DeWeese: The Scheme to Eliminate Private Property and Reorganize Human Society

“The moment the idea is admitted into society that property is not as sacred as the laws of God, and that there is not a force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence.” ~ Founding Father John Adams

John Adams, Patriot

Today, the very root of our nation’s freedom, prosperity, and private property ownership by individual citizens, is under attack across the nation. Eminent Domain is the weapon of choice to allow private corporations to simply take property at will under the excuse of the “common good.” Wind and solar farms, carbon capture pipelines, and massive AI data centers now cover vital farmland and private neighborhoods. The property owners are given no choice in the matter. It’s gone. How is that possible in a nation built on the very concept of private property ownership and protection?

For decades we have faced the globally organized juggernaut called “Sustainable” designed by powerful forces to completely change and control human society. However, from the very beginning of the plan our nation, which is based on the very concept of private property, has stood in the way.

Now, today, the tool every tyrant has ever dreamed of for complete control is in their hands – AI!

So, the train for control is ready to leave the station, but the way is blocked by those infernal property rights! What to do to allow tyranny to commence? Continue reading

Fighting for Election Integrity

In the fight for election integrity, Judicial Watch continues to notch voter-friendly victories across the country.

In California, Judicial Watch sued the state for failing to maintain accurate voter rolls – a requirement of the National Voter Registration Act. The law requires the removal of most inactive voter registrations after two general elections. The numbers are astonishing. The JW lawsuit charges that California failed to remove 873,000 inactive voters from their registration rolls who have been inactive for more than two general elections. Sometimes a lot more: tens of thousands of the registrations have been inactive for over ten years. The lawsuit was filed on behalf of the American Independent Party of California and Don Wagner, an elected member of the Orange County Board of Supervisors who is running for California Secretary of State.

The House of the Rising Sun — A Generation’s Lament from Vietnam

The House of the Rising Sun” — a ballad older than the United States itself, reimagined as a dark rock lament for a generation that came home different, or did not come home at all.

A haunting arrangement of the folk song that echoed across every American war of the 20th century — and became inseparable from the memory of Vietnam. Continue reading

Sophie Cunningham Slams “Dumb Data Centers” Threatening America’s Farmland

Sophie Cunningham has never been shy about speaking her mind. The Indiana Fever guard built her following on blunt honesty. Sometimes that means a bad foul call. Sometimes it means something far bigger than basketball.

On Thursday, Cunningham turned her attention to a fight playing out in rural America. She asked her followers a simple but pointed question about the farmland vanishing under a wave of new artificial intelligence construction.

So how do we save our farm land and stop all these dumb data centers,” Cunningham wrote on X. Continue reading

Granny’s Pharmacy Pharmaceutic ~ Lessons from Granny

PHARMACEU’TIC, PHARMACEU’TICAL, adjective [Gr. to practice witchcraft or use medicine; poison or medicine.] Pertaining to the knowledge or art of pharmacy, or to the art of preparing medicines.

‘Granny’ was an old friend and contributing columnist to the family of web-sites of Kettle Moraine Publications. Was she a pharmacist or pharmacologist? Absolutely not – but she was in her 80’s and had learned from a personal standpoint about the good and bad of that which is manipulated by the likes of BIG Pharma and those who they line the pockets of – our elected Congress official-DUMB and those in the Medical field who continue to buy into all of the nonsense of the sales pitch.

Was Granny to be a frequent columnist and continuing contributor – maybe – maybe not – but our purpose here today – is quite simple to understand. Remember after all – It’s YOUR Health – YOUR Choice! ~ Editor

The Bull Market’s Obituaries Are Now Being Written in the Mainstream Financial Media

Its death will be a public spectacle, the likes of which most people will have never seen!

More Wall Street experts have crossed to my side of the street and are speaking a truth that once could not be told. For a long time, nearly everyone said the very thing that is suddenly being widely predicted was impossible. It felt kind of lonely in the truth market a year ago, but now it’s getting crowded.

Smith: The Last Great Adventure

I did a good bit of reflection, as I churned out this piece, and decided that most people walk many a crooked mile before reaching the pinnacle point and the culmination of their life, and I suspect many a hard moments thought goes into shaping the people in America’s society who prove to be what the majority of Americans view as “successful”. But for me, it’s always been the case that what most would call “success”, I always saw as chains forged around my neck, ankles and wrists and a prison that made it hard to breathe.

Looking back in my mind’s eye, I recalled sitting on beach of Ft. San Lorenzo, drinking espresso and rolling sharks’ teeth in the palm of my hand, that I found in the shallows — sun drenched and considering a shot of whiskey later. And then I saw Deana’s [an old girlfriend] fine tight little ass as the church bells pealed on a Sunday morning, with ‘Sunday Morning Coming Down‘ playing in the background. I’m thinking of her legs, surfing the waves, and Jesus walking on the water — and the dark, chaotic night the birthed me, deep in the heart of nowhere in Ft. Riley, Kansas in 1957.

Life was full of intrigues, mysteries and adventures that only a young boy can find on his own, not too dissimilar from what one will find in Mark Twain’s ‘Adventures of Huck Finn‘. Continue reading

Ross: A Shortage of Freethinkers

Although this is often attributed to Albert Einstein, there is some debate as to whether or not he actually said the following, “Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school.” For the purpose of this essay it really isn’t important if Einstein actually said that or not; what is important is the truthfulness of the words. That brings up an interesting question though; If what Einstein (supposedly) said is true, then why do we bother sending our children off to school?

Good question; why indeed?

There is a reason why we are made to send our children off to public school for the formative years of their lives; and it isn’t to better prepare them for adulthood. I hope that by the time you finish reading this you will have a better understanding of how sinister that reason is. Continue reading

It’s More Than Opinion! ~ Rebuttal from an Angry Patriot

What you are about to read was written and published by yours truly in the first generation Federal Observer on the date posted below – nineteen years ahead of the curve. Ya’ can’t say that you weren’t warned! ~ J. Bennett, Publisher

January 1, 2002 – For many of us broadcasting on the alternative media – we have remained hard hitting on issues, which we believe are highly pertinent in our day and time. These issues include education, property rights, tyranny by government, government out of the control of the people, moral decay and rot, tax and sovereignty issues, a deeper drift into Socialism, the breakup of the family, protection of children and families, treason in high places of our government, cover-ups and conspiracies within the government itself, in addition to a sundry of other choice subjects. Predictably, many of us have been accused of being anti-government. In response to those accusations, I must say: To the best of our ability, we are reporting the truth. Are the people making these claims against us listening to us, and to our programs on a regular basis? Do they take a serious look at what we are reporting and is the information confirmable from other sources? Continue reading

Rich Man, Poor Man, Beggar Man, THIEF!

What you are about to read, takes me back to the year 2000, as I studied and compiled information and data for weeks in preparation for another of my lengthy broadcast marathons – one which in fact was eventually presented as an eight hour series. In addition to that, it was in fact a “Sequel” to a previous six-hour series, “All the King’s Men,” which told the TRUE story of the 1929 Stock Market Crash, which thrust America into the Great Depression.

The names you will learn about here may have changed (not all of them, for many of their descendants are still stirring the pots), and many of the businesses may be out of business or merged with others, but the beat goes on… and within the next sixty pages of the attached file, you will meet the most amazing cast of foul, evil characters who have ever existed in the past five-hundred years – and YOU are still paying the price. We all are – and we continue to pay the price as we will be managed and handled for eternity.

Who Will Win the Battle for America’s Future?

                                                                           That “goddamned piece of paper” – again

The claim that “nothing is fixed in place” isn’t a throw-away line. It’s a call for upheaval – to tear down the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.

President Donald Trump and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani each gave a speech in honor of America’s 250th birthday. If you removed the name, it’d have been difficult to guess they were talking about the same country. Continue reading

The United States’ 250-Year Experiment Has Come to an End

Re Jonathan Freedland’s column (I used to revere the great experiment that is the United States. After Trump, I’m not so sure, 3 July), there are two overwhelming horrors of the Trump presidency that have permanently altered the governance of the US.

First, paid officials of the state implement his orders with little question, because of the weird concept of the commander-in-chief, given more reverence than most religious leaders. There are no crazy military or political orders that will not be obeyed, though they might be rescinded at a later date by the courts – after the damage has been done. Continue reading

The U.S. Spent $30 Billion to Ditch Textbooks for Laptops and Tablets: The Result Is the First Generation Less Cognitively Capable Than Their Parents

In 2002, Maine became the first state to implement a statewide laptop program to some grade levels. Then-governor Angus King saw the program as a way to put the internet at the fingertips of more children, who would be able to immerse themselves in information.

By that fall, the Maine Learning Technology Initiative had distributed 17,000 Apple laptops to seventh graders across 243 middle schools. By 2016, those numbers had multiplied to 66,000 laptops and tablets distributed to Maine students. Continue reading

More Than Eight in 10 Americans Believe the Future of U.S. Democracy Is Under ‘Serious Threat

A survey by Pew Research Center conducted in December 2025 found that Americans were more pessimistic than optimistic about the country’s future. By: Aaron Burden/ Unsplash

More than eight in 10 Americans believe the future of U.S. democracy is under ‘serious threat,’ according to a new NPR/PBS News/Marist poll released as the country marks its 250th anniversary.

The survey found that 82% of Americans believe democracy faces a threat because of the issues dividing the nation, up from 78% in February. Just 17% said no such threat exists. Continue reading

Homeschooled Billie Eilish Blasted for Claiming Parents Who Send Kids to School ‘Lazy as F***‘ in Video

Billie Eilish has sparked a fresh wave of outrage after a resurfaced interview saw her slam parents who send their children to school as ‘lazy as f***.’

The 24-year-old Grammy winner is facing fierce backlash after the 2019 clip from Pitchfork’s Over/Under series began circulating online once again, with critics branding her comments ‘privileged’ and wildly out of touch.

The siblings have previously said their education centered on self-expression and allowed them the freedom to pursue music instead of following a traditional classroom curriculum.

But despite homeschooling remaining a relatively uncommon path – used by just 3.3 percent of K-12 students, according to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) – Eilish’s glowing endorsement quickly veered into far more controversial territory.

In the resurfaced interview, the Birds of a Feather singer argued that many parents send their children to school simply because they’re ‘lazy as f***’ – a remark that ignited a firestorm across social media. Continue reading

Hickman: The Next Phase of Shrinkflation… Rolling Blackouts

The lights went on at approximately 3pm on September 4, 1882 in New York City…

      Thomas Edison and Henry Ford

Thomas Edison (with major funding from JP Morgan) had spent roughly two years building the first-ever commercial power plant, located in Manhattan’s financial district. Its total capacity was about 600 kilowatts… barely enough to power a single rack of GPUs today.

But at the time it was nothing short of miraculous.

Edison’s coal-fired DC power plant initially served just 82 customers, and electricity was nothing more than a luxury flex by the ultra-wealthy.

But over time – especially after Westinghouse and Tesla’s alternating current became the gold standard – electrification rates in the United States skyrocketed. Continue reading
