—Claire Wolfe, 101 Things to Do 'Til the Revolution
Claire's Cabal—The Freedom Forums
"There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
—Daniel Webster
“When I was young I was depressed all the time. But suicide no longer seemed a possibility in my life. At my age there was very little left to kill.”
—Charles Bukowski
“A slave is one who waits for someone to come and free him.”
—Ezra Pound
“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”
—Frank Zappa
“The right of a nation to kill a tyrant in case of necessity can no more be doubted than to hang a robber, or kill a flea.”

"I predict that the Bush administration will be seen by freedom-wishing Americans a generation or two hence as the hinge on the cell door locking up our freedom. When my children are my age, they will not be free in any recognizably traditional American meaning of the word. I’d tell them to emigrate, but there’s nowhere left to go. I am left with nauseating near-conviction that I am a member of the last generation in the history of the world that is minimally truly free."

"History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid."

—David Black, from Turn Left For Gibraltar
"If the laws of God and men, are therefore of no effect, when the magistracy is left at liberty to break them; and if the lusts of those who are too strong for the tribunals of justice, cannot be otherwise restrained than by sedition, tumults and war, those seditions, tumults and wars, are justified by the laws of God and man."
—John Adams
"The limits of tyranny are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress."
—Frederick Douglass
"Give me the media and I will make of any nation a herd of swine."

“I hope we once again have reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There’s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: As government expands, liberty contracts.”

I doubt anyone can make it but just in case, a bit of WW2 –
There is a British cemetery on Ocrakoke Island (also near Cape Point in Buxton on Hatteras Island) with British sailors interred from the H.M.T. Bedforshire, sank by a German U-boat in 1942. On Friday May 12th there will be a graveside ceremony.
I will try to be there but I’ll probably be out of the country that week.
Trump versus Desantis, bwahahahaha.
It will be Desantis who will lead the red wave just like the last red wave. Bookmark this page to see if I am right or right.
the selection has begun.
DeSantis led a “Red Wave”?
Do you have any idea what the vote totals for other republican governors up for re-election were? Here, let me help you out:
State Candidate % MOV
Florida DeSantis 19.4
Arkansas Sarah Huckabee – Sanders 28.1
Alabama Kay Ivey 37.7
Georgia Kemp 07.6
Idaho Brad Little 40.2
Iowa Kim Reynolds 18.5
Nebraska Jim Pillen 24.8
NH Sununu 15.7
Ohio DeWine 25.3
OK Stitt 13.7
SC McMaster 17.3
S Dakota Kristi Noem 26.8
Tenn Lee 32.0
Texas Abbot 11.0
Vermont Scott 46.9
Wyoming Gordon 58.3
Total 413.3
High Wyoming 58.3
Low Georgia 07.6
Average all 25.83
IOW’s, DeSantis was below the average republican.
There were 2 or 3 states uncalled when I made this list, so it’s off a bit, but it is substantially correct.
The truth busts a lot of bubbles.
And Matt Gaetz, one of the fighters for Americans, weighs in on the DeSantis Vs Trump race going down:
“…Steve Bannon blasted DeSantis for taking a ‘weasel approach.’ ”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11892039/Now-DeSantis-says-territorial-dispute-comments-Ukraine-mischaracterized.html
DeSantis has been given his orders to backtrack on what he said earlier, even though what he said earlier was an attempt to fool all sides.
What do you think the CCP has been doing in the USA?
Who do they own in this country?
It might be quicker and easier to figure who they don’t own.
I’m sure you’re right.
Lets start at the top –
Not owned by the CCP:
Trump
Paul
Jordan
Gaetz
Nunes
Flynn
Some others I’m sure.
And yet, as we saw with Sessions, we can never truly be sure.
That is a Most Likely list.
Rand Paul is the only one I’d say is almost certainly MAGA, and that is because he follows in his father’s footsteps, actually practices medicine, takes honest stands, and he cuts his own lawn!
Nunes is the only one on that list I’m not 99% sure of.
YMMV
Be careful who you support if you value freedom and liberty.
Kari Lake gets it!
Except that’s their spin, but she got signature verification checks on all ballots and they won’t jive.
That’s why they want to arrest her. To stop that.
It has been often stated that Putin/russia invaded Ukraine because they were forced into it by the halfwit joe biden/fear of NATO expansion.
Which I consider to be 100% wrong. If that is the case then it should be time to admit that it was stupid thinking given the results including the latest:
https://news.yahoo.com/norway-sweden-finland-denmark-struck-104242982.html
That is a significant thorn in the side of the putin/nato theory. NATO is expanding as a result of putins “3 day special operation” and now the new members are pooling their resources to make for a better offensive and defensive air force.
The Smoking Gun:
“The RdS team goal is not for DeSantis to win, the goal is to stop Trump from winning.”
Y’all can thank me for telling you the truth from day one…
Those with good memories may remember that “Jaybo” posted an article about the UNC “Fellowship for Exploring Research in Nutrition program, or FERN” that was seemingly closed to white participation.
I can tell you that they received complaints, including from myself. And I finally have confirmation the program is now open to all, thanks to the group “Do No Harm”:

And more good news – Republican dominated NC legislature overrides commie coopers veto on the bill ending sheriffs background checks for pistol purchases. Took a handful of democraps to get it done:
NC ain’t blue, and it’s not purple either.
