The Tenth Amendment Center – by William J. Watkins, Jr.

Excerpted from an  article which appeared in the Winter 1999 issue of The Independent Review

Working in complete secrecy, Jefferson drafted the Kentucky resolution of 1798 between 21 July and 26 October 1798. His original plan was for W. C. Nicholas to introduce the Resolves in North Carolina, but because of political setbacks there, Nicholas instead gave the Resolves to John Breckinridge for introduction in Kentucky. As an independent-minded frontier state, Kentucky was the perfect forum for Jefferson’s resolution. Across the state, without much prompting, citizens gathered to protest the Alien and Sedition Acts. In Lexington, five thousand people — a crowd three times the town’s population — assembled.   Continue reading “Resolutions of 1798: Guideposts of Limited Government”

The national news media haven’t discovered it, but the issue that is bringing out hundreds of citizens who never before attended political meetings is Common Core (CC). More precisely, it is the attempt of Barack Obama’s Department of Education to force all states and schools to adopt specified national education standards for each grade level that will dictate what all kids learn and don’t learn.   Continue reading “Education Dictates More Like ‘Communism Core’”

New America Now – by Joe Marshall

I have seen the story below on multiple forums and posts. I have spent some time trying to verify the source of the story, but so far I have been unable to find the original source. (Though it may be an excerpt from Selco at the SHTFschool.com)

Even though I cannot verify the facts in this story, it is still very much worth the read.   Continue reading “One Year In Hell…Lessons From A Societal Collapse”

On 4 April, 2013, Arkansas HB1700 became ACT 746. The revised law will not go into effect until late July or early August of this year.

The bill makes a definition change in the statute that has been interpreted to limit the legal carrying of weapons in Arkansas.

The original language was this:

A person commits the offense of carrying a weapon if he or she possesses a handgun, knife, or club on or about his or her person, in a vehicle occupied by him or her, or otherwise readily available for use with a purpose to employ the handgun, knife, or club as a weapon against a person.   Continue reading “Constitutional Carry will be the Law in Arkansas”

The quick progress of the ‘shale revolution’ in the US is set to reshape the world energy market by 2018, when OPEC becomes less influential and developing countries drive global demand.

The US shale oil will meet most of the demand from across the world in the next five years, even if it goes into ‘recovery motion’. The developing economies outside OECD, such as BRICS countries and Saudi Arabia, that’ll be driving increased demand.   Continue reading “US shale oil boom will make OPEC voice smaller in energy market- IEA”

Shenandoah – by John Galt

There is this running theory in politics and business that if one works within the Kissinger-Rockefeller sphere of influence, that lucky soul has immunity from any event as long as the individual continues to work for the benefit of the greater globalist financial cabal. Apparently the Teflon coating is still quite intact and functional for the former Secretary of the Treasury as the scandals which happened under his watch continue to explode with fresh headlines on the front pages of newspapers and the internet on a daily basis.   Continue reading “The Rat Who Keeps Escaping Every Scandal”

In South Carolina, an effort is currently underway to nullify Obamacare.  The tip of the spear nationally,H3101 introduced by Representative Bill Chumley won’t totally collapse the federal act in one fell swoop. But if passed into state laws there, it will mark the beginning of the end for Obamacare if other states follow South Carolina’s lead.

This bill is so good that the George Soros-funded ThinkProgress.org has been attacking it as “an insidious new form of Obamacare nullification.”   Continue reading “South Carolina: Following James Madison’s Advice to Nullify Obamacare”

Colorado Springs, CO, May14, 2013, Basic Freedom Defense Fund (BFDF) A Colorado grassroots group is heading the recall of State Senate President John Morse (D) Colorado Springs, for his “…aggressive attacks and for actively leading legislating against the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights”–Anthony Garcia, BFDF spokesman. (www.bfdf.org)

According to Garcia–”Personnel working for BFDF to help collect signatures for Senator Morse’s recall were the subject of known erroneous radio attack ads for the Morse political machine headed by Ed Hall, Chairman of the Denver Democrats and the filing agent for a recently established Morse anti-recall group called “A Whole Lot of People for John Morse.”   Continue reading “Recall of Anti-Second Amendment Colorado Senate President John Morse Gets Real Traction”

Kansas recently passed legislation designed to preempt confiscation of firearms under federal law, which, said state legislation declares as unconstitutional.  The Kansas legislation even goes so far as to say that zero infringement on the 2^nd Article of the Bill of Rights is the standard in reference to any and all firearms manufactured within its sovereign territory.

Other states such as Missouri have passed similar legislation which is now the law in those sovereign states.  So, are the pro 2^nd Article states making the appropriate moves to put the communist insurgency in checkmate in reference to the right of we the people to own and bear arms?  Well, not quite.    Continue reading “Washington Scandals Smoke Screen for Gun Confiscation”

Have you ever read about a survival scenario where a kidnapping victim, a forgotten prisoner,  or lost hiker was forced to choke down insects in order to survive?  Did it sound repulsive? Demeaning? Even sub-human?

There are many signs of gangster state America. One is the collusion between federal authorities and banksters in a criminal conspiracy to rig the markets for gold and silver.

My explanation that the sudden appearance of an unprecedented 400 ton short sale of gold on the COMEX in April was a manipulation designed to protect the dollar from the Federal Reserve’s quantitative easing policy has found acceptance among gold investors and hedge fund managers.    Continue reading “Gangster State America”

Man-made chemicals in everyday products are likely to be at least the partial cause of a global surge in birth deformities, hormonal cancers and psychiatric diseases, a U.N.-sponsored research team reported on Tuesday.

These substances, dubbed EDCs, could also be linked to a decline in the human male sperm count and female fertility, to an increase in once-rare childhood cancers and to the disappearance of some animal species, they said.   Continue reading “UN Study Links Man-Made Chemicals to Common Diseases”
