the Constitution. Read his words again…

“…allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution.”

Those are Trumps words…not any interpretation of anything…not an opinion of what he said…not anything but his exact words. So, I go back and ask again it again slightly differently…”Do we want to support, or defend, a politician that calls for the termination of the Constitution?”

Take his words as he said them…don’t try and justify, don’t try and explain, don’t try to reword, don’t try to do anything but believe what he said…it was simple, plain, direct, and exactly what he said.

For me…I support the Constitution 100% and I don’t support anyone who doesn’t support the Constitution…especially politicians.

Now, let’s add back in “context” to give this issue a fair hearing…

Trump raised the question of the legitimacy of the 2020 Presidential election…rightfully so. I am not qualified to provide a competent judiciary-based decision on the legitimacy of the 2020 Presidential election. I can provide an opinion, but it is only my opinion, nothing more. Now, I can say that factually no court found that the 2020 Presidential election was either fraudulent or illegitimate…not a single court, not anywhere. So for fact-based, evidence-based, conversation I say it is only right that we go with that.

Again, based on the above paragraph, was Trump justified in his call for termination of the Constitution? For me the answer is an easy one.

Now, let’s take another path on this discussion…let’s say that the 2020 Presidential election was fraudulent. Would Trump be justified in his call for termination of the Constitution? For me the answer again is an easy one.

For me I have to review what I hold in the highest regard…the Constitution vs do I value politics over principles.

If the 2020 Presidential election was fraudulent and had been found to be so in a court…then it is up to the court to decide what to do about it. And ultimately it would have ended up in the Supreme Court for a decision. And there is precedent for that. In December of 2000 the Supreme Court, Bush v. Gore, ruled (5-4) that Bush won the Florida election and awarded the state’s electoral votes to Bush. So there exists the ability for the US legal system to deal with Presidential election issues. The key here being…the US legal system. And since the Supreme Court was heavily slanted to Republicans in 2020 there would be little doubt as to it fairness.

So now, two years into Biden’s reign, let’s say that it is clear that the 2020 Presidential election was found to be fraudulent…what is the correct course of action? According to the Constitution there is no clear option on how to deal with it. However, there exists a clear path on how ALL legal issues are to be handled…due process through the US legal system. Hence, if Trump wants to pursue his claim through a cause of action he should take it to the courts…and then the court(s) deal with it…up to and including the US Supreme Court. Then the court(s) can make a determination on what to do about it legally.

In my opinion…the absolute wrong way to handle it is to terminate the Constitution…or even call for that to occur. That flies in the face of our Founding Fathers, it denigrates their entire effort of providing a Constitution given to us to legally guide and direct the affairs of the United States. If we would allow one President, rather former President, to somehow terminate the Constitution…then what are we left with? We are left with the same situation that the American Colonies found themselves in 250 years ago…the tyranny of a King.

For me…I will value principles over politics…I will value the Constitution over an individual’s desire or their edict. And I will not support anyone who calls for the termination of the Constitution…PERIOD!

And just a little food for thought…If the American people in general, as a whole, thought the 2020 Presidential election was fraudulent, that Biden was an illegitimate President, and they wanted to do something about it…then why did Republicans lose seats in the Senate and barely, just barely, take control of the House, and lose Governorships?

And then ask yourself…If the 2020 Presidential election was fraudulent in any significant way, then why didn’t at least one court at some level somewhere rule so…and thereby start it elevating to the Supreme Court?

FWIW…I 100% feel that the 2020 Presidential election was tampered with, interfered with, maybe worse. And how so? At the hands of the FBI and Department of Justice. If you want to place blame, if you want action taken, if you want things corrected…then look at the real perpetrators of the real problem with the 2020 Presidential election. Yes, the ones who are really destroying the Constitution and driving this country out of existence as a Constitutional Republic…they should be held accountable.

Please, please, figure out your core beliefs, what exactly your unshakable principles are…and then make the decision to stick with them no matter what.

Principles over politics.

Personal note: For those of you that want to lash out with cries of “Never Trumper”…shut up. If you want o call me a “Trump Hater”…shut up. I voted for Trump twice, albeit holding my nose. If you are wanting to deride me…try checking your attitude and looking at your values, beliefs, and principles.
