I’m tired of the repetitive slanders against Trump. Is he arrogant? Yeah maybe, but so what? What is not fair is linking to stories that paint him as someone who told 40,000 lies in his presidency. Really? They blame HIM for hyperbole?? And according to who? According to the sane media that has been lying to us for the past 8 years or more. I’ve yet to see even 100 absolute lies much less 40,000. Show me 10. You can’t. His mean tweets were the truth.

Trump did a lot more good those four years than bad. To counter the article that was linked to that painted him in a dishonest and corrupt light , consider what he DID do (I saved and copied from another commenter a few months ago) :

1) stopped ISIS cold


2) EO stopping the drug companies from charging medicare more than what they charged foreign countries


3) EO forcing hospitals to disclose their prices


4) Move the US embassy in Israel to Jerusalem


5) ENERGY INDEPENDENCE for the first time in my lifetime of 70 years, and record low energy prices


6) Started no new wars
 6A) Abraham Accords, bringing peace to the middle east instead of war


7) Elimination of regulations, required to eliminate 8 to add a new one


8) Cut Taxes across the board


9) Increased the individual tax credit eliminating the need to file more complicated returns


10) Started the space force, sorely needed today


11) Replaced NAFTA with an agreement better for American workers


12) Put tariffs on china, starting the process of moving American production out of the enemy’s land


13) Brought back massive amounts of money saved in foreign countries


14) Withdrew from the farce know as the Paris Climate Accords


15) Withdrew from the Iran deal


16) Increased the $$$ of the average family by over 5K


17) Started the process of fixing the VA


18) Increased the spending by other NATO countries


19) Killed the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP)


20) Created several million jobs, actual creation not bafflegab bullshit


21) Economic growth rates were going up, somewhere around 4% before the marxist killed the economy with the scam chinaVirus


22) Lowest rate of unemployment ever, across the board for blacks, hispanics, asians, veterans, etc.


23) Opened ANWAR and had the Keystone pipeline being constructed

And there’s much more. I’d also argue that the negatives touted were more the fault of trusting the wrong RINO knobs as he was sabotaged repeatedly. Mike Pompous-ass, I mean Pompeo, urged Trump, BEGGED him,

to not release the JFK files convincing him America would not survive what they would find. Trump was naive and believed he was protecting us somehow. He now realizes that if we survived the last four years, there’s nothing we can’t survive, and the ONLY people the RINOs were protecting was themselves and their legacies and their power. Not America. Trump sees this now.

Seriously, how can we all see how the media and government lied to us about Covid, lies to us about RFKJr, lies to us daily about Biden and Harris, but we cannot see that they lied to us all these years about Trump, and he wasn’t lying nearly as much or as often as them. If he were, they’d have no need to kill him.

To be truthful, when Trump ran in the Primary in 2016 he was about 10th on my list of preferred candidates. And Yes, his "mean" tweets were something I (then) wished he would have avoided doing so often. But, in hindsight, had I ended up voting for any other GOP candidate he/she would have probably (1) lost the November election or (2) would have been 100% unsuccessful fighting against the Democrat Party machine on Capital Hill. Trump disrupted the horrific status quo in the DC cesspool. He focused our eyes on the utterly catastrophe that our Federal government has truly become. He exposed them for the greedy, power-hungry, controlling vermin they most truly are. He more than aptly demonstrated that the Democrat Party will always place their political best interests above the wellbeing of American citizens. And, above all, he saved us all from 4-8 years of life under Hillary Rodham Clinton. There is only one choice to be made on election day - Donald Trump. It really could not be any more simple.

To all undecided voters--Get over your hate or fear of Trump. Do you understand that next to nothing has come out of the Biden/Harris administration?

If our country has been destroyed so much the past four years, just think about how good things were during Trump's four years in office. Make our love of country great again! (MOLCGA).

We cannot afford the impending (additional) loss of freedom which is a true threat to democracy.

There is only one true choice to help our country move forward. Trump/Vance/Kennedy!!! 😇

The fraction of the country that would even consider voting for more of what we've had the past four years... I don't understand how they can gaslight themselves into believing that's the way to go. I do understand out-of-touch mega-rich elites supporting her, as their wealth and status protects them from the worst of the consequences, so they can afford to be all-in on their all-important sacraments of babymurder and wiping out girls' sports, funneling buckets of money to illegal immigrants and bottomless hole conflicts we should never have joined, and of course protecting us from the heinous harm of "misinformation" by reclassifying free speech as dangerous. But regular people struggling to choose between ALL THAT and Trump, especially now that he's upped his game with RFK and a very real threat to the monopoly of Big Pharma/Big Med/Big Ag etc.? Make this delusion make sense.

"Democrats will say it’s our global civic duty" Speaking only for myself, I have no global civic duty. To those of you who feel you do, I strongly support your right to act on it with your own money and in your own name. Heck, grab a rifle and head to you favorite foreign hot-spot if you feel the need.

As for Trump, I can sympathize with the suspicious, but he was notably different in some key areas including no new wars, expanded diplomacy (It's OK to talk to people you don't like), using our energy resources, and border enforcement. If that was only his "role," I'd still like a few more years of it.

I cannot tell you how completely angry I get at our annual Foreign Aid cash giveaway. Somehow the American taxpayer has been conditioned to believe that somehow we Americans are obligated to ensure that every human being on planet Earth has a lifestyle and quality of life on par with those of us here in the United States of America. Because of this lavishness of Congress each and every year, I can only assume it happens simply because much of this Foreign Aid giveaway money ends up coming back to and lining the pockets of those 535 people who occupy seats in the House and the Senate. We borrow money nonstop, pay interest on it (now more annually than our entire defense budget) and then shovel it to countries across the globe, even if those nations actively or passively work to harm our nation. It is sheer madness and pure, simple theft.

Wow! Great post! I think the term is “no brainer” for people voting for Harris. Because if people have a brain they would vote Trump. I am a Bobby Kennedy supporter and I’m for free speech, ending that stupid war in Ukraine, which is costing us billions of dollars, eliminating any mandates, closing the border, and making us healthy again. I just don’t understand how anyone could vote for Harris. How can a rich country like ours allow children to go to bed hungry and people to be homeless? And yet we are spending millions and millions on illegals, or is it undocumented? It saddens me to see what we have become.

This! They run on issues that have no chance of actually improving your life. They choose the issues they KNOW cannot be resolved, and they don’t want them resolved. If they became resolved they would have no way to coerce mindless millions to their side. Take abortion. For over 40 years democrats have had power for all but 4 years. RINOs had some of those years but we all now see clearly they are the same team. So why, with ALL that power for so long, did they NEVER ratify Roe V Wade?? They could have easily at many points. But they didn’t want to. That’s because it’s their best trigger issue. They can sway people against God Himself if God were running with that single issue. But if it were ratified and no longer possible to be lost, they’d be up a creek. Looking at Harris’ policies/focus, it’s full of unmeasurable issues that will never truly improve your life. They spin and say it will, but it only improves their handler’s pocketbooks. Green energy? Please. Affordable healthcare? We saw first hand what a government controlled healthcare would do to our country. And it’s NOT free - your life and health is the price. Voter rights? Illegal immigrants getting our tax dollars before citizens? Cmon, these are issues that HURT you and virtue signal for them.

I hope more people wake up and stop letting legacy media think for them.

If you vote for Trump and he loses, you've given your time, attention, and energy to the lesser of two evils. If you vote for Trump and he wins, you've given your time, attention, and energy to the lesser of two evils.

Either way, you are condoning, complying, and consenting to be ruled by a system of evil when you vote for the lesser of two evils. And that's assuming that the remotely accessible unaudited rigged electronic voting machines counts your vote in the first place.

The "assassination attempts" on Trump are just like covid. How many times does it have to happen before people realize that it's all a fraud? Stop believing in the narrative and the power that the narrative has on you disappears.

"But there’s a reason. There’s a reason. There’s a reason for this, there’s a reason education sucks, and it’s the same reason that it will never, ever, ever be fixed. It’s never gonna get any better. Don’t look for it. Be happy with what you got. Because the owners of this country don't want that. I'm talking about the real owners now, the real owners, the big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions.

Forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They’ve long since bought and paid for the senate, the congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear. They got you by the balls. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying, lobbying, to get what they want. Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else, but I'll tell you what they don’t want: They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking.

They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. Thats against their interests. Thats right. They don’t want people who are smart enough to sit around a kitchen table to figure out how badly they’re getting fucked by a system that threw them overboard 30 fucking years ago. They don’t want that. You know what they want? They want obedient workers. Obedient workers. People who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork, and just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it, and now they’re coming for your Social Security money. They want your retirement money. They want it back so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street, and you know something? They’ll get it. They’ll get it all from you, sooner or later, 'cause they own this fucking place.

It's a big club, and you ain’t in it. You and I are not in the big club. And by the way, it's the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe. All day long beating you over the head in their media telling you what to believe, what to think and what to buy. The table is tilted folks. The game is rigged, and nobody seems to notice, nobody seems to care. Good honest hard-working people -- white collar, blue collar, it doesn’t matter what color shirt you have on -- good honest hard-working people continue -- these are people of modest means -- continue to elect these rich cocksuckers who don’t give a fuck about them.

They don’t give a fuck about you. They don’t give a fuck about you. They don't care about you at all -- at all -- at all. And nobody seems to notice, nobody seems to care. That's what the owners count on; the fact that Americans will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red, white and blue dick that's being jammed up their assholes everyday. Because the owners of this country know the truth: it's called the American Dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it." -George Carlin (Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=AeRd0EJbkC0&pp=ygUUR2VvcmdlIGNhcmxpbiByaWdnZWQ%3D)

I'm just reading this comment after writing a long one of my own. I don't think the point is that one or two good ones never break through. Of course they do. The point is that we should not be controlled by ANYONE, EVER. And who *you* think is "good" may be very different from who *I* think is "good". So who decides? It's the same with trying to control free speech: who decides what is "good" and "bad" speech? So the whole argument about "good" people breaking through is irrelevant.

You're wrong.

I don't like Trump, but he is the exception. That is why they're sending him literal warning shots. He is NOT in the Bohemian Club because they won't let him in.

Yes, I, too, believe they've installed Presidents in the past. They installed him in 2016 to be the fall guy for the Pandemic.

However, if the general population vote is large enough (i.e., a landslide), they will not be able to install Kamala. That is why it is important for everyone -- even in deep read and deep blue states -- to get out to vote.

How do I know this? Because I have a dear friend who is part of the Bohemian Club and goes to the weekends at the Grove.

Trump, Bobby, Tulsi, etc. ARE the outsiders, and they do not want them to win. So, while there is a uniparty across all the democrats I know and MOST (but not all of the Republicans), Trump is not one of them. No matter how much you protest to the contrary, your opinion does not outweigh fact.

There is no helping the wicked see the truth, none. They "Love the lies" as recorded in 2 Thessalonians 2-11. God called people like this "Wicked".....and, of course, who can argue with Him? I surely will not.

It becomes ever more clear just how demoralized the majority of Americans are in conversations/debates in these forums. Every whistleblower who lost their life to bring the truth to the public was a worthless sacrifice. Their lives mean nothing to the demoralized. Disgusting.

The Bohemian Grove is not THE only club in town so don't hold your breath that those you mentioned aren't in another subsidiary of BG. Trump has had many pictures taken with Chabad Lubavitch and proudly displays his awards from them. Why do all Prezidents take pictures with CL? Shouldn't we be asking this question? I think so.

Why do all Prezidents go to Israel and the wailing Wall? Should we not be asking these questions? What about Police Officers, Mayors, Governors and big fish in little ponds all ending up over there having a good time....and even being trained? Look it up. Americans being trained how to be heartless goons by their "greatest ally".

What about 30 million a year being sent to this welfare state of American's hard earned labor? They get to call anywhere in the world for FREE! Did you know this? I do. My nephew lives there. He even brags about shooting babies with the IDF....funded, of course, by us.

I won't even mention that their housing is even subsidized by American taxpayers....but, I just did.

When you lose something you CANNOT live without......like a child.......you start to overturn EVERY Stone for the truth....because their life CANNOT be in vain! Their sacrifice CANNOT be in vain! You search every avenue opened to you and then you realize that the more you look the more these avenues are being PAVED for your search for the Truth. It becomes a Supernatural experience wherein you realize that the Love you have for your child compels Divine intervention from above. THAT is the kind of information I trust....and only that.

I feel for most who are truly searching but get caught in the Closed Loop System that has them circling the 'toilet bowl'. "They" are about to flush so I would do everything in my power to seek higher ground.

No, this is more nefarious then you are aware of. This is not a game to those in control. You would need to read John Beaty's book 'Iron Curtain Over America' to understand the depth and breadth of our situation. Addressing the evil in our government is not fixed by "voting" a chosen candidate ( by those in power ) into office. We do not have a Constitution any longer after the Patriot Act. It completely dismantled the Constitution and Bill of Rights. We do not have a Supreme Court because if we did then there would have been no way in hell that people could have been threatened with death ( when you take away someone's livelihood how shall they live? ) or locked away in "quarantine".

It's time for everyone to do their due diligence in getting to the ROOT of our situation. We are our own worst enemy.

So, no, there is no one can that break through the barriers that 'they' have put in place. The Kennedy brothers are an example of what happens to a candidate/[president that goes 'rogue'.

Go and read John Beaty's book and then let's have a discussion.

That's all well and good in theory--truly--and I agree that in a sense, "consent to be governed" is giving up liberty to purchase temporary safety (Ben Franklin). But humans are a barbaric bunch; left lawless, a hierarchy WOULD emerge. (Think the school bully who demands $1 from other kids to pass him.) You can't wish your way around that fact. The alternative is agreeing to CHOOSE, by majority, who gets to make the rules rather than letting that role naturally fall to the bullies. YES THE SYSTEM IS BROKEN--but I don't want to live out Lord of the Flies anytime soon.

Jenna, you really are a bright and witty woman....with Courage....and many respect you for this. I, too, respect your 'David against the Goliath' crusade. Extraordinary moral courage that many of us would shun if push came to shove.

I think there is a grand flaw in all of our minds, though, that have been so thoroughly raped by the 'system', that it keeps us tethered to beliefs that 'they' planted in our minds long ago. It takes a brutal system to create bullies......but, they make us believe that they are natural order. Not so.

I once had a conversation with my Amish friend about how we "English" could be so blind to the corruption in our social order and she replied, "Well, when you don't know anything else you just accept it." I think she nailed it.

This is the problem; We have acclimated ourselves to a brutal system that serves our own desires and wants without nary a thought about our fellow man/woman/child.

We accept a social order that is inherently evil thus have become that environment to differing degrees. Some of us more self centered than others. If Sociopaths rule over us then it becomes 'trickle down economics' .......little sociopaths are spawned by this environment of psychopathy.

The level of mental, physical and Spiritual abuse heaped on the mind, body and heart in this evil social order is caustic. It eats away at the very essence of decency in the human trying to be. Those who have acclimated themselves to this putrid social order believe that there is some personal benefit in this system therefore they participate in bolstering it's legitimacy. It is an illegitimate system therefore does not require our participation to uphold it, but, instead, to thwart it with every ounce of our will.

I, like many others, are choosing to thwart this evil system of brutality. Just because it is all we have ever known does not mean that we must never know anything different .

I can see a Social Order that Christ called for. The one He says is NOT down here on Earth but where His Father resides. He brought the NEW Testament that requires a NEW way of being on this Earth. One that requires profound compassion for all life ( not just our circle of friends/accomplices or family ), sacrifice for the good, taking care of the less fortunate, sharing our wealth, protecting the innocence of children.

It is this kind of environment that will not allow bullies to flourish. It is THIS Ideology that these monsters at the top have crushed under their feet in order to take the human mind hostage. And, in doing, so, have created a world in which people will do the most egregious things to one another for personal gain. ( Anybody watched 48 Hours lately?? )

I am not afraid in the least of the option I have chosen because I know without a shadow of doubt it is the moral and right thing to do. Christ said 365 times in the Bible, "Have NO fear"! Why? Because He knows that fear drives us to do unwitting and sometimes awful things. This brutal system keeps us operating at this level and never rising above it.

Not so on the local level; They are bought and paid for too. It's all sewed up.

It’s folly to not even vote.

Remember back in the 50's when they used to put comedians in jail for saying shit...like Lenny Bruce? George Carlin's comedy became political and everything I have heard him say is spot on.

It takes approximately 20 minutes out of my day to vote. In 2015 that vote helped usher in 3 1/2 years of sane policies: lower energy costs, lower food costs, fewer wars, demonstrably better border security, low inflation, low interest costs, no men in women’s bathrooms, the US was a safer place, etc. I would say that was worth 20 minutes out of my day.

You don’t think politics is corrupt at a local level😂. Have you spoken with anyone in Chicago, Philadelphia, LA, Atlanta, Detroit…….lately? Maybe talk to someone in Springfield about how the mayor is a beneficiary of the Haitian problem: “Mayor Rob Rue of Springfield, Ohio, is renting out apartments in buildings that he owns to Haitian immigrants”, probably at substantially more than he was getting before because the Feds are paying it either directly or indirectly through some NGO. As long as local governments receive funding directly from the federal government or federal pass through money from their state, and/or local politicians benefit from federal policies, they all dance to the federal government’s tune.

As long as there are policy differences that result in me feeling the affects, either in my wallet or in a general sense that the mores of a candidate are more closely aligned with my own values, I will continue to to take 20 minutes out of my day to vote.

Can you honestly say that you only spend 20 minutes a day on voting? I'm not talking about the physical act of pressing buttons and looking at a screen. I am referring to the sum whole total of how much time, attention, and energy is spent rooting for one team over another.

This is like my friends telling me they spend only a couple of hours watching a sportsball game when we both know that they spend countless hours of their time, attention, and energy reading and watching everything about the sportsball universe when the sportsball game is not on.

Jenna's substack is a great example of this. Can Jenna really claim that she spends only 20 minutes voting when she has clearly spent a significant time researching, reading, watching, writing, editing, commenting, campaigning, etc?

I never said that local government's aren't corrupt. I know they are, but some can still be gamed with enough grassroots. This actually proves my point. If local elections are this corrupt, how corrupted do you think state and federal ones are?

You’re missing my point. Given the very real, and frankly terrifying, possibility that Kamala Harris may be the President of the US (as utterly absurd and inconceivable as that is), if I just sit by on the sidelines, watch that happen and pretend that has no affect on me because I chose not to give “my consent to be governed”, my “victory” is pretty meaningless when I still have to pay more for groceries and possibly stand in line for them if she does as promised and implements price controls, I’m still going to have to pay more for gas and eventually bow to the EV mandate, I have to watch my tax dollars go to fund nonsensical climate measures, I have to watch while the degeneracy gets more and more extreme and normalized, and I may, at some point, have to submit to a needle in the arm in the name of the latest pandemic du jour. In my estimation that makes me partially responsible for all of these things because I consented to it by not “giving my consent to be governed,” otherwise known as voting. To quote an old, maybe overused, but undeniable fact “elections have consequences”, at least where I live. Maybe you live somewhere that you are insulated from all of this and the last 3 1/2 years haven’t adversely affected you. Maybe you live by some local barter system where everything is fair and you don’t have to worry about policies affecting your wallet and livelihood. If that’s the case, congratulations, but some of us aren’t so lucky. Keep in mind however, if things get really bad, those pesky city dwellers and the gangs that have been imported by the current regime aren’t going to stay in the city. They will get desperate and might just find their way to where you live and overwhelm any local law enforcement.

In regard to your question about the amount of time spent voting, I can honestly and unequivocally say that I didn’t need even 20 minutes to decide between Trump and Biden or Trump and Harris. That is a no brainer for me, it didn’t require even a seconds contemplation.

I hate to break it to you, but all of those things are going to happen regardless of who is selected, unless there is a significant genuine grassroots awakening and push back and not this vote harder nonsense. You are falsely assuming that your vote counts and that you have a choice in the presidential selection process in the first place. You don't and the rigged voting machines are the proof. You cannot vote your way out of tyranny.

You are missing my point. You clearly spend more than 20 minutes outside of just voting for your leader to support your team. I know for a fact that you spend more than 20 minutes replying in just these threads. Your time and attention is what these circus shows are for. It's really no different than sportsball. Go team red! Go team blue! Whoever you cheer for doesn't give a damn about you!

I guess we’ll have to agree to disagree. I’m willing to admit that I don’t know for a fact that Donald Trump cares about this country, anymore than you know for a fact that he doesn’t. I don’t know for a fact that he wants to save America from the globalist regime that is threatening our country’s status as a sovereign nation, anymore than you know for a fact that he is part of that globalist regime. My guess is though, that you’re not willing to admit that you don’t know what you don’t know. What I absolutely DO know, and frankly the only thing I really care about, is whether my family was better off under Trump than it has been under Biden/Harris and I can tell can you unequivocally and with certainty that were better off then than we are now. Would you like to quibble over that also?😉

I don’t know that my vote counts, but it doesn’t cost me any effort to cast it and nothing ventured, nothing gained. As for the 20 minutes, I wasn’t talking about how much time I spend reading various authors on Substack and frankly, that’s the least of my reasons for doing so. I do freely admit to spending much longer than 20 minutes a day doing that, it gives me an excuse not to do housework. I was actually referring to the amount of time I spend on Election Day coloring in my selections of candidates on the ballot with a #2 pencil, as not all States use voting machines.

If you’re right, whichever candidate wins will usher in globalist hell. If I’m right and my sportsball “team” wins you may have additional disposable income. Since you’re so sure of the outcome and your worldview, maybe you should put your money where your mouth is and commit to donating any extra disposable income you may get to a worthy cause. After all, you choose not to participate, why should you reap any benefit from the outcome? Just asking.

BTW, what the hell is sportsball?😂

You have guessed incorrectly. I am willing to admit that I don't know what I don't know, but show me the evidence first. I know with every fiber of my being that Trump is a part of the political parasitic class. How do I know? Because I've done my research and I've paid attention to what was done while he was in office for four years.

The real question is: are you willing to admit that you could possibly be wrong about what you absolutely DO know? How can you know for certain that you and your family were better off under Trump than under Biden/Harris? You are falsely attributing your better life to a single person instead of the entire system. Do you have a crystal ball that tells you how life would have been like in the alternate universe of being ruled by Clinton and then by Trump? Is it possible that you and your family were "better off" or "worse off" because of the entire system instead of a single person? Your false attribution is akin to people falsely attributing being "better off" by getting the covid/flu "vaccination" because they did not end up in the hospital or dead after getting sick. "I still got covid/flu, but at least I didn't end up in the hospital or dead."

Sportsballs is a funny word for all of us non-sports fans. So, if your sportsball team wins and I get extra disposable income, how can you prove that I wouldn't have gotten this same extra disposable income if the other sportsball team won? As a thought exercise, let's assume that you can somehow know this and we all get extra disposable income because your sportsball team won in 2016 so you get the credit because of your vote, right? Does that mean you're also going to take credit for releasing the deadliest injection that this country and world has ever seen? After all, you chose to participate, so why should you only reap the benefits from the outcome? It seems only fair.

That's my point.

Here is a great video that was released four years ago and still holds true today: https://www.bitchute.com/video/BCCtnvQ78DI

I hope that you will watch with an open mind to better understand my perspective. Thanks for the great dialogue!

I like how you did that Mark MyWord, give a small compliment before plunging the knife in by basically stating that I’m evil (along with anyone else who chooses to vote and obey the law). Not a good way to engage in a civil conversation IMO, nor to persuade anyone that your ideas may have merit. I’ll return the favor and provide some cold hard truth for you.

Do you buy gasoline or diesel fuel? If so, I guess that makes YOU complicit with evil, using your parameters, since both are subject to federal and state taxes. What about groceries, apparel and basically everything that is subject to sales tax? Unless you live in one of the 5 states in the US that doesn’t have a sales tax, or you don’t buy anything subject to sales tax, you’re paying that tax as well, or is paying state tax not evil, I’m so confused, are some taxes inherently evil and some not evil? Do you ever use the freeway or avail yourself of a bridge to cross a river that was paid for by federal funds? Do you drive on your state highways? Your state transportation department gets money from the federal government. Where do you think the federal government gets this money? Yes, partially from fuel taxes, but not all of it. Do you drive on your city and/or country roads which may also be partially or wholly funded by federal pass through dollars. Would you expect your fire department to show up if your house was on fire or the police to show up if someone burglarized your house? Guess what, it is entirely possible they have received federal dollars for training, equipment and potentially even salaries. If you have availed yourself of any of these services/benefits in the past or may need them in the future, since we’re not pulling punches, I say you, Mark MyWord, are a hypocrite because you’re willingly partaking of federal benefits, funded directly or indirectly by federal tax dollars collected from other law abiding, tax paying citizens, you’re just not willing to contribute your share. Apparently the old adage “There’s no such thing as a free lunch” does not apply to you. If you want an eye opening experience, look at your city’s, county’s, and state’s Single Audit report and you’ll see just how much those local governments get from the federal government.

Voting is neither increasing nor decreasing my power. The assertion that it is the equivalent of giving my “consent” to be screwed over by the government, or that I can somehow opt out of being “governed”, or I can “just say no to tyranny” 😂 by not voting is absurd. No one has yet provided any evidence to support that claim, let alone enough to convince me of it and saying it does not make it true.

I consider myself a law abiding citizen and Section 1 of the Internal Revenue Code clearly imposes a tax on the taxable income of individuals, estates, and trusts. I know all about the theory that the 16th Amendment wasn’t properly ratified, thereby allegedly nullifying the federal governments authority to levy income taxes, but this contention has failed court challenges, so until someone gets the Supreme Court to agree that the 16th Amendment wasn’t properly ratified, we’re stuck with it. At least those of us that prefer to remain law abiding citizens. We are a nation of laws and it is a recipe for disaster to pick and choose which ones we obey and which ones we prefer to ignore. Unfortunately, we’re seeing this play out in real time as some, including leaders of a certain political party, have chosen to ignore many laws. The result is the chaos and anarchy that has ensued, particularly over the last four years: “The Summer of Love” riots resulting in billions in damages; the invasion of the country by gangs, traffickers and pet eaters; allowing shoplifting and other crimes to run rampant in Democrat controlled cities,; people refusing to pay taxes resulting in the IRS potentially hiring 87,000 new IRS agents. Just what we need 87,000 new agents at $62,000/yr = $5.394 billion to track down people, like you apparently, who don’t pay their taxes.

And this is why we have the society we do; everyone spends 20 minutes in attendance to their Civic Duty. The most we could do is to listen to people like Cynthia McKinney, James Trafficant, Louis T. McFadden, Henry Ford, Benjamin Freedman and many, many others who have taken their precious time, forsaken their personal safety and donated their fortunes to warn us about who is actually controlling every system. The least we could do is to "vote".

Let us not forget he claims to be the "Father of the Vaccine", ushered in 'Operation Warp Speed', handed America over to FEMA and lied about the border wall and Hillary Clinton. I won't even mention his mentor ( Roy Cohen ) being a known pedophile....or his affiliation with Jeffrey Epstein.

These puppets do not write policy ( it would be too difficult if your vocabulary consists of 4 words ) nor do they have any true power; that is BEHIND the throne room.....not in it. ( Chabad Lubavitch? )

For the kabillionth time, I do not necessarily believe your positions are without merit (although I do find it insulting that you insinuate that because YOU have read XYZ book you therefore have the definitive "truth" while the rest of us are "blind, naïve, negligent zombies who need to have our heads examined.") My husband will often interject an argument we are having with, "can both things be true?" It'll stop you in your tracks every time. Have you never had an "affiliation" (or a simple photo taken) with someone you later learned was a sleaze? I have. You may indeed be right, but I think it's wise to be open to nuances you may not be fully aware of yourself. Just one gal's opinion. ;)

Oh, I really was not calling anyone names ( every one is so sensitive these days to their own feelings but not to others! ) but merely observing the general population's level of intelligence. It's more of a descriptive because after the Plandemic I have no idea how anyone could be this blind, this naive, this negligent in their moral duty to "Know thy enemy". I believe there is a reason that Hollywood made the movie/documentary 'Idiocracy'. They were laughing at us. Even George Carlin made fun of our abject ignorance.

Yes, it is true that I once was blind to many things but never to the corruption in Hollywood, the Vatican or DC. I was always aware of that since 1978.

So, it is difficult to "respect" those who have no respect for themselves by remaining ignorant at this late date. I find it disgusting.

Don't think, go and read John Beaty's book, 'Iron Curtain Over America', Alison Weir's 'Against Our Better Judgment', watch Benjamin Freedman's video on YT....it's worth our time.

I've spent the better of 20 years reading and researching and can tell everyone in this forum that it is over, literally. Those in power have complete control over every Social Institution in America. ( Watch Norman Dodd's interview with G.Edward Griffin ). Listen to Peg Luksik explain Common Core edumacation.......and what it's true intended purpose was/is. Read Henry Ford's book about the capture of all Social Institutions in America by this globalist group.

I get it, people do NOT like new information....anything that breaks down their institutionalized instruction from the cradle to the grave. They hate the messenger and cherish the lies. They cannot be bothered to look in places they were never instructed to. They prefer low hanging fruit because it is just easier than climbing that 'tree'.

But, I was never that person to grasp at low hanging fruit. I was never that person to be satiated with rotten fruit.

I hope that you are sincere about your intentions to know the truth because it is really all that can save us at this point. No man who lives in a gilded penthouse can even relate to us much less give two shits if we live or die. And I hope people realize that not one of these rich people gives two shits for them because, to those billionaires' who toy with the majority of believers, we are garbage. You just are not that important and maybe this is truly the real issue at hand; People think way too much of themselves.

Vee, your post is exactly why I came back full circle to a belief in God. I grew up in a family full of preachers and teachers. I slowly rejected all of that in my late twenties and thirties.

Eventually, I got right to the edge of the abyss, leaning out and peering into the void, and really didn’t like the evil and the spiritual battle that I saw. I determined that even if “this God stuff” was complete baloney, it was still better than the alternative. Perhaps I would still end up in a gulag, or worse, but at least there would be something waiting for me on the other end, and something comforting me now in the middle of it.

It is not so bleak when you know the final outcome.
