Trumps Master Spooks & the Destruction of the Enemies of the Republic - ...
"James Red Pills America" says he will be re-mastering the sound. This is a superb video, but it will be better with better sound. As it is, it is tremendous. We will win this thing. Trust the plan, it is good.

Pushing Back Against Media
One of the most useful things we can do, most of us already have - cut the cord, detach from the newspapers, get most of our information from trusted (not mainstream media) sources.
It was actions like the above that led pundits to describe bloggers as "those crazies sitting at their computers in their pajamas". Glenn Reynolds and others took that as a challenge, and started PJ Media. And, a whole lot of other people rose up, signed up on Blogger, and let fly.
Most of them quickly found other things to do. A relative few went on to some success. Some split off into videos, podcasts, and other media. And, some took advantage of the Indie Publishing Revolution.
And, then, there are the plodders, like myself. I had some successes - mentions in far more popular blogs - one time, a short mention in Curmudgeonly & Skeptical caused my account to lock up for a few hours.
Since then, I've been invited to join in on several group blogs and, recently, decided to write books. I finished one (needs revision), and am currently writing several more (yes, several - I never was too bright). Most recently, I decided that I needed to write the definitive Anti-Feminist book - and Feminine Manifesto was born. I have a link to possible chapter divisions here - feel free to make your own suggestions.
I expect to put up chapters as I complete them, and indie publish the compilation when it's done.
The point is, for too long, the average person has delegated the job of exercising his/her/whatever 1st Amendment rights to the Professionals. Only in blogging and indie publishing have the average person taken any action to assert those rights for himself/et al.
Just as delegating one's right to Bear Arms to cops, sheriffs, National Guard, and other military suddenly came to be seen as a Really Bad Idea under Obama, so trusting others with your 1st Amendments rights is something that is not in your best interest.
Even the limited use that most people exercise - posting on Facebook or Twitter - has been shown to be illusory. If you don't have control over the 'printing press', you ain't got Jack!
Be prepared to 'go to ground' - switch from Blogger or other media source, to - if necessary - samizdat publishing (literally, the hand-copied writing that Russian dissidents used to circulate their unapproved thoughts). While you can, get multiple email accounts, multiple blogging accounts, multiple media outlets.
They can TRY to stop us, but - if we are nimble and willing to fight - they won't be able to shut up down - or shut us up.
If we're reduced to scrawling on walls and sidewalks, well, that's what we'll do. the means of expression is not as important as the desire to express yourself.

How to Prepare Hardy Vegetables to THRIVE during a COLD Winter
And then there's this. Meat you can hunt and kill. Vegetables are also needed.
How ONE PLANT Can Give You FREE FOOD Forever! (And Plenty of it!)
Okay, a bit different from my normal post, (whatever that might be) but think. Are we about to have some trauma before we get back on our feet? Maybe, maybe not. But this never hurts. If nothing else, it gives us even more profit!

BREAKING! Gun Rights Advocate Warns Of 2nd American Revolution if Dracon...
Remember the Michael Robinson thing from Greensboro NC? This guy is pretty good as well!
What is an Outlaw Blogger?
An outlaw would be someone whose crimes are so great, that they have voluntarily placed themselves outside of the protection of the law - in other words, a person would not be prosecuted for killing them on sight.
The term developed during the early days of the Western frontier, when certain crimes, such as cattle-rustling - stealing a man's cattle - were the actions of these outlaws. In the western ranges, cattle were turned loose for long periods of time, during which they had to forage for themselves. Out on the open range, some of them would wander away from the rest of the herd.
Most people, finding another person's cattle in their herd, would let the lawful owner know about it, and arrange for the cattle to be returned. Rustlers, on the other hand, would take unattended cattle, often re-branding it to be able to claim it as theirs.
We, as Outlaw Bloggers, are declaring ourselves to identify with those people who the law will not protect. This is, perhaps, an exaggeration, but not by much - given the position of the Leftists, that un-authorized speech, writing, or thought will be punished.
I'm going to take on some responsibility for getting this blog back in action. I'm going to pledge to post 3 times a week, on some un-approved topic, from now until the end of 2019. Perhaps we can get this blog back on track, and lend our support to Unauthorized 1st Amendment Action.

Relaxing in Panera with Coffee
After getting my stiff and aging butt out early to get to 9 am mass, I decided to treat myself with some breakfast and coffee, at Panera. I try to visit at least once a month to get a full meal, as I so often use/abuse their wifi privilege when I want to write, but am going stir-crazy at home.
I found some interesting things online - Andrew Sullivan has a generally thoughtful piece about the replacement of religion with secular pursuits, and why it so often leads to Cultic Politics.
I do have to question his conflation of Trump supporters with blind cult-followers. Most of Trump's supporters do see his faults - and they are many - but, simply prefer a President with faults who doesn't hate everything about America, to the many politicians whose followers insist they have no faults - and don't consider hatred for America, capitalism, and the Constitution to be faults.
Sullivan has also written about the Opioid Crisis, and its relationship to spiritual emptiness. The only known means to break the addiction was pioneered by a man influenced by the English Spiritual Awakening that coalesced in the Oxford Group. The Oxford met in house parties, and developed spiritual practices that heavily influenced Bill W. in developing AA.
No shoe deal for YOU!
I caught the last 1/3 of the movie Idiocracy this weekend. It was funnier before Life started imitating Art.

Compare Nike's treatment of Kaepernick to that of Turkish player for the NY Nicks - Eres Kanter. Because Kanter opposed Ergodan, Turkey has threatened to close access to any company that gives Kanter a contract.To be spiritually reborn, the Oxford Group advocated four practices set out below:[9]:9
- The sharing of our sins and temptations with another Christian.
- Surrender our life past, present and future, into God's keeping and direction.
- Restitution to all whom we have wronged directly or indirectly.
- Listening for God's guidance, and carrying it out.

Dropping in After a LONG Time Away
To be fair, I've been working on my book (started NaNoWriMo, but bailed after 1-1/2 weeks), getting in the sub teacher hours to make a qualifying Social Security year, clearing up the house and getting rid of paper, yadda yadda...
I've mostly blogged on Liberty's Torch and The Declination. That, and just life, has kept me away. I'm even down on reading other blogs - it would seem I'm winnowing down to the absolutely essential stuff, for now.
Part of it is that, finally, after a long time worrying about the state of the country, I'm a little calmer. The Donald is NOT perfect - not by a long shot - but, for the first time in a long time, I think we've got someone in the Oval Office that has the country's best interests at heart.
But, the book - about 1/2 way through it, and I'm blazing away at a pace that will have me finishing before March (cross your fingers - every time I make those kind of plans, something ghastly happens). So, in my rare downtime, I've been lurking around Mad Genius Club and According to Hoyt, among others. Even when goofing off, I'm attempting to learn more about the business of writing.
And, in the process I found this - on Writing on the Go. That's something I actually know quite a lot about, as my peripatetic ways have taught me.
I live out of two totes - one for personal essentials - driver's license, money, debit cards, planner (yes, I'm old school about that), cosmetics, brush, etc.
The other is packed with essentials:

The other is packed with essentials:
- Macbook - the 11" model - very compact and slim, and, most important - lightweight
- Notebook - composition style, quad ruled
- Index cards, held together with a binder clip
- Extra binder clips - handy for all kinds of things
- Ipad - the laptop is for writing (Scrivener). The Ipad is for web browsing, notes (OneNote), and email.
- Handheld voice recorder - handy in the car or when I'm on the move.
- Pencil Case - # 9 mechanical pencils, various pens and highlighters in multiple colors, extra # 9 lead.
- Sticky notes
- Gallon-sized ziplock (freezer weight) - used to corral various cords, plugs, USBs, and tech gadgetry
What do you haul around?
Everything you need to know about the plan...
Dan Bongino has some good intel. What can be done with it?

Okay, my wordpress got frozen
So, let's see what we can do from here. I need to know who checks in here. If all else fails, let's see who I can count on from google or wherever to check to see if anyone has searched to see if I still exist online. This gets any hits, screw that other site. I'll be here for you.
If all else fails, I'll just transfer my stuff to this site and wordpress be damned.

Donald Trump: From Death, Destruction & Terrorism To Peace, Prosperity ...
This is awesome, THIS is MY President!!!!!!!!!!!!

This WAS a good idea
I must admit, I'm as guilty as any. I rarely posted here, I should have for sure, and it just died of neglect.
Mea culpa. I was one of the first, therefore I am even more guilty than the latter.
Perhaps it can be saved even yet, but that remains to be seen.
