We're not going to get communism out of America until we get it out of the school system. De-unionization is absolutely essential.

Also, we need depoliticization at the university/college Schools of Education. It's there that the

"teachers" are indoctrinated. Probably, degrees in education should be done away with. The return to "normal schools" where teaching methods were taught where dogma was not taught.

It would be far easier for states to drop an education degree as a hiring qualification and employ people with demonstrated expertise in both the subject matter they would teach and the ability to control a classroom full of kids.

School choice only works if there are non-union choices.

They have overstepped, shoving at us covid with lockdowns, covid vaxes, censorship, transgender ideology, critical race theory, jailing their opponents, millions of illegal aliens, and much more, within a short period of time. Many more people than ever before realize there is no use trying to reform the institutions and are trying to create their own alternatives, in medicine, education, etc., as conservatives have done over the years with the media. Whether these efforts can overcome remains to be seen.

FDR's expansion of the administrative state was a plain and simple end run around constitutional checks and balances. Its agencies and regulations are an unconstitutional delegation...no abdication...of governmental power. Oversight is a myth. When agency heads are called to account...FBI, Homeland Security, IRS...they dodge. Dismantle them all.

Great piece!! So helpful that you were in “the belly of the beast”. They hate America and Western culture. They hate Christianity. It is a war and we must engage. The Byzantine administrative state is a feature for them, not a bug.

"The biggest trick that the communists have performed is to make us think they do not exist."

Yep, just like the devil.

They advance on every front, every day, all day, like rust.

But, the 'anti-communist,' that is the real threat!

I always say Senator "Tailgunner Joe" McCarthy wasn't 100% correct, he was 500% correct.

Proved by Verona, released early 90s, and THEY KNEW THEN! In the Senator's time!

If that is not proof we were completely penetrated and subverted in the early 50s, actually sooner because the Russians found out about Verona in 1949, then what is?

Yet all this is ignored, "Over" the scholars say, "Communism is dead," they go on!

MADNESS! MADNESS! MADNESS!

If you don't know where you started from, how can you plot a course to where you want to be?

Just read “Stalin’s war”. Amazing. The Roosevelt admin was riddled with communists and fellow travelers. Preferential treatment was given to USSR over America and American armed forces. Treasonous.

Diana West got viciously attacked for her documentation in "American Betrayal."

And then, years later, to find a picture of FDRs "Soviet Man HH" @ Yalta spending the night on the Soviet train the last night of the historic meeting just stunned me! On the website of his former Alma Mater! In 2015 (or so)!

Search the above phrase in brackets separately on first Google, and then the now compromised DuckDuckGo.

I used to belong to a small town chapter of the Green Party. I was literally the only person at meetings, who worked in the private sector. Everyone else, without exception, worked for the government, especially as teachers and librarians. When 9/11 happened, there was no mourning or shock at all, everyone was happy, blamed America, and spent the whole meeting brainstorming how to use it to increase membership and influence. I left and registered Republican, not a solution, but just pointing out that these people hate you and are teachers and librarians.

I spend a lot of time in rural country, I am a long time gardener and wilderness lover, I see how over-regulation has driven people off the land and polluted the soil and waters, and has disempowered people and empowered corporations, and I have also seen a collapse in pollinators and bird numbers. Not a few species but most species.

So on the one hand we have the left, with their made up climate crisis which is nothing more than a power grab and a wholesale destruction of civilization, and on the other hand, a reactionary right that seems to think because the climate crisis is BS that there is no ecological crisis.

I do agree with you, though that dismantling the administrative state is vastly preferable to dismantling civilization, and would be regenerative.

Industrial logging etc., was primitive I agree, but we have so many more processes now by which land can get regenerated. Just look at the tailing ponds at the Oil Sands, filled with ducks and water species. On my rural property we have “saved” the habitat of two bluelisted species, cleared invasives, and increased biodiversity. The obvious next step for humanity.

I just sold my house in Minneapolis, a 60'x120' lot, with twenty fruit trees and 200+ species of plants and mushrooms. I am now living part time in one of the least populated areas in central Minnesota on 80 acre. I plan on doing there what I did to the city lot, clearing invasives and eventually increasing biodiversity 10x's. I'm writing about in on my substack and will be documenting the process.

The people who bought my house claimed they wanted the garden. They kept the fruit trees, but used the raised garden beds to fill in the pond and nuked the rest.

Marxism = Bolshevism = Communism = Socialism = Satanism

The link between Marxism and Satanism has been well documented in "The Devil and Karl Marx: Communism's Long March of Death, Deception, and Infiltration" by Paul Kengor

Follow the stolen money and it will lead you to the Deep State, globalists, the BIS, IMF, UN, WEF, Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, the puppets like Trudeau installed in just about all western countries, etc., that are merely the visible face of the International Criminal Banking Syndicate. Below is a quote from Tragedy and Hope, a book published in 1975 by Deep State insider Professor Carroll Quigley who was given two years of access to CFR documents. A feudalist world order has been long in the planning and is now out in the open with the Great Reset/Build Back Better/Agenda 2030 and "you will own nothing but be happy" living as monitored slaves feasting on insects. They don't try to hide their diabolical plans anymore. But where is the outrage after the mass killing by the COVID bioweapon injections that total an estimated 20 million people world-wide and counting? Why are there not millions marching on Ottawa and every capital in the western world? Where has all the courage gone? How did we become a nation of spineless cowards who are prepared to go quietly into that dark night?

“The powers of financial capitalism had a far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences.”

Great insights and exposure of the enemies of the people and Constitution of the United States who walk among us...on the left, the progressive/Communist/Marxist side of our society. But there is another large, powerful body politic on our right who are enemies of the people and Constitution of the United States who walk among us: Fascists/Oligarchs. Any discussion of the enemies of the people and Constitution of the US that ignores this powerful body does so at our great peril. Because it is those who we do NotSee who can do the gravest damage to us.

Have you ever wondered why Republicans who get in power never seem to undo the freedom-sapping policies of the Democrats? Why they campaign on repealing encroachments on liberty like Obamacare, and balancing the budget, but then when given full power never follow through? Do you think they are really just weak? Or could they be in on it?

Remember the Citizen's United decision that Republicans were primed to support, so, you know, free enterprise businesses allowed to compete against those big labor pockets in political campaigns? Republicans deserved to have big money weigh in on their side, right?!?! How's that working out now that Big Pharma, Big Tech, Big Media, Multinational corporations have all thrown in with pandemic authoritarianism, collaboration with foreign governments, censorship of unapproved speech, vax mandates, energy and food shortages to "combat climate change," trans genital mutilation of children, etc? Just like Obama warned us in his 2010 State of the Union speech:

https://youtu.be/8v-rJb8G15I

Wouldn't be the first time American big business teamed up with government against free people in the US and around the world. There's a word for that Mussolini embraced, called Fascism. Perfect form of government, he said. Many American business, media and political leaders agreed:

"Some of the primary and more famous Americans and companies that were involved with the fascist regimes of Europe are: William Randolph Hearst, Joseph Kennedy (JFK's father), Charles Lindbergh, John Rockefeller, Andrew Mellon (head of Alcoa, banker, and Secretary of Treasury), DuPont, General Motors, Standard Oil (now Exxon), Ford, ITT, Allen Dulles (later head of the CIA), Prescott Bush, National City Bank, and General Electric."

"The following is excerpted from a report printed by the United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary in 1974:

The activities of General Motors, Ford and Chrysler prior to and during World War II...are instructive. At that time, these three firms dominated motor vehicle production in both the United States and Germany. Due to its mass production capabilities, automobile manufacturing is one of the most crucial industries with respect to national defense. As a result, these firms retained the economic and political power to affect the shape of governmental relations both within and between these nations in a manner which maximized corporate global profits. In short, they were private governments unaccountable to the citizens of any country yet possessing tremendous influence over the course of war and peace in the world. The substantial contribution of these firms to the American war effort in terms of tanks, aircraft components, and other military equipment is widely acknowledged. Less well known are the simultaneous contributions of their foreign subsidiaries to the Axis Powers. In sum, they maximized profits by supplying both sides with the materiel needed to conduct the war."

"In 1940 Graeme K. Howard, Vice President of General Motors, published America and a New World Order, in which he advised that America give full cooperation to the Nazi regime. In his book he blames FDR for causing the war in Europe and goes on to say that the fascists should be supported as the better alternative to the spread of Communism."

"Important information about the ties between American businessmen and the fascist powers of Europe was communicated to FDR by the American Ambassador to Germany during the 1930s, William E. Dodd. His writings on the matter are of critical importance. He wrote about connections between Hearst and the Nazis as well as Hearst and the Italians, in addition to Nazi connections with other wealthy Americans.

"A clique of U.S. industrialists is hell-bent to bring a fascist state to supplant our democratic government and is working closely with the fascist regime in Germany and Italy. I have had plenty of opportunity in my post in Berlin to witness how close some of our American ruling families are to the Nazi regime. . . . "

"Certain American industrialists had a great deal to do with bringing fascist regimes into being in both Germany and Italy. They extended aid to help Fascism occupy the seat of power, and they are helping to keep it there."

- William E. Dodd, U.S. Ambassador to Germany, 1937

But, but, Fascists and Communists hate each other. Antifascists hate Nazi's and Fascists, Fascists hate Marxists, commies, right? Hitler and Stalin were enemies, of course. But not ideological enemies to the degree it resulted in war between the two. Egos and greed did that. Not ideologies. As evidenced by the Hitler-Stalin Pact and Secret Protocols. The ideologies actually had more in common than they did with western liberal democratic capitalism. From the Hitler-Stalin Pact Discussion:

"Both considered the democratic and capitalist states as their respective enemies."

"They had a very extensive exchange of views that included the expression of a common opposition to the capitalist democracies. It was now openly stated that a rapprochement between the two countries corresponded with the vital interests of both."

"Economically speaking both states were closer structurally than they were to the capitalist countries.

Ribbentrop noted in particular that both countries were, in fact, hostile to "capitalistic western democracies". Germany had economic four year plans. The Soviet Union had five year plans. Both maintained direct party and state control over the economic direction of their respective states. Germany still had private enterprise but the Nazi policy of Gleichschaltung ensured the primacy of the state in economic matters."

"Don't you think that we have to pay a little more attention to public opinion in our countries? For many years now we have been pouring buckets of slop over each other's heads and our propaganda boys could never do enough in that direction; and now all of a sudden are we to make our peoples believe that all is forgotten and forgiven? Things don 't work so fast. Public opinion in our country, and probably in Germany too, will have to be prepared slowly for the change in our relations this treaty is to bring about, and it will have ta be made familiar with it."

"Because of the results of the war and the "Manhattan Project", the United States took over the position held by Gerrnany."

Sure, changing government systems that eradicate freedom and opposition causes disruption. But hey, can't make an omelet without cracking a few eggs (skulls):

"Describing the Communist plan to “liquidate” the five million kulaks, relatively well-off farmers opposed to the Soviet collectivization of agriculture, Duranty wrote in 1931, for example: “Must all of them and their families be physically abolished? Of course not – they must be ‘liquidated’ or melted in the hot fire of exile and labor into the proletarian mass.”"

"Even then, Duranty dismissed more diligent writers’ reports that people were starving. “Conditions are bad, but there is no famine,” he wrote in a dispatch from Moscow in March of 1933 describing the “mess” of collectivization. “But – to put it brutally – you can’t make an omelet without breaking eggs"

https://www.nytco.com/company/prizes-awards/new-york-times-statement-about-1932-pulitzer-prize-awarded-to-walter-duranty/

I believe that we must consider the likelihood that Fascists in the US, walking among us, unseen, embraced by Republicans and Patriots, championing the values of the America we love, all the while driving us into totalitarianism in league with the Marxists who also walk among us. We see and are used to squaring off against the Marxist left, but we do NotSee the Fascist threat in our own huddle.

These Fascists and Marxist have learned from history: Do not break the Pact until liberal democratic capitalism and freedom is extinguished. The deplorables. The bitter-clingers. Not just thought by Clinton and Obama. Also thought by McConnell, Bush, Cheney, Roberts, Romney, etc. Do you think the J6'ers are rotting years in jail without trial for trespassing just because Marxists in the Democratic party want them there? Trump's estate raided just because of the enemies on the left who walk among us? Most Fascist authoritarians in the GOP enforced and obeyed pandemic restrictions themselves. DeSantis one of the few who resisted early, the Fascist R's only joined pushbacks after his leadership to freedom made them vulnerable among their supporters.

We must know our enemies before we can defeat them. The half we see. And the half we do NotSee. Only then will our victory be decisive.
