Our Revolution
Happy
250
Today we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
Let’s begin as they did, with the Preamble to the Declaration.
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”
Will we carry forward this Declaration?
THE MAN WHO SAVES HIS NATION BREAKS NO LAWS
Our Revolution is one by word and raw political power. Laws have never ruled this nation or any other, and never will; we are ruled by what the powerful permit. Yes, laws guide those in power, but often only loosely.
As people have noted on X many times, we can have our country back, but we are going to have to make women and minorities sad. Good, those who would lament that which blesses the whole earth have duly earned the degree of sorrow such splendor might induce.
Today isn’t the day for codling the feelings of low-morality and low-courage whiners, but I will say this. I hope every nation has the honorable constitution and grit to implement structures and systems that unleash the bounty of individual liberty. I wish the whole earth well, all Americans do.
Our Revolution is simple to describe, yet it will take the highest nobility and courage.
Sound money only. Thomas Jefferson was correct: Central Banks will always be a greater threat than standing armies.
Ending all entitlements. ALL. It is far more moral for people to die than to rob me.
Taxes Decimated. A simple, minimal tax system on money spent.
These first three solve a million little problems, for evil does not have grassroots support; it's always funded from thievery.
Deport the Third World, going back generations. What papers they have or do not have is irrelevant. Merit alone might stay, or is welcome to join. Remove all but the most productive H1B.
Voting. As in our great founding, non-contributors and women do not vote. Women don’t do the dying, so they don’t get to do the voting.
Armed civilianry: facilitate the arming and training of good men.
High Trust only: All non-high trust behaviors are punished brutally.

For too many, the list above will expose your cowardice and morally flimsy disposition. WHY do you cringe at goodness! Why are you afraid of what is clearly Righteous?
STOP compromising the truth! STOP negotiating with those who seek our destruction! Meet those who hate this nation eye to eye and speak clearly. We each have our own unique way of answering this call… in those moments show up in a way your deathbed would be proud.
You, me, we all have spent too much time attempting to seem sensible to those who hate freedom, who hate our great founders, our forefathers, our ancestors. Shame on me, shame on you. On this, our 250th anniversary of declaring our independence, we should all re-dedicate ourselves to being bold in the truth. The simple-minded and prideful think their convictions are true north, and that everything less extreme is weak and everything more extreme is crazy. This mindset is the hallmark of a traitor, for it gets offended at all others, no matter where they stand. Like our founders, the tent pegs must be wide. Those who are not against us are FOR us.
There is one and only one Nation at the vanguard of the sovereignty and dignity of the individual. There has been one great champion, one awesome bulwark against the road to serfdom: The United States of America. We owe it to those who gave their all to RESTORE the principles of limited government and the great expanse of individual freedom.
Though on this day we remember Great Men who put ink on paper, who we are as a nation, what we are fighting to restore, is not protected by that ink or any magical dirt. It is because of Great Men making brave decisions and welcoming the sacrifices that come with courage. What we have is because of Great men; what we will become will be because of Great men.
IT IS HIGH TIME TO USE RAW POLITICAL POWER TO FORCE OUR WILL UPON OUR ENEMIES.
They have long been at war with us. It is time to go to WAR with them. TOTAL WAR. Just because it is a WAR by WORD, and not blood, does not make it any less of a war.
This is OUR Union
“IF WE CAN KEEP IT”
THIS IS UP TO US to:
“Throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”
The founders recognized there was one man who started it all, there was one man who was more responsible for this moment than any other: Samuel Adams. On August 1st, 1776, the day before the Continental Congress was to sign the Declaration, standing before the founders, Samuel Adams spoke these historic words:
“WE ARE now on this continent, to the astonishment of the world, three millions of souls united in one cause. We have large armies, well disciplined and appointed, with commanders inferior to none in military skill, and superior in activity and zeal. We are furnished with arsenals and stores beyond our most sanguine expectations, and foreign nations are waiting to crown our success by their alliances. There are instances of, I would say, an almost astonishing Providence in our favor; our success has staggered our enemies, and almost given faith to infidels; so we may truly say it is not our own arm which has saved us.
The hand of Heaven appears to have led us on to be, perhaps, humble instruments and means in the great providential dispensation, which is completing. We have fled from the political Sodom; let us not look back, lest we perish and become a monument of infamy and derision to the world. For can we ever expect more unanimity and a better preparation for defense; more infatuation of counsel among our enemies, and more valor and zeal among ourselves? The same force and resistance, which are sufficient to procure us our liberties will secure us a glorious independence and support us in the dignity of free, imperial states. We cannot suppose that our opposition has made a corrupt and dissipated nation more friendly to America, or created in them a greater respect for the rights of mankind. We can therefore expect a restoration and establishment of our privileges, and a compensation for the injuries we have received, from their want of power, from their fears, and not from their virtues. The unanimity and valor, which will effect an honorable peace, can render a future contest for our liberties unnecessary. He who has strength to chain down the wolf is a madman if he let him loose without drawing his teeth and paring his nails.
We have no other alternative than independence, or the most ignominious and galling servitude. The legions of our enemies thicken on our plains; desolation and death mark their bloody career; whilst the mangled corpses of our countrymen seem to cry out to us as a voice from Heaven.
Our union is now complete; our constitution composed, established, and approved. You are now the guardians of your own liberties. We may justly address you, as the decemviri did the Romans, and say: "Nothing that we propose can pass into a law without your consent. Be yourselves, O Americans, the authors of those laws on which your happiness depends."
You have now in the field armies sufficient to repel the whole force of your enemies and their base and mercenary auxiliaries. The hearts of your soldiers beat high with the spirit of freedom; they are animated with the justice of their cause, and while they grasp their swords can look up to Heaven for assistance. Your adversaries are composed of wretches who laugh at the rights of humanity, who turn religion into derision, and would, for higher wages, direct their swords against their leaders or their country. Go on, then, in your generous enterprise, with gratitude to Heaven for past, success, and confidence of it in the future. For my own part, I ask no greater blessing than to share with you the common danger and common glory. If I have a wish dearer to my soul than that my ashes may be mingled with those of a Warren and a Montgomery, it is that these American States may never cease to be free and independent.”
ONWARD
