The “clear message is to have this sort of chilling effect on communication between the government and platforms.”

After a federal judge issued a ruling ordering the federal government to stop “specifically flagging content or posts on social-media platforms and/or forwarding such to social-media companies urging, encouraging, pressuring, or inducing in any manner for removal, deletion, suppression, or reduction of content containing protected free speech.”

The lefty censorship lobby responded with pages of unhinged hysteria that failed to address the issue.

Not only do we have peak oil but also peak gold. So the world is facing a vicious  a cycle of increasing energy costs leading to higher costs of extracting precious metals and other commodities. 

This confirms that high inflation is here to stay, leading to higher interest rates and very high risk of debt defaults within the private and sovereign sectors. 

To hold US dollars is to hand your wealth to the state which is likely to either debase it, lose it, spend it, confiscate it or misappropriate it in any other way.  

Why would anyone trust a government like the US which currently is doing all of the above things. 

And don’t believe that the Euro will fare better.

The only way to be in control of your own money is to hold it in physical gold outside your country of residence in private vaults. 

The trust in the US and the dollar is now coming to an end after the confiscation of all Russian assets. Who would want to hold their assets under the control of a government what can just steal it at will. 

So we are not facing a dollar crisis. Instead, the dollar and its issuer is the crisis. No one who is worried about preserving his wealth would ever consider holding it in a crisis currency, controlled by a crisis government. 

I find it fascinating that the JP Morgan who has become a joint custodian of the GLD gold ETF is  planning to move the gold to Switzerland. This confirms my strong view that Switzerland will further strengthen its position as a major gold hub. Currently 70% of all the gold bars in the world are refined in Switzerland which also have more major private gold vaults than any other country. 

Also, as I discussed in a recent article, no central bank will want to hold its reserves in US dollars with to a capricious US government that can steel it at will. The only money that could mantle the role as a reserve asset as the dollar fades away is obviously gold.

Posting this report by Matt Braynard from Look Ahead America (LAA). It is an in-dept look into the errors and omissions of the 2020 Georgia Election Process. It is 21 pages and here is the synopsis.

Project History

In the days after the 2020 General Election, many concerned citizens and public figures, including President Trump, raised several questions about the integrity of the election. Given the close margins across many states, Matt Braynard and a team of researchers commenced the Voter Integrity Project (VIP) to run several experimental analyses. The team designed these analyses in such as was so as to determine if illegal ballots were cast and, if so, whether that number significantly impacted the outcome of the election.
The initial project ran as many as seven different procedures across six different states at a total cost of $591,436. Analyzing Georgia cost approximately one-sixth of that budget, or $98,573. This covered the cost of raw data, data processing, and various vendors and call centers that helped with the analysis.

The extremely compressed timeline to produce results for use in both litigation and legislative hearings, and also for statewide officials responsible for administering elections and investigating voter fraud, increased the difficulty of the challenge.

Despite providing results under extraordinarily difficult and unique circumstances, our initial results never received a fair hearing in a court of law nor did any elected official thoroughly examine our work, and so the deadlines passed. Now under the aegis of Look Ahead America (LAA) and leadership of Braynard, Research Director Ian Camacho oversaw forty highly-trained volunteers known as The LAA Research Group who further examined the initial finds of the Voter Integrity Project.

This report provides the results of the initial and subsequent investigations.

What can I, an ordinary American add to this great oration? I can add that, “Yes, I am willing to give my time, treasure and loyalty to OUR REPUBLIC. I am willing to stand in the way of the loony leftist push to “digitally assassinate” us. To put a stop to the gaslighting of us to believe that somehow we are the bad people and the radical leftist are the answer.

“A nation isn’t just a random group of people who happen to be in the same place at the same time. It has laws and borders and values. And it isn’t born, it is made,” he explained. “The people who made America in the first place were a group of a little more than 2,000 patriots who crossed an icy Delaware River on Christmas night in 1776. They were down to the end, ravaged by a hard winter, deserted by friends, looking like just one more pathetic colonial rebellion put down by the mightiest empire in the world. And then Thomas Paine published the American crisis.”

The continued mantra coming from the so-called Democratic Party has turned into blah, blah, blah.

By the monotonous tone of the “left of center news media”, the lies and innuendos continue, to the point of appearing to be truth. That being said, “Telling a lie for long enough, it becomes truth”.

Take for instance the gorilla in the room, the Oath Keepers. When you take the cover off the box and take an unbiased look inside, what do you see? You see men and women whom love their country. Men and women whom continue to “Honor the Sacred Oath” they swore when first entering the service. Offering their service to provide relief efforts for others that have been flooded out, displaced by hurricanes and tornadoes. Members that step up and donate their time and treasure to facilitate relief efforts to provide food and other necessities to those displaced by disaster.

The lie is that Oath Keepers are a right wing militia. That we are some violent group of former and currently serving law enforcement, military, fire fighters and other first responders, ready to over throw the government that we serve, that we are a group of white supremacist trouble makers. This is so distant from the truth that it is laughable.

Our code of conduct and our bylaws state the opposite of these so-called disclosures that come from the likes of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), an official sounding group that is no more than a front for those that which to shape the progressive narrative for all Americans to live by.

I encourage those swayed by the continual drone of the “left of center news media” to do your own due diligence. Seek and you shall find truth. Do not be fooled by the continual drool of this mantra of hate.

A POLITICO analysis of the Capitol riot-related cases shows that almost a quarter of the more than 230 defendants formally and publicly charged so far face only misdemeanors.

Source: ConsevativeHQ

Dozens of those arrested are awaiting formal charges, even as new cases are being unsealed nearly every day. In recent days, judges, prosecutors and defense attorneys have all indicated that they expect few of the alleged “MAGA tourists” to face harsh sentences.

POLITICO’s Josh Gerstein and Kyle Cheney report there are two main reasons for this big letdown for Democrats like Speaker Pelosi, Rep. Swalwell and Rep. Ayana Presley: Although prosecutors have loaded up their charging documents with language about the existential threat of the insurrection to the republic, the actions of many of the individual rioters often boiled down to trespassing. And judges have wrestled with how aggressively to lump those cases in with those of what Gerstein and Cheney call “the more sinister suspects.”

Now here are two key bits of Gerstein and Cheney’s reporting:

“My bet is a lot of these cases will get resolved and probably without prison time or jail time,” said Erica Hashimoto, a former federal public defender who is now a law professor at Georgetown. “One of the core values of this country is that we can protest if we disagree with our government. Of course, some protests involve criminal acts, but as long as the people who are trying to express their view do not engage in violence, misdemeanors may be more appropriate than felonies.”

And further:

There are also sensitive issues about precedent for the future, given the frequency of politically inspired demonstrations on Capitol Hill that run afoul of the law.

While violent assaults in the Capitol are rare, protests and acts of civil disobedience — such as disrupting congressional hearings or even House and Senate floor sessions, are more common. That means prosecutors and judges will have to weigh how much more punishment a Trump supporter who invaded the Capitol during the Electoral College count deserves than, say, an anti-war protester chanting at a CIA confirmation hearing or a gun-control advocate shouting in the middle of the State of the Union address.

For some reason Messrs. Gerstein and Cheney left out the occupation of the Hart Senate Office Building by those opposed to the confirmation of now-Associate Justice of the Supreme Court Brett Kavanaugh, but you get the picture: Leftist do this kind of stuff all the time – it just doesn’t get the same breathless treatment by the press and Democrats don’t panic about it because they know those insurrectionists are on their side.

There have been some 300+ people arrested in connection with the January 6 riot at the US Capitol, a few of the arrestees were caught on video or still cameras breaching police lines, breaking into to the Capitol or fighting with police, but many, including such notable pro-Trump activists as Brandon Straka and Dr. Simone Gold, did not commit any violent acts and were arrested for simply entering the Capitol without authorization.

And, as we documented in our article “The Political Persecution Of The Oath Keepers,” there is another class of arrestees that federal authorities have pursued with particular vengeance; the Oath Keepers.

The Oath Keepers are described in FBI documents and establishment media coverage as a “rightwing militia,” but an unbiased look at who and what they are reveals something far different and a lot less threatening – they are people of modest means who love their country and want to continue to use their training in service to it.

What binds them together, and also apparently makes them so threatening to the illegitimate regime currently occupying Washington DC, is their former or present service in the US military, police, fire and other first responder-type services.

This combination of tactical training and allegiance to the Constitution as written checks all the boxes of Leftwing Democrat paranoia about the terrorist potential of returning veterans that goes back at least to the days when Janet Reno was Attorney General under Bill Clinton.

And it has made the Oath Keepers who were in Washington DC on January 6, 2021 a hunted community within their own country.

The fate of two Oath Keepers, retired Army Sgt. Kenneth Harrelson of Florida and wounded Iraq War veteran Joshua James of Alabama, are illustrative of the what’s being done to these patriots.

Both have been arrested and face multiple felony charges, even though when Mr. James’ public defender asked, “Was Mr. James seen with these people exhibiting aggressive behavior?” The FBI Response was, “No he was not.”

Mr. James’ crime that day was, according to the FBI, was having an Oath Keepers logo on his hat and having his cellphone ping off a tower near the Capitol.

Joshua James, recipient of the Purple Heart, sole bread winner for his wife and three young children remains in custody in Alabama pending being transferred to Washington DC for trial.

The fate of retired Army Sgt. Kenneth Harrelson is similar.

Mr. Harrelson, who was retired out of the Army on 100% disability, was arrested last week and is currently being held in jail for attending the January 6th protests in Washington DC. The Gateway Pundit reports the feds were planning to move him to Washington DC for trial.

The probable cause affidavit for charging Harrelson says he is a co-conspirator along with Jessica Watkins, Donovan Crowl, Thomas Caldwell [covered in our article Free Thomas Caldwell. Now.], Sandra Parker, Bennie Parker, Graydon Young, Laura Steele, Kelly Meggs and Connie Meggs. They were charged separately by a federal grand jury on Feb. 19.

Mr. Harrelson’s apparent crime was talking and interacting with other Oath Keepers who were part of the now famous “stack” that forced its way through the crowd and into the Capitol as photographs introduced by the FBI prove he was not part of the “stack.”

After his arrest, his wife Angel was fired from her job and Harrelson’s bank account was frozen, leaving the family with no income. As Mrs. Harrelson explained, in the FBI’s affidavit justifying Mr. Harrelson’s arrest there was “mention of Go To Meetings that Kenneth participated in. The discussions that took place on those calls were about things the members could do to protect people from harm, specifically from violent ANTIFA. There was no conspiracy to harm anyone, only to protect people. The Oath Keepers have spent the past few months discussing ways to keep their communities informed about the violent activities of the BLM and ANTIFA groups, and also prepared to defend their neighborhoods and homes from invasion by those often violent, extremists.

On Monday, federal Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui said the prosecution needs to pick up the pace of resolving the January 6-related cases.

“Let’s get it going,” Faruqui said during back-to-back hearings on Capitol cases. “There is, continues to percolate here in the courthouse, concerns about things moving.”

The most equitable way the prosecution could begin to meet Magistrate Faruqui’s demand would be to dismiss the charges against retired Army Sgt. Kenneth Harrelson of Florida and wounded Iraq War veteran Joshua James of Alabama.

There have been some 300+ people arrested in connection with the January 6 riot at the US Capitol, a few of the arrestees were caught on video or still cameras breaching police lines, breaking into to the Capitol or fighting with police, but many, including such notable pro-Trump activists as Brandon Straka and Dr. Simone Gold, did not commit any violent acts and were arrested for simply entering the Capitol without authorization.

And then there is another class of arrestees that federal authorities have pursued with particular vengeance; the Oath Keepers.

New legislation would mandate that the State of North Dakota ignore executive orders coming from the Biden administration that are unconstitutional

Republican legislators in North Dakota are taking a pro-active – and constitutional – step to push back against unconstitutional executive orders coming out of the Biden administration, and they are doing so with the power of the US Constitution in their corner.

The United States Constitution’s Supremacy Clause enjoins each state to follow laws that are constitutionally sound and only on issues that the Constitution granted purview to the federal government to determine.

If the federal government – be it the Executive, Legislative, or the Judicial Branch – acts unconstitutionally, the individual states have a right to ignore the transgressing edict. This notion was championed by none other than the great champion of strong central government, Alexander Hamilton, in Federalist No. 33.
