We need a new Boston Tea Party…but for electronics. Unlike the Founding Fathers, we’re not being controlled by one senile asshole across the Atlantic. We’re being controlled by a cadre of home-grown assholes, through electronic devices that surround our lives, control our lives, ruin our lives. I’m not simply anti-technology. Some technology is good. Some … Read more

Apparently they think of us, our children, the planet, all resources as something they can use and … Read more
Brave Americans are risking peace of mind to search through the Epstein videos and the files. We have to look or this will never be stopped. You can bet it is ongoing in some better hidden place. There is a standing wave of unconsciousness world-wide that made space for this to happen. The spiritual enemy … Read more

There was a little drive-through wanna-be ice cream parlor called T.C.B.Y. right off the main drag in my hometown.
