Smith: American Patriots Must Restore America for Americans

Every red-blooded American patriot should be more alarmed than ever by what we are witnessing all across the nation today, this very minute, as communist candidates are winning elections for Congress and mayor seats, under the guise and the banner of the Democrat Socialists of America, while their foot soldiers of Antifa, Black Lives Matter and Islam remain in the streets assaulting, even murdering folks they think are conservative liberty-minded anti-communists. This has been going on since at least 2014, and those within the Democrat Party are complicit, giving a wink and a nod to the violent tactics of those “mostly peaceful” protests, or they cower in fear and are simply afraid to fight back against these communists, from a position that seeks to safeguard their own re-election hopes.
Whatever the case, the Democrat Party Communists are the largest threat America faces today. And they are winning elected seats in all levels of government, because far too many people in American today are enthralled by their message of “Free Stuff for Everybody” – and they either are too damned ignorant and effing dumb to understand that it comes at a great cost to one’s individual liberty, or they do understand and simply don’t care, because their desire for free stuff overrides their desire for freedom.

Dickens ~ The Blame Reflex: Denial, Distortion, and the Machinery of Modern Panic
“Denial ain’t just a river in Egypt.” ~ Mark Twain
Self Denial by Richard Cook
Denial is the mind’s way of refusing an uncomfortable reality in order to avoid anxiety, pain, or overwhelm. It can soften the blow in the short term, but over time it stalls growth, blocks necessary action, and deepens the very trouble it tries to keep at bay.
This article has been percolating for a while. This morning, it boiled over…. Continue reading
DeWeese – Warning! AI Data Center Promoters Are Lying to Stop Our Opposition!
Thousands of American citizens are rising up in opposition to AI data centers in their communities. Their actions are based completely on personal experience and concerns with how these huge facilities affect their lives and the culture of their communities. Thousands of acres of vital farmland are being put under roof affecting rural economies. Noise pollution caused by loud throbbing sounds from the equipment in the centers is disrupting once-peaceful neighborhoods. Massive water and electrical use to feed the centers is causing damage to power grids and local community needs.
Life is changing and people are upset. Continue reading
Smith: Rage, Rage Against the Long Dark Night and… Life Is No Gentle Ballad!
A song I recently “discovered” on TikTok, entitled ‘Alone’, had a theme of unimaginable acceptance of death and a defeatist attitude that made me hurt for the person who was so low in his life to even have thought to create such a song. It made me contemplate how many men and women might be in just such similar circumstances, that they view their daily lives as a burden and prefer to welcome death, as if finding a new friend.

Congress Is Preparing to Surrender American Sovereignty on the Eve of America’s 250th Anniversary
The United States Congress, on the very eve of the 250th anniversary of our Declaration of Independence from Great Britain, is preparing to formally diminish American independence and sovereignty through a proposed merger and long-term integration of executive functions throughout the government, coordinated by the Department of Defense.

The VA Just Added Hypertension, Hypothyroidism, and Monoclonal Gammopathy to the Agent Orange Presumptive List – Vietnam-Era Veterans Denied for These Can File Again Without Re-Proving Service Connection
A Vietnam veteran who developed high blood pressure years after returning from service used to face a brutal catch-22 when filing a VA disability claim: prove that herbicide sprayed in a jungle 50 years ago caused a condition that millions of Americans develop for other reasons. The medical evidence was nearly impossible to produce, and the VA denied claims like these for decades.
That changed when Congress added hypertension, hypothyroidism, and monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) to the VA’s presumptive list for Agent Orange exposure. Veterans who served in qualifying locations no longer need to establish a direct causal link between their diagnosis and herbicide contact. The VA now presumes the connection exists.
But the three conditions did not all arrive through the same law, and that distinction creates a split system that determines whether a previously denied veteran gets an automatic second look or has to refile on their own. Continue reading
Why Medevac Pilots ~ and Crews ~ Had the Most Terrifying Job in Vietnam
In Vietnam, Medevac pilots flew into places most people were trying to escape. Their job was simple on paper: get the wounded out. In reality, it meant flying low into active combat zones, landing under fire, and risking everything to save soldiers they often had never met.
This video looks at why Medevac pilots had one of the most terrifying jobs in the Vietnam War — from dangerous extractions and jungle landings to the constant pressure of flying missions where seconds meant life or death. Continue reading
Johnson ~ The New York Times Gerontocracy Scam: Brainwashing Youth to Hate Their Elders
Professor Dinky Dau
The New York Times recent;y published another masterclass in Marxist division. In a April 21, 2026 opinion piece, Yale professor Samuel Moyn argues that while ageism exists, America’s real problem is “gerontocracy.” Older Americans are supposedly “hoarding” wealth, power, housing, and opportunity at the expense of the young.
He calls for seniors to “give more” through forced downsizing, higher property taxes on long-term homeowners, mandatory retirement ages, and re-weighting political power toward younger voters.
This isn’t thoughtful analysis. It’s deliberate brainwashing aimed at college youth, designed to turn sons and daughters against their parents’ generation. It stokes jealousy and resentment where respect and gratitude should exist. And it follows a very old Marxist playbook. Continue reading
Smith: Young Americans Need Grit, Skill and… Self-Reliance!
Back when I was a younger man I used to outwork any two men – well, maybe not any. I did have a great friend, Irvin Harrell who’d go step for step with me on any given day of the week. But the amazing thing was that the older I got the more I saw young men who were doing half the work I used to do getting paid twice the money; by the time I hit 50, I could outwork any three – of what passed for men on any given day of the week.
Nowadays, we see these young guys wanting to pick and choose what they will or won’t do, while trying to get twice what they’re worth, always looking for the easy way out, rather than taking the first job they can find and working it as if they appreciated having a job, until they can do better.

Trump Tries to Kill First Reparations Program for Black Americans
So much for caring about states’ rights.
Evanston, Illinois – just blocks down the street where I worked in the early 1970’s ~ Editor
The Trump administration is trying to get rid of the first reparations program in the U.S. for Black Americans.
On Tuesday, the Department of Justice asked a judge to end the program in Evanston, Illinois, offering $25,000 to the descendants of the city’s Black residents who experienced housing discrimination between 1919 and 1969 due to city policies and ordinances. All residents who experienced housing discrimination in the city after 1969, regardless of race, also qualified for the program, which began in 2021. Continue reading
Marquardt: The Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men Often Go Awry ~ so, Think What Happens With Lesser Ones OR Read On!
For over 3O years, the federal government has been working to take control of a huge area of Northwest America via the Columbia River Basin plan. So, after all this time the “powers that be” in Montana and the federal government ignored the U.S. Constitution and approved the plan to remove said Constitution from a huge area of Montana (Washington and Idaho are a good part of it, also).
One might think that reviewing all the information — the many testimonies, studies by experts, and even old documents – they would have realized that, besides being unconstitutional and just plain wrong for the Montanans who live here, that the Columbia River Basin plan is bogus – a scheme to remove local control and another tactic in both fulfilling the bogus Wildland Project and stealing the property rights of good landowners some of whom have inherited from grand and great grandparents. And cared for those lands to this day.
But, if the Constitution was used as a marker, it ain’t found in that great document… Continue reading
Dickens: Democracy – It Ain’t What You Think….
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way – in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.” ~ Charles Dickens – opening paragraph from A Tale of Two Cities (1859) ~ Link to the book [Link]
A Tale of Two Cities, First-Edition, Rare (Estimated value $8,800.00)
A ‘A Tale of Two Cities’ is set during the French Revolution and explores its impact on ordinary people’s lives in London and Paris. At its core, it is a story of love, revenge, and ultimate self-sacrifice during one of history’s bloodiest eras. Written by legendary English author Charles Dickens and published in 1859, it is widely celebrated as one of the most famous and best-selling novels of all time.
It’s really interesting to read the opening paragraph with America in mind, rather than England and France, and to consider the impact of the two-party system’s intense political and social polarization on America. I find little love or self-sacrifice in Merka, yet the parallels are striking, almost as though Dickens saw our future; his novel was fictional and almost prophetic. And, oh, by the way, there was a lot going on in America at that time.
The opening paragraph of the book highlights the stark contradictions and social inequality of the late 18th century. Dickens uses opposites to show that the period leading up to the French Revolution was marked by conflict, passion, and uncertainty. It conveys the extreme polarization of opposing forces, with no middle ground amid near-total chaos.
Now, consider the parallel with modern America. Continue reading

Southern Poverty Law Center Paid for KKK Hoods and Cross Burnings
Greatest Hate Scam on Earth!
For generations, millions of Southern Poverty Law Center fundraising letters circulated around the country with pictures of Klansmen burning crosses on the envelope and begged donors for help in fighting the Klan. As it turns out those donors who contributed to the SPLC were paying for the crosses and the hoods as the Justice Department indictment of the organization reveals.
When the Justice Department first secured its case against the leftist organization, the SPLC contended that it had only been paying off informants as part of its effort to monitor hate groups, but the new superseding indictment now reveals that the money paid out had been used to fund rallies, open new chapters, create racist materials and even “purchase materials for cross burnings” and “purchase materials to make Ku Klux Klan robes and hoods”.
Incredibly, the SPLC reimbursed KKK members for “all expenses they incurred for cross-burning events to include the wood and fuel used.” Continue reading
DeWeese – AFFH: The Swamp Alligator That Must Be Removed!
June 5, 2026 ~For decades the federal department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has been a major player in the implementation and enforcement of Sustainable Development Smart Growth policy that is changing local community development into little more than social engineering.
In 2009, Barack Obama formed the Partnership for Sustainable Communities which resulted in the merging of the power, overreach, and money of HUD, the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The purpose was to strengthen the power of the federal government to push federal planning initiatives on local communities. Specifically, Obama wanted to force individual communities to adopt the government’s “Livability Principles.”
If they refused, they would face loss of grant money from these agencies. Continue reading
Dickens: The Broken Promise of Convenience, Computers, Compulsion, and the Failure of Modern Convenience
Technology was supposed to make life easier. Instead, it has made life faster, louder, more dependent, and, too often, more exhausting.
This may sound like another article about AI, but it is really about something older and larger. AI is simply the newest layer in a familiar story: each generation is promised that technology will simplify life, save time, and reduce friction. Lived experience often tells a different tale.
The title is deliberate. Convenience was the promise that accompanied modern technology: less effort, less delay, less friction. Yet what was presented as liberation has too often become the opposite – a system that consumes time, thins patience, and insinuates itself into nearly every corner of ordinary life. Continue reading
Smith: Humans for Humans
~ Introduction ~
Have you ever stopped mid-scroll and wondered how machines seem to understand you? From finishing your sentences to recommending exactly what you want to watch, it almost feels human – but there’s something deeper behind it all.
This new delve into the new monstrosity we know as Artificial Intelligence today is probably one of the most important matters a person can study and understand, if they hope to still be living free many years from today. It’s simply incredible the speed at which this administration is shoving America down the A.I. Road with so very little oversight and regardless of the fact that many millions of Americans reject it outright, or at the very least, they don’t want it in their backyard sucking up water, land and electric resources among many others.
The true test of any system does not come during abundance. It comes quietly. during the first season when there is not enough to go around.
America has already seen many rolling blackouts during periods of peak use of electricity in the summer and winter, and many areas of our country are already experiencing drought conditions for a variety of reasons, some of which is climate and a lot of it simply city expansions and water mismanagement, as witnessed all up and down the West Coast, in Arizona, Georgia and Nevada and elsewhere. Just imagine what happens when a new massive resource-sucking A.I. Processor Data Center is completed and starts functioning at peak capacity, as municipal boards, water authorities and grid managers increasingly spew phrases such as “load prioritization”, “non-interruptible industrial contracts”, and “contingency allocation protocols”.

Garrison: Andrew Jackson Would No Longer Recognize the Democrat Party He Helped Start
For years, the Democrats have pushed relentlessly toward the left. As a result, we now see outright communists in positions of power in major cities throughout the country.
In LA, Mayor Karen Bass is a big fan of Fidel Castro and she is in the process of stealing the election from a far more sensible challenger – Spencer Pratt. In most countries around the world, election ballots are counted in a matter of hours. In California, it can take weeks – thanks to mail in ballot absentee ballots abuse. It’s imperative to rein in election abuse in the US, but in Congress the Democrats (and some anti-Trump Republicans) don’t want the ’Save Act,’ which will help end the abuse Democrats employ at the ballot box.

Hickman: The Funky Math Behind How the US Economy Could Double in Size ~ Overnight!
It was September 2006 – roughly two years before the 2008 financial crisis annihilated much of the global economy. But Greece was already in deep trouble.
Unemployment was hovering around 9%. Youth unemployment was a staggering 25%. And government finances were in the toilet, with official debt-to-GDP at 100% and annual budget deficits at nearly 8% of GDP.
The deficit issue was especially troubling; as part of the Eurozone, Greece was legally obliged to keep its annual budget deficit below 3% of GDP. But the government was simply incapable of doing so… Continue reading
