Broken civilizations get rebuilt at the local community level as families, businesses, churches and small civil governments begin to learn what those local institutions can be. That is happening right now in the US, primarily in rural counties.

Never Disregard the Power of Silly Slogans, No Matter How Untrue

Back in the ’70s, school kids were taught to chant “It’s Only a Clump of Cells” to depersonalize a growing human child in the womb. The ‘70s kids came to believe that lie, and then use that slogan to justify aborting their own children as they became adults, parents, politicians, and voters. And then the lie was repeated for two generations.

Today the hot slogan is “No Human Being is Illegal!”

It is a popular virtue-signaling slogan, now being used to justify uncontrolled illegal immigration. If Biden tries to federalize and then control a sovereign state’s National Guard, he will need to enshrine that false slogan as truth to justify twisting Title 10, Section 333.

This law allows the president to federalize a state’s National Guard when “any part or class of its people” are “deprived of a right, privilege, immunity, or protection named in the Constitution and secured by law” when “the constituted authorities of that State are unable, fail, or refuse to protect that right, privilege, or immunity, or to give that protection.”

In this case, Biden would argue that illegal aliens, even though guilty of criminal acts, are a “class of its people,” which is to say they are American and Texas citizens and, further, that illegally crossing the border is a right “named in the Constitution and secured by law.”

This is how lies become the foundation of law. People first must believe the lies. Then weaponized courts codify the lies as truth. And then culture becomes death-culture.

So speak and so act as those who are to be judged by the law of liberty.

GK Chesterton on adultery:

"The revolt against vows has been carried in our day even to the extent of a revolt against the typical vow of marriage. It is most amusing to listen to the opponents of marriage on this subject. They appear to imagine that the ideal of constancy was a yoke mysteriously imposed on mankind by the devil, instead of being, as it is, a yoke consistently imposed by all lovers on themselves. They have invented a phrase, a phrase that is a black and white contradiction in two words - ‘free-love' - as if a lover ever had been, or ever could be, free.

"It is the nature of love to bind itself, and the institution of marriage merely paid the average man the compliment of taking him at his word. Modern sages offer to the lover, with an ill-favored grin, the largest liberties and the fullest irresponsibility; but they do not respect him as the old Church respected him; they do not write his oath upon the heavens, as the record of his highest moment. ...

Why Are So Many Americans Moving to the Southern Hemisphere?

Opinion by Lau Vegys:

America's problems aren't fixable with patriotic sentiment. They're mathematical realities that don't care about your flag-waving.

The national debt recently hit $37 trillion. By 2033—the same year Social Security's trust fund runs dry—we're looking at debt exceeding $50 trillion. Interest payments alone will consume nearly half of all tax revenue.

At that point, the Federal Reserve will have no choice but to print tens of trillions of dollars to bail out the Treasury. The resulting inflation will make the early 1980s look like a picnic.

And of course, as I mentioned in a recent piece, whether it's $37 trillion now or $50 trillion in about eight years, the headline number is just the tip of the iceberg.

Add it all up—Medicare, Social Security, federal pensions, and other off-the-books promises—and the real financial hole the U.S. government faces is closer to $150 trillion. That’s nearly $1 million per taxpayer.

None of These "Migrants" Were Listed in The Immigration Figures

The Guardian reports that 15,000 Afghans were relocated to the UK in a secret scheme, while Breitbart reported that nearly 24,000 Afghans were brought in, with the British government earmarking £7 billion to secretly house and import them.

The UK taxpayer has no choice but to pay up, while government transparency was lacking.

Whether all these Afghans were vetted remains unknown. Given the reputation of the UK along with many Western countries, the vetting process for migrants is nearly nonexistent, and highly questionable in this case in particular.

Also, in the spring of 2023, while Rishi Sunak was prime minister and many UK military families had no heat or hot water, the government continued to host illegal migrants in plush hotels, at the cost to taxpayers of $8.5 million USD a day and rising. And while homelessness was up over 27% in Britain, illegal, mostly Muslim migrants from the Middle East and Africa, were royally served in those plush hotels. Now it comes to light that in...
