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.

We explore real-life reformation here in this informed, online community.

IT IS ILLEGAL FOR FEMA TO INTERFERE IN ANY PRIVATE CIVILIAN RELIEF EFFORTS IN A DISASTER OR ANY OTHER TIME.

IT IS MANDATED TO ASSIST CIVILIANS.
FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) does not have a legal mandate to interfere in private civilian relief efforts. Instead, FEMA’s role is to coordinate and support federal disaster response and recovery efforts, working alongside state and local governments, as well as non-profit and private organizations.

FEMA can provide guidance and resources, but it typically encourages collaboration with civilian efforts rather than interference. If private organizations are operating within the law and are effective in their relief efforts, FEMA generally supports their work rather than intervening. However, there might be situations where coordination is necessary to ensure the safety and effectiveness of relief operations.

FEMA's legal role is defined by several statutes, primarily found in the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Public Law 93-288). This act outlines FEMA's responsibilities during disasters and emergencies, including how it can assist state and local governments.

Other relevant statutes include:
Homeland Security Act of 2002 - This act established the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), under which FEMA operates, and outlines the agency's broader responsibilities related to disaster management and national security.
National Response Framework (NRF) and National Incident Management System (NIMS) - While not statutes, these frameworks provide guidance on how federal, state, and local agencies, including FEMA, should coordinate disaster response efforts.

Various federal regulations and policies that further delineate FEMA’s role, including the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), particularly Title 44, which covers emergency management and assistance

Escape from New York

Starts today.

"According to a survey by JL Partners, roughly 765,000 New Yorkers—say they’re preparing to leave because of Mamdani’s election. Another 25%, or around 2.1 million, are considering it. Among high earners—those making over $250,000 a year—7% say they’re definitely fleeing.

"Why wouldn’t they? Mamdani has made it clear he views them as piggy banks. His entire platform is built on extracting their wealth and redistributing it. When you explicitly declare war on a segment of your population, that segment leaves.

"And those are the people funding everything. They’re the tax base. When they leave, revenue collapses—making it difficult, if not impossible, to fund the bloated social(ist) programs Mamdani promised. Then what? More taxes on whoever’s left. Which drives out more people. Which shrinks revenue even further.

"It’s a doom loop—and, again, entirely predictable.

"The end result is that New York’s going to end up looking a lot like the ...

Did Mamdani Cheat?

No.

He let the robots cheat...driving Mamdani’s fake social media engagement sky high, which the media turned into fake news that Mamdani was popular, liked, and a genius of a political leader driving a vast grassroots explosion of excitement for a true change agent.

Bot farms out of Pakistan and India flooded X with random promotion of Mamdani coming from fake accounts...suddenly ballooning into the tens and hundreds of thousands. This is not organic engagement by real New Yorkers, but manufactured hype driven by enemy foreign code-writers rigging a US election.

The New York Post is tracking the evidence:

According to analytics compiled from Mamdani’s social media accounts, reviewed by The Post, between June 1 and July 1, Mamdani’s Instagram followers jumped from 213,000 to nearly 3 million — a 1,295% surge — while TikTok grew more than 1,000%.

Was there cheating at the voting booth? It would have been unnecessary. Real immigrants came out to vote for the ...

Great and Frequent Wars

"All men of military genius are fond of centralization, which increases their strength; and all men of centralizing genius are fond of war, which compels nations to combine all their powers in the hands of the government. Thus the democratic tendency that leads men unceasingly to multiply the privileges of the state and to circumscribe the rights of private persons is much more rapid and constant among those democratic nations that are exposed by their position to great and frequent wars than among all others."
