The nuclear age and Cold War against socialism brought about a greater need to protect the continuity of government (COG) from enemies of the Republic, foreign and domestic. The greatest threat to America for the last hundred years has been the threat of socialism (See “A Trump Return — Devolution Explained?” LibertyUnderFire). But what if America had to fight socialists on its own soil and they conquered from within by a fraudulent election? In every subdued country, freedom died, as did many of its citizens.
The military takes a solemn oath to preserve the Constitution from enemies foreign and domestic. Freedom from excessive government protected by the Constitution is the first fatality of socialist governments. In this country, the military’s first responsibility is to protect the Constitution and the Republic created by it — not the immediate president or federal government. Our Republic, protected by the Constitution, and socialism are polar opposites. Socialism…
WASHINGTON, Aug 24 (Reuters) – A federal judge on Tuesday declared a mistrial in the government’s embezzlement case against celebrity lawyer Michael Avenatti, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Los Angeles confirmed to Reuters in an e-mail.
U.S. District Judge James Selna in Santa Ana, California, said Avenatti was entitled to a new trial because prosecutors had failed to turn over relevant billing-related evidence.
Avenatti, representing himself, argued that the mishandling of the data hampered his ability to mount a defense.
Selna said he did not find any evidence of intentional misconduct on the part of prosecutors, according to media reports by the trade publications The Recorder and Law360.
Selna’s ruling abruptly ended a jury trial that began in late July and was nearing its conclusion.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office handling the trial was not immediately available for comment. Avenatti and his stand-by lawyer could not immediately be reached.
The House is expected to vote on Tuesday to restore federal oversight of state election laws, as Democrats begin a push to strengthen the landmark 1965 Voting Rights Act amid a national fight over access to the ballot box.
Democrats view the legislation, named after the late civil rights icon Representative John Lewis of Georgia, as a linchpin in their battle against voting restrictions in Republican-led states. It would reverse two Supreme Court rulings that gutted the statute, reviving the power of the Justice Department to bar some discriminatory election changes from taking effect. It would also make it easier for voters to bring legal challenges to balloting rules that are already on the books.
Up against urgent deadlines ahead of next year’s midterm elections, Democrats were expected to adopt the measure along party lines during a rare August session, just days after the bill was introduced. But stiff Republican opposition awaits in the Senate, where a likely filibuster…
The House of Representatives voted on Tuesday to move forward a key part of President Joe Biden’s agenda: a massive, $3.5 trillion plan to expand social programs like Medicare, tackle climate change and fund pre-K and community college.
But the narrow vote — 220 to 2012 — signaled the tricky process facing the White House and Democrats in the month ahead, as leaders try to appease the various wings of the party.
A group of House moderates threatened to withhold their support for the budget resolution until they obtained a guarantee that the House would pass a separate, $1.2 trillion infrastructure package by Sept. 27. That bill would fund such things as roads, bridges, rail and water improvements, as well as a massive expansion of broadband.
In media news today, a CBS reporter instructs the White House staff to show Biden the poll about his job approval falling, Bill Maher and Andrew Sullivan pan newsrooms for caving to the ‘woke mobs,’ and a CNN panel blasts Biden’s ‘bizarre’ messaging on Afghanistan
Republican California gubernatorial candidate Larry Elder dismissed a column that called him “the Black face of white supremacy” as par for the course because liberals are “scared to death” that he could actually take control of the state.
The Los Angeles Times published a column on Friday titled “Column: Larry Elder is the Black face of white supremacy. You’ve been warned,” which accused the Republican of using “overly simplistic arguments that whitewash the complex problems that come along with being Black in America.” L.A. Times columnist Erika D. Smith said Elder uses “taunting and toddler-like name-calling of his ideological enemies” before belittling the gubernatorial candidate…
Talk about revolution, civil war, and upheaval is so strong that around 60% of Americans think it is possible to likely to occur soon. But while it may be true we need to rethink and reinvent society in a revolutionary manner, to reverse the war on freedom by the corrupt ruling class, the violence, coercion, and alienation that attend most revolutions aren’t worth the achievement of their goals.
If we juxtapose our concept of a peaceful revolution within, based on the UPDR Ideals (Unity in diversity, Popular sovereignty, Democratic equality, and Rule of law) with most ideological revolutions we see on one hand, the Upadarian (UPDRian), peace and harmony with tolerance and love, and, on the other hand, oppression, fear, and upheaval.
The Upadarian (UPDR) Revolution is peaceful change from within through freewill participation, it has little to do with politics beyond demanding politics remove its coercive control from the realms of faith, family, culture, and freewill participatory community.
The Upadarian Revolution envisions the devolution of political and corporate power and wealth from the center and top of society to private and local structures and institutions based mostly or wholly on freewill participation. In that regard, while adherents of this Revolution will gather and connect based on its shared ideals and principles, its effects could extend way beyond its practitioners.
What we call “The Upadarian Revolution” is itself a bold departure from what most people think of when they talk about revolution. Most revolutions tend toward three things: violence, compulsion, and alienation. They are conducted in violence. People who are in lockstep are compelled to adhere to their edicts. Everyone who opposes their underlying ideology is alienated from the group conducting the revolution. But the whole concept of the Upadarian Revolution is itself revolutionary: it does not in any way use violence, no compulsion is applied to anyone, and those who don’t agree with its ideas are not considered alienated from those who do.
If this kind of revolution is successful, there will be large-scale structures and global institutions that meet people’s needs, but everyone who participates in and benefits from this revolution will do so willingly and through informed consent. The chief problem with most ideologies is that they try to create structures and institutions based on coercion and force and they alienate people who don’t agree with their principles or goals. They almost claim that in order to acheive their aims, usually bogeyman fears addressed or utopian promises provided, they must be followed by everyone, without exception.
The effects of the Upadarian Revolution would be unilaterally created alternative sociocultural and socioeconomic structures and institutions, perhaps even whole private distributed cities and safe havens, that reflect shared ideals, principles, and practices based on Christian beliefs, values, and convictions. Beyond participants and adherents, such a revolution would also result in a more formal recognition and accommodation of private alternative forms of sociocultural and socioeconomic autonomy for groups of people who are drawn together through mutual consensus and freewill participation alone.
Too many “revolutions” have no value unless and until they dominate a landscape and create their own political, sociocultural, and socioeconomic hierarchies that dominate the lives of everyone. In other words, they don’t offer much of anything until everyone within a given land is under their rule. But, at the same time, even when they gain dominance, they tend to fail miserably: they don’t succeed in ending the bogeyman fears nor in fulfilling any of their utopian promises.
Our revolution is unilateral and peaceful. It is something one practices, it isn’t something one imposes. Even within unfree and dysfunctional societies, people who start with our four core ideals and use the other principles and practices will tend toward being more free and prosperous than their neighbors, all without needing the permission, much less the submission, of their neighbors. To be able to create positive and beneficial change without worrying about the opinions of others or who wins an election is a truly revolutionary idea whose time is now.
We cannot emphasize enough how our concept of revolution is such a departure from the previous concepts of revolution as a forceful change of rules and rulers over everyone, whether they like it or not. Being jingoistic, divisive, and hateful toward the “other” who doesn’t meet your expectations will not solve our problems in a just manner that honors the laws and nature of God!
People who come to embrace this new way of conducting a revolution within their own lives, relationships, associations, and communities on the basis of freewill participation alone will experience the benefits of such a revolution even if society around them continues its spiritual and moral decline into depraved corruption.
There is no “otherfying” your neighbors, no division or intolerance, and no hatred of others within our concept of revolution as we are seeing emerge on the left and right. If your version of society demands you demonize dissenters or otherfy your neighbors, then it’s more of the same top-down centralized control by the few over the many. We simply aren’t interested in otherying our neighbors or assuming everyone who doesn’t embrace our ideals and the such is somehow not as good as us. We reject the “us versus them” narrative.
One chooses the Upadarian Revolution as a pathway to fulfillment, to freedom and prosperity, and to actualizing God’s scroll of destiny and purpose for their lives, that which is God’s best for their lives. Beyond sharing this and urging others to consider this, the practitioners of our revolution don’t otherfy their neighbors or in any way pursue a path of coercion or control over anyone else.
We don’t need these top-down, coercive revolutions that use violence and that alienate people from each other.
Mark Clouse- It seems President Joe Biden’s approval numbers have headed south as the Taliban have taken over Afghanistan. The President is now polling at 46 percent, which is 7 points lower than where he was before the collapse of Afghanistan began, at 53 percent.
The polling was completed by Reuters/Ipsos, which has consistently shown Biden’s approval numbers to be higher than the poll of polls average, so it’s an important bellweather poll when assessing the full reality on the ground opinion-wise for the American people. A dip in this poll is signficant and could portend more bad news for Biden on approval polls in the very near future.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – President Joe Biden’s approval rating dropped by 7 percentage points and hit its lowest level so far as the U.S.-backed Afghan government collapsed over the weekend in an upheaval that sent thousands of civilians and Afghan military advisers fleeing for their safety, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll.
The national opinion poll, conducted on Monday, found that 46% of American adults approved of Biden’s performance in office, the lowest recorded in weekly polls that started when Biden took office in January.
It is also down from the 53% who felt the same way in a similar Reuters/Ipsos poll that ran on Friday.
Biden’s popularity dropped as the Taliban brushed aside Afghan forces and entered the capital, Kabul, wiping away two decades of…
Democratic Senator Bob Menendez, chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, issued a scathing assessment of Joe Biden administration’s withdrawal from Afghanistan and pledged his committee to investigate its “flawed execution.”
The senator said the committee would “seek a full accounting” of the US exit, Donald Trump’s “flawed negotiations” with the Taliban, and the Biden administration’s failure to anticipate the rapid collapse of Afghan security forces despite assurances.
“Congress was told repeatedly that the Afghan Defense and Security Forces were up to the task, that it had the troops, equipment and willingness to fight,” the senator said in a statement issued by the committee on 17 August.
“To see this army dissolve so quickly after billions of dollars in US support is astounding,” he said.” The American and Afghan people clearly have not been told the truth about [Afghan security forces’] capacity and deserve answers.”
We have a vision that will change your life and turn this country around if it even begins to succeed. Freedom is powerful and overwhelming, it beats the authoritarians every time people decide to GIVE IT A CHANCE!
We need you to become a paid subscriber and help us reach millions of Americans with a freedom message and build a nationwide network of freedom building clubs and local people-centered free press operations.
The mission of the Freedomist is to broadcast a message and rally Americans to restore our great and noble country to its TRUE manifest destiny which includes being the cradle of a new civilization, an empire of liberty, and a free and pluralistic society of equals which leaves nobody behind. We believe that unless Americans unilaterally and voluntarily embrace this manifest destiny, we will be dragged into the cesspool into which a dying Western Civilization is being pulled through moral depravity, corruption, and a growing authoritarianism.
The irony about the spiritual collapse of Western Civilization and the emergence of a new civilization is that the very core values and beliefs that animated Western Civilization are carried now only through the seeds of a new civilization which will build upon those values and ideals to produce something even more glorious. Basically, everyone who is determined to “preserve the Western moral and intellectual tradition” is likely a seed-bearer of an even more advanced civilization.
If you are one who desires to “save Western Civilization” from spiritual apostasy, moral depravity, intellectual incompetence, cultural decay, and socioeconomic and political corruption then your best bet is to explore and understand the ideals, principles, and practices of a new freedom-building civilization whose foundation includes God’s standards of both righteousness and justice. We cannot merely restore some glorious past, we must build on the good and bad learned from the past to go beyond anything that has ever been achieved before in human civilization.
We believe America is good and that those who wish to cancel America, by falsely deconstructing our history and our core ideals through defamation and libel, “evince a design of tyranny.” We are engaged in defeating a war on freedom led by an unholy alliance consisting of the neocommunist wokatariate on the left and the neocom cronytariate on the right, two sides of a corporate/political ruling class whose aims are mostly just defined by a raw and animalistic lust for monopoly power at any price, a price you and I are meant to pay.
This absolute clarity of mission, of narrative, and of the very nature of the fight as well as the path to victory has been lacking. No organization, movement, or publication has emerged that contains all these elements. If they had, you would be wholeheartedly supporting them and participating in their efforts.
The Freedomist is led and managed by Bill Collier, a champion of freedom for all people of every race and ethnicity and of every socioeconomic class and demographic. Collier, our publisher, and his team, who he has gathered to fight the battles that will make YOU more free and prosperous, has a long track-record of success. Together, these experts, professionals, and leaders have the knowledge, skills, experience, and track record needed to both formulate and carry out a plan that will fundamentally change the nature of how we fight the freedom takers.
At present our digital publication is mostly about providing the intellectual backing and inspiration needed to fight for and build freedom in your life. We will be adding the following features as we gain backing:
1. Daily tickler that analyzes press coverage- this is way beyond criticism of the media and its bias or lack of professionalism, it is an analysis of their intentions and aims through their false claims and lies and the narrative they are promoting and a clear annunciation of the actual truth (we treat these “journalists” as political partisans who are as open to transparency research as any political candidate or public figure)
2. Legislative calendar- we will track major issues down to the lowest levels and all Federal legislative activities in a neat and tidy summary that gives you actionable intelligence on the use of legislation both for and against the cause of freedom
3. Community calendar- we think of freedom builders as a community and will cover events and activities of interest to freedom builders, you will find lots of ways to get engaged and support freedom and not just through the American Freedomist Network
4. Intelligence report on the fight for freedom- this is written by former intelligence experts and analysts and views the war on freedom by the authoritarian ruling class through the lens of a geopolitical conflict, with clinical, dispassionate, and objective rewriting and analysis you can take to the bank as reliable and useful
Beyond this, our vision includes a national digital publication that informs and empowers freedom builders, 50 State Freedomists run as chapters/franchises of the American Freedomist Network, a nationwide network of local freedom building activists who connect and collaborate in their own neighborhoods to transform their communities into Freedom Havens, and a nationwide network of people-centered free press operations that defeat the narrative of the partisan corporate press.
Yes, we intend to “win elections”, especially local ones, for “Freedomist” candidates, but our foundation and our core efforts are based on gathering, connecting, supporting, and mobilizing a virtual-to-local digital “army” of freedom building activists who materially support one another as much as possible. Our focus is on collaboration that supports many efforts, mutual self-reliance and material independency, preparedness for emergencies and crisis through voluntary mutual assurance, information truth and dissemination outside the monopoly platforms, and creating local Freedom Havens through civic activism that is non-partisan.
What you see with this site is only the beginning. We have much more planned and, with your support, we can build a team of skilled professionals to facilitate a massive nationwide network of local freedom builders until most US Counties and Congressional Districts are dominated by “Freedomists” and not the freedom takers.
Becoming a subscriber will help us do things like the following:
1. Broadcast our message until this website has over 5 million visitors per month and at least 5,000 visitors per every US Congressional District and the District of Columbia (we have around 160,000 or more monthly visitors now)
2. Build our existing email list of over 584,000 to include at least 500 Freedomist Subscribers and activists as well as at least 2,5000 free email subscribers per each US Congressional District to build the largest and most in-depth virtual-to-local digital army in US history
3. Hire a staff of 30 or so top professionals and 20 or more writers and content producers to produce the most comprehensive news intelligence source for freedom builders ever launched in this country (we have 4 key staff)
4. Promote the first Freedom Havens in 5-10 areas, by empowering and supporting local “chapter groups” of the Freedomist, which people can visit and emulate until most US Counties are Freedom Havens
5. Reach at least 20 million Americans per month with a pro-freedom message that breaks through the biased corporate press propaganda and the partisan labels (today our network can reach over a million people per day and around 2-3 million per month)
It isn’t just about subscribing for content. We need to raise around $450,000 per month to conduct this program, which would result in fulfilling these aims within 2 years or less from the time we achieved this level of backing.
At present, we have raised around $25,000/month through direct and indirect sponsorships and subscriptions, mostly through sponsorships. It is our strong conviction that if we have the support of 120,000 backers, and not just a few major sponsors or advertisers to our network, that we will be stronger and less easily deplatformed or canceled.
WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT NOW MORE THAN EVER! Time is running out for freedom in this land, the freedom takers are marching Taliban-like through our institutions and all their would-be opponents are as feckless as the Afghanistan government! Join is and become a Freedomist, a patriot who loves freeedom and works toward a free and pluralistic society of equals for ALL Americans!
Simply go over to our SUBSCRIPTION PAGE and select an option, from free to $14.95/month, and become a Freedomist today! Once you do, invite your friends and family to join you!

Has the totalitarian rainbow authoritarianism flag replaced the American flag in the US Military?
The US Military have gone woke. The alt-gendered rainbow authoritarianism that demands approval and applause, and pressures you to participate to prove your wokeness, and all the deconstructionist mythology aimed at white-shaming and American-bashing have become the path to advancement for higher rank. In short, our Military is controlled now by a woke cesspool of would-be tyrants, petty-minded higher ranks whose main passion isn’t freedom and warfighting but, rather, pronoun usage and rainbow flags.
The same general Milley who wants to understand “white rage” and pushes the neocommunist authoritarianism of so-called “Critical Race Theory ” and who hates everyone who rejects this totalitarian ideology can’t even figure out why and how the Afghan government collapsed or why withdrawing air and intelligence support to the Afghan military might have had something to do with it. Our military is woke and now it is being broke, its leadership is too focused on “diversity training” designed to force ideological heterodoxy to actually fulfill their oath or to be effective at warfighting.
Just how the rank and file feel about all this, being encumbered with constant leftwing totalitarian indoctrination instead of training to fight or being encouraged to love and respect this country and our Constitution, is not readily known. One suspects they are very much upset about this, but too afraid to speak out, but oje fears the new generation of military men and women may in fact be just as woke and morally/intellectually broke as their officers.
A real divide between the military and the people, where the military has become an adjunct of the totalitarian aims of the Democratic Party and their GOP crony collaborators, is dangerous and unfortunate, if it happens. There is no reason to believe this is happening or that our fine young men and women in uniform aren’t as repulsed by this alt-gendered, rainbow fascist agit-prop as most other decent and thinking human beings.
What is happening however can only either lead to severe morale problems as the anger at the general/flag level officer corps grows, because officers who aren’t woke don’t advance in rank, or, worse, the purging of the ranks of all save fellow woke neocommunist authoritarians.
What we are seeing in Afghanistan is that our woke-led armed forces, at the flag level, cannot plan or execute anything better than the debacle unfolding in Afghanistan. It is a disgrace on a mammoth scale, it has left thousands of Americans and our friends in Afghanistan is a Taliban kill zone. General Millie is too busy hunting for white supremacists, fighting climate change, and shoving his rainbow flag down the throat of rank and file to be able to plan or lead any operation.
None of this totalitarian agit prop belongs in the military. It will break its warfighting capability, it will possibly make it an arm of the authoritarian Democratic Party, and it will sunder the sacred bond between our armed forces and the people. What the Democratic Party leaders are doing to the Military is a gross miscarriage of justice and does violence to the very oath every member of the military takes.
