More about my new favorite campaign resource- The Good Party! This article features screenshots from their introductory video "Theory for Change" found in the Good Party discord server!

The Good Party Declaration of Independence

I am working to secure the endorsement of the Good Party- a non-partisan organization (not a political party) endorsing non-partisan local, grassroots campaigns nationwide. In an email I received from Good Party, they report their mission is to "bring attention to and increase the viability of people-powered campaigns... that are running without the backing of a major party and funding from special interests."

Rap Government Lesson

If you've ever wondered what exactly a legislator "does" exactly... or maybe you never thought to ask? That's because they keep you distracted with the Presidential election, so you won't pay attention to the Houses of Congress and the Judicial Branches. This independent rap artist breaks it down for you just how important the state and federal senate and house of representative races are!

Are You Sick of the Two-Party System, Too?

Like most of you, I am sick of the political advertisements already, too. So I know I run the risk of annoying you by publishing this post about politics, but I promise you that you will have a hard time finding a post like this one.

Political Prisoners? In America?

by Edgar J. Steele The following publication was copied directly from The Lawful Path website. It is being shared here in accordance with the wishes of and within the legal parameters set by the author... for the purpose of bringing light to his realization, with the humble hope that we are able to put our differences aside and come together against those that seek to oppress us.

What Am I “Doing With My Life”

It has been awhile since I have written... It was an extended, unplanned hiatus that I am happy to announce I survived! It's been an intense inner journey with several major life events the past few months... And here is the update you have been waiting for...

My Email to the Sheriff

Check out this email I sent out to the Benton County Sheriff and his deputies, urging them to join the Campaign for Restoring Constitutional Sheriffs and take advantage of the free online courses offered by the National Liberty Alliance as part of their mission to SAVE AMERICA! We have stayed silent long enough- the time has come to stand together and fight for our freedoms!

The Law

When 2012 presidential candidate Ron Paul was asked in an interview which book he would most recommend people read above all others, he recommended this one. The Law was originally published as a pamphlet in 1850 by Frederic Bastiat (1801-1850). Bastiat wrote most of his work in the few years before and after the French Revolution of 1848. The Law is considered a classic and his ideas are still relevant today. The essay was published in French in 1850. This translation of The Law was done by Dean Russell of the foundation staff. His objective was an accurate rendering of Mr. Bastiat's words and ideas into twentieth century, idiomatic English.

Fake Laws, Fake Courts

We were taught growing up that we have inalienable rights here in the United States of America. One would hope that our elected officials serve with honesty and integrity, that judges uphold the oath the swore to uphold the Constitution, that police across the country are employed to protect and serve.... And unless you have dealt with the court system, you probably still do believe these things. Hate to tell ya, but you really should read more about how we have been grossly misled.

The Autarchic Creed

Autarchy. Pronounced "aw-tahr-key." Greek: αὐταρχία from autos "self" + arkhein "to rule." The term refers to a state of self-sufficiency and absolute sovereignty. The following work was copied directly from the sacred texts website, and it is not my original work.

What Are You Going To Do About It?

In case you missed it, mayor Bud Maynard "issued a request" for Vinton residents at the close of last week's city council meeting. But to clarify, his 'request' is actually a form of political gaslighting where he is attempting to shift the blame and intimidate us by threatening to cut city services. AND you definitely don't want to miss the comment I submitted on Vinton Today!

Techniques of Misdirection

There are several techniques for the control and manipulation of a internet forum no matter what, or who is on it. We will go over each technique and demonstrate that only a minimal number of operatives can be used to eventually and effectively gain a control of a 'uncontrolled forum. As found on the Daily Dialectics website

The Ten Stages of Genocide

Genocide is a process that develops in ten stages that are predictable but not inexorable. At each stage, preventive measures can stop it. The process is not linear. Stages occur simultaneously. Each stage is itself a process.
