Think back two hundred forty four years. Do you think the Revolutionary War was won by being complacent?
I don’t think so.
The men who created our Constitution put their whole life experience into that document. They not only considered their vision for what we know as the United States of America, but they also looked at the tyranny that they left behind in England. Our forefathers weren’t only creating a form of government, they were putting into action a force that couldn’t take down our great nation. The only thing they couldn’t foresee, is that the people they would give life and limb for would become complacent. I’m sure they never believed that could happen.
But it has.
Through the centuries we turned a blind eye to our Constitution. We handed over the keys to the country to the same people that terrorized the world for thousands of years.
What do you know about our Constitution? What do our schools teach our about it? When I was a child, we had to study the document. I remember my teacher assigning us the task of memorizing the “Preamble to the Constitution” and Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg address, among others. That was over forty years ago. Guess what. I still remember them. “We the people of the United States…”. “Four score seven years ago today…”.
I believe my teachers did us a great service, teaching us about our country. But one thing they failed to remember, or for other reasons intentionally omitted, was the fact that in 1871 our country was highjacked by a group that was out for blood.
We survived the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, and the Civil War, only to lose the Republic to a group of thugs who incorporated the UNITED STATES and created the Federal Reserve Banking system. Which by the way is not part of the United States of America. And another thing, the incorporation was specifically an illegal action according to our Constitution. I would argue that would make the Internal Revenue Service unconstitutional too (we’ll save that for another blog).
Are you surprised? Did you know that the united states of America was bankrupt in 1871. Did you know that those who we consider the one percent are the same people who committed this crime. Yes, that’s right. Talk about conspiracy.
Do I have your attention? I hope so. Come back next week and I’ll tell you more.

I stepped into the room and slowly approached her. The closer I got the more I could see her at her young age of four. She stiffened as I approached her. I slowed my pace even more but continued to move forward never taking my eyes off her small body. I stopped in front of her and kneeled on the floor. I didn’t want it to appear that I was overpowering her. I wanted her to see me as a friend, not another threat.
would bombard the internet, when the fake pandemic, fear mongering media pushed the narrative of masks and mandates. He knew the people would rise up and fight back with their words.
We have all taught our children not to talk to strangers. Don’t take candy from strangers and never get in the car of someone who offers you something or says they are bringing you to your mom. I think we can agree we have each used the lines I mentioned. 
Many of us, myself included often don’t think we have a voice. We don’t believe we will be heard as we stand up for a cause that can change the world. I may not be able to change the world, but today I’m taking my first step to what I can to help make a difference. I might not be able to change the world. You might not be able to change the world. But together, imagine what we can do. We are the light of the world. The many beacons that shine in the dark. Together we can shine; a great brilliant light that can cast out all darkness.
things as I remind myself that we should not take each other for granted. For tomorrow can bring a cold reality. I’m thankful that this will not be the case today or hopefully tomorrow, at least under these circumstances.
One of the resources I used when writing “The War Within” was “Operation Paperclip” written by Annie Jacobsen.
I pull the thin parka around me as my muscles tense up, my body’s reaction to the cold. My jaw gets tight as I try to keep my teeth from chattering while the wind whips through the street. It creeps in behind my neck, forcing its way down my back. I reach up and lift the collar of the coat, stretching it to reach my exposed ears as the cold air burns through my flesh. I’m torn between protecting my cold ears with the jacket and the desire to push my hands deep into the pockets to keep them warm. It’s no use. There is no relief. The cold is too much.
